The UMP45 is the SMG many players would pick first. Insider Gaming says it is a three-shot kill at practically every range without Stopping Power, and Altered Gamer notes unusually high accuracy for the class. In Modern Warfare 2 (2009) multiplayer it stays useful from your first class to your last.
Best UMP45 loadout
The attachment and class are from a Steam guide (11 June 2018), which calls it a Rushing Class for short to medium range. It lists a Suppressor; the other guides and the attachment list call it the Silencer.
| Slot | Pick | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Attachment | Silencer | Altered Gamer says silencers generally limit range |
| Secondary | M93 Raffica | Machine pistol from the Steam class |
| Equipment | Frag | From the Steam class |
| Special Grenade | Stun Grenade | Slows and stuns enemies, per Altered Gamer |
| Perk 1 | Marathon Pro | Unlimited sprint, faster ladders and vaults |
| Perk 2 | Lightweight Pro | Faster movement, quicker shooting after running |
| Perk 3 | Commando Pro | Longer melee reach, no fall damage |
| Deathstreak | Painkiller | Temporary health boost on spawn |
Why this build works
The perk set is pure speed, and that only works because the gun's damage does not rely on Stopping Power. Altered Gamer says Lightweight replaces Stopping Power, so a hard-hitting gun is the right base. Marathon and Lightweight on an SMG are what Altered Gamer calls ultimate speed.
How to play it
Keep moving through short and medium range. At distance, Insider advises controlled bursts. Altered Gamer warns that Marathon adds a lag when raising your gun, which Lightweight Pro offsets. On small maps Insider says Stopping Power is worth adding because of the UMP's lower fire rate.
Alternative setups
Altered Gamer recommends Akimbo UMPs at least once, and says to stick with iron sights because recoil makes the red dot useless.
Unlock notes
Altered Gamer gives level 4. It says Akimbo takes 30 kills with FMJ, while the Steam guide says 30 kills with Rapid Fire.
