I think the hand cannon of a side arm with three barrels that looked a bit like a revolver to Jonathan, I think a good comparison would be the Metal storm weapon system, maybe some how incorporating metal storm technology so it uses electricity and various other things to shoot rounds out of a barrel
Lol when they buffed the Mozambique they didn't change the visual design of the gun to hold more than 3 shots 😂👏
didn't get to the R-301.
Wish they covered some of the old Titanfall guns as well, like the Sidewinder.
7:51
Oooh baby, a triple!
A titanfall one of these would be much better than an apex one as it's much more grounded and generally less cartoony than apex, even if the guns have almost identical designs, as well as more lore implications as to the context which pilots use them in, also i just wanna see him look at the smart pistol
Can u do enlisted?
Imagine if Jonathan reacts to girls frontline
Pay Day series guns plus customization
is the gun on the background so unholly that you had to put on a cross?
why does he kinda look like a 25 year old with dyed hair
I would love to see Jonathan comment on the evolution of German WW2 weapons in Wolfenstein New Order or New Colossus
Should look at Post Scriptum
Id love to see him react to borderlands weapons. Its not realistic but seeing unrealistic things in an expert perspective is really interesting.
I'd love to see more Bf1 weapon reactions. Was hoping for commentary on the self loading rifles and the gadgets. Please and thanks.
Nice, but at 8:45 when he starts to speak about Rampage LMG is a Ramya Parekh designed weapon, is a Rampart so is one of the best and crazy LMGs made on the outlands and is Tip Top quality .
Its a crazy idea for a gun but "If I get taken out, it better be with a Rampart.".
Please do Borderlands 3! There are guns that use a lawnmower engine to fire! I also want to see him just lose his mind over how the firearms work.
FINALLY
If I remember correctly i think the kraber fires 14.5mm cartridges idk if that helps with explaining why it’s manually operated or not but I thought it might help if I mentioned it
Please do one on Killzone firearms!
React to Half-Life 1 and 2 weapons?
Obscure thing, but I'd like to see Jonathan react to the guns of Temporal Assassin, A gmod total conversion, I just personally think he might find some of the weapons interesting
12:18
This is funny, since the R99 and R201 is already "recreated" with the CMMG Banshee or Resolute in FN 5.7
I feel the hemlok seems more like a SIG 552 rifle with an RAS handguard
If anything the big revelation of this video is that Apex really needs new Inspect animations on the old weapons
Johnathan should check out the Killzone series. Lot of weird designs.
the Mozambique originally had three shots but because it was under powered and needed to be reloaded too often the ammo count was increased but the model was kept the same.
Whoever xoPERSIA is they are not very good at apex in the training arena.
Show him gun setups from phantom forces
Jonathan should react to the guns from Totally Accurate Battlegrounds if he hasn't already. I'd like to see his reaction to the glockinator.
Please react to Dead Space 2 weapons!
I really would like to see Jonathan taking another look at EFT, with a focus on all of the different types of malfunctions and clearing procedures there are now (and maybe a look at the two new guns, the HK G28 and FN SCAR)
o want tp react tp tje semtomeñ 🙁
the thing about the spitfire looking like it can be belt fed, there is a variant of it in titanfall lore that is in a mounted position, i'm pretty sure its belt fed
I would love for him to look at Titanfall's weapons, many are similar but Apex has a much more cartoony vibe, I think he would be more impressed by the older (and better) games
i need me a R301 in real life
You gotta do Valorant now. Their weapons are pretty interesting
titanfall weapons use electricity to fire
Because the wingman hits like a ruck with headshots
do Dying Light
Probably way too late for Jonathan to see this comment, but my theory for the Mozambique (the weird shotgun pistol) is that the clip uses some kind of technology similar to Metal Storm. Tl;Dr: caseless rounds stacked front-to-end, fired electronically instead of with traditional machinery and/or propellant. So instead of firing shot from a single shell, it fires a volley of three projectiles from each of the three fixed barrels (I don't know if the Apex variation uses multiple barrels, but I remember that the version in Titanfall 2 definitely does). So we can see each barrel chamber in the clip, but each chamber holds 6 projectiles for the total of 6 shots.
The standard intermediate cartridge (in Titanfall 1 and 2, at least) is the 8.19mm polymer cased round, used in the R-101 and Hemlok family of guns, probably others as well, brass cased ammo is actually fairly uncommon, as far as I'm aware.
i love the fact he doesn't try to bash on games for lack of realism and acknowledges when something is done for gameplay purposes or just rule of cool.
Would love to see csgo guns, and how accurate they are
I think it'd be interesting for him to react to some of the "tips" Bangalore gives (especially the one about clips)
Look at transformers fall of cybertron guns
Where are the rest of the guns?
You can fit six rounds in the Mozambique if it's a triple-barrel electrically fired gun with two rounds in each chamber.
Go ahead make a video on Warframe's weapons
