What is the Best SMG in XDefiant? | (Full SMG Stat Comparison)

While XDefiant does a solid job of displaying many of the weapon stats in-game, they don't show everything and it can be hard to directly compare guns so today, I wanted to share a full breakdown and comparison of all of the SMGs in the game (without attachments). What are your best SMGs so far in XDefiant?

They've done such a good job with balancing the weapons in this game. The only real problem I've seen wrong with it is the snipers not having flinch.

Subscriber count going up again after covering XDefiant. It’s not easy to cover multiple games, but Ace, I’d rather get XDefiant info from you over another channel exclusively covering it

[HugeBigness]

XDefiant is for me the best online MP FPS I have played in YEARS

[Hutchyy]

Must be cool when Ace is doing testing and finds a weird outlier like the P90 aim walking speed

[cobaltcardsgaming]

It seems like the P90 is just generally better out of the box than the MP5. Maybe give the base MP5 a 15% or so range boost? That’d help make it the slightly slower firing but more versatile at midrange SMG compared to the others. Either that or make it like the M4 where it has the fastest base ADS speed.

Ace, can you breakdown “Recoil Recovery” in a future video?

[toofastfoyo]

I like that there's a more real range benefit to using an AR at range

[MrrNacho]

Im having a blast with this game, i love the simplicity of it. Pick a gun get a handfull of attachments pick a character and off you go, it brings me such old school cod vibes i which i love.
I hope and i really really hope that the devs keep it simple, fast paced small to medium size maps, and just a few attachments per category on each gun.
I dont wanna have to go through an essay looking at my gun stats when choosing an attachment

[keyshawnbogard]

Can’t wait for shotguns cause some how I’m getting more hit markers then kills in close quarters

[x-tothe-k]

Thank you Ace for all the amazing stat work you do! I love always being able to come back to your channel and learn as much as I can, you’ve been doing such fantastic work since Ghosts!

[Ralexxanderr]

Another banger of a video. Looking forward to seeing some of your attachment combos.

[foxdrags]

I watched you back when I played cod, now I’m back for xdefiant, so glad you’re covering it thank you!

[rambostallone]

Ive been subscribed to your channel for long time and i apreciate every video..thank for your videos

[MuscledRMHv]

The more I play xDefiant the more it sucks me in to play just one more game. It feels like I have to tryhard sometimes but it also feels like I can tryhard in a relaxing way because of matchmaking. It has some issues and room for improvement but if they pull off proper support it gas a place in the FPS scene for sure

[decoyfox]

Keep that xdefiant content coming ace!

[zaidkidwai]

I love that with XDefiant, I can pick up any gun and have a great game.

[MuscledRMHv]

I would love to see them add an AK74u, UMP45, PP90M1 and Uzi / MAC10 to the game as SMGs. For ARs I would love to see the FAMAS.

Hey Ace, I think you should strongly consider automatically filtering out any comments that use emojis. 25 minutes after posting like 1/3 of the comments on this video are bot accounts with pornographic profile pictures, and theyre all using emojis in their obviously spam comments having nothing to do with the video.

GamersNexus and other large channels use these types of filters for this exact reason, and as a youtube OG I'm pretty sure they would share their filter list with you.

[trocoplaytv]

You're awesome for this! I wish games laid things out as clearly in the stats as you do in your videos. I would love if you clarified some of the wording with attachments. Things like ads stability for example.

I know that would take alot of time so i get it if its not prioritized but id love if at some point that video comes out in the distant future at'least! Thanks for the videos :)

XDefiant is growing on me. Imagine how it'll look it 5 years.
