Re: Avancys LMG causes pure anarchy

@UP_LordPlumber 

I actually prefer the LCMG, with short barrel and standard ammo, but to each their own.

I don't think any of the currently available weapons need any nerfs, it seems to be a running theme (with BF2042 in particular) that anytime a weapon is even marginally more effective than its counterparts that people start screaming "NERF!"

If anything, some of the other weapons should probably be buffed, as quite a few have now been nerfed to the point of being next to useless.

    @Ironhead841 i didn't say LCMG is bad. Quite the opposite, its very good and perfectly balanced. Had a blast getting Tier 1 for it.

    Problem is, Avancys is even better. Faster ROF compared to LCMG's CQ ammo, lower overall recoil and same 200 rounds. If you use a short barrel on LCMG to match the ROF, the recoil then becomes very high. Avancys with attachments has no recoil.

    Making it "in between" LMG wouldn't hurt. Maybe increase base recoil a little and inrease ROF slightly. This will put it next to LCMG but with a little more base ROF and more recoil to make it a perfect CQB LMG.

    The problem is they don't seem to do "slightly" very well, everything gets smashed with a nerf HAMMER.

    Just look what they have recently done with the Rorsch, that thing is now effectively useless garbage.

    Haven't tried the Avancys yet.

    But I did try the XM8 recently and was blown away.  Huge step up from the LCMG and PKP.  

    Curious how the XM8 compares to the Avancys now.
