Keeping with the theme of the best and worst starting guns and ending guns today
well, we're gonna keep with that theme cod is all about getting creative with your classes and experimenting with different guns, but
Naturally not all cod guns are created equal and sometimes in order to get a good gun
You have to grind with the really crappy ones and if the game gives you right out of the gate. What is up?
Everybody chaos here. Welcome to the cod History series
And today we're gonna go over my personal picks for 10 of the worst starting guns in cod
These are those guns that are unlocked right away, or at really really low levels that absolutely nobody used unless they had no other
Options do me a favor guys. Let me know what gun you're thinking of before we get into this list
Take a second drop a like let's hit fifteen hundred likes on this in the first 24 hours and here we go
the USP 45 in
Mw3, that's right
We're gonna kick off this list with a sidearm from modern warfare 3 that was designed to be the worst pistol in the game in
Well it fit that role perfectly the modern warfare 3 USP was intended to be this derpy little starting pistol
Thanks to its super low damage its high visual kick in a very low fire rate cap that prevented you from spamming it like you
Could other pistols in this game this game also or this gun also had the quickest range drop off of all the pistols in modern
Warfare 3 and was plain and simply the worst sidearm in the game. There's no debate
Please don't come in the comments with this one and say it was the best because it wasn't
the dragon in black ops 3 now
Sniping was nerfed pretty hard in bo3 due to the removal of aim assist and the addition of wall running and sustained thrust jumps
So hitting your shots with the controller was extremely difficult and well
that's what killed the dragon the dragon was a starting sniper rifle and it was a
Semi-automatic two-shot kill weapon with a one-shot kill to the head now
This is pretty standard in Call of Duty games
But the dragon's main downfalls were the very low fire rate cap that reduced how much you could spam it and like I said before
The fact that everyone was flying around and running on walls
Well that didn't help it if the fire rate cap was a little bit higher. Maybe it could have been pretty great
but unfortunately
it was just
Swallowed up on the create-a-class screen and people would skip right over it and use the locusts as soon as they unlocked it
The type 25 in black ops 2 now. I here we go. Here we go
I can already see the comments. I can see the people brewing it right now
now black ops 2 had great gun balance all things considered
that doesn't mean that there weren't guns that people skipped on one example was the hip marker machine known as the type 25 and I
Know there's a cult following for this I'm ready for it. This fully automatic assault rifle was the second one
You got a multiplayer and it did feature great iron sights and it had a pretty fast fire rate the damage per bullet though
Was extremely low it was outclassed by pretty much every other AR in the game pretty much every other AR in black ops 2 either
hit harder or fired more reliably than the type 25 leading to most people just leaving it there in favor of the mtar or the
M27 both of which were also unlocked pretty early in the progression system
Now you can definitely get work done with the type 25
But it was just so much easier to use one of the other ARS at your disposal
The links in advanced warfare now when you think of sniper rifles in advanced warfare
you probably think of the morphs and then maybe the Atlas 45 but most of you probably don't think of the Lynx it was a
semi-automatic sniper
Rifle that suffered from a lot of the same flaws that the dragon had in black ops 3 as it was intended to be this
Precision based weapon but in a game where everybody is flying around and super hard to track
well
It's it wasn't good
The links only dealt 70 damage per bullet and it had a maximum fire rate of 400 rounds per minute
You could only get a one shot killed in the head with this thing
And since this was a W and everybody was spamming boost jumps. Good luck
Unless you're pamaj pulling that off
Consistently most snipers tried the links for a little bit and then they dropped it and never thought about it again
Once they unlocked the Moors at level 8
The 84 in modern warfare 2 you heard me right the 84
This was a rocket launcher the first rocket launcher. You got mw2
It was unlocked at level 4 and also served as a worse launcher in the game
It was a hybrid between a lock-on and a free fire
But it does both of these things rather poorly it can lock on to enemy aircraft
But it does less damage than the other launchers when it actually connects
It could also free fire at enemy players, but it has a smaller blast radius than the RPG and the grenade launcher
So it's actually pretty difficult to kill somebody with this thing and then on top of all that you only got one
Reserved rocket when you spawned in with it
If you want to shoot out an air craft
You're way better off using the stinger or the javelin if you want to shoot enemy players
Well, you're way better off using a grenade launcher or an RPG
There was really no reason to ever use the 84 over any of the other explosive launchers in modern warfare 2
But then again, I'd much rather a launcher be underpowered than overpowered. So I'm not necessarily griping about this one. But I mean it sucked
speaking of sucking the scorpion in cod4
now one of the opening SMGs that you get in cod4
Multiplayer was the scorpion and it was complete trash unless you were playing hardcore in hardcore modes
It was actually pretty great
But in core where most of the player base spends their time, it was arguably the worst gun in the game. It featured virtually
No recoil, which was nice
But it also had very low damage in a very very very small mag and an extremely long reload time
this
presented the very
Frustrating scenario of either using stopping power to boost the damage or sleight of hand to boost the reload speed because you cannot take them
both at once in cod4 or
Alternatively, you could just use a better gun because literally all the SMGs in the game were better again in hardcore
The Scorpion was actually good but in core modes, it's one of the worst guns and cod4 hands down
The dragon off in black ops 1 now the dragon off is basically well, it's a meme in the Cod community
It's been in a whole bunch of Cod games and it seems no matter what game it is in it never actually is any good
Perhaps the worst version in my opinion was none other than the black ops 1 version
Anyway, it was actually the starting sniper rifle - in case you didn't already know sniping in black ops
1 was nerfed hard from previous Cod games in an attempt to prevent aggressive sniper play but then on top of that
most of the snipers and bo1 were pretty statistically underwhelming on their own the dragon off was a
semi-automatic sniper that dealt only
70 damage with damage multipliers on the upper chest and the head but if you threw a suppressor on it
it actually deleted the upper chest multiplier the bo1 dragon off also had
extremely awkward
handling due to the heavy sway in the very low center speed meaning you couldn't even spam it very well and since it would just
Be flopping all over the place and tried to aim down the sights. It wasn't usable
The dragon off is definitely the worst sniper and bo1 and since it's unlocked right out of the gate
well
That's why I got a spot on today's list and I would like see a call of duty in the future
Sometime that actually puts a dragon off in it makes it dominate
Ad number three the m9 and cod for the side arms and cod four really weren't anything special
But you could still get work done with them
Thanks to the very quick time to kill in the game now guns like the desert eagle
Those were powerful on their own and then the other pistols like the USP and the m1911
Well, they could get the job done
but the m9
it was at the bottom of the pile when it came to sidearms and it was also the first one you got it featured the
Biggest mag and the slowest recoil of all the pistols, which is good
but it also had the lowest damage of the most Awkward handling which is bad and in a game his fast pace is caught for
Those two things you well, he just don't really want those in a gun at any range further than point-blank
The m9 was useless and you may say well
Jimmy pistols aren't supposed to be used past point-blank range in cod4 and guess what he would be correct
But at the same time the other pistols in cod4 were at least capable of being used beyond point-blank range
The m9 was simply the bottom of the barrel and that's why I got the number three spot today
Olympia and black ops 1 oh
This useless double-barrel shotgun made its debut and bo1 and then was brought back as a DLC weapon in bo3
I'm assuming as a joke. Now. The Olympia doesn't have it doesn't have bad hard stats in practice
It completely fell apart though due to the inconsistent pellet spread the slow reload
The punishing range drop-off and the fact that it can only be fired twice before needing to be reloaded which was super slow
It also didn't get any bonus headshot damage and it's the only shotgun in the game
That doesn't get any kind of accuracy buff when aiming down the sides
In fact, it was actually the opposite when aiming down the sights with a shotgun in cod
He usually causes the pellet spread to tighten up
But with bo1 olympia well aiming down the sights actually caused your pellet spread to get slightly wider
Which possibly could have been a bug that was never fixed and to top it all off?
The Olympia is the only shotgun that you couldn't have any attachments on so you're stuck with the default stats
and there was no way to make it better and
That number one today. There's not a doubt in my mind the asp the asp in black ops
Nobody ever really expected much from the pistols and cod back in the day
But even by the extremely low standards people had for the pistols
The SP sucked this was the first pistol you got in black ops 1 multiplayer. It was bad
It only had seven rounds for the mag and it felt really inconsistent when you were firing it the range drop-off was also
Brutal and they just looked awkward. Why is the guy only holding it with one hand?
So even though it was a pistol and it wasn't supposed to be anything special the ASP defied
Expectations and ended up being one of the worst guns in Cod history and to me
It was deserving of the number one spot on today's list. So they either have it there you have it
Those are some of the worst starting guns you can get in coddling me know if you agree or disagree
What's a gun? That should have made it on this list?
It didn't but it was deserving and if you guys enjoyed take a second drop a like make sure you subscribe
