Is the Jackal PDW Still a Top Tier SMG? | (Stats & Best Attachment Setups)

[@aj6156]

Short answer- Yes

[@KXZero]

Considering the problems with this game, I bet money that the extended mag 1 and base mag had their coding switched.

[@bobdarrick2628]

Yeah it’s probably what happened but the game is very good overall.

[@veggie928]

Can't wait to finish Dark Matter just so I can go back to using the guns I want to use like the Jackal and the C9.

[@steviejoe66]

nobody's forcing you to camo grind lmao. Just use the guns you want to and have fun.

[@cudderlover1216]

Same. I try and end every session with a meta gun to keep my sanity lol

[@Werewolf914]

That's the good thing with Zombies grind using whatever gun isn't bad the only ones that are a pain are the ones that become explosive after pack a punch makes the Headshots a little more tedious but for the most part using whatever in Zombies is fine

[@dillonc7955]

Or Option B: Use your favorite guns and actually enjoy the game. Anyone who isn't a content creator is a fool for being so fixated on the camo grind.

[@nicolasmiranda2579]

feel you bro, just unlocked d matter yesterday and hopefully i can finish with the guns im missing today

[@UnversedNote94]

[@Adderflail]

Swear they switched the extended mag1 and standard reload. Even the base empty reload is faster.

[@emtmike21]

There is a reason it got a VMP blueprint

[@bannankev]

Yup

[@jeremybrown9611]

Yes it still is. I use this in Stakeout when dudes start wilding and things get hectic😂

[@RebelRising22]

Same frfr

[@erickvicari1275]

It’s a ninja checker 😂

[@roberttaylor4213]

Been waiting for this video. Leveled up this weapon last night

[@IZSIN222]

It’s so good. My favorite gun in the game!

[@louie354]

This my fav gun all around especially going againts other sweats😂

[@Cokeamo1]

Thanks again for all your hard work Ace!

[@brolapse69]

In theory, could you not flash someone for that 1 damage, then land 3 headshots for 99 damage, thus a 3 shot kill without the CHF barrel?

[@Razgriz_Ace18]

Theory yes, in practice? Probably sporadic results.

[@Slickjc1]

PDW & KSV are the SMGs I use the least. Feel like C9 is the best overall. PP919 is my personal favorite. I like the Saug on Face Off maps.

[@suttonspeshul5585]

First clip looking like shottzy

[@shaneoscar4561]

Biggest reason ppl are leaving this game is by far cheaters. They are truly out of control right now !!!

[@jvanderwall617]

Does this game have a firing movement stat like Cold War did with the FFAR?

[@GoesWithTheNameOfGTJ]

Was hoping you’d do a Ranked build for this weapon. For as far as I know, the pros use: Compensator, Long Barrel, Ranger Foregrip, Ergonomic Grip, Balanced Stock, but I’m not sure about Compensator vs Ported Compensator and Infiltrator Stock vs Balanced Stock

[@jolbertti7421]

Balanced stock is useless

[@GoesWithTheNameOfGTJ]

@ so I’ve heard yet I see a lot of pros using it, not sure why

[@shaneoscar4561]

Jackal or KSV are the best guns in the game period. ( haven’t used the Kompact)

[@egg3098]

The blueprint you get on seventh seventh or eight prestige’s makes the gun best smg overall in my opinion

[@bryb2644]

Just got it last night.

[@beltransanchez5571]

I know all the pros use it but I find the KSV soooo much more comfortable. Also why do you use the Infiltrator stock rather than the Balanced stock? Thank you!

[@davidredden2002]

The ksv is such a sleeper I started using it the past week. Infiltrator is better than balanced because you can move faster while ads

[@MavicAVF]

Ace would you say te vertical grip is needed on this gun? Or could I run something else instead in a different slot?

[@vortex7s]

Can you make a video about how Important "sprint to fire speed" is. I never pick any other grip than quickdraw grip and I dont know If commando grip would be better because you get both ads and stf speed at the sime time. Most of the time I do tactical sprint to shoot and ads at the same time and it feels like assult grip or commando grip is not helping in the hipfire to ads time or maybe I just cant tell because of the low ms difference with the default latency. So I wonder if stf speed helps in the hipfire to ads time and would I get the first hitmarker faster if I picked commando grip and maybe mix it sterlok laser too instead of quickdraw grip.

[@Coraza17]

So what’s the best smg then ?

[@JamariJones-x1w]

Just like the m4 this is all I die to

[@reesemoore8542]

I have more deaths in my second prestige to the krig then I do to the jackal, and xm4 combined for my lifetime stats

[@phazonlord0098]

Nah, it's always akimbo Saugs for me.

[@Sherlock0lms]

Hey Ace, are you going to to a separate video for the kompakt burst attachement or are you going to include it in your weapon guide for the compact? Thx for all the detailed videos :)

[@TheXclusiveAce]

I think I'll be putting in the Gun Guide itself but not 100% sure yet

[@emiliocontreras8148]

@TheXclusiveAce have you ever thought of someone using long barrel+(fire mods) the nato overpressured

[@spederm0n283]

Ranked Build: Compensator Ranger Foregrip Long Barrel Ergo/CQB Grip Infiltrator Stock

[@S3BAST1AN696]

This is still arguably the best SMG in game based on its flexibility and high overall movements speeds and handling even when running the largest mags and building for longer range as well as some if not the cleanest iron sights for a SMG along with great recoil. Non if any other SMG beats it in term of being effectively a great choice in any context overall. Apart from really extended ranges this gun has no true real weakness... like the saug is great close and so is the kompsct 92 but they higher recoil and worse range and dps drops in terms of STK quicker than this gun, sight as not as good and movement isnt as good as this gun. Like yeah they might be better CQB but the flexibility of this gun still makes it top.

[@josestacks730]

Just some constructive, wen putting the recoil plots , if you can try to line them up with the grid , because from the naked eye the CHF barrel looks like there’s LESS horizontal recoil as well , and that may be more likable for a player because most ppl can handle vertical recoil better than horizontal , idk if it’s like that for all guns but just another layer for the breakdown

[@JordanDavis-ib6dy]

I heard this game lost 58% of their playerbase in the last month. You should do a video on that, a lot of streamers have given up on COD

[@TheXclusiveAce]

Been working on it for a few days. Hoping to have it finished for tomorrow but it's a long one

[@brandonvansylalom]

So sad. Plus I’ve heard some folks have shifted to older CODs, like MW19 and BO2 etc

[@Honeneko.]

Does that statistic account solely for Steam? Should spike as Xmas just passed and XBOX GP only helps numbers. Activeplayer shows that there has been a very small change between this and last month in terms of daily users. Though, I don't know how accurate they truly are.

[@JordanDavis-ib6dy]

@@Honeneko. yes those stats are only on steam. All the top COD streamers are either quitting, or losing views.

[@ILostYourSoul]

For me, this is the most boring COD in a long time, me being this disengaged this early in its life cycle is unusual. The maps are mostly dull to play, the camo grind is boring, mostly just headshots, I prefer when the game makes you play in different ways (except mounted and longshots, I don't like challenges that force you to be passive). The guns are very samey and lack individuality and feel like they have no recoil. The events have been lackluster compared to MW3, and I don't appreciate grinding for perks only to find it is a Warzone only one. Compared to MW3 multiplayer this feels a big step back

[@SylvainSnd]

Where is the Ranked play build for this gun? I feel like there should be one because its the main smg this year.

[@yasserahmed7646]

Ace please do one for my beloved Komkapt! Idk if it’s actually statically good or if its just me that feel it’s so good with the rapid fire!

[@noahgoldowitz]

Thank you

[@Adrian-19-A]

Yes

[@yurrgee]

Main SMG on Ranked, so you tell us….

[@Razgriz_Ace18]

Wait. Wait. 7:10 Is this an XclusiveAce build WITHOUT the infiltrator stock? Clearly a skin walker took his place and this isn't him.

[@normalbasketballdude4445]

on controller perhaps, but saug and kompakt is more reliable on m&k

[@alexmaurice4274]

Why is this the main smg for pros over the like c9 or something?

[@Ordyh]

Since he decided NOT to do a Ranked build here we go: Compensator, Long Barrel, Ranger Foregrip, Ergonomic Grip and Balanced Stock. It's literally what all the Pros use in the CDL.

[@alexstromberg7696]

None playes ranked that’s why

[@dillonc7955]

Probably because everything else that's good has been banned. Can't even use the AK74 anymore 🤣

[@wilsonwallace8755]

Balanced stock is ass, no/light or infiltrator are the only 2 options

[@davidredden2002]

Infiltrator stock is better

[@SirLexion]

Yes. In fact all smgs but the Tanto, kompact, and saug all need nerfs real bad lmao

[@goodday2139]

What do people actually think are the meta guns at the moment? XM4, Krig and Jackal?

[@ItsMiiUly]

I get that everyone does default to this gun. But Smgs are fairly balanced. The only one that struggles is the PP919 and for that you kinda want to resort to Rapid Fire for a faster TTK. But besides that the KSV has the better TTK upclose against almost every full auto weapon. I personally Dispise the C9 as the recoil pattern and slightly slower TTK is just not for me and I would Rather the PP + Rapid Fire, the KSV and the Jackal. But everything else is Still Totally usable.

[@dillonc7955]

Agreed. The PP90's only redeeming qualities right now is ammo capacity and recoil due to the slow fire rate. If you're not prefiring around corners, you're going to be outgunned a lot by anything else. Especially the Jackal and the SAUG.

[@lightofthesevenstars]

as i like to call it, the Jackass PDW

[@Cokeamo1]

Hi Ace. Not sure how to IM you but wanted to see if you knew about this. I sent the below to Activision support. Unless I am missing something it’s not possible to do this challenge for the Hard and Fast calling card. Hello. And it says with Gung-ho, dexterity, and ghost perks equipped, earn a triple kill with a primary weapon while sprinting, jumping, or diving. But this is a fix that would done on your end as I don’t see a way to be able to add three perks that are in the same category even with the perk greed card you can only select two of them from the perk 1 selection there is no way to select the third perk that you need to complete this challenge. Am I missing something Ace?

[@somerandomgamer1260]

Us warzone players are super unlucky we don’t have Ace making wz content. I absolutely love your videos and style but unfortunately MP just doesn’t do it for me.

[@goynwa7110]

Best gun in the game mid range close range you’re beating everything

[@gavthemonke8729]

Does anybody know how to carry 3 instead of 1 stim shot

[@bannankev]

I love it in hardcore since these maps are tiny as fuccccc 😆 maybe if we get bigger maps it will change. But for now. Nah, I love it

[@JappyChan]

The number one player on bo6 says it's his favorite gun...so i would say it falls in the meta lol

[@nachi6808]

It kinda sucks for me and i was excited for vault edition version since its purple

[@zalcan3620]

Jackal ops 6! Everytime you see a sweaty person playing and you start to beat them this gun comes out. Needs more nerfs.

[@bluis503]

Love hate relationship w this gun while doing camos....

[@kevinbeardsworth3756]

Just watch one ace video on gun guides and you’ve seen them all. All the guns are literally the same in bop6

[@Honeneko.]

Would you agree that the "pick 10" system would have made this game feel better? I know a lot of people do like the common sense or all-arounder class builds so that they can just jump into a game more easily without much thought. And that there's no penalty for most all the attachments, equipment, and perks you'd want.

[@TheXclusiveAce]

Absolutely

[@captainthruster9484]

I find it curious that certain big channels don't even mention how terrible this game is. You could at least address the damaged nerfs. As they are 100% real for sure. I'm not an amazing player, I usually go 20 and 15. Every game for the past five years… If I get eight or 10 kills in a row… Start off the match 10 and one. For sure I won't get a kill and I will die five times in a row

[@TheXclusiveAce]

I just uploaded a massive critical feedback video specific to BO6 last week (kzbin.info/www/bejne/mnanqJeEg6agjsU) and if I can get it finished in time, a huge video discussing the state of the franchise at the moment will be up tomorrow. I've tested extensively to try to prove that Skill Based Damage is real and the results consistently show it's not there. If it were there, I'd be able to prove it without a shadow of doubt within hours and it would make for a massively viral video for me as well as a huge community push to get rid of it but it's not there. I've addressed this many times but it seems many people would rather believe content creators that have built a career around finding or creating things to hate in CoD, rather than the ones that actually put the time in to test things properly while providing constructive feedback on the real issues.

[@Slasher_2ndAcc]

It is still top tier. Just lower than the saug in my opinion.

[@wallie1994]

For some reason this gun feels kinda weak to me.

[@dakotaseidel23]

I’m dominating nuke town with the jackal, been using fast motion laser with no stock on all my subs and it makes for great movement while hip firing, saved me countless times

[@obibongkenobi2622]

[@nijego]

[@cvmgaming568]

To the people who constantly use this thing probably with a cdl or menendez skin... Give it a rest 😂. Barely see any of you above a 1.5kd anyways

[@anonymoushuman8962]

On a none related topic.: Is anyone experiencing some very weird games? I mean I didn’t win a single game for 21 matches. I could not get a kill for the life of me. I haven’t been playing any different. I am an average player with a kd ratio of 1.21. Some games I can go 25-4 other games I am spawn killed consistently. I am trying to improve by playing more but I seriously don’t know what is happening. I exclusively play TDM. Any insights would be helpful PS I am using the jackal atm.

[@dillonc7955]

My recommendation is to branch out instead of just playing TDM. Spawns feel almost random as opposed to Domination where they stick pretty stubbornly as long as nobody flips spawns. Don't even bother with FFA as the scoreboard is completely broken. You'll think you're winning them someone with less kills will get higher place than you.

[@alonzor.2912]

This gun is fantastic. I played one game of domination in nuketown and went 72-11. The following game of hardpoint in nuketown I went 2-90 with the model L. There’s no comparison.

[@kaeroseon]

The magazine system for this game is so fucked up. There is 0 consistency and if you dont watch Ace youre not going to know if extended mag is faster than base mag or slower than extended mag 2. Cold war had a similar simplified style of gunsmith and man it did it way better than this game.

[@speedy316uk]

Put your hand up if you remember needing Bling to put two attachments on your gun! That broke our minds back then TWO ATTACHMENTS that's insane! Now we can have 8! Flipping 8!

[@jahsone7798]

BO6 isnt even a top tier game

[@Honeneko.]

I can agree, but the reality is that the game focuses more on gameplay than on customization; aside from skins. That feature was grandfathered in. In terms of gameplay for an FPS arcade shooter, it fits the bill.

[@patricbromii1178]

The Jackal PDW is based on Gepard PDW gun was not entered designated until the year 1995 and in 1997 that shows to Moscow for a firearm test, but it was forgotten and never enter service for Russians soldiers ever again sad 😢

[@davidvulakh744]

Quite literally the first AK derived SMG, to be honest.

[@Werewolf914]

Interesting I don't really know anything about Guns, which I know Americans are supposed to be experts but just never thought about looking into them

[@davidvulakh744]

@ Well as far as how CoD altered the design, there’s only one significant difference. The original Gepard uses a thumbhole grip, much like the Saug. The CoD version simplified it so that it is a bog standard pistol grip that you feed a mag into.

[@dillonc7955]

​@Werewolf914 It's moreso adults that know more about guns irl. A lot of my generation is iffy with gun knowledge since Guntubers make it easy for anyone to be a gun expert without any real life classes or training required.

[@drummaghua2687]

At the same time period, aks74u is still commonly used, while pretty much each bureau/unit has their own new smg going (pp19, pp91 kedr, ots02, etc) and they simply had zero budget to look at anything else during the aftermath of a total economical meltdown.

[@bluelab5019]

It's only good real close up. You get to 20 metres or more and it bounces like made and hits like a BB gun. Don't know why this year's cod has made SMG's so poor

[@TheGXDivider]

This game sucks. .How are you supposed getting weapons camos without Nuketown and Stakeout ? Ridiculous

[@applejuice5173]

@thexclusiveace it's time to stop covering for Activision. Don't be a puppet.

[@TheXclusiveAce]

Sir, this is a Gun Guide

[@StrawberryPidgey]

lemme guess supressor, extended mag, ergonomic grip, infiltrator stock Edit: yep lol the attachments in this game are so boring they took too many away

[@Honeneko.]

It's not that, they needed the "pick 10" system back. That was the issue with Vanguard. You could just throw everything on your builds. No limitations implemented to make things interesting.
