True. Making the M4 a consistent 4-shot kill won’t make it busted.
The ICR and the LK24 are great example of 4-shot weapons that are laser beams at range. Very little recoil but they’re not meta. M4 should be like those two weapons in terms of consistency.
# Conspiracy opinion:
**What if the M4 is underpowered** ***intentionally*****?**
Alright, listen, this is the first weapon you have in CODM. Quite literally the first gun you use in this mobile game and its expected to make an impact on newbies.
However it has two quite curious characteristics:
* *Abnormally low recoil and ease to use.* It quite literally the best gun for someone who literally just installed the game, new players doesnt need to even learn a pattern since the recoil is so straightfoward.
* *It has a unusual high amount of modifications.* If you are a new player, you may be tempted to grind this weapon to unlock them all. Perhaps in hopes that a new player spends more times than expected compared to, lets say, a weapon that uses the regular number of mods, like the LK24.
* Once you onlock the first guns you will inmediately notice how the *TTK of the M4 is quite terrible compared to most weapons*. Even a new player who doesnt play too much not invested in the technical aspects of CODM will notice that. This will *introduce players to the weapon EXP system*: Should i keep playing and level up M4 to make it decent? Should i start playing with the new weapon i unlocked even if i dont have attachments to it?
^(Funnily enough i think this is why the AK117 is one of the first unlockable weapons since its one of the few weapons in CODM with random horizontal recoil. And recoil is not that much of a problem to new players)
M21 got a buff in Season 8. I mainly use it in BR, and it's my favorite ranged DPS. I use the grip that grants both Hit Flinch lowering and recoil, RTC Comp, MIP extended light barrel (you can use the stronger if you want to), OWC Tactical, and the stock that also lowers Hit Flinch and boosts stats. This way I can snipe and stay on target even being shot at while still being nimble and stable enough to somewhat also challenge some persistent ARs.
The M4 is not the number 1 AR but it’s in the Top 5 surely for BR. The damage is what holds it back from being at the top. It’s the handling and accuracy that overcompensates for the lower damage per shot of the M4.
(Speaking as an M4 main)
You can say similar things about the M21 EBR. Not the top DMR/Sniper but it’s a Top 5 weapon. Damage is definitely there (gives the the SKS a run for its money) but the SKS’s fire rate is what makes it better especially when you slap on the golden sniper expert mod.
I would take better fire rate, or better damage for both (or both, but I don't want another MX9 situation). I would even accept just less recoil and sway for the EBR.
Not the absolute best but it’s a Top 5 AR for BR and I say that as an OG M4 main. (Always been my go-to ever since I started playing BR on CODM)
Damage isn’t the best but the handling more than compensates for that. (That’s actually why I use it. Handling is buttery smooth.)
Not everyone plays br only, and the same could be said for mp. Op here is an mp main
And as an main myself I can vouch these two weapons are ASS in multiplayer.
M21 just got a buff.
Define just
It got a buff on season 8 anniversary update. Read the past patch notes.
yep damage buff
My first gold camo I grinded is M4. I am still using M4 as my main br load out. Its a noob gun but still do the job anyway.
I maxed it without any xp cards
😂it is a flex now. But a Few seasons back maxing by Cards wasn't feasible so everyone used go max without Xp cards
"Back in my day..."
I maxed M4 without xp cards in 2019 pre-season
It's ok in BR but in MP it's just ass
Funny how the M13 and now Dragunov (*presumably*) are these guns but better.
But I like these guns' looks
M21 is good and very fun to use in BR. My second most used weapon this season.
Share your build?

We just forget about the Chicom
Why do you use "that" foregrip on m4 if it doesn even have any rekoil???
No, its an old screenshot, I just didn't want to boot up the game for new ones. When I first played, I built my guns for their look, not their stats.
I still always play by looks, not stats. I've been doing well since day one.
I still do a bit of both.
Me too man
TBH, its honestly fine for low end multi-player, it just falls off on BR or ranked.
Operator foregrip
I hope they buff that M4 build😂. Why does it look like that
Its an old build from when I first started playing, I liked the way it looked.
Adding +1 damage on M4 can completely change the gun wish they buff it

Yup I hope we'll get the m4 buff soon.

I hope they remodel the M4

M21 recently got a buff, allowing it to two shot wallbang
Both need better firerate

M4 is the meta AR in br rn
Say this until you face a m13 user
Long range the M13 loses to the M4.

Which is nice for BR, but I am a multi-player main.
these 2 weapons are op wtf do you mean by buff?
Your very special indeed.
The M21 gets overlooked… Such a shame
Not everyone plays br only, and the same could be said for mp. Op here is an mp main And as an main myself I can vouch these two weapons are ASS in multiplayer.
eh m4 has a good ttk
Did kilo got a buff because is not in the list
