Dushkas Overperforming

As for the current meta Lend-Lease is a viable option for soviets which provides several call-ins, among them the dushka can be found.

Now the problem is with this MG is the amount of suppression and damage it can deal. 1 or 2 burst are enough to stop infantry and thanks to its magnificent 6 men crew and quick set-up time it can easly fend off assaults and flanks alike for a very good price. This is a huuuuuuge problem for OKW to deal with as these beasts deny every infantry movement as the faction lacks solid counters.

Either keep the damage output, or lower the suppression.

It's damage is the same as MG-42 (somewhat better) suppresion is basically the same as a maxim.

Most expensive mg in the game for 300mp...

Maybe for once provide a valid arguement before posting. I'm sure that you have better knowledge of game than me that allows you to troll.

Untill that, pls stay off this thread.

@Burts, it might be the same, but it does not in the game. It feels far better than the maxim's.

Defense Doctrine is shit, but Lend-Lease is viable.

2 non meta doctrines, one is terrible.

Most expensive HMG in the game.

It might be a shocker, but OKW is not supposed to YOLO frontally all allied HMGs, despite the fact that they can do it against 3 out of 4 of them.

Happy now?

Ok, now we have only 1 decent doctrine with expensive MG, and its aviable on 2 CP. And its still 12,7 mm, so dshk should be powerfull.(Pretty easylly counteret by ostheer rifle grenades btw)

It sets up too fast so that one can counter a flank. Better timing or unison with flank should work.

Are we forgetting the fact that if you do manage to flank its basically dead because of the same recrew bug that the maxim has and also that its pack up time is slow as hell? There's nothing wrong with the dshk, in fact the maxim is the one that needs a fix

Well, Lend-Lease is common doctrine for soviets, faced it like 3-5 times this week (out of my 10 axis games). It allows them to skip tiers and spam medium tanks with a very good HMG.

240-260-300...doesnt make a difference, but the low reinforcement cost makes up for it.

It might be a shocker, but when you try to YOLO flank the HMG and it just repositions in a split second then insta suppresses your guys before even they can throw a grenade.

Lend lease is non meta? Either you are the greatest troll of coh2 or you didnt play the game since 2 month.

Dhsk should have its reinforcement cost increased and inline with other HMGs other than is in rather good place...

You mean the normal OKW strat doesn't work on this obscure, late-arriving and expensive HMG? hmmmmmm how...odd

I'm not seeing where the DShK's stats are overperforming for its cost.

i know realism isn't really a thing in COH2, but the DSHK and M2 HB are .50 cal (or 12.7mm for you euro types) MGs... they SHOULD be doing excellent damage with good suppression and penetration.

and OP, no offense, but they definitely don't overperform. you're the first person i've seen complain about them. when I play lend lease it's more frustrating that they do so little damage compared to their real world equivalent.

Willy Pete: @Rosbone Ahh I missed that memo. I still think its a bad decision though. Adds frustration for players and isnt gonna make them that much money
27 Mar 2025, 15:46 PM
Rosbone: It is also good they left it free until after the free to play weekend. Points for that.
27 Mar 2025, 09:34 AM
Rosbone: But I agree, the cost to get a full decent Coh game pushing $115 US is not the best idea. Especially when it needs so much more work for casuals.
27 Mar 2025, 09:32 AM
Rosbone: To be fair, it was a thank you to early fans right? They said it was not free for long and it would become a pay DLC at some point.
27 Mar 2025, 09:30 AM
Willy Pete: Re-releasing free DLC so they can charge new players money for it. Brilliant marketing strategy :clap:

Rosbone: @Nickbn No, I am just saying people should not be using any Relic owned forum since they have proven they ban anyone who says true things about Coh3.
