I kinda hate to do this, but snipers are complaining about being sniped by the PKMB.Schuss wrote:
so the PKM is more accurate now ? Well, guess what, learn, adapt, overcome. There is nothing in that game that cannot be conquered through good teamplay. If you attack a LMG in prone position on a open field from the front, you are just plain stupid and deserve to get blown to bits.
I know the comparison to real life is somewhat flawed, but would any sensible infantry platoon attack a LMG position like that ? Of course not.
Smoke him, have your sniper take him out, flank him and get him from the back, get armor support. there are lots of possibilities here, provided you play within a squad.
And if you don't like playing in a squad and prefer the lone wolf action, well too bad for you. You obviously have no idea what this game is about...
Personally, I don't find myself getting killed by PKM's any more than before 1.2, and really, it doesn't bother me that much because I know my trusty squad will get the sucker and revive my ass.
EDIT: Also, many complaints are about the Support in question standing, even running, then going prone and killing you within seconds. Not arguing, pointing out
R0ly, I know what you're saying about games and real life (and this thread is a pefect example ), so forgive me if one of my posts at you was a little misworded or harse I don't claim to have ever been to a war of any kind (or claim to be old enough yet, or plan to, or ...), but I think based on the statistics the recoil on something shelling out that many bullets would be kinda heavy and hard to lug around and fire from the hip. Proning, with the bipod I can see. See earlier post.
Again, sorry if I came off as harsh
