M-1000 Maxigun — Heavy Penetration AP4 (Balanced) 2026-09-24

A Mod for Helldivers 2
M-1000 Maxigun — Heavy Penetration AP4 (Balanced) akl_mod_preview_image
The Maxigun always looked like it should punch through something heavier than it actually does. This variant fixes that without turning it into a monster.

What it does
  • Armor penetration: 3/3/3/0 → 4/4/4/0 (AP4)
  • Base damage: 80 → 90
  • Everything else stays vanilla: durable damage, RPM, ammo, recoil, ergonomics, spin-up

What it does NOT do
  • It does not remove the firing movement lock. You still root in place while shooting, exactly like vanilla.
  • No stat inflation, no one-shot nonsense. The goal is a gun that feels fun and finally relevant against heavier armor, not a win button.

Compatibility​

Yes, it finally works with the other M-1000 mod now.
You can enable both Free Firing Movement and AP4 Balanced at the same time without them fighting each other. If both are enabled, you get:
  • AP4
  • 90 base damage
  • Free movement while firing

I’m waiting for Bingus to adapt the Loader to the updated engine so I can update the mod. Please be patient and, above all, support Bingus more than me: he’s the real hero of this “war” against devs who seem to confuse improving their game with putting obstacles in the way of those who do.

Would love to see your take on an HMG buff as well, because dear god does it need one.
Even something simple and minor like +1 spare mags and slightly more base accuracy+less recoil would go a looong way in making it not utter crap compared to any other MG in the game or, most notably, the AMR, its direct competitor, that actually functions better at the role of a generalist machinegun than the titular machineguns for some reason.
