? Maxims were spammed because they would dumpster OKW where cons didn't. If we need cons to dumpster OKW as well I don't think you're in for a good reply.

Pre-nerf Dhsk had something like 70 DPS close so no it should no it should not be reverted. A slight buff might be OK but its DPS was simply too high.
The maxim I would test having its vet 1 ability scale with veterancy gaining lower reload with each vet level.
Maybe it's 'cause the Axis players aren't a bunch of forum crybabies, and they keep their cool and fight the uphill battle, unlike some of their "allied" counterparts.

And incendiary rounds HMG42 got 80+ dps.
Plus, DSHK had literally all of its stats nerfed hard, not just DPS, making it most expensive and most cost inefficient HMG in game.
However, before buffing maxim, I'd first beat some sense into relic and made conscripts actually scale, without that it will ALWAYS be penals or maxim spam into elite infantry instead of cons being supported by a pair of maxims or penals.

Maxim definitely needs a price decrease. Personally I use it in pairs with Cons to try add another build to my 1v1 Sov lineup. Versus OST it works wonders as long they dont have Storms but versus OKW is plain suicide as they can just overwhelm you with pure numbers if the Maxims are caught in the open.

Lower mp cost will simply encourage spam and get it nerfed further. We need to go in the other direction. Embrace the strength of the 6 man crew and stop trying to balance it against mgs that only have 4 men for the same cost. Make it 300mp and suppress. Can't spam it but it does its fucking job for once

Change the arc back to what it originally wise, and lower the cost 10mp. It’s still so ridiculous on so many maps, especially since they are so damned hard to kill, unlike the MG42 which almost always dies on retreat if they catch a Moloto or have 2 models or fewer left..
I wouldn’t say anything else needs changing, the problem is OKW has problems getting around multiple maxims to toss a nade whereas Ostheer can rifle nade while suppressed. Can really not see why anyone thinks they need to be cheaper unless slightly nerfed, Soviet has no problem ever with manpower. Alternatively, you could raise the cost of the Zis so light vehicles are more of a problem for them.
