Gameplay Tips

 * The MG-43 is great for general use, but it's recommended to use it sparingly for times when it's needed most, such as fighting bug breach hoards or larger enemies, as there is a very limited amount of ammo.
 * It also has medium armor penetration, meaning it can pierce the armor of moderately-sized enemies.
 * The weapon becomes more controllable and accurate while stationary. Being crouched dramatically increases this as well, with prone being the best option for accuracy and control.
