Overview[edit]
The MachineGun is a generic development LMG included as a test weapon. It offers decent DPS, moderate recoil, and a medium magazine, but lacks the defining quirks of other machine guns like the Brick Spitter (SAW) or Boris the Beltfed (PKM). It’s functional but flavourless — a dev placeholder that lingers in the Mystery Box.
Beast Upgrades[edit]
- MachineGunBeast1 – Placeholder upgrade; mild stat increases.
- MachineGunBeast2 – Prototype continuation; still generic.
- MachineGunBeast3 – Placeholder final form.
Tips[edit]
- A curiosity for collectors, but better options exist in every category.
- Outperformed by true LMGs in terms of both ammo economy and fun factor.
- Treat it as a dev relic — don’t expect it to survive into full release.
Trivia[edit]
- One of the earliest LMGs coded, mainly used for testing sustained fire.
- Sometimes nicknamed “Vanilla MG” by devs.
- Its Beast upgrade chain is deliberately unfinished, serving as a reminder of its placeholder status.
