Buff tank machine guns in line with infantry machine guns and built HMGs

I shouldn’t take 6 shots to kill one man with a .30 cal gun on a tank that kills in 2 shots when handheld, and a .50 cal shouldn’t be getting hitmarkers period.

Muh fiddy needs a buff. Our Lord Browning weeps as his second greatest creation (after .45 ACP of course) is disgraced in such a way

it is artificial balance cause tanks would be totally OP with actual damage of infantry MG.

It wouldn’t be OP at all. It’d help all the gray zone cowards grow a pair as they’d finally have something to kill those that try to kill them other than the HE shell

No, that’s total BS opinion. Especially since they are still affected by very bad overheat mechanics.

Im just not a fan of overheat.

However I do hate how the 50 cal feels…Im just not…feeling it…

Do you remember when the 50 cals hit hard and penetrated everything on the pacific??

you suck with tanks? cause this is not true at all. ffs tanks are currently biggest kill farmers in the game and that is with crappy MG that needs 4-5 hits to kill a player. depending on tank i get significant percentage of kills with MG.

like MG cant be used from 200m away when you have gunners 5x zoom.

yeah i hate those overheat mechanics also.

so armored HE spammer with MG/HMG in gray zone with 5x zoom doesnt sound OP? specially cause people suck with actually countering enemy tank.

sure when they remove the ability for a tank to use its cannon to kil soldiers more than arms reach away

that is firing a HE shell and killing a soldier 5 to 10 units (feet/meters?) away

No. I do some good work with a 105 Sherman. Love doing good work with a 105 Sherman actually. I’m just an Infantry Gamer myself. I like playing Infantry. It’s my bread and butter. It’s how I help my team actually win a match instead of just trying to make the entire game about me. Unlike armor mains. I think buffing the M2 Browning to its full potential is a great idea as an Infantry Gamer. Again, it’ll help these inadequate tankers feel like they actually have a way of dealing with infantry who are way better players than they are and, maybe, help bring a few of them out of the gray zone

You are mixing up completely different issues.

I don’t know why we should suffer laughable tank MGs just because camping in grey zone is somewhat efficient for low skilled players.

And do you really think that would make grey zone campers a bigger threat? xDD That’s ridiculous. You can’t even be serious.
It wouldn’t make them any more annoying or threatening than they currently are.

It would only help those active tankers.
It happened to me so many times that an AT gunner jumped on me from behind some corner right in front of my tank. And killed me while I was just making pathetic white hit markers on him. And I couldn’t use main gun because I was reloading

Useless coax doesn’t make its job properly. That’s the fact.

That’s nothing.

Remember when 20mm AA hurt? I main flakpz1 and worse, milktruck aa.

Takes 3-4 shots of those shells to take a soldier down… :expressionless:

I don’t see any issues with that

Wasn’t AA abused by certain players in the old days? Maybe I remember it wrong :zipper_mouth_face:

I’m talking of flakpz1 and the milktruck.

If you think those are OP and deserve to be nerfed as they are now…

Something is wrong.

They are meh because they are AA and AA was nered vs infantry. That’s what I mean.

50 cals were a big selling point for US tanks, now they don’t kill in one shot anymore. Kinda ridiculous thinking about it.

Yes, it’s also what I mean.

They shouldn’t suck when firing at infantry. It’s their only use after the occasional plane… (I speak of SPAA)

note: it seems inconsistent too. The Japanese Tae Se seems to kill in one shot, but also use 20mm like the flakpz1…

yea i agree if it design to be shot at infantry and aircraft mostly it shouldnt suck

would love for their overheat to be a little less than what it is (idk what the word is rn sorry)
