    Fun fact the A-10 warthogs “Hellfire” machine gun has so much firepower it can only be fired in bursts, as it slows down the jets speed, and could be significant enough for it to fall out of the sky under prolonged fire.

    I have had that feeling for so long now Jack. The only thing really keeping this from being more popular is the simple fact that it's just not advertised enough. Some people will say, "It's better that it's underground" or something to that effect. But, the gameplay itself will always organically create the community. We need to see this game advertised more. End.

    • @touchgrasstryhard8604
      @touchgrasstryhard8604 Před 2 lety +25

      Disagree. The game has a very tough learning curve and the vast majority of players don't have the patience for that or have the ego that can take a bruising for a long time.
      I started in PVP, got my ass handed to me over and over, so I went to PVE for a while to learn the maps and get a better feel for the gunplay. Returned to PVP and haven't look back.....2k+ levels later....
      More advertising wouldn't hurt, never does, but that's not the reason it is a niche game.

    • @OlderThanAverageGamer
      @OlderThanAverageGamer Před 2 lety +22

      @@touchgrasstryhard8604 I get where you're going but, don't think it's totally accurate. Compared to games like Squad, Hell Let Loose, Post Scriptum, etc.. ISS is much easier to get. I started on PvP and loved it from day one as did the majority of people I know who play it. Many of whom were coming to ISS on console in a wave to find something fill the void of BF and COD.
      The fact that the game is HARD or HARDCORE for sure, is that I mean about the community cultivating itself. There are a lot more people out there interested in this style of play and honestly, it's the only one really doing it in a way that's so easily digestible. Game modes aren't complicated and roles are simple but important. Again, this isn't Squad.

    That “triangular front sight post” is called an FSB or front sight block, because the M4 is direct impingement it feeds gas through a tube to the bolt carrier to cycle the spent casing and feed a new cartridge.
    Flat top is typically referring to the upper reciever and not the FSB because you have upper recievers with forged carry handles.
    You can see though that the “flat top” function just changes out the FSB (front sight gas block) for a standard gas block without a front sight

    How can something be "criminally underrated" that you've never played before? Oh wait, I know.

    @jackfrags The first Rainbow Six game I ever played was RS: Rouge Spear on the PC, at the time the gfx were really good, but obviously today's games make it look 8-bit lol but the gameplay was really fantastic, very much a medium milsim.
    Next truly fantastic milsim I played after that was Operation Flashpoint that I played with a mate and my bro, was good times.
    After that before I knew it Battlefield: 1942 came out and I was all over that like ants in a picnic basket 👍. Anyways love your channel dude, have a good one!

    On PC this is a good game but on PS5 it is amazing.
    .
    Not because it plays better or looks better but because it is really the only thing of its kind on the system.
    Also I like playing ot on the PS5 because Everyone has the same specs and controller and there are no hackers.

    Tho i play at SEA server its mostly people speaking maderin or something. But the thing that makes me happy is that everyone tries their best to speak english and communicate. We have a lot of fun this game is a gem

    You "jump back" into games with quite a suspicious timing. They need all the good PR they can get for sure though.

    Idk why, but this game and BF1, it’s a weird sense of satisfying watching teammates get dropped.

    I really miss skirmish with the huge maps, they completely changed the game since launch :(
