I just want to see crew-served weapons in game. They have a huge ponential here.
So maybe a compromise? HMGs are build by engineer squad but MG squad can unlock option to carry one into the battle. It won’t have a sandbag cover in fron of it as a downside or something and you would sacryfice one of the main weapons.
that is one place where gameplay takes over realism
imagine- you order to build a MG and the bot carrying an important part get stuck
or better yet, gets sniped and gives the sniper a free killstreak, with all the other bots going to pickup the piece
and in general building stuff would be a pain, a you would have to wait for the bots to come(the carrier would probably also be even slower)
I must agree. Still, I hope that one day crew-served weapons will be a thing. So far movable AT guns are (were?) coming so I would say that first step was made.
