Maxim comes along with very potent Zis gun

Someone from the balance team, please explain why USF needs a MG as potent as the 50 cal. Please elaborate why Riflemen, Rangers and Paratroopers get 50 cal as Support when Conscripts get a Maxim and the nerfed Infantry Sections get the Vickers.

Thank you.

The balance team publicly stated they like USF faction. As simple as that. Nobody votes them, they do whatever the fk they feel like. We get the patches free so we can't really complain either.

.50 cal is good because it has very good supression and set up / pack up time. You are welcome Blvckdream.

Literally 90% of answers completely off topic.

Asymmetrical balance is your answer then. One could continue to ask this kind of questions like why no sniper for USF?, why worst MG Maxim with worst inf Cons for SOV when they face stronger volks and MG34 which is about as good as MG42?, etc. .50 cal is very good but afaik it works best vs single squads and not blobs.
