First of all, it’s dev’s fault of making this squad so EXTREME hard to progress, thus unlock all 5 seats. (It’s a giant joke of getting a tank, but unable to fully sit the seats. Even a random passing infantry squad can do this.)
Secondly, due to unique MG role of this tank. But also extreme useless of japan’s MG.
Game actually makes MG’s seat higher priority than commander, and also loader!

This is how you spawn with.

As long as you switch to gunner, game just move the commander to the gunner’s seat!
And what’s more funny: game’s AI cant fire hull MG!
When I paid to skip to buy the 4th soldier,
the game still refuse to fill the IMPORTANT loader’s seat.
And still moving the 4th soldier into the useless hull MG’s seat.

Come on! Loader is much more important than the hull MG!
And why no one even mentioned game’s stupid seat priority stuff? Is Japan faction such neglected and with few players maxed out?
