as in the title.
i can’t bear it, and it makes no sense.
Kubelwagen with mg 34 with 50 rounds… Overheats
… RS or KS75 with the same machinegun and same magazine capcity does not.
GAZ Jeep with DS39 and 150 rounds, it does overheat.
Premium Bike with the same machinegun, it does not.
Jeep with 30 cal… with 250 rounds overheats.
but the WLA Davison with the same gun, does not.
and last but more egregious,
the japanese car with a 30 round Type 11 it overheats before reaching half of the second mag 
.
but the hand held machinegun, and premium bikes do not.
what’s even the point of using these cars if their primary objective is hindered by the fricking performance.
it’s like these weapons are firing in the middle of a firestorm with 90* outside.
the crew is rather exposed.
i see 0 reasons to nerf a class where the whole point is being an anti infantry but weak against most firearms.
same goes with the premium AA car.
… it’s meant to be an AA,
but it overheats after 10/20 bullets.

The Japanese type 11 overheating is crazy.

MG42 on the Sd.Kfz 251/1 overheats. It’s just using the 50 round drum like the hand held BR IV, reminder this vehicle is BR II.
As infuriating as it is, pretty sure the overheat is so the weapon performs according to the BR of the vehicle.
MGs on bikes can’t overheat, but they lack AP ammo.
MGs on tanks can overheat, but they have AP ammo.
Mgs on APC with AP ammo can overheat (MG 42, M2, Type 97), one without AP ammo can not overheat (DP 27, Te-4. Bren).
Cars should either get AP ammo or stop overheating.
MG34 could be changed to 75 round trommel version used on vehicles early war IRL.
Type 11 is a very bad choice for a car MG, lack of ammo animation is very jarring. Consider using Type 92 from planes. Or perhaps use a Te-4 again.

that’s kinda the point thought.
it makes no sense for cars to have AP ammo. and those don’t have them.
why the overheat though.
you’re just nerfing the very core of the class.
it’s even in the name
i can maybe see an argument for the russian and american versions with large magazines.
but even then the overheat rate is absurd.
… but then again the bikes counter parts don’t overheat with the same exact same gun.

Overheat won’t be removed completely for jeeps
But it’ll be SIGNIFICANTLY less to the point that it’s essentially just cosmetic
