I haven't had a chance to use it much myself, but I seem to be getting more piloting ribbons and my gunners have most said they think it's more fun to use now. Long or short range.
Now that they've fiddled with it it should be even better. But I'll sort of miss the 6 round burst

Just saw these changes, this may change my mind back to it being useful! Like seeing the CoF reduction, may make it more viable. Semi-auto is fine, as IMO it was rough to use as automatic unless it was against infantry right up against you. Inner Blast Damage increase I guess is good? Seems high? Not sure I know exactly what this damage is, as I thought the direct hit damage was only 450ish? Does this mean direct hit was increased as well?
