Resting your MG and MG42 overheating

[eager thorn]

add the ability to rest your MG on your squad mate’s shoulder. It would be very cool if in an intense situation your running, getting shot at, and being able to return fire if you have a teammate to brace your machine gun on. To balance this I feel like the one acting as the support can’t use any other gun besides a pistol, also the mg should have a bit more recoil than if it was just deployed on a regular surface. Also I never noticed but the MG42 has absolutely zero overheating and that is extremely incorrect, the MG42 could fire for maybe 3-4 seconds max untill the barrel melted off. Please fix this

If the MG is resting on a soldiers shoulder then they should not be able to use any fire arm and instead should hold onto the bipod to brace the weapon.

Overheating been requested for years but who knows if we’ll ever see it. Most people have complained it would ruin the balance of the game and make the MG42 useless. Which in reality it would be since suppression is useless

Overheating is not a fun mechanic

It’s necessary to balance machine guns

Not fun? Oh im sorry, there’s a lot of things that aren’t fun in HLL, there’s a thing called historical accuracy. All I want same as many others is for the most historically authentic game on the market to be as accurate as possible

HLL = historically accurate
HAAHAH please. Its a video game. It has to be fun, not a chore. The game is on life support as it is, you dont want to turn people off. Dont know what this obsession is with making classes all equally balanced too, its a team game.
