For players who prefer sniping over up close and personal fights, Signal 50 is one of the earliest and most ideal snipers to try out in Modern Warfare 2. Featuring one of the highest stopping powers in CoD MW2, the Signal 50 is unrivaled when it comes to holding long-range angles.
Unlocking the Signal 50 sniper rifle is pretty straightforward and easy in MW2. You don’t need to level up any weapon platform to gain access to Signal 50.
Simply reach level 20 on your military ranks and Signal 50 will be available to use for your custom loadouts.
If you are looking to try out your hand at sniping in MWII, we have prepared some highly useful class setups for Signal 50 which can alleviate your sniping experience.
Best Signal 50 loadout
Signal 50 is a 50cal sniper rifle and as such this class capitalizes on its long-range capabilities. You can chill from long distances while picking your enemies off one by one.
The attachments can also help make this class lethal, especially the silencer which reduces range a bit, but players won’t know where they’re getting shot at from.
With the help of the right attachment, Signal 50 can be made one of the hard-hitting riffles in Warzone 2. This loadout support run and gun style to be more mobile in the game.
Attachments
- Barrel: 21.5” Fluted Fifty
- Optic: Sightmax Clear Shot
- Muzzle: Nilsound 90 Silencer
- Comb: Aim Assist 406
- Rear Grip: Stalwart Grip
Best secondary weapon
The Lachman Sub is great as a secondary weapon as it is one of the best SMGs in Warzone 2. This weapon is best for close-quarter combat and is best paired with the Signal 50 which is a long-range weapon.
Best perks and equipment
The perks really amplify its viability in terms of long-range effectiveness. The ability to carry two weapons will always work out to your advantage. This is why Overkill is the best pick as the base perk.
Artillery and grenades of any kind when exploded can cause a lot of damage on the battlefield. The flash, stun, EMP, and Gas Grenades damage effect will be reduced to nil when Battle Hardened.
It’s best to know exactly where you can get ambushed or flanked from so using the portable radar as a field upgrade. Locating the enemy by pinging it is another perk of using the Portable Radar.
Using a Claymore as a lethal will help you cover the angles that you simply cannot cover in case someone decides to backstab you. Smoke grenades can of course help with staying hidden so use those as your tactical.
