It's because the wings are too low on the Corsair. The center of lift is so far below the center of mass that it makes them want to topple over. It makes them nice and maneuverable for low-speed dogfights, but going straight or getting them up to speed makes them upset and they want to spin around. xp

Well, he didn't write it, direct it, or produce it in any capacity, but if what you mean by 'worked on' is 'scrapped the designs for the project and handed it over to Platinum who rewrote the script, scenarios, and plot' then yes, I suppose he did. o.o

Is that an F4U Corsair? Gods, those things are beautiful. :D

...Neither...was...Revengence? :I

Why does Snake have his shirt on in that video? That's not canon! xD

Snake's Revenge is about as canon as Revengence. :I

That's working as intended. The idea was that due to Jack's drugging and VR training, he has difficulty distinguishing reality from simulation (and says so during several codec calls). Therefore, the ending of the game, as seen from Raiden's perspective, is a bit ambiguous in that regard. How much of it was real?

Oh no, I totally agree. frankly I feel bad she had to go out on stage like that. 6.6

Her makeup is hideous. :c

Kind of tired, so I'm not going to use the math explanation for this, but yes most of the force would translate into angular momentum. Imagine you have a ball floating in a pool. If you apply force by pushing it right in the center, it does indeed move back. However, if you apply that same force to the top of the

I wasn't thinking about the gunpowder, I was wondering about the primer, which must actually ignite to start the reaction. Though, I'm reasonably convinced it would be able to. However, I wonder what the lowest temperature is that an ignition reaction could occur at. With no atmosphere or ambient temperature, it gets

To be fair, that was an animated texture, not a lighting effect.

I could see being underwater effecting the ejection of cartridges, due to the resistance of the water. It likely wouldn't stop the weapon from firing, but it would probably make it less reliable and more prone to jams. Being in space—as one astute user above pointed out—would play havoc with the grease lubricating the

Agreed. So, the situation is more plausible than I initially posited, but is still pretty darn silly. xD

Thank you for calculating that, it's rather fascinating. :3
I will bring up one issue though, which is that a human being holds a rifle at shoulder-level, meaning that the force of recoil is being applied above the center of mass almost like a fulcrum. So after a hundred bullets in your example you wouldn't be moving

All excellent points, I didn't think about the effects of temperature on the lubrication in the weapons. :3
However, I still think the recoil is a huge issue; the mass of the bullet may be small, but the forces acting upon it are rather incredible. Even firing a three-round burst would likely be enough to put you into

I admit I was being hyperbolic for dramatic effect. :p

I'm not a gun expert, but yes- looks like modern bullets use an oxidizing agent that lets them fire underwater. I'm still not sure about space, since water is a pressurized area. Under water the expansion of gasses creates a bubble of air from the decompressive nature if the surrounding water and the gun fires. In

Oh I'm not complaining. Nitpicking the physics of this scene is the most fun I've had with Call of Duty since the first Modern Warfare. x3
