>hasn't been in a CoD since BO Cold War (2020)>the most recent game to feature this gun is Atomic Heart (2023)Is the AK-47 dying? Why is this happening?
>>726060572Some guntuber larpers did mud tests and the AK didnt do so hot so every numale collectively shifted their NPC opinion to the AK being inferior to every other gub(if you shove thick mud directly into the barrel and receiver)
>>726060775Seething slavaboo. Now say your next preprogrammed line.
>>726060572It's in CS2 and that's the only game where it matters.
>>726060572>ak47Because it's a dead gun. Most AK's you see IRL are AKMs or AK74s.
>>726060572stolker 2
>>726060572Same reason you don't see any irl weapons in vidya anymore. Copyright jews>"But the russians don't give a fuck!">"But fair use!"Devs are still too afraid to risk a lawsuit
>>726061569That's why I say "Kalashnikov".I'm never technically wrong, and thus stupid.
>>726061175Muh SKS
>>726061569Yea, how many non-Africa tier countries are still running 7.62 ak’s?
>>726060572Replaced by its modern counterparts. In early 00s vidya AK47 was still culturally a famous weapon due to stuff like yugo wars (though serbs used their own variation but it's very similar looking) and IRA.
>>726061921>Yea, how many non-Africa tier countries are still running 7.62 ak’s?At least one
>>726061569Most AK-47's you see in games are AKMs.The fact is they're nowhere near as prominent in any currently relevant martial force, so they don't really have a place in pop culture that isn't depicting a historical setting

>>726060775the ak 47 was alwaus the poor men's rifle, it was made to be cheap and plentiful to distribute to insurgents around the world
>>726062958>it was made to be cheap and plentiful to distribute to insurgents around the worldNo, it was made to be wielded by disposable Red Army conscripts, who lived in shitty, freezing conditions.And the OG Type 1-3 milled receiver rifles were anything but "cheap", but there was no "money" or "ownership" in the USSR, so shit got made none the less. It wasn't until the AKM, the stamped receiver variant, that costs - or rather speed of manufacturing, were improved tremendously.The "AK" was cheap only because the Soviet machine kept manufacturing truckloads of them, every day.
>>726063481>No, it was made to be wielded by disposable Red Army conscripts, who lived in shitty, freezing conditions.i think it was made to kill nazis
>>726060572>the most recent game to feature this gun is Atomic Heart (2023)It appeared in the Escape From Duckov, and MGS3 Delta. They're also a-plenty in Tarkov, that just got 1.0 release.
>>726063582Literally 5 years late for that party.
>>726060572Any country that has real infrastructure and logistics is adopting an AR or AR derivative. Even China's new rifle is basically just an HK416 clone with a Chinese knockoff silhouette. From w hat they've shown off from testing modernized AKs like the AK-12, etc. captured in Ukraine, they fall quite a bit short trying to replicate the modularity and reliability of the AR platformThe AK is basically for poor countries. It's what you'd see Somalian pirates or generic nondescript middle eastern terrorists using as they get gunned down by Navy SEALs burning millions of dollars just to get across a city block.Honestly considering BO6's multiplayer "story" is two CIA black ops teams fighting each other and it being set in 1991/1992 after the dissolution of the USSR and none of plot involves Russia, one wonders why there are so many Russian guns in its selection anyway outside of the few missions in the Gulf War and the fake Vietnam flashback.The biggest challenge facing weapon artists for shooters is basically how long the AR family has continued to live and be utilized despite attempts to replace it, and how do you make the M4/HK416/MCX look different every time?
>>726064445>set in 1991/1992 after the dissolution of the USSR and none of plot involves Russia, one wonders why there are so many Russian guns in its selection anywayBecause nations used them for decades after the USSR broke down, some rear guard secondary units still wield them to this day, and shittons of them were manufactured before that.Seriously, AK is THE most popular assault rifle in the world. And the AR itself is nearly as old, no matter what the zoomies and fudds think. Just before the Corona and Ukraine boogaloo, AKs, SKS'es and Mosins we also THE poorfag guns to get if you were a civvie range operator.
>>726060572>import restrictions on foreign guns and ammo>end of cheap AK's from abroad; it's a hipster/boomer gun now>not a lot of U.S. made 7.62x39 to fill that gap>U.S. made AK's are bad>end of the Cold War and GWOT means they are no longer the scary "bad guy" gun that shows up in the news and action movies.>a $500 AR is a better gun in almost every way and is readily available to people living in non-cuck states.I kinda want to get one for shits and giggles, but I feel like I would be wasting my money.
>>726065483>be Kike>make AK with different caliber>pretend like you invented it, patent it and make shekels selling it to FinlandHitler was right
>>726060572im pretty certain this is in black ops 6 anon.
>>726060572And when will you realise the over-whelmingly vast majority of "AK-47"s actually aren't AK-47s, whether it's movies or vidya.
