If you can't admit that its over performing compared to the other mg's in the game then you really need to get your eyes checked.
It can't suppress more then one squad if you don't babysit it.
It can be flanked by accident due to smallest arc.
It deploys fast, but turns slowest of all HMGs.
It gets hardcountered by 2 squads of anything that walk 10 meters next to each other.
Clearly signs of it being overpowered. Hard to not admit how incredibly potent doom machine it is indeed
If you have problems with maxims, you need to L2P.
We've had that discussion already, nothing much have changes since, except maxim getting nerfed.
If you still have problems against it, the issue is serious and is located somewhere between keyboard and a chair.
