How to Design Your Own Gun on Call of Duty 4

"Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare" features modern weaponry.

Released in fall 2007, "Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare" is the first in the first-person-shooting series to be based in modern times, bringing players out of familiar World War II environments and into the war-torn Middle East. The game features modernized weaponry as well. Gone are the weapons of previous games, replaced with contemporary weapons such as the Mini-Uzi and the Dragonov. Gamers also can unlock gun additions, building their own arsenals online.

Instructions

1. Choose your primary weapon category. This is the most important step. There are four types of primary weapons: assault rifles, which include the MP44 and G36C, are great for all-around offense. Powerful and solid in all major categories, they are great for beginners. Submachine guns are the next category, including guns such as the P90 and MP5; these are a good choice for fast-paced players. Light machine guns such as the M60E4, are good for specialized gamers who stay in one place (protecting a flag, for example) and don't reload much. Sniper rifles, encompassing such weapons as the M21 and R700. These are recommended for elite players who don't mind staying in one place and waiting to take the perfect shot. ,Experiment with the categories and pick one that best represents your style, then become very familiar with its ins and outs.

2. Unlock new weapons within your chosen category. The more you play online, the better the weapon you'll unlock. For example, if you've decided to work within the submachine category, you'll start with the MP5, but as you progress you'll unlock much more powerful guns, up to the P90. Upgraded weapons typically have larger clip sizes, higher rates of fire, and cause more damage.

3. Modify your weapon using add-ons. The add-on might help alleviate a weakness of your gameplay or enhance a strength. There are five add-ons. The red dot sight places a small red dot on the crosshair, making aiming easier, while the ACOG scope zooms in on action, allowing the player to get a bead on an opponent from across the map better. The grenade launcher gives the player the ability to fire 40mm grenades, turning him or her into a commando. The silencer pairs well with submachine guns, rendering the player invisible to enemy radars. Lastly, the grip can be attached to the powerful light machine guns to reduce their recoil. Once you find an add-on that works best, you've designed an ideal weapon.
