What is the gun meta?

[TheBustyDuck]

It takes me 6 - 10 hits to kill people but they down me in 2, so I'm obviously not building my guns right. What is the meta build for non-snipers? What gun and attachments will make my gun good enough?

M4A1 it seems, everyone is playing it :)

You guys are looking into the M4A1's balance right?

literally everything that isn't the L86A1

Beats me - most people are level 20 or lower so won't have most guns unlocked. Headshots probably do huge damage compared to body shots which is why you feel you get destroyed quickly.

Most guns don't seem to have any spread, just recoil

MP7 is a starter weapon, and while you do not have ranks gives you a very good option with the default build working really well.

The only class I feel meh on weapon choices is support...

Edit: The main con and well this does not just apply to the MP7 is it feels very slow to reload and if you force drop the mag.

I was in the last play test and I saw a lot of higher lvl and top of scoreboard people using the P90. SMGs in general seem like a good weapon group with quick TTK and you can use them from a range. Just get use to the recoil and find the right attachments.

Make sure your wearing a helmet, Armor matters in this game, you probably get headshot.

Is it even overpowered? Isn't it just that it's the default starter weapon and everyone is reset back to 0.

MP7 absolutely feels stronger
25/950
vs
30/700

Damage fall-off hardly feels like it exists in most engagements

I find with the L86 fighting the recoil is futile, I slapped a control mod on it and went from hitting all 4 corners of my screen in 1 burst to finding it rather useful.

I personally enjoy the AK12 - solid gun and honestly just try to aim for the head. A lot easier to get head shots here than other games... due to the fact they are blocks XD

me personally I've been using m4 on everything (till i get the scar) but on support im rocking th 249 I have killed SOOO many snipers with it I just lmao at their rage in chat now

The gun it's self is not OP but with spected out for least vert recoil it's a laser with decent RPM and good DPR.

Once you get to lvl 15 the AK you unlock is very good, set it up with the vertical grip, tactical barrel, and sight of choice and youve got yourself a gun that can carry you to the later lvls where you can get the FAL. The FAL is my personal favorite gun from the playtests but its lvl locked behind 140 now :(

M4A1 and AK 15 by far good guns but M4 is just a lazer weapon atm kinda too OP
