thats a blatant lie, HMG does decent damage at 30 meters. you wont outgun an AR at that range but this was not the point, nor it is the heavies role. |

Dont forget it IS a minigun that the guy is toting, and a heavy weapon at that. It should have that fear about it, similarly to being hit directly by a forge. Should it be sniping out to 50 meters? no Should it be able to still do relevant DPS past 20 meters? ya
you want a weapon being able to throw 900 dps past 20 meters? whats next? shotgun swarm launcher like back in the closed beta? 
it does not matter what the guy is rotating, it might be a kitty cannon or his pen|s. there should be drawbacks to keep balance as long as it is able to throw out 900 dps sub 20m and demolish other suits like no tomorrow.
forge gun is not an argument, it is viewed as OP by the majority of the community and obviously there is something wrong with the weapon. it is hard to balance though. |

the reason is to provide 900 dps sub 20 meters. heavy is boss with the new released buildings cause there are alot of chokepoints. |
