Whoever was playing this HAD to have the game on the easiest setting. There’s no way the people in that truck at the beginning didn’t spot him running down that hill.
The way he was playing doesn’t fully show the goodness of the game as well. Playing patiently, taking them out from afar and without being noticed. Setting up elaborate traps and so forth. Ofc play how you want to, but I’m sure he would’ve enjoyed watching more strategic gameplay
I’m playing on authentic right now and it is a very different game even from hard. Overall he still would think it’s not realistic obviously but it would be much better if he watch it on authentic.
To answer the silencer question: 1) The first patent was 1906 by the son of the guy who invented the Maxim machine gun (If I remember correctly) 2) Both axis and allies used silencers in limited numbers. They were either a tube with a few funnels (actual funnels not any fancy baffles) inside (maybe just three) or a few rubber wipes. 3) The silencers were plagued by many issues: a) the rubber wipes lasted only a few shots and didn't perform well at all in cold temperatures, in particular on the Eastern Front. b) they were not very effective at actually silencing the shots, but made it still much harder to detect the position of the shooter. Still taking out a sentry or dog silently was impossible! c) they tended to overheat and have gasses being pressed back into the ejection port and irritate your eyes. d) any self-loading gun could become unreliable with a silencer mounted e) they didn't have bigger or heavier rounds for shooting subsonic, but used regular length barrels and regular ammunition, just with maybe 2/3rds of the powder charge removed! The results were obviously lackluster, both in external ballistics and terminal ballistics (massive bullet drop, little effect on impact) Due to all these factors, crossbows and rubber-powered devices were occasionally used by special operators (these weapons had a lethality on par with an FMJ 45 ACP and were silent enough to take out sentries). However, snipers and resistance fighters were often given those primitive silencers. Probably snipers using regular rounds (and bolt action rifles) had the most to win from using suppressors, but that's not how they were intended to be used...
@@user-yy7tw9hv9n not really. A medieval windlass crossbow has insane poundage, but the kinetic energy of the projectile is AFAIK no more than that of a powerful modern compound bow. It all depends on how much of the stored energy you can transfer into the projectile and how much of the energy the projectile can transfer into the target... It's a similar story with the giant musket balls compared to 5.56mm... (though 5.56 is not always better).
Autoloading firearms usually function better with suppressors, not worse. The extra back pressure usually assists the extraction/ejection and they tend increase the rate of fire on fully automatic weapons. Also, the common way that subsonic was achieved using standard loaded ammunition is through barrel porting. The Welrod, DeLisle, HDM, and M3 Grease gun suppressors are all good examples of this (the modern MP5sd also uses this technique). Once the barrel is ported it acts like having a short barrel and prevents the round from achieving super sonic velocity.
@@dark2023-1lovesoni My point was about the gun not being made for the attachment originally. You need to tune the gas pressure/recoil and in case of the barrel moving as well take the added mass into account. Some guns are really bad at performing both with and without that attachment.
The Welrod, was a silenced pistol used during WW2. It was meant to be used by undercover agents in Axis territory. The design of it very unusual and the barrel actually was made to look like a bicycle pump.
Yeah apparently "Welrod" the British Single Shot Suppressor Pistol was used by the SOE during WW2. There's also the M3 "Grease Gun" that were Equipped with Suppressor
The SpecOps guys were issued with with pistols like the Wellrod with integral suppressors that became less effective the more rounds were fired, but if the right subsonic ammo was used, on the 1st few shots people standing in the same vicinity, would only hear a slight pop if the weapon was fired close to them.
Yes they were used in WW2, but not a lot at all. And the OSS used very specific weapons like the welrod, other suppressed weapons were fielded in VERYYYYYY limited numbers and most were prototypes issued to them for testing. And that was usually in numbers less than 100.
The silencer was used in ww2 mostly by the OSS and some snipers were issued them for specific missions but most snipers didn't get them for standard combat missions
3:55 Yes. they did. Suppressed Stens, M3s, Welrods, De Lisle carbines, germans had suppressed EMPs and suppressor attachments for various guns like CZ-27 or Kar98k, soviets had suppressors for Mosins and Nagant revolvers.
Small problem here it's like the game is called Sniper Elite but it's a commando game, so for the sniping part Richard is totally relevant but in the end, it's all about infiltration (may it be loud or not hehe, up to you)
For Richard The first working mufflers were made and sold by Hiram Percy Maxim in 1902. In the USSR, the first silencer "BroMit" came into service with pre-sonic cartridges in 1941. In the game, the sniper uses a De Lisle carbine made UK with an integrated silencer. They were rare, but they were. Thanks for the fun video!
Why do they always pick the absolute worst gameplay for these experts to react to????? This guy’s running around in the game like he’s playing freakin Call of Duty!!!
They had sound supressors at the time of WW II. It was not common but they had. In fact the Royal Armorie Museum worked with Rebellion in making the guns and accessories in Sniper Elite 5.
As far as I am aware the Maxim Silencer was a pre WW1 patent and did exist. SOE and OSS did produce a number of suppressed weapons, suppressors. Sten, Grease Guns, a few others come to mind quickly. Welrod and Delisle carbines as well. Beyond that I don't think there was a lot of suppressor usage in general, even on the Axis side. I can only think of one Soviet suppressor and one Axis suppressor. This game and its customisation system has gone well and truly overboard and over the top. It's offering a lot of what I think we've only seen in more modern games, come out in the last twenty or thirty years. I know I've got a set up that's perhaps a bit too custom, too freeform. To unrealistic for this old grognard of the series. And this title hasn't given me a nice Smelly too.
He didn't notice it, but in the game there's actually a soundmask mechanic. Planes flying overhead and sabotaging engines and generators to make loud popping noises can be used to mask your shots so no one can tell what's really gunfire
i just want to point out that these clips where made on the cadet difficulty. on “authentic plus” (or at least the SE5 equivalent, i can only play SE4), there’s NO hud whatsoever and the enemies have a brain. you have to consider bullet drop, wind, and have to mark every target to know how much you have to recalibrate your scope to compensate for the distance. holding your breath only steadies your scope instead of giving you that slowing time down thing. every item only has one magnification because there was no fancy “moving lenses around and staying zero” thing. forget the minimap or the things above enemies heads when they get alerted.
@4:13 Also, before you engage in any type of climbing, especially in an urban (or just man-made in general) environment, you should always make sure that the obstacle you're planning to climb (and you're body) can support your weight (plus equipment), and ideally you'd have a backup plan. You don't know if or when any of those stones would just break, slip out, your hands might slip, the bridge might shake Obviously, when your life is on the line, you might take certain risks, but in those cases if they catch you, you're done anyway.
My grandfather was there in the war. And yes, he was a sniper. So from what he told me about it, I know this game isn't realistic. But what the hell, I don't play games for "realism." I just play them for fun. Reality is for people who can't handle PlayStation.😆
If I had a voice in the Ministry of Defense of my country (Chile) "Take it to the bank" that Richard would be sniper's instructor for the best of the best of my guys.
Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe there was a type of silencer in WW2 but it was very large and not practical at all and was still in the somewhat trial phase. I may be remembering wrong though.
You are wrong. Silencers were very effective in ww2 and functioned the same as they do now. Issue was gathering rubber for the wipes. They were used by special forces and local resistances.
there was actually a suppressed revolver as early as the 1890s. the nagant revolver could be suppressed, even if the device to do so wasn't called a 'suppressor' at the time
In this game, you always have to memorize the audible range of your firearms to allow for a stealthy gameplay, how it should be. Even as a civilian, the phrase "slow is smooth, smooth is fast" holds precedence in this game.
As far as I remember, the use of suppressors was minimal and only handed to elite special ops units. Fun fact, even the Germans designed and manufactured all of their MP-40s with a threaded barrel, for the same reason!
While silencers are cool looking but I doubt they popped up during WW2 and even if they did they probably weren't very effective the best anyone can do is try and suppress the muzzle flash but again highly unlikely during WW2
there actually were real good ones. the welrod and a certain carbine with integrated silencer on it on the british side. the russians made silencers for the nagant rifle that the germans copied. they were out there, just not in anyones hands.
Scilensers and suppressors were very much a thing back then. Especially favored by various spy and commando organizations, like the American OSS (which the protagonist in Sniper Elite belongs to). Suppressors date back to WW1, and was found to lower noise by up to 66% back then
11:00 no offense to anyone but of course it looks easy couse that person is playing at the easy difficulty At higher difficoultys when you shoot you also have to consider wind and gravity before taking the shot
They weren't playing on Authentic mode. that IS a challenge. No problem for you though. windage, ballistics etc. Hope you play it. PS: I stink at the game. 😁
The answer is YES there were but only for special units back in World War 2 And karl fairburne, which is the main character, is a special unit, and he knows what he's doing because he was a special trained unit or an Operative and worked for the SOE then recruited by the OSS you can look him up on the internet for context of him
The first silencer was patented in 1892. Though Maxim's silencer patented in 1909 was really the first commercial suppressor on the market. So yes, they were around. They were not common, however, in the forties and they definitely did not have the technology in them as we have currently with modern products. But, OSS did have and employ them. So, plausible but unlikely.
As for supressors you had some stuff that popped up during ww2. The welrod comes to mind. the tech was very primitive. instead of steel inside that we have now. they used rubber baffles to be shot through inside the supressor. the rubber baffles would seal the gasses after the bullet came out. its design made it so it had to be replaced after 10-15 shots before the wipes or baffles of rubber was non effective in sound supression
The mosin nagant and K98 had sound supressors aswell but they were not favoured by people since you have a subsonic bullet trying to make a hole in the rubber wipes before the other shots then go through again. it impacted accuracy alot on the first shot.
Really don't like this trend in newer Sniper Elite games, that you allways can have suppressors on everything. Makes stuff way to easy. But I like that SMGs seem to be actually deadly now. It was pretty annoying in the earlyer games, when you had to empty a full mag of .45 from your Thompson on a guy from like 2m distance for him to die
There are a select few weapons that have suppresses, the De Lisle bolt action rifle used by comandos and the British special forces in WW2. The Welrod pistol The Sten Mk2(s) HDM .22 pistol with a 7.75" integrated suppressor.
I've always questioned my self in this type of situations. Like if your behind the enemy lines and alone and on a secret mission that could change the tide of war. You are definitely an elite spec op. So you know what to do and what to carry with your self. And probably have the strength and the professionalism to carry this type of weapons and gadgets. So I don't really agree with him when he says it not realistic.
The OSS and SOE used suppressors but they were on Sten SMG's, M3 Grease Guns, Welrod and De Lisle weapons. You weren't running around with suppressed M1903 Springfield's or M1928A1 Thompsons.
They had suppressors they were not that good or common but they were around on both sides. Fun fact the first successful silencers was invented by the son of Hiram Maxim the inventor of the maxim gun (the first really successful machine gun) to save his fathers hearing when he test fired the guns but it was to late when he finished
During 40s there was a limited amount of suppressed weapons, typically only for special purposes. Most of them were used by british SAS who did sabotage missions in occupied france and norway. Welrod, Sten MK2 and De Lisle are most known examples. Germans generally didn't suppress their weapons since it is good if your buddies know that you are shooting at someone.
Great games, I got all 5 and most DLCs and they’re all excellent. It’s the kind of games that dont get the praise they deserve, like I don’t know many people who know it exists but its great
Not too easy without Silencer . . . Of course, Call of Duty WWII has silencer in every SMG weapons type and I don't remember about using Sniper with a Silencer on it or not but only I remember the Battlefield 1 during Night Stealth Mission on Story Campaign Mode. #WorldWarI #WorldWarII
I always say this game has some hints of realism, but it's mostly sensation and arcade action. It's just some casual fun for me, i even play easy level.
something this "sniper" forgot is....this is the portrayal during the O.S.S. days during World War 2 ironically the first war was called "the great war" and the second is colloquially called "the big one"

I was wondering why he's reacting to a player who plays it like COD instead of a sniper game.
i played it on very hard difficulty and yeah the ai is way smarter at higher diff

Yeah Hiram Percy Maxim
It also depends on the draw poundage on the cross bow (I think that's a real term anyway for bows.)

Dont forget Battlefield 1 on Story Campaign it has a silencer on Sniper during Night Stealth Mission.
- WW1 -
So they were there, but not enough to be on a massive scale
I appreciate this series marines and war vets never really appreciate video games about what they did but these guys seem to atleast have a spirit
silencers were invented in 1902 so, yes silencers were used in ww2. fun fact silencers were generally used by the OSS (Office Strategic Services).

No
Id watch too
if he had a better mic, yeah
Hell yeah! Missed you, Richard!!
Get him to react to another Arma or Squad video.
We can never get enough of realistic games.
supressors were made in 1902 and he is using subsonic rounds which were indeed a thing back then

How are none of these comments mentioning how he didn’t recognize Adolf Hitler?
Cause he is not
He did he just can’t say that name on TH-cam
Mustache man, that’s his new name now XD
I really wish he reacted to someone playing this like it was an actual sniper game and not like it was CoD.
Silencers we’re made in 1902
Why do they always pick the absolute worst gameplay for these experts to react to?????

Not too easy without Silencer . . . Of course, Call of Duty WWII has silencer in every SMG weapons type and I don't remember about using Sniper with a Silencer on it or not but only I remember the Battlefield 1 during Night Stealth Mission on Story Campaign Mode. #WorldWarI #WorldWarII
Just a game people lol
Yes they did
What ever happened to the Gameology Room? Why are all these experts on webcam all of a sudden?
Yes the British used welrods and silenced stens even an experimental silenced carbine (not suppressors) they during ww2
1902 was when the first suppressor was invented
yes, they did have suppressors in WW2
Using "Mustache Man" instead of the H-word is a smart and funny way to avoid youtube demonetization
They did have suppresors back then but in WW2 they didn't use them that much
Subscribed. Great content.
Yes there was silencer in 1944 the silencer was first made in 1925
I got the high ground
I can already sense people joking about the mic Quality
the first gun suppressor was developed in 1902
"This looks so easy"..... Jager invasion
Surpressors were a thing but not heavily used. In WW era, it just people just running and shooting at each other, no time for stealth
Expert's Play? Richard did say it's easy so why don't we have him play the game and see wether if he'll still think it's easy
4:00 yes they did
But I gues it was still new tech
Not used alot
Be three steps ahead plan your moves carefuly
I always say this game has some hints of realism, but it's mostly sensation and arcade action.
It's just some casual fun for me, i even play easy level.
something this "sniper" forgot is....this is the portrayal during the O.S.S. days during World War 2
ironically the first war was called "the great war" and the second is colloquially called "the big one"
yes suppressors were a thing in fact in ww2 William Godfrey Delisle made the quietest firearm in the world even today
They did exist, but they were so good that ended up being useless because the robbed the bullet of a lot of it's velocity
That pistol is a Welrod. They were silent.
The censorship at 0:43 makes Karl sound racist
