It's a little more than just the mortar that's an issue. I consistently run out of gas around t3. I can have 3 vps and both fuels, but rifles blobs with tank support just rek everything in their path.

Lol, give me a defensive position with the equal amount of units as your USF blob and tanks, I'll counter it no problem with OST. The moment you walk into my layered MGs or even begin to slow down, feel the rain of pwerfer. Your tanks versus my mines, paks, and Stug.

You can't expect to hold 3 victory points with your units all spread out to win against a force that puts it all into one location. THAT would be imbalanced.

Redesigning the Maxim? The only person who complains about it is yourself. The Maxim was doing its job correctly. Yes, it had a limited field of view, but it made up for that with easy suppression.

While the MG42 holds a better arc, it can't cover them all since it is a single machine gun. Especially when there is three squads coming from different directions. This is where the Maxim can easily suppress units in its arc since it is focusing all of its firepower in a limited field of view.

The Maxim has something which the Axis doesn't have, sprint. To you it may seem useless, but it will help bring presence on the battlefield. As for your mention of not being a defensive tool, I must disagree. You put the Maxim in a building and it has an arc equal to the MG42.

Now you also suggest a new MG for them to use. Where the hell are you going to get that? The Maxim and the DsHK are the only two HMGs they got.

Without including you in the Soviet playerbase, no one has complained about the need for bunkers. If they did, it was probably at the beginning of CoH2 release and they easily adjusted to the difference between factions. The only who complained about the subject is once again, you.

I'm just quoting you because you said something hilarious to me.

"While the MG42 holds a better arc, it can't cover them all since it is a single machine gun. Especially when there is three squads coming from different directions. This is where the Maxim can easily suppress units in its arc since it is focusing all of its firepower in a limited field of view."

So when a player faces an mg he has to have 3 squads from different positions. Yet, when you go to the maxim you assume all 3 squads are in the area? Is this an implication that Axis players don't micro? The mg42 usually suppresses in one burst. Then, you can click on the other squad and it'll suppress that one. The maxim has to spin in a circle to do that lol.

Maxims just got a triple buff:

-Deathloop fixed
-Buildtime nerf negated by spamming out of building
-33% nade range while supressed

No the maxim doesnt need a buff.

No deathloop was not fixed. it only prevents noobs who don't click on the squad from killing the gunner... over and over again. If you just right click the squad with your infantry, it will target the gunner. If a flame or rifle nade hits the whole squad, they're all low on health and will die to a flanking/chasing squad.

you cannot really spam it out of the building because of mp increase. you can probably get 2 squads at most at the beginning of the game if you build nothing else.

as others have stated, the grenade affects all mgs and i prefer mgs like mg42 that have high suppression and a wide arc.

How is current usf even justified??Thats what i want to know?What do they lack?Nothing...
I asked this before..none of the allied people answered because they know there is no answer.They will just sidestep with 'its fine,l2p'..cant answer point by point how usf can have everything.

'Best core infantry...great elite infantry,ultimate vet bonuses

3 indirect fire weapon -mortar,pack howitzer plus the M8 on wheels.Best SPG in calliope by FAR.

HMG.AT constantly buffed.

Only faction still capable of blobbing with dual AT weapons which pisses on light and medium armour.Even AT gun constantly buffed.

Superb light vehicles.Stuart and AA are both excellent.Axis have only 1 good light vehicle in luchs between 2 factions in comparison.

Good medium armour,and if e8 chosen probably the best.
Great grenades.

Can dual wield,making infantry even more OP.
Forward reinforcement.Easiest repair.

Great tank destroyer in jackson.
Even Heavy tank.

Faction is so strong in every department it has no weaknesses,good usf player curbstomp both axis factions now.Early only volks blobs bothered them,but that was alreday in decline after calliope..and now gone altogether'.

Talk about blatant fanboism right here.

Best core infantry because that was their faction design.

mortar is new, howitzer is t2, 330 mp and weaker than any mortars and requires constant micro and awareness of cooldown to be useful, m8 got buffed because it wasn't useful and was 1 shotted by TDs. Calliope is doctrinal, cost the most, and was nerfed.

HMG was buffed to make T1 viable with some light armor counter. for the MOST expensive HMG in the game, it performed worse than T0 mg42 that cost 20 mp less.

ATG vet ability was nerfed and penetration was buffed so it could actually hit a tank and not bounce. Why would you buy a dedicated AT weapon when it couldn't even penetrate? Do you know it has 1.25 size when pak40 and ZiS are size of 1? It makes it a lot easier to hit with only a 4 man squad but you don't care about that.

Stuart and AA are in different tiers. 222 was buffed, flamer sdfkz was buffed. why don't you compare m20 versus 222? 222 hard counters 222 and costs MORE 340mp 20 fu versus 205mp 15 fu.

good medium armor? that's why everyone considers their tanks paper tanks? first you talk about calliope and now ez8? they're different commanders buddy and you can't have both.

their design was infantry focused so what's wrong with that? want to remove their weapons and make their base damage even stronger? lol

forward reinforcement points... which EVERY faction has. forward retreat points? Only WFA and UKF has those.

Great tank destroyers: stug? su76? su85? jagdpanther iv? firefly? talk about tunnel vision narrowmindedness

Faction is strong with infantry and their vehicles require a lot of babysitting. They get no doctrinal flamer and no general mines/demo. Thanks for stating all their doctrinal units that make that department stronger. you're sad against calliope probably because you lost your volks blob to them more than once. QQ more please.

Fully upgraded the healing forward retreat point is 600 mp and 55 fuel.

USF fully upgraded forward retreat point 240mp 120 fu major + 250mp 10 fu ambu = 490 MP and 130 FU
