Please tell me how the nearby multiplier increases the AOE?

Anyway bottom line 1 MG can take MORE THAN A SECOND to acquire a target while the other takes just a fraction of a second.

I dont use the 50 because its bad. Everytime I use the 50 it turns out to be bad...Rifles are good. Rifles are greater than the 50 every time.

I will use the Rifle to capture an MG34 or 42 and always do better then with a 50. Because the 50 sucks. As does the DSHK and they are basically the same thing with the DSHK being better against Vehicles and having more surviability.

Please show me a 1v1 with you using a 50 Cal really good. You cant. Because it wont happen. Mainly because the 50 cal sucks.

Just grab popcorn and enjoy the show.
I like the most the part where he pastes all of the stats because he have no slightest clue which ones are important or why smaller value can mean much bigger outcome.

Suppression is multiplied by the ROF which the Maxim is faster. They have right around the same suppression with the 50 being slightly better. But in practice they both will suppress on the first burst. Reload, ROF, Targetting all comes into play with more than one squad.

That is the Area the 50 sucks at. It has a mediocre ROF reload and terrible targetting. If you use a Maxim it will work better at the Job of being an MG for less and arrives earlier. Also the MG42 of course.

Nearby multiplier is how much of a bonus it gets to suppress units that are close. But bascially you need to figure out the ROF to put your suppression values against. The Suppression value does not stand on its own.

They all do! Including the Maxim. Which is EXACTLY the same as the 50s. In practive a Maxim will only suppress one squad at a time without manually retargeting. The MG42 is better in this regard and will regularly suppress more than one.

I should have said NO ADDTIONAL AOE suppression than the Maxim. I.e. its an expensive Maxim that acquires targets SLOWER and can only handle one squad at a time. Instead of having the fastest Packup like the Maxim it uses the wide Arc to target another squad. Sadly since its targetting is SLOWER then anything but the DSHK (which also sucks) It isnt as good as the Maxim at handling more than a single infantry squad.

Add to this its high cost, tech requirement and low health means its the worst in game. Based on stats its a crappier DSHK not an analogue to useful infantry control MGs like the Maxim or MG42.
