You know it's good when the literal creator is giddy when the plan works out "live" instead of fully testing things out before..one of the (many) reasons I love Anton's devlogs; even he's not 100% sure what's gonna happen
@@willlokeer5469 Anton is the epitome of what game dev should be, taking pleasure in your work. I especially enjoy when he finds the devlog bug when showing stuff off.
Ah finally, a new way to benchmark! 100 cannons, 100 C4 to blow them all simultaneously, 10-100 40mm HE down each barrel with random physical object to accompany them (Grandma's Grapeshot). A miracle if the game doesn't crash! Thanks for the update Anton! :D
I always love the 4th of July updates since it’s always 2 days from my birthday, which means I get to play with all the stuff Anton adds in for the holidays on my birthday! Thanks as always for the fun surprise Anton!
12:14 I love imagining Anton working on H3 to make a great game for people to enjoy. But I also love imagining that it's just a grown man working on his inner kid's dream toy. The laugh says it all. I love your game, Anton. Thanks for always keeping it interesting and exciting.
Finally. The cannon update. How long it has been sense flintlocks and muskets... I love how you can shove random crap into it. I cant wait to have fun with this! All we need left is the mortar update.
Looks like a model 1841 six pounder field gun, used extensively during the Mexican-American war and was widely used throughout the American Civil war due to it's lightness, was a great field gun for cavalry, and "light" batteries (some liked to call them flying batteries, for how quickly they moved around the battlefield) This is so awesome
cant wait for Anton to add a battleship/submarine a few years later and a frew more years later turn it into a funcional moving take and hold-wave survival map
Y'know a long long time ago I suggested on the subreddit, a cannon, like a genuine, functioning cannon. I don't remember specifics, but it was one of the sliding breech ones, and it's cool that we finally have a cannon in H3VR. I'm not even going to guess how long or hard it was to add it in, but it's awesome that it's here. Happy 4th of July to all my fellow Americans out there, also, Happy Belated Canada Day to all of our Maple-loving folks up there in Canada. Much love to all from Wisconsin
Kinda wish we have a hand-held version of a cannon so we can fire it out of hipfire... Or a gatling roman candles. But... this is very welcoming. Thank you, Anton!
This is easily the best thing you could've added for the 4th, we're all so lucky to have such a great dev. Anywhos gonna go play with this cannon... *BOOM* THANK YOU ANTOOOOOON *splat*
Someone: Tchaikovsky, cannons are not instruments. Tchaikovsky probably: Yes they are and I'm going to use 21 of them. Someone: Tchaikovsky no. Tchaikovsky: Tchaikovsky yes. (1812 Overture plays) TCHAIKOVSKY ALWAYS YES!
Yo anton, do you have plans for other crew served weapons? An "emplacements" category might be a good option if you ever plan to add something like a tripod mounted .50 or howitzer (now that the precedent has been set for this kinda thing). Honestly I'm just super interested in what that means for future content
You, my my incredibly long haired friend, are a genius! I have a cannon mod, I rarely use it because it's so-so, but I think I will be using this almost exclusively; for the next week. Thank you for this, thank you for maintaining game and remember to keep those luscious locks behind the cannon; or you'll end up screaming like a cooked Sosig. Happy 4th of July to all my American friends, don't give up your rights to collect exorbitant amounts of brass and remember keep your John Hancocks in your pants; no matter how much whiskey you drink...
Absolutely insane. I have been playing this game since July 2017, and there are still so many updates and new weapons being added. Other games could really learn from this. I am so impressed with this game. Thank you so much for the incredible support and the love that goes into it.
On the note of being able to rotate the rod like a dagger, could you do the same thing with the musket and flintlock ramrods? it would make reloading properly a lot easier also a couple of bugs for the cannon: when aiming down, the lack of friction makes shots slide right back out when put in. also when you push the worm/sponge/ram into the cannon it will frequently glitch and pop out of the back or the sides when pushed in at slightly the wrong angle or too far
If h3 had multiplayer shit would be wild like imagine community ran war servers with all the weapons and artillery like the oversized 1911 and now this cannon it would be the greatest vr game of and the airstrike
Anton, you are a saint amongst men. Thank you so much for working hard on this to deliver it in time for the holiday. Happy 4th and never stop being you.
Hey man!!! You make WONDERFUL updates every single week! It makes me think like you do it tirelessly. Please take a break every now and then! Your updates keep us more than fulfilled. You are the greatest Anton!
I have always wanted a game that would simulate artillery in vr! I hope you keep developing these types of weapons. I would love to see ww1 and ww2 simulated artillery in a game like H3. Great work!!
I think it would be iconic if we added a more limited version of the cannon which is marginally more, ah, portable. It would be hilarious to take this cannon model, attach a chainsaw grip to it a la the M2 we have, and just have a cannon that whenever you fire it, shoots backwards out of your hands and smashes into anyone behind. You’d lose a lot of the cool elements of the stationary cannon - no custom loads, for example - but I think it would be a cool idea
Anton you are by far the best and most entertaining game dev out there. I followed you since almost day one. Can't believe how many years it has been at this point. Happy 4th of july.
I really like this cannon. Surprised they havent been added before. Someone already modeled the FK96 field gun and the Krupp 210mm howitzer from battlefield 1 into the game. Knew you would be able to do it:)
I always enjoy the exotic, off-the-wall additions to this game. Eager to try this stuff out tomorrow. You know what else is exotic and off-the-wall? The AN-94 and AEK-971 balanced recoil rifles!
I love the canon, my only complaint is that it’s hard to aim. But I learned if you put the tactical laser 1 or 2 down the barrel with the rails facing down it will act like a laser bore sight. My genius scares me sometimes I hit the gong in friendly 45 from the weapon spawner and can hit the water tower reliably in Arizona from the spawner too. The only more I could hope for is some crazy “tactical assault civil war canon” with quad rails in the Christmas or April fools update Imagine the civil war canon with a sniper scope
this is awesome i can't wait to tally ho my way through t&h. the night vision really makes me want a dark facility to sneak through. almost as much as i want the 30-40 Krag-Jørgensen!
We have a cannon, we have a flintlock handgun, now we need a musket and a blunderbuss. Also, Redcoat sosigs and a muzzle loader only mode for Take and Hold.
I know this has absolutely nothing to do with this exact video, but i think adding more gens of glocks in the game would be a good idea, because i think the gen 5 glocks has some pretty cool models and i think a lot of players would like that too
Anton giggling at comitting a war-crime to sausage people to show the audience the effect of cannon (The modders are going to be wild with this function)
What about a 4 bore rifle? The barrel is about an inch wide so it could be a good hand held weapon to stick some smaller objects into. Or maybe a blunderbuss?
Can't wait to see this used for an "I own a cannon for home defense" skit
this is the very first thing I thought of
cannot wait for the triangular bayonet attachment follow-up, tally-ho, lads!
TALLY HO, LADS!
@@HellJustFroze aton, make that a reality so we can TOTALLY do the founding fathers gag in h3VR
And please make a musket bayonet
Just as the founding fathers intended.
The idea that I might try for a grenade as Ricky Dicky Random and it just spawns me a fucking cannon is killing me.
This needs to happen
I didn't think about the possibility of that... That is hilarious.
Anton’s childish giggle after firing an RPG rocket with the cannon is so relatable 😂😂😂 loving it Anton! Keep up the good work!

Was just about to comment on that! Love this guy and the pure joy of firing an rpg out of a cannon😂
I would also like to see a Gatling Gun mounted to this carriage.
Good idea.
@@AntonHand it'd be neat if you could just mount anything that normally has a bipod to it
@@AntonHand this would go well with the existing heavy guns we already have..
Funny i had the opposite idea since its not real life like you could hip fire the cannon
@@kodi0223 I am Heavy Weapons Guy... _(Pulls out a fucking cannon)_ ...And _THIS..._ is my weapon.

I love your game, Anton. Thanks for always keeping it interesting and exciting.
12:18 That cackle will haunt my dreams tonight and I am totally okay with that
my emotional support cannon needs a thermal optic and laser beams
Imagine jurassic park in the wienerverse, and it's just colossal dino nuggets
That would actually be incredible, if there's not horrible copyright involved with shaped nugs I would love for that to be put in
*starts off vid staring at a strange structure off in the distance*
"Hey anton whatcha got there?"
"A cannon :)"
It kinda looks like the climbing course when he was testing grappling hooks and ziplines
Yeah the zipline course / "Aggro-Crag" was moved further out on the Arizona Range, it used to be front and center for so long
Finally. The cannon update. How long it has been sense flintlocks and muskets... I love how you can shove random crap into it. I cant wait to have fun with this!
All we need left is the mortar update.
we have a mortar already, I would love more artillery though
There's already a mortar dude
@@AntonHandnot a 1800s mortar
@@AntonHandHave you ever considered a blunderbuss at some point? I wouldn't blame you if you don't because of technical reason.
@@danthonygregory4157 blunderbuss that can fire tin cans and golfballs

This is so awesome
If it isn't already, please make this something that can be rolled in Ricky Random
This is like the final stage of the dynamite cannon everyone made in gmod, and I couldn't be more excited to bring my pc to its knees with it
Ah yes, the days of when spamming the dynamite button brought your Windows XP crapbucket to a crawl.
cant wait for Anton to add a battleship/submarine a few years later and a frew more years later turn it into a funcional moving take and hold-wave survival map
i feel like the freedomfetti round for the cannon should have an eagle screech instead of the noisemaker
I feel like everyone watching shared the same giggle you had when we saw the RPG Cannon work
sure do! All the idea's toiling in my head and yours! hahahaha

Getting strong old gmod "stuff random shit into a tube and use dynamite to propel it" vibes. Beautiful work Anton
"Naked volunteers! the best kind volunteers!"
-Anton 2024
... Now I wanna see if armoured foes could withstand the canister shot
Tested (in spite of a broken controller), and yes, the cannon can in fact go through Heavy NVG Sosig armor.
Oh man, imagine playing Take and Hold and you roll the friggin CANNON 😂
Sosig says "what was that" as you roll up and turns the corner only to be friggin atomized by canister shot lmao
People will find a way to reload it in less than a second.
"What the devil!?"
@@holynder3181I mean you can fire by shooting into it, so that's already a start.
12:14 - If that unhinged giggling doesn't bring a smile to your face, then I don't think anything will.
One step closer to performing the 1812 overture in H3.
Cant wait to see some poor bastard draw this as Ricky Random in Take and Hold
Kinda wish we have a hand-held version of a cannon so we can fire it out of hipfire...
Or a gatling roman candles.
But... this is very welcoming. Thank you, Anton!
Just like the founding fathers intended.
4 ruffians break into my house… what the devil?
@@Crashman-1005 as i grab my powdered wig and Kentucky rifle...
guess I better dawn my painfully unergonomic headset to have some funtime
This now means we can get Artillery pieces with the pull string thing.
I burst out laughing when the RPG ammo went out. It's the most H3VR thing I can imagine
Holy Tchaikovsky, Anton!
Bro this Has me stoked for the Tug boat update! /s Thank you Anton for the amazing update yet again. Much love and Peace be to you.
This is easily the best thing you could've added for the 4th, we're all so lucky to have such a great dev. Anywhos gonna go play with this cannon...
*BOOM*
THANK YOU ANTOOOOOON
*splat*
That's a lot of freedom right there.
I'll admit, I really liked how crazy detaled the flintlock is.
Can't wait for H3VR part 5 where Jonathan Ferguson (keeper of firearms AND artillery) gets to review artillery

Not really. It's not something I know much about, and the resources of existing models in that category with sufficient detail is really thin
@@AntonHand ah, a shame. A pak40 would be pretty fun. Thanks for the response tho, man
Now we just need a picatinny adapter for this
Make sure to leave fusion cores and ammo for Liberty Prime tonight!
12:17 is the laugh of a man who not only is causing wanton destruction, but also seeing that his code actually works.
Imagine spawning in t&h and you're just greeted by a massive heck off cannon
Someone's already working on the "home defense how out founding fathers intended" me as we speak
Now we just need a large bell and an orchestra and we can do the 1812 overture in it's full glory
"aaaand ROCKET CANNON!"

seeing both this cannon and the giant pistol in the same video made me wonder if the giant pistol rounds can be fired from the cannon
now we need a percussion cap musket
That's a nice patina. Props to the person who made the skin.
On the note of being able to rotate the rod like a dagger, could you do the same thing with the musket and flintlock ramrods? it would make reloading properly a lot easier

Your videos blessed the baggage carousel and the carousel gave me my bag in a reasonable time.
Take and hold cannon run is upon us
This has been the most hilarious youtube video I've seen in a while! I'm SO looking forward to messing around with cannons in H3VR lol.
Happy 100k Anton, thank you for all you have done for the vr community, here’s to many more🎉🎉
Now I would absolutely love a revolutionary era map. Sosigs in redcoats, armed with muskets, with cannons and flintlocks to defend an area
"Oh it's stop dancing for us😢" this is bad
Enjoy your 4th of July everyone! Grill some hot dogs, play some horseshoes, and toss some hand grenades!
