In Call of Duty 4 they are. Why do you think you hear people complaining about being put up against level 50's using the same powerful weapons. They are slightly more powerful by like one or two bullets though so it isn't that bad.
Obviously people making these threads have played very little CoD4.
The M40A3, the first sniper, is the most accurate sniper, and has great potential to be the most powerful. I still use it, in fact, and I am a level 55.
The M16, the first assault rifle, is the most unbalanced weapon in the game, kind of like the BR. It is highly accurate, and kills very fast.
The MP5, the first SMG, is also one of my personal favorites, and is also a great weapon.
Those who complain about higher levels having 'better' guns don't know what they are talking about, most of the time they are players who have played games like Halo, and are used to having a BR type weapon that can just dominate everything (and the funny thing is that they do have a BR type gun, the M16, so the very fact that they are whining baffles me).
Every weapon in CoD4 has, more or less, the same amount of pros and cons. So any weapon can be considered to be the best weapon in the game by a certain player if they know how to use it properly. I consider the AK-74u to be the best SMG, and I absolutely despise the mini uzi. Yet I have talked to those who love the mini uzi. It all has to do with your preference.
Again, don't start saying CoD4 is bad just because it is different. Especially when you haven't played it a lot.
Except in Call of Duty, the weapons, damage, and gameplay all encourage a "hold the right trigger and win" mentality. Hence; my nickname for the game "Holdrighttriggerandwin II".
In Halo, you can't just sit around and get points for losing. You are expected to have personal skill to add to the team. It does not matter if that "skill" is flag touching and going -14 because of it. You are expected to contribute to the team.
I can obtain the highest rank in Call of Duty for standing around, and maybe even get some kills for holding the right trigger.
Do NOT compare the Battle Rifle to the M16. The fact they are burst-fire means nothing. The M16 is like spawning with Rockets in Halo... it's a one shot kill.
Similarly, sniping in Call of Duty encourages not holding the right trigger, but spamming it. Team Snipers in Halo has this and it's called the Beam Rifle. Yet, take two shots one after the other and you overheat your weapon, nice job!
Call of Duty... bam bam bam bam bam "did I hit a target with my massive right trigger fury?"
