Wouldn't your team be better off shooting in volleys, but have everyone spread out 10 feet apart? You still can concentrate all your fire into one area (the enemies condensed line), but now you're no longer one big target?
Is there a valuable reason to cluster fuck your team into one giant ball (aka one giant target) rather than having 20 small targets?
M&B is way better than M&M, they had a revolutionary mod in half-life for probably 10 years, I don't find anything special or fun about shooting terrible firearms.

The weapons they used back then were not very accurate, so they fired volleys in groups to make up for inaccuracy, slow rate of fire, and limited range, and to create a maximum effect. The rifles in this mod I think are fairly accurate, so yes it would probably be better. But some people like to play line battles just because thats how it was back then, and the thrill of surviving a volley. Its personnel preference. But as I said, in the public servers you won't find a line battle. In modern times the use of volley fire is limited, since automatic weapons can devastate massed infantry.

Plus being close together makes it loads easier for the regimental leaders to co-ordinate the squad's movements and to issue orders. Hard to march out, stop and form 2 lines when you're miles apart.

We do it mostly for roleplay, of course cannons destroy lines but if you do it right you can kick ass and have fun.
