Light Machine Guns needs to be Nerfed

You know a gun is overpowered when over 95% of the user base of the game uses Light Machine Guns.

 

If you check the kill log all you see is light machine guns.

 

When you get killed, its always LMG.

 

 

Now, how are these weapons Overpowered?

 

1) Too Accurate. People with machine guns don't even need to aim, all they do is spray and get headshots from other side of the map without aiming.

 

2) Too much damage. When a LMG does more damange then shotgun points blank, something is wrong.

 

3) Too little Recoil. There isn't barely any recoil on LMG!!! *****!

 

4) Too large magazine. When a gun have low damage you understand having a large magazine, but when a gun damage is very high with very high re-fire rate, you need to reduce damage, accuracy and add recoil

 

5) Too fast Reload.

 

6) Spray and Kill. Really? Try shooting a LMG from crouch not moving! Try it!

 

 

 

Nearly everyone just uses starter LMG with Handgrip and they are set spraying and getting headshots and kills without aiming. You don't even need any skills in LMG to be overpowered.

 

 

When you have a gun like KP5 (Valor SMG) which is 30 bullets only and a pea shooter with very low damage, you know something is wrong when a 100 bullet high damage super accuracy guns are avaiable.

 

 

 

LMG needs to be tuned in compared to other guns. You cannot denie the fact they are overpowered. The usage of the gun speaks for itself.

Re: Light Machine Guns needs to be Nerfed

It WAS overpowered and everyone used them. Now they got nerfed and everyone uses them because they are used to them. Using other guns just feels odd, but it's not because they are overpowered. I just like them. 

 

Although now that i vetted to sver i'm using a AS. Why? Well because I have already 1k kills with a LMG, now it's time to finish my AS.

I know LMG where nerfed, but when I can kill people half way across the map with LMG. No skills in LMG (Stability and Hand Grip) while running in less then a second on multiple occasions, something is wrong.

If that's the case then they're not overpowered, you're just really good with them. That's not normal...

Re: Light Machine Guns needs to be Nerfed

Just because alot of people use a certain gun doesnt mean its overpowered, is the XM8 overpowered in BFBC2?, is the SCAR-H overpowered in MW2, no they are just good alrounders. I use an assault rifle if i'm attacking and a LMG if i'm defending and i can tell you that apart from maybe very close range the assault rifle is the better gun, the reason why myself and probably everybody else uses an LMG is because of the security of not having to reload evertime you kill someone so simply i think the reason they are so common is due to their big mags not their stats.

Re: Light Machine Guns needs to be Nerfed

I also used the LMG because even when I was attacking i'm always a crowd controller. I don't go for the objectives. I push beyond them and make a stand so people can take the objective and I lay down the LAW! Usually that gives people enough time to capture the objective, reload and If i'm lucky...respwans have time to head back and defend the captured objective. 

 

For my style the LMG is the best choice by far. If you are purely attacking...AS are better in my opinion, but as I said..I'm always "defending" even when attacking.

 When a LMG user can kill a whole squad headshotting everyone without aiming alone, you know something is wrong.

Re: Light Machine Guns needs to be Nerfed

Headshotting without aiming is called 'blind luck' no matter what gun your using.

Re: Light Machine Guns needs to be Nerfed

leave the LMG the frig alone, it is fine, it did used to be overpowered as may have said (although you dont seem to be listening or you dont agree) but it is fine now, you can still kill at distance but it now requires either blind luck or alot of burst fire to keep recoil down and shots grouped. there is now a definate difference in accuracy between the LMG and AR. i use both of these depending on what mood im in or what map i am playing.
