Which grip did use use for the compare? Vert? Can you also try with angled?

[@Vichikuma]

I just got a ban without explanation or duration. I have no idea why. The only program I use when playing is SoundLock, that I learnt about in the official PUBG Latam discord server, thanks to a content creator video published in a only-creators channel of the server. Are SoundLock or programs that limit volume forbidden? I've seen various content creators using them 🙃

[@Vichikuma]

Guys, don't play and/or spend money on PUBG pc: at any moment they perma ban you randomly and w/o explanation. It was my case and I just played for fun with no hacks or anything of the like, I was just a normal, mediocre player, not talented, but that spend some considerable money on the game, that I now regret doing. Don't make the same mistake.

[@Flypcyde81]

They ruined the AUG. The m4 in my opinion is way better. its not even close

[@Sikdomeshot]

I prefer the M4 because the recoil feels more controllable and the gun feels better at range.

[@YecrozGaming]

thats weird , for me it complete opposite ( before patch)

[@gvrrison717]

SCAR is the 556 gun for range, IMO. My fav overall. Prefer Beryl or Ace over any 556 guns though

[@YecrozGaming]

agreed scar is amazing for range accurcy but before aug nerf for me atleast i could spray just as good with aug , right now my go 2 are scar - m4 and then aug@@gvrrison717

[@karlkarlsson9126]

M4 has the stock, which gives additional, so it's more friendly.

[@pelleschwartz6475]

I watch these videos even though i dont play the game anymore. Thanks for a thorough comparison.

[@javianbrown8627]

I do the same. His videos are just so good

[@JoshMarohl]

I've been using the AUG as my primary spray gun since it started being a world spawn, but after today's update I really felt a significant difference in how it handles. The vertical and even horizontal recoil were noticeably different than before, and I was suddenly missing a lot more sprays that I normally hit. The Beryl even feels easier to handle for me now, and I don't usually run 7.62 guns. I saw someone mention something about screen shake, and while I haven't scientifically tested it or anything, that might have something to do with it, too. Either way, I'll likely be going back to the M416 as my primary spray. As Wacky mentioned, the AUG still has a technically lower TTK, but that doesn't really matter as much as controllability in a real fight where targets are moving around, taking cover, etc. For me, the ability to track and keep my sights on target is much more important than a negligible decrease in TTK time. Thanks again for doing the Lord's work, Wacky, lol.

[@alun1038]

This just makes the Beryl more favourable, AUG was supposed to be more controllable with higher fire rate but packing less damage. Now it has almost nothing on Beryl

[@martinkrajscak4381]

There is also one more factor - wacky used tactical stock which only reduces weapon sway and increases ADS speed, but has no effect on recoil, whereas heavy stock slightly reduces ADS speed but gives you even more recoil control. Also if you notice how M4 has very comfy recoil you can equip it with half grip or angled grip and the horizontal recoil will be much better, making it very comparable to AUG. Safe to say this nerf isnt enough to bring down the king, but at least the guns should be balanced now. I would also love to see some recoil + time to kill comparisons of SCAR-L as it used to be beginner friendly gun with slightly lower DPS than M4 in the past. Now it lives in the AUGs shadow and I would really love to see if its comparable.

CDome watch Wackyjacky, great 👍🤗🙋‍♂️

[@veilmontTV]

It's really not much of a nerf. Bullet damage velocity and fire rate are the same

[@lucifermorningstar1636]

This AUG nerf was really unnecessary. PUBG being try-hards and trying to shove the Beryl/Dragunov as the new meta, breaking the AUG/MK12. I'm moving to the 2 underrated guns, ACE and SCAR.

[@panda51829able]

Agreed. It was nice to see the aug gain popularity against the beryl, which also gave diversity in weapons compared to the beryl. Gg’s

[@liberty_t4boo]

ACE is the best assault rifle in this game, imho

[@TolisWorld]

What do you like about the scar? I've literally never used it in a game. Why should I pick it over the others?

[@lemmitsen]

​@@TolisWorldIf you're not that good at controlling recoil, the scar is nice because the recoil isn't that high

[@therealronswanson]

im also all for the ACE, not because i have a preference for one or the other but simply because my stats tells me that i have better hit % with the ACE. so in my hands that is the best weapon. plus it pairs nicely with the bolt action rifles i enjoy using over DMR's@@liberty_t4boo

[@Legoflust]

Probably stick with the M416 but that has nothing to do with the quality of skins I have between the two choices 😂

[@n1tn4t]

Taking the M4 after the update will be an absolute nobrainer for me, considering that both weapons need the same amount of shots to kill a player in every scenario, while the recoil of the AUG is now significantly higher. The difference in time to kill is only due to the slightly lower time between shots for the AUG. Correct me if I'm wrong.

[@nunni7825]

Im a big fan of the current AUG (before the update), and without having tried it after the nerf, i think i would still prefer the AUG. Because in my opinion vertical recoil is easier to learn your brain, versus the horizontal which in pubg is random. But exited to try it out in battle, maybe im gonna be wrong here

[@Wolverine6877]

The AUG/ STEYR is my go-to on PUBG. When I served in the NZ Army it was our personal assault weapon. Will have to check out the recoil next time I load up my Xbox. Great Video as always WJ 😊

[@devilsadvocate2643]

nice video ! It basically boils down to: with M4 you hit more shots, with AUG you hit slightly harder. I'd rather take the M4, as missing one bullet due to the higher recoil of the AUG is much more detrimental IMO.

[@dallanc5199]

My metric is I win more with the M4 than the Aug.

Thx for summarizing

[@Mirco_01]

I usually play 7.62 ARs but i prefer the AUG for 5.56. The reason is that my feeling of firerate and recoil feels a bit better on the AUG. Additional to that i have no problem with the vertical recoil or kick bec I play the AKM as main AR

[@Mirco_01]

I even prefer the Scar over a M416. Sounds insane i know^^

[@BlueKookie888]

I feel the AUG has a really big screen shake, even in comparison with the 7.62 ACE, this is quite disoriented to spray. I usually found myself using more ACE than AUG nowadays.

[@seand3847]

I just noticed I was missing more shots with the Aug recently, so i have been dropping it in favor to the Vector. I thought it was because of my new controller. lol

[@beegees333]

Lol the second Aug nerf hasn't even hit console yet... maybe just your aim ;)

[@seand3847]

@@beegees333 damn maybe it's the new controller or using the vector too much. lol

[@krazyhorse9596]

I dont really use the AUG. ACE or Beryl are my go to ARs. I just hope PUBG dont nerf the ACE. I hate nerfs. Buff the Scar, that AR gets no damn love at all.

[@Graeme_Gtrain]

Good work as always Wackey. I play with the AUG as preference, but will take an M416. Can you do another video of this nature comparing the M416 directly to the ACE?

[@pinkdink1210]

I'm not sure how old the video is but he does have one involving the M4 vs Ace vs Beryl 👍

[@vulpineking215]

m416 with red dot and a mini14 with a 6 scope (sometimes) single amo gives me more room for throwables. but I lean more toward an m24 ace combo. But sometimes I just run with whatever I find first as a personal challenge. This game is more fun when you create a game within the game. start naked, only wear items from victims must change to their weapons, etc. Love WJ for all his antics and perspectives.

[@kylegordy113]

Try m16 instead of mini. U might just love it. Or ace /mutant. I keep them both single fire only. Unless pushed close up ofc

[@eduardsbremers1831]

My weapon of choice combo for years!

[@GemHerzog]

I hate getting sprayed down with a 3x aug. I believe all AR’s should have increased recoil and screen shake when equipped with a 3x or above

[@ZerkModePUBG]

Agree

[@rising_fredo_pixel]

Definitely. That looks like pubg mobile (m4 mobile)

[@kylegrace9128]

I choose m416 because I used the gun a lot and it is more comfortable to handle wacky and thank you for your amazing videos very appreciated ❤

[@svarte-petter8527]

would be nice to see AUG vs Beryl since the AUG nerf is an indirect buff to the Beryl

[@DylRicho]

I always choose the M4 anyway simply because the AUG recoil is comical. Now it's even worse? Jesus.

[@LegendaryNuggets]

What's the point in nerfing the AUG? It's a crate weapon. That's the whole point of the crate - to give players better gear for a higher risk of going for it.

[@moralobjection4836]

I think I'll just stick with the beryl since every time I decide I like the aug they nerf it into the ground.

[@siegfriedmordrake3229]

Idk how you do that, I never managed to control that gun even with every attachments on xD

[@micahrussell2176]

I finally got the neon progressive skin for the AUG so im picking that every time now lmao

[@henrique.h.2990]

I use the Ace/SLR most of the time. However, I also like to play with the AUG/M4 + Mini. I avoid snipers because I'm suck with them, haha.

[@Rudi_Mentary]

Now compare the aug to the beryl

[@rjaballe]

M4 = higher H.Recoil AUG = higher V.Recoil For me... M4 better with Half.Grip Aug better with Vert.Grip

[@Danthompsen]

Oh man I hope this is one of those videos where Wacky shoots at a wall and plots the recoil

[@lukecameron432]

Always been an AK guy. But out of the two I’d rather go with the M4, the tactical stock has always felt like a sneaky upgrade, that’s why I love the vector so much

[@jkwanskies]

For me ACE32/M24 or any bolt action, that is my go to loadout

[@walterwhite415]

I mostly take the first one I find of the two and keep it. So far I have not decided wich one I prefer, but I slightly like the M4 better.

[@AeroxMZL]

So Beryl Meta it is now?

[@iitsMikeB]

Fun fact. I was playing a couple of days ago with my friend, and we were under the impression that the patch was already live, so we were scolding the Aug for having high recoil (It also felt that way). Then I got an insane game, where I was hitting the nastiest sprays across the map with Thumbgrip aug, and I commented that: "The aug is still insane". Then I found out later that the patch wasn't out yet. So if anyone wonders... Yes, placebo is real.

[@oemchen77]

😂

[@Dan11jel]

M416 Because i have skin and special name on kill feed😅

[@Spartanowitch]

same xD

[@azrigotnochill]

This is the reason why i watch wacky, love the content man. Keep up the good work

[@-TruthHurts]

i really got used to the Ace/SLR combo over time.... but if i find and AUG and MK12 it will be my loadout for the game regardless.

[@Harklein]

If you're just waiting for somebody to get in your sights while you crouch and wait in a corner while in ADS I think the Aug will win 80% of the time against the M416 BUT since that's not always the case I believe the M416 has the advantage overall since it has a buttstock that increases ADS speed and you can attach either a thumb grip to increase the ADS even faster or a half grip to have better stability while still having a faster ADS because of the buttstock. In a game where reaction time matters a lot I believe the M416 will win most of the time in a normal scenario.

[@yessuz]

I would like to see the aug vs m416 vs Scarl comparison

[@thanhlongtran1993]

pls make a video about Mini and MK12

[@Lifeisawheelie]

Heavy stock is now the spray attachment, and tactical stock is for singlefire. Look at their stats, they changed them. Flipped it

[@mickomag2768]

really?so what grip would be best for the heavy stock then

[@dmbb123]

​@@mickomag2768the faster one, thumb grip to compensate ads, I personally use vertical grip

[@codymason1053]

M416 has always been my workhorse if i need it b4 i swap to m249

[@west5385]

I choose the one I have a better skin for. I have a stat track aug skin so I use that

[@smudge1619]

Beryl with comp and vert + Dragunov is unstoppable

[@warstomper123]

i love these videos however does pubg increasing recoil really matter these days when 1 in 2 players are using no recoil hacks/scripts on asia servers?

[@moogleslam]

Being terrible at managing recoil, this is why I still use the SCAR-L for a 5.56mm weapon :)

[@godfatherrobertrapsection]

Between M4 and AUG I'm going to most likely run both at once honestly I love the AKM for my cqc the Aug is not a bad choice for cqc with the red dot I usually find myself sporting an m4 with a 4x and tac stock along with the thumb grip akm with comp and red dot My alternative loadout would be the MK12 8x lightweight grip and any barrel attachment would be fine then a Scar with a 2x and I like to carry a laser sight in my UAZ trunk for those drive by situations and run an angle foregrip or a thumb grip if angled is not available. People really underestimate the Scar with that 2x it is by far my favorite weapon with a 2x on it.

[@theonlyjeff]

I’m in team Scar 😅

[@irvindalacourt7178]

thank you for the great content. I like better the Aug but the M4 is a nice weapon too for learners like me. It feels more consistent when aiming

[@oink988]

It's more concerning that in this patch they not only didn't remove dragunov altogether, they buffed it!? Devs are delusional

[@toddthegod3221]

I love them both but the aug definitely is king. Once you use both for a period of time and get used to each guns recoil, having something that kills quicker is quite nice. The m4 just feels right and is hard to pass up though

We need tier list for ar and dmr. Sniper rifles are pretty much same

[@ExTerminatorOP]

Efforts !! Valuable knowledge...Thanks Wacky

[@outlaw_dave7187]

Thank you good information i use both

[@rising_fredo_pixel]

1:24 now imagine that you adds the heavy stock instead of tactical.

[@mrmakhno3030]

I love the old M4. But for the current game meta I will choose the AUG.

[@imnotallergic]

I don’t even pay attention to any of that, I just run and shoot

[@zvecarka]

Yep AUG is harder to control cause of recoil but its definitely worth it of mastering that weapon cause of high DPS, if ure too close to the enemy u dont even need to aim, just shoot, and its definitely good vs campers, i obliterated one camper without aiming and he had AKM

[@RySLz]

AUG & Half/Angled Grip still beats everything and I'm a Beryl main.

[@thenoldorprince]

Since I've chosen my fav AR - M416 wins. Even with AUG before nerf. Just I know how to control this gun and kill better with it.

[@siegfriedmordrake3229]

I'd still use the Aug just for the style points it gives

[@Thuennes]

It almost seems like Heckler & Koch payed more than Steyr to keep the M416 meta 😅

[@rising_fredo_pixel]

I don't know if it's just me, but on the test server I noticed the AUG more difficult to control than the Beryl, both without attachments.

[@oemchen77]

I felt it was very similar. But that could be just me...

[@deadspeedv]

I love the sound of the M416. I converted to AUG but since its nerf then I think M416 will be my main AR

[@cory6266]

M4 is good if you're a newer player, all the attachments make it easy to control. AUG is better when you have more experience.

[@ack6606]

Would love to know where the ace a beryl stand with these

[@B-Shep]

I notice in most videos people mention crouching is better but what about laying down and spraying?

[@MrReese]

I always had the feeling that the AUG had very annoying horizontal recoil and thus it never was really viable for me except in very close combat situations.

[@JDMatthias]

I avoid the M4 and all 5.56 weapons unless in a pinch, I'll use the AUG. NOW maybe it's an illusion idk, but I've done better trying to land fewer rounds on my opponents with the 7.62 weaponry than spray-praying with 5.56

[@nicholasmattiello8959]

The aug is realistically better, the bullpup system adds a huge barrel length giving it better velocity and accuracy, the firing pin being in the rear would give it much better recoil control. Realistically the nerf should hit the reload speed on the aug

[@EMJAY88GAMING]

I'll always choose the m416. Always has always will be my favourite.

[@0002pA]

Blueballs, once again, nerfing a weapon so much that they make it all samey. Because we can't have weapons that stand out one way or another. The devs REALLY hate their players having fun.

[@arnettlewis3453]

Been waiting for this video actually.

[@blvcklicorice423]

if they were gonna make the crate weapon a world spawn then atleast nerf the number of spawn points,like flares

[@dcharles7]

I will probably avoid the Aug now over the beryl and m4. They are focusing too much on the same guns that are already meta. They need to look at other guns at some point that nobody uses over these meta weapons.

[@iambetrayal]

[@ibrahimkataya4476]

I think its time to make a new video about the best assault rifle in the game

[@icemansb1]

I switch to ACE and is a big difference in damage area.

[@Agostinho86]

3x aug still feels better than 3x M4 or RD M4 for mid range spray. for short range aug is much more consistant

[@DRHODES1979]

I've always liked the M4 more just based just on the sound. I hate the high pitched sound of the AUG.

[@kavoo0]

So how does this compare to 7.62 ARs? Will people gravitate more towards 7.62 ARs or just switch to an M416? I keep hearing about a possibility of PUBG entering a 7.62 meta after this patch, but what exactly does this mean?

[@kuro_INTJ]

Does MK47 good when you mastered burst into auto ?

[@dopemanricky7196]

I feel like people are sleeping on the ace and m16

I chose the M416 over the AUG even before both nerfs it received.

[@nomadvalley4247]

Hey Wacky I'm wondering why the conversation is about M4/Aug and Ace/Berryl why can't they buff the SCAR, AKM, and add more assault rifles ?
