The Battlefield 6 beta has been out for a while now, and with it, the gun debate continues to rage among players. While the M87A1 shotgun is often touted as the best shotgun in the game, the reality is that it’s broken, especially when paired with slug rounds. Even EA has acknowledged this by toning down the weapon on the latest internal build.
On the other hand, the M4A1 carbine has been quietly flying under the radar, but it’s actually one of the strongest guns in the beta. Its 900rpm and 25 damage per shot make it a formidable opponent up close and at medium range. However, its recoil and bullet deviation can be a concern.
Luckily, the M4A1’s performance can be significantly improved with the right attachments. The early unlock of Soft Point bullets boosts headshot damage multiplier to x1.7, while a 36-round magazine allows for quick and efficient ammo management. With these tweaks, the M4A1 becomes a force to be reckoned with.
One popular loadout for the M4A1 includes:
– Compensated Brake
– 14.5″ Carbine Barrel
– Ribbed Vertical Underbarrel
– 36RND Magazine
– Soft Point Ammunition
– Improved Mag Catch Ergonomics
– RO-M 1.50x Scope
While personal playstyle may vary, the M4A1’s unique blend of range and handling makes it a top contender in the Battlefield 6 beta. Will EA take notice and nerf this gem? Only time will tell, but for now, it’s a must-play for fans of fast-paced, aggressive gameplay.
