The Best: MACHINE GUNS

What are the best weapons in Enlisted? What are the best machine guns in Enlisted? Is the MG 34 better than the MG 42? Is the BAR better than the MG 42? Is the Browning M1918A2 better than the DP-29? What are the top 10 machine guns in Enlisted? What about the top 20? I answer all of these questions and more in this video.

EDITS (new MGs have been released): - The Colt Monitor MG would probably slot in around 5th, as it's just another Browning pretty much that's better than the BARA1 but worse than the A2. - The Browning M1918A6 could be anywhere around the top 5 too, depending on what you PREFER in an MG. If you prefer shot dispersion, it would be to the low end of 4th. If you prefer pure mag size, then maybe 1st.

[@theodorechill]

Condors MG is sooo fun. I got 4 of them on 1 squad 😂

[@spld3rp1g]

Did not expect the MG42 being so low, especially considering the better sights and more manageable recoil standing compared to the mg34 (with and without the drum mags). Personally i switched to the MG42 after the LMG nerfs a while back, it's easier to control and seems to be more capable at longer ranges. Reload time and hip fire is atrocious tho.

[@macobuzi]

Yes, the fact that he put MG42 much below MG13 feels very wrong. I can do both defending and assaulting with MG42 in Berlin very effectively, It has cleaner sight than MG34, very accurate and it seems he doesn't know how to play it right. With MG42 you only need to tap firing all the time and will ensure to take down the target even at long range, without bipod, thanks to its extreme RPM, every tap is like a shotgun. Regards Mg13, it has a very similar playing style to MG42 but the 20 rounds hurt a lot and it clearly inferior to MG42 due to higher recoil and lower RPM. Because of that lower RPM, it is less reliable in tap firing than MG42 but you still have to do that because of 20 rounds magazine, it's very cursed! I would replace it with MG34 or MG42 as soon as i can.

[@MajorMcDonalds]

Thank you so much man!

[@EnlightenedEnlisted]

Going to have to redo this when they put in the new recoil mechanic, I would be interested to see what you think about each one after the update.

[@MajorMcDonalds]

Oh yeah it looks as though the recoil is gonna get a hell of a lot worse for MGs, though, if the recoil change is proportional across all weapons, I guess the list will stay mostly the same? We’ll see if I’m right or very wrong in the update!

[@FOX1MX]

who would of thought the best MG in the game was Polish Our weapon designers were really experienced but we just didn't have the material to mass produce them also we didn't have as much man. And we did show what we are capable of in the Polish-Bolshevik war \/ 1920-1939 Poland underrated. We get no attention in the war although our weapons were brilliant, our man were brave we had division 303 which annihilated 3 to 4 times as much Germans than the British in the battle of Brittain Someone spread the word about Polish and Finnish Military in the war Both wars Polish and Finnish invasions get left out. They're are so interesting but no one adds them to games (I'm looking at you Enlisted) or barely talks about them.

[@chefinitupp07]

i personally prefer the mg42 mainly because the sights on it are better than the mg 34 and maybe if the sights had the zeroing thing on the left removed i would prefer it

[@jonahk6989]

good shit bro keep it up

[@chris_hisss]

Good stuff! Thanks for dropping the weapon announcer drop pitch thing. I kinda forgot about it until I watched one of your older ones. Need more Rifle info now that they been buffed

[@MajorMcDonalds]

Haha I am actually quite delighted you remembered that from the other videos, glad you appreciate it! Yes, the rifle one is sadly quite out of date now... Maybe it needs a revamp ;)

[@Soupraa_UK]

Great vid! :)

[@jdosser]

I saw my favourite LMG at number 4 and thought, what could beat it Lets say, after watching the rest of the video, i agree on 3 and 2, not so much on 1, but I can understand why it's number 1

[@MajorMcDonalds]

For the majority of the time I was ranking them I had the Browning M1918A2 as 1st, but then I realised how the Browning wz HAD to be higher as it's just a lot better than the A2. The others in between in 2 and 3 could probably have been rearranged with 1 for any order, a lot of it is personal preference, so I understand anyone who says whichever of the top 4 is 1st!

[@lear_the_cat]

Thank you for the video. After this review I have bought and tried new premium MG squads in Moscow and was very satisfied. It's was almost like I have returned to old prenerfed MGs.

[@MajorMcDonalds]

Amazing to hear it helped you! Do remember though that I don’t think most of the premium squads come with ‘other troop types’ like engineers or something, but the weapons and uniforms will still be unique :)

[@alexandermain5102]

Would love to see an updated version

[@danielwest2107]

Alot of people dnt aim down sites with mg's they hip fire which greatly changes which LMG's are best

[@MajorMcDonalds]

Exactly, and I tried to mention that a few times in the video :)

[@trygve3305]

I like the Breda, but i use it like i use a BAR, small bursts or single shot, and then i have a very specific setup for Breda soldiers.

[@bean8008]

This derserves more views

[@FreddieDowds-dx3ju]

the charlton rifle is honestly better used in semi auto mode. When you use it in full auto, it encourages you to spray, and you hit absolutely nothing with it, but it will effectively hit a target in single shots (only when the weapon is mounted onto something)

[@eastmsvie]

actually, use can use take the mg42, rush into a house full filled by enemies, and walk out like nothing happened *only do this when you dont have grenade*

[@shiftytayler8943]

[@yaaaboi5902]

dang im for sure addicted now whenever im not playing enlisted im watching

[@connorjordanng8898]

The Breda Mod.30 is one of my favorite machine guns in Enlisted. It is unique as an Italian machine gun and has nice iron sights to aim with. You can do well with any machine gun as long as you fire in bursts instead of holding down the trigger.

[@AKX-DTGRSMP]

Now, where to fit the Browning M1919A6 in to the list? Probably doesn't need to.

[@fritz2622]

Very high video and edit quality for so low subscribers count! Great video ,you deserve more subscribers although Enlisted is not very popular.

[@zemog5004]

Man you are so under rated it’s sad but just know I will always support you

[@cheeseconsumer8528]

I agree with most thing on this list but the fact that the charlton is at 18 is an atrocity. It’s honestly better than the fg 42 II simply because your using it wrong tap fire tap fire it and it will kill every Mario and Luigi

[@arnasDurnas]

Was planning on not subbing cause I thought you would have at least 500k subs and I would be just another ant in the colony but only 5k?! You’re crazy underrated mate keep it up 👍

[@MajorMcDonalds]

Thank you so much!

[@yamatokurusaki5790]

9:38 they should add selector to the mg34 so it can fire single and auto (as it really did with it's two staged trigger but for sake of simplicity let's make it an selector) I kinda wonder about the fire rate the zb26 cuz as someone who is Czech and do look on the weapons all i can find about the fire rate is that it's much much lower around 500 not this crazy thing Also i love the polish BAR i got it when it was available... And i fuuking love it and not regretting the purchase

[@elliottsmith10]

we need the .30 cal for the us in normandy it’s historically accurate and the germans can use the mg-42 and 34 i think it is.

[@zwtsch]

so, when will the pacific campaign weapons get reviewed?

[@polakgaming5703]

Wz in name Browning wz. 1928 is like Browning model 1928 because it was made in 1928

I guessed that was the case but didn’t actually know it for sure, so thanks!

[@Litterbugtaylor]

Get the madsen down to 19th, 20 has to go to the mg13, charlton up to like 4th after the mg42, polish bar and dp or dt

[@adamek1xd]

Now top 1 would be BAR Monitor, with engineer in squad and awsome perks from start.

[@kre1187]

9 months late, but I hardly use MG's. Assaulters or semiauto riflemen just feel better. I only use the MG squad for the HMG, i just run as the engineer.

[@Nebulachadlazzar]

What is your opinion on the mg 45 I am not sure of the release date of this premium pack but I am curious on what you would rate it.

[@MajorMcDonalds]

Honestly, I don’t think it’s amazing. It has too high of a rate of fire, hence making the recoil uncontrollable and you spend too long reloading it, especially as it it only has 50 rounds per mag. Some people will say it will kill enemies before they kill you because of the rate of fire, and that is true, but the negatives are too much for me personally! You can try out the premium squad too in-game, if you click on it and click the try out this squad button so you can decide :)

[@Nebulachadlazzar]

@@MajorMcDonalds I have tired it, is a nice weapon I would agree but unless your mounted it isn’t very effective.But nonetheless as a berlin germany player below level 10 I find it impossible to control the mg34 without mounting.I guess that takes some skill however.

[@ggpl8117]

Higher firerate is not better than large mag size in MG's biggest strength of MGs is their sustained fire capability its a glorified SMG if you have to reload after spraying for less than a second

[@alexnovak3319]

think bredais also available in stalingrad campaign

[@JoeL-ji7uw]

"Breda 2.Second reload"

[@xenosbane8543]

So the best MG availile to normandy axis is the MG 34?

[@Dysphorid]

Before I'm going to watch, I'm almost sure the polish browning will be top three easily. I love that beast for normandy axis.

[@MajorMcDonalds]

I don't think you'll be surprised then 👀

[@mathiasrryba]

I find it best used in semi automatic to be honest. Full auto when entering and clearing buildings.

[@strikeforce5331]

BAR needs higher recoil lmao.

[@jeansman9060]

So usually for German mgs, do I pick vertical recoil reduction or horizontal?

[@MajorMcDonalds]

Almost always pick vertical recoil as almost all weapons have more vertical than horizontal recoil. Some MGs do have the same vertical and horizontal recoil, in which case you can probably pick between them whatever is most comfortable for you when using it

[@suspecm6316]

Damn, could have sworn the Breda was actually better than most of the mg's. Altough the mg's itself are something I don't really like using since they kept nerfing them.

[@MajorMcDonalds]

Yeah the Breda is not great, but if you know how to use it it can be not awful. But besides I was comparing f2p vs paid in terms of the MG 34, not the Breda, because you get the MG 34 for free which is very good. But yeah, I don't even use MGs nowadays because of the nerfs, so you're right about that

I obky disagree with the DPM. The giant pan magazine blocking the screen. And not that good either. And I strongly suggest to get the MG30, for me in the top 5.

[@MajorMcDonalds]

I can see your point, but it doesn’t block THAT much of the screen imo. MG30 I never had the pleasure of using since it was in a premium squad that you can no longer get, but it does sound as though it must have been good!

Bren is absolutely hopeless

[@MG-ec9qx]

By far worst shot dispersion? The MG42 has only 4.41% worse dispersion as the MG34, but with lowwer recoil and a higer rate of fire and better sights.

[@MajorMcDonalds]

I meant "by far" mostly in relation to the majority of the weapons on the list, not just the MG 34. Lower recoil doesn't really matter if it has a high rate of fire as they cancel each other out tbh, though the higher rate of fire than the 34 is unnecessary, it doesn't need to be that quick, and just serves to empty your mag quicker and needs to reload more, AND reloading takes much longer. Better sights is subjective too, I prefer on the 34.
