Bozilas Posted April 19, 2018 Share Posted April 19, 2018 Quick question, like to hear you guys thoughts.... Let's say the enemy is on the bottom floor of a two story house, and my MG crew can only direct fire into the top floor (above enemy) --- will that enemy feel any suppression effects at all? or just mitigated... -Boz 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glubokii Boy Posted April 19, 2018 Share Posted April 19, 2018 Do a quick test in hotseat-mode... Select the unit inside the building ones/prior to the area fire on the building Begins... Check the suppression-meter on the UI... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Canadian Cat Posted April 19, 2018 Share Posted April 19, 2018 What @RepsolCBR said. I do recall someone doing tests like that but I cannot find the link. My recollection was that it did have an effect on troops on nearby floors. I would take the shot 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bulletpoint Posted April 19, 2018 Share Posted April 19, 2018 Yep, there's a suppressive effect, but it's a bit less than if you're able to target the actual floor. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyvm. This is what I expected from the engine, and hoped for. I have a MP game going of all regulars verses elites, infantry only.... so you see why I am enquiring. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, if you can't target the actual building, you can sometimes target just in front of it. If you fire from a good distance, the bullets will hit the building anyway. If you're too close, the bullets hit the ground. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've found that this also works hedgerows, hedges, and the like. It usually takes more time to achieve a given level of effect, but it will eventually work.
