The other way to solve this is simply moving all the lategame TDs and heavies to another time frame. After min 40 or so.

1v1s will hardly seem them, but when they do it will be epic.
4v4s will be healthier since their spam is the big issue (combining two or more players heavies is such a tough nut)

Added: If anyone wonders how. Simple. TRIPLICATE their buildtime.

MG34
Currently does the least amount of suppression and is not an effective crowd control unit. We’ve decided to increase the suppression so it can fulfill its role as a crowd control unit.
Damage reduced from 4 to 2
Suppression increase by 15%

This change was applied barely before Brits got released and that is the moment when it went into avg territory. Good suppression wise, too much to be desired dmg wise.

Anything before that it was REALLY good.

I really can't agree that 2 per shot made the HMG 'avg' there. It was so bad after that 4->2 patch it should have been a meme.

In any case these are ancient history notes for a version that ceased to be relevant years ago. Topic's about the MG34 today. I shouldn't have engaged with the mention of the early versions.

I am not getting pushed at all. The guy on my side lost every single engagement and then isntead of trying to learn to play blobbed 6 rifles into my Ostheer random teammate.

Almost like blobbing all your units into one blob is not enough for USF anymore. They now need to blob all units of all palyers on the team into one blob.

Then 20 minutes later they surrendered after complaining about Stuka.

You could submit this vid to the Trending page. Would be good for a laugh at least. xD

That job is to suppress, which it does.



The mg34 comes later because it wasn't supposed to be a core unit. It used to be a 1cp doctrinal unit. Having access to it promotes combined arms. Because the faction was designed around not having access to it. Kindly tell me how mg34s and sturms would not be absolutely cancer to play against from the word go.

Think.

It barely does that job, at all. Going from it to the other MGs and it becomes extremely clear the difference in suppression and lethality.

Don't lecture me. I was there when the Suppresskubel still existed, MG34 was Fort/Luft only as CP 1, am fully aware of the potential problems. The MG34 was laughable in that era mind you. I have not asked for it to be moved to T0. Its current position in the tech tree should actually make it better than the MG42 but I think that's unreasonable and ask for it to be brought to the same baseline. People saying that they're comparable really need to use both of them more often.

Let's not forget that the Vickers only gets the bonus in buildings (meaning either predictable positioning or MP investment in trenches by Tommies, more damage from indirect, and high vulnerability to getting 1-shot via building collapse), and the MG34 gets the ability everywhere.

And the MG34 would not also be put into buildings and vulnerable to the same things? Even if they weren't, Garrison damage is 50% of damage received. More often than not, a MG crew will be in yellow not green cover esp if someone's destroyed the green. That's 100% of indirect fire damage received.

I've already addressed the pre-load problems of the IAPs in an earlier post.

Vet 0 Vickers is still > Vet 0 MG34 for 1 mg vs 1 squad engagements.
