M4 Custom Vs M4 Custom Crystal?

Heya folks of the forum,
I'm starting this thread as to get some opinions regarding the M4 custom-crystal, and the regular M4-Custom.
(I apologise if this has been asked before).

On the custom crystal, it's described as being "more stable" than the regular custom and as such I was wondering if there is, in fact,
any noticeable difference in performance/spray patterns/dmg etc between the two.

Those who do own both, if you could comment with your opinions and or experiences that would be brill!


Personally, I reckon the fire rate on the regular is a little faster, but the spray pattern/recoil not as tight?
Has anyone else seen this or can point me to a direct comparison vid of some kind?

Kind regards,
M

  • I received the original M4A1-Custom Crystal in early 2010, a good year before it was actually released. We did a few tests, tried it out, and we could not find any differences. That was six years ago, I don't know if they'd changed some of its stats during that time.



    Talking about the weapon description, well, there's many descriptions that claim a certain weapon has superior powers over the basic version. We tried them, and most of them have the same stats. For example, MP7-A claims to have armor piercing bullets - Same damage as the normal MP7. Or the AK47-St.-Patricks Day - Claims to have the luck of the Irish, yet I still don't have any better luck at Black Market *cough*
  • Way back then I noticed that the M4 Custom Crystal has somewhat a faster ROF than reg M4 silenced and M4 custom. Only a personal notion of course.

    Yeah these were my initial thoughts, too. :)
    It's nice to have a confirmation though - so I can tell my imagination to stop blaming the guns, rather than my performance! xD

    I heard that the only thing you could do to increase that luck would be to join a certain society that goes by a triangle symbol with an eye in it....
    OR to offer up 1000 "Free VIB" players up as a sacrifice to the workers at Z8...just a rumour....

    Ohh dayum, seems like I've been following the wrong secret society for ages...
  • Wiki says this:
    "One of the major characteristics about the M4A1-Custom Crystal is the firing rate, which has been increased, compared to another variant of M4A1-Custom."

    I don't know if this is true, but having used both I think it might be right.

    It is I used to play with it before I quit this joke of a game
  • i find m4 cc to have a bigger recoil then m4 custom or a bit much harder to control on spray and it's skin affects a bit my game play.because it's a bit shiny.don't like shiny things.
  • Back in 2012/13 we tested them it and the M4-CC had a faster rate of fire, but didn't HS at long range with 1 shot. Don't know if they changed it, but they feel the same to me.
  • I own both and I just prefer using the regular version instead, I feel as if the M4A1-C-Crystal is a bit harder to control on the recoil.

    M4 cc migh be faster but custom more stable
  • The Custom rate of fire is 10 rounds per second while the Custom Crystal is 11. I don't recall the point blank damage of the CC but its damage drops off significantly with range.
  • I have played with both and I think that the normal M4 Custom is much better than the CC. I dont know why but the ammos from CC are hopping a bit..its more difficult to kill the enemies.

    I like M4 gold most muhaha:D
