So... Do fire beetles not suck yet?

[MushrooMars]

I have yet to try them again (as I haven't player FaF in several months) but are they better yet? Can I just go shotgun on ACU's and drop a swarm of fire beetles on people's faces (just like the mercy)?

Or are they still in that little corner along with negligible cost efficiency and damage, and blowing themselves up by accident?

And if they have yet to be patched, may I suggest no friendly fire, OR EMP, OR personal stealth OR personal cloak? Not a combinations, just one of these.

And please don't start an apeshit war because my suggestions are moot, I don't want to leave again.

firebeetles are great like they are. i had 8 bricks and 10 loylists. a monkeylord came and i spammed additional firebeetles. they helped a lot to kick this thing faster.
sometimes i could stop a fully upgraded seraphim acu with them. rushing with tanks in his army and then try to hide within your own units to hit him.

if they would not hit each other. they would be imba.

This was more of a question than a brainstorming thread. I want to know what the opinions are on firebeetles.

Did you even read it? This thread, even if it was made first, would be the same. Spamming new threads about stuff does not help anyone and will not make things change faster.
