Gameplay

• The Maximi ammo box holds 75 rounds.
  • The Maximi has a long reload time as a belt-fed machine gun.
• The Maximi is fitted with a deployable bipod.
• Every 4th round is a tracer round.
• The sights for the Maximi include Specter (1-4×) only.
  • The SpecterDR (1-4×) optical sight allows the user to see enemies from long distances easily and engage enemies at longer ranges without the need to zero the weapon. The variable zoom function allows for increased versatility in target acquisition across different ranges.
• The Maximi shares its damage model with the FN MAG (M240B, M240G, L7A2, C6A1, and Mag58). However, it has a considerably lower accuracy due to its lineage with FN Minimi.
  • The 702 rounds per minute rate of fire is in the middle of the pack for an automatic weapon.
  • Compared to the prevalent Soviet PKM, the Maximi has lower damage, a higher rate of fire, and better muzzle velocity.
• The Maximi is classified in-game as the Medium Machine Guns. Medium Machine Guns have extremely uncontrollable sway, inadequate point fire responsiveness, and excessive recoil. Sway and recoil can be significantly reduced via prone or bipod.
  • They output most suppression effects and are effective at medium to long ranges.
  • The Maximi has relatively better hip-fire recoil than other Medium Machin Guns and point of fire control due to its shorter length.
• Firing the weapon with the bipod deployed is always preferred, creating a highly stable and accurate fire support platform. If the bipod cannot be used, firing the gun from the prone position is the next best option.
  • Firing in short bursts will increase the overall accuracy. It will also conserve ammunition.
• The Maximi will not hurt hostile armored vehicles, but it can be used effectively against Technicals, Transports, or Logistics Trucks to kill or wound the occupants. It will also destroy Motorcycles.
  • The Maximi can penetrate bulletproof windows on light vehicles.
