One of Black Ops 6’s most overpowered attachments has received a buff with some quiet changes that you may have missed. 

Even though weapon tuning has been done away with, Call of Duty’s create-a-class system still allows for some big customization options for different weapons. 

Picking the right attachments is key to winning gunfights and games in multiplayer, and as a result, they go through plenty of changes of their own. These tweaks can come alongside the big seasonal updates where a raft of weapons go through the buffs and nerfs process, or via hotfixes to address those more annoying add-ons.

With Season 3 just around the corner, many fans are expecting big changes. However, there has been an update already to the LMG Belt-Fed attachment that is making it even more powerful than before.

LMG Belt-Fed is more powerful than ever

That’s right, the attachment, which was added in the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles event, has already been seen as overpowered because of how it adds more ammo to a magazine and lets you get off more shots.

As Redditor AKMike99 noted, the attachment has been buffed, increasing the number of shots you can get off before a weapon reaches its overheating point.

“Pre-patch I was able to fire about 45-50 bullets with a single pull of the trigger before overheating depending on what gun I was using. Post patch the overheat value has increased to more like 65-75 rounds depending on which one you are using.”

Call of Duty guru XclusiveAce backed this up too, revealing that PU-21, XMG, GPMG-7, and Feng 82 all have increased rounds before overheating numbers. 

Their overheating periods have been changed too, with the PU-21’s increasing to 4.9 seconds, the XMG coming down to 5 seconds, the GPMG-7 is now 4.75 seconds, and the Feng 82 is up to 4.78 seconds.

These changes make things more consistent across the board, but will allow players to show more love to the XMG especially. 

With such a change being made prior to the new season, it seems unlikely that they will be tweaked at all in the new update. However, we’ll have to wait and see what comes on April 2.
