Drift0r, I probably speak for many when I say that I really appreciate the videos you have put together. Of all the COD informational videos, yours appear to be the most accurate and least biased (love the details you add), and I enjoy the fact that you don't pollute your channel with tons of "hey watch me play" videos to get to the real substance. I realize that many people do what you do for the monetization factor, but regardless if that is the case, you deserve all of the views and accolades. Rock on, Dave (PDXguitarfreak)
This is also to drift0r. to me if you want to become a better player try to get around being annoyed by iron-sight that shouldn't be a reason to use an optic in my opinion. If you want to use an optic because it can zoom or has thermal that's another story. Else it's just a waste of an attachment. For the rest always good to show the iron sights in videos.
Drif0r i think its so cool that you talk about reload cancel. I started doing this in black ops 1 and have been doing it ever since, but you are the only person ive heard talk about it! keep up the good work!
You driftOr are a legend, thankyou for all the tips I watched most of your in depth series for black ops 2 which helped me out alot and after purchasing ghosts 2-3 days ago your in depth helped me out where most players have already found what works for them, keep up the good work mate..
I definitely like the MTAR, it's definitely a love-hate relationship however, I did try out the muzzle brake with the red dot and it was significantly better! Great vid!
Well, in real life the mtar 21 (that's the real life version of it) is a carbine, one gun category that cod doesn't show. The mtar is the smaller version of Tar-21. What the M stands for is mini. So it's just a smaller version of an assault rifle.
It's a Mtar x95r the m stands for micro not mini. It's still a assault rifle it just happens to be a carbine sized assault rifle. Btw the reason it's the x95r is because it's chambered in 5.45x39mm same as the aks-74 and aks-74u (also a carbine sized assault rifle) also the tar in mtar stands for Tavor assault rifle.
Dear Infinity Ward, The M-Tar is not a submachine gun, neither is the Vepr. Also why does the Vector have muzzle climb? If you're going to put real life things into your games, please make them right. Thanks.
For those who wonder why the iron sights are bad: Pause the video on 4:15 The entire area from the guard shack on the left all the way to the green porta-potty on the right are totally obscured from view. Any enemy that appears in that area will see you but you won't see them. And then you're dead because in this game you die in the blink of an eye the second an enemy sees you. Every time you aim down the sights - you're handicapping a percentage of your vision. Now pause the video at 6:42 and see how much of the screen you can see with the red dot sight.
It's not an opinion with these sights it's a fact there bad - like you said your handicapping almost half your vision everytime you aim with this gun though a red dot fixes this easily
The Tavor is an Israeli developed weapon which replaces the m16 gradually in almost all of the IDF's combat units, it is an assault rifle in every aspect. The Tavor has a 46cm (approx 18 inches) barrel, where as the mTar (Micro tavor) is used as a special Israeli forces rifle\smg, more sutible for smg stile combat situations, and has a 33cm (approx 13 inches) barrel. I wish COD had the regular Tavor as it is one of the best new assault rifles out there, speaking from an experienced, real situation point of view..
Excellent video as always. I tried using the R5 with burst fire from your last video and got killed a lot with it. :) Always like trying out new things. Keep the videos coming. Cheers.
I'd say the Honey Badger is this games Peacekeeper with a silencer already attached. Not to mention the Peacekeeper was basically the same design as the Honey Badger that was chambered for the P90 round (5.7x28mm) instead of the 5.56x45mm NATO standard intermediate cartridge.
Hi drift0r. It's realy great that you allways say what the three shot kill range is with or without the muzzle break but personaly i allways run silencer on my guns andni don't realy know what guns are best with silencer. You should do all three 3 shot kill ranges in the future that would help us stealth players alot. Thx for all the great videos btw. :)
I started with Black Ops2. I was getting 20k/10d to 25-30k/10d with killstreaks consistently. I then purchased blackops. I was able to QUICKLY excel at BlackOps, and it quickly became a new favorite FPS. I finally bought Ghosts off of my friend for 20 bucks a couple months ago. Ghosts was by-far the hardest FPS to get used to, comparable only to CounterStrike and CounterStrike GO. (Both were favorite games of mine before my PC broke & before I got my Ps3. Ghost took some getting used to for sure. I was able to feel like a King of the Maps in BlackOps within a week. In Ghosts, it took me that long to even figure out which guns worked for my play style. This game is for meticulous head shotters, similar to CS games. Its more challenging but more rewarding.
I think there are more "pros" playing ghost than there are in BO1 + BO2. Seems like every lobby is full of clan members and people with Mics. Since more people have Mics, it's assumable that the players with Mics take their gaming seriously. They are probably "wealthier" than those still playing BO1+2 as well, which means they probably have internet access to educate themselves on gun stats and gameplay tips. I'd have to say that BO1 is a "fun" FPS. BlackOps2 is a competitive short range spam shooter, (which is great) and Ghost is the most competitive of the three, with many long range maps & the need to understand how each gun operates at medium and long ranges (and importantly, short range, which can be hard to dial in with the available scopes & guns) I'm definitely interested in seeing what the new map pack for Ghosts brings to the table. I would love for them to introduce short bullet spamming maps like those in ghost, I think they need at least 2-3 SR maps to break up the long range maps introduced in the debut game. I was disappointed to see that the DLC gun is actually a rifle rather than a new SMG. I think they are taking care of the people that enjoy competition more than they are caring for the people that like to turn on an FPS and just shoot at targets, for fun.
Don't waste your time - I was like you but the SMGs are a wastes of time in Ghosts - you will get outgunned time and time again by the Assault Rifles - use the AK12 with silencer and extended mags - Ready up, Quickdraw, Off The Grid, Focus, Hardline
***** That's not the issue here. I use the SMG class for its mobility. so what if I get outgunned; If i'm in the superior position it really doesn't matter. Playing game modes like Domination, Blitz, or Search require a fast class for many occasions. There are also a lot of times when objectives are in close spaces meaning that SMG's are best anyways. If I was just worried about killing quickly, I'd use my MSBULLSHIT class or just camp with dual IED's and Danger Close on an SC2010. Whats a better option is to just not waste my time with this game lol!
Drift0r, thanks a lot! I finally finished the Clueless op, played a game with my SC, and BAM! 20-4. That's like groundbreaking for me. Your advice Actually works!
I use suppressor rapid fire, and honestly, it is really good. Don't bother using it at long range, but at close range it absolutely melts people. I have the most success using it on maps like Tremor, Octane, Freight, Warhawk, Sovereign, Strikezone, and most of Overlord. Sleight of Hand is a must with this setup.
yea me to im not that good at cod but ive been getting 9 to 20 kills each game with this gun setup.for perks i use all the fast stuff like reload on the go,s.o.h,ready up,quick draw all those sort of perks + focus n gambler just depends on map size n shit.cheers ozi dabba 420
Just picked up this particular weapon, and I freakin' love it :D I run it with suppressor and extended mags, along with dead silence, marathon and quickdraw as a kind of standard. It's tons of fun to run around and just spray people who never hear me coming, and if I need to I can rock the iron sights to some degree. At a minimum I'm good with them in close quarters and can dance at range if I need to suppress a shooter to get closer. Glad you brought this to my attention :D it's going on one of my permanent builds.
Patrick Olson I'm actually with Drift0r on the tracker sights. They don't reduce recoil, they just bring the view back a little so it feels lesser. That and though the iron sights for it are nice, it's not worth taking up a whole attachment slot to run...especially if I really dislike how it focuses me in even more than the stock iron sights :/ I did run them for a bit, just to see, but from my point of view it's not really worth it.
I'm thinking a grip + vmr + silencer. Nice kill time with a clean short range optic, nice controllable recoil with a clean long range optic. And, with 810 rpm and a 4 shot kill to all ranges, I can silence the weapon without much penalty. With these giant maps I'll be 4 shoting pretty often anyways, even with muzzle brake, so I might as well silence.
I have to say that amplify and dead silence are the two most important perks in this game. With the lack of UAV in this game "soundwhoring" is more important than ever and its is more powerful than it ever has. Now of course a full surround sound headset is mandatory for this (no stereo, if it doesnt plug into the optical outlet on your xbox its not surround sound)
I believe the MTAR-X is the bullpup version of the MTAR assault rifle in Black Ops 2. I could be wrong, but a smaller weapon design can increase mobility and handling speeds if used in the correct hands
All the TAR variants are bullpup designs. The MTAR is the Micro Tavor Assault Rifle, making it a carbine. As far as I know the MTAR-X is just another variant of the MTAR.
believe it or not the mtar-x is just an mtar that has been refitted to fire 45 acp rounds (smg rounds) the bo2 mtar fires 57 mm rounds (assault rifle rounds)
The MTAR shoots the 5.56x45mm NATO standard mid size cartridge. The only guns I know that shoot the 5.7 round are the FN PS-90 and the FN FiveseveN. The fact that the MTAR-X shoots the .45 ACP round seems highly plausible to me as well as there are alot of MTAR variants in order to shoot various rounds.
Great review. Since the first time I used the gun I thought it was a better version of the peacekeeper. Completely accurate on it being the best overall smg in the class.
Actually if you google the name MTAR-X....it doesn't really exist. BUT it is kinda based on a SMG version of the MTAR-21. But it's still a SMG, it can be converted from a assault rifle into a SMG....so you're kinda wrong. The version we have in Ghosts is the SMG version pretty much
But if you look at the weapon Model, it's just an upgraded Israeli MTAR 21, which is an Assault Rifle made for close and far ranges. It does exist in real life, just under a different name. Kind of like the AK-74u from previous CoDs is the same thing as an AKS-74u. Also, the MTAR fires Assault Rifle Rounds
josephnicholasgallan what you mean is the MTAR 21 version which fires pistol-rounds, but if you look closly to the magazin that is used ingame, you see that it is a standard stanag-mag (the curved one for .223 Remington). So it is the standard MTAR with a shortened barrel, which means it is an assault-rifle.
Kasumi97 I don't know why cod likes to classify carbines as smg's like the Mtar X and the AK-74u. And then they put the M4A1 and Type 95 which are both carbines in the AR class. Make up your mind people!
The Iron Sights On The Mtar-X Is Amazing, Ive Gotten Many Kem Strikes With The Iron Sight Mtar, Just Because There Horrible To You, Dosent Mean Its Like That For Everyone
Honestly, i used to agree with you about the iron sights. Once you get used to them and learn how to use them, you will never use a sight on this weapon ever again.
I love the iron sights on the M-tar and have a 4 KD with it simply using silencer and grip or muzzle brake extended clip. Its sort of opinion whether or not it's bad
This gun is so overpowered. It's not fair how much of an advantage it gives the user, it seriously out classes all other smgs at pretty much every range cause it kills sooo fast.
That's if you look at just the stats but the fact that it kills me faster than anything else in the game is what is frustrating, that have never made an smgs that does what this one can. It's too accurate, a 4 shot kill at far? No smg has ever done that.
No it's not on the magazine it says 5.45x39mm meaning it's the MTAR-X95R an assault rifle there is a smg variant but the one in game is not that variant since the smg variant is chambered in 9mm.
this gun is a beast, i have it gold and i run it with muzzle brake and grip.. perks, ready up, focus,fast reload,unlimited sprint,strong arm...with C4 and no secondary..
I've pretty much watched all his videos now, and keep peeking back to see if there is new ones out about recent updates or tips and tricks on game play. This guy deserves to be successful on TH-cam which is a nice change of pace.. usually it's full of egotastic immature kids who just want to self-promote and be famous.
if they ever nerf this gun in any sort of way i will quit ghosts lol. its the perfect balance of damage comparable to the ARs with increased athletic ability :p
They should add a new assault rifle comparable to this gun that stays at 30-35 damage at further ranges since the sniper lines of sight are so dramatic in ghosts. Thats just an idea, but I think it'd be nice to have a all-in-one gun for this game considering the designs of the maps.
TheGamingGuy28 i disagree. the mtar has a larger mag capacity, longer range, less recoil, and most importantly higher rate of fire. since they both have the same headshot multipliers, in a perfect situation the mtar should almost always win
The MTAR-X is definitely my favorite gun. Although the iron sights are terrible i still do fine with muzzle brake and grip on it & maintain a 3.0 K/D. I use it almost every game in domination because it allows me to get long range kills & just run into a room or tight area and just poop on everyone.
Personally, I think you should put the silenced range of the weapon in the range section as well, possibly right under the muzzle brake range. Excellent video nonetheless.
ya,this was my favorite gun,but i find the sa-805 to be my current favorite.its 3-4 shot kill at short AND long ranges,and can drop people as fast as the MTAR can at close quarters, so yea
Eric Frye Having guns that kill as quick as ghosts in an Advanced movement game would be terrible. Since everyone can jump around etc you will always be getting melted from every angle even faster than before with absolutely zero time to react. That's probably why guns in AW, Bo3 and IW are weaker than BOTG CoDs, so that it is more possible to challenge the gunfights.
Truly the most usable SMG on all maps. (probably the only one that is usable on any map...well you'd be a little nuts to use it on Stonehaven but...) I like the rapid fire and red dot. The rapid fire makes it feel like the Skorpion from BO2 which killed SUPER FAST. I think that set up would not be great for people who use it on bigger, more open maps though due to the recoil. On Sovereign, Strikezone and Flooded though, I like to get up real close in my engagements and rapid fire just melts anyone before they have a chance because it's launched 4 rounds before most guns get 2 off and at closer ranges SMGs always have an advantage.
A little bit. :p It's true you can make it work but you have to work harder to make it happen IMO. I've used it on that map but using the USR or the MR28 with thermals is definitely easier than ducking and diving between rocks for 15 minutes. (for me at least)
I use the K7 on stonehaven, and managed a 8 kd. Wasn't that hard really. It isn't actually that effective to use ARs on that map since snipers are the more dominate choice there, and instead if you want full auto better to run SMG since you can get everywhere faster and destroy upclose, rather than trying to kill camping snipers with thermal scopes.
dragonmaster951753 I'm glad i'm not the only one getting tired of campers with those thermals, but lets be honest ...it's a lot better than target finders
I thought target finders were great rushing tools. Helped me out a lot in getting nuclears. If I died to a Target Finder camper, I always felt like they would have killed me even without it, since I was never hiding but rushing, so they made no difference to me, but they certainly helped me find people sitting in corners
Is it true that this gameplay within CoD Ghosts resembles that of Modern Warfare 2? [apart from the gigantic maps] I'm curious as to if I should buy this game for ps4 once the ps4 launches in Australia on friday
Blindfire yeah I guess thats true, but does anyone specifically think/acknowledge that this game is like mw2, because I loved that game and haven't been quite so into the distorted last few CoDs
***** okay cool I like the faster combat but I must say cod has never really been realistic though :P but still, there isnt even stopping power in this game so I find it odd that anyone has complained at the damage of the weapons
My thoughts on the mtar is either silencer or muzzle break. NO SIGHTS because smgs are not supposed to require too much peripheral vision if you play close to the enemy. Maybe either foregrip or rapid fire
Well just finished my "clueless" operation as recommended by Drift0r. So now that I'm supposed to be good, I'll equip that little gem with rds and MB and own everyone on PC.
i like the mtar x with silencer and either tracker sight, for sneaky play, and vmr for close quarters and longe range. i dont know why people dont like the vmr sight, its a red dot and an acog in the same attachment.
nah i find the iron sights fine, if you can force yourself to get used to it, you will be a beast with the availability of the extra attachments such as muzzle brake/silencer and foregrip.
Son Noctis it's not the reaction he's talking about. I've seen so many deaths of people where they get 180 panic knifed when someone is facing the opposite direction or not even looking at them.
I think the Mtar x is statistically the best smg plus it is my favorite smg this gun can beat those godly ARs at mid range and his low recoil good damage just an all around weapon for me
Drift0r, I probably speak for many when I say that I really appreciate the videos you have put together.

Agreed.
Agreed
yup
can't wait for the day when Drift0r reaches 1mil subs
KingRichard The day has finally arrived.
The sight of the gun is not bad at all but the god damn huge bullet drop dial blocks way to much vision.
that's a the sight and the reason it's bad.
The sights suck lmao, red dot is my best friend
Glad you put gameplay of the iron sight when you're talking about the iron sight, can you try and do this more often Drift0r?
This is also to drift0r. to me if you want to become a better player try to get around being annoyed by iron-sight that shouldn't be a reason to use an optic in my opinion. If you want to use an optic because it can zoom or has thermal that's another story. Else it's just a waste of an attachment. For the rest always good to show the iron sights in videos.
Ya, seriously. We need to be reminded/shown what these iron sights look like while you're talking.
Drif0r i think its so cool that you talk about reload cancel. I started doing this in black ops 1 and have been doing it ever since, but you are the only person ive heard talk about it! keep up the good work!
You driftOr are a legend, thankyou for all the tips I watched most of your in depth series for black ops 2 which helped me out alot and after purchasing ghosts 2-3 days ago your in depth helped me out where most players have already found what works for them, keep up the good work mate..

bigge1495 finally someone who plays cod that actually knows about the guns!
It's actually MICRO tavor assault rifle 21st century. (Just messing around)
GandalfGaming wow the tar 21 was in mw2
Dear Infinity Ward,
The M-Tar is not a submachine gun, neither is the Vepr. Also why does the Vector have muzzle climb? If you're going to put real life things into your games, please make them right.
Thanks.
I know they are carbines actually like the peacekeeper from cod bo2
Hey drift0r! You say the mtars a hybrid right ? Then whats its gas mileage?
Idiot
Someone has no sense of humor! HAARUMPH!
Well it's clearly not a fucking car dumbass
Well its good on fuel, and it goes very far. Rather car like.
Ba dumm chhhh
drifter has truly improved his gameplay , gentle nod of approval
Thanks for putting these vids. Good luck with your back. Speedy recovery.
Drift0r I watched your first black ops 2 in depths and it made me better at cod so thanks and keep it going

lil tunchi Good to see I'm not the only one who can use irib sights.
I think it keeps me focused on my target rather than getting me distracted from anything out of the circle.
I just got used to it
THEGEEKFACTOR trueeeee
I love the ironsight on MTAR
the quad was so real in the beginning, nice video

Yes the grip and rapid fire is incredible! Love it so much
Try using the Iron Sights while having the Tracker Sight equipped. It drastically reduces the recoil even without the Grip attachment.

Same!
same here. i used to hate it but i actually love it.
Yeah you get used to the iron sights when you use the iron sights a lot
I have never used anything on the mtar than grip and muzzle iron sights are great
I'm going back and forth between this and the vector, but I'm not sure. I want to see drift0r's video about the Vector to really compare the two.
Don't waste your time - I was like you but the SMGs are a wastes of time in Ghosts - you will get outgunned time and time again by the Assault Rifles - use the AK12 with silencer and extended mags - Ready up, Quickdraw, Off The Grid, Focus, Hardline

@@Darkstar_8473 this gun not so good on long range

If you run the tracker sight you can flip it down and get a really solid iron sight with less recoil than you normally would.

Soundwhoring was worse in CoD4 b/c the sounds were as loud as Amplify by default. But i agree 100% with your point
I use my tv and i hear people fine, point invalid
Great video Drifter...my choise as well for best SMG. Thanks for the different set ups!
Grip+rapid fire is beast on this gun, have been using for ages!!!
I believe the MTAR-X is the bullpup version of the MTAR assault rifle in Black Ops 2. I could be wrong, but a smaller weapon design can increase mobility and handling speeds if used in the correct hands

The MTAR shoots the 5.56x45mm NATO standard mid size cartridge. The only guns I know that shoot the 5.7 round are the FN PS-90 and the FN FiveseveN. The fact that the MTAR-X shoots the .45 ACP round seems highly plausible to me as well as there are alot of MTAR variants in order to shoot various rounds.
Love this and love your videos. Keep it up, Drift0r!
Thank You for showing gameplay with no opticals while reviewing the iron sights :)
This is everyone's fave smg and there is no reason to not feel that way
I like how Drift0r complains about the irons but in his gameplay he runs out of ammo owning so hard with iron-sights MTAR
Great review. Since the first time I used the gun I thought it was a better version of the peacekeeper. Completely accurate on it being the best overall smg in the class.
Fact: The MTAR X is actually an Assault Rifle! It, is the size of an SMG though and that's it is considered so in CoD Ghosts
Actually if you google the name MTAR-X....it doesn't really exist. BUT it is kinda based on a SMG version of the MTAR-21. But it's still a SMG, it can be converted from a assault rifle into a SMG....so you're kinda wrong. The version we have in Ghosts is the SMG version pretty much
But if you look at the weapon Model, it's just an upgraded Israeli MTAR 21, which is an Assault Rifle made for close and far ranges. It does exist in real life, just under a different name. Kind of like the AK-74u from previous CoDs is the same thing as an AKS-74u. Also, the MTAR fires Assault Rifle Rounds
josephnicholasgallan
what you mean is the MTAR 21 version which fires pistol-rounds, but if you look closly to the magazin that is used ingame, you see that it is a standard stanag-mag (the curved one for .223 Remington). So it is the standard MTAR with a shortened barrel, which means it is an assault-rifle.
Kasumi97 I don't know why cod likes to classify carbines as smg's like the Mtar X and the AK-74u. And then they put the M4A1 and Type 95 which are both carbines in the AR class. Make up your mind people!
That's a carbine
best gun on cod ghosts
I wouldn’t say it’s the best when there aren’t any attachments but when there are than definitely yes
The Iron Sights On The Mtar-X Is Amazing, Ive Gotten Many Kem Strikes With The Iron Sight Mtar, Just Because There Horrible To You, Dosent Mean Its Like That For Everyone
Excuse me, but you don't put a capital letter before every word. You put a capital letter at the beginning of a sentence, and for proper nouns.
Morbuzka Don`t gotta be a dick about it... JK
Welcome To The Internet
AHHAHAHA, Im Not Writing An Essay I Do What I Want
i have. all my smg's are gold. and the mtar iron sights work great for me
Honestly, i used to agree with you about the iron sights. Once you get used to them and learn how to use them, you will never use a sight on this weapon ever again.
Your gameplay looks so clear!
Love the iron sights on this smg!
I love the iron sights on the M-tar and have a 4 KD with it simply using silencer and grip or muzzle brake extended clip. Its sort of opinion whether or not it's bad
Driftor your videos are just great thx alot man for making them love watching them and they allow me to know how to counter and stomp on kids faces :)
has anyone else been waiting for this forever?
This gun is so overpowered. It's not fair how much of an advantage it gives the user, it seriously out classes all other smgs at pretty much every range cause it kills sooo fast.
How so?
That's if you look at just the stats but the fact that it kills me faster than anything else in the game is what is frustrating, that have never made an smgs that does what this one can. It's too accurate, a 4 shot kill at far? No smg has ever done that.
Well granted it's not an smg it's an assault rifle
The mtar is an smg biggie1495
No it's not on the magazine it says 5.45x39mm meaning it's the MTAR-X95R an assault rifle there is a smg variant but the one in game is not that variant since the smg variant is chambered in 9mm.
I love the variable zoom on it, too...I pretty much always use the silencer though
Awesome quad kill in the beginning!
Why does every one say that the mtar's iron sight is horrible but most people use the iron sights
ikr!? the iron sights i think are GREAT!
+Icarus975 nope
An iron sight is "bad" when it blocks your view alot. I don't think most people care about that though
I used to hate the irons when I started but now I really like them.
WHAT?? I love the iron sights in that gun!
this gun is a beast, i have it gold and i run it with muzzle brake and grip..
perks, ready up, focus,fast reload,unlimited sprint,strong arm...with C4 and no secondary..
I've pretty much watched all his videos now, and keep peeking back to see if there is new ones out about recent updates or tips and tricks on game play. This guy deserves to be successful on TH-cam which is a nice change of pace.. usually it's full of egotastic immature kids who just want to self-promote and be famous.
if they ever nerf this gun in any sort of way i will quit ghosts lol. its the perfect balance of damage comparable to the ARs with increased athletic ability :p
They should add a new assault rifle comparable to this gun that stays at 30-35 damage at further ranges since the sniper lines of sight are so dramatic in ghosts. Thats just an idea, but I think it'd be nice to have a all-in-one gun for this game considering the designs of the maps.
the vector has nearly the same stats on everything apart from a tiny bit less range and alot more damage
TheGamingGuy28 i disagree. the mtar has a larger mag capacity, longer range, less recoil, and most importantly higher rate of fire. since they both have the same headshot multipliers, in a perfect situation the mtar should almost always win
I highly doubt it as no one really think this gun is OP, just OU.
***** i never said it was op lol. they nerfed the ak-12 and was it op? (btw im pissed about that too lol, but the change is very subtle)
Tried your red-dot with muzzle break combo and it worked really well. And you're right the iron sights are horrible.
It's finally here!
When I first got this game I called it the matrix. lol
Me too
Thanks driftor for saying that the iron sights are really bad i thaught it was just me
I think the iron sights of this weapon are VERY GOOD.
I loved the peace keeper and I love the mtar x
The MTAR-X is definitely my favorite gun. Although the iron sights are terrible i still do fine with muzzle brake and grip on it & maintain a 3.0 K/D. I use it almost every game in domination because it allows me to get long range kills & just run into a room or tight area and just poop on everyone.
You should do a series on the dynamic map events and field order care packages!
Mtar-x class:perks:scavenger, quickdraw, focus, ready up and ping. attachments: red dot and extended mags. equipment: IED
Grip + Rapid Fire, great for Cranked.
The iron sights are awesome but I understand ur points
hi
Personally, I think you should put the silenced range of the weapon in the range section as well, possibly right under the muzzle brake range. Excellent video nonetheless.
I love of the Iron sights of the MTAR...i think they work just fine.
At the beginning: QUAAAAAD
Cant wait to see what the Vector does for minimum damage. If the Mtar does 25, the Vector should do more.
ya,this was my favorite gun,but i find the sa-805 to be my current favorite.its 3-4 shot kill at short AND long ranges,and can drop people as fast as the MTAR can at close quarters, so yea
all the ghosts guns would be so OP in AW and BO3...
ikr. most the guns in aw and bo3 are pea shooters
Thats why I'm excited for infinite warfare. Guns that kill :D
yea..
Eric Frye Having guns that kill as quick as ghosts in an Advanced movement game would be terrible. Since everyone can jump around etc you will always be getting melted from every angle even faster than before with absolutely zero time to react.
That's probably why guns in AW, Bo3 and IW are weaker than BOTG CoDs, so that it is more possible to challenge the gunfights.
Truly the most usable SMG on all maps. (probably the only one that is usable on any map...well you'd be a little nuts to use it on Stonehaven but...)
I like the rapid fire and red dot. The rapid fire makes it feel like the Skorpion from BO2 which killed SUPER FAST. I think that set up would not be great for people who use it on bigger, more open maps though due to the recoil. On Sovereign, Strikezone and Flooded though, I like to get up real close in my engagements and rapid fire just melts anyone before they have a chance because it's launched 4 rounds before most guns get 2 off and at closer ranges SMGs always have an advantage.
A little bit. :p It's true you can make it work but you have to work harder to make it happen IMO. I've used it on that map but using the USR or the MR28 with thermals is definitely easier than ducking and diving between rocks for 15 minutes. (for me at least)
I use the K7 on stonehaven, and managed a 8 kd. Wasn't that hard really. It isn't actually that effective to use ARs on that map since snipers are the more dominate choice there, and instead if you want full auto better to run SMG since you can get everywhere faster and destroy upclose, rather than trying to kill camping snipers with thermal scopes.
dragonmaster951753 I'm glad i'm not the only one getting tired of campers with those thermals, but lets be honest ...it's a lot better than target finders
I thought target finders were great rushing tools. Helped me out a lot in getting nuclears. If I died to a Target Finder camper, I always felt like they would have killed me even without it, since I was never hiding but rushing, so they made no difference to me, but they certainly helped me find people sitting in corners
dragonmaster951753 Tracker Sight is pretty much a slightly toned down Target Finder. So in other words, almost no difference really.
Love the mtarx, muzzlebreak and grip all the way!
Thanks for the knowledge, Driftor!
Is it true that this gameplay within CoD Ghosts resembles that of Modern Warfare 2? [apart from the gigantic maps] I'm curious as to if I should buy this game for ps4 once the ps4 launches in Australia on friday
No, rent it/borrow it before you buy it. It is not the same for everyone.
The maps arent gigantic, they are pretty average for a multiplayer game.
***** I guess you're right...
Blindfire yeah I guess thats true, but does anyone specifically think/acknowledge that this game is like mw2, because I loved that game and haven't been quite so into the distorted last few CoDs
***** okay cool I like the faster combat but I must say cod has never really been realistic though :P but still, there isnt even stopping power in this game so I find it odd that anyone has complained at the damage of the weapons
I agree mtar is really good use with suppressor and red dot attachments I usually do pretty good with that setup
The Ghosts UU Android link in the description is just a link to a Google Play Store search for unicorns... I feel violated driftor.
The vector is my favorite by far. Whenever I use the Mtar I want to like it but I never do good with it. I play very consistently with the vector.
Of the MMS guns. The M14 is my favorite. But i wish Iron sights were default and you could have it full auto like the original.
My thoughts on the mtar is either silencer or muzzle break. NO SIGHTS because smgs are not supposed to require too much peripheral vision if you play close to the enemy. Maybe either foregrip or rapid fire
Yes they are when they're close up weapons
Well just finished my "clueless" operation as recommended by Drift0r. So now that I'm supposed to be good, I'll equip that little gem with rds and MB and own everyone on PC.
I really don't have a huge problem with the iron sights, just run grip and muzzle break and you're good to go
The iron sights are amazing when you get use to it
I like the iron sights. I run MTAR x with muzzle brake and grip, it's like my favorite gun in the game
i like the mtar x with silencer and either tracker sight, for sneaky play, and vmr for close quarters and longe range. i dont know why people dont like the vmr sight, its a red dot and an acog in the same attachment.
I love the iron sights on this game
nah i find the iron sights fine, if you can force yourself to get used to it, you will be a beast with the availability of the extra attachments such as muzzle brake/silencer and foregrip.
These are my favorite iron sights.
So I'm curious to see a "ARX-160 vs. MTAR-X" video, being that they are the "hybrid" weapons, and hybrids of each other's classes as that.
Hell yea finally some smg great vid
They must patch panic knifing!
And knife lunging. Jesus fucking christ
Yes, lets patch a REACTION people have because its totally part of the game mechanics. Its just lunging.
I have never been knifed so much in any call of duty...
Son Noctis it's not the reaction he's talking about. I've seen so many deaths of people where they get 180 panic knifed when someone is facing the opposite direction or not even looking at them.
This is easily my favorite gun in the game.
I really like the iron sights, they work just fine for me.
I use mine with the silencer and extended mags. I then use almost all but one of the stealth perks. It works wonders.
I love the iron sight. Possibly my favorite
I think the Mtar x is statistically the best smg plus it is my favorite smg this gun can beat those godly ARs at mid range and his low recoil good damage just an all around weapon for me
Nice. Gna use it tonite. Been doing work with the fp6 and cbj. K7 is the work horse.
