Hey,
I've played a large amount of 2v2's lately with Otto & Empire as allies and we find that the MG's of the allied forces (specially UKF Vickers and 50. Cal USF) isn't cutting it. Is there nothing like AOE suppression? What's the point of having an MG (even with spotters) that does not pin squads even if the MG starts firing when the blobs of doom enter the cone of fire?
Don't get me wrong, this aint no 'NERF OKW BUF ALLIES' topic, I just want to see how you guys feel about this. Should the Vickers and 50. Cal suppress faster to discourage blob-play?
My feeling is that disvantages of Vickers are bigger than its advantages.....in my opinion 90% of players would choose a HMG that suppresses any and all squads entering in his cone of fire as MG42 does.
Yeah those bonuses when garrisoned are great, but again, I think 90% of players would give those bonuses if they receive more suppresion to squads in its cone of fire.
When do you buy a HMG???? most of the time, when you want to deny some map area to the enemy or when you want to counter blobs.....in this case, properties of MG42 are the best ones.
just my noob opinion.
