Is the .50 Beowulf M4 Kit Coming to MWIII Next Week??

Before the launch of Season 3 of Modern Warfare III, we got a blog post that outlined nearly all of the Aftermarket Parts that we could earn via weekly challenges and one of the images showed a .50 Beowulf M4 conversion kit but there was no description given. Today, I wanted to discuss the likelihood of this being our Week 8 unlock as well as my hopes for this kit once it does eventually come to the game. What are your thoughts on a potential 50 caliber M4 coming to MWIII?

It will either be mid or absolutely devastating 😂

[@Kait0s]

I have a feeling it'll be like the Jak Jawbreaker except with a higher rate of fire and probably higher recoil as well. Either that or something close to the Battle Rifles. 4 shots to kill or 3 with a headshot.

[@gamerbg294]

but the FTAC Recon already does basically what xclusiveace proposed for this supposed conversion kit

[@DJCinthaBoy]

Probably similar to the full auto Desert Eagle

[@RadioFW]

​@@gamerbg294 The m4 already does what the Jak patriot does and we got that. It wouldn't be out of character to release a new aftermarket instead of buffing the weapon it becomes lmao

[@dillonc7955]

.50 beowulf is most similar to the caliber the Oden from MW2019 fires, so I imagine this would greatly reduce the M4s fire rate to balance this caliber's ridiculous power.

[@salemnikolaevichmorozov3563]

12.7x55 packs more punch than the .50 Beowulf, actually...the .50 Beowulf is just a glorified medium game hunting cartridge, despite the initial intent of using it for vehicle-stopping purposes...Something that the ASh-12 does really well, actually...

[@crushingexistentialism]

@@salemnikolaevichmorozov3563 yeah but it's not THAT different. Both are just big bore ar pattern rifles. In real life the application for .458 and .50beo are identical. They have the same magazine capacity (8 in a standard 30 round ar mag) and the same harsh recoil and massive on target performance. It would be like if they added an aftermarket kit for the lachmann 5.56 that turned it into a 6.5 creedmoor battle rifle that was basically identical to the lachmann 7.62. It's just adding pointless duplicate weapons.

[@seann2769]

We already have .458 SOCOM. Do we need really any more high caliber low capacity conversions? 50 Beowulf and .458 SOCOM are basically just meme calibers. You shoot them once and then you realize it was a dumb idea to buy them. They’re just big fat bullets that have bad ballistics. I’d rather see a 6.5 Grendel conversion for a battle rifle if we’re sticking with the AR-15 platform.

[@beausimmons8357]

I've got one of these irl and I love it. Can't wait to make it in game and see if it's any good

[@jimbobsclayworld2439]

I’ve figured out the Lachmann shroud (burst suppressed mp5) is a 3 shot kill in semi auto “To the body”, I have a feeling it will become sought-after soon… (reason being: roughly the same ttk as the so-14 (battle rifle version of m-14), with better mobility and handling stats)

[@ShinSZN]

I mean if it doesn't it'll Probably be the week 1 season 4 AMP

[@blackstone1a]

some dataminers were able to find it in the WZM code and its basically a semi automatic sniper balancing wise

[@JagsP95]

I have a beowulf in real life and the recoil in semi is beefy enough, imagine what it would be like at full auto.

[@Sapo246]

I would, love some more cool kits in this game, i got some nice suggestions, -Jak Nimrod for the Lachmann shroud, weaker than the base gun uses 9mm sub but set to auto: -Jak Bear hunter for the Bryson 890 turns it into a pump action marksman rifle using 300.win -Jak foxhound barrel for the 50.gs gives the gun a sniper esk barrel: -Jak tula for the kastov 545 essentially converting the gun into a as val -jak bludgeoner for the FTAC gives it a LSW base while using a binary trigger -jak bulldog for the P890, essentially makes the pistol automatic

[@ImStabathon]

It's most likely coming next Season and was an accident. Week 8 is an BP50 blueprint with the Allegiance Camo.

[@Geauxmaha]

That’s terrible

[@DannyBusch69]

really hope it performs like the Oden from MW19. my fav gun that i feel like nobody else used

[@joshuahoffman1202]

All they need to do is just make it like the 2019 cal change. Same ROF, 10 rounds, strong but limited by ammo. Was great in MP and usable in WZ, just not for more than 1 person

[@dalcon04]

It’s going to be a week 8 reward but it’s going to be a pain to get

[@DeathJr96R]

It's def not. They showed the roadmap and dataminers have already gone through, the week 8 challenge is just a BP50 blueprint. They just posted the M4 AMP screenshot on accident because the intern running the page just saw "M4 AMP" and didn't check which one.

[@milomateer6565]

They need to give some more love to the M4. It’s a classic gun but under utilized in mw3 cuz it came out last year nobody uses it

[@randompillow5146]

Would be nice of them to release it early because they made a mistake in the blog post, but I don’t expect it.

[@smallvillefever6258]

They confirmed in the mid season blog post that week 8 is gonna be a weapon blueprint. Not another AMP, unfortunately.

[@legendaryleon6270]

I dont think we’ll get this in week 8. If i remember correctly the devs stated somewhere that the week 8 reward was gonna be some blueprint

[@farenhitegr6493]

Highly unlikely. Remember, in S1 and S2 they only gave blueprints, and I don't think they have any inclination to change that behavior despite the mistakes we have seen.

[@getthegoons]

Watch next week be a single shotgun version of the Model 1887.

[@Hungtran0707]

Crazy idea: give m4 classic look with carry handle called jak old school. Which has rate of fire of 950rpm.

[@thrax_843]

Doesn’t matter when the game and sens feels different with every update, there’s def a delay since this last update not to mention the aim drag feels real off and wonky they need to fix that and thier servers

Ahhh yes, I fucking hope they add it

[@R.O.U.S.]

So, with the FTAC Recon, and real-world metrics for ballistic peformance of both .50 Beowulf, and .458 SOCOM, well. "Corporate wants you to find the difference between .50 and .458." "They're the same picture."

Soo technology an Ftac recon?

[@dragonofthewhiteflame4987]

I'm thinking its the 10 round mag M4. Slower fire rate hits like a truck So I agree that it may be a conversion to a battle rifle. When? I also agree next season.

Does anyone know what his outro music is? Edit: found it its 'light utopia' by formantx if anyone is looking

if its gonna be .50 beowulf it needs to have extraordinary penetration, because thats what its used for irl

[@emp1985]

50 beowulf, three shot kill? Wouldn't make much sense, when the sidewinder is chambered in 450 huntsman (I assume that's based on 450 Bushmaster). .50 beowulf is usually ~355gr, and 450 is in comparisson barely 250gr. Yes, I know, it's a game. But some sense of balance should exist. I think the M4 Beowulf should end up being more a Marksman rifle with that 2-shot kill, than a battle rifle with 3-shot kill. IMO.

[@ApexRSVL]

Don’t bring realism into this. Balance is more important than being remotely realistic

[@emp1985]

@@ApexRSVL That's what I said. I'm only suggesting the gun would make sense as an "Auto" Marksman Rifle instead of a Battle Rifle. Set it at an RPM that places it in the 260ish ms TTK with high recoil to balance it against the other MRs, and there... you have both... balance and at least a sense of realism. I'm not saying turn CoD into Arma or something.

[@Jellyes]

I feel like a 50. Cal m4 shoudl be like a barrett. 50 cal woule he a massive bullet to not 1 shot. Im sure a few of the 1 shot snipers are 50 cal

I played yesterday and it's one gun I kept dying to and pretty much the only gun I could run into in lobbies. It's absurd it's going on 3 weeks without being touched, but actual fun ones (e.g; the Outlaw kit) gets nerfed IMMEDIATELY, when tbh I barely ran into anyone even using the kit within the 2 day period it was busted.

The game balance is just so stupid now. Why arent they buffing the mw2 weapons? They're there, they were kept in this game, so make them useful instead of these stupid kits. Just buff the mk2 carbine! Just buff the Broadside! Stop "changing the gun" to make it viable. Just buff the guns and make them fun again! I would LOVE to see the Hurricane buffed, the mx9, the lachman shroud, p90, spx 80, just let the other guns exist in the meta.
