I would hope so since they genuinely put effort in to replicate every single real firearm. It's a realistic SWAT shooter for a reason.

I love the fact he plays some of these games and is into some of the universes that are out there. He's able to compare it perfectly and explain things in a great way, but still be accepting that games won't always be 100% right (except cod vanguard obviously, we're sorry about that).

A comment on the note toward the end about standard issue: if I remember right, and admittedly I haven't gotten around to playing since 1.0 dropped, but the story in Ready or Not is that crime is so bad in Los Suenos and the SWAT team so newly formed that the people in charge of procuring equipment for the unit basically just looked at lists of everything SWAT teams from other cities have used and hit ctrl+A.

If I remember correctly, the UMP45 and HK416 in this game also has a 404 number on the side.

For games where barrel length matters, a few like Insurgency and Rising Storm simulate it, but in most gunfights the only time it comes into play is when you’re kissing a piece of cover and you have to wait another second to aim the gun after popping out. The Door Kickers games are great examples of the mechanic, though, as the units you control will lower their gun if it bumps into a wall, so a longer, suppressed weapon will take some preparation and extra planning to properly go through doorways with.

Length of the gun affected things in Syndicate back in 2012. When you approached an object in the environment, the character would move his hands to try to hold the gun around the edges of it. If no edges could be reached, he would just pull the gun straight back into himself, and trying to aim or shoot would push you back away from the wall. I remember it vividly because I thought it was so cool actually seeing the gun move around the environment rather than just be some static thing on the screen. Syndicate might be worth doing a video on someday, because it had some interesting guns in it.

H3VR, being a physics-led simulation, very much has the size of weapons having a significant effect in close quarters. Clearing a house with a G3 vs a MP5 is a very, very different experience! Getting a suppressor is nice, but you often really have to think about how it effects manuverability. Hitman (the first one) also had this, with being a 3rd person game, it and was even possible to shoot yourself in the jaw with the right (wrong) weapon by pushing up against an obstacle and firing at the same time. DayZ apparently has this as a feature, but I have not played it.

my understanding as a gun geek is there's a confidence in the reliability in a pump action that isn't there in semi autos, since you manually pump you know for a fact you're chambered and loaded, while also being able to make the gun unable to fire reasonably easily by half pumping it if you get into a CQB wrestling match over it again it's up to each operators preference of course so some might prefer semi autos etc etc

I'd love to see you guys cover the weapons from Reciever 2. It's a little known indie game with only 7 pistols in its entire arsenal, but it has probably the most realistic weapon handling out of any game I've ever played, especially with the added challenge of malfunctions or times when you need to make the weapon safe and empty as fast as possible.

10:05, the best game I've seen concerning weapon length is Ground Branch, instead of the thing you see in a few games of the gun rising when you go close to a surface, you instead pull the gun into your body first until the point where you have to rise it so that you can still keep your barrel down range. That game also have my favourite options for avoiding flagging, allowing you to raise up or lower your gun with your mouse wheel. Final cool feature (that isn't as annoying as it sounds), the longer you keep your weapon raised (especially aimed) the less stable it becomes (but not to a painful degree), encouraging you to lower your weapon and let your arms rest when outside of combat

Would sure be fun to get your rifle stuck on a corner because you`re straight at the wall with actual collisions, but it's honestly a lot of extra work for something you can just emulate with a distance check, not to mention that it'd be pointless without having to manually change how you hold the weapon. And I honestly don't even want to figure out how annoying getting actually stuck with that would be after a while or how often it bugs something out.

They have two variants of the pepper ball ammunition, a round ball used in traditional hopper fed "non lethal launcher", often a Tippmann 98 Custom of some variety but not limited to that make and model and magazine fed non lethal launcher/paintball pistols and the first strike type used in mag fed paintball markers like the EMF-100 from Planet Eclipse and the FN 303 if I recall. FN had help from Air Gun Designs(AGD) on the pneumatics of the launcher for that one, AGD designed the extra reliable .68 Automag way back in the late 80's and 90's and used it as the base for the system in the FN 303. I have a EMF-100 set up as a scenario marker that is exclusively mag fed now. They look .68 caliber round nose training grenades you would see in a 40mm M203 or M230 grenade launcher but without the rim, they fly far and straight when compared to their round ball style cousins. good enough flight characteristics that you can use modern red dots with FS style rounds with good results.

The reduction in muzzle velocity isn't as much as you would think with 7.62 x 39 out of a shorter barrel, mostly due to it being a lower pressure round. Many people modding their own guns have found that it's actually a great choice to put a suppressor on as well.

I'm just happy someone finally brought back the SWAT series.

I don't recall if you have ever covered it, but there is a French GIGN unit that adopted 12in CZ Bren 2s in 7.62x39 relatively recently, which you might find interesting.

Considering that this unit never used frags and never has one before, the intended purposes of these M320s might just be launching flashbang and CS shells into rooms where the suspects barricaded themselves in.

On the weapon length thing, as ever, Tarkov is another good one for taking it into account. It also makes longer heavier weapons slow your movements down, and they are harder to aim down sights for long with as there's a separate arm stamina meter (the latter effect is a bit overdone, but it's interesting).

It's what's often called a "simunition" gun. It's not actually intended to be a less-lethal firearm to use operationally, but rather something that you use in training. In the game, you only use it in training at the shoothouse. We do exercises with them where we can role play different scenarios and shoot each other.

It's really amazing how much history and nuance you can learn about different tactical units and their cultures just by watching two knowledgeable and curious dudes critique video game guns.

i wish i remembered what game it was i played where hugging too close to a wall would have your character hold the gun sideways across his body for long guns and hold it upward for pistols. i believe pistols would actually be slightly quicker "on target", i.e. aligning with the crosshair again than long guns.

Re the comment in the MP9 section about the length of the gun mattering; it happens in Tarkov as well (b/c of course it does) - to the point where you can barrel stuff your opponent if your weapon is shorter than theirs

Do Ghosts of Tabor! They make a concerted effort to make their guns feel true to life, and it works. The Vector in that game is one of the few times where I've felt the horizontal recoil properly

I would love a series, or at least a video, of Jonathan commentating on games watching Dave play them.

the integrally suppressed mcx is named the rattler canebrake (military designation LVAW), and you can get it in 300 blk

Someone else may have said it already, but DayZ is another game where the length of your weapon matters. Weapons have collision with the environment which prevents them from clipping into objects - your character will raise the weapon to avoid clipping.

Great explanation

Ironic how the video includes a Glock, as Mr. Glock passed away today, apparently. RIP, Gaston Glock, designer of what is probably the most iconic gun of the post-Cold War era.

I love my p320 extended as it's 30 rounds. That weight helps a lot with recoil so you can go for punchier rounds to start and finish with lower recoil. Or just keep on plinking a few hundred, then feel how low recoil self defense ammo are.

Been watching quite a few of these reviews on weapons.. very interesting. The game looks seriously realistic.

The tpl pepper ball makes me believe its a slight letter change of the tippmann tcr which the model looks very similar to.

Needs a part 2 for the AUG and such

Is that SLR47 in 7.62 one of those full auto flashbang weapons? 😂😂

I think the reasoning for the short barreled AK mentioned early being in 7.62x39 rather then 5.45 is that 5.45 after certain import bans was very difficult and expensive to get in the US. If it still is i don't actually know.

Jonathan has in fact reacted to another game where the gun length matters, and seen a clip of it in action. In Escape from Tarkov your gun will go into a raised position and not fire if someone gets closer to you than it is long. This can be used as a way to clinch a close in fight against someone who isn't aware of the mechanic.

I wish Jonathan was shown the LeoTec sights since he enjoyed the SuberbNova pun so much

When the video starts discussing weapon length I was reminded of, I think, Quake 2 where if you watched someone using the rocket launcher, you can see that the rockets emerge from the character model's crotch. But then back then if you made ammunition fire from the correct part of the weapon, you might run into strange problems where if you fire at someone standing right next to you, your rounds would fire on the other side of the person.

As for the "cumbersomeness factor" of using weapons depending on the type of environment and length of the weapon, the tactical sim "Doorkickers" does this. Although it's not a shooter like Ready or not, you need to be able to use weapons depending on the environment: longer weapons won't bother you on a beach but will severely impact you indoors with tight coridors

15:26 that might be an awesome game mode. Call it “defunded” where you can only use bare basic weapons.

As a curvy trigger guard Five seveN IOM owner, I agree, the older Five seveNs look cooler than the MRD.

I’m actually impressed that they had a Byrna product in a game like this.

These videos are great!

the first other game that comes in mind about "weapon length matters" is Tarkov where you first pull the firearms further to your body or start to hold them sideways if too close to a wall.

fun little note about the shotguns: they literally rip limbs off if you're within ~20 meters, which scared the soul out of me the first time i saw it lol
