No the review itself is great. Would like to know how you are measuring distance, and how you are judging the drop off. Other then that its great.........just boring as fuck. A wise crack once in a while would do wonders IMO. But that's just my personality. I like funny and informative. You got the latter.
Its much better then most reviews. I just like some lulz tossed in. Maybe stab Ugfy or something with a nice teabag........that always makes me feel better.
Distance, since I mostly use Red Dot is just off memory. Like that 1st guy in the clip behind the cement bricks on Noshar, is about 15m out. At the ranges I usually shoot, not too much drop, leading though I usually find once I pick up the weapon. Since every damn weapon has different bullet speeds, it's just something I figure out each time I use a new one. And yeah, I knew it would be dry going in, but we'll see if it gets a bit better. I'm trying to find a good way of commentating. Right now I cut the clips, write the script, record the script, add it in, then finalize clips to fit audio. Would be nice to commentate a bit on things actually happening in game now and then, but hard to line up the audio doing that.
Take media training, does some wonders. Just don't end up like that that guy that does video hardware reviews...uh...whatever his name is...
I stil lthink the G3A3 is a slow-loader, BTW. I do have 22+ hours of using itNever tried leaving bullets in though, since when it matters, is usually when I empty a full clip at two or three from close range...then it feels like the PKP almost. Nor really, but it seem liek an eternity comapred to say, the M416.
Honestly, I just pick a gun and use it until I top 1000 kills with it. Lately I have been using the assignment weapons, working through the assignments slowly...
but you know, it's like the assignment that needs claymores...man, I never remember to put out the claymores.
The last four rounds I have played, I ahve been #1 for score in three, and second on one. I could probably do a lot better if I udnerstood exactly how the weapons worked, which were most optimal for what situation, but that's going far to technical for me to enjoy playing the game. I'm not competitively focused in any way.
If the channel really takes off, I might have to really consider it. We'll see where it all goes though, for now this is just for shits and giggles.
And yeah, with an empty clip, the G3 is slow as a snail, it's the exact same as the L86, if they both have an empty clip, so you were dead on there. I just reload constantly after I kill people, habit, and with the G3 I rarely end up emptying clips to kill people, so the reload for me is usually very short.
And trust me, I know about Assignment pain. I just got Only for the Dedicated, had to do all that crap, 25 Vehicle C4's was a pain for me, and the Recon kills. I kinda wish I hadn't do the Recon and a few others, I've seen people looking for video guides to them, so I might go back and do those anyways.
Also one thing that makes weapon research easy, is Better Battlelog. It's how I started noticing statistics, now that I'm doing reviews I'm going to symthic and looking up a lot more info beyond that even. But bblog shows all the recoil characteristics and everything right on each weapons page in Battleog, so you never have to go anywhere else. It helped me decide to use the M416 before the patch rather than the A3, simply because I was sitting looking at them and thinking, why is the 416 slow rof, more vertical recoil, but otherwise no different, worse gun in all aspects. Then I seen it's much lower 1st shot recoil, realized it would be much better at range, I used it and loved it.
