mg36 or pkm

[toothmeat]

have just got a new unlock and want to unlock a support weapon. which do you think is the best gun, the mg36 or the pkm?

are there any unlocks not to bother with, for example, flash bangs. remember them? everone had them for about one, never to be seen again.

Re: mg36 or pkm

u will need the pkm to unlock the mg36 and in my experience..theyre both nice weapons but i prefer the pkm over the mg36

i would not bother unlocking any kits u dont play like the engineer (the mp7 sucks anyways) and i also believe that flashbangs can be useful but only if u kno how to use them and most ppl dont.

Re: mg36 or pkm

I'd go wit the PKM but i use both, The MG36 is like a dumbed down RPK-74 and is good in close to mid-range encounters. The PKM is good because you can semi-snipe people if you use very short bursts, and it's very powerful with 4 shots to kill an armored target, but the slow rate of fire hinders it slightly.

All the unlocks are good, it just depends on how you use them and how you play, it all comes down to personal preferance.

This chart should help you out as well:

Re: mg36 or pkm

MG36 is great. No need to burst in short-to-mid range, just plug away. PKM is the opposite, good for mid-to-long range (having no choice but to prone at 3 feet isn't what I'd call a good close combat weapon), and you need to burst carefully.

Re: mg36 or pkm

i prefer the MG36 because of its accuracy, high ROF, quick reload time, and burst fire.

Re: mg36 or pkm

Explain?

for each kit u have different levels of unlocks:

default:m249 or rpk or some chinese type # gun

first level unlock(requires rank up): pkm

second level unlock(requires special forces, rank up, and first level unlock): mg36

so u need to unlock the pkm b4 u unlock the mg36 like u need to rank up to corporal before u rank up to sergeant

but if u have special forces, u get 2x unlocks so u can easily go from default->pkm->mg36

Re: mg36 or pkm

yeah what conscript said.

I use both the PKM and the Mg36, both are good, and both have slightly different things that make them go "ping" in my book.

The PKM lets you shoot through solid barriers, so on maps like MAshtuur with the iron fence around Backyard, Power station, and at hill, you can pick people capping the flag off through the fence.

The MG36 has a nice high rate of fire and longer heat up time so is better for sustained fire, like in Karkand.

The other maps it's a toss up, witht he RPk-74 getting a look in every now and then as well.
