WAW is worse (balance wise) than MW3 because in WAW each weapon class (excluding MGs and shotguns) have a "best" weapon: SMGs have the MP40, rifles have M1A1 and the occasional STG, bolt action has PTRS or the occasional Springfield. Based on their stats they are better in most respects than the others in their class. Theres also the weapons that are basically outclassed in every way such as the SVT compared to the Gewher. Plus, MP40 in general makes the game nearly unplayable
