What is your suggestion?
A: Increase the max ammo/ base ammo of LMGS or add more options to regain ammo.

How would this benefit the server?
A: Whenever I play MP heavy I constantly run out of ammo, and the only class that can give it is heavy, who aren't particularly abundant. Usually, this leads to me having to go and die just to get ammo back, which is a pain in the ass when trying to defend a location. I would personally like to see either an increase in the max ammo, or some other way to regen ammo; for example: Ammo regen while on a friendly point as an upgrade or maybe by default, more classes able to give ammo or placeable ammo crates that anyone can use to refill their ammo perhaps by CO's or R&D.

honestly, the idea to give HVY the Ability to place down an Ammo crate like Medic can a Medstation was always there, but either got ignored, or denied as far as im knowledgable about it, but it would definitely be a great idea to increase Ballista/HVY numbers, and grant them a new great Support tool.

Honestly I'm surprised there isn't a perk that lets you regen small amounts of ammo like you would health.

Would be a decent trade off. Sacrifice a perk slot for more ammo

There is Scavenger, but from what I recall, it is only a low % chance to refill your mag on kill and hardly reliable

I'm pretty sure that there's a synergy somewhere that makes your armor and ammo both get instantly refilled whenever you capture a control point. Forgot its name but it has Pincushion iirc.

I think a way to potentially do it that doesn't immediately render Heavies/Ballistae useless could be to make looting for craft materials have a small chance of giving you ammo. Not much, like 1-2 magazines' worth. But something so you can try searching scrap as a last resort.
