Some thing I love about the vector is that the gun looks so unique in its shape that to me, it looks pretty futuristic and the fire rate is insanely high.
i once used bling for vector and had rapid fire and akimbo on.... i never slept since then the nightmares i had and i was so scared of seeing my guy running with 2600 rpm of smg with steady aim on a map like rust the chills
Ump & Usp both fires .45acp, both can kill with only 2 shots close range w/ stopping power. Vector fires .45acp, needs 4 shots close range w/ stopping power. Logic is not present in Call of Duty.
+Besnik Nuro The Vector has a longer barrel length(140mm/5.5 in) whereas the H&K USP's barrel length is 112mm/4.4 in. Like I said, logic is not present.
If it fired 9mm instead of .45acp, it'd make more sense. Plus, the whole design of the Vector was to mitigate recoil/muzzle climb to make it easier to handle when fired full-auto in real life, but in the game, good luck staying on target past 8 meters or so.
I like how both the vector and the ump fire the same round, but one is a 2 shot kill up close with stopping power while the other takes at least 4 hits no matter what
This was one of my favorite guns with stopping power. It seems pretty underrated considering it already has pretty good accuracy an a very high rof, but when you add stopping power it is a MONSTER in my opinion.
@AQWUnity In realistic terms, yes (barrel length is slightly shorter on the Vector but for .45 ACP it shouldn't make a massive difference). In weapon balance terms, IW had to reduce damage to a certain extent.
@xGothimox It depends on your tactics. In FFA I tend to use Sleight of Hand as engagements are continuous and the reload speed is needed. Marathon is definitely best for a rush class to get behind the enemy more quickly. Pack a decent secondary (most do more damage than the Vector anyway!) or pick up a foe's weapon and you'll find you don't need Scavenger.
@UnforgivingEnd read some comments below where I responded another guy, did some research regarding that and the bullet comes out the muzzle at about the same speed if not more, also the bullet is the same for both guns (.45 acp) therefore the amount of gunpowder isn't the reason. The ump is limited in its firerate because of the high recoil of the bullet, the vector counters that recoil ingenuously, which leads to the higher firerate. Heat shouldn't be a problem unless you fire 100s of rounds
lol... lowest damage per shot of all weapons. And it is chambered in the same .45 auto that the UMP is.... So technically it should deal the same damage but just be a far superior weapon due to fire rate... gotta love CoD for those real life accuracies :P
Its all in the name of game balance. Having a gun that can kill in two shots that leave the chamber faster than any other is almost like having a knife with infinite range.
@quote55 According to some official stats, the ump45 has a muzzle velocity of about 285m/s, while the kriss super V has about 985 ft/s (~300m/s) Some makeshift research I know, still a gun is useless if the bullet can't penetrate the intended target, and if it penetrates, damage is done one way or another. And with that big of a projectile, even more so. Of course I respect your point tho, I have no idea about guns, we don't have them openly avaiable here in europe.
Ironic, isn't it? Giving it more realistic power would put it way OP, but nope... the UMP45 was the one to get its more realistic damage, and that was the one to be the strongest SMG. Another funny thing... as the CoD franchise progressed, with each entrance, the Vector kept getting stronger. In BOII, it competes with the MP7 very well since the Vector is more accurate despite having lower range. In Ghosts, it will defeat the MTAR-X if firepower is the biggest factor in a gunfight.
Damm, son, the world's most powerful weapon? Must've been why it replaced every other firearm in existence and why it's widely used across the world. You sound like an absolute expert on guns.
Vanpyro Gaming The prototype shot at 1500 rpm, but in the final model it was lowered to 1200. And the one in game IS based off of the prototype. If they were true to make the guns true to life, this thing would be super op, considering the very high rpm and the fact that it would deal the same damage as the ump. Scary thought. 😨😱😶
Damn right it is competitive! I got a 24/4 the other night in favela!!! One hell of a gun with silencer, stopping power, steady aim, bling, and rapid fire! nobody stands a chance short range. Vector ftw
oomerimunni mmmm I do recommend buying it for PC. but I recommend you install V2, which is a dedicated server program, since the base game doesn't have dedicated servers. much less hackers on V2 as well.
***** rapid fire and holographic are attachements and can only be applied with Bling perk. So if this guy has scavenger perk, he can only put one attachement.
Avoid long sight lines and stick to close quarters.....as he takes a guy out with a long shot. I love this weapon and have had much success "sniping" with it. Very accurate. My favorite SMG. Fall camo looks nice on it. Just hit 2500 kills with it.
For anyone still looking for a guide on this weapon, anything other than rapid fire isn't even remotely competitive on this gun, as it has one of the longest time to kill.
Cause he's awesome. In his Black Ops guide on the ASP, right after he said using dual wield/akimbo relies on luck rather than precision, he got the Pistol Perfectionist challenge (hit all shots in a clip with a pistol) with dual wield.
it's a very well used if your planning on dealing with people quickly, and the fast rate of fire makes up for the low damage, you will beat an enemy if they spot you first since you can take them down faster, i recommend scavenger for your blue perk,, any red perk and steady aim for the yellow perk
@TNAwrestlingfan1 NO need to get aggressive mate, just look at the point Balancing... one is one of the best weapons in the game... the other is one of the worst, without any compelling reason. A 3 hit kill up close for the vector would've been nice, and 2 hits for the ump is what makes it o.p.
I agree with you partly, as if was mostly hacked games and trickshooters who were annoying. For example, I had a go at one the other day and all i got back was a load of grief. However, when I get in decent lobbies, I think this along with COD4, is still the best COD game, because I like most of the maps and guns. Also, the titles and emblems are awesome!
@Skychael I used this SMG all the time when I played MW2. Was such a fun gun to use. It really is the ACR of SMGs. My favorite SMG, wish they woulda brought it back in MW3
According to Google define, it's a shoulder fired weapon with a grooved barrel (an example of a weapon with a non-grooved barrel would be a shotgun). This gives the bullet fired a spin which enhances greater accuracy.
I use the vector with the silencer and as a secondary the RPG with marathon, danger close and steady aim with C4 and smoke grenade. this is a very good rushing class that helps you sneak past enemies and then kill them with explosives.
I recently started using this setup: vector w/ rapid fire pp2000 w/ fmj scavenger pro cold blooded pro ninja pro this is GREAT on maps with mostly medium range fights, like bailout, storm, highrise, even afghan since it has so many narrow paths
These videos made me realize how fast the TTK was back then. 4 hit kills without stopping power on the Vector is considered "low damage". That's crazy.
@@m.a7105 Oof. I can't imagine how this game must've been on PC. Consoles could get away with it a bit because analog sticks, but with PC flick, it'd be like a bunch of insta-kill laser beams.
@AdaptoTurd A handgun would be a good choice. If your going to use a USP.45, use it with a silencer or tactical knife. For .44 Magnum, use it with Akimbo. For M9, Either FMJ or Akimbo. For Desert Eagle, use Tac. Knife. Which ever gun you perfer will suit you best with the Vector.
Anything can be changed, true. Doesn't mean they're gonna stay like that for very long. Most incorrect changes are probably undone within minutes. Once a person has made changes to a page, they will automatically end up following it. This allows someone following a certain page to see any changes made to it.
@GPSaBu "which is 4 hit kill at close range and 3 hit kill at long range, but it doesn't make any difference in most cases" -> this matters, the rest of your reply does not. In the video this gun is mocked by calling it an incompetetive weapon. In use, this gun is highly capable.
@XboxAhoy love your videos, man! here's a tip: you should mark the pros and cons for the weapons with + and - IMO it gives an overall good look to the bottom line at the end of a guide vid. keep up the good work, ahoy! :D
I loved this gun in MW2, thank god its coming back in Black Ops 2. My Loadout for it. Vector w/ Silencer (Or Extended Mags if unlocked) G18 w/ Akimbo Claymore or C4 Flash or Stun Grenade Scavenger Pro Stopping Power Pro Steady Aim Pro The sheer firerate on both guns are astounding. With Scavenger, you can fire with your heart's desire. It is extremely rare to run out of ammo with G18 Akimbo with Scavenger pro, it's around like 360+ reserve rounds. Have fun with these portable miniguns. :)
It realistically has the longest range of all AR's because of low recoil, but really has the least short to medium range potential out of any AR in game, having even the SMR out class it with a better hip fire radius and longer 2 hit kill range. I have measured the select fire FAL's time to kill, and believe me, it pales in comparison to any of the SMG's, the burst AR's, and the MTAR and Select fire AN. The only thing you gained w/ select fire was the ability to hold down the trigger.
I watched this, went and used the vector for my first time ever, getting a tactical nuke the first time i used it. Vector may look shit on paper, but it OWNS.
I agree i loved MW2 but when I go back and play it i have fun on it, but after awhile i realize the annoying things but it is all fun to go back and play a old game :)
@Pilot853 You forget, the magazine size also determines the ammo loadout. iirc, it's 1 mag in the chamber and 2-3 in reserve. That'd be 39-52 bullets, not 78. 1 Extended mag from an AR would have a comparable amount of ammo. So it mandates scavenger and extended mags, or you'll drop the gun after a couple gunfights or run out of ammo halfway through one.
I have almost 2k kills with the vector. I run it silenced with cold blooded. Even with very low damage I can fire from the hip and kill faster than i can get off two shots with the striker. Up close I usually come out on top over everything except vs the spas, akimbo g18's, and commando.I have had many 20+/1 games with this setup. It may not work with everyone, but for me it is my best short- mid range class.
@mikekevin90 The round itself doesn't mean how strong the damage are, it's jow fast the gun shoots. More speed means more damage. The speed can be adjusted by putting in more gunpowder into the shell, like the ump, this gives it more damage but the ump's design limits the firerate. The Vector can't have that much gunpowder since it would overheat the gun while firing full auto. there for the lower damage
3:08
"But you will need to burst fire to be effective."
*fires full auto across map*
He always contradicts his words with his gameplay
Rhys McCartney One of the many quirks we love about XboxAhoy
Like in his L96A1 video:
"Don't use it in close-quarters."
*gets noscope*
Joseph A. H. Just because you shouldn't, doesn't mean you can't.
he does that like 3 times in the whole video lol
45 acp and is the lowest damage smg in the game dafuq?
Rendijs Bertulis it would have been op but i mean they could have made it with the standard Glock mag with 20 bullets
Maybe it fires at a slower velocity, so it has higher mass, but less velocity.
yea but were not in battlefield so there isn't really alot of bullet velocity math in cod
+Rendijs Bertulis It´s 45 acp subsonic so its harder to penetrate body armor
+Rendijs Bertulis As of some of the MW2 weapons, balancing. Makes the game great, but u think again and your minds go wtf? :P
I feel like the vector in most cod games is an underrated gun
It's the most over used smg in ghosts fyi
I agree! I got 1000 headshots with the vector on mw2 though! Was my favourite weapon and the fact it is underused made me love it more! Haha
Mario Alberto Garza and underpowered.
The ACR was underpowered but was like a laser beam. The vectors is the ACR of the SMG's
Mario Alberto Garza It was garbage in MW2 and not underrated at all in Black Ops 2.
Seriously.... i have no problems with my vector on long range, neither at direct firefights. i even use extended mags...
Looks like i found the old comments
the vector is good with mw3 stalker playstyle
6:26 most smg (including pistols) still gives you full walking speed while ads
In mw2?

i swear i see ppl going around on black ops 2 with scorpion and vector both rapid fire attachement the nightmares never end
it shall haunt you until either cod dies or rapid fire gets nerfed
lol then it will hunt me till i die
I used this when I was against my brother and cousin. It pissed them off so much lol.
I loved to use this in extreme tdm. It was so op the rate of fire obliterates everyone. Vector goes brrrrr
Ump & Usp both fires .45acp, both can kill with only 2 shots close range w/ stopping power.
Vector fires .45acp, needs 4 shots close range w/ stopping power.
Logic is not present in Call of Duty.
perhaps of the short barrel
+Besnik Nuro The Vector has a longer barrel length(140mm/5.5 in) whereas the H&K USP's barrel length is 112mm/4.4 in.
Like I said, logic is not present.
Yes , it is so indeed.
Seems like I can't argue with that
That gun had a lot of recoil from what I remember
If it fired 9mm instead of .45acp, it'd make more sense.
Plus, the whole design of the Vector was to mitigate recoil/muzzle climb to make it easier to handle when fired full-auto in real life, but in the game, good luck staying on target past 8 meters or so.
cuz of weapon balance. logic is not needed for the sake of balance.

I always come back to watch these. The quality of these videos is still top notch
It's one strategy that can work, particularly if you camp / play defensively. Flanking or otherwise surprising your enemy works well too.
This was one of my favorite guns with stopping power. It seems pretty underrated considering it already has pretty good accuracy an a very high rof, but when you add stopping power it is a MONSTER in my opinion.
"Stealth, speed, and suprise" isn't that spectre's quote from bo3?
The Vector is one of my favorite guns.
@AQWUnity In realistic terms, yes (barrel length is slightly shorter on the Vector but for .45 ACP it shouldn't make a massive difference). In weapon balance terms, IW had to reduce damage to a certain extent.
Does anyone remember and miss this guy? Missed he came back just for sh*ts and giggles for the new MW2 game
Not a single dude jumpshooting or dropshooting. Those were good old days dude

Wow, nice to see that your videos were already great ten years ago.

SuperR3volver It's called Weapon Balance, Dingus.
Dylan Pearson accuracy isn't the same as recoil
High accuaracy would be if the bullet actually hit were you aim
Its all in the name of game balance. Having a gun that can kill in two shots that leave the chamber faster than any other is almost like having a knife with infinite range.

vector with thermal and silencer is actually a complete beast until it runs out of ammo, which happens quickly with bling
Sold my gta5 for mw2 :D
@rapcorerocks right, but it is hard to be competitive without ex mags and scavenger, it's not very versatile sadly, because I love this gun
vector with rapid fire and holographic, backed up by a stinger and scavenger all day every day.
How do you have rapid fire, holographic and scavenger?
Allen Bitzer scavenger is a perk, not an attachement
