I don't think we need a LMG really it seams redundant when you look at the two weapons. imagine a weapon with the accuracy/range of a HMG and DPS of a AR, I just dont think we need a bridge between the weapons honestly. |

Only class that can use HMGs are heavies. Heavies can carry all....so why cant other classes carry machine guns? Smgs are pdws...lmgs would have longer ranges than smgs and be used as primary weapon.
The ARs we have now are alot more like LMGs than actually assault rifles, not to mention there is not enough of a gap between the two to justify a in between weapon. While I do want more variety i would rather it be interesting variety than copy and paste stats with different animation and looks. I would appreciate more weapons along the lines of mass drivers, Laser rifles, and Scrambler rifles these are interesting and fun weapons, where as a LMG would just be a different kind of AR. |

What roll does cloaking fit in? Yet people are thirsty for them. What roll does an smg fill when you already have a pistol?
LMGs will allow classes other than the heavy to use a machine gun
There is not enough of a difference between HMG and ARs to justify making a whole new weapon just to fill a role that doesnt need filling.
cloaking will allow players to dedicate them selfs to scouting and ninja killing while SMG allow players to protect themselves from multiple targets or a ambush when their main weapon is poorly suited for it.

I could see a LMG being a minimtar version of a AR, then we would have a minni SMG LMG and HMG. but i still dont see it filling a necessary role.
When i listed those weapons early I wasnt asking for more laser weapons weapons but more EVE/alien weapons from the normally line up we deal with in Cod or BF. I want to feel like Im using a weapon with 1000s of years of weapons developlment put into it rather than another spray weapon. |

The lmg would fill the same roll as the HMG does but for other classes. And that is pretty much the void right there....the machine gun is inaccessible to other classes.
I still dont think we need another spray weapon especially considering how well AR already do. |

I want to feel like Im using a weapon with 1000s of years of weapons developlment put into it rather than another spray weapon. We already have assault rifles, shotguns, pdws...all weapons seen in COD or BF. They can design it with a futuristic theme just like they did the GEK or Carthum pistol, etc.
When did CoD get laser rifles, Forge guns, and Swarm launchers, you know all the interesting stuff thats apart of Dust and makes it more interesting than those two games.
Look I just dont see why we would need a LMGs when you can use a AR. Maybe i would be for this if ARs didn't have twice the magazine sizes of CoD guns or if ARs didn't have as much DPS as they do now. but what we call ARs in dust might as well be LMGs for all intended purposes. Dont forget the AR is already over powered so a LMG would be even more so.
you say this will add more variety but all it will do is either had an entirely overpowered weapons which doesn't bring any real depth to dust.
But im done, I dont care enough either way i just dont think it would be worth the development time. |
