lmgs are now the long range asset. (but is much worse close and medium)
Yes I understand that. But I think Relic should change it around: G43 should be the long range asset but LMG should only be close to medium range.
I mean for god sake G43 is a long range Rifle, WITH SCOPE. I mean SCOPE for better aiming at far range, not to be god as medium and close.
And MG usually got shitty long range accuracy. They should be good in medium and close range.
I understand that in the last patch, G43 was OP. But they should nerf it when enemy get in medium or close range, not the other way around.
I fear that Russian play will start playing with the Guard + ISU doctrine now.

Guys, may I ask what is your way to counter Russian Sniper Spam ? I saw some people get 2 snipers, wipe out Grenadiers try to close it at them. Wait for 2CP and get guards, upgrade with DP-28. No, German Rifle Grenade will not do anything good because good Rus player will move always when they see the animation.
Then they start moving Guard at front, sniper behind them. A 222 try to close in will get button, Grenadiers try to rush in with get eat by sniper and DP-28.
Then they go Tier 3 to get M3, T34 and wait for ISU. with the T34 can fight tank better now, they will use it to wait for the " russian tank destroyer "
And no no, I just simply ask how are you going to counter that ? I try gren with G43 and 222 and mostly I failed.
