well, in reality... with ordinary rifle you can shoot ppl up to 400m... with MG up to 800m... but that horrible 0.32 MG... I almost quit playing PR because of that bs.

I would add, when you're facing 10 enemies... MG is the only thing that will keep 8 of them under cover. BUT those 2 riflemen will kill you.

So I would say - get one rifleman as your fireteam buddy with you, if you can... to shoot those who pop their heads to shoot you.
And yes, in a good LOCATION, you can kill sooo many enemies... Location is very important.

ONE MORE THING TO CONSIDER
Support gun is the only weapon that you can not run away from (zig-zag). Jumping, strafing, dolphin-diving... doesn't matter. Support gun will get you.

So true king-kong, I had some great moments as an infantry squad in kashan with the support gun ( sidenote: Hope the british get their mini-me or w/e it is called soon ;P )

That gun held off a squad coming out of a bunker, was insane... though I did die, I provided HUGE cover due to suppressive/shoot to kill fire.

Thanks to .6 I have a new respect for the support gun in heavy infantry situations.

When I played BF2 i was good on point. On PR im not as good. But as support I rip teams apart.
I love it. I murdered a whole squad tonight. 1 after 1, all within 1-2 minutes
Great guide. I'm glad I figured this stuff out.

Location is key forsure.
