Takes the same amount of bursts to overheat, but DPS was doubled.
Seems legit.

Seems legit. Damage per burst was reduced making overheat more likely. Interesting, can you tell that to the proto heavy I downed with two bursts?

Your evidence is strong however I must point out that damage per round has been decreased about 15% @ pro) yet the number of rounds per burst (45) has not changed. Alright, look at it this way.
It does more damage per burst than a shotgun blast.
It has far more range.
Can fire again way faster.
And it can have around 6-7 bursts before overheat, compared to the shotgun clip of 8.
It's just an upgraded shotgun.

Overall I agree the burst HMG is better, as it should be. Heavy suit=a bit crap and heavy weapon=beast is the magic formula for making heavies actually use heavy weapons.
Don't think that 1500~ eHP, and being one kin cat away from Assault speed, and laughing off explosives, can be considered bad.
They have their pros and cons, I don't think heavy weapons should be nearly as insane as they are now.

It always took out light frames with 1 burst, which 50% of the community runs and 2 bursts for a med frame. The boundless will still counter it in CQC. heavy 1v1 depends on who knows that straffing is the key. Except bursts are now much shorter, meaning that more of the burst hits the target. Similar situation with the combat rifle and burst AR.
It's a straight up buff IMHO.

Note: I'm not asking for a nerf.
I am of the opinion that as of right now, the meta didn't get a chance to cement itself. I would like to see how things play out before any changes are made.
That includes the SCR, Nova Knives, Amarr Assault, and anything else people are whining about.
