If i am not mistaken new maxim got damage nerf per burst balance team says its ok because burst duration is doubled so DPS is the same
It is not the same
Before Maxim dealt some ammount of damage for short burst NOW same damage is dealt for double time.
DPS - Damage Per Second for those who doesnt know it.

You have to measure you dps based on a full reload cycle from the moment he initially starts firing to when he's reloaded and starts firing again.

Yeah, 'DPS' calculations and the whole notion of 'DPS' in this game is hilariously misused and misunderstood.

In theory, the DPS is the same.
In practice, every time you whack a model the Maxim has to aim again. Since Maxim uses soviet technology aiming systems, it takes up to 0.125 - 1 seconds to acquire a new target, thus depriving you of DPS.
The maxim also takes an additional second to start firing at the squad when you see it (or when you change targets to a new squad). Thus you can spend up to 2 seconds when a squad enters your field of view, without dealing any damage or suppression.
We've already narrowed down the bane of all Maxim issues (DPS/Suppression) to the uncharacteristically long and unreliable aim time. Now it's up to Relic to let us patch it.
Thanks for the heads up though!

Yeah/ You definatly know what dps mean
Seems like for you it would be OK if you lovly pz4 would deal same 160 damage for 2 shoots or 160 damage for 1 shot that that now take same amount of time for 2 (Means double reload time)

I don't think maxim DPS values can be identical to each other. When I drew the DPS graph before deciding on the damage value, the two DPS graphs looked similar, but not identical.

unless the game tools is not updated i got the same results.
DPS according to cruzz (using slightly different method as far as I know)
