So after having not used mounted M2s for awhile I decided to try a couple out on my humvee-turned-truck, and see about using it as a mobile base defense.  
As it turns out, mounted machineguns still aren’t worth the bother because it takes forever for each burst to finish, which slows down gameplay massively.

What I would like to suggest is a toggle for bullet animations, so that those of us who don’t feel obliged to watch each and every bullet ssssslllllooooowwwwwlllllyyyyy travel to it’s target can still use turrets.

I mean seriously why hasn’t this been fixed yet? I’m not one to complain about adding more content, but a major gameplay issue like this one really should come before the next new flavor of mountain dew.

I dunno man, There’s only one flavour of Mountain Dew here, cataclysm is the only way I can find out about new kinds.

All joking aside, yeah, I’ve got like 500 .50 rounds in my sandrat and I can never use them because the burst animation takes FOR-FUCKING-EVER.
