It might just be tank MGs for some reason, but I see it a lot.
But isn’t it caused by player going prone?
That’s my opinion about this:
Honestly I don’t know those weapons much yet, so can’t add to it.
It’s not hipfiring MGs what I have problems actually with. But with guys turning lightning quick, jumping left and right or out from second level window with a 12 kg weapon in hand, then 0.5 sec after touchdown way too precisely shooting without aiming much.
Hit the ground, need to pull up yourself in 5 seconds and everything is fine. Fall over when jumping more than 3 stairs. Pay for the weight of your weapon and all the bullets you bring with it. Be a snail and unable to sprint much when bringing two >10 kg weapons and 4 detpacks.
I never carried stuff like that so can’t say whether I’m right, but lot of the movements seem inhuman currently.
But it’s a different subject - for the OP, I don’t wish suppressive fire introduced right now until the plane bombs issue is fixed. Already too much distraction for some of the non-pro players.
Ok, seems you have some good points in the other post but others also voiced my concern:
agreed, but we will need 200 magazine bullets to do properly, the 50 bulets of the MG34 and MG42 is enough only to cover and give some sirius cover for you squad. HMG squad maybe? i mean, a squad that instead of a mortar, have a Heavy MG. like a browing machine gun for americans, and other models for russias, british etc etc.
nice adition to the game anyway.

How about suppresion that kicks in after some time? So for example you have to be under fire for let’s say 3s to start being suppressed. It doesn’t have logical sense but for the game purpose it may work.
It’s the same solution I proposed already.
No, these are definitely bots with the way they act.
That’s good news actually. Thanks for info.
I think the question was whether they were bots mimcking the squad leader’s actions. If the player goes prone, bots tend to follow. I’m unsure whether you answered that.

I guess that would not hurt for me, now that I gave it time to sink in.
Is the barrle guard going to be INSTANTLY hot? Are you going to shoot for a minute??
No - neither - I have carreid a bren and a FN MAG - you can put htem to you shoulder without any bother at all - they are heavy, but if you aren’t holding them ther ffor any time then that’s not an issue.
This was implemented before the bots were smart enough to go prone when the leader does, so it’s independent of that.
