    LMG FRC Saw + overcharge = melt away the baddies!!

    this is my main weapon. i have one with a 3% damage boost from its maxed bar, perhaps ill find a better one later. when i turn on overcharge with the extended ego on kill, extended ego perks its a bullet hose with devastating power. i put a scope on it and i gotta say a bullet hose to the face ends the enemy so fast. takes some getting used to but for me its the best choice out there. the ranges its useful in, the sheer power, and the seemingly endless ammo is nasty. im always in the top 5 in arkfalls and in dire situation i find a choke point, pop overcharge and mow down anything that comes my way.

    I seem to be an LMG user in most games (BF3, BO2) especially in this one. I've probably used them more than all the other weapons combined (I've maxed out the XP on several now). The only one I don't like (and I can't remember its name right now) is the burst fire one. I run with the scavenger perk and also a perk down by cloak that gives a percentage of ammo refills on critical kills so I always have enough ammo (except may on the final level of arkfalls).

    not sure the name of that one either but i like it better than the EMC version, that thing is useless. may as well use an AR if ur gonna use that thing.

    I prefer running with my AR/Boltie rifle combo. Not as bulky or ugly as the LMG and the perks I have I don't have to worry bout my ammo count. Plus I can overcharge and drop damn near anything with little to no problems.

    It scares me that I live in a world where gamers would rather have their voice chat working instead of the game working correctly.

    I'm not sure if it's active anymore, but during beta this kind of attack had a leeching effect. You should notice randomly when firing on targets, that a sound and a small nova will appear on your character. This happens when you leech. I don't remember correctly, but I believe it both leech hitpoints and shield for 10% of the damage done.

    Or LMG you can't roll when equipping them.

    LMG is not a run and gun type of fire arm, it's not even a stand and gun - in most cases only being effective or manageable on a tripod or caged.
    You're totally right about LMGs typically not being a weapon you carry and fire, but so far the only example I've seen of them in-game is the SAW, which is totally normal to carry and fire. Something like the M240G is still an LMG in my opinion, and if you want to run around while you shoot that, you're not going to be rolling around. I agree that disabling the roll or something like that sounds like a great idea for LMGs. A little trade-off for the damage increase, and a sensible one.

    I've been using cloak because I snipe a lot, but with the scope on my LMG now... maybe overcharge with ammo refill and ego extend could be DEADLY
