The interesting thing with the M21 EBR is that it benefits so much from so many perks, but can't use them all at once. A bling M21 with silencer and ACOG turns it into basically a suppressed FAL without the need for stopping power, but using an ACOG would result in an inferior ADS time, which makes Sleight of Hand desirable. On the other hand the M21 tends to burn through ammo quickly, so Scavenger also good. Ideally, a person with a bling M21 would be killed by a guy with scavenger, who grabs some packs while using the gun, and then is killed by someone with sleight of hand, but by then it's more trouble than its worth. That being said, the M21 EBR with just the default scope's an interesting weapon: with stopping power it's essentially a WA2000 with more ammo capacity, faster reloads, and lower recoil.
I have to say, I’ve watched this series multiple times and have only just noticed those silky smooth transitions from normal gameplay to GWK. Bravo my friend, fantastic editing on top of an already thorough yet vastly entertaining guide!
Damn, I know that feeling. When I used to play Black ops 2, if turbine ever came up I would have to vote to skip because for whatever reason the game would freeze every fucking time turbine was loading. It used to piss me off so bad because if I joined a lobby that was already in session and it was on turbine, my PS3 would freeze up. It just happened out of nowhere one day too. I had played in turbine plenty of times, then one day it was loading up and just froze up. It took me awhile to realize it too. Anytime turbine was chosen it would just fucking freeze up for whatever reason, so joining lobbies started becoming a risk, lol. I would pray that the game wasn't already in session, but if it was I would pray it wasn't turbine. Luckily a lot of people hated that map so it would get voted against most times, but there were times I was in a sniper lobby and everyone would vote turbine and freeze my damn PS3, lol.
Silenced M21, Silenced Raffica, Marathon, Cold Blooded, Ninja in Wasteland running at the outskirts of the map. I've never tilted so many people as with that class. People are steaming after you kill them a couple of times.
I often used a SPAS-12 with the M21 EBR, as I used it on tight maps like Skidrow or Favela. I had a fast trigger finger, so using it like an FAL or a single shot gun was no problem for me.
Not many people use that combo anymore. As long as you don't mind a couple of hacked lobbies now and again mw2 is still good. I think I find four more trickshotters and hackers than I do noob tubers.
@Devonator16 You don't appear bright white with Cold Blooded - you'll be grey, like the surrounding area. You can still spot cold blooded users but they're not as apparent.
My Load Out Is The M21 EBR With Extended Mags And Acog, Along With Akimbo Desert Eagles And FMJ, My Perks I use Is Bling Pro, Cold-Blooded Pro And Ninja Pro
How many people use the heartbeat sensor when you play a game? People usually don't on SnD because they expect everyone to have Ninja Pro. That's why I don't use it... Yes I do focus on classes way too much.
The Mk14 is the exact same thing as the m14, it is just named a different way. Example: Mk14 ebr Mod 0, is the exact same gun as the m14 ebr mod 0, just named a different way.
Thermal silencer tmp with extended mag silencer smoke frag Run around with the tmp like an smg then find a place to camp Perks Marathon cold blooded commando
@smitened I'll probably play for fun for the first week or so, and get to grips with the weapons available as a whole. Will need some time to unlock perks etc.
Everybody used to run around with one man army with nube tubes. I used to run around with m21 one man army with claymores. This thing was good at close range and long! Hardcore playlists
I love using this weapon this personal challenge: Primary: M21 EBR w/ ACOG Scope & Silencer Secondary: Desert Eagle w/ *whatever you want* Lethal: Throwing Knife Tactical: Smoke Grenade Perk 1: Bling Pro Perk 2: Cold Blooded (Pro) Perk 3: Commando (Pro) Deathstreak: *whatever, but excluding Pain Killer* I have no idea why I typed this :3
if you want a more dmr like style with the m21, use this class: M21, acog, deagle akimbo or tac knife. throwing knife, concussion. Scavenger, stopping power, or any red perk, and steady aim. also, use UAV, pred missile, and ac130 or chopper gunner.
The first setup you have listed there (silencer, cold-blooded, etc) is immensely powerful in Hardcore game modes. I'd say its the best sniper for Hardcore modes, but thats just my own opinion...
You should do gameplay commentaries ( Featuring the weapon that was detailed ) in place of Bonus Footage for Black-Ops. While this is just my opinion, many can agree that your commentaries are the most magical thing ever to happen to anything ever. But I guess it's your choice, and it might come down to what ever is less work.
its so deadly in hardcore. Thanks for the tips man. I always wanna use the gun you examine in game when I play after watching your videos. I hope you know what I mean haha
The m21 EBR is very well suited to a counter-sniper role when silenced. If you're playing an objective based game mode and find your team being shut down by a sniper at long range, maneuvering to his flank and lining up a head shot puts a quick end to the issue.
Thank you very much XboxAhoy :)!!!! You did read my comment, and you talk about people shooting 2 hits quickly with the M21 EBR in 1:56, and deal to the low recoil and 2 hits is easy to connect.... Thanks for talking about what I say in the comment,, I'm very happy that you can say that out, you're best forever ;) Million thanks =)
Love this gun, Headshot machine, the silencer is the best attachment considering it lessens the recoil after the shot even more, and that means more chances of the two tap kill. Also got tiger camo one night legitly with this. Great gun and video.
When playing hard core, this becomes the best sniper rifle ever. It has less recoil, is perfect with a silencer, is quicker to aim, and is very fast firing. Even in soft core I find my self using this with FMJ and stopping all the time and racking up tons of kills.
rushing AR guys. then the spas, was a great close quarters weapon, especially for entering buildings. and with commando and lightweight, if you're caught in a reload or a weapon switch with the ebr, you can pull off a quick rush to a commando lunge, sprint around a corner and switch off. and going back to the ebr, med long range sprays are easy with this gun if you're unconfident about making the shot and you're seen also. I went 38-5 with it but it's all personal preference, just offering mine.
Basically an FAL with a proper scope.. I personally use it with a Silencer, Sleight of Hand Pro + Cold-Blooded. I find that the quick ADS with Sleight of Hand makes all the difference in normal range engagements (where you would otherwise use an AR) and the Silencer/Cold-Blooded arrangement means you live far longer, protected from the UAV spammers an' all...
The biggest joke is no one took out me in-game with this weapon but other sniper rifles like the Intervention or the Barret 50. Cal more likely did the trick against me.
Ah, it was fun every once in a while to mix it up and be a sneaky bastard with this one. The Bling perk offered quite a lot for a sneaky bastard class using this weapon as well. I recall tracking a couple enemies with the heartbeat sensor and taking out two in the back when they stopped for cover approaching a firefight, then a third coming around the corner to see who killed those two. Plink plink, plink plink, plink plink, haha. Another time three, passed right by me hiding in the grass running for the next Domination flag. Two taken out in the back, and the third in the chest turning around to see what happened to his mates. Then, moving to a different spot overlooking my last position, took out a couple more inevitably searching for me from the kill cam location. It didn't happen all the time, but the occasional moments like those were memorable.

This gun was such a joy to play with. Going to that little secret spot on high rise with thermal and tactical insertion was the most fun thing ever.

@DarkSide173 Yes. Almost complete, shouldn't be too much longer - I'm stymied during the week due to work (also: Halo Reach).
@jossiqua I'm inclined to agree. The one-hit kill of the M21 is quite satisfying though.
I often used a SPAS-12 with the M21 EBR, as I used it on tight maps like Skidrow or Favela. I had a fast trigger finger, so using it like an FAL or a single shot gun was no problem for me.

@timojattu It does increase the OHK potential, so it does have some benefit. It's probably one of the more effective weapons without SP, though.
My first nuke was this gun with a silencer. So under rated as a stealth build gun
Ebr Silencer heartbeat
G18 Silencer akimbo
Bling pro
Cold blooded pro
Ninja pro
My stealth class for S&D
I'd use ebr silencer thermal and g18 rapid fire with akimbo.
Steady Aim Pro instead of Ninja Pro.
Then you have my stealth class.
need the ninja for grass camping
You may not know this but crouch walking eliminates footstep noise. Nobody knows this, what am I saying?
it also prevents you from showing up on heartbeat censors
How many people use the heartbeat sensor when you play a game? People usually don't on SnD because they expect everyone to have Ninja Pro. That's why I don't use it... Yes I do focus on classes way too much.
the best bit about this weapon is that IW actually title it correctly in the single player modes and then call it the M21 in multiplayer
Not a sniper rifle, not an assault rifle, just a rifle.
@MrMichaelll123 I covered the RPD in May, and the Barrett in March.
7:04 Stu is tbagging this one dude lol
Dude, your voice is so chill for this kind of video.
The Mk14 is the exact same thing as the m14, it is just named a different way. Example: Mk14 ebr Mod 0, is the exact same gun as the m14 ebr mod 0, just named a different way.
The Mk14 is a Modern Variant of the m14.

6:15 sadly that's one reason why I quit mw2 because of killcams like that
@pubicservice Hauppauge HD PVR. Software recording, usually through FRAPS, is the best option for PC gameplay.
This gun actually appeared in battlefield 3 as well, my guess the government is making it if it is appearing often
@ftgrnoigs Sadly not.
If you use heart beat senser and fmj of thermal or silenced
i used to use the EBR with Acog and Silencer in S&D all the time. Brings back good memories.

@KIllTheCampers49 Yes. Astro A40s.
@DoMiNaToR2465 11 videos remain. Bit of a rush, but I reckon I can do it.
That's what the rifle is, and pretty much what XboxAhoy described to you throughout the entire video, good to know you at least gathered that.
@MrGamer2011 I like the WA2000.
XboxAhoy is spraying like crazy, you don't need more than 2 shots to kill in most cases.

This weapon is a beast on MW2.
Not sure. I've been using is as a sidearm for a while - I've got maybe 200-300 kills with it so far.
The m21 EBR is very well suited to a counter-sniper role when silenced. If you're playing an objective based game mode and find your team being shut down by a sniper at long range, maneuvering to his flank and lining up a head shot puts a quick end to the issue.
