For current state, the mount function (or B on Keyboard) is very wonky and unusable in most of situation. So, i have two suggestion for this: one with a bit of work and simpler version.
My first suggesyion is to change current mount function to “open/close bipod”. By opening bipod, when you lay down/crouch, it get same recoil as current recoil when mounted. But, if you open it you get speed debuff, which makes players to use it more realistically.
My second thought is just remove mounting from the entire game and uniquely for LMG decrease its recoil when lay downed(or give this treat to all guns that have bipod). This is really simple solution compare to my previous suggestion. I know Darkflow is lazy, probably proposing “better” suggestion may convince them to actually apply in game.

Keo said they know the issue but it’s not the priority. So…

Maybe in 2023, if the game is still alive.

It will be alive. It will look like CoD but it will exist.
(I can no longer be positive about this game, even when I complained I was optimistic. Now it’s just… shame.)

Everything that start with optimistic and “revolutionary” concept will always return back to a simpler one like what we have now.
I didn’t and still don’t have any particular expectations for this game, it will not ever be what it promised and still promise to become.

I like that you can mount every gun right now, not just LMG’s, very useful function. Wonky at the beginning but now very used to it. My only concern always was mounting MG’s in D-day bunkers and some windows, for some reason (when mounted) player always aims at ceiling or can’t aim too low on ground to shoot closing in enemies. If crouching first and then mounting it mostly helps but not every time. Another example are mounted MG’s on the roof of one of the artillery bunkers on hill on D-Day. Two or three of them are pretty useless since they aim too far away at beaches and can’t be aimed more lower to cover ground level. Otherwise than this little inconvenience, i love mounting function. Only i’d love to see bipod open/close animation and hiding when reloading MG like in Red Orchestra 2, so unmounting/mounting again is not needed so often.

If it becomes more COD then yes it would suck. But as it is now it has a good mix of everything and is distinct. Biggest challenge is leveling and knowing where and what to use. This is a good game currently and playing it well takes skill. But mindless running and gunning still exists; just open a good mg nest and shoot them down.
