  • It sounds like that due to the 550 RPM fire rate and 30 damage at 10m - 20 damage at 50m

  • @VoinHe

    500 RPM actually.

  • it does really sound like that they fire almost the same round

  • sg is like the g3 imo very powerful decent accuracy, this is with irnv etc

  • if only the IR scope had more magnification :/

  • God I wish the IR scope wasn't patched...

  • great videos man. Most important is that your commentary isnt annoying. Proper

  • G3A3 is 7.62X51 which is the same caliber as the M60.

  • bullshit, i get hitmarkers with the sv98 on hardcore, its even hitmarkered when i shoot them in the neck, and upper chest. POS

  • AI's transport 10feet to knife you.. do you guys smell COD?

  • and it's a battle rifle not an assault rifle.

  • @bigpoppa1234 In BF3 at least, the battle rifle title is given to the MK11 MOD 0, SVD, SKS, M39 EMR and QBU-88... The G3A3 is classed as an AR...

  • It's still reasonably good now, as a medium-long range dmr with an acog and foregrip.

  • one of the greatest bf3 players /watch?v=8CbHiJ0GfA8

  • @LevelCapGaming you talked about halo on this video so i just thought are you gonna buy halo 4 when it comes out.sad its only on xbox :(

  • every time i use the ir scope its really foggy like some one used a smoke grenade

  • @gotpsp06 Yeah, it is not really realistic :/ They nerfed it a lot because kids were whining about it. At the beginning it was fine.

  • @TheKyshu no i mean i cant see 2 feet infront on me when i try to use it

  • @gotpsp06 I know. It is useless, don't use it :P Rather wait for more kills and use the holo sight or Reflex, or 3.4x on bigger maps. The PK-A is good IMO!

  • @gotpsp06 Yeah DICE tried to nerf it but ended up breaking it completely.

  • the invisible gun thing happened to me! check out my channel to see

  • Thought all guns in each class did same bullet damage?

  • @damiennunn That's why this gun is called the hipster cannon, it's the single different wep in the assault class( regarding bulet damage and clip size)

  • @TheBigKill98 haha, I see you watched therussianbadger's assault rifle video

  • @damiennunn similar, not the same, and some lose their damage over distance quicker than others, an example being the L96 does more damage at 50m than say a SV98 even if they both do the same base damage

  • Maybe i've just got used to the sound of the guns but I do remember the guns sounding good or better in BFBC2?

  • Sometimes it is better to revive and get killed because if the person is medic they can revive you.

    :D

  • Techically G3A3 could sound similar...it uses the same round as the m60...7,62 nato round

  • irl this gun has a fucking brutal sound. If your only experience with weapons is from games then i can see that you might misunderstand.

  • Did it get nerfed? It alot weaker now :(

  • This g3a3's sound is way more "peauny" than how it really sounds. In reality its a really deep brutal sound.

  • Comment removed

  • m60 and g3 shoot same bullet 7.62mm

  • @Woodvalex wrong the m60 shoots a .308

  • @xMRxSMILESx the 7.62x51 nato is a .308

  • they should make the same sound from behind the gun as they fire the same 7.62mm rounds

  • @charlieboyopera Different rate of fire so the sound would be different ;)

  • @marekunleashed2 Take out your ear plugs. Then eventually you wont hear anything XD

  • i shot a g3 last i went out to the desert. ill just say it now that ALL .308 battle rifles are fucking badass. couldnt really tell from the open area but i still felt the thump of the weapon. oh yea, its fucking loud as hell, its more of a boom instead of a crack like the AR or even the AK.

  • only feggets use irnv

  • @Xzibit9 npt true

  • @crazedfazed2121 yeah its true

  • the g3 is a battle rifle, not really an assault rifle- that means it fires a full-length cartridge instead of the shorter intermediate cartridges that an assault rifle fires

  • Sound isn't too deep. It fires a 7.62mm round which is a heavy round for a normal assault rifle. It does kinda suck that the sound is the same as the M60 as and as you said 'recycled', but it's justified.

  • wait DICE nerfed the G3A3 right? I was really good with it, but now I can't kill anyone.

  • @asimb0mb more recoil, if you had g3 in BC2 then just use the same strat, tap fire will get you the most kills with it.

  • @metalraider187 I couldn't use the G3 in BC2 either. I tried doing tapfire but the bullets just fly in all directions.

  • @asimb0mb did you try wrastling the recoil a little? im starting to think the g3 might not be the rifle for you. oh well, there are other good ones out there like the FAMAS or the A3/A4, all depends on your strategy with these weapons.

  • @metalraider187 stick that Famas in your anus(no offense)! that thing is way overpowered, just like the USAS(U Suck At Shooting) 12 G Frag! I'm basically trying to unlock everything for every gun. but I don't understand what you mean with wrastling...

  • @asimb0mb drag the stick down during tapfire, thats wrastling the recoil. famas i didnt really like cuz it cant take an underbarrel launcher (i love my nade launchers). USAS... well sorry to say i started that shit, at least on ps3, noone used the USAS or with frags till i did, then i stopped because i would get ludicrous amounts of kills with it (like 54-7 on metro or something like that). just seemed so.. easy?

  • @metalraider187 i also started the tunguska craze, with a fucking epic match on canals rush where i literally went to 52-1 until the end of the match where some wiseguy hit me with a c4-mobile and made it 52-2. now everyone takes the tunny to try and be as epic. anyways your mainstay should be m416 or aek, i find the g3 is only good on certain maps because it needs a little more marksman work than other rifles.

  • Congrats Col LevelCap!!!

  • @warrenpnz u do realize hes like col 28 or something now lmao..... little late

  • @KKMx93 My comments are made in context ;-)

  • isn't this more of a battle rifle than an assault rifle?

  • isn't this more of a battle rifle than an assault rifle?

  • This was my rifle when i was at the army, i can assure you, the sound is pretty much the same comparing the game and the reality

  • the g3 and the m60 shoot the same amunition 7.62x39mm

  • @hilbilly401 Neither gun shoots the 7.62x39mm.

  • IR sucks at long range too don't ever use it if u have a sniper rifle lol

  • I prefer that they didnt make the Co-op fun, otherwise everyone would have this beast gun! plus, it makes unlocking weapons more gratifying. I do agree that the bots knifing is redicoulus

  • It sucks that Dice fucked up the infared. I used to love it too. This gun is awesome, but slow. Its my main gun, but when I get pissed I always switch back to the m416.

  • @Tunainthebrine79 Dude, infrared was to OP, the fact it was nerfed was a good thing, as soon as you got them 100 kills, people never took that attachment of their weapon.

  • @CalumsChannelHD. Look at a gun like USAS Fag rounds.....yes Fag. No skill required, over powering and a lot more difficult to counter than the old infared. Yet they still have not patched it.

  • @Tunainthebrine79 Actually, they did nerf the frag rounds, just not on consoles. They're still powerful and may still see another nerf with the upcoming patch though. Honestly though, I can almost guarantee once everyone stops using frags and switches to slug everyone will bitch about those too.

  • @Duckman1616 at least you can duck to avoid a sgun slug. instead you go into cover, get sprayed just above the cover and die from that. just get rid of splash damage, but increase suppression factor. so imbalanced

  • @CalumsChannelHD IRNV was never OP. You couldn't use it at close range plus it made bullet spread worse. And hey, if you can't beat them, join them.

  • @SkipTheFries If you think it wasn't fine, that's your opinion, but I personally believe it was op, When the game came out, a lot of people had this reaction "Hmm, lets get 100 kills and slap that bitch on my LMG and Rifle" I couldn't play a game without getting killed by someone with that attached. Now on the other hand, they have made it awful so no-one uses it, if they know how rubbish it is.

  • 1:49...Cannot unsound

  • L96 is the best gun

  • YOU GOT COLONEL :) I AM A COLONEL TO A 5 SERVICE STAR COLONEL

  • The m60 does sound like the g3a3 just that the m60 goes moore boom...

  • This gun looks fun to use.

  • g3a3 got nerfed right?

  • @brownjellow1 Yeah it fucking sucks now.

  • is the G3 for all kits?

  • @recoilhurts Assault only

  • i wish IR scopes didn't get nerfed.....

  • I dont like ir scopes, i have to see my gun kick back.in full auto

  • was this g3 gameplay past the patch?

  • its as easy as this, all the weapons that uses the same size of rounds have the same sound to them, alot of sub machine guns have pistol sounds just alot faster so no they dident use the same sound, thats not how DICE works, its a real recorded sound but sounds the same due to the rounds it fires

  • well the sound is because of the type of bullet it uses.i have heard it does 30 damage at its max and 22 at its lowest i have heard

  • Now it's just 30-20 damage. It's now has been extremely nerfed...because some kids complaided about the SCAR being too good up close...m4a1 is just way better, always was and still is. Plus man I get it that you're a competitive player but irnv abuse is...well it's cheap. I also used it a lot and i feel actually a bit dirty.

  • They nerfed it so it doesn't do 34 damage anymore

  • The G3a3 sounds completely different to the m60..

  • @JAEproductions1 that doesn't necessarily make a difference.. The l85a2 and the m16 fire the same round and sound completely different, in fact all the assault rifles except the AK-47 fire the same round (5.56). Most of what influences the sound are the barrel length, materials the rifle is made out of and the size of the chamber when the bolt is open (resonance and all that)

    Hope this was midly helpful

  • im playing nearly 50 hours and i am lvl 40

  • John Travolta used this pistol in Broken Arrow movie

  • When you were talking about the G3A3 sounding like the M40 the G3 is a 7.62mm battle rifle so because it is more powerful it probobly does have a deeper sound.

  • Can you do Rocket launcher review:) awesome video:)

  • the scar h uses the 7.62 round which is the same as dragunov so should hv similar damage

  • @mw2awesome2 actually the dragunov uses the 7.62x54mm round while the scar-H uses the 7.62x51mm cartridge haha

  • @gunwhores haha im 16 and dont care

  • Only have less than 40k left until I unlock this gun. Think I should play some Co-op tonight. ;-)

  • Personally I would have kept the .308 caliber weapons at a higher damage. They fire an uberly powerful round compared to the 5.56/223 weapons. You don't often hear about a man taking a round or 2 of .308 in the chest in living (realistically speaking of course). That and the H&K roller lock tends to recoil more than other comparable guns; so technically that gun should kick more.

  • I use the G3A3 with Bipod + acog/sniper scope + heavy barrel to provide support for snipers in my squad. basically a more versatile sniper rifle with a medkit,

  • this gun is FANTASTIC!

  • Two comments; first of all, about the SCAR being overpowered: the SCAR was perfectly balanced, besides, it shouldn't have even been in the Engineer kit. The SCAR-H isn't a Carbine, it's a Battle Rifle in reality.....just like the G3A3. So the SCAR-H was perfectly fine. Next, I love the G3A3, why did they nerf my favorite rifle?

  • m60 and g3 fire the same round but the sound effect still has the sound of the belt feeding through the m60 which duh the g3 doesnt have..so pretty cheap even though g3 does have a deep heavy sound in real life.

  • they nerf the g3a3 from 34 damage per shot to 30 per shot =(

  • i unlocked all the coop weapons by beating it on hard lol

  • ACOG is sick on this gun.

  • 6:50. Couldn't agree more.

  • This was my rifle at the army, you can't imagine how powerfull it is in reality, and how heavy recoil it has

  • Dice didn't want to bother with making all the weapons sound like they should. Trying to make it like cOd

  • transport ten feet you say... welcome to call of duty

  • Comment removed

  • IRNV IS CRAP NOW

  • it dose that to me on that map all the time but i cant shoot

  • What is the best Assault weapon to use? Aek-91?

  • Im a rank 38 is that low for December 27, please dont call me a noob because I know I am

  • @darknessseess64nin when did you start to play the gam?

  • They sound the same because they fire the same 7.62 x 51mm NATO cartridge and they have a similar barrel length (~5in difference).

  • Paddy cake :D

  • Has the m416 been nerfed already?

  • No, thats dice's fail. While they both fire the exact same round the g3 is clip fed and the m60 is belt fed. Furthermore they have different firing rates, gas management systems and barrel lengths. I'm still mad that they nerfed it so hard.

  • G3 the same caliber as the M60 which is: 7.62x51mm :)

    But I do think the sound from the G3 sounded more realistic in BC2 than in BF3. I have actually fired a G3 in real life (well the AG3 which is a slighted Norwegian modded G3)

  • Gee LvLCap, I thought you were an old Counter-Strike player? Should've known the 553 engi weapon was the terrorist 'Krieg' :P

  • @SerBelmont I knew that. Too bad the accuracy doesn't match up to the CS version or I would love this gun :)

  • @LevelCapGaming You said the sound is to deep, right? Look at the year where this Gun was introduced. 1959. It's the next generation Stg/MP 44 so it's sounds such mechanically.

  • @LevelCapGaming is it just me or is the infared scope fuckin useless now that its been patched?

  • I used to like G3A3, but then it took a ... bullet and got nerfed : (

  • RIP G3

  • you sound like ben from lost. is it just me?

  • I found that the Russian 4 zoom scope is probably the best sight on this gun. Not sure why.

  • You are amazing. In this game best omg.

  • I had the G3A3 in the German Army, it is an über-gun. It´s so powerful. Much better than the G36.

  • great review

  • Haha the ending was great.

  • Thank god they nerfed the Night Optic.

  • ..... the m416 is getting nerfed?

  • the m416 (hk 416) is the standard weapon in the norwegian army, and the g3a3/ag3 was the standard weapon for the army, and is for the Homegard (heimevernet) the g3a3 actually saunds alot like what it does in the ame.. :D

  • Lol, u said u had like little over 50 h to rank 45, i have 83 already and i'm only at 38

  • ur awesome keep posting videos

  • this optic is like almost cheat ;/

  • G3 is arguably more powerful than the SCAR(I personally think they are both balanced due to ROF and mag size limitations).

    From 0-8 meters, SCAR and G3 do 34 damage per shot. From 9-75m G3 goes gradually down and stops at 20 damage per shot. While scar goes down to 17 damage per shot, and from 9-60m(15m shorter). G3 also has an overall lower recoil and higher bullet velocity.

    Only real advantage of the SCAR is a faster ROF, 600 instead of the G3's 550.

    All this is post-patch data(I'm a nerd).

  • @kang174 thanks for the info!

  • @LevelCapGaming the g3 got nerfed. now it's the worst gun in the game.

  • @kang174 sadly, all of these guns have been nerfed so they only do 30 damage. Despite never even using them, I don't understand why they just severely limited the 3-shot capability instead.......

  • The G3 and the M60 fire the same round out of the same length barrel at the exact same rate of fire. True the actions, are very different, but other factors really do cause for an extremely similar "bang".

  • Im pretty sure beta had lower experiecing scaling for levels, just so they could test all the content of the game.

  • i noticed you play on the pc... so does nerfing a gun on one platform affect all platforms the game is played on? i used the scar and i didnt find it overpowered i think if ppl are getting owned they are so quick to use the words "over powered" ump45 was beast in beta now i find it kinda shit (ps3) when ppl talk nerfing guns and complain theres a good chance your going to make the gun worse and you still wont use it..... think ppl use your gun where its best suited... think before sayin O/P

  • The sound of the G3A3 here sound wimpy. I recall it sounded more like a distinct "BANG, BAMG" and not a "pop, pop" like in this video.

  • on the xbox i cant even fire when i have that glitch and it goes on for several matches straight :S

  • Finally a video that without a heli

  • Comment removed

  • good review, I just unlocked it. So what's the song at the end of this vid?

  • WTF 64 PLAYER SERVA ???? NOT AVALIBLE ON PS3 ;(

  • The G3 is not an assault rifle technically speaking, it's a battle rifle, it fires the same 7.62x51mm round as the M60, however the "firing note" of a weapon is partly dependent on the round being fired, but also on the noise of the guns action, and the exploding gas escaping out of the firearm, in theory much like the noise of an engine's exhaust system serving as one of the characterizing traits of it's acoustic signature. I only understand 40% of what I just typed.

  • @wikieditspam Awesome thanks for the informative response. I feel smarter... "feel" being the key word.

  • @LevelCapGaming Yeah, that comment was a mistake, sorry for the bullshit, I was kind of just conjecturing and acting like it was fact.

  • @LevelCapGaming Its faster than doing the hit and run mission in 5 minutes and getting 11k points each time on easy mode?

  • Comment removed

  • @LevelCapGaming rifles that fire the 7.62 round are called battle rifles. Since the M60 and the G3 use the same bullet, they should sound the same

  • Your talking about farming Co-op and using tricks like intentionally failing parts of missions, and I just finished watching your video about stat padding.

  • "I'm a big fan of the IR scope"- who doesn't. I mean, it is probably the most OP thing in the game.

  • The sound is WAY off! Its ridicolous.. Tried the gun when I was in the army here in Norway

  • how is the m416 oped?

  • the G3A3 is a battle rifle, it shoots the same rounds that the m60 uses (massive rounds) that's why the sound is so badass and I love this gun! :D

  • Keep post more staff like that thumbs up u deserve it

  • But I don't want to do co-op :( I really want that KH2002 though. I thought it was badass in the campaign.

  • @exiquio There is also the MP 412 REX (Beast), the mp7 (amazing), the m39 EMR (cool sniper rifle), the SIG carbine, the 93R (fucking cool) and the KH 2002 it's very cool also

  • @PlayfulRobinho Is Co-Op fun? Would players expect me to use a headset? I have a cheap one, but I am on PS3 and I rarely see one used in Multiplayer.

  • @exiquio Better using a headset, it is funny, but not as the single player campain, but the thing is that you need to do it if you want the KH 2002, and that gun is badass with the 3 rounds burst, I have unlocked 3 weapons yet, but it becomes boring when you finish the missions :) I enjoy playing with my new weapons in the multy tough

  • @PlayfulRobinho Thanks. I tried it last night, and it was cool. I got disconnected much more than I usually do in MP, but you'll have that. Seems like a long grind to get the weapons I want, but that's life.

  • @exiquio yeah, when I got the game the first things I tried was the SP and the MP, I just didn't know that to unlock those 7 guns you had to play CO-OP, but I think It's fine, I've already done all the missions but I've only unlocked the mp 412, the mp7 and the kh 2002, but It's a long way to get all the guns :(

  • NO HANDS - LIKE A BAWS!

  • SCAR-H has high damage because it fires a full-size rifle round. It should be subject to higher damage than the rest of the carbines offered to the Engineer class. Although, I will admit its damage is a bit out of control. A re-balancing should be in the cards.

  • The SCAR has 36% more damage than any of the other engineer weapons and is comparable to the G3A3. Check out my Platoon and you can download the entire spec sheet I have posted there. My in-game name is PumpJacka.

  • tell us about AS VAL.

    and SPOT ENEMIES!!

  • I look forward to your thoughts on the AS VAL. I agree that some of the guns have ridic' dama
