i am at a loss here,
quite often in the hectic battle spanning the length of the entire map (not exactly wise i know) i notice that my units really lack the initiative to open fire on the enemy.
My tanks and strykers would just sit there watching the enemy infantry that is clearly within their machine gun reach... the same with my machine gunners... and will only fire when i give them explicit command to do so, why is that?
I've tried giving them the best vantage point and i know they can shoot the bastard because if i give them a manual order to do so they will fire on it and kill it, so am i missing something?
The same thing often happens with my units under fire, strykers... tanks... rifle squads... they would get peppered by hundreds of rounds with tracers but make absolutely no attempt to return fire... i don't get it.
