A shotgun that didn't have magic disappearing bullets. Seriously, try hitting something that isn't within extended melee range (melee range with the magic teleporting stab perk). The bullets just vanish 10 ft from the barrel.

To everyone who wanted the M40A3 back:

I raise you a .50 McMillan Tac-50 (bolt action), which has the longest recorded kill of any sniper in combat [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McMillan_Tac-50#Deployment]. And hey, its got a box magazine, so don't have to shove bullets in one-by-one.
 

Wyes

This.

Makes shotguns absolutely useless, even as secondary weapons. Actually, that's another thing, why the hell were shotguns only available as secondaries?

I would've liked to have seen the XM8, but I can understand why it wasn't included. It would've been wonderful if the G36c had returned, or even the MG36, considering they decided to include a certain other 'LMG'...

the original AK-47 as Kalashnikov had intended, the original MP5, Dragunov, and maybe another bolt action sniper rifle of some sorts...

Somebody fire up Ghost Recon Summit Strike and play a terrorist hunt mission and then tell me if that game needs more guns?

Fuck that game was PERFECT because the balance of the weapons and they had an entire weapons family..
Grenadier? G-36 with a M320
Rifleman? G-36
Automatic MG-36

and they had SCAR family and XM8 family too.

If games today had the amount of guns and the quality behind the studio to do the guns justice..then I would buy the game.
Of course graphics fidelity helps too.

I wish MW2 had a seperate class of primary weapons called "Modular Weapons" that consisted of weapons that had different configurations, which could be unlocked as "attachments."

The M110 Sniper and the MP5 back would be nice,

and from the other people on this thread i reckon a crossbow would be Mcfucking awesome.

Being British when I heard that the SA80 was being set for use in OM I was genuinely pleased. but upon seeing that the SA80 had been mistaken for the L85 Light Support Weapon I was more than a little disappointed. now we still had the TAR 21 to work with when it came to Bullpup Assault Rifles, but I still feel a little hard done by that a genuinely British assault rifle wasn't included while basically Americas whole load out was included.
SA80 refers to the whole set of weapons (L85, L86, L22 & L98). You're thinking of the L85 (AKA SA80 Individual Weapon). The weapon ingame is the L86 LSW (with fictional drum magazine).

Anyway... AK-74/AK-74S/AK-74M, RPK-74 & PKM (you know, something acutally current issue with the Russian military rather than having them run around with Israeli rifles which still havent been fully rolled out in Israel or LMGs that went out of service 50 years ago).

Everything from CoD 4 ('cept the AKS-74U, that needed to be remodelled so it wasn't designed after a fictional airsoft gun...)

Full size Uzi, Sterling, Galil ARM/SAR/R4/R5, H&K G11...
cheers for clearing the whole sa80 thing up mate.

But dear God give the level designers a chance, a few guns yes but not most of the original loadout.

anyway this game is MODERN WARFARE 2 so I think a few more modern guns instead.

the xm8 would be a sound addition (I know about the whole not produced thing but it didn't stop a few other guns sneaking through though ;)

The crossbow would also be cool on the condition it had to be modern and folding to make it workable. but good idea!

The 84mm "Carl Gustav" Recoiless Rifle, the entire "C" series of rifles (Like the C6, C7, C8, et cetera). That would be pretty damn awesome.

I'm not quite sure why but I'd like some nostalgia in there, try the M1 Carbine from World at War or the MP40, Thompson etc. and especially a good old Mosin Nagant, now I would like to see that.

Other than that, I'd like an actual assault rifle version of the L86, the LMG is crap.

The XM8 is another one I'd like to see.

And if you want to be silly, just throw in a Redeemer, but make sure it's at the top of a very high cliff that takes you 5 minutes just to climb up - if you manage to get up there without getting shot in the arse or in the head by a sniper, then you deserve to ruin the whole level.

I think that they easily could have fit enough guns in the game so that every time you level'd you get something new. There are easily enough guns in use throughout the worlds militaries to accommodate for this, really the only problem i see is if there was some sort of issue with programming (which frankly i can't imagine, but i could be wrong)
Not so much, programming, more an issue with cluttering. It's similar to the reason that RPGs have default classes (most of the time) instead of allowing you to make your own stat and ability choices. It's so that each weapon has its own specific purpose and people recognise that each one is for this purpose.

I hope that makes sense.

how bout a FUCKING RUSSIAN ARMY USING FUCKING RUSSIAN GUNS?
IE:
RPK-74
a modern AK (carbine AN74, or AEK, or AN94 with 2round burst) instead of an aka-47 with tacticool RAILZ!!!! slapped on it
saiga 520K, that should definitely be in there, with proper range.
SVU
VSS
more advanced RPG that goes where you shoot it.
SA-7
...
*notices almost all of these guns are in BF:BC(2)*

play bad company:
can you dig a 100m headshot on moving sniper WITH A SEMI-AUTO SHOTGUN!??!
i can, and do.
i'm borderline-trolling, but also know that these are guns that the russian army should use in a modern war-based game, not friggin Israeli or Belgian guns, unless there's fighting in the middle east or areas where those guns would be common in the game. the fact that i merely state that these faults in MW2 don't exist in a 'rival game' isn't really trolling, partly because there is no real counter-argument to be made here, IW did drop the ball on opfor armaments.

G36C from Cod 4
AK-5 - Swedish army rifle
.600 Nitro Express - It could be a weapon you pull out when in Last stance (Because it's almost impossible to fire more than one bullet with this thing without breaking your arm.).
MP5 from Cod 4
More Bolt-Action snipers. We've only got Intervention, and I hate how that sniper sounds.
Edit: Oh yeah, I'd also like them to have the Wealther P99.

Also, why did they make the M79 (Thumper in MW2) unable to dual wield, when you can already use two shutguns from 1887?

Barrett REC7, or anything for that matter in a 6.8 SPC caliber, the M-14 SOCOM, 1911A1 .45 ACP.

Odd question, though. Why was the M-21 put in the game, but not the M-24 which replaced it 20 years ago, which is currently being phased out? And why is there only one point where you can carry the M-21 scopeless (just a glorified M-14)? Why is there a vast power difference between the scoped and scopeless versions? Why do video games make no real world sense?

EDIT: I agree that shotguns that weren't worthless beyond arm's reach would be nice. I go skeet shooting often, and I sure as hell can hit something downrange with one.

Very few FPSs have biological weapons. I'd like to see some gas grenades and stuff.
