Does anyone remember how devastating the small laser is?
nobody?

because its not.


so this is their excuse for not buffing the MG which currently does 1/3 of what the whimpy SL does.

Because then it would be the advent of the mythical 3 second Jenner, but it's a spider, with an impossible 6MGs clawing at your backside! Oh, the humanity!
There is no excuse. Just laziness. If they halved the ammo per ton and quadrupled the damage per round, then MGs would be balanced.

We would be ground into dust! I think the current MGs are just fine, where I can watch a whole episode of LOST and still not worry about damage. That's how ALL weapons should be.

I've been killed in my Atlas by jenners in 3ish seconds many times. We don't need more Atlases dieing that fast from spiders too!

Put more armor on your back then. Stop crying because you run bad builds.

Bro, I have a damage of 26 done with 700 hits from MGs. That basically puts them in OP land.

Couldn't be sure. I've snuck up behind bad atlas builds in a 6ML jenner. Completely stopped moving to get a clean shot. Alpha'ed a side torso and completely blown it out and taken off an arm, and then the pilot ******* in chat that jenners are OP.

Yep I don't think PGI understands balance anymore to be honest. Nothing about he MG is good, remember when it was 80% for a triple crit and people barely defended it?
