I always have said this!!! As soon as we realized they were releasing DLC chronologically to events of the war I got so excited they were going to take us through DDAY and into Berlin. Would have been absolutely righteous.
@@CharlieBurns75yeah I always found that odd. It launched kind of buggy, but I always enjoyed it. Didnt realize why there was a lot of hate towards it. The hate towards 2042 I understand, however.
Its deceiving, it plays worse tho, I hoped into it few days ago on my 4080 super and it looks great yes, but once playing it can see why 2042 is definitely improved
That's the most fun way of using them in BF. I usually get a bipod if it doesn't have one and just rain bullets on ennemies 300 meters away. Yeah it shouldn't play like an AR. Although you should still be able to use the sights while standing on most LMGs, idk how it is on BFV, maybe it's just the MG42.
i wish we modified the weapon classes not just in bf but in all other games, ARs SMGs and LMGs are too similar, and sniper and shotgun have a lot of problems in how there designed.
At first, I thought "It's probably not as bad as this guy says it is" thinking it was around 8 to 900 RPM Then I look it up and oh boy it's 650 RPM default and up to 720 with perks, now I've seen it all
I hope they bring back lot of mechanics that were in this game to the next game. Fortifications was awesome. Gunplay was probably some of the best. Squad call ins was awesome. Controversial, but I loved the vehicle enter and exit animations, it made it more of a commitment when using vehicles, and can’t just bail instantly to cheat someone out of a kill they earned. The MOVEMENT, crouch sprinting, ledge grabs, 360 prone. They could bring the soldier customization too that would be cool so long as they keep it grounded and more militaristic and not goofy cosmetics like they started doing in 5. Also the attrition was kind of cool it made it a bit more hardcore, maybe not implemented the best way they coulda, at times it was just kinda annoying but they were on right track with it.
The vehicule animations are a controversial topic ? I find them great. It's more immersive and you don't have to guess where the guy teleported to when he gets out of his vehicule (and ultimately kills you because of it even though you were the one deserving the kill).
Fortifications were seriously so rewarding. I honestly thought the soldier and gun customization was the worst yet. Everything about them were just ugly and there was 0 variety. And the worst part, all of it was behind pay wall. I clocked so many hours on that game and got maybe a few basic gun camos and soldier outfits.
The MAG58 we designed in the 50’s 🇧🇪 is also based it. The pawl mechanism to load the rounds on the M60 and minimi’s (M249, M240) is the same as the MG42. It was a excellent and advanced design for sure.
I'm telling you, B5 is a fun game. I play 3/4, 1 and 5, mostly 1 and 5 now. 1 is a stone cold classic at this point, but 5 has a lot of fun stuff to offer.
One of the many reasons bf5 is still my favorite 🤩 2:00 - 2:42 ish and many more reason like laying on your back / shooting while crawling backwards… rolling from a high fall and so on .. LEANING
Fun fact: what it was first introduced, the MG42 had an issue where because it fired so fast, it would actually fire out of battery, so to fix this, the desires of the weapon lowered the cyclic rate.
My grandpa was a Canadian paratrooper in WW2, left Canada at 16 to drop into Europe and help the allies. He said getting shot at by the “buzz saw” was a nearly existential experience. That man had some insane stories, war definitely did a number on him though.
If you think that's a fast rate of fire, the MG45 was meant to be its direct replacement and reached up to 1,800 rounds per minute. Fortunately for the Allies, it never left prototyping and only ten were ever built.
Since launch my hot take has been BfV is the best battlefield game of the series. Many wont agree but overall it's always been the best experience imo. (Not counting the nostalgia feeling of older games just pure feeling and gameplay.)
Great gun but had a huge caveat after 150 rounds of constant fire the barrel would over heat and had to be change this rendered the gun in operable for an amount of time the barrel changer also wore protective asbestos gloves which were cumbersome and made the changing of the barrel even harder, its other caveat was you needed a lot of ammo as it would just rip through ammo like there was no end to it. The German military were disappointed and were advised against sustained rates of fire and ordered to use it in only 3 to 7 round bursts so whilst the reported rate of fire was 1220 rounds per minute its actual rate of fire was 154 rounds per minute due to barrel overheating issues and shortage of ammo.
BF5 was insanely underrated! If they would have just ported modern weapons, equipment, and vehicles into the into the BF5 engine to make a new game, it would have been INCREDIBLE.
I genuinely miss BFV's destruction, movement and gun play. Might be an unpopular opinion, but it all just felt fluid and right. Take that into the next BF game. omg, id be thrilled. (With tweaks where tweaks are needed ofc)
Man... the shorter video (I feel like they're getting too long sometime, but I get it too) with the brief little history lesson on the weapon? Perfection. Great video composition with great gameplay, more of these please!
The thriller music at the end was hilariously cinematic. It felt like the game planned that exact sequence of events to happen. I was as confused as you lol
I know you don't do many but would love to see a Hell Let Loose video, I've not played for a while myself but always enjoyed watching especially when you play with someone else
Been playing this alot recently. Just went back to BF4 for fun, and it hit me (with headphones) how much better explosion sounds are in BF4. When you throw a grenade indoors, you can definately hear it "yeah, that went off".
Hi Jack, it would be cool to see your gameplay in BF 4 with a MTAR type gun, that would be cool! Oh yeah, they removed all the DLC and player progress!
Not related to anything in the video but frontlines was a HIGHLY underrated mode. It was my favorite mode in the series. The push and pull that could happen in it, it felt like a true war.
In battlefield I agree with the title somewhat because in hell let loose there's nothing more frightening then a mg42 laid down mowing down your entire squad in 3 seconds
I know this is kind of off topic but have you watched any of the new Indiana Jones and the Great Circle gameplay? And do you plan on playing it? Id love to hear your thoughts about it. Also, Great video as usual lol
I love this behemoth in Pavlov VR! And the manual reloading, if you can pull it off fast enough.. they had to nerf it with just 50 rounds drum mags, but still a beast!
They have the mechanics nailed so well. The rigging is done splendidly. They keep those files and only if they develop them further and we will have a mind-blowing new Battlefield 2025-26?
This is my go-to BF game. Currently challenging myself to get the gold plated skin for my favorite weapons. It took me about 6 months on and off to gold plate the Boys AT Rifle, now I’m working on the MG42. Still got a long way to go
Hey Jack, overheat the MG-42 Doesn't have *as* long of cooling animation due to the Devs taking advantage of a real feature of the weapon. Barrel swapping. Looks dope, and you can keep the fire up.
On snow maps I would dawn a winter camo and roll in the snow for extra camouflage w/ the MG42 same thing with all the other maps that’s what I loved about BFV you actually utilize the uniform camos or get dirty for extra coverage

Abandoning BFV was a huge mistake. Imagine the Eastern Front and fighting in Stalingrad or Berlin with these graphics, physics and sound.
The game got so much hate. They thought they had to abandon it.
it was all community’s fault never gave the devs a chance and they had to abandon it

Can't believe how much better this game looks than 2042 lmao
Was going to say the same haha
Was thinking the same. 2042 looks like a mobile game compared to this
Its deceiving, it plays worse tho, I hoped into it few days ago on my 4080 super and it looks great yes, but once playing it can see why 2042 is definitely improved
its the lighting
2042 used wrong color scheme.
A man true to his word…he made an MG-42 BFV video as he said he would
Yea without 1200 rpm. That's like making a video about the an 94 in full auto. Pointless
Too bad about that ugly ass muzzle they fabricated. So many weapons had attachments added that were after war or experimental.
Bro fr I was so looking forward to this video when he said that. Hella happy when I saw the notification
he said he was gonna do it then he did it
fucking legend!
He has made the video already and later he said he'll make one.
Ive always argued that this is how all of the larger LMG's should be used, not running around as if its an AR
BFVs MMGs were one of the better innovations of V. It makes the LMG archetype an actual distinct class instead of just being big ARs
That's the most fun way of using them in BF. I usually get a bipod if it doesn't have one and just rain bullets on ennemies 300 meters away.

Im still traumatize about the rendition of the MG-42 in call of duty WW2 and how sacrilegeously slow the rate of fire is in that game 😅
The Stinger was even worse 🤢
IRL it has a fire rate of almost 1200rpm
In game it was 450rpm
At first, I thought "It's probably not as bad as this guy says it is" thinking it was around 8 to 900 RPM
Then I look it up and oh boy it's 650 RPM default and up to 720 with perks, now I've seen it all
I have ptsd from hell let loose when you hear the mg42 everybody hits the deck
Don’t get me started on the ppsh in that game aswell
In COD:WAW we used to refer to the BAR as the “Barely Automatic Rifle” 😂
That house clearing at the beginning was so cinematic 👌
Felt good that did
@@jackfragsi dont doubt it
Jack opening this like the history channel documentaries we all watched as kids.
Pls do more. Love the BFV vids

Crouch sprinting, vaulting over walls, rolling on landing from high jumps, staged reloads so many thing missing from 2042.
You're helping keep this game alive for all of us . Good work Soldier
The reason why Jack is so good at this game is because the shots he shoots hit enemies
You might be on to something.
Nah. He just shoots randomly and they catch them because he's good.
the floor is made of floor
These shnozberrys taste like shnozberrys
🤯
Another fun fact about this gun, the MG3 is a modern version of the MG42. MG3 is still largely used, tells how good of a design it really is.
The MAG58 we designed in the 50’s 🇧🇪 is also based it. The pawl mechanism to load the rounds on the M60 and minimi’s (M249, M240) is the same as the MG42. It was a excellent and advanced design for sure.
Think the only main difference is a more variable fire rate and chambered in 7.62 NATO

It's fun but it lacks the immersion from BF1
@@beardedxdeath true, but gameplay in BF V is better. Sniping expercience in BF V is quite good, in BF 1 random bullet deviation is just annoying.
@@hipatrykk BFV was the start of the cod like movement i hated it and yes sniper was a highlight
Loved 5 but the absence of the eastern front still bothers me.
loved 3 and 4, never really enjoyed 1 nor 5, and I tried, I think I don't like most of the guns and the sights
That V1 explosion never gets old. So good.
Jack: "apart from a shotgun, I wouldn't wanna do that with any other weapon..."
Type 2A: "Am I a joke to you?"
The thype 2A is a coward's weapon
Damn Jack that initial building clear was beautiful
Thanks!
You really did go and play with the MG 42 right after the last video lol. Always good to see more BFV, it's such a fun game! :)
One of the many reasons bf5 is still my favorite 🤩 2:00 - 2:42 ish and many more reason like laying on your back / shooting while crawling backwards… rolling from a high fall and so on .. LEANING
That looked like an action scene in a movie
Good call out. Agreed!
Wish you could lean around corners in these scenarios, not like I still play the game, but I might return to it was so good
@@Bensparks12 you can lean near or far from corners / any cover or with no cover (you can still lean
Fun fact: what it was first introduced, the MG42 had an issue where because it fired so fast, it would actually fire out of battery, so to fix this, the desires of the weapon lowered the cyclic rate.
Been waiting for this video since the last one. It was worth the wait. Nice one Jack!
Every time I click on a jack battlefield video the intro is always so cinematic and just perfectly timed it’s nuts

Since launch my hot take has been BfV is the best battlefield game of the series. Many wont agree but overall it's always been the best experience imo. (Not counting the nostalgia feeling of older games just pure feeling and gameplay.)
battlefield 2 PC (2005) is the best one IMO
Love that subtle all ghillied up theme in the background as you work your way from building to building 😉
Finished that BF2042 video and this one comes up right after. Perfect.

BFV is truly a masterpiece. Every time you upload a video it makes me want to jump back on again.
Feels like coming home after a long time away when Jack posts a BF video. Good times!
A lot of memories using that gun as a medic in Bad Company 2
ive been waiting five years for another mmg sweatlord video. Bless you JackFrags!
Appreciate your history knowledge at the beginning, makes it more interesting 👌
MG-42 fired a 7.92 x 57 mm round, not a 10.92 x 57 mm. Fun to watch as always Jack!

This video makes me pumped for the next BF game. I couldn't get into BF5 for some reason.

Had a bit of deja vu there toward the end 😂
I downloaded bf4 on gamepass this weekend, game still holds solid all these years later, amazing game
I’ve played bf4, bf1, and BFV. I choose bf4 most of the time
this gun is the most recognized for its sound and looks. also the allies in WW2 were so terrified when they just heard the noise of this gun.
Just got my own copy last week for 3 bucks during holiday sale. definitely worth it!
I like the style of this video :)
This is my go-to BF game. Currently challenging myself to get the gold plated skin for my favorite weapons. It took me about 6 months on and off to gold plate the Boys AT Rifle, now I’m working on the MG42. Still got a long way to go
Hey Jack, overheat the MG-42
Doesn't have *as* long of cooling animation due to the Devs taking advantage of a real feature of the weapon. Barrel swapping. Looks dope, and you can keep the fire up.
The MG42 shreds, it's what I main in BFV when I play. It's also Goated in Hell Let Loose
The Outro is doing my head in, is that a crab rave/Battlefield remix?
The movement and player animations were perfect in BF5.
