      when in reality and even in game code its refered to as a MG, and the art book refers to it as a MG for Power armor suits (instead of having everyone running around whit a Minigun they would run around whit the "assult rifle in MG setting).
      Because if it was in default automatic whit a drum mag and a function that if you was in turret mode or in a power armor (NPC and player) whit a belt feed backpack/ground it would had been a lot more welcomed.

    For anyone wanting to mod fallout 4 for the first time, try to avoid downloading a mod just because it has the most endorsements and downloads or you will end up with guns like the m2216, which only has the endorsements because it was one of the first weapon mods to be made for fallout 4 back in 2016.

      I think most of the "big guns" of Fallout are intended for use in PA, but the games let you use them without PA if you want. Some games (New Vegas?) have a Strength requirement for weapons, even, so someone with an inhuman 10 Str can use a Minigun unassisted but mere mortals probably want the Str boost from power armour.

      Gonna be honest, I know F4’s AR design is funky and Seussian but I like it. I think the majority of gripes with it comes from the fact that its even called an Assault Rifle, which it wasnt designed to be. The handmade AK from Nuka World was cut from the base game during development, and the intended LMG got renamed to Assault Rifle to fill the niche. Funky series-original weapons that dont make complete sense have always been a part of Fallout (the original 10mm pistol from the Isometric games was a strange conglomeration of a mag-fed pistol and a revolver; Fallout 3 changed it to a more Deagle-inspired look) and I think its more fun to have a few oddball guns in there than constantly reuse the same iconic modern firearms over and over again like every other shooter does. Thats not to say that actual real-world guns shouldnt be there, I just think the stylistic variety is more interesting and gives the Pre-War time period its own identity.

  • @fireaza
    @fireaza Před 2 lety +1

    The VR game _Into the Radius_ might tickle Jonathan's fancy! Aside from the usual more realistic firearm interactivity you typically get with VR shooters, this one also includes the need to manually load your magazines (which are physical objects in the game that need to retained, since you can't use the gun without the correct magazine), bullet by bullet, from ammo boxes, in addition to needing to clean and maintain your guns and magazines. I'm not talking an option in a menu either! To clean the barrel, you need to tear off a bit of paper, attach it to the cleaning rod, and jam it into the barrel and move it back and forward. To clean the outside, you spray on some WD-40 and scrub it with a toothbrush. And you need to get at *ALL* areas of the gun, it won't be properly clean unless you scrub *EVERYWHERE!*

  • @Dudeman9339
    @Dudeman9339 Před 2 lety

    Jonathan,
    Clearly that Gyrojet HMG has a tab in the mag well that pushes a follower stop out of the way and allows the rounds to rise past the aligning friction pad at the top. It's gas port operated and only a tiny amount of energy would really be needed to cycle the weapon considering it wouldn't need to have as strong a lock to contain the relatively gradual launch pressure. The focus would be repeatable alignment of the non-uniform projectile (extending fins are tricky) and consistent ignition and launch pressure. The best way to do that would be to have as much of the feed mechanism in the receiver as possible so that is likely where "feed lips" might be found.

  • @elizawulf8180
    @elizawulf8180 Před 3 měsíci

    To my understanding, the Mk41 Gyrojet and Magnum Revolver Rifle are based on concept art made for the cancelled Fallout Online game - V13. These concepts were likely cut from the game before the game itself was cancelled. (There was also the Airforce Power Armor, and an energy weapon - the Murdelizer)
    Some of the makeshift weapons, like the Makeshift Handgun, Makeshift Shotgun, & Crude Blowback also were inspired by a mix of cut concepts in Fallout 4 and earlier cancelled Fallout games.
