While the Infinity Ward multiplayer game is already proving hugely popular on Steam, Battlenet, and consoles alike, players are finding building the best Modern Warfare 2 guns to be a taxing endeavour as they struggle to understand what attachments actually do.<\/p>\n<p>While previous entries Call of Duty Vanguard and Call of Duty Cold War both offered a full statistical breakdown for your weapons, MW2 does away with this system and simply offers a vague plus or minus to each stat when looking at attachment effects. You can get a bit more of an impression of how much difference each one makes by looking at the change in your bars \u2013 but an overcomplication of the terminology makes even that difficult to parse.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhy is there now recoil control, recoil smoothness, recoil stabilisation, recoil steadiness, vertical recoil control, and horizontal recoil control,\u201d asks one user on the MW2 Reddit, \u201cCan we convolute it any more? This is absolutely unnecessary, and just tries to lead to an illusion of complexity so they can add more attachments.\u201d Others in response point out that some of the terms are, in fact, synonyms. Seemingly all of them feed into an overall \u2018recoil control\u2019 bar, but that only serves to further muddy the numbers.<\/p>\n<p>Another player humorously points out that the Cronen Zero-P Optic scope, described as an \u2018Advanced 4x optic,\u2019 bizarrely offers players \u20185.0x magnification\u2019 among its benefits. They simply ask, \u201cSo which is it?\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-legion-featured-2022 wp-image-271752 lazyload\" title=\"modern-warfare-2-gunsmith-attachments-cronen-zero-p-optic-magnification-call-of-duty-mw2\" alt=\"Modern Warfare 2 gunsmith - the Cronen Zero-P Optic - description of it stating that it is an 'Advanced 4x optic' but with a 'Pro' listed below saying '5.0x magnification'\" width=\"550\" height=\"309\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamesn.com\/wp-content\/sites\/pcgamesn\/2022\/10\/modern-warfare-2-gunsmith-attachments-cronen-zero-p-optic-magnification-call-of-duty-mw2-550x309.jpg\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/p>\n<p>One commenter remarks that in 2019\u2019s Call of Duty Modern Warfare, \u2018recoil control\u2019 applies to vertical recoil, while \u2018stabilisation\u2019 refers to horizontal recoil. They say, \u201cI assume that\u2019s the same now, but then why have vertical and horizontal control mentioned as well? And what does steadiness do? Visual recoil, if I had to guess, or maybe sway while firing?\u201d It\u2019s certainly a lot to try and comprehend.<\/p>\n<p>Personally, I\u2019ve really been enjoying my time with the Modern Warfare 2 multiplayer so far, but its gunsmith system is certainly the thing that has clicked with me least. There are so many attachments now, and with such a vague, convoluted blend of positives and negatives for each one, that I find it overwhelming to try and figure out what\u2019s \u2018best\u2019 to use.<\/p>\n<p>Fortunately, PCGamesN is full of people much more attuned to these systems than myself, and they\u2019ve got you covered on the best loadouts no matter which gun you favour. Be sure to check out our best loadouts for the MW2 M4, Lachmann-556, 556 Icarus, FSS Hurricane, FTAC Recon, and much more so you don\u2019t have to pore over all those numbers yourself.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve also got you covered on all the killstreaks, scorestreaks, and unlock tiers in our Modern Warfare 2 killstreaks guide. If you need an explainer for the new perk package system, check out our Modern Warfare 2 perks guide.
