The ACR 6.8 is a weapon appearing as an assault rifle in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, and as a marksman rifle in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3[]

It was first shown at the end of the Call of Duty ELITE trailer. Later, the ACR 6.8 was also seen with a mounted Holographic Sight held by Sandman, in an Amazon pre-order wallpaper.

Campaign[]

The ACR is a rare weapon in the campaign, used by Derek "Frost" Westbrook only in the mission "Scorched Earth" equipped with a Hybrid Sight. Other friendly and enemy NPCs never carry one, and there is no way of receiving extra ammo for the weapon, though it has a high amount of reserve ammunition to compensate for this.

Multiplayer[]

The ACR 6.8 is unlocked at Level 50.

At any range short of twenty meters, the ACR 6.8 will deal 45 damage, needing three shots to kill. Damage decreases linearly until 37.5 meters. At any range past 37.5 meters, the ACR 6.8 will deal thirty damage per bullet, needing four shots to kill. The ACR 6.8 has a three shot kill range of 34 meters. The ACR 6.8 is a one shot kill at all ranges in Hardcore game types. The ACR 6.8 deals 40% extra damage on a headshot. This can reduce the number of shots needed to kill by one at any range, with most ranges only needing a single headshot for this effect to be achieved. The ACR 6.8 has medium penetration power.

The ACR 6.8 fires fully automatically, with a fire rate of 705 RPM.

the ACR 6.8 has recoil values of 50 to the left and 50 to the right. The ACR 6.8 has no downwards recoil value. the ACR 6.8 kicks upwards with every shot, with a recoil value of either 30 or 35. The ACR 6.8 has a centerspeed value of 1350.

The ACR 6.8 allows users to move at up to 90% of the base movement speed, or strafe at 36% of the base movement speed. The ACR 6.8 allows users to aim down the sights in 300 milliseconds, and the ACR 6.8's hip-fire spread is average. The ACR 6.8's reload animation is 1.9 seconds long, or 2.5 seconds long on an empty magazine. In either case, the user can Reload Cancel after 1.1 seconds.

The ACR 6.8 has a magazine capacity of thirty rounds, and a starting ammo loadout of ninety rounds.

The ACR 6.8 has the standard assortment of assault rifle attachments and weapon proficiencies available. All attachments and proficiencies work as expected on the ACR 6.8.

In the Infected mode "Knife vs. Barrett", the first infected player is given an ACR 6.8 with Silencer and Red Dot Sight, in order to help them kill the first enemy. After another player is infected, however, the ACR 6.8 will change to a USP .45 with a Tactical Knife and no ammunition, and the ACR 6.8 can not be used for the remainder of the game. However, if all of the Infected players leave the match, another player will be selected as the Infected, and will receive the ACR 6.8 again to help kill the first enemy.

Special Ops[]

The ACR 6.8 is available for both Survival and Mission modes.

Mission Mode[]

The ACR 6.8 is a starting weapon in the Mission Mode levels "Stay Sharp" and "Black Ice". In "Stay Sharp", it is bare, while in "Black Ice", it has a Holographic Sight equipped. If playing on co-op, the gunner will have access to the ACR 6.8 while driving to the base.

Survival Mode[]

The ACR 6.8 is available in Survival Mode at level 14 and costs $3000. It is a starting weapon on Off Shore, with an ACOG Scope and an Underbarrel Shotgun.

The ACR 6.8 is used by commando troops in later waves, which allows the player to scavenge their ammunition after killing them. The ACR 6.8 is a solid overall weapon in Survival because of its low recoil and rather high damage, which makes it effective at all ranges. As with all weapons, it is advised to go for headshots in later waves to speed up killing time and to save ammo.

Trivia[]

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3[]

  • It is one of a few weapons in the game to have Remington, the weapon's manufacturer, written cursively on the side of the weapon.
  • In the Survival Mode Trailer, it used the same Create-a-Class image from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2.
  • Weapon camouflage is not applied to the stock, with the exception of Gold Camouflage.
  • In the Campaign, when equipped with the Hybrid Sight, the rear sight is missing but when equipped in Multiplayer, the sight is just folded backwards.
  • In the Modern Warfare 3 Special Ops survival trailer, it is possible to see that Red Dot Sight model from Modern Warfare 2 is used on the ACR.
  • The breaching animation when using the ACR is different to all other weapons, as seen in the spec ops mission "Black Ice". The player will not lower their weapon and instead will keep it raised after placing the Breaching Charge.
  • In the Create-a-Class image, the iron sight is folded down.
