## Gameplay Information

The **"War Machine"** is a Primary weapon introduced in the 15.0.0 update.

## Appearance

It is a rather bulky and water-cooled machine gun with a large barrel typical to the machine gun from WWI. On the first end is the pistol-like handle, similar to both the "Rampage" and "Overdrive". The receiver itself bears heavy resemblance to that of Heavy Killer. Under the receiver in question (adjacent to the magazine box) comes with a water tank that connects to the barrel for cooling purposes. On top comes with an iron sight.

## Performance

It fires normal bullets automatically. The bullets it fires have instant travel time. Moreover, it has a water tank, which helps cool the barrel during sustained fire.

When reloading, the player takes out the heavy magazine and puts the new magazine to the slot. It has no delay mechanics.

## Strategy

It deals healthy damage and has a decently high fire rate, massive ammo, and hefty mobility. Accuracy of this weapon is quite good, if not perfect.

### Tips

* Aim at the head to do heavy damage.
* Use this to tear down heavily armored players in multiple successions due to its damage.
* This is extremely accurate, so take this as your advantage.
* Try not to stand still while firing this weapon.
* Use this weapon to ambush unwary Sniper users.
* Use the Singular Grenade and then fire them. This weapon is excellent in tandem with the use of Singular Grenade.
* This weapon's fire rate is really good so if you miss you still have a lot of shots. On the flip side, the high fire rate will deplete ammunition fast if opponent circle strafes.
* Do not worry about its barrel, as it does NOT overheat, thanks to its water tank.
* This can target air enemies with ease for its accuracy.
* Due to this having a slightly-prolonged reloading time, it is recommended to reload at a slightly non-exposed spot. Once done reloading, continue on attacking.
* Useful for easily shredding enemy armor and HP.

### Counters

* Area damage can pick off its users easily.
* Pick off its users from long ranges.
* Using long ranged weapons will allow you to easily snipe these users, however, be mindful that a skilled player could still hit you from that range.
* Shotgun, Flamethrower or even Electro-thrower weapons will easily beat these users at close ranges.
* Flank its users while they are unaware.
* High mobility weapons could be used to escape these users.
* This weapon has atrocious mobility, therefore strafe and jump around and use speedy weapons with high mobility to render the user defenseless.
* It has an fairly-loud firing sound, allowing you to find its users when he fires.
