Why does almost every Heavy and his buddy use this gun? There are three kinds of HMG, and about nine other unique kinds of HMG besides, so why always this one? |

Because it is the only usable gun.
The burst is useless why would you want pulse shots with an hmg? So I shoot a few rounds wait then shoot a few more then wait and oh I'm dead.
The assault advantages is less damage and further range. That is just suicide by long distance.
So it is the only choice in the game for us at the moment.
I hope they reconsider these weapons. I'm sure a few people are using them but they are rare |

Its the same thing as an assualt using a blindside or gek, a scout using a spit fire or a sniper using a 511! Every class has a AUR weapon that is available in advance with proto functionality. Its balanced throughout!

No. Since they added the fused grenades all AUR items have an equal or superior ISK variant. Also, as I understand it you will be able to purchase AUR items with ISK once DUST is linked to the EVE markets. But even if that isn't true you can still get the same thing with ISK as you can with AUR with usually one additional level of the requisite skill. So no, that is not pay to win. |

It has the same damage and CPU/PG requirements as the MH-82 HMG, but requires one less level in Heavy Machine Gun Operation. Same as every other AUR gun.

And the main reason you see the Broadside MH-82 is because the advanced HMG is over 38,000 ISK. How much was that GEK you're running? Or maybe you're using the militia assault rifle. Do you even know how crappy the militia HMG is? Oh wait, we don't have one. The Broadside isn't any better than the regular advanced HMG, but everything we heavies use is 2 to 3 times more expensive than everyone else. Don't worry, we're not secretly the only class with that magical AUR gun that makes us invincible. I've been killed by being shot in the back by a militia assault rifle enough times to promise you that.
Actually, it has the same stats as Proto, not advanced... |

I stand corrected. The damage is the same as the proto, but the broadside overheats faster. I don't know why I thought the damage was the same. Should have fact checked before I posted something that wasn't correct. Sorry about that. |
