The main problem is the fact that besides the Forge Gun, a CQC weapon is the only thing heavies have.
Do not ask to buff the HMG, simply demand that CCP releases heavy weapons.
(From my experience)
-HAND
Shouldn't the roles of and HMG be squad support.... how can a heavy support their squad at 20m?

-HAND Shouldn't the roles of and HMG be squad support.... how can a heavy support their squad at 20m? More Weapons. Which Is what I'm saying. If we buff the HMG, then what happens when mid-range heavy weapons come out? Then you will just have a heavy version of the current Assualt Rifle. And I think we can all agree that we don't want that.
Well admittedly I have never liked the current chaingun iteration of HMG.
Where are the squad assault/ support weapons? FUTURISTIC SAW, Type 88, or Pulse Machine Guns?
I would. Make AR 30 rounds max.
31 for Minmatar
30 for Gallente
24 for Caldari
21 for Amarr
Make HMG or LMG varients with large magazines. Simple.

If they could extend the optimal range to 50m, which isn't that big of a buff, the HMG would be a viable weapon. How am I supposed to suppress enemies when you can't even hit them? No. The HMG does not need more range. It needs to be more effective within its current range.
SQUAD SUPPORT WEAPON!

What I'm trying to say is that the HMG should remain as a CQC weapon and give us more heavy weapons. The Gallente Heavy Weapon will be shorter range than the HMG. The Amarr Laser cannon will have a longer range. I hope the Amarr laser weapon is not a simple re-incarnation of the normal laser rifle. But what scares me most about Amarr heavy weapons is the fact that they are just now being created, even though Amarr heavy dropsuits have been the only heavies in the entire game for months now.
And you know they will be built around heat management and overheat damage.
