    "It's happening again!"
    Sure these franken-weapons might have no practical value whatsoever in the real world, but I will admit it's impressive the amount of customisation this game has when you alter the weapons. The only other series I can think of which let you do crazy stuff like that was Army of Two, back in the day.

    one of the best things about tarkov:
    you could have been playing the game for years and have the most modified and most tactical AK which can one shot drop anyone and will laser you across the map and have full tier IV body armour, but someone with a makarov PM who just spawned in as a scav can still one shot you.
    i love that.

    Former U.S. Marine here. I used to practice catching chambered rounds upon ejection at ranges. Sometimes after certain shooting drills there's a couple rounds left in the magazine. To clear the weapon before stepping off the firing line, I'd tilt my rifle 90 degrees left and down slightly, rack back the charging handle, and catch the round out of mid air. Got pretty good at it too!

    2:25 having been in the military for almost 30 years, having had multiple deployments all over the world; I have seen this done with rifles and pistols by more than a handful of people. It takes skill and practice. Plus, its easier and quicker than trying to get that last round out by rolling this pistol/rifle upside down, dropping said round and having to bend over to find and pick it up.

    • @aussierule
      @aussierule 2 роки тому +53

      @@jonathanferguson1211 You can take the mag out, unload each round, and load a mixture of "bullet salad" if you wanted to assuming they are all the same caliber. You can also carry around magazines or top load the gun one bullet at a time, an example being the Remington 700 bolt action rifle. You hold your reload key and scroll the mousewheel over the method of reloading you want to do. Also, the ammo for the civilian semi automatic AK chambered in .366 will fit in a universal 7.62x39 magazine meant for the semi or select fire 7.62 AK's, so you can have some pretty embarrassing moments if you accidentally bring a magazine from your stash that looks like all the others but just has the wrong ammo in it, effectively disabling your rifle. You can eject rounds at will with a keybind in the case of say, reloading to a magazine with better penetration ammo to get that old round out of there and chamber that fresh pen round. Or just for fun if you want. Your firearm can also malfunction if it's not maintained and in bad shape causing you to have to clear jams frequently. And this is just a fraction of all the cool unrestricted gameplay features.
      Last thing I wanna touch on in case anyone else is intrigued by how awesome this game is. You can wear body armor, helmets, and chestrigs. Your ammo HAS to be either in your vest or if the mag is small enough in your pockets (pistol). You can bring in as many loaded magazines as you want but you can only access as many as you put in your vest which for most people is typically 3 mags plus 1 in the gun. On top of this you can bring loose ammo and top up your mags. This becomes a big factor in gameplay usually leading to a lull in prolonged firefights where players retreat, top up mags, and bandage/medkit/splint etc. if they need it. Gunfights either last a little while or you're dead instantly. There's some in between but not much.
      Your body armor can be anywhere from class 1-6 with each tier becoming harder to penetrate requiring higher quality rounds and harder to acquire the really high end stuff. You need to know the capabilities of your ammo moreso than the specific rifle or pistol you decided to use. There are 135 unique types of ammo in Tarkov strictly for player firearms, (yes ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY FIVE TYPES OF AMMO!!) 3 mounted weapons and an FN40GL Mk2 grenade launcher. The desirable ammo traits are usually enough penetration to get through class 4 and 5 armor and enough flesh damage to be able to take them down with 2 vs 3 shots to the chest. The traits are as follows:
      Penetration Power - A number used to determine bullet's penetration chances, and damage inflicted on armor when it fails to penetrate.
      Damage Value - The number of Hit Points subtracted from Target's Total HP Pool when a bullet manages to penetrate through Armor.
      Armor Damage Ratio (%) - Percentage of Bullet's Damage that is done to Armor when it fails to penetrate.
      Projectile Speed - Bullet's initial velocity in meters per second (this speed lowers over distance because of air friction, gravity, humidity, and some other factors that are reflected in the game).
      Fragmentation Chance - A likelihood of a bullet splitting/splintering after entering Target's body. Bullets that have Fragmented after impact deal high bonus Damage to Targets.
      Ricochet Chance - Rather self-explanatory. Chance of bullet bouncing off a surface when it is shot at an angle.
      And that's only going over ammo and armor. There's so much more it's insane. FLIR, NVG's, Faceshields that stop smaller rounds, actual mil dots and realism in the scopes whom Eotech, Walther, Leupold just to name a few, have partnered up with. There are a lot of manufacturers that are partnered and represented in the game including Lonestar Armory from my state of Texas with their TX-15 carbine being featured! Semi auto only, civilian specs just like in real life. Great game to anyone interested.

    In the beginning when he says the “slide didn’t lock open”. That’s not due to last round in the magazine. It’s a failure to fire / feed. The game has jamming and failure to fire mechanics based on durability and maintenance / cleaning of the firearms. Ie The gun jammed. Happens sometimes.

    Jonathan, maybe someone has answered your question already, but I'm pretty sure that the slide didn't lock back because there was no magazine inserted in the pistol. There was a round in the chamber which the player fired, and the pistol fully cycled, but the lack of a magazine prevented the slide from locking back. This is because the last-round hold open feature is typically engaged by the magazine follower pushing up on the inside of the slide release lever.
    It's actually a really cool feature that I haven't seen in any other game. In fact, I think Tarkov even has animations for the player manually inserting a cartridge into the chamber when they don't have any magazines, which your average player will never even see.
