Hello. My name is marioKarrion from Bandito Gaming
and this the Weapon Analysis of the M240B Light Machine gun
This American Light Machine Gun is a weapon available only to the Support kit in Battlefield 3
It's belt fed and supports by default 100 rounds or
200 rounds when using the extended magazine.
The 240B is an automatic light machine gun meant to be used in the medium range.
To get this weapon, you will have to score 90,000 support points.
Compared to all other belt-fed Light Machine Guns, the M240B has the highest damage in
short and long distance the highest suppression effect, the second
fastest bullet speed and the second longest distance before the bullet disappears.
But not everything is perfect, its speed is the second slowest, the recoil is the highest
and the reloading time is the second slowest one.
The M240B looks promising considering all the great attributes this weapon has, but
is it like that in practice?
Belt-fed Light Machine Guns are always difficult to use due to the ridiculous recoil all of
them have, although the M240B is the one with higher
damage it's also the one with the higher recoil and the one with the slowest speed.
So here's the big question, on the battlefield, is it as good as it looks?
Like everything in life, it all depends, fast paced gamemodes like Team Deathmatch or Conquest
Domination are probably better with a faster weapon, but the high ammo capacity
is always useful, even when the crazy recoil.
On the other side if you read your map correctly and you flank your enemies, this Light Machine
Gun is perfect for taking down a lot of enemies. Equipping the laser sight
instead of the extended magazine is better for those occasions.
If you have to defend a choke point or a particular objective in the game, extended magazine and
the bipod are the best attachments.
I like using this weapon when playing some Rush or Conquest on small to medium maps,
or when playing Team Deathmatch, but be aware in order to be effective, you
need to shot first because the overall speed of any Assault Rifle or Carbine is still higher
than the M240B
In all cases I like using the COVER specialization, to give me an advantage, and a revolver, which
is most of the cases the MP412 REX
It takes some time to get used to this weapon and it could make you angry when loosing gun
fights I know some people really like it, but to
me, the time spent to master this weapon is not worth it, there are better alternatives,
like the M249 or the TYPE 88 still, is not a bad weapon, but it will definitely
take you some time to become an expert on it.
