Ever since Stargate I've loved this SMG
[QUOTE=Tuskin;52132090]Ever since Stargate I've loved this SMG[/QUOTE] Nothing better to shoot Jaffa and Replicators with than the P90.
Fantastic as always. I like how, since the P90 hasn't been featured in that many movies, he had plenty of time to talk about the history of it's development. What a remarkable weapon. [QUOTE]Next up: POLYBIUS.[/QUOTE] :mystery:
Ha he included the CSGO connotations. He didn't say pro 90 but I like that he explained that.
[QUOTE=Tuskin;52132090]Ever since Stargate I've loved this [B]SMG[/B][/QUOTE] PDW (Personal Defence Weapon). AFAIK SMGs fire pistol-caliber cartridges while PDWs will use something more akin to a intermediate rifle cartridge. Basically, they need to be able to defeat body armor while staying compact and accurate. PDWs are the mid-point between SMGs and carbines. [editline]20th April 2017[/editline] Right, the video already explains all that.

[QUOTE=Damjen;52132141]Never forget the classic P90 moment[/QUOTE] SG-1 made good use out of it.
[QUOTE=StrawberryClock;52132142]SG-1 made good use out of it.[/QUOTE] They had to cut back use in later seasons because the military needed the ammo according to one of the DVD Commentaries.
Ah yes. Perhaps my favorite firearm. Mainly due to how i even found it. Back when you have Windows Media Player having a browser feature, i must had been around 11 or 12 at the time. Just clicking on videos to watch. Somehow bumped into a Japanese Cartoon trailer and watched that. It started off innocent enough until dumbcunt Megee starts talking shit to the big brother and then...

That still image of Daniel Jackson spraying the P90 has been my Steam avatar for a few years now.

[QUOTE=kiloy;52132381]But doesn't it use the same round as the five-seven pistol? :mystery:[/QUOTE] the five-seven was made after as a complimentary pistol, as the video states
so SMGs are between rifles and machineguns and PDWs are between rifles and SMGs how much more specialized can we get [sp]p90 noob l2p cyka blyat[/sp]
[QUOTE=StrawberryClock;52132435]the five-seven was made after as a complimentary pistol, as the video states[/QUOTE] Yeah but "A SMG uses pistol rounds" followed by 'the P90 uses the same ammo as this pistol' can seem pretty odd when trying to explain why the P90 isn't a SMG.
Grab the popcorn:dance:
[QUOTE=comet1337;52132444]so SMGs are between rifles and machineguns and PDWs are between rifles and SMGs how much more specialized can we get [sp]p90 noob l2p cyka blyat[/sp][/QUOTE] Nah man, it's a scale. Semi-auto pistols -> Machine Pistols -> Submachine Guns -> Personal Defence Weapons -> Carbines -> Assault Rifles Then from Assault Rifles you specialise into either Machine Guns or Sniper Rifles. Don't consider other weapons, they break the scale.
[QUOTE=The_J_Hat;52132423]The military needed blanks?[/QUOTE] What, you think they train all the time with live ammo?
[QUOTE=Janus Vesta;52132445]Yeah but "A SMG uses pistol rounds" followed by 'the P90 uses the same ammo as this pistol' can seem pretty odd when trying to explain why the P90 isn't a SMG.[/QUOTE] It's the other way around, though. It's 'A PDW uses a type of intermediate caliber rounds' and 'the Five-seveN uses the same ammo as this PDW'. It's easier to say that the Five-seveN uses rifle ammo even though it's not strictly correct because the FN 5.7×28mm was made specifically with the P90 in mind. There isn't really an analogue for it.
i really want him to do a video on Deus Ex. ahoy is the best youtuber around. hes extremely humble and does this just for fun and he does so much research into any topic he speaks about.
The P90 will forever be my favorite weapon.
[QUOTE=LeonS;52132671]i really want him to do a video on Deus Ex. ahoy is the best youtuber around. hes extremely humble and does this just for fun and he does so much research into any topic he speaks about.[/QUOTE] Entire analyses on video games and their arsenals would be really cool.
[QUOTE=The_J_Hat;52132423]The military needed blanks?[/QUOTE] I'm assuming they were making less blanks, or needed more blanks for training.
[QUOTE=Keychain;52132784]Entire video game analyses on video games and their arsenals would be really cool.[/QUOTE] [del]This format based on single weapons is fine. Good luck finding well researched loadouts worth exploring that aren't historic or milsim games. Because all you'd find is that everything that made it into a game was some dev's preference or availability for asset reference.[/del] EDIT: Well I'll be
[QUOTE=Keychain;52132784]Entire video game analyses on video games and their arsenals would be really cool.[/QUOTE] [URL="https://www.youtube.com/user/XboxAhoy/playlists"]He's done a bunch of those, actually![/URL] Some of them feature real guns, some of them not so much.
is there a source on that background droning he uses in his videos
I think he does it himself. He's mentioned in his second channel he has a synthesizer he likes to play around with
[QUOTE=Nautsabes;52133332]is there a source on that background droning he uses in his videos[/QUOTE] You can emulate that on literally almost any synthesizer.
[QUOTE=Janus Vesta;52132445]Yeah but "A SMG uses pistol rounds" followed by 'the P90 uses the same ammo as this pistol' can seem pretty odd when trying to explain why the P90 isn't a SMG.[/QUOTE] they use the same cartridge, the cartridge was designed for the P90 for higher penetrative capabilities than a pistol round. the fiveseven pistol was designed to use the same cartridge.
