Famas was better than both of them, why do you think in pro play for black ops 1 it was the only weapon used 90% of the time. They even called the game Famas ops
FAMAS in Bo1 was banned in european competitive play because 4 out of 4 players in every team in US used FAMAS only. Let that sink in…4 AR’s only…no smg’s. FAMAS was prohibitively OP for a reason
I definitely agree with the Famas (MW2) and VMP (BO3). The AK47 in BO1 was just as good as the Commando and Galil. And Scar-H just felt so smooth when you used it.

I loved the Barrett from mw2 and is definitely able to state the intervention directly in its eyes, when a gun fires so much that the sound can’t even keep up with the gun you know it’s phenomenal
Barrett is THE modern warfare sniper. Such a legendary gun, especially in that campaign. The intervention on the other hand was a clone gun of an already underwhelming sniper.
Intervention ADS'd quicker, had more mobility, and to my memory possibly fast reload time. So yes as a sniper the Barrett was better but being that COD is a run and gun game the Intervention preformed better for the fast engagements.@115zombies935
@@115zombies935 True, but that's why the intervention (and later MSR or even L96) were loved, the fact you couldn't just fire like crazy made every shot count, using it efficiently is something only skilled player could do probably why it was so popular (in close quarter, firing a full Barret's clip without aiming was perferctly viable, doing the same with an intervention needed a shitload of luck) Also apply to spas or model shotgun, not being able to spam the R1/RB/right mouse make one way more mobile
Remind me the meta game progression? IRC at one point the bizon, mtar, and vector were all top tier smg choices. What got patched and what finished as the best?
I think the G11 from BO1 is very underappreciated, its basically a laser beam with insane TTK. I won so many standoffs against Famas, SMG but also Galil and Sniper players with it, its incredible. Still rather hard and technical to use
Probably why i hasn't made the list, the reason why you won standoffs are probably because you played well rather than the weapon, overall nearly all weapons can be awesome in the hand of a good players, but some weapons can carry a player while some other need to be mastered
I concur, Fal should be way higher. It had zero recoil, with a fast trigger finger you can shoot it fast as hell and it had absurd damage. I remember Parasite and Clayster obliterating pro's with it before the ban
The MP5 on Cod4 and MP40 from WAW to me were the most meta guns I can remember. If you were in a lobby that full of sweats, these were guns you would always see being used. I remember the MP40 being a one shot headshot with stopping power and you could have a drum mag. Also the cod4 MP5 with stopping power and no attachment was so OP. If I had to say what my favorite ever is though, the TAR from MW2 was a monster with FMJ
The Lewis from WWII not even being mentioned is criminal, that gun was ridiculous. Also want to give a shoutout to the M-60 (I don’t remember) but the long from ghosts with a high fire rate that everyone used with a thermal
It was me 🤣 I was one of them who laid down at different locations in a map with thermal scope because they were soooooooo hugggggeee😅. Loved hitting that one vector guy across "whiteout or Stonehaven" running through the large map to reach my location 😂😂
The FAL OSW was not *immediately* banned in competitive bo2. It actually took several months and almost near the end of the BO2 life cycle where they finally gbanned it. The FAL also commonly killed in 3 since it only 2 shots in its initial range which only goes to about 14 meters. Select fire on FAL also got completely gutted after the nerf, so it’s irrelevant.
volkssturmgewehr in CoD WW2 would be a contender but it was nerfed pretty quickly so it didn't have the longevity like some of the other guns but pre-nerf it was basically a MW3 ACR with a WW2 skin
After seeing both ACRs pop up and knowing #1 was left, I panicked then remembered your comment from the Cod4 AK, mentioning there was still another Cod4 gun… “M16, Cod4!” Whattya know? Lol good list my guy, pretty spot on, thanks for putting this all together
rarely anyone knows about this, but in cod ghost, the pre patch msbs was the most broken thing i’ve ever witnessed not counting glitches or exploits, there’s very little footage of it since they nerfed it so quickly, but godamn. in a game where the TTK was already so fast, that gun took it to a whole nother level. Cross map on stone haven people would get shredded in milliseconds
I used MSBS in all small maps, the 3 round burst was deadly. Adding quick draw to it meant a lot since hitting the 3 bullets first, could mean instant death for opponents 😅
I can tell you are a veteran/very good Cod player with your opinions on the rankings, as well as the descriptions of the weapons. Extremely good video 👍
I’m surprised the m40a1 wasn’t mentioned anywhere. Def one of the most revolutionary game mechanics with the scope being brought to the eye thus creating quick scoping. I only play on console so it was big for us at the time to be able to fluidly run around and be able to pop a shot off with a sniper in that way
No desert Eagle from cod4mw is a crime. Hands down easily best secondary it was like full auto and two shot kill. But solid list mostly. I would listed RPK and Aug too. Scar and Remington were op too.
i don't comment often on youtube, but i been looking forward to this video! and i totally agree with you the FAMAS from BO1 is insane and easily the best AR in BO. but also, the mp40 is in my top 3 best guns it is insane!
I do agree with your number 1 pick. But i think that the Vmp (Bo3), is another weapon i think deserves the number 1 spot, because of the great firerate, Ammo size and damage.
Perhaps the best LMG in any cod ever. Problem is the competition in mw2 was so high that it just got lost in a sea of other overpowered guns in the poll. Spraying down lane in terminal spawn killing what that thing caused many ragequits.
Don’t care what anyone says, the MK14 from MW3 was super underrated. From most if not all distances it was a two shot upper body and the fire cap was super high. All you needed was good shot alignment and I’d argue it was better than some of the more popular weapons in the game.
The most hyped up video on this channel, hope the next ranking doesn't take half a year to make 😂 Although let me suggest a zombies maps tournament, with every (or at least top 25 or so) map ever. Now, I disagree quite a lot with this ranking, but the community voted it so not arguing against it. Just gonna mention some guns which where out of this and I consider 100% belong here. Cod 4: Desert eagle mw2 OG: Famas, easily a top 5 gun in cod history, and at least one of the shotguns, spas 12, aa12... They where the most busted in OG cods, should have appeared mw3 OG: MK14 one of the best semi auto guns ever bo2: lsat might be the most busted lmg ever, specially with certain attachments Ghosts: Remington r5 and vector are the best on that game and top 15 guns in cod history AW: If we counted variants, this list would be enormously different BO3: THE FREAKING DRAKON! Should be at least in the top 4, taking the mw2 acr spot. Such a busted up weapon, 2 shot kill at any range, one in the head, silencer doesn't reduce damage, can equip red dot sight, crazy fire rate, no recoil... Dude. Also the argus, the m8 and the vmp were busted up
I definitely agree with the MW2 Famas being top 10. The MK14 was one of my most used guns in MW3. And the LSAT was stupidly good. Then the Remington was my personal favorite AR in Ghosts. The next tournament I have planned is the top 10 call of duty characters. I’m just not sure if I should include villains or only have it be only protagonists
@@AscendAR That sounds great too. I would include the villains because there is not enough great ones to make for an independent villains tournament. There would be plenty of filler on that one
Man the drakon was crazy in multiplayer and zombies. Absolutely busted gun for that game. Also the pre nerf HVK. That thing melted at all ranges with zero recoil.
Probably because he was nerfed, post nerf he wasn't that incredible anymore so people kinda put it to the side while the ACR and MP7 were everywhere for the entire duration of the game
I wanna mention the M8A7 from BO3 which was super OP in the beta and was still super consistent post launch The ICR7 from BO4 which was just a laser beam similar to the ACR
Everyone remember good old times with MW3 full premade lobby, ACR, silencer, grip, quickdraw perf. And maybe FMJ dual akimbo as side-arm. You were a raidboss.
DSR was the voted the 6th best gun in BO3 with the ballista at 5th. And I only took the top 4 from each game. (Also I think the DSR was better than the Ballista)
There are so many weapons that didn't make this list that were ridiculous. Not saying all these guns are top guns in COD history, but at least 6 guns could be replaced on this list. I'm inclined to believe that people that are younger, newer to COD, or have heard about a select few guns were the majority of votes. Nonetheless great video
bro how did the Commando get voted above the Famas edit: bro no way the Intervention got 5th smh people don’t understand the difference between better and iconic
Holy shit big community W. I honestly did not expect them to have any idea what they were talking about but #1 is actually correct hats off to the voters
MSMC was voted as a top 4 gun in BO2 but didn’t make it to the top 25, it should have in my opinion, and the DSR was voted the 6th best gun in BO2, Balista was 5th.
@@AscendARi feel like by how the criteria was, usually people will pick 1 of the two snipers (not both) for the top 4, so the votes were split between Balista and DSR. Im 100% sure that if they made it in the 4 at least one would have been in the top 25
This list is complete dog shit. We all love the commando, but to suggest it was better than the Famas is the most brain dead thing I've ever heard from a CoD perspective
A clone gun being number 5 is crazy. They reskinned the R700 (literally, majority of stats are identical) and all of a sudden people liked the least popular cod4 sniper lol.
While cod4’s M40A3 should have been there instead. I’d say it’s the most iconic CoD weapon of all time. Intervention was an uglier, worse version of it.
I played COD right after stopping power so at BlackOps. If I could make classes I would go with: 1) Aggressive Flanking: MP7 from MW3 2) Holding points/longer range: 48 Dredge Black Ops 3
If the M4A1 from MW2019 is on the list, then the 725 HAD to be on the list. It was a 1-shot kill at close to medium(ish) range and you didn't even need to ads as it was as accurate as a sniper with just hipfire. BO2's PDW (pre patch) should've been a honorable mention. It was ridiculously easy to use and could hang with the best weapons in that game.
Not to forget, the game breaking bug the MW 2019 AS VAL had at release was a pain in the ass. Getting clipped through multiple walls from across the map was infuriating.
I know the community wouldn’t have voted for this one but the Shieva from BO3 is absolutely GOAT’ed. It was always banned from competitive because of the one shot headshots with high caliber and fast TTK overall so long as you didn’t miss your shots.
Shieva was absolutely a top 25 weapon in CoD history. When you have an insane shot, you pretty much insta-kill people. Even without high caliber. The problem was that everybody with a bad shot (so most people) could turn it into the worst gun in the game. Missing your shots meant it had the slowest TTK in the game. That's probably why burst/single shot weapons are often not that popular. In het right hands they are often the best, but in weak hands they are the worst.
1. G11 greatest gun 2. M16 (BO1 version with just a suppressor and COD 4 with stopping power) 3. Galil with a suppressor only 4. Famas with no attachments. That’s it. G11 still runs the show!
I know it's a specific variation but I think a lot of people never got to know how stupid MW2's M16 with holographic was. For some reason the holo sight basically removed most of the recoil, making it an even easier one tap at close and mid ranges as well as when sniping with the gun.
The 74u from COD4, don't think it's super close but it was largely because of stopping power. The AK and the M16 in that game we're also pretty crazy, for similar reasons.
I won't argue the CoD4 M16 being so high because I use it still and it's the best burst gun in the history of the game... but for you guys that didn't play you truly cannot understand how much the MP40 was overpowered in WaW. In my opinion it is so by far and away the absolute best gun in any game when you take into the context the actual game it is in. I'm not even talking about just Call of Duty, I'm talking shooters as a whole. That includes the BR in Halo 3, or any other these other CoDs, shotguns in Gears of War etc. CoD WaW was unique in a lot of the map designs in a sense that the MP40 was good on every single map, so you never had to worry about long sights or being out in the open etc. It outclassed assault rifles in speed, machine guns in mobility, other subs in everything else. It had crazy damage output. Everyone used it as it was just that overpowered. Combined with it being one of the first guns you unlocked.. It's like not even close to me how far and away the MP40 should be number one here.
Not surprised at #1 I liked the Cordite from BO4, the PDW-57 from BO2, any MP7, any MP5. Of course the Bal is great, I’m amazed the IMR from AW doesn’t get more love. The Maverick from Ghosts was sweet, also the SC2010 from Ghosts. I’m amazed the FMG-9 from MW3 didn’t make the list. The VMP from both BO3 and BO4 was really good!
We use to make pre match agreements with the other team that no one would use the m16. That made the game super diverse and fun. That m16 though nearly broke the game. It was just too dominant.
Really amazed that the Kar98K from MW2019 didnt made it to the list, it was rare not to see it in a MP lobby and even stranger to not have a WZ class with it, even after the CW/VGRD integrations it was still beloved by most Another honorable mentions are the ARX 150 form AW, the MORS from the same game, the fmg9 from MW3, the 725 from MW2019, ballistic knife from Bo2 and m40a3 from MW
@@thecordlessplug. It was very funny to pull up the shorty 725 at someone else also using it and hear them rage, i was very close to get the obsidian but i got a life
The m13 from mw2019. I had this nasty setup on it with thermals, ads, extended mag, suppressor, and either fmj or sleight of hand. I just let decimated lobbies, and was a great gun for s&d paired with smokes
The reason the Intervention is better is because it had higher accuracy stats. If you quick scope you want the bullet to go as close to the middle as possible and the less accurate the weapon is the more it will go away from the middle. Nobody cares if you have more rounds, the first shot is what counts the most. Confused on now the ASM1 was so low. No variants - Bal and ASM were still the best two no doubt. Pros used nothing else(other than the sniper) and it was super satisfying. Ngl I'm surprised not more MW2 weapons made the list. People used everything in that game. Not including what was in the video - AA 12 and duel model 1887s were so fun and busted and you could use them as secondary's which is what a lot of people did. The Notorious G18s were absolutely cracked I don't think anything has replaced those two in cod history for akimbo pistols. The Famas in MW2 was probably the best burst Rifle out of all cods. If it wasn't for so many other good weapons people would have used it more, unlike the M16 in COD4. The Scar H imo is still the best scar. Did Giga damage with no recoil, looked and felt so good to use. Maybe I'm a little bit biased but these were my thoughts.
I'm surprised you didn't mention the bug with the MW2019 As-val on release, one of the attachments gave it infinite pierce, so you could shoot through walls all the way across the map.
Target finder lsat was crazy lol but I don’t remember the scar being that great. Had a lot of recoil from what I remember. Messed around with it here and there, and I remember dropping 20 in league play SnD with the scar on Meltdown. But tbh I think the opposing team was just a bunch of scrubs 😂
@@TheBrandedOne2003 Okay I went back and watched scar and m27 breakdown vids for blops2. I was correct - the scar was high recoil. You had to manually burst fire it often to hit your targets at medium to long range. The m27 was one of the lowest recoil weapons in the game. You could hold down the trigger all day and it would barely move.
@@schroederluck7984 the scar had some recoil yes but it was easy to control and the damage was insane If you go search for triple or quad nuclears you’ll notice that it’s either with the an94 or the scar I also had my fair amount of nuclears with the scar
The FAMAS in Black Ops 1 was a rape fountain. Maybe it was just me but I'm surprised the Black Ops 1 AK47 didn't make the list at all, I felt like I always did extremely well with that weapon back in the day.
The reason commando was ranked higher than famas: Aura
It is a cool gun! I had one friend who would only use the commando 😂
Galil is better than the comando does the same thing but with an extra 5 rounds in each mag
Famas was better than both of them, why do you think in pro play for black ops 1 it was the only weapon used 90% of the time. They even called the game Famas ops
Okay, CaseOh.
FAMAS in Bo1 was banned in european competitive play because 4 out of 4 players in every team in US used FAMAS only. Let that sink in…4 AR’s only…no smg’s. FAMAS was prohibitively OP for a reason

Pre patched models were insane

Not the unnerfed as Val and I hate mw
I was shocked it wasn’t 1st then I remembered its no pre versions allowed
I’d say arguably that almost every gun in mw2 is overpowered compared to other call of duty’s. The ttk with stopping power was unreal.

After the nerfs the BO1 Famas was outclassed by the AUG. It also had the ads speed slowed down to lmg levels.
Fun fact about the bal 27, the nerf only applied to 8th gen consoles and pc. On Xbox 360 and ps3 it was never nerfed, less recoil and faster fire rate
Interesting! I never knew that!
Man hearing that World at war music again makes me so nostalgic. God I miss that game. Its so unique amongst the older cods.
I concur, Fal should be way higher. It had zero recoil, with a fast trigger finger you can shoot it fast as hell and it had absurd damage. I remember Parasite and Clayster obliterating pro's with it before the ban
FAL-OSW was stupidly good even after it got a slight nerf!
I'm surprised the MP5 from MW1 didn't make it. Seemed like everyone was using that thing on PC.
The MP5 on Cod4 and MP40 from WAW to me were the most meta guns I can remember. If you were in a lobby that full of sweats, these were guns you would always see being used. I remember the MP40 being a one shot headshot with stopping power and you could have a drum mag. Also the cod4 MP5 with stopping power and no attachment was so OP. If I had to say what my favorite ever is though, the TAR from MW2 was a monster with FMJ
the man-o-war was SO fun man, such a satisfying gun to use all around
A bit slow to use but solid weapon otherwise.
The Lewis from WWII not even being mentioned is criminal, that gun was ridiculous. Also want to give a shoutout to the M-60 (I don’t remember) but the long from ghosts with a high fire rate that everyone used with a thermal
It was me 🤣 I was one of them who laid down at different locations in a map with thermal scope because they were soooooooo hugggggeee😅. Loved hitting that one vector guy across "whiteout or Stonehaven" running through the large map to reach my location 😂😂
The FAL OSW was not *immediately* banned in competitive bo2. It actually took several months and almost near the end of the BO2 life cycle where they finally gbanned it. The FAL also commonly killed in 3 since it only 2 shots in its initial range which only goes to about 14 meters. Select fire on FAL also got completely gutted after the nerf, so it’s irrelevant.
volkssturmgewehr in CoD WW2 would be a contender but it was nerfed pretty quickly so it didn't have the longevity like some of the other guns but pre-nerf it was basically a MW3 ACR with a WW2 skin
SCAR-H from BO2 was underrated for real. Actually so many guns in BO2 were, the guns in that game just felt right.
Good vid though 👍
I wouldn't say underrated it was probably top 3 most used guns in the game, more then the An94
@@dressrosacr7 I remember having a class just in case someone had an FAL in the lobby, probably one of the best guns in the game
After seeing both ACRs pop up and knowing #1 was left, I panicked then remembered your comment from the Cod4 AK, mentioning there was still another Cod4 gun… “M16, Cod4!” Whattya know? Lol good list my guy, pretty spot on, thanks for putting this all together
This was a lot of fun, became a daily ritual hopping on youtube just to vote!
Glad you enjoyed it! And thank you for voting on the polls! Without you voting this wouldn’t be possible
rarely anyone knows about this, but in cod ghost, the pre patch msbs was the most broken thing i’ve ever witnessed not counting glitches or exploits, there’s very little footage of it since they nerfed it so quickly, but godamn. in a game where the TTK was already so fast, that gun took it to a whole nother level. Cross map on stone haven people would get shredded in milliseconds
I used MSBS in all small maps, the 3 round burst was deadly. Adding quick draw to it meant a lot since hitting the 3 bullets first, could mean instant death for opponents 😅
Surprised the VMP from BO3/4 wasn’t on here. My favorite sub from CoD
VMP from BO4 was 26th so just missed the list
I can tell you are a veteran/very good Cod player with your opinions on the rankings, as well as the descriptions of the weapons. Extremely good video 👍
Honorable mention: top 5 gun imo the tar-21 from mw2
Fun weapon. A bit quirky. It was my cold blooded AR class to take out killstreaks with the stinger because it functioned well without stopping power.
I’m surprised the m40a1 wasn’t mentioned anywhere. Def one of the most revolutionary game mechanics with the scope being brought to the eye thus creating quick scoping. I only play on console so it was big for us at the time to be able to fluidly run around and be able to pop a shot off with a sniper in that way
It was voted a top 4 weapon in COD 4 and was in the tournament but it lost too many polls to make it in top 25
No desert Eagle from cod4mw is a crime. Hands down easily best secondary it was like full auto and two shot kill.
But solid list mostly.
I would listed RPK and Aug too. Scar and Remington were op too.
the cod4 deagle felt almost like the halo ce magnum with less ammo, that's how melty it was
dual FMG9s from MW3 and any akimbo shotgun from MW2 has deagles beat for best secondary of all time
I love how OP the ACR was in MW2, and were like nah we can make it stronger
6:05 the 1911 was in the most cods of course! And I think either the bal should win but if we’re not counting variants then it should be the fal osw
You could be right with 1911! And I think those are fair picks
The msmc not making the cut is crazy. Such a goat weapon for ranked. I don’t think the an94 should of even been on the list tbh
i don't comment often on youtube, but i been looking forward to this video! and i totally agree with you the FAMAS from BO1 is insane and easily the best AR in BO. but also, the mp40 is in my top 3 best guns it is insane!
I do agree with your number 1 pick. But i think that the Vmp (Bo3), is another weapon i think deserves the number 1 spot, because of the great firerate, Ammo size and damage.
I am surprised the RPD from MW2 was not in there. The RPD was sick.
Perhaps the best LMG in any cod ever. Problem is the competition in mw2 was so high that it just got lost in a sea of other overpowered guns in the poll. Spraying down lane in terminal spawn killing what that thing caused many ragequits.
Only weapon worth using bling perk on. Grip and FMJ made it too good
I remember the PDW-57 from BO2 was one of my favorites. That 50 round mag, open iron sights, and low recoil was great.
Don’t care what anyone says, the MK14 from MW3 was super underrated. From most if not all distances it was a two shot upper body and the fire cap was super high. All you needed was good shot alignment and I’d argue it was better than some of the more popular weapons in the game.
I agree that MK14 was incredible! It was one of my most used weapons in MW3
Yep. Should’ve got top 10 easily, probably top 5
Was never used in comp for a reason. Theres just other much better guns
The most hyped up video on this channel, hope the next ranking doesn't take half a year to make 😂
Although let me suggest a zombies maps tournament, with every (or at least top 25 or so) map ever.
Now, I disagree quite a lot with this ranking, but the community voted it so not arguing against it. Just gonna mention some guns which where out of this and I consider 100% belong here.
Cod 4: Desert eagle
mw2 OG: Famas, easily a top 5 gun in cod history, and at least one of the shotguns, spas 12, aa12... They where the most busted in OG cods, should have appeared
mw3 OG: MK14 one of the best semi auto guns ever
bo2: lsat might be the most busted lmg ever, specially with certain attachments
Ghosts: Remington r5 and vector are the best on that game and top 15 guns in cod history
AW: If we counted variants, this list would be enormously different
BO3: THE FREAKING DRAKON! Should be at least in the top 4, taking the mw2 acr spot. Such a busted up weapon, 2 shot kill at any range, one in the head, silencer doesn't reduce damage, can equip red dot sight, crazy fire rate, no recoil... Dude.
Also the argus, the m8 and the vmp were busted up
I definitely agree with the MW2 Famas being top 10. The MK14 was one of my most used guns in MW3. And the LSAT was stupidly good. Then the Remington was my personal favorite AR in Ghosts. The next tournament I have planned is the top 10 call of duty characters. I’m just not sure if I should include villains or only have it be only protagonists
@@AscendAR That sounds great too. I would include the villains because there is not enough great ones to make for an independent villains tournament. There would be plenty of filler on that one
Man the drakon was crazy in multiplayer and zombies. Absolutely busted gun for that game. Also the pre nerf HVK. That thing melted at all ranges with zero recoil.
I am really mad that not even one person in the comments mentioned the peacekeeper from bo2
Broo same, that was my favourite out of all the cods
I agree. But I think the reason it isn't on the list is because it was famously hated for being a pay to win gun. It was definitely OP
I hated the peacekeeper with all my soul. I was a dumb 10yo kid though
Micro MG 9MM from BO4 was an absolute joy. If you have it, try it out. You won’t be disappointed (especially paired with acoustic sensor)
it's a shame that Glock 18 from MW2 isn't mentioned
Akimbo for up close and personal encounters was alot of fun, scavenger for the ammo too
The MW3 Type 95 not even getting an honourable mention is crazy. That gun was ridiculous.
Probably because he was nerfed, post nerf he wasn't that incredible anymore so people kinda put it to the side while the ACR and MP7 were everywhere for the entire duration of the game
I wanna mention the M8A7 from BO3 which was super OP in the beta and was still super consistent post launch
The ICR7 from BO4 which was just a laser beam similar to the ACR
Everyone remember good old times with MW3 full premade lobby, ACR, silencer, grip, quickdraw perf. And maybe FMJ dual akimbo as side-arm. You were a raidboss.
Dsr not on the list is crazy to me
DSR was the voted the 6th best gun in BO3 with the ballista at 5th. And I only took the top 4 from each game. (Also I think the DSR was better than the Ballista)
The DMR 14 in cold war should be on this list. I've done some absolutely filthy things with that gun
Easily the best gun in the game if you add the fire rate and damage barrel, besides the Tec 9. It literally deletes headglitchers.
No KSG from Bo2 or Model akimbo from mw2?
The Renneti on the new MW3 (2023) is a beast of a handgun. The 3 burst actually takes out players at mid range in core and it's quick as hell
Spas-12 from mw2. It was an amazing 1 shot range with steady aim and so fun to play with
There are so many weapons that didn't make this list that were ridiculous. Not saying all these guns are top guns in COD history, but at least 6 guns could be replaced on this list. I'm inclined to believe that people that are younger, newer to COD, or have heard about a select few guns were the majority of votes. Nonetheless great video
bro how did the Commando get voted above the Famas
edit: bro no way the Intervention got 5th smh people don’t understand the difference between better and iconic
Bro I got no idea 😂
Holy shit big community W. I honestly did not expect them to have any idea what they were talking about but #1 is actually correct hats off to the voters
No msmc or dsr50 is a crime
MSMC was voted as a top 4 gun in BO2 but didn’t make it to the top 25, it should have in my opinion, and the DSR was voted the 6th best gun in BO2, Balista was 5th.
@@AscendARi feel like by how the criteria was, usually people will pick 1 of the two snipers (not both) for the top 4, so the votes were split between Balista and DSR. Im 100% sure that if they made it in the 4 at least one would have been in the top 25
The recency bias is crazy from these polls. Great video papa!
This list is complete dog shit. We all love the commando, but to suggest it was better than the Famas is the most brain dead thing I've ever heard from a CoD perspective
A clone gun being number 5 is crazy. They reskinned the R700 (literally, majority of stats are identical) and all of a sudden people liked the least popular cod4 sniper lol.
While cod4’s M40A3 should have been there instead. I’d say it’s the most iconic CoD weapon of all time. Intervention was an uglier, worse version of it.
@@mikidof Yeah, MW2 was the 3rd IW cod in a row where IW nerfed their bolt actions. M40A3 is certainly far better than the intervention.
@@115zombies935cod 4 didn’t have ads perk so quick scoping was less popular
@@lllLoko Acog improved ADS speeds for snipers in cod4
Warning! MW2019 Kar98 not being on the list......
The commando is ranked higher because it was the gun that required the highest level to unlock so people assumed it was the strongest gun.
Nothing will be more iconic than the model 1887
my personal favorite is the AK-47 from Cold War, it just felt so great to use
I played COD right after stopping power so at BlackOps. If I could make classes I would go with:
1) Aggressive Flanking: MP7 from MW3
2) Holding points/longer range: 48 Dredge Black Ops 3
If the M4A1 from MW2019 is on the list, then the 725 HAD to be on the list. It was a 1-shot kill at close to medium(ish) range and you didn't even need to ads as it was as accurate as a sniper with just hipfire.
BO2's PDW (pre patch) should've been a honorable mention. It was ridiculously easy to use and could hang with the best weapons in that game.
Fun Fact, the m4 in the CoD4 beta was literally a full auto m16. Zero idle sway and zero recoil. It was unreal.
That ak-74u ranking is criminal. People hating on cold war for no reason for sure had an impact on this… sad
There are guns in CW that should have been here. DMR, M16, Tec 9, and maybe the AK or Vargo.
Not to forget, the game breaking bug the MW 2019 AS VAL had at release was a pain in the ass. Getting clipped through multiple walls from across the map was infuriating.
I know the community wouldn’t have voted for this one but the Shieva from BO3 is absolutely GOAT’ed. It was always banned from competitive because of the one shot headshots with high caliber and fast TTK overall so long as you didn’t miss your shots.
The Shieva with high caliber was godly! But yeah it has too much of a skill gap to be voted for enough
Shieva was absolutely a top 25 weapon in CoD history. When you have an insane shot, you pretty much insta-kill people. Even without high caliber. The problem was that everybody with a bad shot (so most people) could turn it into the worst gun in the game. Missing your shots meant it had the slowest TTK in the game. That's probably why burst/single shot weapons are often not that popular. In het right hands they are often the best, but in weak hands they are the worst.
1. G11 greatest gun
2. M16 (BO1 version with just a suppressor and COD 4 with stopping power)
3. Galil with a suppressor only
4. Famas with no attachments. That’s it. G11 still runs the show!
I know it's a specific variation but I think a lot of people never got to know how stupid MW2's M16 with holographic was. For some reason the holo sight basically removed most of the recoil, making it an even easier one tap at close and mid ranges as well as when sniping with the gun.
The 74u from COD4, don't think it's super close but it was largely because of stopping power. The AK and the M16 in that game we're also pretty crazy, for similar reasons.
I won't argue the CoD4 M16 being so high because I use it still and it's the best burst gun in the history of the game... but for you guys that didn't play you truly cannot understand how much the MP40 was overpowered in WaW. In my opinion it is so by far and away the absolute best gun in any game when you take into the context the actual game it is in. I'm not even talking about just Call of Duty, I'm talking shooters as a whole. That includes the BR in Halo 3, or any other these other CoDs, shotguns in Gears of War etc. CoD WaW was unique in a lot of the map designs in a sense that the MP40 was good on every single map, so you never had to worry about long sights or being out in the open etc. It outclassed assault rifles in speed, machine guns in mobility, other subs in everything else. It had crazy damage output. Everyone used it as it was just that overpowered. Combined with it being one of the first guns you unlocked.. It's like not even close to me how far and away the MP40 should be number one here.
Every MW player's first friend - the Melt16
Not surprised at #1
I liked the Cordite from BO4, the PDW-57 from BO2, any MP7, any MP5.
Of course the Bal is great, I’m amazed the IMR from AW doesn’t get more love. The Maverick from Ghosts was sweet, also the SC2010 from Ghosts.
I’m amazed the FMG-9 from MW3 didn’t make the list.
The VMP from both BO3 and BO4 was really good!
Love the work that went into this video and man the nostalgia cause I've played cod since halfway through the og MW2.
We use to make pre match agreements with the other team that no one would use the m16. That made the game super diverse and fun. That m16 though nearly broke the game. It was just too dominant.
Surprised to not see the MW2 AUG, its my personal favorite cod weapon. Very satisfying to use and insanely strong
I would say #1 is original modern warfare 2 intervention. The only sniper anyone used and that sound was literally amazing
Really amazed that the Kar98K from MW2019 didnt made it to the list, it was rare not to see it in a MP lobby and even stranger to not have a WZ class with it, even after the CW/VGRD integrations it was still beloved by most
Another honorable mentions are the ARX 150 form AW, the MORS from the same game, the fmg9 from MW3, the 725 from MW2019, ballistic knife from Bo2 and m40a3 from MW
725 was so broken
@@thecordlessplug. It was very funny to pull up the shorty 725 at someone else also using it and hear them rage, i was very close to get the obsidian but i got a life
Wow I actually can’t believe the msmc from BO2 didn’t make the cut but at least he put it in the honorable mentions
The m13 from mw2019. I had this nasty setup on it with thermals, ads, extended mag, suppressor, and either fmj or sleight of hand. I just let decimated lobbies, and was a great gun for s&d paired with smokes
tec9 from CW not being here is crazy. Much better than lc10 or AKU and all I use is SMGs
The reason the Intervention is better is because it had higher accuracy stats. If you quick scope you want the bullet to go as close to the middle as possible and the less accurate the weapon is the more it will go away from the middle. Nobody cares if you have more rounds, the first shot is what counts the most.
Confused on now the ASM1 was so low. No variants - Bal and ASM were still the best two no doubt. Pros used nothing else(other than the sniper) and it was super satisfying.
Ngl I'm surprised not more MW2 weapons made the list. People used everything in that game. Not including what was in the video -
AA 12 and duel model 1887s were so fun and busted and you could use them as secondary's which is what a lot of people did.
The Notorious G18s were absolutely cracked I don't think anything has replaced those two in cod history for akimbo pistols.
The Famas in MW2 was probably the best burst Rifle out of all cods. If it wasn't for so many other good weapons people would have used it more, unlike the M16 in COD4.
The Scar H imo is still the best scar. Did Giga damage with no recoil, looked and felt so good to use.
Maybe I'm a little bit biased but these were my thoughts.
Folks really forgot about the spas-12 from mw2 2009. A secondary weapon that could 1shot kill hip fired from half way across the map
I genuinely didn’t think the m16 was going to be #1 cause I always think the newer cod players don’t understand how op it was.
I'm surprised you didn't mention the bug with the MW2019 As-val on release, one of the attachments gave it infinite pierce, so you could shoot through walls all the way across the map.
Scar H and lsat from bo2 should be on here too
They were probably the most used pub stomping guns along with the an94
Agreed
Target finder lsat was crazy lol but I don’t remember the scar being that great. Had a lot of recoil from what I remember. Messed around with it here and there, and I remember dropping 20 in league play SnD with the scar on Meltdown. But tbh I think the opposing team was just a bunch of scrubs 😂
@@schroederluck7984Bro the scar had the same recoil as the M27 and what do you mean💀 It was nonexistent
@@TheBrandedOne2003 Okay I went back and watched scar and m27 breakdown vids for blops2. I was correct - the scar was high recoil. You had to manually burst fire it often to hit your targets at medium to long range. The m27 was one of the lowest recoil weapons in the game. You could hold down the trigger all day and it would barely move.
@@schroederluck7984 the scar had some recoil yes but it was easy to control and the damage was insane
If you go search for triple or quad nuclears you’ll notice that it’s either with the an94 or the scar
I also had my fair amount of nuclears with the scar
The Remington from Ghosts, the Striker from Original MW3, or Scorpion from BO2 not being on here is criminal
The FAMAS in Black Ops 1 was a rape fountain. Maybe it was just me but I'm surprised the Black Ops 1 AK47 didn't make the list at all, I felt like I always did extremely well with that weapon back in the day.
