You do have to give the game credit with the Aperature sights. They look authentic and look like the could have been made during WW2 as they are simply pieces of glass with reticles painted on.
The 1919A4 does have a correct partial reload animation in singleplayer that pulls the current belt out. I guess they removed it from mp for balance reasons or something since it makes the partial reload longer which is usually slower in cod games
Fun fact: Brass shells used during WW2 were a slightly different length than the plastic ones we use now, enough of a difference that you could fit 6 of them into the magazine tube of a trench gun as opposed to 5 with the plastic ones.
If I’m remembering right, the sight picture for long range optics all being the same was either a bug or oversight. In the game files, there are proper sight pictures for each rifle.
The guns use there own unique reticles in single player and zombies but the sniper files in MP are all dupes of each other so while they changed the animations and sound they left them all with the same reticle
It just came into my mind that in GFL, Mica refused to put in weapons made by Imperial Japan (Nambu, Arisaka, Type 99,...) due to obvious historical reasons between Japan and China, but they at least made Type 100 a T-Doll for JP server exclusive which later added globally.

Considering this came out in 2008 I think despite how inaccurate this game is by today’s standards. Got as close as it got compared to its processors.

Extra sin for the thompson: you don't load drum mags from the bottom, you load them by pushing them to the side, otherwise the weight will just pull the mag out of the Thompson.
I feel like a lot of the anachronistic, or minor details are either limitations of the engine, or to enhance gameplay, such as the M1 having a bigger rear aperture to help players line up shots,
It’s animation may be stupid but at least they tried harder then the newer ww2. Plus it’s also pretty old of game people can get away with a lot more during that time
@@klutzspecter3470 Not exactly. Hardware limitations heavily influence what we see on screen. We also have the benefit of easier access to information on older firearms than we did in 2007/08. There's also issues of time crunch and weapon balance. And considering World At War remains more historically accurate than Vanguard - a game made 10 years later - really says something.
Another thing with the Mosin. The empty stripper clip is ejected when the bolt moves forward, unless the m38 carbine variant added this feature, the mosins lack it. The stripper has to be removed by hand. Not to mention the strippers used are the same used by rimless cartridges. the stripper clips for .303 and 7.62 x 54r were much deeper due to that.
13:45 The 1919A4 doesn't have a "safety notch" to lock the charging handle into. And I don't think they put the aperture in the rear sight ladder. They really butchered that gun
The amount of times the ammo count was correct in multi but higher in campaign makes me think the devs were aware of the correct ammo count (except the Winchester), but decided to up it in campaign to increase the fun factor.
I... Fucking hate... How they use the teacup grip on the handguns. It's like one of the Ten Commandments of firearms. "Thou shalt not use teacup grip on handguns" For context, this grip is infamous for having terrible control over the recoil; and it can bruise your hands when it slams it back down into your palm. Plus on some models, the magazine release is on the bottom of the pistol grip; so you can easily discharge the gun while holding it.
the m38 mosin nagant also incorrectly uses a downwards bent facing bolt handle instead of the standard straight bolt handle. the bent charging handles were intended to facilitate the use of the PU scopes on m91/30 (the long not carbine-length model) sniping variants of the rifle.
I remember getting reply from Frot a.k.a Frost. He said to push MG42 box thingy and refill ammo is possible but the amount is extremely low. Since there must be a bullet to link with the belt. Despite the in game model there's no ammo left in dry reload.
Yep that is true when playing at veteran difficulty because if we do playing at veteran there will be grenade spam a few hits and checkpoint restarting
Come to think if it, the M1903A1 Springfield somehow mutates into a M1903A4 when you scope it. The A4’s parent model, the A3, moved the rear sight to the back of the gun. The top handgaurd was lengthened to accommodate this change
Just realized the 1911 also engages its safety on empty reloads. Moreso than usual, even: It duplicates and slips up, clipping into the slide. Little animation error there
On stripper clip though, this is one of the few game that you partially reload rifle with a clip (but with graphic limitation so they show you shoving down the whole clip), which is what you actually can do with real thing and it's a lot faster than reloading round by round. COD Vanguard did it right and actually show numbers of ammo inserted, seems to be the only thing the game did right.
One thing I've never seen done right is the long scope on the 1903A1 sniper, the scope tube actually freely slides back and forth on the rings with slight resistance. It's made that way because the recoil would damage the internal parts of the scope so allowing the rifle to recoil separately from it was the best solution they had, the downside being you would have to slide your scope back into position between shots and the scopes were not particularly sturdy. The lack of iron sights is correct on many 1903 sniper models though.
2:32 that’s not entirely true, if it was it would have been in doctrine, the M7 was designed for way higher pressures than an M2 ball Edit: 7:22, some PTRS rifles were given PEM scopes(what the mosin used until the PU scope was ripped from the SVT and what is currently on said rifle albeit with an incorrect reticle), this was done primarily for support for DSHK teams, said PTRS rifles were also issued with exploding ammo to mark targets
Its not far fetched. I think they did something similar with the "AK-47" in the first Black Ops, which resulted in quite a strange looking AK for one that's supposed to be a Soviet model.
Tbh that didn't matter that much back then... Bear in mind that the resolution on console was relatively low and thus little details like these were very difficult to spot...
Another issue with the Arisaka is the lack of its dust cover. It's sort of an understandable mistake; due to GI bring-backs having mismatched parts most examples here in the US lack their dust covers due to them not fitting quite right and causing issues with operation, but a properly matched rifle, bolt, and dustcover operates just as easy as a rifle without the cover. Of course, Japanese soldiers issued their rifles would have all matching parts, and as your gear was technically the Emperor's property basically being leant to you, no Japanese infantryman in his right mind would even LOSE his dust cover, let alone intentionally discard it. Plus, they work really well at keeping debris out of the gun.
The Winchester 1897 trenchgun can hold 6 shells if you put an extra one in the chamber and it was common practice for soldiers to do that back then too.
I'm just happy that they got most of the guns somewhat correct Vanguard putting red dots on everything when the sights back then were mainly used by AA guns, planes and gunner sights in tanks you need to have a power source. Also they gave them a Vampyr sight which was a monstrosity though the science behind it makes sense.
The double barrel ejecting spent shells as if it isn’t a double barrel at all lol gee wiz that would genuinely piss me off for no reason when I was 11 playing this
There is no bolt catch on the M1919. It is a closed bolt system that doesn't lock open upon finishing its ammo. And even if it did, when you lift open the top cover in the game the bolt is show as forward. To reload it, you need to open it, put ammo on the feed tray and either close it and charge the bolt twice, or lift the feed pawl and put ammo under it, close it and then charge it once.
From what I recall the Germans didn't have issues with metal and bullets, but had issues with fuel and special materials needed for aircraft production, and a critical lack of manpower.
also, on the springfield and kar98k the entire rear assembly rotates when lifting the bolt handle, when only the bolt handle movement should be noticable on the rear end of the bolt (you didn't notice, but your brain DID)
1:07 - The Model 27 may not have been officially issued to U.S. Marines or U.S. Army soldiers during the Second World War, but surely a family member back home could have mailed one for their G.I. to use. I've heard and read stories of veterans whose families sent them guns from home to use in the field. Also, the Model 27 never appears in the campaign; it appears only in the multiplayer mode (it was included in multiplayer in order to diversify the pistols players can use). Its appearance in the game can't be said to be historically inaccurate since it doesn't appear in the campaign. 11:59 - Wow, that's a pretty egregious mistake. I wonder how the developers, modelers, and play-testers all missed that. I'm thinking they copied over a template (for lack of better word) without modifying the casing-eject variable (again, for lack of better word). 13:21 - In the case of the MP-40 dual magazine system - as well as many other attachments, like the aperture sights - it only appears in the multiplayer mode. The developers needed to have a variety of attachments to spice the gunplay and combat up, so they went with fictional but plausible modifications. Since these things don't appear in the campaign, the campaign can still be said to be decently historically accurate insofar as guns are concerned. 15:02 - This was a quality-of-life choice on the part of the developers, I'm sure. What fun would it be to play an action game in which the flamethrower, which is an iconic weapon, has only ten seconds worth of fuel? That'd be lame! The cool-down timer was the best way of balancing it out.
Mosin rifles cannot eject stripper clip unlike Mauser rifles. (At least the 1891/30 variant) You have to remove it yourself before you can work the bolt. This bothers me the most when I was playing this game.
The Mosin should only have a curved bolt handle with the sniper scope equipped. A non PU Mosin’s bolt handle sticks out from the gun at a 90 degree angle. PU sniper mosins curved the handle down so it could clear the scope when firing. Even when the bolt handle is properly curved, it’s too short. I’m also not sure the in game Mosin is based on the m38. It’s hard to tell from the footage but it looks too long for an M38. I remember them looking longer like a 91/30, when I saw them on the ground while playing the game. But I could be wrong on this one.
you should do a video on day of defeat. the game day of infamy is the spiritual successor of day of defeat, and the DOA menu screen art is a reference to the DOD:Source menu screen.
I give this game a pass on a lot of inaccuracies because not only was it a stellar game, but a lot of it can be attributed to the time the game was made.
Anyone know why the PPSH with the drum mag reloads faster and scoped bolt actions reload slower in the campaign, whereas in multiplayer it's the complete opposite?
m1a1 thompsons were also made with those weird muzzle brake thingies from older thompson models such as the m1921's and 28's? or is that also a mistake
Dude, you should really try and do the guns of Enlisted. There’s a lot in there and I’m sure it will be a lot of fun for you to do. The guns seem to be good and it seems like they do their homework when it comes to the history.
It's called girls frontline It's a gacha game where it's like an X com You are a commander of the t dolls ( tactical dolls they aren't human and they serve and protect )

Tbh that didn't matter that much back then... Bear in mind that the resolution on console was relatively low and thus little details like these were very difficult to spot...
@@onyx9943 Buddy, the Xbox 360 and PS3 were HD consoles. You could see those details...
@@onyx9943 720p was hd back then. its only the people that went looking for the details that noticed them
Another issue with the Arisaka is the lack of its dust cover. It's sort of an understandable mistake; due to GI bring-backs having mismatched parts most examples here in the US lack their dust covers due to them not fitting quite right and causing issues with operation, but a properly matched rifle, bolt, and dustcover operates just as easy as a rifle without the cover. Of course, Japanese soldiers issued their rifles would have all matching parts, and as your gear was technically the Emperor's property basically being leant to you, no Japanese infantryman in his right mind would even LOSE his dust cover, let alone intentionally discard it. Plus, they work really well at keeping debris out of the gun.

The iron sights on the Springfield rifle are misaligned.
The Winchester 1897 trenchgun can hold 6 shells if you put an extra one in the chamber and it was common practice for soldiers to do that back then too.
1. The game lacks the +1 in the chamber system.
2. The 6 round version came post war
Resnov's Mosin in "Vendetta" had a different (and I assume accurate) reticle than the rest, and even the Mosin scope in multiplayer.
I'm just happy that they got most of the guns somewhat correct Vanguard putting red dots on everything when the sights back then were mainly used by AA guns, planes and gunner sights in tanks you need to have a power source. Also they gave them a Vampyr sight which was a monstrosity though the science behind it makes sense.
The double barrel ejecting spent shells as if it isn’t a double barrel at all lol gee wiz that would genuinely piss me off for no reason when I was 11 playing this
There is no bolt catch on the M1919. It is a closed bolt system that doesn't lock open upon finishing its ammo. And even if it did, when you lift open the top cover in the game the bolt is show as forward. To reload it, you need to open it, put ammo on the feed tray and either close it and charge the bolt twice, or lift the feed pawl and put ammo under it, close it and then charge it once.
for some of the sins they are the result of engine limitations as world at war was released on ps3, xbox 360 and pc
From what I recall the Germans didn't have issues with metal and bullets, but had issues with fuel and special materials needed for aircraft production, and a critical lack of manpower.
To see this game still have modeling by great people , it show how much great it is!
Wow I didn’t even realize how bad the weapons were 😂
also, on the springfield and kar98k the entire rear assembly rotates when lifting the bolt handle, when only the bolt handle movement should be noticable on the rear end of the bolt (you didn't notice, but your brain DID)
Grenade spam brought back bad memories
not only is the PTRS too cumbersome, it's an anti material rifle
1:07 - The Model 27 may not have been officially issued to U.S. Marines or U.S. Army soldiers during the Second World War, but surely a family member back home could have mailed one for their G.I. to use. I've heard and read stories of veterans whose families sent them guns from home to use in the field. Also, the Model 27 never appears in the campaign; it appears only in the multiplayer mode (it was included in multiplayer in order to diversify the pistols players can use). Its appearance in the game can't be said to be historically inaccurate since it doesn't appear in the campaign.
11:59 - Wow, that's a pretty egregious mistake. I wonder how the developers, modelers, and play-testers all missed that. I'm thinking they copied over a template (for lack of better word) without modifying the casing-eject variable (again, for lack of better word).
13:21 - In the case of the MP-40 dual magazine system - as well as many other attachments, like the aperture sights - it only appears in the multiplayer mode. The developers needed to have a variety of attachments to spice the gunplay and combat up, so they went with fictional but plausible modifications. Since these things don't appear in the campaign, the campaign can still be said to be decently historically accurate insofar as guns are concerned.
15:02 - This was a quality-of-life choice on the part of the developers, I'm sure. What fun would it be to play an action game in which the flamethrower, which is an iconic weapon, has only ten seconds worth of fuel? That'd be lame! The cool-down timer was the best way of balancing it out.
dude do you remember first COD's scoped mosin nagant just shoving entire clip at an angle through the scope?
that was some soviet engineering
Mosin rifles cannot eject stripper clip unlike Mauser rifles. (At least the 1891/30 variant) You have to remove it yourself before you can work the bolt. This bothers me the most when I was playing this game.
i remember using the m1grand scoped and it kicked ass. it got some sort of damage boost.
I was wondering who the heck were the waifus in the corner were until I saw Springfield lol
The Mosin should only have a curved bolt handle with the sniper scope equipped. A non PU Mosin’s bolt handle sticks out from the gun at a 90 degree angle. PU sniper mosins curved the handle down so it could clear the scope when firing. Even when the bolt handle is properly curved, it’s too short.
I’m also not sure the in game Mosin is based on the m38. It’s hard to tell from the footage but it looks too long for an M38. I remember them looking longer like a 91/30, when I saw them on the ground while playing the game. But I could be wrong on this one.
Wow even cod waw didn’t have a fucking RED DOT SIGHT.
I'm unsure what they were smoking,
but I'm certain that everyone knows that DB shotguns doesn't eject the shell after firing.
Wait till you see vanguard guns
I'd say a lot of these don't count because they are multiplayer only, but I'm not sure how that would work
Wait how do we have gfl characters on the video and on the thumbnail?
Why not
I would like to see a video where you tally up the weapons sins of brothers in arms hell's highway.
"prototye" yeah i get you buddy, typos
Sadly we still yet don't have characters for Imperial Japanese weapons
?
U mean GFL ?
@@worm4475 Yeah pal
COD WW2 and Vanguard aren’t the only 2 that has incorrect attachments for Multiplayer
1:52 It should mean that it's a german captured model, rechambered for 9mm.
I've never heard of a tokarev rechambered in 9mm during WW2... Decades later, Zastava and NorInCo would produce 9x19mm models...
@@onyx9943 They're Soviet allies, post-war tho. Doesen't make sense for them to just use the same caliber as the soviets.
@@frank5598 Yugoslavia was actually in close ties with the US, which distanced them from the USSR...
@@onyx9943 No?
Lmao, the Girls Frontline models, nice
I play so much call of duty waw I didn’t know that for the m1919a4.
you should do a video on day of defeat. the game day of infamy is the spiritual successor of day of defeat, and the DOA menu screen art is a reference to the DOD:Source menu screen.
You should do this with Red Orchestra 2, I always thought RO2 as a upgraded version of WaW.
I give this game a pass on a lot of inaccuracies because not only was it a stellar game, but a lot of it can be attributed to the time the game was made.
Took me too long to see the gfl sprites
>Using Plutonium client
eyyy based
Anyone know why the PPSH with the drum mag reloads faster and scoped bolt actions reload slower in the campaign, whereas in multiplayer it's the complete opposite?
Again, I'd take this over Vanguard animations lol
Still better than Vanguard. That's for sure
m1a1 thompsons were also made with those weird muzzle brake thingies from older thompson models such as the m1921's and 28's? or is that also a mistake
Dude, you should really try and do the guns of Enlisted. There’s a lot in there and I’m sure it will be a lot of fun for you to do. The guns seem to be good and it seems like they do their homework when it comes to the history.
i always wonder ,where you get those anime picture(upper right of the screen)
It's called girls frontline
It's a gacha game where it's like an X com
