Template:GunboxThe M2 Browning Machine Gun is a heavy machine gun that appears in Counter-Strike, Counter-Strike: Condition Zero, and Counter-Strike: Condition Zero Deleted Scenes. With the exception of Deleted Scenes, it can only be seen on custom maps and in some beta maps.

Counter-Strike and Condition Zero

While it does not appear in any official map, it can be placed by mappers on unofficial maps. Its accuracy, range, firing mode and speed depends on the coding made by the mapper who placed it.

In theCounter-Strike Beta, the map Desert contained a M2 Browning at the Terrorist Spawn Zone.

Appearances in Deleted Scenes

It often appears in Deleted Scenes. It is mostly used by the AI. If the AI enemy controlling it is killed, the machine gun will be destroyed.

The player has also some occasions to use it:

  • During Lost Cause, it is used very briefly to kill just a few enemies.
  • During Secret War, it is used to eliminate the Mi-24 Hind helicopter chasing the player and the rest of the surviving Russian Spetsnaz members, at the end of the mission.
  • During Building Recon, it is used to eliminate a large group of hostiles with help from the British SAS.

In-game

  • When used by enemies, it has a slow rate of fire but inflicts a large amount of damage.
  • When used by the player, it has a very fast firing speed and still inflicts heavy damage. In fact, it deals so much damage that it can gib enemy players.
  • The M2 has infinite ammo, so the ammo never runs out.
  • Most M2 Brownings will not feature a shield.
  • In Rise Hard, there are two M2s need to be detonated by RC Bombs, so it cannot be used.
  • This weapon will not overheat.
  • If the Technical is not destroyed, the M2 mounted on it can be used.
  • In some custom maps, the M2 may have different fire sounds.
  • It possible to kill youself with the M2. However, in online custom maps, killing yourself will lead to a score penalty.

Trivia

  • In Counter-Strike Online, this weapon can be in ported and mounted mode since the ZM4: Darkness patch.
  • If a player is wielding a Sniper rifle and uses the zoom-in function while operating the M2, the zoom will be remain on which can be used against enemies from long range.
