When a silenced SMG can shoot through a dumpster w/o SP and still be lethal, there's a problem. And the biggest problem os your excuse. "everybody can us it" guess what that means? EVERYBODY will abuse it. That's the thing, if it's a slightly overpowered gun that someone gets for doing something challenging, there wouldn't be a problem. Once everybody starts sniping you with a shotgun, or shooting through any material like butter, it gets a little repetetive and annoying. Which is why alot of people lost hope in CoD after MW2. Treyarch is doing their best to change the reputation, and I hope their work pays off. They are a great company, the only problem is they still haven't gone "public" with zombies, one of their best selling points.
First off, if we are having a legit discussion PLEASE don't use exaggerations. You know damn well a shotgun isn't "sniping you"....The Spas has probably the furthest range, but it's not near the distance you're claiming. Also, why do you keep using this "shooting through dumpster" example?
Like I've said Noobtubes are very cheap and lame. I'm saying if there are so many "overpowered" guns then how is it such a huge issue? The problem is you don't like to get killed. Whether it's a Vector without stopping power, or a Model 1887 w/stopping power you probably don't like to die. That's basically the issue.
If every gun or most guns are so overpowered then wouldn't that technically make things even?????? I mean if they make every gun underpowered, wouldn't we be still equal? It's not like on W@W where the MP40 was arguably the most powerful gun on the game. On MW2, the Tar, AK-47, Scar, UMP, M16, FAMAS, FAL RPD, AUG HBAR are ALL super powerful in their own way.
I'd understand the "guns are overpowered" argument more if there were like 2 or 3 guns that were more powerful than the rest.
My point is whether I die from an F2000 w/o stopping power or an UMP w/stopping power, a death is a death. And in no way am I going to say, "oh well he had an UMP, that gun is overpowered".... Hell I went like 60-12 with a Mini Uzi before and got an "overpowered" message....There are issues with the game no doubt, but somethings people should just play the game, or find something else.
