Firearms Expert Reacts To Escape From Tarkov’s Guns PART 4 

Can't all be flawless mate, great footage as always

Nice to see the rolling physics at least!

Seeing the bottom left corner in Tarkov clips be censored makes me feel you guys have swapped into SPTarkov for clips too, smart move if true.

@@Novaerian You should see how many HEAD, EYES moments that get cut out the footage haa

@@keatonwastaken that would make sense, actually getting a gl from big pipe is extremely difficult, I got a single shot gl this wipe from a pmc who killed him in a scav run

It's forced to sit in a room and look at cod vanguard guns all day

Hilarious

Fear.

Bit of bayonet practice going on in the back...

I thought it's my neighbours going crazy again, wouldn't even have realized it's from this video without your comment.

At first I thought you were joking, then I looked at the video views on the channel, and Jonathan is literally what's keeping the channel alive

For real though

basically, it's kind of a big deal

@@quantummickey6875 W reply

Right, but he was talking about the lever flicking again as the weapon was closed.

I do wounder if the fragments are actually simulated correctly. or the game does a draw cheak whit the nearby players rolls a dice and if the dice roll says hit send a fragment there way and then send the remaining few fragments randomly.

@@Zack_Wester In-game, pulling up the details on a grenade while it's in your character's inventory provides information about the number of fragments (between 35-100 depending upon the grenade) and both the lethal blast radius (2-8 meters) and contusion radius (between 7 and 13 meters). I believe Tarkov does model individual fragments, but the number can sometimes be one-quarter or less than IRL, presumably for reasons of computational expense. For instance, the RGD-5 apparently produces ~350 fragments IRL, but Tarkov only calculates 70. The lethal radius is therefore not a guaranteed "if your character is within this distance, they die" radius and is instead "if your character is in this radius and standing upright, you can expect to absorb enough shrapnel to die most, but not all, of the time" distance.

@@Zack_Wester From the way the visuals are and how the damaging effect works, I would guess that beyond the blasts AoE damage there is only actual physically modeled fragments.

@@Zack_Wester you can hear the report of fragments hitting around you after tossing a grenade 30 yards ahead which pretty cool. I definitely think they model the individual fragments and they just have a steep damage falloff

@@johnderouen1038 Grenades have 2 parts to their damage and you're right about the shrapnel, HOWEVER there is also a sphere cast as expected with most games - within a certain radius it means certain death, and then it starts diminishing until it reaches 0. You'll notice this if you've ever survived a nearby grenade hit where all of your body parts take the exact same amount of damage.

I 2nd this we need that vid so bad i wanna see The Ends Tranquilizer Mozin Nagant

Snake nerding out when given the .45 would be an interesting scene to see Jonathan react to.

Agreed!

Yes! I agree.

I thought there was a moment were the camera was not focused on the boss after she took his original 1911, she could theoretically have pulled the slide partway back and popped out the slide pin in that time.

Yeah he didn't notice it was a shotgun round.

He probably should have shot a wall to show it more clearly, but it's whatever.

Nope, I only had M441 rounds in my inventory. They were all the same rounds

And if you don’t have a pistol, opening the menu to look what you have to press again

@@arkatoshhd8517 i do hate that it forces you to "inspect" the gun first (pressing L) when you know you're going to have to just shift+T to cycle the action right after. like, you can just shift+T to cycle a round at any point for fun, but once it jams, you *have to* inspect it first.

@@SpaceMissile that sounds annoying but i think i see why the devs did that. if you have a stoppage you’re technically supposed to inspect the chamber first to see exactly what’s wrong, however i think you’ll find a lot of users today perform immediate action (tap and rack) without checking first which clears 99% of stoppages so i also disagree with how that functions

@@greatmeme tap rack bang, baby

The game is forcing you to take "remedial action" where you actually check and determine the cause of a malfunction/stoppage before attempting to correct it in whatever manner is necessary for the issue observed. The opposite option, what you're basically suggesting, is called "immediate action" which is a quick application of the most common solution for the weapon you are using, without actually checking first what is specifically causing your malfunction. The US army trains this way (like the M16/M4 "tap, rack, bang" drill) and while it does tend to be statistically faster and requires less training on understanding the mechanical action of your weapon, it can also get you killed if you've experienced a less common or easily resolved malfunction. I've personally witnessed someone attempt immediate action drills 3 times in a row without any success during training. Usually if it didn't work the first time you need to look it over before proceeding (plus your just wasting time with trying a drill that clearly isn't working again), but some people either don't know how to diagnose and fix rare/complex failures, or they've trained to a point that immediate action is basically a relex and each time the gun goes click they just do the immediate action drill without even thinking about it (in these cases they think of each time it failed to fire (went "click) as a new malfunction, even if it has failed again directly after their previous drill)

And the fact that it's on of the only games I can think of where you die if you accidentally (or purposely) shoot yourself

We’ve been asking for months, pleeaaaaasssseee

Jonathan has reacted to Apex Legends weapons, which have the same design as Titanfall weapons. You can watch that instead.

@@f1r3hunt3rz5 C'mon man... please tell me you're joking. Titanfall 2 has more weapons, Titan weapons, and the guns are just better realized in general. Plus, there have already been plenty of sequels to "Firearms Expert Reacts" videos on this channel, so there really isn't anything stopping them from making a Titanfall video just because it's in the same universe. Jonathan is the Keeper of Firearms *and Artillery* after all, so I'm sure he would have fun with the Titans.

@@stellle_ Hey, I'm wishing for the same thing too bro. I'm just saying the probable reason why we still haven't gotten the Titanfall video yet is because some guns have similar designs with those in Apex. Until we get that video, in the meantime, what you can do is watch that Apex Legends episode.

They can't take a footage of gameplay, because of cheaters😁😁😁

No it isn't, at least not really - it fits with the stock dust cover just fine. It's only if the user tries to fit the Vityaz-SN dust cover with the rail that it doesn't fit - usually when they've fitted a regular, non-dovetail sight first.

What Ricky said. It's a gun made specifically to vex Jonathan, so that's the reason.

@@Kraakesolv In fairness, a worthy reason..

@@rickybuhl3176 Oh, I must have been confused with the AKS-74U then.

@@un1d yep

Yeah, that's a M576 MP-APERS round, which is basically a giant shotgun shell.

He stated in another comment he was using M441 shells. The shot shell would've had visible pellets.

Even then, there have been tests of direct impacts by 40mm grenades and the impact alone would more than likely be lethal. Check out Garand Thumb's video on it as an example

I always found it weird how the PPS-43 was designed to replace the PPSH in service but after the war the Soviets seem to have preferred the PPSH, and everyone else always produced the PPSH, only exception I can think of is Vietnam making their K-50Ms out of PPSs.

@@GlamStacheessnostalgialounge k-50 are still ppsh variants

@@GlamStacheessnostalgialounge some might argue that the PPS 43 is a lower quality weapon, since it was designed for cheap mass production

@@GlamStacheessnostalgialounge I fired both a ppsh41 and a pps43 full auto at a range in Poland and Ppsh41 is way easier to control in burst despite the high rate of fire+ is way more comfortable to aim with with the wooden stock. The pps43 on the other side is more compact and much lighter, so it would be better to carry around when you’re not actively in combat . The main advantage of the pps43 is the ease of manufacture… but if I were a Soviet soldier in 1943 I would trust more a ppsh41 to keep me alive. The pps43 would rattle enough to cause dispersion at 25m off target, I would have rather used it semi auto if it had a selector. Firing ppsh41 in short burst you just see the front sight shaking but the bursts stay on target, it gets off target only if you send really long bursts down range

@@GlamStacheessnostalgialounge Maybe the soviets had larger amounts of ppsh41 stockpiles and tooling to gift off to their countries of influence , so it was just more convenient for these countries to produce the ppsh41 over the pps43. That Vietnamese copy was also a ppsh41, it just had a collapsible metal stock and pistol grip that had a somewhat similar look to the pps43s design instead of the fixed wood stock

Indeed.

Papasha + hollow points + legs = mmmmmmm

@@Kraakesolv When the irish mob meets up with ww2 soviets

Not really since you can barter at Prapor LL2 iirc

@@babixzac2112 True. It really is a favourite early wipe hunting Tagilla

imagine not just using magnum buck in a double barrel, condense that ammo down into 2 shots added bonus is no one ever takes the double barrel because it's beans

nice pfp

There are often noises off in these videos. It's a working museum. It's suggestive of the environment and not video breaking.

I've been to the museum and the bit Jonathan films in is not open to the public. If it's from the museum, then it's even louder than it seems. They do have regular shows and demonstrations involving reenactors, so it could be someone getting carried away with one of those.

@@chrisball3778 People can be working behind closed doors.

@@chrisball3778 Knowing archivists and historians, could just be them dicking about :D

There's also a machine gun that has it in the actual name, Knight's Armament Light Assault Machine Gun

I believe the box mags are indeed 35rd capacity. They are in Tarkov, anyway, so I assume Mr Ferguson misspoke. That's a detail that would be very un-Tarkov to miss.

maybe...

The guy who recorded the footage said he did not. All explosive rounds

Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter would probably be a better choice. Way more customisation options.

@@Mr_T_Badger I like suggesting The Division games because it's a 3rd person with tons of customization. Pretty much all the games on here are generic 1st person games. Plus the semi-futuristic skill devices may be worth mentioning.

@@KickyFut hmm, fair enough.
