MG42, dont pin nothing (again?), this unit alone is too poor, too slow, good range ok.

MaxPin! Atack Move and GG.

Is that or just a half of bad games?

I see, a MaxPin! i stolen, but a mg42, let to the map!

If he points out roughly what time the issue is, I am quite happy to skip through to that point. Sometimes people cannot be bothered / do not know how to record and put on youtube.

Katitof you lost for me, you are the nb... lol!

Mechanics?

The MaxPin! have a front TINNER protector (only in the guy with the MG), but that protection make magic for all the 6 guys!

Soo? Go play battlefield! I want more realism in this game.

Dont need a replay to see the problem, go play a single match, confront a MG42 vs MaxPin! to see the Huge difference. Put a MG42 in cover, the MaxPin! dont need that. The 30cm plate wins.

Maxim is an annoying shit of fuck in decent hand, but not quite hard to counter.

MG42 doesn't really worth getting because if it gets into Soviet hand, you are fucked.

Thats quite accurate sum up.

If MG42 is that bad, why its biggest drawback is the possibility of ending up with soviets?
I don't see decrewed maxims being stolen right away. I haven't seen decrewed MG42 not being steal attempted.

More realism would only make the game stupidly unbalanced. Want to see ISU's one shotting tanks? I thought not :)

I've never had an issue with MG42 pin, hence why I asked for the replay. The fact you wont provide me one tells me you either need to L2P or your a fanboy. Feel free to prove me wrong with the replay.

A bit more realism will be good.

Replay as gone, i play another match's.

MaxPin always is perfect, when is in our hand. The plate protector is fantastic.

Pro tip : mgs and maxims suppress quicker if other units are shooting the unit to be supressed
Sorry on my phone.

Edit: *pin*

Fully agree with OP.

The Maxim suppresses with one burst.

The MG42 suppresses with two/ three bursts.

Conscripts can run through the 42s arc at max range.

Grenadiers can´t run through the Maxims arc at max range.

With the latest changes to Grenadier and Panzergrenadier armor the suppression is so much more needed on the MG42 now.

Are you seriously trying to tell us that the little "plate protector" does magic and therefore makes the crew so survivable and the mg too strong?

what the fuck?

Mg has higher range than maxim, so obviously the mg suppresses less at max range than the maxim.

are you guys seriously fucking kidding me ?

AT this patch sometimes the Maxim made me laugh because after 1 burst it doesn't pinned shit.

MG42 in another hand is way even more crazy than the last patch: you don't need any bulletin, it will pinned for sure.

I mean, my Maxim got 4% rate of fire and sometimes enemy still run away

I think MG's can be more powerful, I don't have any problem with throwing molotovs into an MG. It shouldn't be that easy..
