id rather see it recieve a decrease into a rate of fire or damage lowered to 80.
however the real root of the problem is the new cover seeking system that so many of us lauded
like so many things relic it was half baked. it's great for infantry combat, somewhat baring nades, but terrible for aoe weapons, particularly with current aoe profiles.
The only way to do that would be to use a swap_squad_action, that would replace your current squad with a new one that had a different formation. This would be abuse heaven as that squad would by fully reinforced and at 100% HP. About to lose your Obers? No prob, pop the formation button to shit out three buddies!
Sadly, one of those 'can't be done' things.
EDIT: And that action doesn't even exist in CoH2 anymore! Bwahaha, it's limited to vCoH. #rekt
well that's out the window. i assume what you mean is that squad formation settings are set in the squad file and can't be changed?
