LMGs

LMG stands for L ight M achine G un and is one of the nine weapon categories of surviv.io. LMGs usually have a high rate of fire, long range, moderate damage per bullet, large magazine size, and extra damage to cover. What sets LMGs apart from other automatic weapons such as Assault Rifles or SMGs is that LMGs slow the player down drastically when they are fired. In surviv.io, there are five LMGS; the QBB-97, the DP-28, the BAR M1918, the M249, and the PKP Pecheneg. All of these guns are rare in the game, but, if found, can be very effective in defeating enemies.

Strategies
An LMG is most effective at medium to long range, although they are vulnerable to Shotguns and Weapons with a high rate of fire, such as SMGs, at close range. LMGs have a lot of ammo making them effective against group attacks. LMGs are also useful for destroying breakable structures because the LMGs are the only gun types to have damage multipliers on obstacles that players are using for shelter. LMGs are also great at providing suppression fire, which is useful when teammates are healing, reloading, moving, or being revived.

Trivia

 * In real life, the PKP Pecheneg is an MMG ( M edium M achine G un), however in-game it's an LMG.
