It could be worse. At least the MG42 does not have brittle bone disease like the .50 cal and the DHSK machine guns. For those who do not know, these 2 weapons have low health/armor stats for some reason so they take lots of damage from explosive weapons and will get completely wrecked if not repaired in between every engagement.

According to Relic in one of the first post WFA streams the reason why the .50 cal is more fragile is that it's better damage and suppression is balanced by it's fragility.
Honestly I'm just more concerned with how easy it is to kill the crew on the .50 cal/MG42 while standing directly in it's field of fire.

That would be an excuse if it costed 240mp.
Hint: it doesn't.

The biggest suitability buff they can get is spread formations and OPsoldaten nerf. That applies to all weapon teams, sticking their weewees into each other is the main cause of their explosions originated deaths.

@austerlitz Im not even gonna argue with you because you damn near break into tears every time someone talks about ostheer.

It's not just explosives or Obers, rifles can easily just walk up to an MG42 squad and kill it with out any other thinking. What's the point of machines guns if they are literally unable to do their job?
I can easily walk up to a .50 cal and kill the crew with out barely any effort, and it has nothing to do with bunching, they crew is just fragile as shit and only has 4 men.

Unless in both cases you have used OPsoldaten then I call

If u don't want me to reply don't post insulting shit like ost is fine only has 'mechanical problems'.Thats a usf fanboy crying to keep his autowin candy right there.

Well , Ost suffers from the same things everyone suffers from, one way or the other. Name any problem with ost and I can come up with a similar issue in another faction or matchup. You know what that means? ITS A GLOBAL MECHANICAL ISSUE THAT THE MG TEAMS BUNCH UP and get wiped by nades,, AND THHR GUNNER GET SNIPED FROM THE FRONT by BLOBS that do TOO MUCH DPS to fragile weapon teams... ITS NOT JUST AN OST ISSUE. IF YOU FIX THIS, OST WILL BE FINE, and BALACE WILL IMPROVE ACROSS THE BOARD.
considrig ostheer is my second favorite faction personally, and ostheer is far from being an easy win for me when I'm USF,I just want to enjoy the game no matter what faction I queue. Quit accusing me of being a fanboy when you have a panther as your profile pic, a name that sounds German, and constantly complain about how bad the Ostheer is. With every. Single. Post. You. Make. me? I just play usf more because I like them and I never got to play a game like coh with the Americans. I never blob unless I've given up, and I have yet to win a top level game where I just blabbed as usf.
Quit exaggerating and see from both sides.

You really do not want to go down this route.

If anyone doesn't want to go down that route its you, axis team game at hero.

Are you physically incapable of making a post that doesn't accuse the person you are arguing with of bias? Especially since you made to attempt to actually refute what he's saying.
Posts: 4951 | Subs: 1
He is biased. Like I said, he clearly likes axis and axis only. Posts about nothing but axis needing buffs and allies needing nerfs. It's like he's a robot designed to complain, and then When I discuss with him, HE CALLS ME. A usf fanboy, I played one game, yada yada.i I explain why I'm not, and he is, and you tell me not to go down that route. What are you saying?

No need to nerf OKW,stuka needs a buff.

You didn't discuss anything, you just said "Well I find it to be just fine" and went from there. Not to mention the fact he has been bitching about the MG42 under preforming not Allies over preforming.
Even if he is "biased" your still supposed to take the high road and continue to argue in good faith, not immediately debase yourself to his level and start shit posting. The best way to build a coherent argument for something is always:
-Good grammar and spelling
-Objective evidence with personal commentary
-Keeping yourself above your opponent, avoid sounding angry
-Consistency in your narrative.
