    PKM vs. MG36

    Ok, this is after 1.2 patch, which is better, PKM or mG36. I'm downloading 1.2 now so i'm asking u. According to the INI files, the PKM is actually more accurate than the MG36, is this true? All opinions greatly appreaciated.

    The PKM now inflicts more damage then ever before and is more accurate than the G36C. It's the new infantry nuclear cannon.

    The MG36 is good with a high rate of fire and takes forever to overheat, but not quite as damaging as the PKM is.

      Re: PKM vs. MG36

      all the machineguns kick ass now, but i think the worst one is the mg36. why?, because its very balanced, sounds crazy i know but think of it this way, a machinegun has a specific usage it excells in. theres heavy machineguns (pkm, rpk) and theres cqc (saw, type 95). the mg36 doesnt have the rate of fire of the cqc guns so it cant handle as many people at once in cqc, and its got medium damage so it cant take out those cars/people as fast.

      the best mg for assault by far is the saw, and the best for support is the pkm.

        PKM is more accurate/damaging at longer ranges, but the MG36's high rate of fire makes it better for short range. Also note that the '36 has a useful burst fire feature.

          PKM is has the same accuracy on par with G36C on first 3 shots, and same damage.

          Sorry, I just don't think a gun that has a whooping 10 max deviation (MG36), about 4-10 times larger than all other support MGs, can even be compared to PKM now. MG36 is overnerfed.

                also, I think support guns are truly balanced now. MGs are MEANT TO BE FEARED. they sacrificed their mobility for firepower.

                  I don't agree.

                  The support weps were fine in 1.12.

                  Getting top of round on a regular basis in karkand using just support and not spawncamping should prove that.

                  Of course I can't prove that I did that (which I did in 1.12)...but still....

                  They were fine before and now are too accurate...

                    I could do the same too, but my heart bleed everytime I see a spec op toss C4, facing a deployed PKM user who is actually firing, and the bullets were going all around the spec op.

                    I hate it when someone complain about gun accuracy being too high. What's next, giving everyone water pistol? this isn;t noob tube, you have to aim it, since when is aiming a wrong part of FPS?

                      Umm your first sentence contradicted your second sentence.

                      It takes more skill to kill people with unaccurate weapons than with accurate weapons. DUH! I mean its easier for me to kill people with support now than before. But that doesn't mean its right because if you had skill in 1.12 you could own with support weps...so no reason to change the accuracy.

                      And as far as not killing people at point blank range thats why you always have to be scoped in, even if the guy is two feet from you, it increases accuracy.

                        1. No, they weren't.

                        2. *Now* they have a realistic accuracy. What, you think that just coz its a machinegun, that its gotta spray like a shotty? NOT QUITE THE CASE.

                          shooting a gun that has a large cone of deviation generated randomly means you have to factor in luck, and now I can depend on myself for giving that PKM headshot.

                            Look, this is an arcade game not a sim.

                            Theres a reason everyone on karkand is holding a pkm, its because its too easy.

                            Even if it wasn't realistic before, you could still own with it. Do you honestly want me to list every single unrealistic thing in this game?

                              The pkm is awesome. Got a 20 kill streak with it on Karkand. They're a bit too good now though. The SAW if thought was pretty dam good at medium distance too. I don't whether this means i'm good are bad but since the patch my average scores have rocketed!!!

                              EDIT: ^^^ If everyone had PKM's then surely the good players would still come on top, no?
