recoil? what recoil.

this is for those who want the most op gun that still legit in comp play i.e which gun comes up the fastest and does the most damage. as an ak fan im pleased to see other guns just as good

i just wanted to add what else i found about the game stats.

and you mean better, dont you. the fad and the acr outclass the ak for the most part. the fad probably outclasses all ARs.
either way, the game is not very balanced. the mp7 is the most riddiculous smg.

me and some buddies did some testing of our own on this. the fad is crap from what they we found, it all comes down to range i guess either way though assault rifles are out classed by op smg's and machine pistols. if you thought bo was unbalanced this game is worse imo.

as far as gun stats. i like the scar and m14. not a fan of the ak's rediculous recoil, acr is okay but not great for me.

granted its not got the same recoil as say COD1 UO etc but its moving in the right direction again, the worst thing about blackops was the way it made weapon choice pointless with all guns in each class being pretty much the same bar the 1 stand out pwn one, ak74u,famas etc.

Im also a little cautious of weapon stat charts, one you add in factors such as perks, attatchments etc the whole thing changes, prime examples of this was COD4, the AK74u firerate was slightly marginally higher using iron sights than with a reddot, shouldnt of been and was perhaps a sort of bug but it was higher none the less, this wasnt shown in stat charts , offical or not, the other one that springs to mind is MW2's Akimbo G18's.
Its akimbo perk was supposed to dramatically reduce accuracy for dual firepower but for some reason the engine seen fit to ignore that equation and actually increase the accuraccy and power.

I think once you get to the complexity of perk,range,power,attatchment level cod is at now you lose the abillity to 100% predict the outcome of all combinations.

trial and error, just hope they patch the wrongfully overpowered choices quicker this time.

perks yes are gonna make some guns better but in a competitive scene all that is negated. its you and your gun. and for me thats good bye ak and its atrocious recoil hello scar and its fast ads time and fire rate.
