The MP5 returns to Far Cry New Dawn.
Far Cry New Dawn[]
Rusty MP5
| « | This submachine aged well, but it's older on the inside. | » |
The Rusty MP5 is the first Submachine Gun acquired by the player. It's a Rank 1 weapon and quickly becomes of little use. Perhaps due to its decayed nature, the reload is noticeably longer than normal.
Optimized MP55D
| « | A reliable submachine gun with a suppressor. Suppression, oppression, depression, take your pick. | » |
The Optimized MP55D is the second Submachine gun aquired by the player. It's a Rank 3 weapon optimized for stealth, though deals a reasonably high amount of damage. it sports a Graffiti-like mix of black and silver paint, and has a suppressor on the end of its barrel.
Trivia[]
- The MP5 is tied with the Desert Eagle for most appearances as a usable weapon in the franchise, being available in every game and spinoff except for Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon and Far Cry Primal.
- The MP5 has a notch that allows you to lock the bolt rearwards in order to insert magazines more easily. However, the player does not use this in-game.
- Judging by the trigger group (safe-semi-auto) and collapsible stock, the MP5SD in Far Cry is the MP5SD3 variant.
- Though in the game they share the same ammunition, in real-life the MP5 and P90 fire very different calibers, firing 9x19mm NATO and 5.7x28mm, respectively.
- The basic rear iron sight is not a standard Heckler & Koch drum sight, but is instead a semi-circle notch that lines up with the correct full circle front sight. This iron sight is shared with the F1.
- The MP5's charging handle moves back and forth when shooting; this is untrue to real life.
