Default Is there any point to an mg-42 in spearhead multi? - 11-05-2002, 06:08 AM

I was thinking about this last night and even though everyone bitched about wanting one its probably gonna be the most unused weapon in mu,ltiplayer.

Think about it, its on a laffette mount so you can't fire it when on the move, and when you do plonk it down and start firing you're basically sniper fodder. eek:

The only way i can see this being in any way usefull is if you set it up behind a doorway or you can probably defend your spawn area. As an offensive weapon though it will probably be useless. cry:


Another problem i have with the implementation of the mg is lag. When you set up the mg it will behave the same as the mg's in normal moh:aa maps aside from the fact that it needs reloaded. Now try firing an mg-42 with a ping of around 80 or so and you will see its a pain in the ass to do and its very sluggish.

Since the mg's in spearhead basically become static turrets when you deploy them they will most likely have that annoying lag\sluggish movement associated with them as well. cry:
