Its funny how half you people complain about the m60 when people are not even using it to its full advantage, the way people shoot it sometimes is stupid.
    For the record that I never complain about any gun or tube or anything being overpowered, yet. But given my low rank and slow score rate, my experience is that PKM is OK, but Type 88 LMG is sketchy on accuracy, and I just don't get used to M249. Probably because I have some experience with the real ones before. There are times that I can't hit anything, and there are times half my shots landed on enemy. As a result, I got raped by the enemy (strangely, usually rank 20 and above since last weekend.) My theory is that M60 is the first decent gun in med class, so most use it because it works. If MG36 is god send like you say, some people will calling for nerf very soon.

    However, it seems to me that meds are mostly low rankers like me at the moment.

    BTW, how is MG3?

      Yes, it's much easier to scream about noobs and nerfing than to actually organize a squad and assault an MG position like you would on the battlefield - cover, concealment, fire, maneuver, and flank.

        Too easy to get kills, not as much skill involved, noob.

          I just don't follow the logic. When the US dropped nuclear weapons on Japan to end the war, was that "Noob" to you? How about US F/A-18's taking on the Iraqi Air Force, was that "Noob" also? The A-10's used to decimate their armor?

          It's all about flanking, cover and concealment. I don't care what kind of weapon you're using if I'm playing properly.

            This is a game, not war. In a fight, I'll rip someone's ear off with my teeth. I'll kick someone's knees and cripple him for life.

            While playing basketball, I don't stomp on peoples' feet in order to slow them down, or "accidentally" elbow people in the face. It's a game, and that would be lame. No one likes playing with jerks.

            So go ahead and play like a scrotehat. Just don't be surprised when people don't want to play with you anymore.

                What did he say other than he plays the game and doesn't whine about "noobs using XXX" that makes you think he's a scrotehat?

                  Re: M60 noobs

                  This is ********. I am killed by [some weapon] all the time! And I sometimes tell myself "COME ON", stop killing me with [some weapon]!!! But I am not going to go all ***** about it asking [some weapon] to be changed. Try something new, try to avoid being killed by that weapon. If you're constantly being killed by the repair tool, it's advisable you start playing the game. Same for being killed by snipers, either the sniper is really a good shot and landed a headshot while you were running for cover, or you're just too stupid too move your *** out of sight quick enough.

                  Some peoples definition of noob = that guy who just killed me~ Now, who is the actual noob, I wonder.

                    Every sentence in a post isn't always pointed directly at the person quoted. That last sentence was for everyone who wants to play using only the most powerful, unbalanced weapons. Sure, it's in the game. Sure, nothing says you can't use it. Again, people don't like being insta-killed by the masses who refuse to use weapons that don't kill in milliseconds, so they leave. Then people cry about teams being unbalanced and servers being empty. Make your bed and lie in it.

                      The M60 will get nerfed (like the 1911), that's why I use the MG-36. They didn't learned from BF Vietnam it seems.

                        Yeah, they did a great job with the M60 after the nerf in that game.

                          so if you get killed by a noob does that not make you lower than a noob? Also if a noob dies in the forest does anyone hear it?

                            Re: M60 noobs

                            the MG36 is a nice gun yes, but you can't full auto the thing from the hip or scope and get kills across a map

                            the M60 is a gun where, even without a scope you just line the guy up, hold fire and then just follow the hit indicators

                            combine that with 100 rounds and its no wonder people who don't know what burst firing is use it

                            whack a 4x scope on it and you can basically outsnipe anything as well let a lone you can basically fire from the hip for as long as you want and you can kill the guy in front of you

                            other guns have drawbacks or limitations, currently I use the M60 as a rage gun when I really can't be ****ed because I know how stupidly ****ing easy it is to kill anyone with it

                            I know nerfing is frowned upon because of past battlefields but really the M60 is quite ridiculous, I play the game with friends who used to play CS with me and they think the same tbh

                            I just hope they don't totally destroy the gun like the vietnam version, it should still be useful but not the I can kill anything over any range by holding fire gun it is now

                              What do you mean no nerfs? If they made wrong, they need to fix it.

                                o thats right because people dont want to learn the guns. they just want easy kills. and when someone gets an easy kill so to speak, people cry.

                                Also when you get killed and dont know from where and you see what killed you, you blame the gun. but infact blame yourself for not being aware.
                                Some things you've mentioned such as learning how to use guns to their best, getting headshots -- these are some of the things that constitute skill. M60 gets you same or better results without having any skill. A good player might do just as well with MG36, but a bad one will always use M60. It's an overpowered gun, and so is the tube.
