Yes but bringing it up everytime while the answer is obvious and well known is useless and annoying.

Its been a well established fact on this forum that in real life, german MG troops were trained to fire the MG34 and 42 from a standing position known as the "assualt position" in controlled bursts that were accurate to about 50-70 yards or so, as a way of giving assualt cover, and using the MG as a kind of shotgun.  The problem is that in this game, you'd have people abusing it nonstop, so its not in game for that reason.

Ramboing with the mg42/30cal in dods was always a bit fun/silly.  But it was ridiculous so it fit more in that game.

It could be added in a way similar to PR's MG deployment system, where you could fire it standing up but you move very slow well doing it and have very bad recoil.

This is actually something I support adding to the Bren as well, because while it could be fired standing up I doubt it was an easy feat to do well running. The fact that you can do this in game effectively makes it into a high powered SMG at short ranges.

What shit?  I laid it out plain and simple.  Yes in real life it happened.  No it won't be ingame because of balencing/spamming issues.  What shit?

Figure of speech, don't take it personally. I find these recurring discussions amusing.
