Battlefield 1 - The RSC SMG Optical/Factory (2021)

An SMG that excels in a 1-on-1 fight, but starts struggling as soon as more enemies join the fray. Or you miss your shots. In a shocking twist, I think I may actually prefer the optical variant to the factory. The sights bounce, but the low rate of fire doesn't make it nearly as distracting as on other weapons.
It's not the Chauchat, but it's a French weapon that has 'Chauchat' in its name. Happy Bastille Day!

Am i the only one who is able to snipe down some enemies with this gun? This is one of the most underrated gun in BF1

[@afkek]

I love using this gun in game, it’s so satisfying. And that gameplay is even more satisfying and pleasant at sight, nice play man

[@luissantiago5163]

This gun. Didn't use it much but it was a fun little nightmare

[@Wakawakawaka281]

I got my first service star for the factory last night. Love using it to n close quarters tdm maps

[@Auggg11]

This is such a well made video. Shame it’s got no more views

[@Foddeur]

If you and others enjoyed it, then I feel that's the important bit! Also the irony here that I wouldn't consider this to be a video I put that much effort into, just some basic edits and a voiceover - not the most involved video I've made!

chauchat with extra steps

[@Foddeur]

This gun might've been better if it had the full 20-round Chauchat magazine slapped on it!

[@MyPS4IsOnFirePleaseHelp]

@@Foddeur Pretty sure one of the prototypes actually DID use Chauchat mags.

[@jurajokasa834]

@@MyPS4IsOnFirePleaseHelp it surely did when berthier (wich sadly isnt in game) used chauchat mags as bolt action rifle

When I use this gun I can do one or two kills in every the game 😂

Bruh that dynamite streak

[@MyPS4IsOnFirePleaseHelp]

I was about to say I'm sorry for possibly making you use the Optical variant for this gun, until you said that you possibly like it more than the Factory. *JOIN ME BROTHER, WE WILL SHRED WITH STYLE.*
Wait, I'm on PS4...

[@Foddeur]

Ho ho, appreciate the invite but after grabbing the footage for this video I had to detox with the Ribeyrolles Factory and MP 18 Trench!

[@TheBattlefieldHistorianTwitch]

This one in game is a Hard-hitter when using both Variants.

[@chongdeoku]

Beautiful play~

[@athlon64x29]

For small game modes I guess it's decent. Nice job taking down those planes!

[@Foddeur]

Yeah, more compact maps with fewer players seems to be this weapon's ideal situation. And thanks! Someone's got to do it, and the AA rocket gun really is a great tool for the job.

[@aleman58812]

Very difficult for me to use this weapon.

[@Foddeur]

Same. Kicking all over the place, unreliable hipfire, and a middling magazine. So many times I'm caught with my pants down reloading because some guy I didn't see just... turned up!

[@mixfunfunnyvideos7502]

good job i like this

[@Journey_to_who_knows]

nothing about this makes sense, it was supposed to be a firing port weapon then why does it only have 9 bullets, and it's a rifle why is the damage drop-off so pathetic, they should have made it closer to a medic rifle with high damage and range but bad recoil because it's niche of a close range destroyer is filled by the automatico. I'm guessing it's to stop people switching to semi auto and sniping with it.

[@matthewdavis2268]

Might as well put P08 in the title too

[@PBI45]

Please do a Bodeo 1889 video

[@Foddeur]

I'll give it a whirl once the weather cools down a bit!

[@N0S0R0G312]

Good video, bad gun.

[@Foddeur]

Thanks! I don't think it's necessarily a bad weapon, just one that really only excels in select situations. But then, an overspecialised weapon could be construed as a bad one!

[@N0S0R0G312]

@@Foddeur Dude, literally half of your video is reload animation or pistol using.

[@MyPS4IsOnFirePleaseHelp]

@@N0S0R0G312 That doesn't mean that it's a bad gun, what do you think it's called a "skill cannon" for? If some like it then let them like it.

[@N0S0R0G312]

@@MyPS4IsOnFirePleaseHelp
It's not the skillcannon, it's tryhard gun.
In my 300+ hours I met only 1 player who killed me with this weapon (3 times in a match), and I always saw him in killcam getting killed while he's reloading.

[@MyPS4IsOnFirePleaseHelp]

@@N0S0R0G312 People can have opinions bro, depending on how skilled the player is, they can do good with it, I got like 30 something or 40 something kills with it in one match with the Optical variant. If you think it's bad that's fine, but don't be hating on other people for liking it, got a problem with it? Deal with it man, it's not that hard.
