Interesting...I'd certainly at least like the Volley Fire change to happen. Makes BARing REs feel better (ain't no one got the munitions to give em' BARs which is then mostly for the purpose of spending more munitions on Volley Fire constantly...), avoids the former times of them being mobile unflankable HMGs that do no damage at the cost of munitions..
I wanted RE troops to be USFs main infantry for the start of the match. 5 man squads that could build defenses fast and hold the line until actual troops arrived in later tiers (Bulge Style).
I was hoping for that myself based off the early preview for USF with Pqumsieh there.
Didn't happen.
Certainly wouldn't have worked with the image of a "mobile" faction, I guess.
CP0 tanktraps, wire, fighting positions and infinite riflenades, nice veterancy bonuses, perfect bazooka squad, caches, 160 mp
What else do you want?
Actually damaging infantry, of course.
Their use as a Zooka platform also struck me as kinda messing with the weapon racks' proposed concept. They're supposed to make USF units feel versatile, but it's obvious the best choice for Zookas are REs by far.
