It sucks the Maxim has to remain shit but if it was any better people would just spam it again
Why? All the other MGs are better and cost the same or less except .50 cal? No one spams those
Maxim spam glory days were before penal and conscript buffs, that has way more to do with it than the Maxim itself. The Soviets had nothing else, nerfing the Maxim into the ground is what prompted those buffs
And no one is saying to bring old Maxim back. Idk how ANY buff to the current garbage is somehow going to bring back the old style. Current Maxim doesn't even remotely resemble the old one. Near-instant setup was a crucial feature of the Maxim spam, current Maxim sets up in same time as Vickers + MG34/42 (and that should stay that way)
Actually I would test increasing the fuel cost and time of T2 so that maxim is delayed and thus it can not be spammed...
Yeah I'd be good with that. They only just recently reduced it's fuel cost anyway right?
