I had no idea about the recoil increase, no wonder it feels so irritating trying to get a kill with stopping power loaded. Especially already stressful enough trying not to die and lose the mag the second after you activate it 👀
Stopping power is bugged to high hell. God knows how exactly they managed to screw it up. It's literally just "Damage times two" and that was just too much for the experienced game devs of Infinity Ward.
Ace: "Stopping power rounds, stopping power rounds, as well as stopping power rounds. Don't forget to stopping power round, and hit that stopping power rounds button for more stopping power rounds. Stopping power rounds."
I usually watch his videos but then i noticed a trend among certain youtubers as they use repetitive words to reach the 10+ min mark for monetization purposes. Case and point: 1:21 -1:28 perfectly explains how Stopping power works on mags, instead of moving on they spend an extra 10 seconds to explain simple math of how 30-10 = 20. their audience may be young but not simple math young. furthermore,
2:38-2:43 they explain how in AR and Smg's the effect of stopping power reduces bullets to kill by one less (-1) but then they literally explain with an example how if a wep needs 5 bullets , it now comes 4 bullets!! WOW holyshit I'm losing IQ repeating this as I type it. I can't finish the video for fear of having an aneurysm. I'm not telling them to reduce their videos below the holy Grail 10 minute mark as that would be stealing from their hard earned cash, but at the very least make their filler paragraphs less repetitive as their will lose out on people who'd rather google it than listen to a repetitive cycle of how 2-1 came to be 1 in many ... many ...many different, dissimilar unalike unlike nonidentical contrasting divergent disparate poles apart incompatible mismatched inconsistent forms
Im Joma I don’t prefer the magnum because of the low mag and RPM. Deagle gets 1 more bullet, and when every shot is a kill with both guns, it’s important to be able to shoot faster, as it directly effects how quickly you can deal with multiple enemies
It's so idiotic. I have brought it up in the feedback section on Reddit countless times telling them to just match the number of shots to kill to the upper chest if overpowered guns are what they are worried about, and they have yet to address it. Giving them feedback is 247% pointless.
Yeah imagine a world where the head shots are less fatal then torso shots. It's like when you get stopping power, the enemies move their brains into their stomach.
@@KiryokuYT I think a troll made death threats at someone and Infinity Ward used it as an excuse to ignore all of reddit (unless someone posts a funny meme or picture of them about to shoot a chicken)
I feel like stopping power and dead silence should be shown in killcams when you die. The TTK feels consistent at times, and it would really help me understand how I died so quickly or didn't hear an enemy coming.
Dillon C I mean you can see when they have dead silence on killcams cuz it has the like weird thing in the borders of the screen also they’re running like really fast lol
Great point! When I first heard about Stopping Power being in the game I said "come on, seriously? This is going to be so overused and so overpowered", but I think they balanced it nicely. I personally would remove them if I had the choice (even though I use them) due to the fact that it causes a huge variation in time to kill, and I REALLY wish you could see when you died to it in the kill cam, but there's no use in asking for anything with Infinity Ward. 😑
@@KiryokuYT I think the field upgrade is way too slow for Stopping Power. You have to wait a long time just to get 1 mag? Also, many times you die right after using it. I think it would be nice if you could carry the rounds to the next life (except in 1 life modes).
It's important to mention that in Warzone stopping power rounds deal damage through armor plates, so you deal damage to the plate and the players' health
I consider stopping power to be a godsend for the revolver and the deagle, because it makes them one shot kill weapons. Without it, the revolver sucks without snake shot, and is inconsistent with snake shot.
Any gun will be better with stopping power. You get 2 mags worth of SP rounds and if you use them, you have a better chance of dropping enemies quicker, especially if they all are using full-auto as it chows armour and health instantly.
Yea the AX50 and HDR with stopping power will one shot from the chest up in warzone. When I have my buddy with me I always use stopping power because he always has an ammunition box.
The AK always feels right, what are you talking about? It's by far the most satisfying gun to use. Except with the 545 conversion, it's even worse than regular 556 weps and 545 conversion is my default AK loadout
Yea man this is why I have been on this channel, cuz it's thies videos that I can relate to the most. I can always notice all the subtleties of the game, but to have you display it in color, just makes all the difference. Thanks man.
I think Stopping power rounds just deal the same dmg to armor but do 33% directly to your hp. Meaning that if you destroy 3 armor plates they immediately get downed.
They need to make cm challenges for launchers easier, it's way too hard to hit uav's with the rpg and streala. Also destroying ground equipment is way too hard
Ace, do a video on slugs on each of the shotguns. 1. I swear to god the hit detection on these are absolutely horrendous. 2. Way too many hitmarkers for some of them.
The stopping power reload is always a sleight of hand reload, so if you use tune up on gun with a big magazine and long reload time can you use stopping power rounds as a "6th" attach for both faster reloads and extra ammo if you don't want to waste a slot for sleight of hand or fully loaded
I had no idea that Stopping Power rounds increases recoil. That’s probably the reason why I’ve had strange problems with recoil inconsistencies on my weapons cause I’ve used Stopping Power a lot. I’ve been really puzzled my this. Thanks a lot for the info :) .
The X16 (Glock), 1911are amazing with stopping power in my experience, especially the glock becomes a 2 shot monster. It's decent on the M19 which can 2 shot to the neck and head and hard to use on the magnum and the deagle, they both have an increased one shot kill potential to the head and neck but it's simply too dificult to go for headshots all the time. It might be a placebo effect tho since i've never done any testing myself
Nice "drop zone" at the beginning! A quick 7 killstreak like it was nothing! I love stopping power it's my favorite field upgrade...unless I'm playing against campers.
Woah! The 357 magnum becomes a much more viable weapon with stopping power, the other pistols don’t need it but the slow fire rate of the 357 means that getting a one shot kill is important, at least until you have snapshot
Stopping power rounds are great with the Tune Up Perk since it's cuts down the time to get Stopping power rounds. I would recommend them on the Renetti. 1 burst.
I'd like to add that the crossbow will 1 tap anywhere on the body w/ sp bolts. This is super useful before you unlock the explosive and thermite bolts, though I can't speak for the venom bolts. You only get 3 bolts, but the one tap feels great with so because nothing tilts like getting a bolt hit market and getting hosed by ar and smg users.
Hey Ace! I think it's worth noting that stopping power only gives you a number of rounds equal to the weapons BASE magazine size, so extended mags will run out of it before your mag is empty
Another thing with Stopping Power is that if you activate it and load it into your weapon and die immediately. Then you won't have stopping power available when you respawn BUT for something like Dead Silence it doesn't go away when you die. For example, if you activate Dead Silence and die right after you just activate it then whenever you spawn again you will still have Dead Silence available to use again, since you died right after activation. Stopping Power will go away even if you didn't shoot one bullet and go to waste but not dead silence
A thing to remember with stopping power is that it gives you as many rounds as a default capacity weapon would get, I.E. 7 rounds for the 1911, even if you have extended magazines. This ALSO means you can get multiple reloads of stopping power on like an SKS, a Striker with hollowpoint magazines, or an M4 with SOCOM rounds. Especially the SOCOM rounds, you get THREE whole mags worth of that insane shit.
I use SP rounds on my HDR along with Tune Up when I do some Ground War games and I practice long distant shots for Warzone. It helps make the one shots more consistent on those across the map shots so it does have some benefits. It helped getting obsidian camo since it guarantees a kill at any range if you land your shot and wall bang kills at longer ranges.
I like stopping power on most ARs because of the built in slight of hand, great for those larger mags. It's also really good on the AK where your always better going for chest shots.
The real benefit of Stopping Power isn't the bullet damage, it's the fact you can use it to stretch your ammo reserves out (that extra magazine really helps on some weapons with low reserves) and that activating it is a fast reload which can come in handy. When I use stopping power I use it to partially replace Fully Loaded or Sleight of Hand to free up a mod slot. When I was levelling my 1911 I would use it with a riot shield on my back and stopping power and I managed to top frag with it once or twice... of course the enemy players weren't too good in those particular matches.
I love stopping power on the MK2 because I can now 1 shot at pretty much any range with it. Throws people off when I drop 3-4 enemies super quick at long range. I also like using stopping power on my Deagle in Shoothouse because it’s a 1 shot kill to the chest, and if you’re using the Enforcer barrel, you can get that one shot kill from pretty far away. Deagle feeds are SUPER easy to get with stopping power.
P90 shreds with Stopping Power. I always use stopping power because it gives me extra bullets. People tell me to use munitions box but I don’t like anything that helps the other team. Fennec also shreds with stopping power. :) Thanks for this awesome video and the amount of research you did. I mainly snipe in the game. I agree that people should not try to snipe on the legs, lol. But when you’re quick scoping and under pressure, stopping power will make it more likely to avoid hit markers.
I usually just use stopping power for the extra mag you get. I often run out of ammo after a while and with stopping power you won't have to waste an attachment/perk slot to get more
I always use the stopping powers rounds on the M13 and the last one is my favorite weapon. I have a question, can we have an episode about aiming stability ? I am curious about it
Aiming stability is just weapon swap. If you have low stability, weapon sway along with the weapon's recoil will make hitting longer range shots rather difficult. Most stability increasing attachments hamper close quarters stats like ADS speed or aim movement speed.
I stopped using them, and the dual field upgrade. I used to use the stopping power rounds and dead silence, but realized I would rather get dead silence more often instead of only getting stopping power a few times.
Between only 30 rounds (or less!), the long charge time, losing them entirely if you die, the increased recoil, and how inconsistent they are across guns, I can't see myself ever using Stopping Power Rounds (except maybe the M14).
I tried using stopping power on the EBR-14 after watching a video recommendation. Not sure if it was Driftor or someone else, but they gave the same information. And very rarely did I get a one shit kill with it that wasn't the already one shot headshots. Once in a while I'd get the upper torso one, but I couldn't be sure in those situations that they weren't already hurt. But fighting full health enemies, it seems like it never did this for me.
Ace what is the field upgrade you typically go for in Warzone / Multi ? Would you maybe do a video on that, pros and cons and in which scenarios you'd choose which field upgrades?
A couple of things not mentioned in the vid. 1. The extra recoil you get is bugged and stays on your gun even after you've used up all the Stopping Power Rounds. You have to either die or switch weapons & then switch back to get rid of the bugged recoil. 2. If you load Stopping Power into a gun & then pick up another gun, you lose all the SP rounds you had loaded into the gun you just dropped.
Man, Deagle with stopping power is op in core Anyway my opinion on Stop P. I hate when i load them and in that second i get sniped out of nowhere. There should be something to prevent this for exmple you didn't shoot a single bullet and died ? U respawn with them loaded already or at least with full meter to load them
For the HDR in Warzone it is only one shot in the head unless you have stopping power then you get a one shot in the chest and up so it is worth it for long range shots where hitting the head is hard or for moving targets where getting a headshot would be really hard.
I was hoping you'd touch on the snakeshot rounds with this field upgrade. I haven't tested numbers but the one shot kill range and overall consistency of the snakeshot is nearly pre-patch like. Hoping you see this!
to be honest, increasing the range on the mk2 sounds handy if you plan to use it as a dmr/sniper rifle. the fire rate in the end is an interesting one anyhow.
Another huge benefit with stopping power that you didn't mention is for snipers and marksman rifles it greatly increases bullet velocity. So on ground war it really helps to kill those extremely long rang campers.
Here’s a free tip for using stopping power. I like to first get a kill/spray most of my bullets in the mag then use the stopping power as a free one time sleight of hand reload. It helps for sure for securing higher killstreaks and overall a better use of them
I think if you quick scope, stooping power is a good choice on the ax50. Because while using a sniper in close quarters, it is more likely to hit a leg.
I was getting 1 shot kills from across the map on scrapyard with the Oden. Stopping power is definitely overpowered and underrated. Use the tune up and Restock perks with FMJ. Damn!
2 things, I did bug in warzone, I didn't get new 30rounds for my gun when using it. And second and more important which needs to be mentioned. If you drop (like taking a load out) the weapon, the rounds are gone.
So does that LMG disclaimer apply to the P90 and the Bizon as well? Only giving you 30 of your 50-60 stock ammo? Initially i knew it didn't give you a full LMG stock of rounds.. But weapons that say have 32 rounds.. or 50 that are not LMG i though it filled the whole clip. Especially the P90 since there are no ammo variants. BUT* i didn't look at the 20 bullet mark for example on the P90 to see if the ammo font turned white.
I just started testing it with the scar and im impressed at how deadly that gun can be with stopping power. Ive definitely used it with M13 while feeling a noticeable different in the time it takes to kill. Also the UZI has a faster TTK as well
I’d like to mention that the famas with stopping power is amazing if you can handle the recoil. Admittedly, it’s much easier on key board and mouse but it’s nice to have that one bullet cushion if you miss the third shot.
I tried stopping power on the MK2 for a couple games, paying close attention to it. No benefit at all at any usual range, went with something else (now Specialist for nearly everything).
Thank you for the PSA. IMHO, I hate using stopping power, every time I engage it, Dead! Then I feel like I gotta wait forever to use again. But still, great info. Thanks again
There is one thing that I’ve noticed while using stopping power, i think it adds bullet velocity, i used it on the kar and i started missing shots alot bc i’m not compensating correctly.
M4a1 with 458 socom rounds and stopping power is a beast at long ranges. It gives you 30 stopping power rounds with the mag size at only 10 and a two shot kill at what feels to be any range.
I play with the Bizon and it's really strong too i noticed you can have 2 clips of stopping power with the Ump and the 12 rounds burst it's pretty good
I don't know if they've changed this but with my personal experience stopping power on the kar98 and mk2 increase range and for the kar98 allows you to 1 shot any where on the body
I wonder if the balancing is different with PC and console because on PC I've never gotten a one shot upper chest kill with the ebr-14 and stopping power. I heard about that one shot kill potential and immediately jumped on the gun and started leveling it. I got it to max level and besides shooting weak enemies I've never gotten a non headshot one shot kill.
Refering to your gun guides (posting here for newness) you mention that some attachments have no noticeable affect on ads speeds, but if you combine them with any other attachments have you noticed an increase beyond what you'd expect with that result? I know that's a bit subjective and much harder to test for, but putting that out there anyway!
Totally forgot to include the Shotgun mention I had planned. Stopping power rounds give you a noticeably better 1 shot kill range as well as much better consistency so I would recommend them on the shotguns as well!
The .357 and the Deagle are pretty fun with SP btw
And handguns xD
What about pistols 😔
maybe you could cover it when you'll have gun guides for those weapons!
.357 and Deagle gain no benefit with Stopping Power unfortunately. Can you imagine the Snakeshot with SP?
Stopping power rounds: increase your damage against enemy players as well as the probability that enemies spawn behind you.

5:08 dear lord...gotta hang up the sticks after that one man
Hey Ace! I think it's worth noting that stopping power only gives you a number of rounds equal to the weapons BASE magazine size, so extended mags will run out of it before your mag is empty
2:47 High IQ. Tavorsk Exposed?
Exactly what I was thinking lol
Another thing with Stopping Power is that if you activate it and load it into your weapon and die immediately. Then you won't have stopping power available when you respawn BUT for something like Dead Silence it doesn't go away when you die.
For example, if you activate Dead Silence and die right after you just activate it then whenever you spawn again you will still have Dead Silence available to use again, since you died right after activation. Stopping Power will go away even if you didn't shoot one bullet and go to waste but not dead silence
What about affects on the caliber conversion attachements? .458 socom, 9mm, hollow points, etc. ???
A thing to remember with stopping power is that it gives you as many rounds as a default capacity weapon would get, I.E. 7 rounds for the 1911, even if you have extended magazines. This ALSO means you can get multiple reloads of stopping power on like an SKS, a Striker with hollowpoint magazines, or an M4 with SOCOM rounds. Especially the SOCOM rounds, you get THREE whole mags worth of that insane shit.
I use SP rounds on my HDR along with Tune Up when I do some Ground War games and I practice long distant shots for Warzone. It helps make the one shots more consistent on those across the map shots so it does have some benefits. It helped getting obsidian camo since it guarantees a kill at any range if you land your shot and wall bang kills at longer ranges.
I like stopping power on most ARs because of the built in slight of hand, great for those larger mags. It's also really good on the AK where your always better going for chest shots.
Best part of the video was learning a new route at 2:45 always informative Ace!
I wish there was an option for lmgs to add sp rounds every few rounds. Like every 5 shots the 6th is stopping power kind of like real life tracers
Hey Ace! The M4 rigged with .458 Socom will be a 1-shot upper torso, and you will be applied 30 rounds instead of 10. Hope this helps.
The real benefit of Stopping Power isn't the bullet damage, it's the fact you can use it to stretch your ammo reserves out (that extra magazine really helps on some weapons with low reserves) and that activating it is a fast reload which can come in handy. When I use stopping power I use it to partially replace Fully Loaded or Sleight of Hand to free up a mod slot.
When I was levelling my 1911 I would use it with a riot shield on my back and stopping power and I managed to top frag with it once or twice... of course the enemy players weren't too good in those particular matches.
I love stopping power on the MK2 because I can now 1 shot at pretty much any range with it. Throws people off when I drop 3-4 enemies super quick at long range. I also like using stopping power on my Deagle in Shoothouse because it’s a 1 shot kill to the chest, and if you’re using the Enforcer barrel, you can get that one shot kill from pretty far away. Deagle feeds are SUPER easy to get with stopping power.
P90 shreds with Stopping Power. I always use stopping power because it gives me extra bullets. People tell me to use munitions box but I don’t like anything that helps the other team. Fennec also shreds with stopping power. :)
Thanks for this awesome video and the amount of research you did. I mainly snipe in the game. I agree that people should not try to snipe on the legs, lol. But when you’re quick scoping and under pressure, stopping power will make it more likely to avoid hit markers.
I personally put the Famas on semi-auto when I apply SP. Is this fine?
I usually just use stopping power for the extra mag you get. I often run out of ammo after a while and with stopping power you won't have to waste an attachment/perk slot to get more
I always use the stopping powers rounds on the M13 and the last one is my favorite weapon. I have a question, can we have an episode about aiming stability ? I am curious about it
Aiming stability is just weapon swap. If you have low stability, weapon sway along with the weapon's recoil will make hitting longer range shots rather difficult. Most stability increasing attachments hamper close quarters stats like ADS speed or aim movement speed.
I stopped using them, and the dual field upgrade. I used to use the stopping power rounds and dead silence, but realized I would rather get dead silence more often instead of only getting stopping power a few times.
If it extends the one hit kill for the hdr down to the legs then it’s not horrible it’ll help if you don’t aim up enough on a long range shot
Between only 30 rounds (or less!), the long charge time, losing them entirely if you die, the increased recoil, and how inconsistent they are across guns, I can't see myself ever using Stopping Power Rounds (except maybe the M14).
I tried using stopping power on the EBR-14 after watching a video recommendation. Not sure if it was Driftor or someone else, but they gave the same information. And very rarely did I get a one shit kill with it that wasn't the already one shot headshots. Once in a while I'd get the upper torso one, but I couldn't be sure in those situations that they weren't already hurt. But fighting full health enemies, it seems like it never did this for me.
Ace what is the field upgrade you typically go for in Warzone / Multi ? Would you maybe do a video on that, pros and cons and in which scenarios you'd choose which field upgrades?
Always Dead Silence in all modes
A couple of things not mentioned in the vid. 1. The extra recoil you get is bugged and stays on your gun even after you've used up all the Stopping Power Rounds. You have to either die or switch weapons & then switch back to get rid of the bugged recoil. 2. If you load Stopping Power into a gun & then pick up another gun, you lose all the SP rounds you had loaded into the gun you just dropped.
Man, Deagle with stopping power is op in core
Anyway my opinion on Stop P. I hate when i load them and in that second i get sniped out of nowhere. There should be something to prevent this for exmple you didn't shoot a single bullet and died ? U respawn with them loaded already or at least with full meter to load them
For the HDR in Warzone it is only one shot in the head unless you have stopping power then you get a one shot in the chest and up so it is worth it for long range shots where hitting the head is hard or for moving targets where getting a headshot would be really hard.
I was hoping you'd touch on the snakeshot rounds with this field upgrade. I haven't tested numbers but the one shot kill range and overall consistency of the snakeshot is nearly pre-patch like. Hoping you see this!
You can also put stopping power "rounds" into the crossbow
to be honest, increasing the range on the mk2 sounds handy if you plan to use it as a dmr/sniper rifle. the fire rate in the end is an interesting one anyhow.
Another huge benefit with stopping power that you didn't mention is for snipers and marksman rifles it greatly increases bullet velocity. So on ground war it really helps to kill those extremely long rang campers.
Here’s a free tip for using stopping power. I like to first get a kill/spray most of my bullets in the mag then use the stopping power as a free one time sleight of hand reload. It helps for sure for securing higher killstreaks and overall a better use of them
I think if you quick scope, stooping power is a good choice on the ax50. Because while using a sniper in close quarters, it is more likely to hit a leg.
I was getting 1 shot kills from across the map on scrapyard with the Oden.
Stopping power is definitely overpowered and underrated.
Use the tune up and Restock perks with FMJ. Damn!
Glad there is this in depth about the perk. But it seems like tac and dead silence are much better. Due to their speed of recharge and practicality.
2 things, I did bug in warzone, I didn't get new 30rounds for my gun when using it.
And second and more important which needs to be mentioned. If you drop (like taking a load out) the weapon, the rounds are gone.
So does that LMG disclaimer apply to the P90 and the Bizon as well? Only giving you 30 of your 50-60 stock ammo? Initially i knew it didn't give you a full LMG stock of rounds.. But weapons that say have 32 rounds.. or 50 that are not LMG i though it filled the whole clip. Especially the P90 since there are no ammo variants. BUT* i didn't look at the 20 bullet mark for example on the P90 to see if the ammo font turned white.
I just started testing it with the scar and im impressed at how deadly that gun can be with stopping power. Ive definitely used it with M13 while feeling a noticeable different in the time it takes to kill. Also the UZI has a faster TTK as well
I’d like to mention that the famas with stopping power is amazing if you can handle the recoil. Admittedly, it’s much easier on key board and mouse but it’s nice to have that one bullet cushion if you miss the third shot.
I tried stopping power on the MK2 for a couple games, paying close attention to it. No benefit at all at any usual range, went with something else (now Specialist for nearly everything).
Was there any testing done on range with stopping power?
Maybe Stopping power rounds made the guns deal more damage at range than without
Thank you for the PSA. IMHO, I hate using stopping power, every time I engage it, Dead! Then I feel like I gotta wait forever to use again. But still, great info. Thanks again
There is one thing that I’ve noticed while using stopping power, i think it adds bullet velocity, i used it on the kar and i started missing shots alot bc i’m not compensating correctly.
M4a1 with 458 socom rounds and stopping power is a beast at long ranges. It gives you 30 stopping power rounds with the mag size at only 10 and a two shot kill at what feels to be any range.
If I use SP rounds, I will use it on the Model 680 shotgun, it gives it the damage range of the 725, but you now have more ammo.
I play with the Bizon and it's really strong too i noticed you can have 2 clips of stopping power with the Ump and the 12 rounds burst it's pretty good
I don't know if they've changed this but with my personal experience stopping power on the kar98 and mk2 increase range and for the kar98 allows you to 1 shot any where on the body
I wonder if the balancing is different with PC and console because on PC I've never gotten a one shot upper chest kill with the ebr-14 and stopping power. I heard about that one shot kill potential and immediately jumped on the gun and started leveling it. I got it to max level and besides shooting weak enemies I've never gotten a non headshot one shot kill.
Refering to your gun guides (posting here for newness) you mention that some attachments have no noticeable affect on ads speeds, but if you combine them with any other attachments have you noticed an increase beyond what you'd expect with that result? I know that's a bit subjective and much harder to test for, but putting that out there anyway!
Btw if you don’t have the challenge weapons you can try it with the load out drop in public match same with battle pass weapons
