Can we have more machine gun threads please?

One page just isn't enough

[Sifright]

mgs need to be stronger than SLs because there are no other ballistics options for 5 and half tonnes.

Lasers have many options at the .5 to 2 tonne range. Bs haves none.

Mgs need to edge out small laser and be at least nominally on par with mls to be of any consequence in mwo.

this is true, obviously the entire front page needs to be mg threads so PGI can get the clue.

i'm rather for improving the mg's damage...not necessarily to the dps of a sml, but at least the half of it

OR

if PGI would finally include crits to engines...that would make mgs really fun to use...crack it open and finish it off!

Unghhh....

UNNNGHHHHH

You don't know how to compare stats properly do you?

The mg being weaker than the SL in mwo would make objectively worse in every way.

it needs to be BETTER at damage than the SL to be its equal.

No, it's never enough!

Hell, after the answers from ask the devs 35, it is blatantly obvoius that this is the only way we can get PGI to listen. They've even said so themselves.

So yes, make moar MG threads plox!

K thx bai.

Now, when we say "as strong as" do we mean in terms of DPS or per cycle? Because if you mean per weapon cycle then... no.
However, if we talk, say, the DPS of a small laser with the crit-seeking bonus, then we may have something viable. My two pence.

*edit* changed my mind about damage, really it needs to have more than the damage of a SL to be worth the extra tonnage. Crit seeking isn't enough now I think about it.

We have to consolidate all the threads on Machine Gun feedback because there's too many of them at present. Please continue here.
