Vipox69 oh shut up with that shit.

Or maybe an american soldier stole the gun from the war and then died, and now it's lying around in his now abandonen forest cabin.

@@alexmoore1506 Why did that make you so angry?

Ryan J because people repeat the same stupid ideas over and over

@@alexmoore1506 I think you're taking it far more seriously than it was intended.

My Geandfather was in the trenches in WWI and given this rifle. The Boche raided his trench one night and he had this gun as he traded it with a French for a bottle of wine. The German pointed an artillery Luger at my great grandfather, about to fire, but he shouted “RIBBIT RIBBIT RIBBIT RIBBETY RIBBEY ROLLS” and the Germans Ribbeted and ribbeyed and rolled and rolled until my grandfather was able to ribbey up to him and ribble each and every German. The surviving Germans, seeing their comrades thoroughly ribbeyed and rolled, ribbed and ribbeted away from grandads ribbey ribbetting ribbeyrolling ribbeyrolls and ribbeted back to their trench.

He is getting quite good. Je suis une autre Americain qui peut parlez Français...

As Frenchman from France (so I speak true French lol) I appreciate the effort too

I remember the M82A1 in America’s Army having a jam damn near every other round.

Why not just pronounce it in english if you are not french ?

Because the name is in french

@@-149onreyna3 has a english name and pronunciation also . Like u dont call paris 'paree' do you ? Dummy

Aviation lord True.

One could very well exist in some French archive collection. That being said, with the way France is there is no way anyone outside of the French military is ever going to see it if one does survive

would be a nice wallhanger, because it would not work

maybe in the reserve of le musée des armées aux Invalides.

+Aviation lord This is actually part of the reason why Ian's channel Forgotten Weapons exists. He mentioned before that someone that inherited John Pedersen's blueprints and documents on Pedersen devices (including ones for other rifles) had thrown them out and they were the only documentation sources left on this planet. History that could never be recovered or saved. Because this understandably frustrated Ian, he started up Forgotten Weapons to try and save as much as possible so this would never happen again. And as he reasoned it, it was a good time to start. Many of the men involved with this designing and small arms development process of the interwar years and WW2 are now almost all dying off due to old age. And you never know if the same thing could happen were some family member sees a bunch of papers having firearms and whatnot on them and they just throw them out without a care in the world.

Gun Jesus knoweth all, He seeth all your thoughts on weapons.

I see you have been praying to The Gun Jesus. Your prayer have been answered.

­ ­ Well that's a boring way to think of it. I like arcadey games as well as realistic ones, and think that the games that don't take themselves as seriously as, say, Escape from Tarkov or ARMA (or Verdun), should have a little creative wiggle room. Realism has it's place but... I don't think anyone would like to play a shooter game that has a realistic portrayal of the presence of artillery, for example. There's tradeoffs to be made with novelty vs reality and different people like different things.

I've already played that game, it's called Bioshock Infinite. Look, is the game disregarding reality or not? If they are disregarding reality, fine, then you can have people shooting lighting from their hand and using force-fields. What I don't like is the game trying to have it both ways, it wants to advertise itself as "set in the first world war" but doesn't want to actually do that. I'd like it if they admitted they weren't being realistic and were only being inspired by the 1910's era technology but want's even trying to be just a remix of WW1 weapons/equipment. This phoney bullshit of passing off broken prototype guns as typical of WW1 combat isn't very fun when you realise the bullshit it's trying to pull. I'm not convinced that this is either the interesting WW1 setting, nor is it a fantasy steampunk magic world only inspired by said era. "I don't think anyone would like to play a shooter game that has a realistic portrayal of the presence of artillery, for example." I would. Rolling barrage would be a great gameplay mechanic with the right sort of in-game explanation so everyone doesn't just try to run through it. We've already had games with death raining from the sky in the forms of killstreaks in the Call of Duty series. There's also the cat and mouse of artillery in counter-battery fire roll, are you going to have your artillery "shoot and scoot" or dig in and stand its ground? Also, anti-tank guns count as artillery. The underappreciated dynamic is how infantry are needed to hunt down these well dug in anti-tank guns which generally can pick off tanks with far greater ease, so it's a long running fight to get to the anti-tank guns. And just getting a line of sight on them can be enough as then you have the mini-game of trying to call the artillery in onto the position before counter-battery fire suppresses your own artillery. You'd have to fight for a position where you can locate landmarks to triangulate your position, then call in the azimuth, elevation and approximate range to the AT-gun. Then watch the shot and mark that. Obviously, if someone else was giving the same azimuth/elevation from a very different position, you could locate the position with far more accuracy. Now that is something interesting. And other "unlockables" like radio-jammer, radio-direction-locators, artillery fire detectors and so on factor into this infantry combat which depends on artillery being a remotely realistic factor in the game. It brings a value of stealth and mobility, you can't just loiter around in one good spot blasting away forever, that'll give them time to target you with artillery. One of the main problems with so many FPS games is the scourge of campers.

Treblaine Maybe I shouldn't have generalized... I think it would be interesting to have a shooter where artillery is a major factor, yes, but that's too complicated and potentially frustrating to deal with in a casual multiplayer game. Speaking in broad terms, people buy FPS games for gunplay, not "hide in cover and pray that one of the fifteen shells headed your way doesn't land too close". If anything, Battlefield is an example of what happens when you get too realistic in the wrong areas... IE, more people killed by gas or incendiary grenades or some jerkoff sitting on spawn with a mortar than with guns... Doesn't exactly make for a fun experience. More realistic games require a more nuanced playstyle, that a lot of people would get frustrated with for being overly restrictive. As for the prototype guns, I accept it as a way of fitting the WWI setting into the progression system and weapon variety that Battlefield is used to... The optical sights on every weapon thing and the bizarre damage models for bolt actions rifles does bother me a little, but it's a tiny thing imo. And on campers, artillery can only do so much about them. The risk vs reward of sitting in a window or a corner somewhere is still going to be skewed... Preventing camping would require a lot of work into engineering the whole game around forcing players into abandoning certain strategies that are normally effective (if perhaps a little unsporting)

Well, Call of Duty is as casual as it gets and they've had massive bombardments with killstreaks for a decade now. "Speaking in broad terms, people buy FPS games for gunplay" That's way too simplistic. That's like saying you could never possibly have vehicles in an FPS game because "they're only here for the gunplay" nor have any melee weapons. Very few are such strict purists where they want literally nothing but gunplay. And "hide in cover and pray that one of the fifteen shells headed your way doesn't land too close" is not how you deal with artillery, you KEEP MOVING. Artillery has a high latency, a long lag time, that's the weakness you'd exploit. Hunkering down is a part of it, but it's also about evasion and really why is there artillery raining down on your position in the first place? You must have done something to draw the attention of an artillery spotter. "As for the prototype guns, I accept it as a way of fitting the WWI setting into the progression system and weapon variety that Battlefield is used to" Battlefield never had THAT much weapon variety, this is NOT about weapon variety, the standard arms you'd find in such areas provide the variety... this is about any excuse to have an assault rifle in WW1. Not variety. Just giving up on being a WW1 shooter. This is like making a game set in the wild west but twisting and contorting scenarios and plausibility until everyone is armed with a weapon functionally identical to an M16 or AK47. The whole point of a western is it's six-shooters and lever actions. The whole point of WW1 is bolt-actions and heavier machine guns. "the bizarre damage models for bolt actions rifles does bother me a little, but it's a tiny thing imo." But it's huge, it makes it suicidal to use a rifle in close quarters, they nerfed the bolt action rifles unreasonably just to prevent people even wanting to play with them. And lo and behold, there's a demand for automatic weapons. When the bolt action cycles so slowly it's all about the one-hit-kill, but that's paradoxically absent at closer distances. How does a bullet gain more energy after leaving the muzzle? "Preventing camping would require a lot of work into engineering the whole game around forcing players into abandoning certain strategies that are normally effective (if perhaps a little unsporting)" The thing is, camping isn't really an emergent property of video games, they are functionally similar to real gunfights people set up in a dominant position for the same reason except it's not called camping, it's called words to the effect of "he's in a really good position" defilade and enfilade and so on. Grenades are really good at clearing these out because it's a lot easier to indirectly figure out where such a position is. Things like artillery need to not be ancillary, they need to be THE objectives. These online game control where players are expected to go and where they cannot go. This is why a position would be attacked, it's where some sort of artillery piece is located. Instead they have arbitrary objectives like just take this red circle, stand inside it for an arbitrary amount of time. That's why artillery of any sort breaks these games, they are put in as an afterthought, even though they are so fundamental to the duties of infantry. If you don't want to get blasted by artillery, then it's time to admit that war is a horrible thing and maybe you don't want to play a war game, maybe you'd rather play overwatch or some wizard combat game. But to dress up the look of war, as if it's something far more noble like every fight is a mano-e-mano duel of individual skill, when it's in fact far more methodical, it's far more about positioning and guile rather than running around any old place and depending entirely on twitch responses.

@@Treblaine then it only you and few little playing it . better go out play real life than listen to you

To do otherwise is a heresy. Just saying...

Luke Bunyip ...You'd be correct.

So do I

Fruitninja Zero Fallout New Vegas also has malfunctions programmed on. If you don't care for your weapons and gear it eventually breaks while becoming increasingly more prone to misfeeds and malfunction.

And don't forget about Escape from Tarkov.

Also S.T.A.L.K.E.R. (it even featured the British L85 as a sort of "joke gun").

S.T.AL.K.E.R series and kinda forgotten korean MMO FPS called Operation 7 also did that. The jamming mechanics aren't supposed to be a realistic representation of every weapon, but rather a punishment for players who keep using their gear for a long time without repairs.

Or just keep using the same gear in SOC, since it didn't featured a real repair system (I don't know about COP and Clear Sky, only played the first one) unless you installed mods.

Well, it is a prototype.

FrÜt it’s really good idk how you be dying so much

Matei Goina Phonetically I would say “Rib-eh-rol”. Ian seems to have substituted the Rs with Spanish Js ;-)

Matei Goina Actually this is not quite how it should sound (even if I have to admit that his accent is nice ;) ) It would be smthg like "Ribehrol" Oh and by the way, you should not pronounce the "L" at the end of "fusil" (which means rifle) Great content though (as always) :)

Oh, I know the phonetic rules in french, but I was never sure if I should add a slight h to one R, or both, or none. Thanks for the help guys Edit: accidentally claimed to be french

i just call it the 'Roller' in bf1. pretty decent overall performance ingame

English, French and Mandarin Chinese: the three hardest languages to master. Well OK, if you are lazy like me :)

Joshua Radick Would be nice to use the SKS and the MP44 with the bent barrel to shoot in the corners without exposing yourself. Also, the Type 4 rifle (Jap copy of the Garand), the paratrooper version of the Arisaka, the M1 carbine with night vision, etc... Wow... I learned so much watching Ian's videos...!

There was a version of the PPSh-41 with curved barrel and one with a night vision scope too

One of these days they should do a dieselpunk type game like ironharvest or wolfenstein there they could use whatever prototype as source and could go wild .

Soshykin Didn't knew that.

Hopefully. I'd love to see obscure and prototype guns again. Here's hoping we get the SKS, De Lisle, and others. Maybe even the RPD but that might be pushing it.

ravioli ravioli don't lewd the white-haired gun loli

KCMercenary223 fedorov's rifle done that in 1916

Ted Archer It didn't use an intermediate cartridge, it used the Japanese full-sized rifle cartridge

which is less powerful than intermediate 6.5 grendel

Ted Archer - Incorrect. 6.5 Arisaka gives you more muzzle energy than 6.5 Grendel regardless of load or projectile. They can be close, but the Arisaka is certainly full power, while the Grendel is at the limit between intermediate and full power.

Ted Archer The term “assault rifle” is as much a doctrinal thing as it is a set of traits. The Fedorov as far as I have seen, was used more as a crew served LMG and was only ever issued with one magazine. Definitely not an assault rifle. That’s even if you make the stretch and call the 6.5x50 an intermediate cartridge, which I don’t think it is.

Jonathan Tatum To be fair to Ian, the rolling 'r' in French IS very difficult for Americans.

Michael Berthelsen Regardless, he is likely to have the closest pronunciation of the Ribeyrolles apart from the French. I applaud him for trying!

Just don't pronounce the 2 final letters and you should be close enough from the French.

Camp Master Noob Oh, so like, “Hchibbyhoy”?

I'm French, that's absolutely not how that's pronounced. "ey" is not "i", it's "é" or "eh".

Which manufacture machineguns...

yes

DANNYonPC "Hey,it's Danny here."

Preach brother. The bipod & bayonet give it great versatility.

Honestly the subguns and all the belt-fed muchineguns ruined the game.

It's really good, but if I had to pick only one from the entire game, I think it'd have to be the SMLE Infantry. My god I love that gun.

it would have made for an interesting bullpup though

Yes the weight would have helped. However soldiers would be required to carry the rifle along with enough ammo to make it useful. 11lbs of rifle is a lot of weight to tote around. A quote from the movie The Green Berets will work here. Colonel " Your records state you are a heavy weapons specialist" Reply " Not if I can find a light one. Sir"

Let's not forget ounces turns to pounds and pounds turn to pain. Definitely needed more work, however, well and truly ahead of its time and perhaps, the materials of the time, now I think about it. French doctrine wasn't helping either.
