The Super Shit Rifle - 15

I lost track of how many times he repeated himself in an attempt to big up/sell it. I can't stand him at all. I've seen less bullshit come out of a muck spreader.

Edit: Further to the above, I don't think I can deal with hearing anyone say ambidextrous for the rest of the week.

Please can I have a puke response icon under the "like" options for posts? ?

See, I used to like Nov. Back when he was just himself - SB Fabi would occasionally be there, but it was just a guy who loved his VSR playing the game, and doing well. I died a bit inside when he accepted the Redwolf or whoever's offer, and ditched his TM G18 and Safariland holster setup for whatever flavor of the day they wanted him to use in a cloth holster. That was the day I knew he was going downhill, and we may have finally reached rock bottom.

On a side note, whats with all the VFC hate? Theres an absolute ton of them on this side of the pond, and while older models were admitably bad, everything Avalon and up has been a massive success here. Heck I own like 10 VFC guns - an Avalon, three M&P-9s for dry fire practice at our range, a M27 LE, a M27 GBB, a 417, a G28, a G28 LE, and a few others. My TM 416 NGRS Delta broke before any of those.

all the airsoft youtubers did, it's the same old tale:

starts youtubeing for a bit of fun

gets some views, some good gameplay

naturally encounters a cheater in the wild, thinks fuck it i'll upload the footage anyway

boom video explodes, suddenly ad revenue is on the radar

starts putting up more cheater videos, but there aren't enough cheaters

well, now we go try to find the cheaters and the bad sportsmanship, and if we can't find them we'll make them

the market is as much to blame, after all the cheater videos are what get the views, but ultimately it's become a parody of airsoft.

unfortunately kid watches it, thinks "aww cool i wanna do that"

marketing opportunity, them dollar signs start rolling in the eyeballs

and here we are.

nov is probably a nicer fella in reality than he portrays himself as, same as the likes of mustang, but you act as something for long enough it's gonna change you.

Yea there’s a handful of youtubers I’ve met who still maintain a good attitude and good videos. Alfonse, Swamp Sniper, and I believe Matt (though I’ve never played with him - we chatted at SHOT a few years back).

 
Plenty of people in the FB Owners groups posting screenshots of chats with CS where they got told to pull the trigger correctly or any other excuse to not refund/replace anything, this got accentuated when the SSG10 was released and people found metal shards inside their cylinders and the CS answers were cringy as hell, literally "feed it quality bbs" when bbs have no effect on manufacturing residues messing up the internals, or stuff like that.

In my case I sent them detailed pictures of my SSX23 with a bent outer barrel, comparing it to a genuine TM one. They did send me a replacement without crying too much, but only because I sent them really detailed pictures of what it should've been vs what it looked like, our friend @Cr0-Magnon had issues with them recently about a hi-capa slide disintegrating itself after a handful of mags.

It's more the case of dealing with people being deceived by false advertising than anything else.

Back to the gun, I was expecting a Cyma/JG with roughly the same parts (Titan/Aster, faster gears and motor, ML rubber) for about €300. It would've been a much better solution than getting in touch with the legit worst AEG manufacturer after Ares (on a side note, would you imagine Ares OEM'ing Novs stuff? lol) creating an unnecessarily expensive M4.

His stuff is aimed at little kids and new players, this is going to unleash a shitstorm once the first guns start going back to be refunded/replaced under warranty. And we all saw what "warranty" means for Nov with the SSG10.
I must have been born lucky rather than handsome because,and I've said it before,had my ares amoeba 013 for 3years now and it's never played up. 

Only one I've had an I like it!

Play nice now ?

Regards 

 
Trying to remove who's attached to it from the equation, I just wish it wasn't so 'safe'. Don't get me wrong, going through and making a replica of each popular RIF on the market one by one is probably a smart business move but it's just so... boring. I'm sure the 'SSScorpionEvo' will be a real revelation.

If only someone where to literally torture test Nov's airsoft gun to the point it would need maintenance (maybe mix a bit of sand with the bbs so the hop rubber gets shredded) then send it to Negative Airsoft! But at that price I doubt anyone (who's not a fan boy) will be willing to buy it. 

Luke is a funny guy! I like his American accent and Solid Snake (Metal Gear Solid) voice! ?

I reckon Novritsch wants to be Pew-Pew-PewDiePie.  All that's left is to be adopted and dropped by Disney, some casual racism, and then a descent into Nazi memes and merch.

Boom you just push it in? What’s he talking about here!!! Ooooooh it’s got a Gate Titan fitted as standard. And it’s been fine tuned with the best parts inside so please don’t crack her open kiddies! And such a snappy trigger response. What’s there not to like ?

Oh wait. It’s got no TM magic dust. Sod that! 

 
 That was the day I knew he was going downhill, and we may have finally reached rock bottom.


I remember watching this video when he released it and I was genuinely interested in his opinion. In hindsight I now realise he was just warming his viewers up for an SSP1 sales pitch...

Works out to just shy of £500 but all my orders have been in euros and then you end up paying based on current ROE. It won't give you a GBP price on the site.....and no, I'm not buying one!

Okay. So we are both getting scammed hard by noviboyy lul

 
Only if you buy it. Personally it takes more than having some goontube "celebrity" name on it to make me want something 

 
"We" as in the poor fucks who a) live in the EU and b) are actually desperate enough to buy one ;)

Yea... However, the reason I knew a bit more at the time was due to me offering him and a few other Youtubers the (at the time) new GLS holster. Would have solved his holster troubles. However, he declined. I won't get into it more than that as I was officially working for Safariland at the time, but I essentially knew at that point he was being told what to use, not making his own choices.

 
"Don't open it we promise everything's fine just don't check because then you might break it" Uh huh
