    Capturing shotgun gameplay in Warzone for this episode was about as enjoyable as chewing Lego bricks.
    Anyway! Thanks for watching another episode, make sure to come back tomorrow (19th December), for our first episode of Loadout!
    Peace and love,
    The guy who says the things at the start of the episode xoxo

      Are you telling me you don't chew Legos for fun? Let me tell you, you are missing out for sure.
      Stepping on Lego's we can all get behind that work of the devil. My room used to be a Lego minefield. I probably had more Lego bricks than hairs on the heads of myself and my parents combined. All of them were constantly scattered across my floor.

      Agree. some other major gaming news service is hopping on the “Gun Expert Reviews” train with Ian McCollum, and while I LOVE Ian, I think he does much better as a strictly technical presenter because it appears that he doesn’t have the gaming experience that Jonathan does, there are less “design compromise related to game design” comments which really puts things in perspective. I like Jonathan’s presentation a lot and he’s just really funny. I love his persona.
      Edit: Allow me to reiterate that I really enjoy McCollum’s content. I just think Jonathan is way better at “casual eloquence”, for lack of a better term. His presenting feels a lot like happy banter with a friend. Plus his gaming tidbits are truly enjoyable.

    Fun fact: After I watched your video on the Vanguard Weapons I looked closely on the M1 Garand reload animation, when i played Warzone. They fixed the animation! Now the character is pressing the clip release button to eject the partially full clip from the gun. So it looks like Activision watches your videos and takes notes

    This series is fun to watch, because Jonathon clearly (and states as such multiple times) that he games too, so even while examining a game's gun he'll appreciate the developer's side of things.
    Plus - and this is slightly mean of me - I greatly enjoy whenever Jonathon just looks pained by what he sees.

      I think it's meant to be a throwback to what they did with the XM8 in BO2. That gun was adopted by the US military in that timeline and saw a bunch of modifications too, while it was shelved in reality just like the G11.

They really butchered the deliver on this one in my opinion, but the shape of the wire stock, the straight magazine, and the charging handle's positioning are identical to the MPL.

    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), 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!*

    The EM-2 in the game inexplicably has both a knuckle-bow trigger guard _and_ a conventional trigger guard. The main reason to use a knuckle-bow trigger guard is that you can more easily use it while wearing gloves compared to a conventional trigger guard, so it's kind of pointless here.

BUT despite working with it for countless hours training, he found that no regular human hand could reliably flick off the safety rapidly on the draw. It's just not a combat weapon.

    You can see the grip/body of the gun at 9:40 was very heavily based on the stock of the AWP. The trigger guard and mag release are virtually identical. The magwell was shortened to allow an SMG mag to fit inside, but the finger cutouts that allow easier removal of the AWP mag remain, which have no business being there with the long SMG mag. And the final parts that give it away are the long finger groove at the front and the identical way the front end of the stock ends, with the top corners slightly more rounded than the bottom corners.
