Title says it all, the HMG is really underpowered now, can't kill anything that's more than 10 feet away from me, and not running a militia suit. The common argument is that the HMG is meant for CQ Defense, but how can anybody defend anything with an HMG???? Seriously, you have more luck running double smg's than using an HMG. I can't be the only one who sees this, thoughts???
HMG FTW!!!!!!!

That's the problem, why is it that i need run to them, and get into shotgun range, while using a "Defensive" weapon, to get the kill. Hell, as a heavy, running up to someone is already a problem itself.

I usually use the ar or smg inside the cities and they can beat the hmg users pretty easy and trying to get close to enemies is really hard even in cq, the proof is that I kept at range 2 heavies with one dragonfly scout and they weren't able to get me, just because of that I got them. It "works" in PC if ppl rush with them, otherwise they are just a great Av unit.
After several nerfs I don't see many players using them because they sux, and the ones that use them usually die really easy because heavies can't run :] [just my opinion, (hint, use a light weapon instead, that works way better, and better than a commando 2, just keep "range")] wonder if ppl will do the same after scr nerf. :)
Exactly, funny that you say if people will still use Sent. with light weapons after Scr.nerf, cause i use Scr. with sentinel :P. It doesn't make sense either, it's a freaking minigun for god's sake.

Burst doesn't seem to have changed much, and I think the range reduction for the base HMG only capped the optimal, which it never really hit anyway because of dispersion, at the point where dispersion renders it virtually useless. Sooo are you with or against???? Lol sorry

And in BC to 10 meters of the console in letter closed Adapt or die much ive adapted and succeded with my relatively same militia only playstyle for a very long time through al the nerfs and buffs and everything but now. thats at its end. game turned into cod pretty much. theres no adapting in that. i find it funny how an "unbalanced game" is more fun to play than most "balanced" twitch shooter games. its stupid really. screw the idea of balance. there will never been any balance until the game mechanic exploits are fixed. the only good shooters are the orignal 2 star wars battle front games. Agreed, balance in Dust is sh!t, your either using race rifle, or shotgun if you wanna compete. Gun mechanics and strafe mechanics are even more sh!t.
