Glock-18 is a machine pistol featured in CrossFire.

Overview[]

Glock-18 is a Burst Fire pistol that deals low damage in its class and is lower than the M9 pistol with higher recoil compared to other pistols which make this pistol unpopular. Its main feature is its ability to switch between 3-round burst mode and semi-automatic mode. This gun has the third largest magazine in the Pistol class (Behind PMR 30 and OTs-23 Drotik) and fourth-largest among the Secondary weapons (Behind MAC-10, PMR-30, and OTs-23), making it useful to fend off mutants. It's also very light because this gun is made of a polymer frame which is common for Glock pistols.

This gun was a basic weapon in CF China besides USP and M16 before being replaced by a new basic weapon pack.

Trivia[]

  • Glock-18 is a fully automatic handgun in real life. The most likely reason that makes it a burst-fire pistol in CrossFire is because CF is heavily influenced by Counter-Strike where the Glock-18 features a 3-round burst pistol. This trait has been corrected with the newest variant starting from the Glock-18-G Spirit onwards.
    • Also, the only difference of this weapon has it's own firing noise.
    • Strangely, the Beretta M9 also the firing noise is taken from Glock-18's weapon counterpart on Counter-Strike.
  • This Glock-18 has a heat ventilation hole near the edge of its front slide (can be seen in the first person), which makes it appear as a Glock-18C.
    • According to the law of firearms, guns with heat ventilation holes should have a lighter recoil instead since the ventilation system helps to quickly cool down the barrel. Illogically, however, this doesn't appear on Glock-18 in the game.
  • In CF Philippines, this handgun was once available in the GP Black Market before being removed and one of the earliest weapons featured in the GP Black Market capsule.
    • This gun is also obtainable by completing the Elite Badge for 5 pcs. crate.
  • When playing as GR side with a male character, this gun (along with RPK-Gold) will showing the wrong texture of the characters' arms. It's the male BL's HUD model but still, use the GR's texture.
    • Years later, this issue was finally fixed after an update.
  • In some Switcher-Special artworks, she can be seen wielding two Glock 18s with a 33-round magazine. In real life, Glock-18 is mostly fed with this magazine due to its extreme rate of fire (in full auto, though 10, 17, 19-round magazine can be used).
  • This is the first pistol that features a toggleable firing mode. The default mode is always set on semi-automatic while burst-fire is optional.
  • After a recent patch in CF Vietnam, its burst-shot firing rate has been nerfed, with delaying about ~1s after each burst-shoot before can be fired again.
