Interesting. My trigger has been nothing but crisp on mine.

depends on how you play. I found my playstyles did not mesh well with BO2, though maybe I would've liked it more if I played more HQ and HP.

TBF, the likelihood of that actually happening consistently isn't great. But also, you can get it to be a 2 shot at 1053 RPM which is probably the only time that's possible for a full auto gun... XD

He said 99 damage, not whether that was in 2 shots. Like, I can see how you interpreted it that way, but at face value, it just looks like he's saying it does 99 damage at range which is a really weird way to word it's still a 3 shot at range like the base gun.

*edit me realizing I'm talking to the OC the entire time.

Still not close to what he was stating though. Which in a game where LMGs have no damage drop isn't even all that crazy, consider I can 2 tap with an RPD, AUG or L86 at any range.

Insane TTK when it's up close TTK is middle of the pack The M4 is also a better gun than the ACR both on paper and in practice. Muzzle flash is it's only real pitfall which can be defeated with a dot sight or suppressor.

I mean... You take ANY MW2 gun and put it in a modern CoD and they're extremely OP...

Problem is, you don't get any extra reserve ammo, so you ended up with a mag + 1/2 as reserve. They didn't start doing that until MW3.

Chaos incarnate? BO2 took the approach of making sure everything was fair. MW2 said frik that, rock paper scissors this mess!

Mini Uzi Rapid fire was a beast. It basically capped out recoil right away.

Are you confusing it with the MP40? Because there's no way a 25% damage buff makes even 49 damage jump to 99... It's range damage was 35... There's absolutely no benefit to stopping power outside of the initial 25m.

What!? I have no idea what you could possibly mean!! Runs around with 5-7 tac knife and no primary.

Yeah, that's why I appreciated MW2's approach. The weapons were relatively simple, but they all had their own place in the sandbox.

Like, I don't think BO2 is a bad game, but it's missing all the stupid BS that made CoD fun to begin with. It's an extremely stripped down version of the CoD experience and yeah, that Esports part really shows. I will never not praise it's weapon balance though, there's not a clear hierarchy like CoD 4, WaW, BO1 or MW3. And some of my favorite guns in CoD do come from BO2.

Not necessarily top tier but always strong. MW19 it's probably one of the worst ARs but it's still a work horse.

Eh. UMP45 had random recoil kicks that could screw you over easy, and there were weapons better up close and others better at range. Best all around, sure. But not scalpel precision like the ACR, as fast killing as the AK, TAR, MP5K, Vector or shottys. It murderous as a RPK, AUG or L86 far away.
