Like Bill Shatner and Rollins said, "I Can't Get Behind That".
Not necessarily true. I think the VBI AR is the best AR even though some others think the same of the FRC. I like the way the VBI looks as well. But see, the VBI fans and the FRC fans can argue all day which is best and it just comes down to personal tastes in the end. Other weapon types can have similar debates. You can't have that same debate with LMGs. The only debate there is which out of the thunder or the rocker sucks the least.Quote:

I don't know that LMG's need a damage buff, but less spread for both LMGs and ARs wouldn't be unwanted. I've always seen LMGs as ARs with a larger clip.
any game but this? yes i agree.Quote:

Just boosting damage isn't what LMG's need, they need overall tuning as weapons.
because if they all had damage like the SAW, why would you use ARs?
Because not everybody likes the saw? I prefer my VBI AR personally, and have 2 good Saws.Quote:

and you are misconstruing what I said about bows....
I have just returned to defiance as my frineds are playing it, when the region lock is released I will be starting again with a US server account, I play a machinist and the best gun I have LMG wise is a purple saw that fires that bio goo stuff that slows enemies down, but every one i picked up does 404 pointsof damge per bullet or worse, when I can find white snipers doing over 2000 per shot non critical, this needs sorting out,let the LMG hit harder, they are innaccurate but powerful weapons and that should be reflected in game, right now they have the inaccuarcy right but thats it
Snipers also don't have 80 rounds per reload.Quote:

Of course, there are .50 cal machine guns, but no one carries those...
