    Well difference of opinions which is fine, the rate of fire is easy to handle and if you play well enough the you won't have to worry about wasting your bullets.

    But also most everyone runs with the AUG because its currently the cool weapon, just as the vector was, and just as the mp5 was, there is the other mp5 I can't remember its actual name but I am sure that if a blue print of that one popped up then it would be coveted by players also.

    The other mp5 is the ST or do you mean the burst fire variant?

    Any weapon that isn't 204 or from a 204 blueprint starts off at a disadvantage in my opinion because the base damage range, at the higher tier is better.

    Cool weapon?

    How about a much better than average version was available for Phoenix.

    Until theres a 204 mp5 the aug is better

    I never really liked the mp5 anyways.

    Doesn't really matter either way, as I said its a matter of opinion, I've no issue with the AUG is it a very good gun and I have made sure to keep it, perhaps I just enjoy the navy mp5 better, that and I prefer the look of it also.

    The mp5 st is the one I was thinking of. I found one that was gear score 163, although it didn't have a base damage as good as my navy mp5 which was a gear score 182 it still preformed very well and the difference in damage was very small. I'd like to think that a higher tiered version of that gun could be better damage wise than the navy mp5 but I have yet to have a good enough drop to find out.

    Mp5 was for dps glitched players. The dps glitches are getting fixed as they are found. So legit players have to use the best thing available. Not the 60round cheaters dream. I would like to try the mp5 with strikers and a 3x scope though.

    I have a 182 mp5 navy and its base dps is 2k higher than the 204 vector in the BoO. But my mp5 does not have brutal. I can tell you, the 204 vec with brutal kills things noticably faster.

    some youtube guy basically mathed it out. The AUG is just better.

    It feels better and performs better. Which truthfully sucks as I LOVE the look fo the first wave vector.

    And people are not getting whats "cool" or they wouldnt look at an AUG as its ugly as sin. They are getting what performs the best. Thats how the game works. Otherwise you can try challanging Incusrions in lvl 5 greens and see if cool gets you far

    I run mp5 with my skill build ( not enough firearms to unlock the talents on the AUG). If i run my dps build i use the AUG ( higher base dmg). So its subjective what is the better weapon. It all depends on your build and playstyle.

    Currently running a AUG and a Vector both 163 GS

    However the AUG has Ferocious, Destructive and Brutal

    The Vector has Destructive, Deadly and Brutal

    While they're low in GS they have all 3 talents active
