Hood Warfare 2 Guns and Weapons
There are seven primary guns. You start with the Choppa (an AK), and the rest unlock as your reputation level goes up: Uzi at level 5, AKM at 8, .308 Sniper at 10, Pump Shotty at 15, Oldhead at 20 and Mac-10 at 28. Your secondary is a Glock.
Every Hood Warfare 2 gun and its unlock level
| Gun | Type | Unlocks at |
|---|---|---|
| Choppa | Assault rifle (an AK) | Start |
| Uzi | Submachine gun | Level 5 |
| AKM | Assault rifle | Level 8 |
| .308 Sniper | Sniper rifle | Level 10 |
| Pump Shotty | Shotgun | Level 15 |
| Oldhead | Marksman rifle (DMR) | Level 20 |
| Mac-10 | Submachine gun | Level 28 |
Names and unlock levels are read from the game's loadout menu in launch-week gameplay by Legends6K, where he also calls the Choppa an AK and the Oldhead a DMR. Unlock levels can change in updates.
Your full loadout
Besides the primary gun, a loadout has a secondary, a melee weapon, a lethal and a passive ability. Here's what each slot held at launch:
| Slot | Options |
|---|---|
| Primary | The seven guns above |
| Secondary | Glock |
| Melee | Blade (a knife) |
| Lethal | Grenade or claymore |
| Passive | HP, Utility, Speed or Ammo |
A new player starts with the Choppa, a Glock, a grenade and the +HP passive. The passive names come from the loadout menu in the same video. We haven't seen the in-game description of each one yet, so we won't guess at exact numbers.
Attachments, skins and how unlocks work
| What you unlock | How |
|---|---|
| Guns and equipment | Raise your reputation level by playing matches |
| Attachments | Complete weapon challenges for each gun |
| Skins | Get kills with each gun |
The store page lists sights, magazines, grips, suppressors and other attachments. Official screenshots show gold-finish guns, and a player has already shown off a gold mastery camo.
Which gun should you use?
Trapstar Games hasn't published damage or fire-rate stats, so this is practical advice rather than data:
- Stick with the Choppa at first. You have it from the start, and attachments come from that gun's own challenges, so switching guns every match slows you down.
- Uzi or Mac-10 for small maps. The developer says fights on small maps like Supermarket end fast, which suits submachine guns.
- .308 Sniper or Oldhead for long sightlines. Snipers aren't useless indoors, either: one player went 31-3 with a sniper on Chicago Mall.
- Pump Shotty for room-to-room fights in the mall and around houses.
