Ok

If you haven't seen Jonathan they made Pinfire and centrefire cartridge Lemat revolvers

Very cool to see you cover the history of British firearms whereas Ian covered the history of French firearms. Hoping to make your book part of my collection!

Honestly dude, best Experts React series of any channel ever!

Truest thing I've seen all day

Yeah, that's pretty accurate.

Ooosh right in the feels.🤣

I never noticed this was on GameSpot lol!

Tbf if he just starting posting these on his own channel who knows if the algorithm would ever pick them up, however great they are 🤷‍♂️

Now if they could just update the Specter reload.

@@Bloodhurl67 late to the comment but genuine question, what's up with its reload?

Is Sparks the fictional, in game name of the Sharps?

@@visassess8607 yes

It's rare to see devs considering anyone to be an expert that the person is labelled as even if the label is true, and to Jonathan's credit he really is.

Yeah was fun to see game devs admitted the animation was dumb.

It fits the fiction, though. It aligns with Secondary Belief, which is basically how Tolkien describes his worldbuilding process/desire. The fictional world operates on its own set of rules, no matter how ludicrous, but must follow them exactly, else the illusion is broken. So, Hunt: Showdown exists in a world with magic and monsters, but firearms technology maintains basically what it is in the real world. This makes for a more enjoyable game, and is quite ludonarratively satisfying. Magic feels more magical, the player feels more skilled, and the monsters feel more dangerous.

@@tommyscott8511 God, what a nerd. And that is certainly why Tolkien is still the King of modern fantasy, also the reason my old DM had the most immersive campaigns. I think that's why I have such a liking of Bloodborne, there's just more focus on the cohesion of the world you're in, along with the lack of hand holding souls games are known for, it makes for a much better experience.

Wait for part 2

It's a p1879 artillery bayonet, not a sword. Edit: corrected bayonet model

@@colbunkmust How did you say sword and make it less cool

@@HeyItsAshuriGameplay Bayonet sounds cooler tbh Fix bayonets! vs. idk lmao, raise your swords?

@@fop3146 Calm down, you couldn't be more wrong

@@fop3146 If you're talking about quickswapping, you're wrong. Besides an uptick in dolch, which let's be honest a bunch of sweats ran already, the meta's well diversified and the playerbase, at least as of now, is growing. Long ammo dominance wasn't interesting, and if that's really what the game needed to exist, then frankly it doesn't deserve to.

@@fop3146 u can smell the quickswapper tears from here

Hes prolly talking about special ammo, explosive tracer and poison etc.. and i agree.

@@seanmartin3474 I considered that, but he said last update, and ammo hasn't dropped on live. Personally if that is it, I disagree. The ammo appears to have been introduced very conservatively. A few (like high velocity on bornheim and the officer carbine) are disconcerting, but can always be rebalanced. Other than those increased ammo scarcity helps balance them. Most of them are not good enough to lock yourself into special ammo for.

Yes!

The shambler more than anything imo

I find the bicycle gun cooler

THIS!!😆😆😆

Agreed. The buckshot LMG is the best LMG I’ve ever played with

Really

Very cool.

Yea that’s crazy it a absolutely beautiful firearm

It seems that Ian from Forgotten Weapons managed to make a short video with the only other one known to exist.

it's funny how the Royal Armory doesn't have a Colt 1872 but then they have a Treeby.

British humor at it's best

@@deathtrap5556 I hear Al Murray calling

That'd be awesome

He's gotta do Receiver 2.

Receiver 2 is amazing.

Bomblance needed! ;)

@GameSpot please?

thats where realism=fun, the derringer used to be super shit like in real life, now you can actually make it work.. somewhat

@@kekkadakeda9468 as a hunt player it's only good in pve setting off oil lanterns ect. In pvp players can shrug off headshots at range

@@gamiiee Hunt player myself dud:D you can use it in pvp to meme on dudes, I ve wiped trios with it by getting 2 insta headshots, back when it was worse dmg and headshot range wise even memeing it was super frustrateing cause you'd get a headshot on some guy not even halfway through the compound away and he'd still be standing

@@gamiiee its a nice backup for pvp imo, for example if you hit someone with romero but he is not dead you pull out the derringer and finish him off

@@gamiiee Sparks body shot: am I a joke to you?

Where can I watch that stream again?

They also show the animation for the Mosin Avtomat's automatic action as well xD

How's Alyx and Shephard?

@@aryabratsahoo7474 They.....aren't....I mean, they are in stasis, they themselfs don't know how they are....

Where's Freeman , sir ?

@@Fede0779 Dr. Freeman's dead, he's locked in my basement

In the newest Patch the developers actually implemented changes to the Sparks based on this video. Hunt has way more iconic and controversial weapons like the whole Winnie-Family, the Bornheim, the Dolch, the Lebel as you mentioned... I want a second part as well!

I second that!

I would also like to see more information on the Lebel rifle!

Yes totally bring us a part 2!! There's so many more guns to discuss!

Just checkout the KZfaq Channel Forgotten Weapons, he does technical breakdowns and histories of a ton of different firearms, he's kind of a Francophile, and the Lebel is a French gun so he goes pretty in depth with it

Definitely. The guns you've mentioned are very nicely portrayed, would've been nice get his opinion on how good it actually is, but some of the ones shown in the video are straight up botched or just funky and "hard to understand" for someone who doesn't know the game.

Oh and btw, it's funny that he has the "Winfield", or the Winchester 1873 on the table in the back throughout the whole video, but it wasn't even mentioned. Hopefully this means that there's indeed a second part coming. Maybe he just grabbed it because he thought that it for sure ought to be in the game and they didn't show it, lol.

There's so many to choose from it's difficult to select only a few

@@alexanderstreeter973 and yet they chose the most unhistirical ones which doesn’t give the game justice :/ Hunt actually treats their guns very good and true to their origins.

Check out this guys battlefield one video

If you are interested in the mechanics of firearms i highly recomend "Forgotten Weapons" the host there also is involved in Jonathans new book by the way.

@@Gameprojordan Well, he's working at a museum, I'd expect him to know this.

What would be the risk of being sued? I've seen games straight-up tell their name with no alterations (Receiver 2, for example) and I haven't heard of the associated companies being sued.

@@popcornegg4405 The risk is actually huge. See, to use a brand name, you actually need to have a commercial agreement with it. With lots, and I mean *lots* of paperwork, bipartite terms of condition and so on. Especially because, well, many companies don't want to be associated with games that may or may not depict something they're not really ok with (think of Spec Ops- The Line's main story with *realistic* use of White Phosphorus and thus display of gruesome, first degree civilian mass manslaughter. Not something Colt or Beretta would be ok with being associated with). Moreover, some games would actually use the brand name as an add or a partnership. So there's money to be made for the brand and the video game studio. And trust me, when a company can't make money off something they usually have full control on, they cannot be happy. Since the firearms manufacturers are very powerful entities in the business world, especially in the USA where most shooter games are made and thus where lawsuits would defenitely be issued, the risk for the video game editors are humongous. We're talking millions of dollar-grade kind of lawsuits, for unlawful use of brand name and brand identity, for commercial use. That doesnt mean a game cannot have brand names for their firearms. Call of Duty had famously made a deal with Remington Arms to display the Remington name and logo on their R5. I don't especially know Receiver 2 but I do note that it is a simulator based especially on (and I quote) " based on manufacturer schematics and gunsmithing resources", since I see the term "manufacturer" in their description, I can only guess they have a deal with those said manufacturers to exploit the brand names :)

@@popcornegg4405 because a small video game company going up to somebody huge like Heckler & Koch is pretty difficult

Or even with RDR2 and how the Pinkerton agency tried to sue the game makers for using their name in the game

A *cartridge* model does not exist, so you are not totally defeated

Neither did I think the Nagant pistol's sabo

You'd be surprised how many wacky inventions people came up with at some point, sometimes but just sometimes, what you see in fiction is somehow grounded in reality more or less, and that's something cool to consider :D

After watching enough of Gun Jesus's videos I'm not surprised by anything.

Oh yea there's some weird guns out there

THIS, he barely got into it, I wanna see him pull out an explosive whaling harpoon and compare :D

They should just give him a console or a PC and give him the game to just browse the in game lore and 3D modeling of the weapons etc

Agreed

this was the part 2 :P They did one like 2 years ago....

@@MoonLiteNite seems this isn't true. think you're confusing something. @PrdBlack this is what i thought too. And i guess if he'd played the game himself, he'd be pretty impressed by how accurate the authentic weapons are realized.

yeah also told him like zombies have like what 40hp? derringer is like 10-15 damage to hunters. and is mostly meant to fire barrels. or to finish people off. of fire other traps. also nitro works on zombies. no shit. i fire a zombie and he goes flying over the whole map. its like 200 damage. and its meant for pvp. hence u only get like 6 shots.

@@miciso666 Derringer's real purpose is to harvest salt.

nice reference ahah

lmao

Hunt is a bop of a game, it 100% deserves more attention

@@blacktiger974 well everyone had to start somewhere, keep playing. It's a big learning curve, but once u understand more about the game and start wiping servers, you're gonna love it.

@@blacktiger974 honestly yeah it's got a huge learning curve. I don't want to comment too hard as I obviously don't know what happened, but everyone kind of agrees you are still learning for the first 150 hours of the game. It plays unlike any other shooter. I've got friends from various other franchises who play it like those games and they have to unlearn a lot of habits in order to learn Hunt

@@thesuperginge1348 yeah I think thats the main point why it had problems to become popular. I personally play it since the beta and back then I luckily didnt have such big problems getting into the game because everyone was kinda new.

@@lucaa8494 matchmaking update coming isn’t it

I agree! I really want to see how he likes the pressurized BB gun in that game. It's my favorite weapon outside of the soviet staples.

Yea I'd like to hear him talk about the belt-fed shotgun, the shambler, the bastard and also the fictional "AK-12" with the P90 mag.

@@THE_Glass_Grizzly Dude ever since then I've had a fascination for air guns. They'd be the perfect post apocalyptic weapon if you think about it. Run out of gunpowder? Just use air lmao

not true. chain revolver do exist in the real world.

@@dizzyhint8800 Well... yeah, that.. that was the joke. The guy said he imagined that the devs might not have known it actually existed, and learned about it with this vid.

Guns in Metro? Post-apocalypse Metro 2033/LL/Exodus? Regular weapons - AK, single-barrel shotgun, .44 cal pistol, irregular - "Bastard", 12 gauge belt-fed machine gun and other weapons. Metro-2 series? Really Soviet weapons of 1940s.

They probobly went into the training mode. Which since there's a single butcher is possible.

It's always funny to me that theme with the whole "XYZ profession reacts" series. It's like they get the intern to play the game for them who has thumbs bigger than their forehead. They never grab anyone who plays the game regularly to get gameplay for them.

A little bit, yeah. But, we ain’t here for gameplay! ...most of us at least

I agree, they took, for the most part, the most unrealistic and weird weapons from the game. I'd much rather have seen him commenting on just a Mosin, Lebelle or one of the precision pistols or something. I must say he's quite good to recognize what they're based off of even though they're so changed!

For sure this, a real missed opportunity

@Mati Mikk what Napalm means is the game itself have a test fire range complete with gun animations for each weapon You can take any firearm in the game and go to the virtual fire range, mostly used to hear the audible que over distances
