Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 not only launched with its story mode but also with its highly anticipated multiplayer mode. We present you the 3 best submachine guns in Season 3 with setup.
How do we arrive at our assessment? The basic assessment comes from our own experts here at MeinMMO as well as CoD specialists on YouTube and warzoneloadouts. We then subjected these assessments to tests in dozens of matches, which led us to the 3 top submachine guns.
Additionally, we refine our selection with our years of CoD expertise and also look at player trends. Moreover, we also consider the playability of the weapons and whether they can be handled easily.
Meta in CoD: MW3 – The best submachine guns with setup
Is there currently an overpowered weapon in MW3? The MCW is one of the deadliest rifles in the current MW3 meta. It fires like a laser and takes down your opponents in just a few shots.
Which are the best MW3 weapons? Assault rifles with low recoil are still the best choice for soldiers even in Modern Warfare 3.
With the right attachments, you can cover not only long distances but also excel in close combat, taking down opponents easily. This makes these rifles the top choice for players.
Paired with a submachine gun or a rocket launcher for taking down drones, no one can stop you anymore, ensuring your team remains invisible.
