From the allies PoV, the only real hard part to spawn out of is the far right side where the majority of the MG's and snipers go. The rest of the other boats arnt as hard to go through.

It will help me remember the day change... maybe even encourage some HL2DM / HL2CTF people to show up and have a good few laughs with us.

Back on topic:

I counter my previous point, i think that the allies should have 1, if not 2 mgs. I mean come on. why does axis get 4 and allies get none. I have heard people say they will not come to our server because of this. Its hard to get the germans to capture the flags too (especially left flag aka 2nd). I want to shoot them in the head sometimes.

Agree with Dragon, if the ally MG is not to be preset at least decrease the number of German MG's to fair it out.

i stand by WDF to say ally mgs only pose a problem.....axis are efffective since they have a pill box to shoot down on the unprotected allies.....so mg fire is very efective.

allies have no cover and must shoot at allies who have pletnty of cover....this seems not a task for an mg but for snipers and garands....i mean ur not ganna pick up snipers and rifel men from that distance when the axis have plenty of cover.....allies need to CHARGE up to cover

Hopefully dragon will add some additional cover as well. Perhaps some blown up landing craft (on their side maybe?) or exploded debris... stuff to hide behind. Right now those... forget what they're called X things on the beach are lousy for cover as you can get shot through them basically.

i know this is a mute point, but aren't mgs also used for the axis to keep control of the flag? say they capture the number 2 flag (the lonely one with a tank next to it) once captured by allies a green dude hops on top of the tank and defends the flag.

Another spot is when going after the 3 man, nothing is more effective then the mg if you get your self on that tall mound between the pill box/sand bags and tank, you have a clear fire to sweep 95% of those players so your squad can get in there and capt the 3 man.

the last part where it really becomes nice to have an MG is the 4th flag (the one that at start of round is axis) because if you have 3 people attacking it, you can send the mg up by jumping on guy 2s back right next to the sand bags, have him tuck in there and hes now in a point where he can capt, and has full spray area incase an axis member wants to interfer while the 3rd guy is trying to crouch/jump onto guy 2s back and get up and assist in the capture.

Times mentioned in the above post are stated in WHUT time... which is not the time normal humans are accustomed. Whut time is relative. Today is defined as whenever Whut happens to get a bug up his ass and thinks he is gotten sorta of close to being in the mood. The actual real life timeframe for these occurences is unknown at this time. Sometimes it happens more than once in a day and during other periods it would be more like for hell to freeze over than anything actuallly getting done. Currently we are in a time frame where it would seem that there would be more of a chance of Dragon getting a girlfriend as far fetched as that might be than there would be of anything actually happening here.

Valid point Blood, you are right that those are ideal situations for the mg. Too many times though we find kids camping the Higgin boats with the mg :(. Oh well I guess you persuaded me! Mgs are a good think for allies too! I just want to see them use them on the flags more rather than sniping the axis.

Why dont we add mgs to the allies, i have made sure that you cannot camp the boats (either side) and you cant camp the spawn rooms. If the other team camps the spawn they are hurt with 30 damage every half second. Allies are hurt 2 damage every half second. I have tested the map so far (not done yet) and i forgot about the round start where you are stuck in the boats getting hurt. I may end up lowering the damage even though once you are allowed to move you are left with a good amount of health.  The side affect to this: you may end up with team stacking in order to get away from the damage (as we all know, there are a lot of blitzkriegers on the german side) and this might cause a problem with the allies. I will add more stuff to cover behind on the beach. All i have to do is make the bomb targets, put debris by the glitches and make more cover for allies. Still trying to find a tutorial on bomb targets.
