If you’ve been playing Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War’s competitive multiplayer since the game came out on Friday, you’ve probably noticed one gun in particular pop up more than any other: the MP5.
This devastating full-auto submachine gun was widely considered the best weapon in the game, and outperformed other classes of guns in situations it really shouldn’t.
With the right attachments, the MP5 could drop an enemy quickly from the kind of distances Assault Rifles should excel in – and sometimes even farther – and this, coupled with its extremely low recoil, made it the face-melting machine of choice in Black Ops Cold War.
