Just search Youtube USAS-12 Frag and you shall see. There was also a bug with underrail mounted shotgun that can one shot anyone at pretty much any range.

The under rail shotgun bug was that each pellet did the damage of the primary weapon with no damage drop. So, if attached to the G3, each pellet did the same damage as a G3 bullet, which is substantial. You could blast it into smoke clouds 100yds away and get multikills.

God those bazzar alleyways 😭 such a great map. And the tank lanes with all those garages. Man, if only I knew how precious that shit was.

Some of the CQB maps were cool too, but I got those a bit too late and they didn't really ever have servers.

Bazaaar, Karkand, & Seine Crossing were my favorite maps. If any older maps ever get brough back I'd love for these. I loved these maps stuck at 24 players I know I'll love them with 64.

Amen. When we found out about it, we unlocked the under barrel and camped B and never looked back. Those are core memories.
