MG-206 Heavy Machine Gun NO Aiming Reticle in 3rd Person.

[Ghostrunner]

You have to go into 1st person to aim this weapon. Another poor choice and another way to make this NEW weapon pointless to use. Plus only 2 Mags. Well done Devs keep up the Negative work.

Yea, noticed this as well.
But that's the same ammo the existing MG comes with, so that's fair.
I haven't had time to do any testing yet, but the MG already shreds anything up to a Charger, so to be of any use, HMG needs to at least be able to shred Charger legs.
If it doesn't, I don't understand what it's purpose is, and it's need power, to offset the major hurdle of needing to be in first person to fire.

yep, coz they listen only to elitist crybabies. Another content drop, another useless gun.

This game needs serious weapon rebalance, so many cool looking guns are useless beoynd trivial difficulty

75 ammo, no reticle, still kills a devastator or scout walker so slow after a dozen+ shots I might as well be using a scorcher+AMR. (For serious though scorcher pops walkers faster and AMR pops devastators faster when forced to ADS for practical use)

But hey! at least it gets both spare mags back from a resupply pod, so that means it HAS to be called overpowered compared to the default MG!

i think that`s bug, that you get two belts per one ammo case

Pretty noob that it has sights at all, honestly. I think all weapons should be fired randomly from the hip. That's what badass pros do in the movies.

Not at all, I think everyone should be playing with HUD completely disabled for maximum immersion and hardcore experience. The game is way too easy as it is...

And another one who is completely unaware of bot front.....

This thing SHREDS striders and devastators.

Low capacity high damage precision weapons are to use vs bots, not bugs.

It only shreds if you can hit the things, and even then, I dumped a full mag into a devastator without killing it because most of my shots were so inaccurate with the massive recoil that they hit the shield instead of the bot. I'm not saying it's bad, but other weapons are definitely better in slot.

It's not, though
MG34, if you have the upgrade for ammo on support weapons being full, is 3 x 150
HMG is 3 x 75.
Both have 1 in gun 2 reserve boxes
3 x 75, doesn't come close to 3 x 150...
It's actually literally, half, and you're better off with the MG43 in all instances.

I can't see anything through the tiny scope, so I already use the gun this way.
