AK/Car mod pack worth it?

[^0Phoenix]

straight to the point,already own gage mod courier,big bank,overkill and armored transport, I want to support the game a bit more. I love the car-4, is that weapon pack mod worth it? What else is worth it if not that?

[PrivateKI]

I would say the Courier Pack benefits the CAR-4 better, but the Butcher pack is great for the AK.

[Flashfall]

The pack is total gun porn for the AKs and a big buff as well, and minor gun porn/buffs for the CAR series rifles (a big boost if you don't have courier though). It also gives you access to the best DMRs in the game for Overkill and under.

Depends on how comfortable you are with grinding achievements, but I'd say the CAR-4 gets some pretty good stuff (the EMO Foregrip, THRUST Lower Reciever and LW Upper Reciever in particular) from it, though not as much as the AKs did.

Hell, with this Pack+the Courier Pack you can make a 47/18/25 CAR-4 with a 60-round mag.[pd2skills.com]

[Demoman?]

The biggest thing I like about the AK/CAR pack was that it made the Para extremely viable, getting on the same tier as the Uzi. But to address "what else is worth it," Gage's historical pack comes with an LMG, a sniper rifle, a strong SMG, and an alright pistol. Since you don't have the LMG or sniper rifle pack, this can be a cheap alternative to buying those individual packs, as well as giving you a competitive SMG option (since you don't have any Hotline Miami dlcs from what you've said)

I just got it. I already had a couple of the achievements unlocked from side jobs. The other achievements are kind of a drag and I've yet to unlock them (e.g. Pain Train, OVE7200, Turtle Always Wins, etc.). Most of those kind of require that you either have a crew of regular players to team with, or that you have a solid pick-up group of pubs who get what to do and are willing to play along.

Here's my advice: play with pd2skills.com and build out weapons with the AK/CAR pack mods and see if you think they're worthwhile BASED ON THE MODS YOU CURRENTLY HAVE. Some of these items only really come alive in certain combinations, and you may not have a particular mod yet (e.g., I just got Firebreather today). I'd also take a look at this guide: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=251751235&searchtext=optimal+weapon

It highlights the breakpoints in DW for how many shots it takes to kill enemies. If, given the mods you have, the AK/CAR mods get you from 45/18/25 to 47.5/19/30, that's actually not worth it, since you'll still be firing the same number of rounds to take down a tanback cop, and the extra accuracy above 18 and stability above 25 are functionally meaningless.

Yes and since you don't mind cheating your achievements, you'll get all the mods instantly.

Well, depend on your playstyle. I think this one is really worth it because I got E.M.O. forgrip that increase concelment without have the less stability as downside.

Guess not, or it wasn't permanent. The mods need to have a talk about how they deal with cheaters, so it can be consistent among all of them.

Annoyed the thread was locked though, it had some good talk about the minigun.

[Urazz]

I don't think it's quite worth it if you just use the Car 4 but it's great for the AK rifle family guns and the other guns in the Car family.

well yeah, I have cheated. I wouldn't though, I only did it to get the weapon mods instantly, nothing less,nothing more (the achievement one was just for the lulz). I don't go around in public lobbies 1 hitting dozers, I play mostly offline or with friends.
