Should cons get a (doctrinal) LMG upgrade?

And no, even if the answer is extremely biased because its a whine thread.

they're a short ranged squad; giving them a long ranged option, particularly one that requires them to be stationary, isn't going to help much.
Cons picking up a LMG is better than picking up a shrek
Currently cons have no late game value besides capping, given a LMG they will fight on even late game

Way to post a poll.

Everything is biased in the west as it came up during this conflict with Russia about Ukraine

Perhaps mods should start disabling polls that don't provide proper answers.

eh, in general i would argue that the schreck is the better pickup but that has nothing to do with cons anti-infantry effectiveness.
i agree that they're generally lackluster late game but i don't think an LMG is a good solution to that. giving penals an LMG to the exclusion of their flamer purchase would be interesting though.

Cons should not be able to counter "long-range" Axis infantry, at least not when fighting at long range. After all, they usually defeat regular German infantry (Grens, Volks) at short-medium ranges already, and hoorah enables them to close the distance quickly.
That said, I agree that Cons don't quite scale as well as they should, and I've argued in the past that a non-doc vet 3 LMG DP upgrade would actually go a long way in increasing their lategame viability, but that would necessitate a plethora of additional changes, including increasing their upkeep (its not like conspam is already en vogue) and addressing the call-in meta.

I think ppl keep asking for con's global upgrade for years, hope the new ballance team will actually make the game more diversity and fun.

@OP: You do realise that this sort of "poll" is beyond infantile? I mean, do you seriously think you are gonna change anyones mind with this puerile passive-aggressive bullshit?

Its just a bad design solution from Relic.
All rifles should be long range, SMGs short range and Assault rifles medium range
Mosin rifle being a medium and close range weapon is absurd
