MG-206 Heavy Machine Gun (Realistic) v1.0.0

A Mod for Helldivers 2
MG-206 Heavy Machine Gun (Realistic) akl_mod_preview_image
My Realistic collection of weapons aims to rebalance Helldivers 2's weak weaponry into competitive choices with reasonable, mooostly realistic tweaks.

The original MG-206 kicks hard, sprays wide for a bipod-mounted machine gun and runs dry after only three drums. This mod turns it into the sustained-fire weapon it should be.

- Recoil reduced by 25% (horizontal 32.5 to 24.4, vertical 55 to 41.3)
- Spread reduced from 5/5 to 3/3
- Fire rate modes increased from 450/600/750 to 600/750/900 RPM
- Spare drums increased from 2 to 3
- Durable damage increased from 35 to 50

It now holds a total combat load of 400 rounds. The E/MG-101 HMG Emplacement fires the same round, so it gets the durable damage increase too.

Made with great help from my friend Claude.

Could you add magnification options for the scope?

I'd prefer increasing the ammo capacity per drum magazine instead of adding more drum magazines in total. Frequent reloading is clearly the weakness of a heavy machine gun.
