The Call of Duty series has had its fair share of overpowered guns over the years. From MW2\u2019s Model 1887s and MW3\u2019s Akimbo FMG-9s to dual Snakeshots in modern-day Warzone, every CoD will have one weapon that shines above them all. But those who experienced the Crossbar Hades in Black Ops 4, MW19\u2019s FiNN, or the original Chainsaw in Ghosts, will get flashbacks to a time where they\u2019d get sawed in half by a stream of bullets, no aiming required. The biggest perk of this weapon was the crossbar, an attachment that essentially removed the need to wait for ADS and allowed you to use a modified, much more accurate version of hipfire instead. It\u2019s got all the benefits of the best Akimbo combos, but with the ability to fight at longer ranges and a mag that seemed to never run out. The Crossbar Hades was a menace. And, though the Hades isn\u2019t in Black Ops 6, the crossbar is back and better than ever. This type of gun has a leg up on the competition in the latest CoD. While this iteration of the crossbar LMG isn\u2019t nearly as busted as BO4\u2019s, most of Black Ops 6\u2019s maps are extremely small. Even if it\u2019s a bit less accurate, that loss doesn\u2019t matter when all the maps you\u2019re fighting on are close-quarters, anyways. And, though Tac Stance exists with the right attachment on other guns, the crossbar\u2019s ready time is on-par with an AR or SMG with a Tactical Laser. There\u2019s pretty much no reason not to just run an LMG instead, making the XMG a top-tier gun. Combined with Black Ops 6\u2019s Omnimovement, this gun is an absolute menace in the right hands. You\u2019ll have to get the XMG all the way to weapon level 43 to give the crossbar a shot for yourself in the beta, but it\u2019s worth it. It\u2019s hard to say whether or not the XMG will be nerfed with this attachment once the beta\u2019s over, but there\u2019s a good chance Black Ops 6\u2019s full release will have more LMGs. Will we see LMGs dominate the meta? It\u2019s hard to say. For now, though, enjoy having the Black Ops 4 Hades back while you can.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Black Ops 6 beta brought back one of CoD\u2019s most notorious guns ActivisionWhile the Black Ops 6 beta has been generally well-received, there\u2019s one gun combination that\u2019s bringing back sour memories of a certain kind of LMG, one that became notorious in Black Ops 4 and CoD Ghosts for a reason.
