N1ck Comeau Ahrendee Mercenaries EoN. 1034	Posted - 2013.08.20 21:39:00 - [1] - Quote [11:32:26] Breakin_Stuff will the HMG be more useful on the open maps we have? Or are we adding more CQC stuff? [11:32:57] [CCP]Wolfman not changed the HMG in 1.4 [11:33:34] Breakin_Stuff oh well, I can dream. [11:34:47] [CCP]Wolfman ok well one change [11:34:55] Breakin_Stuff Such as? [11:35:33] [CCP]Wolfman operations skill changed from heat build up reduction to recoil reduction [11:36:21] Breakin_Stuff Wait so I actually have to pay attention to my overheat, and in exchange I get to drill holes in people more accurately? [11:36:22] [CCP]Wolfman 5% a level [11:36:32] [CCP]Wolfman ya [11:36:53] Breakin_Stuff cool. now make it usable on manus peak and other open maps so I can quit forge sniping [11:37:00] [CCP]Wolfman the aiming changes will make a difference for it as well More accuracy on the hmg will make it a beast, that and aiming changes, so all in all HMG is gonna be devastating. I can already see the heavy
Bazookah Tooth The Phoenix Federation 324	Posted - 2013.08.20 21:52:00 - [2] - Quote Ought to make having an amarr sentinel suit more suitable too until the other racial suits come out. This is probably speculation, but I do know the aiming fixes will help the HMG. Hope your not pulling my leg N1ck! -bazookah (HMG for life)

I'm a heavy so i would be pulling my own leg as well. Believe me, i wouldn't justle anyones rimmies over this
Heavy Breaks No Free Pass 211	Posted - 2013.08.20 22:05:00 - [4] - Quote This very slight change is actually perfect. Full auto HMG only over heats with very few bullets left in the clip, I haven't overheated it for a couple of months that I can remember anyway. So even with 25% faster overheat it still won't make any real difference. God I hope this is real!
DUST Fiend OSG Planetary Operations Covert Intervention 5819	Posted - 2013.08.20 22:09:00 - [5] - Quote Ive never had much issue aiming with my HMG, but the overheat change is certainly welcome in my eyes.

GTA-V FTW Mannar Focused Warfare Gallente Federation 286	Posted - 2013.08.20 22:37:00 - [7] - Quote 1.4 HMG is OP, I demand a preemptive hotfix HMG nerf.
castba Penguin's March 82	Posted - 2013.08.20 22:40:00 - [8] - Quote Sounds promising.

Vitharr Foebane Blood Money Mercenaries 23	Posted - 2013.08.20 22:47:00 - [10] - Quote HMG AND armor tanking getting a buff in 1.4?! This makes me a happy fattie indeed.

Dexter307 The Unholy Legion Of DarkStar DARKSTAR ARMY 104	Posted - 2013.08.20 22:47:00 - [11] - Quote Hmg dosent really have any recoil when i use it, sounds like a nerf to me.

If it reduced spread then it will be a buff have you ever noticed your hmg moving up and down when you fire? If not you don't use it enough. If you let go off the trigger then immediately start firing again there is no recoil, you have to shoot 200+ bullets before recoil really stsrts to pull the gun up at a rate that you cant controll, but like i said this is stoped by letting go off the trigger and shooting again as fast as possible.
Scheneighnay McBob Bojo's School of the Trades 3067	Posted - 2013.08.20 23:22:00 - [16] - Quote Awesome. The HMG is the only weapon I really notice recoil with. After firing for a while, the muzzle really wants to fly.

In a straight 1v1 against a heavy, you'll get beat from the guy who's holding his trigger down and controlling the recoil for as long as possible.
Aizen Intiki Ghost Wolf Industries Alpha Wolf Pack 465	Posted - 2013.08.20 23:29:00 - [18] - Quote This seems like something Wolfman would do. He is a pretty good balancer as it seems.
Poplo Furuya Condotta Rouvenor Gallente Federation 684	Posted - 2013.08.20 23:34:00 - [19] - Quote Huh, nice. This is going to be a massive change. I wonder if Assault HMGs might actually become a mid-range option in an urban battleground? Burst is going to require more regulation but be more reliable. I really like this.
HowDidThatTaste Ancient Exiles 3510	Posted - 2013.08.20 23:36:00 - [20] - Quote I actually liked the recoil it would climb to the final headshots. Not sure if this will be a buff or not? fixing the aiming however will be nice.

In a straight 1v1 against a heavy, you'll get beat from the guy who's holding his trigger down and controlling the recoil for as long as possible. When you do it quickly the accuracy dosent decrease and it wont have much of an effect on dps since you only have to do it every 150 bullets Edit: oops, posted this with an alt
Alldin Kan TeamPlayers EoN. 523	Posted - 2013.08.21 02:27:00 - [22] - Quote DO IT CCP, MAKE AN ALREADY PREPOSTEROUSLY STRONG CQC WEAPON EVEN DEADLIER. GONNA BE GETTING EASY 30+ KILLS IN AMBUSH.

D legendary hero THE WARRIORS OF LEGEND 668	Posted - 2013.08.21 04:16:00 - [26] - Quote sure we can't change this to a spread reduction instead? when push comes to shove, the bullet spread is the biggest problem, having a more accurate HMG will make the extra DPS mean something. making it a viable alternative for heavies other than using the forgegun.

Agreed, but I wonder how much of what we think is spread loss is actually the hit detection problems they also plan to deploy with 1.4? Spread reduction here, old sharpshooter skills on my shotty, and all is well (enough, for now.) Oh, and ******* maps.
Dexter307 The Unholy Legion Of DarkStar DARKSTAR ARMY 106	Posted - 2013.08.21 04:37:00 - [28] - Quote I just dont understand why the hmg needs this nerf :( Please at least make the skill reduce spread
