Are they? I see only a few complaints here, and of them none seem overtly dramatic.
Shoutbox, other threads, MG42 complaints, fuel cost complaints, etc etc.
Especially the fuel cost complaints.

The MG42 had a suppression radius of 10 until the very last patch, now the maxim (suppression wise) will be the MG42 before the latest patch. So yes it will do AoE suppression now. The maxim technically always did AoE suppression, it just did extremely little now it will do AoE suppression like all the other machine guns in the game do.

Excellent, thanks for the info (so the maxim has suppression AoE of 10 then?). So now the Maxim will be able to suppress blobs finally, but not as well as the MG42. That's fair in my opinion.

The nearby multiplier is what gives machine guns AoE suppression, that and suppression radius.

It now has the same nearby suppression multiplier as the MG42.

Do you even know what it means?
Because from the way you write about it, you clearly have no idea.
Most of the MG's have a suppression radius of 13, which is the area in which they do suppression. So think of it like the area around the squad your MG is shooting at. Now the nearby multiplier is what actually makes that radius matter

I see Stuart and T70 play being game winning for the Allies now that mediums have been delayed. 80 fuel T34 is absurd. OKW medium is nice but maybe OP depending on tech costs.
Anyone else think that HMG42 from HQ is kinda broken?

It's just odd to me seeing a medium tank cost marginally more than a light vehicle, authenticity wise.

Thanks for the info Alex. Looks like the maxim will be in good shape now. Ostheer will need to counter with snipers or mortars instead of just vet2 rifle nades. OKW will need to counter them with either IR halftrack with sturmpio flanks and/or the leIG, or go for the AaHT or stuka.

It would be a problem if it was in t3, but it requires t4.

No it seems balanced, it's just weird. Like the IR half track not costing fuel even it clearly runs on fuel, not Nazi dark science. Or a Molotov Cocktail sharing the munitions cost of a smoke grenade, or Infiltration Grenades costing a third of the price of a normal grenade. Like its all balanced, just weird if you think of it like real life.
