my bad not combined arms, i meant more in the terms of synchronizing together (historically pioneers wher also used for scouting). but i dont get what the big problem is, its far better then people just blobbing a-moving 5 squads.
Yeah, but you already mentioned the devs giving pios the extended sight to "encourage combined arms". Which is what *I* was talking about.
...Ofc you would need to support your maxim, go play ost and build only mg42s and tell me how it goes, every mg is going to need some kind of support
Sure, but it will be a cold day in hell when you can use a maxim to lock down a sector with nothing other than a CE standing next to it with its thumb up its ass, a la MG42.
but people like you, instead of providing solutions to the maxim, your just bashing ost and pioneers sight.
People like me? Tf is that supposed to mean? I'm like the banks, guy. I play both sides. The fact of the matter is that I come onto this forum to point out bullshit and speak my mind. I don't just "bash" OST. I "bash" every faction, so long as there's some BS.
EDIT: You want my honest opinion on the maxim? Well it doesn't really matter to most people because I play 4v4 at like the middle 2000 ranks. But I think it's worthwhile against medium sized blobs, then falls off against bigger or LMG blobs. Only useful when you've got prior warning of the blob so you can pop Suppressive Fire. And against opponents in 1v1, it's lackluster as hell compared to what the MG42 can do unsupported. So, make it cheaper. It's worth less than the MG42.
