Like A.....
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Why are machine pistols actual in the game all it does is promote akimbo spraying or sniper advantage, it should be pistols only whats the point of overkill if snipers have SMG's anyway so why use overkill, should defently remove machine pistols...

Do a barrel roll!
Sounds like someone has been getting owned with Machine pistols.. What's the big problem? So you're telling me if someone is using a sniper they shouldn't be able to have somewhat more of an advantage towards someone who already has an advantage? (being that you're using a automatic rifle)

No. Just, no.
There is nothing wrong with akimbo because it has so many disadvantages.

1. You can't aim down sights, making them virtually useless at over 20-30ft.
2. You still start with the same amount of ammo, so when you reload, you only have enough ammo to refill one gun.
3. You cant expect everyone to be L33t QS champs, I understand, I feel you. It sucks when your going 1 on 1 with another sniper and they pull out a secondary, but nonetheless, everyone has they're own playstyle.
4. Overkill isn't a perk that too many people seriously use anyway. IMO its a campers perk, because if your rushing around, there's always another gun lying around. It is useful in some ways though, because you can have a shotgun on the side. I like having the riot shield on my back.

I think I've said enough.

1) True, but given the how small and cluttered these maps are, its not really a disadvantage.
2) False
3) You can do that with pistols? Snipers are only supposed to have an advantage at long range; with akimbo they have long range as well as CQC weapons
4) LOL what?

Machine pistols were a dumb addition, its basically a smg on switch; it's the main reason why no one uses overkill. Hell, I'm not sure why they even brought it back. Black Ops had it right, but too many people dick-ride IW to see the obvious.

Its cause the pistols have no variety, three of them I believe have the same stats (USP,P99, FIVE-SEVEN, I know some of them have less recoil, more accuracy ,etc). Also, the desert eagle is not that great anymore compared to the other 2 cods, it does have high damage, but crazy recoil followed by low ammo.

LOL^^^^^^^ the Deagle is better akimbo than single weld in mw3. The fmg's are a little crazy but they will never take them out.
desert eagle cod4= sniper
desert eagle mw2= smg
desert eagle mw3= throwing rock
