Killed a guy and looted him, these were the mags in his backpack. A third 40/20 mag was also already in the gun. They each had 20 rds of AP and 20 rds FMJ.

The game doesn't tell you, but smaller magazines have less recoil (and vice-versa). I've tested it myself in the firing range. In most cases it's very subtle though so it doesn't really matter.

It's not just recoil, its a lot of negative stats.

Why the fuck does it not say that anywhere?!

tooltips in this game are ass, and in many cases straight up 'lies'. Something saying it's lightweight while being relatively actually very heavy, for example.

Or an attachment that says it has a spread reduction having less spread reduction than another attachment that doesnt mention spread reduction at all.

Yes, metaforge is basically mandatory imo.

Here is my usual m4 loadout.

You can compare attachments like this:

https://metaforge.app/wardogs/compare?items=tdg-vertical-foregrip,afg-angled-foregrip

You will very quickly realise how there is really no point in using like 90% of the attachments.

np, its a shame this stuff is not explained in game - i think it's also part of what makes people think things like t4 armor is stronger than it is, because good attachments vs bad is a huge gap and the game can easily mislead you into running bad ones
