M249

Overview
The M249 is a heavy machine gun which players can get in the blackmarket for a very good price (66 Credits). Hospital Overwatch will spawn with one

As a machine-gun, the firerate of this weapon is unmatched: it can unleash a 100 bullet hell onto foes. However, beware of the recoil! Even when using the sights, the strong recoil will make your shots quickly inaccurate. As a result, it is best not to spam the M249 at long range. At close range, do not use the sights to keep track of the enemy's movement (the sights will actually block your view quite a lot while slowing your rotation speed)

The M249 is currently the only weapon in the game which doesn't have infinite ammunition. Instead of the classic "Inf", players will instead see "250". This number doesn't represent the number of bullets, rather the number of magazine. As such, it features 250 belts of 100 bullets each for a grand total of 2500 shots: players are really unlikely to ever run out of bullet...
