This is merely a cosmetic upgrade as the camouflaged weapons change depending on the environment (arctic camo in arctic maps, woodland camo in woodland/jungle maps, and desert camo in desert maps). However, the DLC does add four new weapons with no further unlock requirements: the [[M16A2 SA]] , the [[UMP-45|UMP-45 SA]], the [[MG3|MG3 SA]] and the [[M95|M95 SA]]. All of the weapons added perform identically to their non-SA counterparts, with the only difference being their camouflage - except in the case of the M95 where the process is reversed as the original M95 had camouflage and the SA variant is in a black finish instead. |
