As a result, some fans are frustrated that LMGs have largely been left behind with few buffs compared to their compact counterparts. There are a few notable LMGs in Warzone\u2019s history, but when compared to the legendary names on the AR side of the game, it\u2019s clear that the weapon class has never really stood up. The Bruen, MG82, and Bren have all had some time in the sun, but they simply don\u2019t carry the deadweight of the rest of the category far enough for fans to feel justified in using them, so now players are calling for a major overhaul. Warzone fans believe LMGs have been overshadowed in a major way The main argument being made in favor of LMGs is that they don\u2019t hold a significant advantage over the AR class in any way despite having the built-in drawbacks of lower movement speed and slow reloads. One passionate fan pointed the blame at Vanguard\u2019s ten attachment system which they claim makes it too easy to cover up a gun\u2019s flaws. As a result, the system makes every AR a viable option while never doing the same for the literal big guns. That same fan went on to ask why anyone would bother lugging around an LMG if the ARs are going to continue to have all of the utility and power they currently do. \u201cThe whole LMG class has been dead content outside of 3 months in the last 2 years,\u201d they remarked. The hope of many is that things change with the release of Modern Warfare 2 and that Warzone\u2019s weapon design is restructured in full. If there was ever a time to bring sweeping changes to the meta, a brand new incarnation of the game would certainly be the time to do it, but it remains to be seen if the community will get their wish.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Warzone players call for major LMG buffs after AR meta takeover ActivisionWarzone\u2019s Assault Rifles may be at their strongest point since the game\u2019s early days.
