The Heavy suit is fine the HMG is great in 1 situation the combination of the two makes it laughable.
I read thread after thread saying the HMG is is in a great place. Yes after the months of absolute crap its better.

To say its balanced? To what? Rifles got a huge range buff, and we all know like half the frickin map range.

But HMG's got their actual cone of fire back to what it was always supposed to be, and we are saying oh the HMG is great now?

I can say playing a heavy for an entire pub match is like wearing huge weights around your ankles and wearing such dark glasses you can only see 40-50meters in front of you with a great big old sign that says shoot me here in my balloon head I'm a big target. Great stay in your hallway mole, you are right where you should be, says the rifle players.

I applaud any heavy that can say they dominate, much respect. However i can dominate you with my rifle 98% of the time in your cqc optimal range, if I can't I can run away and drop a hive and stay out of your range, and if you happen to show your Zeppelin head out of the dark hallway and try to run to another location I can pick you off from way far away and giggle as you turn around like a dog that has poo stuck on its tail, looking around in hopes that you could actually fire back at me.

Heavy HMG can not dictate their optimal fight zone every other suit can dicatate how they own you, or just plain out wait you.

Is the HmG powerful in CQC yes. Is it fun to play against ranged rifles on most of the maps? You decide? I prefer smashing heavies in cqc being able to run away if need be, able to drop a hive to repairs/reload/RE's@uplinks and just plain have a smaller hit box.

As a die hard heavy/HMG player it is completely out classed in every way since aim assist and TTK were introduced.

Lol I can lie too.

Why I have I never seen you in a match let alone PC?
