LMGs

LMG stands for Light Machine Gun and is one of the eight weapon categories of surviv.io. LMGs have a large rate of fire and long range, moderate damage per bullet, large magazine size, and extra damage to cover. In surviv.io, the LMGs consist of the DP-28 and M249. Both guns are rare in the game, but if found can be very effective in defeating enemies.

M249
The M249 is an extremely rare, extremely powerful LMG like an upgraded DP-28. It has a clip size of 100 making it have the most ammo capacity along with having the longest reload time. It's best to reload when you are safe, even if your clip is not at 100. 5.56mm. Even if you have 10 or 20 bullets left it might save your life.

DP-28
The DP-28 is like the M249 but at a lesser extent as it has a clip size of 60 using 7.62mm. It is very useful in some situations as if you don't have the time to reload and like using LMGs then this is your go-to weapon since the M249 is extremely rare.

QBB-97
The QBB-97 is the M249 but to the lesser extent as it has a clip size of 75 rounds using 5.56mm and is a Bullpup Light Support Weapon its reload is quite small making it great for those who don't like reloading.

Strategies
An LMG can be an effective weapon at any 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 useful against gang bangs, (when you get attacked by more then one person). LMGs are also useful for destroying structures that players are hiding behind.
