I know if opponent uses the sustained fire ability, the Maxim's AoE suppression can become nuts, like suppressing another squad half a screen apart, otherwise the larger radius is not really noticable.

Doesn't the ability give only about +15% more AoE suppression? I barely used it since I try to not build Maxims at all. And the AoE suppression range should not be affected as well

But then again nobody knows how supprrssion really works...

I've been using the maxim more recently, if you have it set up and ready it is really really good. That ability turns it into a suppressing machine with great damage to boot. By no means OP obviously, just a good solid option compared to the AP round mg42. It's also not as obvious when you are using it, so you can suppress a bunch of squads the opponent wasn't expecting.

The maxim with the ability will also continue to suppress everything and deal damage while it is suppressed itself. It will win a 1v1 versus any other mg easily with this ability, including against armor piercing mg-42.

Are you actually saying that the "maxim is trash" myth can also rest in peace?

That one is not a myth.

The description I read is not consistent to "trash". If you want to argue that maxim is trash you should respond to Tobis's post.

I will just wait for him to clarify and that is why there was question mark in the end of that sentence.

That's because you are reading description of sustained fire ability, not the gun and are unable to distinguish between the two.

He clearly puts emphasis on the ability through the thole post.

Let me explain something to you, you can not distinguish between maxim and the sustain fire ability because they come together.

Now pls stop interpreting what Tobis what has posted I am pretty sure he can express himself adequately (certainly better than you can) and he does not need katitof to translate for him.

And once more stop making post about what I do not or do not do, this thread is not about me but about maxim. If you want to respond to Tobis quote him and not me.

I have not made any comment about maxim. I have simply asked a question and you are obsessing with me instead of the maxim.
