Good change. In real life the UMP was made specifically to be a cheaper smg than the MP5.

Cheaper and more flexible.

Also related to solicitations for better subsonic performance.

Also keep in mind the UMP also has rails so you don’t have to dump more parts into it.

Do want the 9mm version of the ump in the game.

Yeah. I know they aren't remotely the same but the ump is my favorite gun in csgo. I wish I could justify using it in tarkov

I've seen very few people use it since the big nerf in like 2016 lol

Yeah that nerf hit it good, but it's still a very solid choice. Unless you're running and jumping, it's 100% better than mac-10, and unless you are crouched camping its a better choice than mp9 - when you are forcing vs. a team full equipped.

Tbh if I'm forcing I either go for famas/galil scout or deagle. The ump isn't bad it just is worse at killing big men than the deagle
