How many of the operators' gadgets are in real life?

I would assume the very large majority, if not all of them, exist in real life. I would also be interested to see if there are any that aren't.
Albiet perhaps a little exaggerated.

I wonder if montagne's shield is real... that'd be dope.

I dont know if its real but still shouldt be hard to make it

I agree.

Don't think Jackal's is real

I'd hope not

if you mean in existence, I assume most of them exist. If you mean in use, then in reality less than 10% are in use. gadgets/ abilities involve the use of explosives such as thermite or fuze are never used because explosives affect structural stability of the building they are assaulting and that is highly dangerous as they risk certain levels of the building collapsing or even the entire place falling in. Electronic related gadgets are slightly more prevalent, signal jammers are used but without the effectiveness or range of mutes jammers, emp yes but it’s not technilogically possible to fit a small nuclear device into a hand held grenade, emps are large scale nukes detonated over a city to blow out all electronics in a large radios in the whole city. Black mirrors most certainly do not exist. As a general rule, most dlc operators abilities don’t exist in real life, and most vanilla ops abilities exist but aren’t used in general. If you are trying to get realism in the game, siege isn’t for you, siege is about as far away as realistic as it can get. Heck, even black ops 3 or infinite warfare is more realistically possible than siege.

FBI/SWAT

Ash - Maybe if a explosion device was placed by hand, but I can't see it being shot from a distance with a launcher then digging itself in then shortly after exploding
Pulse - Military uses heartBeat sensors during missions to track hostiles behind walls or doors so yes
Thermite - Best way to burn down a house
Castle - they probably would wedge a door instead of putting on a full on barricade so probably not

SAS

Thatcher - uses an emp grenade which is (electric magnetic pulse) They don't exist yet, but the U.S Army are apparently trying to find a way to make something like that.
Sledge - Yes definitely.
Mute - Yes , distrupt signals they probably use this at military bases or very restricted areas but way bigger than mutes device
Smoke - His device may be a target for bio terrorists. and usually police forces avoid making weaponary if put into the wrong hands can be very dangerous

all i have time to write for now

Yeah it isn't you can maybe track footprints and have an Idea where the enemy is but you can't specifically know where they are every couple of seconds

They can exist, but what you need an exo skeleton to help you carry the thing. it would be way too heavy
SweetDarsh Jan 22, 2018 @ 4:55am 
I think most of them are real and others are based of and inspired from real life weapons

You can’t track footprints with the scanning mechanism with jackal, the max you can do is see the footprints, to track footprints by scanning and pinging targets location basically requires you to have every floor panel electrically connected to your system. Fingerprints are more likely to be used however same logics, it would require every surface electronically connected to your system which is possible yes, but not feasible because raid locations are not training grounds.

Wtf people. Most gadgets of this game are completely imaginary. In what universe do you live?

I’ll do a breakdown since I have the time.

SAS

Sledge: Most certainly yes, but usually in the form of a battering ram for doors, or really thin walls.
Mute: Signal jamming exists, however it’s only large scale at fixed locations, current tech not feasible for portable jammers with small radius.
Smoke: If official sources are true, biological weapons are at least not publicly used, at least we will not know if they are used by special forces.
Thatcher: as fore mentioned emps can only currently exist by detonating large nuclear bombs over large cities. Citywide all electronics will be down.

FBI SWAT:

Ash: Grenade launchers or just heavy explosives in general will not be used at least in civilian zones or by counterrorist forces. Too much risk of collateral damage, but it certainly exists, but maybe more often as a small det pack used to blast thru locks in walls
Thermite: exothermic reactions utilised in explosives are definitely used irl, but if used in operations as fore mentioned structural integrity is affected
Castle: Kevlar curtains exist but not widely used.
Pulse: heartbeat sensors are feasible and there is current tech, just not as advanced as what pulse has

GIGN:

Rook: no explanation needed, yes exist and yes used
Doc: stimulating shots exist, but they do not restore health in any way or repair any damage caused by bullets, merely blocks out a small fraction of the pain and keep the operator going for slightly longer
Montagne: no Riot shield blocks explosives, only small Caliber bullets, can maybe block a slug or a .45 acp, but will break soon after that
Twitch: yeah, no explanation needed

Gsg9:
Bandit: yeah, but no one uses them to electrify walls
Jäger: portable ads are still in development, trophy systems used on tanks or other vehicles
Blitz: yeah, but the flash device will be destroyed with practically anything
IQ: a device like that exists, but is essentially useless, because nearly everything will show up on the device, electronmagnetic fields further impact reliability

Spetsnaz:

Fuze: hardly anyone uses explosives in hostage situations or bomb situations at risk of collateral damage or accidentally setting off the bomb. Definitely no one uses cluster charges, the building will collapse.
Glaz: thermal scope exists but nearly everything else will be highlighted too
Kapkan: basically tripwires, do exist
Tachanka: yeah, but the face shield should break after 2-3 shots from a rifle

JTF2:
Buck: yeah
Frost: no one uses bear traps

Seals:
Blackbeard: face shield in prototype testing, but feasible
Valkyrie: 360 degree cameras exist, not sure if it’d survive the impact of a fall or stick to any surface

Bope:
Caveira: interrogation is self explanatory, silent step does not exist unless you’re wearing some special shoes
Capitao: no one launches those bolts from a crossbow

SAT:

Hibana’ as fore mentioned anything affecting structural integrity isn’t widely used, too dangerous
Echo: just no,unless there’s a mini nuclear reactor in the drone, the drone should burn out after a few seconds of use, sonic blasts and the hovering mechanism and active cloak will burn through power like nothing.

GEO

jackal: no, firstly no one tracks footprints, they aren’t unique, more feasible will be fingerprints, but if you were to track fingerprints by scanning them, you would need every surface in the building wired up and connected to your device, which isnt impossible, but unless it’s a training facility the place you’re assaulting wouldn’t be prepared beforehand
Mira: one way mirrors exist, nothing as solid as the black mirror, so no

SDU

Ying: yeah
Lesion: cloaked mines prob do not exist, poison mines without cloak do exist but it is at least not used publicly as it is considered chemical weapons

GROM:

Zofia:Double barrel launchers exist, not sure if proximity grenades exist, but the withstand is just pure bs
Ela: yeah, not too sure whether prolixity mechanism is feasible

SMB

Dokkaebi:no, if phones are even brought on missions, they would be silenced or on do not disturb, dokkaebi cannot get past that
Vigil: yes, but I assume without the white outline and not on such a long battery life
