(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); I'm making this thread to see what guns you people think are overpowered in this game. Please remember THESE ARE ALL MATTERS OF OPINION! Please do not flame others for their opinions. Now basically I wanna know what gun you think is overpowered and why. You can either post what gun you think is or reply to someone on why it is not. Note that I'm not just talking about damage here people, I can also mean Rate of fire.

My votes

OP
MTAR21 - This gun is too strong for the fire rate. If they take it down another 5-7 points it would be fine.
M417 - Since it's mainly used as an aggressive sniper, meaning not with 7x, 8x, or 12x scopes, it needs a damage reduction and an accuracy increase. It is meant to be used as a medium range sniper and an ADS spread decrease paired with an hip fire spread increase would really highlight the main purpose of the gun.
93R - This is OP af. You kill someone in the blink of an eye. It's fine up cloes but it needs to have lowered damage and lower range.

UP (Underpowered)
AK-74M - This is I believe the weakest of all the ARs. It need to have less ADS spread.
AKS-74U - I got a feeling the Americans like their guns a little more than the Russians do as the American guns are OP and the Russian guns are UP. Anyway this gun is weak in general, it needs a rate of fire boost.

Please feel free to comment on what guns you think are OP or UP but realize you can be challenged on your reasons why they are, and remember NO FLAMING!!! I don't think the mods enjoy people b*tching at others, and ik I don't.

Please also take a look at this website. This website has the stats for all the BF3 guns. (and MW3 if u wanna use that) All of these values were pulled from the PC game files and are the same values as on console. Enjoy You must login or register to view this content.

I use much weapons, so I can enjoy the game playing with other guns I'm not a guy who looks at the K/D Ratio, but I get killed from many guys who have 50 or more service Stars from the weapons you listed in the Overpowered part. I agree with you in this list you made, but I think F2000 is overpowered too. I used it yesterday some time and killed many enemies without problems; even if I had 60% of health and the enemy shot me at this time.

M417 is my only problem. Fucking hate that gun, people running around with it with foregrip and holographic just spraying it, can't stand it.
The PKP isn't OP imo, it does have high recoil anyway.

The F2000 is ok. It got a damage buff in the last patch which it didn't need but it has such a high rate of fire that It can beat almost any assault rifle.
The PKP doesn't have that much recoil, especially if you use a foregrip with it.

I don't think the F2000 is overpowered. It used to way better than it is now. It's balanced now.

I think they made the FAMAS too underpowered.

The M417 is easily the best semi-auto recon weapon now, probably overpowered.

The M16A3 is easy to use and powerful, but it's been that way since the game came out. Could be considered OP.

I also think the M5K should have a 40 bullet magazine with extended mags instead of 30, so it's like the MP7 and PP2000.

MP7 changed since the last patch, do you think so? Because it kills people much faster than before.

OP = M16, 93R, Magnum, P90, F2000, AEK and M249. :p

UP = All guns other than the above. Haha, nah I'm not sure to be honest.

M16 is not OP, every other gun is based around the M16 its the core weapon and DICE makes changes to other weapons based on how they perform compared with the M16. I dont think there are many OP guns, the game is really balanced, its just getting used to what guns you like to use in what situations. Someone who uses the SCAR for close quarters is an idiot. BF isnt like COD where you can use any gun for any situation, minus the M16 because that's an all round good gun, but is not amazing at range like the SCAR and its not amazing in CQ like the AEK. Think about what type of situations your using the guns in before you call it OP.

Yea the MP7 feels like it got a damage buff. I took extd. mags off after to test it. I can kill much faster w/o them now rather than before it took me the whole mag.
The .44 Magnum isn't really OP. Its harder to use than every other pistol and idk if you ever shot a .44 but the recoil is a bitch, but that's because of the stopping power. I forgot to add this to the list at the start of the thread but the only single shot pistol that needs to be changed is the M1911 and M1911 TACT. They don't do near enough damage to compete with other pistols. A .45ACP round should kill someone in 4-5 shots. Not 5-7... If i take someones health down by 60% it still takes me 4 bullets to kill em.
The M16 isn't terribly OP, but it does too much damage at range. The damage drop of begins much later than any of the other assault rifles, excluding the G3A3.

UP= all bolt action snipers should be a One Shot Kill ESPECIALLY the M98B!!!
