Does anyone else feel the UAC5 jams too often? I ran 2xUAC5 on the Firebrand, but ended up switching to 2xAC5. Though the ultra shot faster, I would get 2-5 shots before one jammed. so I'd typically be out of a damage source after only dispensing 50DMG (hoping for 100% accuracy). With the slower AC5s, I at least know I'll have the source for a longer period, and just have to time my shots better.

I understand the nerf to the UAC is that it jams, I just feel it occurred far too often for it to be a reliable weapon.

Being new to MW, was this the case in previous games?

I rather they made the UAC5 shoot slower, and lower the jam rate some.

The UAC5 is the weapon I have done the most damage with in this game, both in a 3 UAC5/3 MLas Ilya and a 2 UAC5/2 AC2 'Phract 4. The potential for blowing someone apart in seconds is mitigated beautifully by the "Oh nuts...fire...please fire...OMG FIRE! ah crap..." potential and it makes for more fun, not less. :)

The UAC5 is designed to deliver insane damage, but it's built to reload so damn fast that it's always hovering on the edge of disaster for the pilot who relies on it. It's a weapon made for a gunslinger; if it doesn't fail on him he wins and if it fails he either runs like hell or he dies. That's perfect for me.
