[Killing Floor 2] Minigun - Weapon Guide

Six barrels, 1200 rounds per minute, and a lot of dead ZEDs. The minigun is the newest and flashiest weapon the Commando's arsenal, but how does it hold up to its competition?

This weapon is for when you just want to stand on a choke point and hold down the tripper till everything dies. Sounds alright.

[@forwhomthebelltrolz]

You always point out the obvious?

[@farenhitegr6493]

I feel as if this should hold at least 300 rounds given the monstrous magazine it feeds from, and of course, 999 reserve ammo.

[@memes_the_dna_of_the_soul5487]

No either 900 or 1200. Because if you have 999 you're gonna have that one lazy 99 round mag.

[@farenhitegr6493]

@@memes_the_dna_of_the_soul5487 Fair enough. Maybe it could hold all ammo in the mag as an alternative solution.

[@MegaHellstrike]

That viewmodel... it's like the character is holding the minigun up to chest height lol

[@AshleyTheWolf259]

Digging deep into the logic too much m'tinks. =P

[@DratchGarou]

I wish this was an all-in on a spray and pray style for the commando, fully committing to just hosing down trash. Honestly with its heavy weight and low effective range due to the kick/accuracy, it feels more like something that would fit in the Support's Arsenal, rather than the Commando.

[@ZuZaarr]

Survivalist, this + AA-12

[@marcoramirez642]

Maybe this minigun could be some kind of crossperk between Commando and Support. Would be interesting to see it perform with Support's skills and passives

[@B_Skizzle]

I disagree. Support is the dedicated shotgun perk. The moment you give it something that’s not a shotgun, you set a dangerous precedent.

[@pooshkin6181]

@@B_Skizzle Well the LAW rocket launcher from the first game was a Support Specialist weapon at first, before the Demolitionist perk even existed. I can see the Minigun being in the arsenal of the Support.

[@Milordog1]

​@@B_Skizzle They gave Berserker guns, being a dedicated melee perk, and the world is still very much intact. Up the mag size, spread, stumble power (so much that it can stumble a charging FP unaided), and make it so that you have to set it up on some sort of mount to fire it and the minigun becomes useful as a weapon that helps the team hold an area, a support role. And that's what perks [should be]: a role, not a class of weapons. I'll stop there to refrain from digging into TWI, I hope they course correct this game. Shame to see what's becoming of it.

[@d.o.a7552]

Not giving dangles dlc keys is like tripwire shooting itself in the foot.

[@squirrely_wrath]

you can almost feel their desperation to squeeze out the last drops; so much for giving the game and tripwire one last chance.

[@atanarix5346]

Since I buy all the guns anyway, I had a test run with it, duo with a medic. The gun is not great for trigger discipline or running around and taking pot shots at chasing hordes. Ideally you want to have it for the boss waves. For endless if you have teammates that can shoulder the burden for you, like a support or survivalist with 20 weight limit you can ask them to hold your minigun if they dont pack a full load themselves. Having machinegunner and then a proc of zed time with the minigun is the closest thing to a "worth it" moment if you buy this weapon pack.

[@Combine96]

The way the character holds the minigun bothers me so much.

[@WolfieTheWuf]

Its like their arm is coming out of the top of their head :|

[@chommander7335]

for this grip its supposed to be held at the waist level

[@AwesomePolarBear]

I think the handle should have been held by the left hand and fired with the right... but I think it's this way so the arm isn't covering the screen when you're shooting it.

[@aukku_]

[@Slyslug]

The player view is in the lower chest, i do however agree it bothers me alot.

[@doorsareforopening]

I wish it was a one magazine, overheating type weapon, magazine skills increase the amount of rounds before overheating, and reload skills increase the cooling rate. To make it feel more like a minigun

[@eelwhite3388]

No high damage, no mobility, no ability to kill SC effectively, no ability to kill FP, no secondary wepon option, quiet lengthy preheating and reloading time, just a bigger Kriss without stumble power, what a piece of sXXt!

[@somethingelse9087]

@Daniel Wong Yes, in fact, many people's arms are attatched to their shoulders.

[@Delimon007]

The kriss shoots faster and actually has DPS, this gun does not lol

[@8eewee]

0:55 you mentioned a shoulder-mounted minigun which got me thinking. Fallout New Vegas actually has one in its lonesome road dlc (not a real-world example but it came to mind)

[@empty2892]

Payday 2 has one

[@selfelected3832]

finally an honest review thank you 👍🏆👍 I hope you don't mind if I state my own opinion about the minigun it's literally the worst version I ever played and I played a lot of games not only that I've seen a real one in operation The spread is way too far the sound is off and they should have gave you a backpack for ammo It's a minigun you shouldn't have to reload sorry if it seems like I'm being negative but this is just my opinion I hope you don't mind thank you for your honest opinion

[@yansidorov8075]

But it is true No matter what DLC we get, it is all trash Any free weapon is more powerful and "meta" We pay money for memes literally... I wish it was like KF1 when you get new weapons and it is WORTH Like the space gun you could get only on New Year event map More powerful than usual guns and everyone was happy

I have a similar opinion how to change the Minigun if I could. Also I would add a more realistic shooting sound. More like the sound of the *A-10 Warthog* or the sound of Payday 2's Minigun.

[@39genies]

for a better meme yes it does need a faster fire rate, atleast 2000rpm and make it rip zeds in half. Embrace the bullet hose TW. now we just need akimbo 1887 for a bigger meme

[@sandman4663]

Why would you want the minigun to do LESS damage?? It’s already pretty trash damage output. And on top of that, you cannot upgrade it. So. By late game, the tier 4 starter pistol feels a bit stronger per shot imo.

[@jamesjameson3771]

Minigun go brrr He's saying that it's ass, but it should lean into it's meme potential a little more. Like buying a Negev in CS:GO, or picking Tachanka in Siege.

[@danlagrone9316]

For the secondary I go totally off perk and use a Glock 18C

[@a0001521]

Yet again HRG weapons save the day

[@grimreaper492]

Minigun should get 2000 RPM instead of 1200 to actually feel like a minigun but get its weight increase to 12 or maybe even 15 and recoil increased (or increase weapon spread) since its actually relatively too easy to get headshots with this weapon in my experience, but getting headshots with minigun feels really off. The recoil increase and weapon spread decrease would definitely offset RPM increase. The RPM of 1200 right now is seriously off, it literally has the same RPM as a submachine gun (Kriss SMG). I think decreasing damage would be dumb since that makes no sense, the cartridge fired by the minigun is the same one used by FN-FAL. If you decrease accuracy and increase recoil then you are reducing the effective DPS. Playing minigun without the 150% magazine buff is not exploiting its huge magazine size and defeats the entire purpose of the weapon.

[@MercyWolff]

On endless this gun is hella fun no cap o3o such a nice weapon too bad not many games use the minigun as a primary to keep usually just a shitty killstreak or scorestreak lol glad i got kf2 lol
