Why not?

Maybe he's bored of only using 2 weapons.

And the HMG is teribad, I wouldn't even use it over a light weapon in most cases.

Its not teribad! Its just not a noob tube like it used to be

Okay now your just trolling.

The HMG has the reticule of a shotgun, but the mechanic of a Laser Rifle. And this has been proven in a YouTube video.

When you have terrible strafing speeds, and a weapon that covers most of the screen, it becomes terribly underpowered.

When you are using the HMG, you can be out DPS'd by practically any automatic rifle in the game. Heck even I can cut enemies down with my [Starter] Medic's Militia Assault Rifle faster than I can with my Prototype HMG.

Just imagine aiming a Laser Rifle in CQC. But with the reticule if a shotgun.

Heck, the fact that it even has a reticule like a shotgun shows that it's not supposed to perform the way it is.

TL;DR Go back to COD

If you put a side arm weapon in that heavy slot you would use a side arm damage mod. "The Ancient Templars will guard fearlessly the people, the land and the heavens of the empire."

Heavys are for heavy weapons No. They aren't. Back at the very start of this game they set up all the weapon slots so that they cascade. Unless you're saying there's also something wrong with carrying an SMG in your Light slot, stop rage-vomiting about Heavies.

Harry Kahones Children of Ares 7	Posted - 2013.12.07 17:57:00 - [16] - Quote I actually switch between scr and hmg. It depends on the map. If I'm to engage the enemy at long distances then I go with scr. If I have a good place to defend I go with hmg. I'm just ready for the hmg to not be broken or for new heavy weapons to come out. Then I'll only use heavy weapons. Till then I'm switching back and forth. I'm shy at first but I do creepy and uncomfortable things once I know you
