Wehrmacht Bunkers have too much sight. Its sight goes beyond its arc of fire, which allows it to spot for itself, and other units such as AT guns.

Example of sight for Wehrmacht MG bunker, with USF MG emplacement for comparison:

Yep, that is definitely way too much for bunker in comparison to FP.

"bat keteetuff! bankur coasts moar!"

And doesn't suffer damage from small arms.

Both should have sight equal to their range in my opinion.

Easily countered and too fragile to be used as spotter for other units. I think it's fine.

Can fighting position heal troops around?
Can fighting position reinforce troops?

We're talking about MGs, they should have the same sight range, there isn't single balance reason why it should be otherwise.

I swear it was not like that before some point. OStheer bunker had less vision range similiar to fighting position shown abouve whereas OKW bunker had that great one vision.

I remeber it 100%

It was ninja changed.

Damn, I seem to be almost the only person to vote it should have the same sight as its range.

Only Rear Echelons can use Rifle grenades, and the grenades don't do much damage.

The Wehrmacht bunker is much more resistant to bullets.

And I'm pretty sure both machine guns have the exact same stats, except the MG42 has slightly more penetration.

bunker MG42 stats

fighting position .50 cal stats

I'm sure ima see "OH recon plane is OP" soon..

Don't see why people are comparing it to the US bunker. I mean different factions entirely. Also isn't wehr defensive, US aggressive..... explains why one is more sturdy then the other.

I'm gonna ask: wasn't there a patch on which they removed the extra sight from bunkers ?

If this was the other way around, you'd be pulling the Asymmetrical Balance card.
