Why is it so hard to buff this unit to be a viable suppression platform? Its a terrible unit, its 6 man squad often times makes the unit get stuck trying to run away, the gun gets stuck on retreat while other factions guns teleport to next man, it has a small firing arc, can only suppress/pin one squad at a time, and it costs relatively the same MP as other mgs.
So why must this unit continue to be useless/ called an op unit when in reality its simply not worth building or even stealing. Now more than ever soviets and allies in general need more anti blob options rather than just counter blobing so why not buff the maxim.
While it may sound like crazy why not reduce the squad size of the maxim and for once make it not get stuck on retreat, keep its fire arc small and narrow as usual but increase pack up time to compensate for suppression of multiple units inside the arc.
seriously all factions deserve an early antiblob option
