The UMP/AK74 are both overpowered and overused but atleast they require a basic aiming ability to achieve kills with. The tube on the other hand requires absolutely nothing, it's retarded.

Out of the SMG's prefer the MP5K myself.

MP40 with rapidfire & barrel drum.

MWHAHAHAHA

As for the vote, the Noontube, just point and kill.
Also, the ACR was pretty lethal in the right hands.

Mainly noobtube. I hate that thing, but I haven't been killed once by it in Black Ops (knock on wood) because no one seems to be using it... odd.

Honestly, though, I hate the LMG's with a passion. They are deadly, accurate, rapid-fire, and have a huge range advantage. They are, in a word, BULLSHIT. Treyarch/IW needs to nerf them good.

I play Black Ops. I don't even notice what guns I'm killed with because I'm too busy running around, owning people with my silenced SPAS-12. Shotguns are useless? Ok there, guy that just got nailed in the face with a silenced round after I weaved around your spray and pray.

The guns aren't OP. They're just overused. This always happens. Many people gravitate to one gun, then everyone else keeps getting killed by said gun. Then they think it is overpowered and begin to use it themselves. Now you have half the population using the "overpowered" guns. The other half using the hipster guns, like the Galil and snipers, get killed half the time by the "overpowered guns". Then they go complain on forums. And more people use the overpowered guns and on and on and on. It's a gigantic cycle of fail.

And it can continue. It would suck if everyone else started using shotguns.

The 74u is fucking stupid. It is Overpowered. I tried using the UMP in MW2 once, and felt like a right arsehole for it. I have never brought the AK74u as of yet in Blops, and don't intend to.

The worst thing is that it can actually be a Noobtube too...

They should just remove it. Way too much trouble than it's worth, because they'll either put it in as an SMG and it'll be OP, or as an AR and it'll be pointless because we already have the AK47.

Also, lol, just found this on the CoD Wiki page for Grenade Launcher:
"This atachement is the easiest to get kills, as it doesn't require almost no accuracy, being the most complained weapon ever in the Call of Duty games."

Wait, what?

I find this thread to be rather lame because the #1 problem of all Cod games has been campers

No my friend the true bane of CoD gamers are the ones that *****, whine and cry about the various weapons they can't beat. I've never understood the people who say the grenade launchers are overpowered, do you actually know what a grenade launcher is? What it fires? They aren't cotton balls coming out of the end of that tube but since you weren't hit directly in the face with it yet still died I'm guessing you think it's OP. If anything compared to their real life counterparts the "noobtubes" are drastically underpowered.

UMP45 and AK74u aren't that bad.

If you stack those SMG's to any assault rifle at more than a short distance they're going to loss.

The problem is the other SMG's are just weak.

Being shot is one thing, but a teleporting instant kill is freakin' lame.

The poll needs a knife option. If I could chane one thing about COD that would be it.

There's no option on the poll for "Call of Duty in general".
Hahahaha. You guys get it? This guy doesn't like CoD! That's so funny and fresh now!

Anyway, back on topic, I would have to say that the worst was actually the MP40 since there was no counter for it in the game, it had obscene power, rate of fire, mobility and accuracy with little recoil (and since lots of people used them there was no reason to worry about ammo).

Compared to every other weapon in the game the MP40 was like playing rock, paper, scissors and pulling out a death ray.

i find the lag plays a larger part in BS kills than the type of weapon used (though thats never stopped me yelling at the screen :)) i've lost count of the number of times i've put an entire AR clip into a guy for him to turn round and double tap me, or have him teleport 10 feet into me for a knife kill (the list is near damn endless) until every country has the same super speed connections this discussion will keep happening.

OT: not technically a gun but the claymores in Black ops are to powerful atm, you walk near one of those your dead - simple as, at least in MW2 you had a small chance of avoiding them.

Black Ops is a lot more balanced than the previous CoDs, but the AK74u is a bit...silly. I'm not sure if it's really overpowered or just overused. You can't credibly argue that if someone comes at you with an AK74u and you have a FAMAS you're at a disadvantage, not like with the MP40 in WaW where it was easily the best gun.

The Noobtube's easily the worst. You don't really have to aim with it, but very few people use them in Black Ops because you can't use it with Warlord, nor can you refill it, and Flak Jacket is guaranteed to save your life from them if you have full health and they don't get a direct impact.

this for sure. getting a knife kill should yield you honor and bragging rights, it should not be an easy thing to do, nor should it whiplash out of you like spiderweb out of spiderman, it should be in its own weapons slot, where you actually have to have the sucker out (ballistic knife kind of does this, however the lunges are kind of far and fast sometimes.)

OT: for actual balancing, i still hate the noobtubes, matched with the right perk combo those are the bane of my existence, between that and quickscopers i dont know which one made me quit COD faster than light.

The bane of COD players are people like you who do nothing but complain how they get smashed by cheap weapons. You are playing a game in which most of the community is probably under thirteen and not above being cheap to win. You need to just either play a different game with a better community, or get over it by doing something cheap back or getting better.
Its the internet, if there actually was a good community it would be this site.

MP40 is monumentally overpowered, the 74U is as well but not as much.

Personally I don't think either of the two OP guns of Black Ops (you know the ones...) are that much of a problem, the MP40 however is, and it should have been patched ASAP but it never was.

The most fucked up weapons of the series altogether are:
CoD 1 - PPSH-41
CoD 4 - M16, Claymore
CoD WaW - MP40, BB Mine
CoD MW2 - UMP45., M16, SCAR-H, Tavor-21, ACR, FAMAS, RPG-7, Semtex, Claymore, M203/GP-25 Launchers
CoD Black Ops - FAMAS, AK74U, Claymore

The MP40 had ridiculous recoil, it was only annoying from 4 feet away.

The UMP45 was definitely overpowered, but then again nothing in MW2 was good.

The AK74U marred the otherwise perfect gameplay of Black Ops, I'm tired of being sniped with it. But it could definitely be worse.

The Noobtube was/is ridiculous in Call of Duty. Aim the damn thing at a 90 degree angle and watch it get a multi-kill.

I was very disappointed when i bought black ops. I figured it would be a balanced, well rounded version of mw2, and i could not have been happier when i first started playing. when i learned the grenade launcher had been nerfed, i was even happier. I was practically jizzing myself when i learned there was no ump (the best thing to ever happen by far) , stopping power, or one many army as well. but then i played a second game, and quickly realized none of his matters, since the ak74u is blatantly overpowered. Im of the opinion that if its in the game, its fair. some weapons are better than others, but the ak74u is so ridiculously good in any situation, there is almost no reason to buy any gun besides it. It has awesome range with a grip (and arguably even without one), no speed penalty, good recoil, very good power, good magazine size, good accuracy, fast reloading, good hip fire accuracy, fast ads, and you unlock it at level 17, so everyone who's played for more a couple hours fucking has it. this gun is worse than the early 1887's in mw2, because you at least had to work your ass off to get to level 67. the ak74u isn't just imbalanced, it's a gamebreaker. most of the other guns in the game are at around the same level, so instead of everyone using different guns and classes according to their own preferences (the way the game was supposed to be) people just use the ak74u. i frequently play games where half the players are using this gun, and being rewarded for it. much as i hated the ump, it didn't render almost every other gun useless, so it didn't deserve a nerf, but i cant say this about the ak74u. hate away ak74u fans.

Try playing a Russian map in CoD1, the entire Russian team is equipped with the PPSH-41 with a 71 round drum and all the Germans are scavenging for them. Their are so many lying on the ground from the dead that you'll never run out of ammo.

This stuff was bilblical man, one time I litterally got killed by about 5 noob tubers at once when I walked into an open area...

Other guns, easy to catch the target, easy to kill them if they don't get you in direct line of sights.

Noob tubes? it's basically one of those systems where they sit and twirl in circles and shoot, but are pretty accurate. (I know this isn't actually the case, I one time wanted to find out why it was so effective, turns out it really isn't unless you spend a ton of time working on perfecting your technique.)

As such, I can't stand noob tubers, but, I stopped playing online multiplayer Xbox live around October, and don't own the other systems for CoD games, so... meh

How does it go.. i think it's something liek this.

Whatever you use to pwn me is cheap noob tactics/units/weapons
Whatever i use to pwn you is skillz

Haven't played black ops but in MW2, every other weapon/perk/etc is OP accoring to peoples whining, so i couldn't really care less.
