It is not a machine gun, it is a sub machine gun.
They mean the MG42 when they say mobile mg, I mean… that is what it is called when you kill with it; they obviously meant the MG42.
The skills should be left alone, except that this bug that is making the sten not overheat should be stopped.
Heavy Weapons Level 2: Heavy Weapon Proficiency
The skill title is not “guns that overheat profiency”, it is HEAVY WEAPONS PROFIENCY.
The sten is NOT a heavy weapon, it is a light weapon. Proven by the fact that you gain light weapon XP for using it.
Not compared to an MG42 they arent. Anyway, the GAME considers them light weapons.
Im sure the way this is a result of the way overheating is handled in the game…
Lvl 2 heavy weapons decreases the overheating of weapons handled by the user…
A medic handling a fixed or tank MG who gets level 2 heavy weapons will have less overheating…
The sten overheating is (in the games sense) the same as any other over heating…
It might be possible to either make sten overheating different, or make it so covert ops never get lvl 2 heavy weapons advantage… but it is what it is for now…
