UMG- 40. A Smith and Wesson .40 round yet does the same damage as all 9mm SMGs?

Please make this weapon relevant and a viable, competitive option. DICE did the same thing with the UMP40 in BF4 and it was as puzzling a decision and the weapon is/was as and as useless in BF4 as it is in BF6. 

Sure, it’s usable.  But in most head to head fights vs someone as proficient as you are, the UMP 40 will lose to more competitive weapons.

    Some guns take 6 headshots to kill at 20m. LOL. If you are looking for a realistic shooter this isn't it. I do agree that they need to give the weapons more personality though but I don't think it will ever happen.

    Besides YOU, Who the !$%# said anything about  “looking for a realistic shooter”??

    Why put words into my post that clearly aren’t there?  Clearly I’m not even insinuating to the slightest degree anything about wanting to see “realism” or milsim aspects of gameplay in BF6. 

    You’re just pulling guano from the aether because… WHY exactly? 

    Wanting to see non competitive weapons in BF6 become … COMPETITIVE… isn’t even remotely close to “LooKiNg FoR a ReAlisTiC ShOotEr”.

    Well, you did say you wanted it to do more damage because in REAL life it has a larger caliber. So, you may see why I thought you wanted just a hint of realism. Chill out bro before you have a stroke.

    What they really need to do is just drop the stupid .40sw thing, make it .45 and therefore 33.4 damage nobody is ever gonna use the UMG-40 how it is rn its completely useless

    Well there is a .45 version of the MP5 SMG so that would be appropriate.

    Anything to see these obscure, outmatched weapons become competitive! Like the L85 AR and other weapons that are so outclassed that nobody in their right mind would want to use them. 

    Sure. You can do okay with almost any weapon. However in head to head versus anyone with the same level of competence on the more competitive weapons will more often than not shred you.
