Title: mg gun nests, another mention 1.501
Post by: Joshua9 on October 24, 2011, 06:34:26 AM

I initiated some talk about the russian mg nests before and was pretty much told they were fine.  I'm still of the opinion that they aren't, given their current range.

Take Semios,  I don't think its reasonable that given the extended range of the russian nests, that they are immune to having their fuel decapped.  I think its worse in the field, but given the fact that it prevents a standard tactic, just by the virtue of existing seems like it should be persuasive.

Or maybe somebody can make their point about why exactly that extra range is neccesary to help hold points for a faction that is INCREDIBLY mobile, and packs a shit load of firepower. 

I know other things are already being addressed but I think this should be considered also.

I guess cause they cost more? :-\. Thats my best guess :P. Maybe its to get the ppl who love MGs to be quiet for now ;D

If the Brits Mg nest or the US Mg nest do have lower range than soviet ones then its not ok. The fuel points near your base on semois should be out of range.

I'm pretty sure the Soviet MG is an exact copy of the Brit Vickers. Thanks for bringing this up, we'll nerf it.

incredibly mobile sounds like hyperbole to me

the soviets are more mobile than -lets say- brits. They are the second fastest faction in game.
