VSV or Kalash 2012?

[La Criatura Espada]

On the bridge trying to decide. I'm assuming because of the lower clip count it is more powerful, but idk.

[Jig McGalliger]

VSV, 2012 bounces around like crazy.

[Zombits]

Tried all assualt rifles on many playthroughs and good old AK47 seemed the best overall.

VSV - mags are only 20
K2012 - extremely inacurate like Jim said, also seems weak, worst gun in the game
AKSU- limited range but good rate of fire, quick reloads and aiming
RPK - low rate of fire, slow to aim down the sight
bstard - as the name says, no accuracy even after modifications

AK47 does the most damage per bullet and acurracy is fine on short bursts.

Take anything exept Kalash 2012, your better with a paintball gun ;)

I like VSV "shooting feel" but prefer Kalash 2012 due larger ammo clip.

[Cursed Hawkins]

if you have access to the Developer Pack you can use these weapons in the firing range and the Bastard gun is accurate you just can't hold the trigger down if you do bursts you'll hit targets with it.

[La Criatura Espada]

The Kalash 2012 I find is quite accurate, at least thats cuz I learned the recoil pattern XD

[Artrysa]

The Kalash is very accurate, but you shouldnt spray with it. It looks like a smg but it is by all means still a assault rifle. I prefer taking single shot headshots. The kalash never failed to kill, unless its one of those heavy armored grunts.

Good old AK47 is my favorite, together with the 6 mag shotgun. Both upgraded with laser and reddot. And silencer on AK after first uprade shop. Neve buy the weapons. Always pick them up and only use MGR to upgrade.

[Logan]

Both suck.
Use RPK.

[Logan]

Or even normal AK is better than those.
Kalash 2012 is just a p90 with another name.
And VSV is just..weak for me. Recoil,small mag,nah just nah.

If a 20-round mag isn't enough bullets for you in Metro, I think you're playing the game wrong.

Against humans, 20 rounds + decent aim and trigger discipline can take out 5-10 humans at a modest estimate before you'd need to reload. Against mutants, you'd be better off using a Shambler, Saiga, or Valve w/ laser sight than *any* of the game's assault rifles.

This assumes you're not using MGR. If you are, then the VSV is the best assault rifle stealth or going loud, because it's a little more accurate than the other ARs.

imo
VSV=good damage and good stability just the low magazine size.
RPK=just like an airsoft gun, has lots of bullets but damage is just pathetic
Kalash=good damage, good magazine size, bad recoil
Kalash 2012=good firerate, hits like a bloody peashooter
B a s t a r d=utter garbage, nyet.
Abzats=absolute beast of a pulverizer with the full auto adapter.
Saiga=blegh
Shambler=blegh
Duplet=blegh
Ashot=BLEGH
Lolife=Blegh
Revolver=okay
Valve=nah, just use the Preved.

For me, the trusty ol AKM is the way to go wiht the Ext. mag, 2x optic and suppressor. The Klash is ok but if feels like it hits less hard and takes more shots to put people down. The VSV I love and I'd like to use but it seems to be a bit underwhelming. AKM 2x optic Suppressed, Saiga RDS Suppressed, Revolver 2x optic and Suppressed.

What is "MGR" ans how is it used to upgrade weapons??? IS there a mod system for this game or a save editor of some sorts? I really wish they had the 9x39 R3 Vikhr and dropped the pistol or some of the other "sniper" weapons that you just don;t use in this game.

VSV: Good, for distance combat or furtivity

Kalash 2012: accurate as VSV, high rate of fire, accurancy is unsuitable for conserving ammunition. I really like it, so you can use it when tyou have other weapons for furtivity

RPK: Bad, like an airsoft gun

Kalash: Good, nothing else to say

Bastard gun: He is funny, you can use it when you already finish the game and you replay the game for fun.
