In the previous build, hit detection problems meant people would just casually stroll harmlessly through your stream of bullets. Good luck trying that now. I struggle to understand how you reached the conclusion that HMGs are nerfed for this build.
Can you explain what has improved?
Personally i think "Doom" mode does not serve its name justice;
- first of all screen shake is like the SMG used to be like so it is much harder to keep a stream on someone.
- medium-longe range isnt as effective as it used to be.
P.S. how do you explain aiming down sigh on a HMG? is the merc shrugging the machine gun while leaning over it.....i just dont know.
Its not pretty poitless to use anything higher than a basic HMG, the others are no cost efficient compared to the basic.

The grass is always greener.
I'm not really complaining about the damage nerf, other than prices being ridiculous now, because i usually just use basic anyway. I just dont want to deal with this lame ADS view.
I remember them talking about the HMG being able to be mounted in the future, hopefully this is their way of forcing us to test that view. But i want my old one back eventually, please.  |

I am curious if I can one shot burst a proto suit by holding the sights with good aim it could be a awesome new gun in the HMG world.
Not to go against you Taste but if HMGs still work better then last build I think they are great then.
If by blast build you mean codex then no it isnt, if you mean precursor then yes its still better than back then.
Doom mode is just lame, make aiming more difficult as well as killing what little staffing speed we had. |

^^ i agree, i think the main gripe there is there is really no point to use the upgraded versions now because of the price gaps being way too big and it not being worth it to pay 4x the ISK for 0.8 damage increase.
