    A sizable portion of firearm usage technique is about dealing with recoil. Which is nonexistent in VR.

    Just hold the rifle in front of your nose.

    Fun fact: GIFs have a redefinable 256-color palette, meaning greyscale images with visible banding or dithering are poorly optimized

      Yeah, I keep playing with the various convert options including color count, dithering, etc., trying to keep the sizes small. webms do it better, but as “videos” they are subject to different permissions that don’t allow for easy viewing in some cases.

        mp4 with h264 plays well in almost everything, and will be a fraction of the size.

    It took me FOREVER to figure out what’s wrong, guys. And I felt SO STUPID afterwards lol. Like JEEZ what kind of IDIOT doesn’t see what’s wrong right away. They probably go to the comments to see if someone will tell them. LAWL. Oh man. Yeah.

    Well anyway. Guess I’ll leave now. BYE!!

    Spoiler

    Ok fine. All I can see is the butt of the gun isn’t being braced by his shoulder, so when he shoots it the recoil is going to make it fly backwards and out of his hands. That’s all I’ve got. Idk. Dude’s ambidextrous otherwise.

      You’d be surprised how little recoil there really is with 5.56. It’s a bigger priority to get solid cheek weld and keeping the head upright which often means that most of the stock is not actually in contact with the shoulder, just the corner.

      Some setups will even just have a pad on the buffer tube, or they’ll use a brace that isn’t meant to be shouldered.

      He might be ambidextrous but his gun sure ain’t. Unless it’s one of these weird bullpups that eject cartridges downwards (it’s not) in one of these positions casings will impact his face or arm

      The actor in question likes the smell of his own farts so much that he started to believe he really was the bad ass he acted in his movies. But he’s a joke, really. And lazy. This scene in particular demonstrates this. It isn’t so much that it isn’t braced, but how casually it is swapped in a supposed dangerous situation. You simply wouldn’t handle a real weapon that way. If he deliberately leaned into the lameness for the yucks that would be one thing. But, no. He’s serious. And that makes it really funny.

      When you’re a perfect match for the “mustachioed cop” look, no need to mask. He could be anyone.

            The guy in the GIF, yes. Steven Seagal is his name, in case your were curious. He’s a rare case in the movie indistry in the sense that he is a famous movie star without actually being an actor.

    We once made a fake DVD-cover for a friend’s birthday where we all played different action movie stars. I was Steven Seagal.

    I’m not proud to say that I still have the body to be his double.

    Holding a VR gun is easier when the gun isn’t actually two separate devices you have to hold as if they were a single rigid structure. That’s why I taped my controllers to a stick.
