PDW-57

"Fully automatic personal defense weapon. Increased range and largest ammo capacity in its class."

- Create-A-Class Description.

The PDW-57 is a Submachine Gun that has a 50 round magazine and is fully automatic. It is unlocked at Level 4, as soon as the player unlocks Create-a-Class. The time to kill is the lowest in the category as it only takes 3 bullets to kill at close range (excluding headshot multipliers) and is tied with the MSMC in this regard, though handling characteristics are in favor of the MSMC with lower recoil and a faster reload time (-0.2sec from the PDW-57). Given that it has the lowest recoil (bar the MSMC), the highest magazine capacity, high damage and an early unlock, it is a highly effective weapon in multiplayer which is reflected in its popularity amongst players. It has a lower fire rate than most of the other SMGs' in exchange for generally higher damage and accuracy.

''Note that with the 1.04 patch, the recoil of the PDW-57 has slightly increased. This also counts towards the MSMC.''
