Warzone Setup Guide Modern Warfare MP5

The Modern Warfare MP5 was considered OP for a long time and has already had to endure several nerfs. However, it is still an extremely solid weapon in Warzone. You can still shave with our Warzone MP5 setup.

The MP5 has been one of the most popular and most played weapons ever since the release of Modern Warfare. In the , it was pretty much the only weapon played, along with the M4A1. Among other things, it quickly fell into disrepute as an OP and suffered several nerfs, the biggest of which came with the – Season 4 Reloaded update in June 2020.

Despite the numerous nerfs, until the introduction of Black Ops Cold War in Warzone, you were killed by an MP5 probably over 50% of the time. Was the weapon possibly not generated strongly enough? No, in our opinion the nerfs definitely served their purpose and the MW MP5 is well balanced. Balance adjustments are not meant to make a weapon unplayable, but to balance it and adapt it to the other weapons in the category. The MP5 is particularly suitable as an all-rounder MP, as it is very easy to control and can be used at almost all distances. However, since it is still a submachine gun, we recommend using it as a secondary weapon for short to medium distances and an assault rifle or LMG as a primary weapon.

Warzone MW MP5 Setup
Our setup is mainly for Warzone, but works great in multiplayer as well. Please keep in mind that our setup for the MP5 is designed to dominate everything at short to medium ranges. For the long distances in Warzone you should definitely pack an assault rifle, a DMR or a sniper.

This setup increases range and gives you enough ammo to take out multiple armored enemies.

  • Barrel: Silencer (integrated, monolith)
  • Laser: 5mW laser
  • Underbarrel: Mercenary foregrip
  • Ammo: 45-round magazine
  • Grip: Patterned grip

The barrel gives us more range while having a built-in silencer to conceal us on the minimap. With the laser and mercenary foregrip, we increase accuracy when shooting from the hip, increase sprint-to-fire speed, and decrease recoil. The larger magazine also allows us to take out multiple enemies without having to reload, and the grip further increases our sprint-to-fire speed and shortens the time to lock on.

With the setup, you can react very quickly at short distances and hit even when firing from the hip. Up to medium distances you can shave everything with the MP5. At long distances, however, you should rather fight with an assault rifle. In multiplayer, the setup is especially effective if you like fast run-and-gun gameplay.

Try it out! We guarantee a lot of fun and kills!

CALL OF DUTY – and Tricks for Beginners

Get the upper hand with these tips and tricks for Call of Duty: Warzone. Call of Duty: Warzone is the new star in the Battle Royal sky. The Free2Play game, which was only launched at the beginning of March, set an incredible player record within a very short time. If you want to join the fray yourself, you can find useful tips and tricks for getting started in our beginner’s guide.

The Battle Royale mode in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare was a long time coming. Since March 10, CoD: Warzone has finally been available, and even as a free2play variant. So it’s no wonder that the multiplayer hit pulverized the player records of Apex Legends within a very short time. This is also due to the fact that Warzone does a few things differently compared to the well-known competition. If you’re planning to throw yourself into the fray and are still looking for a tip or two, you’ll definitely find what you’re looking for in this CoD: Warzone beginner’s guide.

Tip 1: What to consider before landing

Even during the approach sequence, you can see where the first circle is placed by opening the map, while the preferred landing position can be selected by pressing a button. These valuable seconds can be used to agree on a target together with your teammates.

Tip 2: The correct use of the parachute

As in any battle royale shooter, in CoD: Warzone it is important to land as quickly as possible after the jump and to be the first to grab the best weapons or items. This is achieved by opening the parachute after the jump and cutting it directly, which significantly increases the flight speed.

You can reopen and cut the parachute as many times as you like. This is especially useful for flying to destinations far from the flight path. Bonus tip: With the parachute cut, the character pulls out the pistol, which allows firing at enemies.

Tip 3: Life energy and armor

By default, each character in Warzone starts with two armor plates, the maximum being three bars. New plates can be found on the map, and having the most impeccable armor possible significantly increases your chances of victory. All three armor slots should always be filled, if possible (indicated by the blue HUD indicator at the bottom left).

If you take damage in battle, the self-healing known from the main game takes effect – there are no medikits in Warzone. If you are hit, you should simply take cover for a few seconds to regenerate your life energy.

Tip 4: Orders are worthwhile (some at least)

There are three different types of missions on the Verdansk map, marked with yellow tablet icons. Completing the missions rewards your team with additional money and bonus weapons that provide a decisive advantage in the fight for survival.

  • Bounty mission (crosshair icon): Kill a given target
  • Recon mission (flag icon): Secure and hold a specific area.
  • Loot mission (binocular icon): Loot three loot boxes one after the other.

The looting missions bring the biggest advantage, since the three targets are in the immediate vicinity and reward your own team with a good chunk of money as well as powerful guns.

Tip 5: Listen carefully

Connoisseurs of the Call of Duty series know anyway how important a good headset is when playing. Of course, this also applies to Warzone mode. Footsteps of enemies in the vicinity, gunfire in the distance, loot boxes in the immediate vicinity – all of this can be picked out and those who can locate and interpret these acoustic signals have an enormous advantage.

Blue loot boxes, for example, which entice you with additional money and powerful weapons, can be located by a buzzing soundthat gets louder the closer you get to the object of your desire.

But the reconnaissance missions are not to be sneezed at either: If the team succeeds in completing them, the area of the next circle is marked on the map. Thus, you learn in advance which areas will provide protection from the deadly gas.

Tip 6: What it’s worth spending money on

In the course of a round, you inevitably accumulate a considerable amount of money. But what should you spend it on anyway? Money is used in the Battle Royale shooter to request killstreaks or equipment drops at the store stations marked in green, or to bring back teammates who have died.

With a bit of luck, Killstreaks can also be found in loot boxes. Picking them up and using them is absolutely always recommended, as the advantage is enormous.

The in-game money can be invested in the following advantages at the buy stations, for example:

  • Additional armor plates ($ 1500)
  • Shield gun ($ 2000)
  • Cluster Strike ($ 3000)
  • Gas Mask ($ 3000)
  • Precision Air Strike ($ 3500)
  • UAV Drone ($ 4000)
  • Self-Resuscitation ($ 4500)
  • Squad resuscitation ($ 4500)
  • Ammo Box ($ 5000)
  • Equipment drop ($ 6000)

The UAV drone is the most rewarding, as it briefly reveals enemy positions in the area, as well as the equipment drop – the only way to use self-made loadouts and thus fully equipped weapons in Warzone.

Tip 7: What to look for in the Gulag

Warzone features a respawn system unique to the genre in the form of the Gulag. Players who have died in Verdansk are shipped to the prison, where they fight in a 1-vs-1 against another player to get back in. Those who lose can only be resurrected by their teammates from then on.

Other players who enter the gulag initially start as spectators on the upper tiers. Teammates can give instructions about the opponent’s position here, for example, but all players have the opportunity to influence the fight that is currently taking place – by throwing stones.

Just like a stun grenade, the stone doe’s one point of damage and is more suited to distracting the players below. However, with some skill, it can also be used to make kills, for example by triggering C4.

Since the lighting in the Gulag is not very good, enemies are correspondingly difficult to spot in the semi-dark. However, there is a simple trick to change that. CoD: Warzone allows you to spray spray logos on walls and other environments – as well as enemies – at the touch of a button. This can be turned into an advantage by making your opponent shine brightly with some yellow paint.
