      well technically, small d.va uses the butt of her pistol as melee and zarya her fist, so u cant say they are the same

    • @andrewsnyder9301
      @andrewsnyder9301 Před 7 lety +15

      But the butt of a pistol won't provide more force, not really it'll provide a tiny amount of mass but the real thing is the speed at which they'd need to strike.

    • @giliansterckx
      @giliansterckx Před 7 lety +6

      It's also a different type of damage. The pistol is small but hard, while a fist is softer and bigger. As such, zarya's hit is spread over a bigger are, while the gun might just leave a bleeding wound on you if they hit you hard enough.

      @@who_m7315 Most driving games don't have lamp posts and the like actually break, they usually just detach from the ground, which is what they're supposed to do in the real world. Trees, on the other hand, are meant to withstand the forces of nature for sometimes well over 100 years, and have no built in safety features. In the real world, if you were to hit a lamp post with your car doing 100 kph, your car would be fucked, but as long as you didn't hit anything else behind the lamp post, you would live. If you hit a tree at the same speed, you would likely die

      you think that's broken? theres a move in the game that its hitbox comes out frame 1, is also invincible frame 1, and be jumped out, can be used to cancel a jump, can combo into itself, kill move or grab, and it can kill enemies if hit by it off stage. also it has set knock back

    • @CocoaNutCakery

      Kalas Hydra I'm saying that maybe they started to make them cheaper or started to make them with a material that has less shatter resistance, perhaps under the logic that it would make them safer if someone crashed into them. I'm not saying that it's some advanced alloy. I'm saying that maybe the POLICY changed. It's the government. All they need is a single protest or news story to piss their pants and for someone to make whatever change the protestors want as their major policy platform.

      No, because we know for a fact that this is based in America, we know that America already uses this system, and a rehaul of a perfectly functioning system is unlikely in the foreseeable future, and you can see some signs have rust patterns that are quite substantial, indicating a number of years, so I believe they are the galvanized steel currently used in real life america

    The really scary part is how strong the punches would be if they actually used kinetic linking, rotated the fist to maximize imparted force (as used in the basic karate punch), or actually put their weight into it, rather than simply extending the arm.

    Dude, you fucked up. 1 cm^2 isn't 0.01 m^2, it's 0.0001 m^2 because the centi is also squared. That should lower the punching speed to 24 m/s or so (trusting your other numbers) or about 50 mph. This is still really fast but a lot more sensible.

    • @abomesai18
      @abomesai18 Před 7 lety

      No, you square it outside of the unit. Like if I had 5 cm^2, I ignore the cm for a second, just multiply 5x5 to get 25, reintroduce the cm, then convert to meters. would come out to 0.25 m or 0.05m^2.

    • @tristanroberts
      @tristanroberts Před 7 lety +4

      Nope. That isn't true and, it really should be obvious if you think about a 1 m * 1 m square. Now divide each edge into cm. Now there are 100 divisions per edge; if you draw lines across them you get 10,000 1 cm * 1 cm squares in the 1 m * 1 m square and therefore 1 cm^2 is 0.0001 m^2.
      This is also why 1 l is 1 dm^3 (a dm being 10 cm or 0.1 m) even though 1 ml is 1 cm^3: 1 cm^3 = 1 ml = 0.001 dm^3 => 1 cm^3 = 0.001 dm^3
      Like, it sucks that it's written this ambiguously, but the prefix is *always* included within the power.

    • @BlueCosmology
      @BlueCosmology Před 7 lety +1

      You can't convert cm^2 to just metres, 0.25m is in no way at all the same as 0.05m^2 or 5cm^2.
      1 cm is (1/100)m, therefore 1 cm^2 is (1/100)^2m^2 = (1/10,000)m^2=0.0001m^2.
      Tristan is completly correct. 5cm^2 is 0.0005m^2, not 0.25m which is non sensical to say or 0.05m^2 which is just wrong. These "the science" videos are almost always badly researched nonsense.

    • @tristanroberts

      tristan roberts It's certainly not his biggest mistake in these videos.
      You'd think that someone would realise that when you can't manage to solve an equation, you can't just swap the signs and pretend it's meaningful. Yet that didn't stop him from just randomly swapping the sign in the lorentz transformation in the mass effect video because he couldn't solve it.

    Dear Austin,
    did you really think before this video, that Overwatch heroes/villains are humans?
    First of all, let's clear out obvious once, like super intelligent gorilla Winston, war machine Bastion and enlightened robot Zenyatta.
    What's left are all just petty humans, right? *WRONG*
    Most of Overwatch heroes/villains are actually superhumans or have some kind of enhancement, like suits and mechs.
    Let's start with that:
    Genji - cyborg, only remaining human parts are probably brain and partially face
    McCree - robotic arm prosthesis
    Pharah - wearing some kind of suit, comparable to Iron Man, later suits
    Reaper - formerly super soldier due to the drug, later became something like a ghost/wrath
    Soldier 76 - super soldier due to the drug
    Tracer - possibly also super soldier, but mostly, she's out of time, literally
    Junkrat - radiation freak
    Torbjörn - several robotic prostheses
    Widowmaker - probably super soldier/assassin, her heartbeat is so slow, that her skin turned blue(how?!)
    D.Va - usually in her mecha suit, that explains everything
    Reinhardt - wearing some kind of suit, comparable to the older version of Iron Man's suit, Mark I
    Roadhog - radiation freak
    Zarya - the strongest woman ever, plus she's Russian
    Ana - probably super soldier, she survived the shot in her eye, speaks for itself
    Mercy - very close to Wolverine with her healing/regenerative abilities
    So, the most normal members and possibly fully humans are: Hanzo, Mei, D.Va without mecha, Zarya, Lúcio and Symmetra.
    And even with these we have no idea, if they're not somehow specially enhanced.

    Pascals are a measure of pressure, right? If so, then multiplying the 80 Gigapascals by your area should net you the force required, not pascals again.
    In addition, force isn't calculated by looking at velocity, it's derived from the rate of change of momentum, so either you're not sharing something, or you're just pulling numbers out of your ass.

    I actually thought you would measure the damage it did to health bars, compare it to the jouhle/hp we have with bastion to find out it's force but you wen't on with something that proves it's actually harder and that the quick meele of an ana alone should instantly kill roadhog

      Tracer's bullet's do a max of 6 damage per round (according to the Overwatch wiki), so regardless of whether punching does 25, 30 or 40 points of damage, the punch is still doing 4 to 7 times more damage than a bullet. Either that or Tracer has twin BB guns... hmm... that could explain a lot.

      Now I'm not claiming to know everything about the topic but I would say it's because in this situation and others we're pretty short sighted. I've asked my science teachers the same thing and I usually hear that it's because it would be pretty tough considering most everyone would have to buy new equipment for the new system. Long term this isn't that big of a deal and it will make life easier but people don't want to have to spend money. This actually happened back around the 1930's and it didn't work. I know this is a lot more of an answer than you wanted but it's better than "Americans are just dumb." We're not dumb, we're stubborn and short sighted

    Gotta say Austin. Higgy and I have always loved your content! I especially love listening to them as I'm driving to work. I did always find it quite odd how these characters can destroy these things in the environment with such ease.
    There is something I've been wondering and perhaps you (or anyone else in the comment section) can help me figure out. What is so special about electricity that is able to penetrate Reinhardt's shield? Is it really penetrating the shield, or is it because the electricity flows through the emblem where the shield expands from? It's the only explanation I could come up with... until the recent patch where Mei's robot (her ult) can go through the shield now.
    Anyway, thanks for the videos as always, Austin! They're always great to watch~

    So wait, Lucio fights using music, so if the gun is stonger (or as strong) as his hand, shouldn't healing his allies make them go deaf? Since he is using the music after all, or is there some secret lore where it explains every single detail about his gun and it shoots something completely different? Or did I just discover why he has earphones?

  • @thulean.uruk-hai

    @10:20 - math fail; there are 10000 cm^2 per m^2, not 100 ... a square meter is 100cm per *side*, containing 10k cm^2. You should have wondered how a square with a side of 5 would have an area of 5 ... and I can't get to my calculator by that 0.053 number looks wrong too ...

    • @thulean.uruk-hai
      @thulean.uruk-hai Před 7 lety +7

      OK, it's a case of what we called "math magic" back in Naval Nuclear Propulsion training ... equation was wrong, but somehow magically got the right answer. The result is indeed just over 5cm: (5.08^2) - ((5.08-(2*0.278))^2) = 5.3398cm^2 for the area of the shear point. So the error was when you converted it to m^2 ... 0.000534m^2 not 0.053m^2, because you divided by 100 instead of 10000. C'mon, Austin, if nothing else typing "convert sq cm to sq m" into google would have gotten ya a converter for that. ;)
      Which, BTW, throws your force calcs off by a factor of 100 too. Still an insane amount of pressure required, but only 1% as insane as it would have been. XD
      Which makes sense, since if it required a semi with a wedge travelling at Mach 7 (as you proposed) to shear that post, how in the hell would we have ever seen it happen already?
