The XM4 is a Vietnam Era weapon. The reason for the 25 round mags is because the mags at the time would jam the gun up if it was loaded all the way, so soliders just partially loaded them to 20 or 25.

The best 5.56 gun was removed from GAMMA 😢, the Hera. Fortunately, a mod re-enable it in the NPCs drop, because the Hera is still in the game.

I dont get the obsession with high fire rates i often see in these lists. I find that even on smaller calibers like 5.56 i still find myself tap shooting heads to save ammo so i dont see having a slow fire rate as a reason to place a gun in a lower tier.

SOOOOOOO underrated, this channel is a godsend for gamma players

Of course he puts out a tier list a day after i chose my 5.56 weapon, Null is in my walls

Biggest redeeming factor for Adar is the fact that it is NATO AR that You can get the earliest in the game

can't wait for the 9x39 tier list. I'm wondering where the new AMB-17 sits

Great rewiev about 5.56, awaiting the other calibers, keep up the good work mate!

5:26 This. this is why you want that "panic mode" named Full-auto. I really liked the Butcher's 60 rounders but I guess I should give other S-tier guns a try. Especially that F2000 w/ grenade launcher :D

Just got into playing gamma, your videos are super helpful. From slav to brit, thank you brother.

thx for you work. so many good videos from gamma!

Locking forward to the first of april tier list ^^

4 stashes in gargabe= no tools + shit ton of radiation. Good mod, fun too.

The reason they removed the L85A2 Tactical and the M4 Hera was pure nonsense. They removed it from the loot tables but kept the bazillion versions of G36? And all the versions of the Sig 55x?. The Howa Type 20 is ridiculous good, it recoils almost nothing and its scope sway is almost non-existent.

Dude you should make a tier list of all your tier lists... theres sooo mannnyyy !!! :D

The LMG in general are not meant for you, they're meant for your followers) Just make sure to repair it and keep an eye on stats of your follower, so you can repair gun in time. Because when they use your guns, the gun will take integrity damage. And when they die, gun will lose around 10% integrity.

I've been using the M4 Tactical for like 40 in game days now on my long slow burn chill save. I just can't put it down. Has it been removed in the newest patch(s)? I haven't updated since before new year so maybe for the best?

As long as it has less recoil and decent accuracy, I am content with it.

it would be nice if you rate UGP in gamma. so many guns added and needs a rating

Yesss finally

Is the HERA still in the game?

Which faction have the Howa type 20

Great , i agree with your tier selection. Also shout out to Grok for putting Fnf2000 where it belongs it was the OG gun!

No LR-300? Always used that one out of sentimental value - along with more "vintage" M4 variants (in this case XM4 fill the criteria). As for ammo- that's why I'm buyin all vodka to exchange with the Spirit.

I like that all the 5.56x45 guns are never bad, and it's mostly down to preference I still love me the G36 line as my go-to Western assault rifle, just like I prefer the AK-47 (7.62 Soviet) line of rifles from the East

So... guess not many here play with Mags Redux, so the stock mag capacity is irrelevant? You fellas should give it a shot. It's not everyone's cup of tea, but I like the micromanagement and the extra difficulty of planning it brings. Pretty neat that you can use different types of magazines, too, be they extended or fast-loading.

The Arrow is slept on. It’s a sniper/AR hybrid. Its power lies in its incredible accuracy and flatness. If you compare the stats to the stats of the G36K, it’s straight up better. Def not a close quarters gun but for short bursts over a long range it’s amazing.

1:15 There's no reason for the AK-101 to not accept a GP-25. It does IRL, and it does in standard-issue Anomaly. It's like they handicapped it for no reason! As for optics, in standard-issue Anomaly, it could accept both Eastern and Western scopes and reflex sights, so there was no reason to take that away. 1:42 The only "Ak" that's actually an FNC (because "Ak" has a different meaning in Swedish). I call it "Swede Success." Oblivion Lost 2010 has the standard Bofors Ak.5, and it's one of the best five-five-sixers. So that seems to be consistent across all mods. 1:45 What about reliability? 2:11 / 2:22 "One-point-five power" is how to enunciate that. Feels weird at first, but you get used to it. 3:21 Why?! Why these dumb decisions?! This sort of thing makes or breaks a mod for me and is one of the reasons I've stuck with standard-issue Anomaly (even though I hate how Anomaly portrays pump-action shotguns, plus I appreciate how GAMMA adds back in the ability to "dodge" pseudogiant pseudostomps with perfectly-timed jumps - or is that just certain versions?). GAMMA has the M320 grenade launcher, which is a licensed copy of the AG36, which was designed by H&K for the G36. So what was their logic in not allowing the G36 to accept a grenade launcher that was made for it? It's one thing for a G36 to not accept, say, a GL5040 (which was made by SIG for the SG550). That makes sense. But THIS doesn't make sense! Edit/Note: For the same reason, it also makes sense that the StG.90 version of the SG550 (the original Swiss Army version) doesn't accept a SUSAT because it lacks a rail. IRL, it accepts its own type of scope, and it makes sense that it isn't available in the Zone. 4:00 Are there different versions of GAMMA that do different things with grenade launchers? I know I've seen gameplay vids of the L85A2 with an M320 in some version of GAMMA. And no, I'm not getting it confused with True S.T.A.L.K.E.R. (which has that same launcher on that same rifle). 4:17 That explains it! That's what I was thinking of. Seems weird that there's a handicapped version of a gun when the non-handicapped version does everything better? There's no incentive to use the one when the other is better in every way! "Balance," much? Note: Wanna try blasting chimeras out of the air with 40-mils? 4:33 (belt) 5:04 All rifles with Picatinny rails should except all the same sights. That's not to say that all sights will match all rifles. 5:09 All Stoner-based rifles have the same magazine well and use all the same mags and drums, so that's an artificial handicap. A mag mod would override that, but I don't see the point of a 20-round mag on a five-five-sixer anyway. That is, unless it's a semi-auto police-style precision rifle like the SG550-1. The idea is that the shorter mag is easier to swap out while lying prone. 5:49 Nostalgia alert! Muh fave five-five-sixer in 'nilla ShoC! 5:54 It has the same rail that everything else has, so it must be a late '90s model. If it was the StG.90 version (the original Swiss Army version adopted in 1990), then it would make sense for it to have a bad sight selection, and for none of its optics to be available in the Zone. The "sniper" variant available in 'nilla ShoC has an integral SUSAT scope. Two Freedom sentries carry the only two in the game. Makes sense because we can assume they were custom jobbers. 6:04 I see its forearm has been Americanized to allow it to accept an M-203 instead of a GL5040 (aka "Gewehraufsatz 97" or "GwA.97"). In the core games, the GL5040 is mislabeled as an "M-203." 6:27 It's made for CQC. For Zone use, it would be a handy indoor fighting rifle. Or maybe a lightweight backup weapon to pair with something heavier.

what about the 416?

what are the yellow and what the red tools next the type?

Is the XM177e2 (dropped from a Monolith Stalker who guarded the helicopter near the boarder to the brain scorcher) TEAR „S“ in your Opinion. I am currently modifying it because it suits perfectly to my Tactical Lebedev PL15 Pistol with the Cloth on the suppressor - playing as a merc ;-) who has this rifle?

Hey Im confused, I thought you already made this exact video?

You should made a Caliber tier

I love adar's furniture

Howa FTW. It sits next to my RPK 16.

I just wish grok would somehow implement magnifiers in the game. I would just love to use my eotech with ability to become 3x scope in one click. I dont really like that button that basically makes you focus more and your collimator somehow isnt a 1x scope but 2x. Its kinda cringe as for me and magnifier would make this feature logical and stop us from butting 12x scope on every gun there is.

I do remember Stalker Misery (wih original CoP story and classes) - this game did leave mark on all my future gameplays. I know that different people prefer their own gameplay. But. If rifle can not attach scope (with magnification) and grenade launcher - it's bad, IMO. Assault rifle with scope is budget version of sniper rifle (ammo in Misery is bloody expensive, especially AP). Grenade launcher is problem solver for large groups of mutants and clears stalkers from buildings. So, M4A1 (for NATO guns) in GAMMA is love. It's cheap and weights like less then 5 kg (with attachments that I need). No cool mumbo-jumbo, just pure effectiveness. But to be fair tactical variant is better as marksman rifle.

HELL YEAH FN-2000 GANG IS WINNIN WITH THE S TIER

Swamp thing can be got at nimble right?

Sweet vindication for my beloved Swamp Thing and it's butt fuck mental fire rate

It must have been hard to not put L85 into S tier.

People who say you don't 'need' full-auto are just trying to cope with not being able to have full-auto.

keep refreshing now it's here hehehe

You should heavily consider the gun recoil, i rather have semi-automatic with low recoil rather automatic with out of this world recoil

is there a 5.45 video?

Wait does Monolith really sell NATO rounds? I never noticed

Nitpick, but you don't have the correct pronunciation for the Thales EF88, Thales is a French company and in pseudo english you would pronounce it "Talaysse" 🤓

Where do i get historic repair kit

1:25 yeah full auto really does help xD hit the initial shot, the rest goes into the moon, very useful to waste ammo (gamma is hard blah blah blah, maybe use a little bit of common sense and conserve ammo by actually aimiing and hitting targets cosistently AND accurately xd) +mag size isnt an issue if you know what youre doing +recoil isnt an issue if you know what youre doing +++basically every S tier has a big mag and a high fire rate xd

LMGs do have accuracy, it's just accuracy by volume, one of these hundred of bullets is bound to hit something or someone.

were is my E? >:v

thales ef88 has to be S it has the best base states you can go the whole game without switching to another gun and when you do it better be a better one like the butcher

Were ar15 hera

ok

i love you. thats what i wanted. thanks. you are favourite.

SIG's just degrading over upgrades XD

Curious as to why firearms that are able to be rechambered to 5.56 aren't included?

I genuinely don’t understand the focus on the fire rate. It’s a totally irrelevant stat in this category of rifles as the fire rates are already pretty good. If you want to kill things faster you’ll just use AP anyway

5.56 tier list Nothing in D or F tier Free world bros stay winning

L85 hate! M4 love!

All HP ammo is for mutants

Damn, not gonna rate Skinflint’s AR? I know why, but stull

the only ak rifle's that use 5.56 is 101 and 102 not the 105 since it's a 5.45x39 rifle

how can anyone hate the look of the f2000?

It bothers me that you don't take weight into consideration for ANY of your tier lists.

I feel like putting the ADAR in B-tier was comment bait.. As the only 5.56 accessible with a Basic kit, it's a go-to on dang near every run I do now - that alone makes it easy A-tier. Wish they'd put more semi-auto guns capable of using AR calibers on the Historic kit..
