The Naked Fanatics

I don't want this to be a whine thread, but I can't contain my anger/indignation any longer. LMGs are just too overpowered. The current situation is just them being more powerful assault rifles with longer effective range and triple to more clip sizes with no penalties, which should be attributed to Ligh Machine Guns. Like extra recoil, longer pullup time from running, and less accuracy from sustained fire. I can think of more, but these would be suitable to at least nerf them to being more acceptable.

Since they upped the damage from Beta, the LMG's are just disgusting. And from now on, until it is changed (which it won't I'm sure), I am clarifying it for myself as a "noob gun". This doesn't mean I will look down on someone for using it, but please just don't brag about it. I'm sorry but this is how I feel.

They are too strong

I completely agree with you Nono, the Medic seems to be a bit of an OP class overall (80 points for a single revive?? That's more than for a kill...) and those LMG's are indeed way too powerful.

I do agree that they are pretty powerful but when your a medic thats all you can use unless you go with a shotgun which just sucks. And they don't totally pwn. I mean an assault\engineer gun close up is still better in my opinion. Its only really the fact that you can use them to snipe long range but you can do that with every gun in the game. I mean I've sniped with the M1911 pistol many times.

Also i don't think their as unbalanced as grenade launchers. A hell of alot of my deaths we're by one shot kills by grenades launched from guns. Its even worse than grenade spamming because atleast with hand grenades you have the chance to run. Not to mention their as powerful as a rocket launcher and cause the same type of damage on buildings and such. White Pass used to be my favourite map but I'm getting annoyed with it because its just grenade galore. And it doesn't help that the class that gets the grenade launchers (Assault) also have supply packs which means once they've used the 2/3 grenades they just drop a supply and rearm.

EDIT: As for reviving I think the point thing isn't that bad. Its not easy to put your guard down to revive a fallen comrade which is why you don't see many people who are willing to do it. But it means a hell of alot for teamwork if you've go a medic who actually does his job and so he should be rewarded for that.

True enough i guess about the points thing, although with the amount of dead people lying about i think it's pretty easy points

Still I think the LMG is too accurate.

No, up close the LMG owns all. I can't remember how many times an idiot has killed me up close even when I have a shotgun. They are WAY overpowered compared to the grenade launchers (which tbh I don't think are very OP at all). I have half a mind to just play with LMGs from now on, seeing how easy they are to use. They should be nerfed.

Yep, when I play medic I always get an awesome score. LMG does high damage, has low recoil, is really accurate and has a very big clip size. As reaper says tho, what else can you take as medic?

I understand that dilemma fully. As I said, I won't look down on you if you use it. Just don't throw it in people's faces (I know, I know, you guys are not like that. Guess I've been playing with too many retards). It just annoys me endlessly when I am come up behind a medic from 10 feet from his back and unload a full clip of aks-74u into his back and he turns around and shoots me dead instantly.

I just wish they would fix it. And I know they won't.

Everybody at the BC2 forums are jumping down my back like I am trying to destroy the game

Medics and recons don't belong in the game.

Soldiers don't belong in this game, let's ban them. And don't use bullets, they're overpowered!



Nah I know what you´re getting at, but I don´t particularly share your sentiments. While I can kill many people with the LMG and with the toob, I don't get killed by those quite as often. I think I get killed equally by each class and weapon, and while the toob and sometimes LMG are among the most annoying deaths, they are not the most numerous.

I also get as many Ace Player pins playing other classes as I do medic Statistically, I don't think it all matters much to me.

I feel as if I'm using fucking hacks when I play with an LMG. Medics are also too easy to get stats with. Maybe I should switch over.

Thats pretty much your usual k/d ratio Nono so not that huge of a improvement.

No, I'm serious in that it's different with LMGs. I can take on a whole team by myself if I wanted. And the medkit for easy heals and defibs for revive points only puts icing on the whole shit cupcake. I just want to see them nerfed just a tiny bit.

Don't get me wrong if the LMG was nerfed and put in line with the other weapons i wouldn't mind at all, infact I'd be glad. To be honest the only reason I'm complaining is because i enjoy playing a medic due to the whole team aspect of it and so naturally don't like it when its called a noob class (in effect). The engineer weapons are my favourite. I just like the feel of them especially the SCAR-L.

I'm sorry Reaper, I never wanted to imply that you are a noob in anyway. I just get so frustrated sometimes I can rant like a little bitch

The only 2 things that need nerfing a tad in this game are the 40mm and the LMGs(not medics in general, although they are still stat whores ). And I can only see them nerfing the 40mm and not the LMGs, and that makes me mad.

Maybe I've just been playing too much

Ever since I started using the Medic class here and there my KDR and SPM has increased dramatically. If I started out as a Medic I have no doubt my overall KDR would be at least 4.
