new lmg's when?

[Mereoleona, Fister of Fury]

wish support started with more guns. especially seeing as all other classes have a literal arsenal that works for them

[Toknak]

They forgot about Support mains, and used their energy to forge the god-killing Vector in place of the LMG armory.

7 years of development, you get 4 guns for support. You want to do the maths when the next support gun going to be?

[Toby Larone]

can we just get buffed suppression and a biped that works for LMG's at least

[Gully B.]

really hope we get a bipod buff, encourage machinegun nests

[wtfdytytt]

LMG main here. Its hard out here for a pimp. It appears my job is not to actually fire at anyone but to be a mobile spawn point with an ammo box.

[BÆRD]

it would nice to have few more Russian themed options, there are none atm.

Not sure when they'll be added in, but if you look at the Supporter pack you can see there's 2 support weapons that are gonna be added Eventually(tm). Looks like an M60 and an MG4 or M240.

Which will be just as awful as the current MGs. Until they fix the bipods, support is a useless class.

MG36 is decent and the L86 is good once you've got the damage+ barrels, it just takes 300 painful kills to acquire. But yeah I agree bipods are a trap attachment for the Ultimax and M249.
The LSWs don't even get bipods which is an odd choice.

The game doesn't really incentivise you to give out ammo though. You get piss all EXP for it.

Lets not forget, before MGs can become any viable, they need to add a suppression mechanic anyway.
In most Battlefields the most important part about the Supports was holding enemies down/pin them down, so your team could advance and pick them off.
Pretty much diffusing situations with too much fire exchange.
A lot of the situations in BBR are exactly that what Supports in BF are supposed to diffuse.
40 people just shooting from every direction with constant respawning because snipers lurk around and play vultures.
Have a few Supports to clear that up and not allow snipers to do what they want.
