The M249 | Shipping Forecast (Battle-Scarred) is a robust light machine gun that strikes a balance between a slower fire rate and enhanced accuracy, making it ideal for players who value precision and high ammo capacity. Its striking hydrographic design features a zodiac motif, inviting players to ponder what the future may hold.
The M249 | Shipping Forecast was first introduced to CS2 on May 26th, 2015, as part of "The Hunter and the Hunted" update.
This skin showcases a "Hydrographic" finish, where the weapon parts are dipped in a floating hydrographic film, creating a unique pattern. The primary color is a blue tint, which is influenced by the pattern index, giving it a distinctive and appealing look.
As a Battle-Scarred skin, the float value of the M249 | Shipping Forecast ranges from 0.45 to 1.00. This range indicates a significant level of wear, which affects the overall appearance of the skin.
The price of the M249 | Shipping Forecast has shown a trend of stability, remaining accessible compared to other Industrial Grade skins. Its consistent demand reflects its popularity among players.
This skin falls under the Industrial Grade rarity category, which means it is relatively common within the game. There are 49 other Machinegun skins in this rarity tier.
The M249 | Shipping Forecast is not obtainable from any containers, as it is part of The Gods and Monsters Collection. Its drop chance is categorized as a rather common occurrence in the game.
With a popularity rating of 85%, the M249 | Shipping Forecast is ranked in the top 15% of the most favored items in CS2, based on daily sales volume and pricing.
