Fun fact. Barrett customer support received a call from Marine scout snipers in Iraq. They were pinned down and their weapon (the barret .50) had a malfunction. The customer support team walked the sniper team through percussive maintenance and had the .50 firing again in no time.

​@@bucketsss.12.v43 notice how it wasn't dollars they donated in, it was "NOK", i.e. Norwegian Krone. 100 NOK equals $9.62 American dollars, at the moment. Though it's still a generous donation, any donation at all is, Ahoy is definitely one of the people who deserves a lot of patreon supporters, since he's putting out world class documentaries, some of the best documentaries about any subject ever made, and doing it all by himself. He even spends a long time doing all the custom animations for the videos, which is not easy in the slightest, and is probably what takes the longest to create by a long long way. The reason animation videos died on KZread is because making a video longer than 10 minutes meant youtuber could put a midroll ad into the middle of the video and earn more money that way. But for animation youtubers, it'd take months of work to create a 10 minute animation video on their own, their videos were always like 2-3 mins because that was the only way they could keep a somewhat regular upload schedule. So for Ahoy, who's videos are chock full of custom animation despite most of them being over an hour long, it's no wonder it takes him many months to finish. It's gruelling work. If he could get to a point where this could be his full time job, youtubing, and even employ an animator to help out with that part of each video on top of that, he could pump them out a lot quicker probably. The research and script writing and voice recording take a much shorter time than the animation does. So that'd be good. Although I feel like eventually, the best youtubers are gonna start being picked up by major TV and movie studios in a few decades, as millenials start occupying every big position in the industry and they know how good people like Ahoy are, how rare that level of talent is. And people like Jon Bois because of his sports documentaries on the channel Secret Base, which are the best sports documentaries ever made. And BobbyBroccoli for his Boisian style documentaries about physics that even a complete lay person can easily understand because he explains it so well, and EmpLemon for his documentaries about any sort of weird or strange topic that turns out to be incredibly interesting because of how well he presents them e.g. the story of New Coke in the 80s, or the video about who actually climbed mount Everest first because there's a possibility it was climbed decades before edmund hillary and tenzig norgay, climbed by a veteran of the Battle of the Somme, George Mallory. And so on. So yeah, with full support of a dedicated animation team (and research team too), making these Ahoy documentaries but with an actual budget and team, so that they come out quicker, would be amazing. And someone like the BBC or ITV would probably love to have him, just as a voice acting/narrating talent, not just for his own documentaries about video games. He's exactly the kind of guy with a distinct soothing and incredibly easy to understand voice that is just a gorgeous voice to listen to just like the voices of other people such as David Attenborough, Ahoy is exactly the kind of guy that these TV studios/channels would love to employ as a voice actor to record a narration about a number of different things and not only for his own documentaries about video games. I'm completely serious about that too. Whenever Attenborough finally passes away, Ahoy would be a fantastic guy to take over as the BBC's voice actor/narrator or choice. And so maybe by the time CEO and chairman and president positions in these TV broadcasting companies like the BBC are all run by millenials as baby boomers have all finally died off, they'll know of Ahoy's silky smooth gorgeous voice and his ability to write and create world class documentaries, they'll hire him sjd that can really be his full time job from then on. If he wants that, that is. Maybe Ahoy only does this as a hobby and has a separate career for his day job that he likes and doesn't want to abandon to become a voice actor. But yeah I really think there's a good possibility he ends up being one of Britain's foremost voice actors/narrators.

You're videos are legendary my friend. I LOVE this series. 15 minutes if excellent editing and amazing facts. They're unique in this platform. You're appreciated buddy!

It's impressive how informative, interesting, stylish, and entertaining these videos continue to be after all these years. They take time, but that is understandable and worth the result.

Ahoy is the only person on youtube who can make me grin like a child and get chills every video.

These videos are always so enjoyable. The information, the way it’s broken down, the music, the editing, the voice, the chilling lines. All enjoyable and hasn’t changed a bit. Not the most consistent at uploading, but it’s always a joy coming back to a new video.

unironically my favourite youtube series on the planet, feels like a historical moment when a new one drops

I love your videos, they're informative, straightforward, and the connectivity in video games and direct relativity to war and the evolution of the weapons through history is like candy to me.

Glad to see you still active Ahoy, your videos are always refreshing to watch. Thanks for your hard work!

I’ll be real, if you decided to release a four hour video of you just dramatically reading the phone book, I would listen to the entire thing. Add onto that your excellent writing on your essays and I’m a huge fan

He’s one of those special KZreadrs who puts out quality over quantity. When you get a new video every week, it loses its wonder after some time. Whereas for Ahoy’s case, every episode feels special because it drops when you least expect it.

I notice how more detail is getting incorporated to your original solid-color style, it doesn't take away much for me and I really like it. Keep it up Ahoy :D

Awesome video! Love all of the details and great visuals you put into these

I've produced some random stuff myself and most of the tracks in his videos are just basic synths, likely on a saw pattern. That is not to say they don't fit or aren't really good in the videos, not at all. Just that it's not hard to actually make them.

​@@FozzieOzbourne when I'm gonna watch one or those videos like the Quake one, I always have to go back to the beginning and watch every single video in that series, in order. So start with the Wolfenstein video, then the Doom video, then the Quake video, cos they're a trilogy and the later videos expect you to have watched the other ones first because they give more context to the content of that layer video. That's no bad thing though, spending a whole day watching all those videos in order. But yeah if you're gonna watch the quake one, watch the Wolfenstein and the Doom videos first. You must do it. That's the rules. Sorry.

So good for you to be back posting these! Keep making your amazing content.

Just found your channel and this is my first video I've watched but the amount of effort you clearly put into this video deserves a subscribe.

Ahh, I missed these. The interesting history, stellar graphic design, and amazing game footage. Ahoy's calming, poetic way of speaking. You just don't find videos this good on KZread anymore. I really hope there's more to come soon

Every episode is excellent in every way imaginable, but I think we all have to admit it: ever since we watched our first episode of Ahoy weapons, we fell in love with the ending. And with every next episode we just can't wait to hear what will be that final badass quote. Very satisfying.

I found this series a year ago and I still love it. actually some of the best entertainment ever.

12:48 … thus began the scourge of the 360 no-scope

Crazy that the guy who developed the gun didn't have a background in firearms before he started making it. Figuring out how to reduce the recoil must have been quite an engineering challenge. Great video as always Ahoy.

This gun definetly is one of the most iconic snipers in modern videogames. That long barrel marked with the huge muzzle brake is instantly recognisable, and it's usually the sniper that no matter where you hit on the torso, your enemy is turned into red paste. Amazing weapon.

I work at an outdoor shooting range and had the pleasure of firing nine round from the Barrett M82A1 today. I'd say felt recoil was comparable to a mean 12 gauge shotgun. So happy to see this pop up in my feed.

GOOSEBUMPS!!!! Thanks for uploading!

Absolutely stellar video! Thank you for putting in all the effort!

I'm always glad when Carlos Hathcock's story is included when talking about fifty cals or sniping in general. He was a true living legend and it's good to preserve his legacy, especially with everything he did to support veterans after he retired.

@SchlopFlopper

Жыл бұрын

IIRC, the rifles that finally overtook his record were also chambered in .50BMG. Edit: Just checked, current record holder was with the McMillan Tac-50, and most of the longest confirmed kills are indeed with .50bmg. Still impressive that Hathcock set and held that record with a machine gun.

6:46 They used them behind enemy lines to stop supply vehicles, a 50BMG to the crankshaft of a semi truck does a lot of damage. Seizes the engine, and stops it in it's tracks.

Fantastic to see you back with another great video. Alwas brings back the nostalgia

Yay! Definitely worth the wait; fantastic production as always!
