Why are revolvers so rare in modern video games?
>>388861474
CoD kids don't think they're as tacticool as plastic shit
>>388861474
Because you don't look hard enough.
>>388861474
Because they are fairly rare in modern times?
>>388861814
this too tho'.
KF2 alone has THREE pairs of different revolver guns.
>>388861474
Dunno, they're probably the coolest weapon in the world.

Why aren't you shooting the creepy midget on the banister?
>>388861474
they are?
>>388861814
But I did, that's why I'm asking, Anon.
Shitty ancient technology is ancient and shitty.
>>388863910
Oh shit I am sorry
>>388864254
Sorry for what? My daddy taught me not to be ashamed of my guns. especially since It's in such good size and all.
>>388862523
Because its a waste of ammo
>>388861474
Because modern guns have replaced the archaic revolver. They're obsolete and have no place in modern media.
>>388861474
Because they're heavy.
But heavy is good.
Heavy is reliable.
If it doesn't work, you can always hit them with it.
Also, offers great protection from zee Germans.
Because most shooters are set in the modern age or future where revolvers would be objectively obsolete.

>>388866532
Funny how wrong you can be
Because they're not.
You can find one in every other game, but most games don't have more than that single token revolver to appease the revolve hipsters.
>>388866627
Show me ten (10) real life operators who use inferior revolvers.
>>388866721
Why? This is about video games.
But just wait a sec, I'll go dig around in my image folders...
>>388866710
I love HCs in destiny, shame they got nerfed so hard.

What the fuck is wrong with his upper to lower torso, he looks like a square with arms/legs.
>>388866721
OK... Starting with the GIGN, whose main sidearm of choice is indeed .357 Magnum revolver.
The reasons they chose this over modern automatics?
-No slide moving backwards when shot, hitting the ballistic shield or environment, and thus jamming.
-Greater stopping power than 9mm and faster than .45ACP
-Lower ammo-cap -> operator has to stay calm and aim, which is important in hostage situations.
-You can load tons of different ammo types into the cylinder, and it will fire.

>>388866532
call me back when they make single action semi automatic pistols that let you do sick fukken tricks
>>388867414
I am a no gunz and was wondering what type of ammo goes into a .357
.38 Special works, right?
>>388862027
>caps indicate that it's a pair of black powder 1858s and not conversions
>not a huge cloud of smoke spewing out after each shot
I like Tripwire's animators and all, but it would have been cool if they had modeled the guns properly
>>388861569
Except they're hailed as the second coming of Christ in CoD.
>>388868367

The Eu faction primary sidearm, the other faction uses some Japanese made dumb as fuck laser plasma pew pew spamgun sidearm.
>>388869067
thanks
>>388869128
fuck you nigga the pac weapons were the fucking best
Luv dis Gun
>>388869386
Sure they were, but the P33 was still fucking great. FA-37 and P33 would be the greatest combo of all time.
>>388861474
It's a shame, Revolvers are pretty darn cool
>>388869136
no problem man
>>388866429
Boris, you sneaky fucking Russian
>>388862350
>tech demo
wait.. what tech demo?
Because semi-automatics are superior.
>>388867052
mmmmmmmmm dat thigh gap
>>388862027
this dudes aim is shit
>>388867248
>formerly known HC "The Last Word Of Zeus" nerfed to "Mumbling to Self as Other Guy Leaves Room"
That was one cool fucking gun. IMO, Destiny has had some pretty spectacular weapon designs.
>>388861474
>"Here to do some business with the big iron on his hip."
i want an actual game with this gun
>>388868258
i hope this one comes back in two
the whole thing about it was that it had good hipfire and could fire very quickly but on console destiny you just didn't want to hipfire period in my experience

a game, maybe a full VR game with this complex, high-maintenance and kind of fussy-but-highly-rewarding- future-gun
new vegas' that gun is just a handy and fairly effective 5.56 handgun that's unique in that it has an unusual ammo type but not really in any other ways

45 70 revolver has to be one of my favorite vanilla guns in fnv

>the ONLY way to get this gun is to loot it off of a ranger
>they're hand-crafted for rangers after 20 years of service to the republic
>even if you loot one off of a ranger you didn't kill you have to know while using it that this gun isn't for you, it's the prized possession of someone rotting in the desert

For the longest time TLW was broken as fuck in crucible.
>>388874538
Shit like that is the reason why I don't use it as my personal revolver. Instead I just use pic related, even if it is a modded revolver.
>>388874696
it's still pretty good in close quarters, I enjoyed using it when I had to get the chaperone
but I still felt like I had to ADS to land those chained headshots
>>388874538
What am I supposed to do, use the regular Hunting Revolver?
>>388874749
It's bad i can tell that's sweet revenge from NVB just by looking at it
>>388875315
well, you could think up some justification like "i took up the gun of my friend who died in the wilderness/in battle" but it's going to be loose
>>388875437
It ain't bad to acknowledge NV's unofficial expansion pack.
