Source review — 10 November 2026: This is an original-game loadout from the dated guide below. Accessible source pages confirm the listed weapon attachment names. Perks and equipment retain their original dated attribution; the source review does not imply hands-on testing or a fresh balance-patch analysis.
The MG4 is a niche machine gun. Altered Gamer calls its damage ridiculously low for an LMG and wouldn't advise it outside Hardcore, where its high fire rate is the real advantage. In Modern Warfare 2 (2009) multiplayer, the verdict is to pass on it in core modes unless you run Stopping Power.
Best MG4 loadout
No major guide publishes a build for this gun, so this is our suggested setup from its available attachments. Altered Gamer (30 January 2010) gives the perk advice and general Grip note; the Steam guide (11 June 2018) confirms Grip for LMGs as a class, not this gun individually.
| Slot | Pick | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Attachment | Grip | Altered Gamer says it increases LMG accuracy |
| Perk | Stopping Power | Altered Gamer says never use anything else on normal modes |
Why this build works
Stopping Power is what makes the low damage workable outside Hardcore. Altered Gamer's perk guide says that perk has no effect in Hardcore, so you can spend that slot elsewhere there. Altered Gamer does not call out accuracy problems on this gun, so Grip is our suggestion rather than a fix it requests.
How to play it
Play Hardcore if you want this gun at its best, where high fire rate matters more than per-bullet damage, according to Altered Gamer. In normal modes, expect the class's large magazine to help you more than single-bullet damage.
Unlock notes
Altered Gamer gives level 16. The Steam guide lists Grip at 10 kills on LMGs.
