MG's in buildings

Sadly if this was a Maxim it'd of been totally fine. MG/buildings just need a rework.

Put two raketen or mgs in the same house and watch them be unable to fire a single shot

Except it wouldn't, because after changes it takes exactly the same time for it to setup and change windows as it takes for MG42.

Was one of the stealth changes.

All team weapons which can be garrisoned within a building now share the same setup/re-position time of 4 seconds. This means a MG42 will take 4 seconds to switch windows and begin firing, as opposed to their old functionality which relied on their reload time. This creates more consistent behavior between team weapons and prevents some weapons from having delays as high as 6 or 7 seconds.

Selecting the MG inside the building seems to mitigate this somewhat (although it may be my imagination.)

This problem appeared when they changed the building profiles, the unit keeps re-positioning for like 10 seconds when it tries to find a decent spot to fire from, try setting up a mg to the brown wooden house on langreskaya (next to the munitions point ) and you see the MG get totally insane, firing 3 bullets..and repositioning and it will keep doing that, if the target stays in max range, and garrisoning 2 mgs you will see it happen even more. (Maybe its just that brown wooden building that makes mg's get possessed since its on alot of maps, and i've seen it happen alot in that building type)

OCT 14 patch

Ambient Buildings
Our goal is to improve the gameplay value of buildings and reduce the potential frustrations associated with their use. The first step towards achieving this goal is to increase the transparency of a building’s structural integrity. By doing so, players are better equipped to analyze the battle field and its potential assets. Future improvements will focus on gameplay and interaction. This might include improving the functionality of a weapon team within a garrison or providing the player with a better means of identifying each structure type.

I have a horrible feeling it is unfinished business.

What Relic was actually going for was an accurate representation of the superiority of Soviet architecture. As you can see, Relic correctly displays how the Soviets designed their buildings to defy gravity once the structural integrity is destroyed. This was very crucial for their survival in the war.
