working at the gas stationprev. >>484921264>WHAT IS HELLDIVERS 2?HELLDIVERS 2 is a 2024 co-op, squad-based, PvE 3rd person shooter that sees players battling to win an interstellar struggle to rid the galaxy of the rising alien threats. You are a Helldiver, a member of Super Earth's most elite fighting force. You and your squad choose to wage war on a number of contested planets, completing various objective-based missions within a procedurally generated area of operations. Each successful mission contributes to the complete liberation of that world, and ultimately, total strategic victory in the game's ever-evolving galactic campaign that doesn't really work, much like defending against this thread's subject.HELLDIVERS 2 is available on Steam and PS5:https://store.steampowered.com/app/553850/HELLDIVERS_2/https://www.playstation.com/en-us/games/helldivers-2/>WHAT ABOUT THE FIRST HELLDIVERS GAME?Released in 2015, the original HELLDIVERS is the origin of the setting and basic gameplay formula of HELLDIVERS 2. The most major difference being that HELLDIVERS is a top-down, twin-stick shooter, neither of which are two words. You can expect similar gameplay between it and its sequel here in /hdg/.HELLDIVERS is available on Steam, PS3, PS4, PS5, and PS Vita:https://store.steampowered.com/app/394510/HELLDIVERS_Dive_Harder_Edition/https://www.playstation.com/en-us/games/helldivers/>WIKIhttps://helldivers.wiki.gg/wiki/Helldivers_Wiki>GENERAL GUIDEhttps://helldiverstrainingmanual.com/>CURRENT WAR STATUShttps://helldiverscompanion.com/https://helldivers.io/>EQUIPMENT REFERENCEhttps://divers.gg/>FORBIDDEN KNOWLEDGEhttps://invadersfromplanet.space/helldivers-2/>NEWSJuly 4th patch https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/553850/view/4246413199434585562?lCURRENT WARBONDhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jbb5ngK36x4

Fucking retard kick me when I was just finishing the radar. Teamwork my ass three people was with you and then you bitch about people leaving you in game. I save your ass when you keep spawning shit at the detector tower.
whoopsie
How did you like Joel's meal? We lost Aesir pass and vega bay but we kept Meissa.
What if we just capture Aesir Pass back once it goes down with the defense?
>>485011996Good luck with the users divided on vega and pointless bugs.
30k being unable to defend two planets is insane
>>485012070>and pointless bugsPointless trying to win a rigged game
>>485011996Doesn't matter. Just like what happened to the SEAF recruitment/training camps on Aesir Pass/Fori Prime a month or two ago. This is a situation of listen to the alert or get fucked.

>>485013842Nah I'd wife
Kind of funny to watch the acceleration of the required rate for liberation.
If Steiner holds Aesir Pass, X-45 will be alright.
>>485014190If the other guy is closer to the finish line you need to go faster to win
>>485010003What about just The Klan?
It true that HD1 had a free war table, like where player input mattered and enemy factions would get wiped out?>>485013629It's pretty easy to see why. It's like when your footballs team loses. Even the if they've been losing for 10 years you'll still get mad at that
>>485014416Meant for >>485013752
>>485014416HD1's galactic war was entirely automated and stratagem releases weren't tied to events
>>485013752the problem is they keep getting more blatant, incompetent, wishy-washy and flip-floppy about it in the most retarded ways possibelfor fuck's sake, if we reach a point of being too successful then make BARRIER OR EVENTUALLY CONTAINMENT PLANETS that we can't crack to keep the faction open even when they're knocked out, if plot demands it FORCE INVADE LIKE WHEN THE BOTS CAME BACK, or open MORE SECTORS, anything but this faggot bullshit of making every other all hands on deck bullshit defense have the absolute minimum timer simultaneous to one or two or three more, having secret hidden liberation -% that can't be seen without external tools, enough is enoughthe GM keeping the broad details and definite ends of the plot on rails is one thing; but the way Arrowhead runs the war is more like an insufferable faggot GM who actively fights their players on everything they do, rules lawyers them, obviously fakes his dice rolls behind the screen without even looking at them, and if all that doesn't work outright cheats or shuts them down by fiat. It's not any fun and makes suspending disbelief for the obvious playable prologue and mass test of the final systems for the actual war impossible.>>485014416original Helldivers only ever had one sector per faction being pushed at a time, biomes/planets were tied to a given difficulty level in a sector and all pushed the same overall sector liberation. Was much more streamlined than what we have, even if it had lesser potential. Ran largely without intervention. And yes, you could destroy factions completely. This inevitably led to bugs being defeated and locked first, at which point faggot bugdivers would quit until the next war, and if faction fatigue set in hard enough with too long of a march to win then the last man Illuminate or Cyborgs could simply end up winning by default as too many players fuck off and refuse to finish the fight.
>>485010003Our Leader Is Guaranteed To Be A NEET Poopsock, And We Will Devolve Into A Clique And Eventually Die Out Entirelythat probably won't fit so just "Every /vg/ guild ever" will do
>>485010003Aren't platoons too small for a name?
JUST BRING BACK THE FUCKING KINO MOON PLANETS I HATE FOG I HATE FOG I HATE FOG
>16k on vega and still no progressI can handle some railroading but that's pretty BS.
>>485015594>no progressActually, we're losing ground on it
>6 months ago this game had 400k active people, now it's down to 40kHow are they not firing ANYONE? Does no one at the top think "who fucked up this much?"
So does extra padding that has 150 armor give you the speed of 100 but 150 armor? Or is the base 150 and it just gove you extra armor that isn't really in the description ?
why are numbesfags so fucking retarded?

I really really really hate you.
>>485015849They made this game expecting 15k players at most. Losing all those players did them a favour.
>>485016395>sonygame was supposed to launch with PSN registration required, you really think they WANTED their GaaS cash cow to kill over after losing CoD? If anything I see them investing in more coop shit since this and the ghost of tsushima MP were well received. Just means they're gonna be more anal about linking at launch for PC.
>>485016996It's supposed to be a story, for a game, anon. Did you yell at the TV when you saw Darth Vader cut Luke's hand off too?
>>485017310>Did you yell at the TV when you saw Darth Vader cut Luke's hand off too?
>>485017310Everyone here is annoyed that Joel tweaks some numbers in an excel spreadsheet to eliminate any semblance of player input. It'd be more like if the rebels were genuinely going to win at Hoth and then suddenly the amount of imperial troops on the ground magically quadrupled in size.
You don't yell at the TV when you see your team losing, specially when the ref is doing whatever he wants, right anon? No one is THAT invested in something they find fun, right???
>quickplay into a game>drop into mission>immediately get kickedmake your session private then you fucking retards
>>485017381>thousands of game related examples he could've used>DUDE STAR WARSNot even gonna get into part where joel is a shitty DM
when are failed defenses going to inherit the full built up liberation value instead of dumping to a perfect even 50% even while being a cunthair from completion before the arbitrary timer's up, what is this faggotry?
>>485017545damn you're giving me flashbacks to the luck fag in /sfg/ from way back when
>Aesir Pass has fallen>X-45 must be held, no matter the costUhhhhh no thanks bro, bye
wow!
>Vega Bay has 17K people>Progress is still negative
>>485018262But the Story(tm), anon, the Story(tm)! The Story(tm) of Helldivers 2(tm - product of Arrowhead Games(tm), published by Sony Entertainment, Ltd. ((tm)). The Story(tm) as devised by Joel! That Story(tm)! Don't you want to see where the plot will go in this thrilling harrowing adventure?!
>>485018743How the fuck was holding Aesir Pass meant to link up with the Ymir sector when the Andromeda system + 2 planets are still in the way?
>the strategic viability of establishing a connection to our forces in the Ymir Sector has been significantly reduced.The fuck is he talking about? It wouldn't have mattered at all even if he allowed us to defend Aesir Pass then magically conquered Marfark and Matar Bay in record time, this isn't HoI4 and supply lines don't supply shitIs this why he's incapable of coming up with decent objectives? He doesn't even know how the fuck does this work?
>>485018875>Joel: "Ah shit.">hastily redraws supply maps, acts like it was always that way to begin with
>Aesir passSo does Joel think that we need a contiguous set of supply lines back to Super Earth or something? I don't think we even had that in the first place.
>Now there's people complaining because they didn't listen to the alert/were too stupid to read a notification.
>>485018743Serf force as useful as ever.
gunship patrols need to be nerfed
>>485019762>The Automatons have launched a surprise attack on Aesir Pass. If it falls, it will jeopardize efforts to rescue our position in the Ymir Sector.The only way this jeopardized the Ymir Sector is making a bunch of retards go defend a useless planet instead of concentrating on making a buffer zone between the Automatons and X-45
>X-45 must be held whatever the costSo how long until Joel launches an unwinnable attack against X-45? Sixty minutes? 90?
>>485019672>So does Joel think that we need a contiguous set of supply lines back to Super Earth or something?It makes zero sense, the entire Ymir sector is a super earth enclave. If we need a direct line to SE space to get to a planet, then X-45 is already lost and has been since way before the MOI'm not even opposed to the idea, but that would entail the same to the other factions so we could hold 3 entire sectors just by capturing all the border planets
>Select Helldive>Connects me to a level 9 in a dif1 missionWhatever, here I go
>Full force of Terminid and bot meet the full might of the helldiver>Get their back broken>A third of the bot force meet the full might of the Serf>The serf don't even last 15 minute
>>485018875I'm sure if Joel didn't jump the gun and launch defenses that could not all be completed in a reasonable amount of time even if everyone wordlessly perfectly coordinated AND the bugdivers got off their asses, that it would've resulted in the SEAF doing something useful for once by messing with botfront base liberation %, or punching through to the next planet(s) on their own, maybe there would've been a followon MO to do these things, somethingbut we didn't, because Joel overfucked us because he was mad that we actually coordinated and got Meissa as a buffer with time to spare, so he short circuited everything out of spite in a pure Alexusism as applied to galactic map GMing instead of weapon balance
>>485020058Can't be that important of a planet if command hasn't allocated us additional resources in defense of it.
Well, this has been a shitshow of an MOIf y'all excuse me, I'll be farming SC in Crimisica for the White Wolf armor
do you guys really think that joel nigger really got mad we played the game and formed a buffer around X-45? i think this is just pure ineptitude. like raw, unadulterated mental retardation. it doesnt make sense. i dont think hes throwing a chud tantrum i just think hes retarded (probably a nonwhite)
Can anyone else confirm this?When I'm looking at my map rader, I can see enemies (for example like Troopers) moving at very high speed towards my location (when waiting for extraction for example). When they come closer and into my line of sight, they slow down to normal speed (on the map). It's very consistent for me and the speed of the dots depend on distance towards the player. I'm also playing solo.
you're all overthinking this. joel is profoundly retarded, yes, but he's not throwing a chud tantrum or an alex-autismo attack. He's, again, far too incompetent for that. This is ALL pre-scripted with very very few exceptions (Mort comes to mind). Welcome to Helldivers 2, the game where everything is made up and the liberation rates don't matter.
>>485021569Post lobby, I need Super Shekels
>>485022050how fast are we talking about? commissars and sword raiders can run really fast
>>485022334very fast, even "skipping" minor obstacles. Also it's the whole patrol group that does it and it includes normal troopers.
>>485022226Give me a second
What order to buy the new ship modules? I already got the 10% reload one
>>485022050I have noticed but not tested this too. They're probably moving as abstractions across the map in the direction of their patrol route to save a bit of your computer's processing power and only actually spawn in when you look at them.
>>485022501OkayI have no idea how to post lobby
>>485022784Here's mine, let's make some money: steam://joinlobby/553850/109775242423391737/76561198029796764
>>485022191That guy's son is a tranny now
>>485009732Now that the dust has settled, is it pay to win? Are there any paid DLCs or microtransactions (I don't see any at the Steam page)?
>>485022191Is there any other jungle biome planet on the bot side or x-45 is the only one ? In which case it was poor positioning on Joel part for a planet that meant to be play for a long time.
>>4850226295% cooldown is probably the best one overall, followed by 10% reload or no support weapon call-in. Combining 5% cooldown with 10% Eagle reload or supply weapon call-in is probably the most impactful first two together. Being able to knock 15% off eagle rearm is nothing to scoff at and anything that reduces call-in time is also a cooldown reduction since stratagems don't start reloading/recharging until they're done and shaving off call-in time will remove several seconds from effective cooldown.
I'm really digging the servo assisted heavy armor against bots lately.Orbital walking barrage fires 380mm shells, right?

>>485023128you can unlock everything in the game for free (except the preorder stuff, i think its like 20 bucks upgrade, not worth it)it just takes a while to do it for freeall the paid stuff uses a somewhat rare currency called super credits that you can find in game to unlock packs called warbonds that have some armors and weaponsyou can buy the credits with real money alsothe armors are mostly aesthetic and you can get stuff that does the same things for free most of the timethe guns are the most game changing thing, but you could play fine without themyou could reasonably do maybe 2 or 3 warbonds just by farming super credits but it'd take a significant amount of time and beyond that you'll likely be too burnt out to do it any longerbut its only 10 bucks per warbond which isn't that bad, it's certainly cheaper to pay for it for with less than an hours worth of pay because it'll take a lot longer to farm the amount of credits you'd need in gamei'd say maybe 2 of the warbonds have some somewhat gamechanging gear in it that you should grind for free to get, then if you want anything else you can pay for later

>>485031713>be ignorant>complainUnderstandable. The game is poorly designed.
>>485031713I was farming rares on dif 4 missions and the game never stopped throwing enemies at meAlso managed to not kill a BT with 4 500kgs, I don't blame casuals for getting fed up
>>485028414Rovers are so forgiving nowadays, I remember when these shits used to either insta-headshot or cut half your health away no matter the armor level you had.
What is it about factory striders that makes everyone just shit the fucking bed? They're not even scary god damn. They're practically defenseless if you just shoot off their fucking chin guns. I literally can't remember the last time that I saw a teammate make an effort to defang the things. They die in ~1 magazine of support weapon fire if you get in close and fuckup their belly, and a bit more if you poke out their eye from a bit further away. But good luck getting into position to just kill it with one mag since everyone and their mother seems to be intent on wasting a good 25 minutes worth of stratagem strike cooldowns on it. God help them if a second, third, or fourth one shows up and you can't throw a dozen strats at them all.
>>485033647>What is it about factory striders that makes everyone just shit the fucking bed?They look cool
>>485026630while they were active, SERF training facilites buffed liberation progress. unfortunately those bonuses no longer exist as they were tore down, like yesterday or something.
>>485033647Go ahead and kill it yourself then
>>485034327I do. When the 2nd and 3rd ones show up and all of their shit is on cooldown. I've lost count of the amount of times I've just ended one 2 seconds after it dropped on our heads only to get splattered by 3 airstrikes.
>>485034327>fuck up the factory strider with my HMG to the belly>die to clusterbombs from my "allies" because bugdivers love throwing that shit at everythingGetting close is literally suicide with the braindead stratagem spam the rest of the squad does
>>484966442>try this>go from 40-60 fps to solid 120 on max settings
>>485033647you don't even have to bother with chin-guns, just chuck OPS and EA on it and it dies to that. or just single EA if you aim it well from the side.but good luck finding someone that can do that
>>485034879You should at least take out the chin gun. You can do it in a few sec with many support weapons. Then , you can worry about how to finish it off
>>485030242might as well seeing as all of the previous work also amounted to fuck all
>>485030242Might have something to do with Joel shitting on everyones efforts. The plebs are waking up. They're learning that MOs are on rails and Joel is a vengeful shit tier DM that punishes the players for not doing exactly what he wants them to.So why should bugdivers force themselves to play bots? Community effort is irrelevant, Joel alone decides whether we fail or succeed the MO. Just play whatever faction you want, on whatever planet you want. Joel won't let us push past certain sectors anyway.
>>485033647I'll knock out the guns and let the rocket sentry handle the rest, you wanna walk under it be my guest.
>>485035623This maybe would have been true if we didn't already have 30% of the playerbase actively ignoring bot MO from day 1.
>>485035731still doesn't change the fact joel has this shit on rails. Lets not forget joel had to make a mini MO because he couldn't get spergs off of the creek and the planet has been damn near locked since.

Early thoughts on Commando:4 missiles with a 90 sec cooldown.Pretty good against devastators.Missiles fly too slow to kill gunships.(EAT/2) / 10. Probably not worth using.
MATAR BAY HAS A .75% DECAY RATE! HELLDIVERS ATTACK NOW!
OH LOOK X-45 IS BEING ATTACKED. WHAT A SURPRISE. THIS IS THE GAMBIT TO END ALL GAMBITS.
>>485038651
>>485039662>44% of players on one planet>still losingfuck you joelwhy even bother with the whole MO bullshit, just give the bots the entire sector
I never thought I'd see it but the autocannon sentry is now the worst sentry of the bunch
>>485039843You're not supposed to look at the raw data!https://youtu.be/YWyCCJ6B2WE
>>485039662and some of you really invest paying attention to this shit
>>485040215I haven't been taking sentries much recently, why do you think that?
How are we liking the Commando so far?
x-45 was 100% liberal earlier todayHow is it 0%?
>>485040426it's a defence you dummy
>>485040426The republicans cheated
>>485040426Because it's a defense
>>485040323>wastes 3 shots every time it targets something>slow as fuck>no target prioritization, it sees a trooper/scavenger bug it will focus fire several volleys of its tiny ammo supply into it while a heavy approaches and rapes it>high teamkill potentialIt's dogslop, basically in the place of the old machine gun sentry in that there's no reason to take it when a straight upgrade version of it existsThe literal one thing it can do better than the rocket sentry is occasionally kill a gunship or two
>>485039281My early thoughts are "too long a cooldown"I finished off a strider through the face though it was pretty damaged by my AMR and two airstrikes that failed to kill it beforehand (tree bullshit)
>>485040632>My early thoughts are "too long a cooldown"it's basically 2 EAT drops tied in one package. If anything the cooldown isn't long enough
Rocks fall, everyone dies>t. Joel
>>485040409pair it with eats and you get to start any fight with at least 6 rockets. You can also disable the laser-guided part of it unlike the fucking Airburst launcher lmao. My limited experience with the commando against bots is that it's fantastic against tanks and turrets while allowing you to start any engagements with 4 rockets on whatever you hate the most then another 4 rockets 4s later when your commando drop for that specific fight lands.
>fire commando>flip a coin whether the laser guide will actually make the rocket follow>rocket travels so quick its not worth doing anything tricky with it anyway
>>485039662BRAVO JOEL
>Every time I join a game, within 2 mins someone else disconnects and I ruin their game because the matchmaker cant handle my internetKekI forced 2 people to disconnect last game apparently.I have yet to have a single game today where I don't lose half the players, disconnect myself, return to ship, or crash.Gg AH, G fucking G. 100% unplayable fucking mess.
>commando>hmg>supply pack>OPS>PP armorLet me guess, you *need* more?
>gunships on x-45All the trees give you plenty of cover at least
>>485041464>flip a coin whether the laser guide will actually make the rocket followat least you can disable it if you want.
HOLD THE FUCK UP NIGGAS, THEY RELEASED THE COMMANDO??? I'm wage slaving right now, someone confirm
We're going to lose x45.Joelsaysno.
>>485041958What is PP armor
>>485042145It's a free strat on x-45 right now. Bretty good.
>>485042151>huge attack coming from Vega Bay which we only just recently lost in defenseNone of this shit makes sense and I am beyond caring now.
>>485042224Peak Physique
>>485042257Nice, can't wait to go home to try it out
>>485042301Yeah the resource the bot have doesn't make any damn sense.
>>485042151Half the playerbase on one planet and it doesn't fucking matterTake the funpill and just play on whatever planet you want against whatever faction you want. Your actions don't matter next to the will of Joel.
>>485041958I *need* access to unsafe weaponry which I hope we'll get after we secure more purple stuff from the spaghetti dimension
Commando shots to kill (% of ammunition consumed from a single drop):Tank: 2 to the turret (50% of a drop)Hulk: 1 to the eye (25%)Factory Strider: 2 to the eye (50%)Gunship: 1 to the engine (25%)Dropship: 2 to the engine (50%)Charger: 2 to the head (50%)Behemoth: 2 to the head (50%)Bile Titan: 2 to the head (50%)EAT shots to kill, allowing maximum efficiency with stripping armour and finishing off with a primary:Tank: 1 to the turret + primary (50% of a drop)Hulk: 1 to the eye (50%)Factory Strider: 2 to the eye (100%)Gunship: 1 to the engine (50%)Dropship: 1 to the engine (50%)Charger: 1 to the head (50%)Behemoth: 1 to the leg + primary (50%)Bile Titan: 2 to the head (100%)The commando is more efficient and has the benefit of being laser guided and having all of its shot in a single package meaning you'll never be scrambling to pick up the second tube. It is strictly better than the EAT.It can also (currently) destroy fabricators from any angle.
So we lose X-45 in 22 hours and we then have another 24-30 hours to capture it back, presumably if Joel doesn't take a gargantuan shit on the decay rate at that point.
>>485042664Wait, it's laser guide???How do you guide it???
>>485042664Lmao, the fab is definitely not intentional. That's insane
>>485042664I wonder how AH will nerf it considering the community is feeling very nerf-averse. Can't have the players feeling powerful.
>>485042943Hold right mouse button/ADS and drag the mouse around.You can also disable the laser guiding for dumbfire mode but I don't see why you would
>>485000781Interdependence is not the same as cooperation. Forcing people together discourages working together. Cooperation has to be voluntary by definition. Individuality is ontologically good. Anyone without schizoid personality disorder can see this. Fire the balance team. Restaff AH.
>>485043214Goddamit now you guys remind me of the hypocrite asshole who kicked me even though I was doing everything right.
>>485043214I find running off by yourself is fine. Just know when to disengage.
>>485043441Define "doing everything right". Playing according to AHs fuckass uninformed balance decisions is a mistake. Being forced to move in a blob of 4 at all times isn't fun and therefore not right either.
>>485043105>but I don't see why you wouldSo I can dive into cover while launching a volley of rockets. Or off a large rock/building while firing off rockets.
I move alone all the timesimply attune to bullet hell gameplay and kill 500-1000 mobs per missionnot handholding nor babysitting anyone
>>485042683>WHAT?! The botdivers are WINNING?! Not on MY watch!!!
>>485043214The level design (or lack thereof) combined with the fact that the premium currency is scattered accross the completely open map actively discourage cooperation. Mind bogglingly bad game design
>>485044005
>>485043105I would only really use it for airship
every time I run off to die as a distraction I don't and it's very underwhelming
Why are the SEAF so worthless? Have they ever won a single battle without Helldivers holding their hands?
>another AT stratagem instead of making the non-AT ones more versatilebad call
Been a while since I played. I heard there were some weapon adjustments done. Does penetrator actually work now?
>>485044468The libpen was completly ignored and is now the worst AR in the game by a mile
>416Anti-content faggot seething once again
where do I shoot the walking factory dogs? I don't see exposed glowing bits.
>>485045553magdump the belly with your laser cannon, heavy machine gun or autocannon. You can also disable the two front turrets and shoot the glowing eye
>>485045371>you refuse to glaze the swedish incompetents for bad content? y-yuo faggot!You will get ragdolled and have a headache of a time because niggers will want to RP as Arnold instead of bringing weapons that can clear chaff and air patrols.
>>485045807>waah waah waah i am literally incapable of liking anythingjust kill yourself
>>485045735AMR also works
>>485045553>medium penetrating weapon (HMG, autocannon, laser)Shoot out the chin guns and then shoot into the belly for kill.>heavy pen (spear, recoilless, eat).Shoot out the big gun on the back to stop it from shooting back. Then you can just blast it whereever until it dies. Will probably take all your ammo though.
>>485045884there's just nothing to like about yet another rocket launcher, it's a superfluous addition with no benefit other than coolness factor, and I'm not 14 so I can't fully appreciate that, sorry if it hurts your fee-fees
>>485042371At this rate we'll lose the planet and you won't get to try it out.
Just did the defense mission on the new planet and was dropping to 20fps
>>485045807So we should never get anything because someone could make a bad build? I don't get it.
>>485047403>won't update their upscaling options>won't improve their AA options which DLSS or a newer version of FSR (they currently use FSR fucking 1) would cover>won't optimize their game>actively make it worse with every update, might be related to the anticheat>even opening the options will halve your fps until the game is restartedit's impressive how two swedish companies were convinced to use this dogshit engine and refuse to move on from it
>>485047403kek it just now fucking crashed for me
>>485047546if we weren't a player base dominated by cuckolds and held AH to some standards instead, we would demand stratagems that extend and modify the gameplay loopjammer sentry, stratagem launcher, teleporter, LAVs, infantry NPCs, or even just the damn break action shotgunand before you start running your textbook copes, the only reason why we don't have these is because AH is too incompetent to design them
Has anyone else had the bug where the host starts the mission while everyone is not ready on their screen and then the game does to a black screen?
>>485042664Yeah it's good and I will use until they nerf it into the ground
>>485047772How do we demand these strategems? Do we go on reddit and make a petition?
>>485047924Oh so that what happen to my last game. Yes.
Is there any reason to run EAT with the Commando available? Does the EAT hit any breakspots that the Commando doesn't?From what I can tell, EAT is only better against normal chargers - but that doesn't really matter with the behemoth spam, and both EAT and Commando two shot those.
>>485048870Shooting down drop ship a little more consistently maybe.
>>485042664>It can also (currently) destroy fabricators from any angle.
Is the instant weapon dropdown upgrade working as advertised? Can I chuck a beacon at a charger and kill him in one second?
>>485049091it reduces it to about three seconds since it just spawns the hellpod in the air immediately
>>485049046Why would you want to shoot down dropships tho?
Oh it looks like Joel took his foot of X-45's throat for a few hours, we might win this at this rate.
>>485049193Hulk get stuck on air sometime if you do that. And to block the bot from.marching forward while your mortar finish them off.
>>485049193it's cool
>>485050562Imagine if it actually did something, like increasing the time until the bots can call in more reinforcements because they need to get a new dropship first
>>485049228But see whatvam excellent GM he is? Now that X-45 has been attacked we all feel "Tense" and "Nervous" over whether the Automaton Menace will seize the planet back. What riveting storytelling. Truly, NOBODY anticipated that X-45 would be attacked again by our wise and clever GM! I was so persinally overcome with emotion that I immediately went to the super credit store and purchased $100 worth of SCs just to show my support for Arrowhead!
>>485050903either that or it flat out killing everything below it from both the drop and explosion would be very welcome and make the average bot game much cooler. Imagine seeing people actually take out dropships and the resulting explosions from a distance.As it stands now it's at least worth shooting them down if they're next to a jammer/detector/fabricator since they'll likely take them down along with them.
swamp biome on bots is just about unplayable kekjust 1 mission rotated like 10 people crashing outfucking swedes
>>485051846>heavy devastator clips into a tree>game turns into a stuttering mess until it dies
>>485048129>Do we go on reddit and make a petition?
>play any faction on diff 5-8>crazy amounts of enemies everywhere, every fucking mission now feels like one second in the other direction and the entire mission will be lost because if enemy snowballing, way harder than any 9 I have played preciously>play diff 9>its the same normal diff 9 spawns and thanks to the other difficulties being borked it feels like a diff 4 now>diff 9s now are the easiest thing ever, routinely max out on almost all samplesFIX YOUR FUCKING GAME ARROWHEAD, MAKE 5-8 FEEL LIKE HOW THEY WERE BEFORE ALREADY WHAT IS THIS BENNY HILL BULLSHIT
Haven't played in awhile, and I've got just enough credits for a warbond. Which of the last three is probably best to grab?
>>485051117I'm glad you feel the same Anon. I was so impressed by this gambit that I turned my review from negative and positive!
>>485048870EAT is a secondary support weapon meant to work in tandem with non-AT supports. For example, you can get away with using the grenade launcher or any of the MGs on bug d9s if you also bring EAT so you have something to contribute to unfucking armor spam situations. There are people that run EAT as their sole support weapon, but that's not the brightest idea since any of the long-cooldown AT weapons would serve you better, and in case of Spear and RR all you have to sacrifice is the semi-useless backpack slot.
>>485053313easyDemocratic Detonation for the grenade pistol - essential piece of kit if your loadout lacks explosives to get rid of bug holes and fabs - and Adjudicator, which is decent now as far as ARs go.
>>485053694Plus if you're religiously spamming EATs on the map then your squadmates and you always have a rocket ready to launch (if your commando is not ready at the moment or whatever)
>>485053869That too, feels great to double tap a surprise titan with your mate.
>>485053313Viper Commando if you hate aim drag and want to predatormaxx. The weapons are meh.Democratic Detonation for three good weapons, the Adjudicator has good AP and works well for both bots and bugs, The Eruptor primary has high damage and terrible firerate but is quite ammo efficient because of it and it can blow up fabs/holes + shit on scout striders. But you need to run an MG or HMG with it to not be a griefing useless prick. There's also a Grenade Pistol which also blows up holes and fabricators. This is probably the warbond you should get.Polar Patriots is alright, but I wouldn't get it if you can only get one. The Verdict pistol is good and so is the Tenderizer AR. The plasma purifier is terrible.
>>485053313Democratic detonation simply for the grenade pistol if nothing else. You will fall in love with it.
>>485052979Do you mean that 9 is now basically as easy as 4 to 8 or that 9 is easier than 4 to 8Because I play solo on 6/7 and I need to farm samples
>Comando launchers have a map icon and can still be picked up even when they're out of ammo>they also can bug out and show that they have a rocket left, both in the model and the "mag" indicator and don't discard automaticallyI wonder how long it will be before they fix this
>>485053313Steel vet = cutting edge = democratic detonation > polar = viperSteel vet has the most strong and straight forward weaponsCutting edge and democratic detonation have good weapons and utility, these 2 compliment each other. Weapons in these 2 are more utility centric with very good CC. Imo, get cutting edge first for the stun grenade. These 2 will make bot significantly more manageable once you figure out how to use their kits/weaponsPolar has some solid weapons while viper has good armor and booster
Commando fucks tanks
>>485054675i used it and it blows up bot fabricators too
>>485054469Been running ops for the past few days on both factions, all mission types. There is something about 5-8 diff now that the enemies keep coming and just dont stop coming, and thats BEFORE all the crazy new patrol spawns that didn't exist before that all "conveniently" meander their way across the map extremely close to where your current position is. Diff 9 feels to me like its stayed the same, whereas the new 5-8s have rocketed past it in difficulty. I have always run 9s before but now I might do so exclusively. The other levels are simply too ridiculous.
>>485054003You can run LC or HMG with eruptor on bot and flamethrower, MG, or Arc with eruptor on bug. You can run Arc + eruptor on bot too but it is noticably not as strong. You should run laser drone backpack with eruptor on bug (except with flamethrower where you need shield) and it's an extremely strong combo. You can honestly run eruptor with AT if you wear the drone laser backpack because the drone covers eruptor's weakness on bug well enough
steam://joinlobby/553850/109775242500199350/76561198126520852bots d9 on x-45. time to try out the commando.
>>485053313Democratic Detonation: Grenade Pistol is top tier and worth the warbond for that weapon alone, but Adjudicator, Eruptor and Exploding Crossbow aren't bad.Polar Patriots: I hear good things about the Tenderizer and Pummeler, but ultimately only the Incendiary Impact Grenade and Verdict are worth it.Viper Commandos: Experimental Infusion is one of the top tier boosters right now, and Bushwhacker can be situational depending on your loadout. The rest of the warbond is kind of shit though.As usual release order is generally how you want to purchase them. Since you already have Steeled Veterans and Cutting Edge the rest don't matter all that much.
>ping a hellbomb close by to us>foggy as fuck so team mates hoses that area in gunfire and takes us all out with the crashed hellbombCustom call outs when? Everything you ping is just "bot fabricator" or "over here"
>>485055439They just need to splice one of the existing Hellbomb lines, and use that for when pinging one, along with a specific red marker.They also need to make the calldown marker for Smoke Strike and Eagle Smoke blue instead of red, so that teammates know at a glance that it's not a damage-dealing stratagem.
>>485054946Since I haven't played upper difficulties for a while I didn't have a point of comparison but I did notice everything you're saying, specially the infuriating infinite patrolsI sometimes play 4 to farm rares and bbe quicker and I do thought it was as hard as a 6
>"Oh, a new weapon, let's try...">open stratagem menu>crashNope, still not going to play this piece of trash game
They are going to nerf the commando won't they?
>look for diff. 9 on X-45>puts me into diff 1 gamehuh?Also the commando seems really good for dropships, does it oneshot the engines?
>>485057000Maybe just fix them destroying fabs from any angle.
When the game isn't crashing, swamp biome is not a terrible place to fight automatons. It's quite easy to control LoS with all the trees and shit.Super spire is a pain in the dickhole to spot though holy shit. Does it spawn on the edges or something?
Why are rocket defense missions such retard magnets?I just had one where everyone else brought a mortar. Two of them brought the EM mortar, too. And one genius also brought tesla tower and antipersonnel mines.Two factory striders showed up and we lost since I got ragdolled out of cover before I could take out the chin guns.
I appreciate how the rocket dev salvo cooldown is almost exactly the length of time it takes to get knocked over, ragdoll around on the floor for a few seconds and then stand back up.
>>485057374Because this mission is just dumbfounded fun. You have to actually try to lose since its so braindead easy
>>485057565It is fun until the mortar morons show up and you spend half the mission getting ragdolled around.Without fail those same retards fail to bring anything that can kill striders and tanks.
>>485057374those are meta picks for bugsyou've been bugboozled, my friend
>>485057000You had to ask?
>>485057374I had that yesterday. The mortars killed me and then the mission decended into chaos. Luckily we made it extract.
>>485057496I personally love that rockets salvos can come from a rocket dev from any direction, and an animation cancel (like them walking over rough terrain) makes them instantly fire instead off canceling the salvovery fair and balanced
>>485057813>not having fun with the side objective: destroy sentires without being detected [0/3]
>>485057374Just destroy them, it's what I do when they hit me

>Same % of players>3x the liberation rateWhat the fuck is going on
>>485061563Fucking with decay rates wasn't enough for Joel so he decided it's finally time to rig every variable in the system
>>485060960while not as nearly as bad, i called in a commando earlier and momentarily dropped my AC for it and one of the jackasses on my team decided to steal my AC and run off with it. it wasn't even fully loaded
>>485057374What's a meta strategy for it? Since I ply Solo I avoid it like the plague due to feeling there's not enough strategems to use
Friendship ended with EAT, commando is now my best friend
>>485055242Crashed.GGs
Commando blows up fabricators without aiming at the weakspot and fucking up tanks from the front? Not on my watch, expect a fix in an hour. I don't care if it's the week-end or my vacation, I will fix this RIGHT NOW!
>>485061563>Joel: STOP THE COUNT
How the fuck did they even manage to make the commando blow up fabricator from any hit, assuming it's a mistake?????
>>485062730Small indie company Pls understand
>>485062281we did wait a bit for you.GG :)
>we totally fixed the infinite loading screen guysthe swedenoid lies as easily as he breathes.
>>485062730The projectile has a demolition value of 40, basically the same as an airstrike, so it destroys on contact. There's no way it's not intentional but because no one seems to be testing shit it looks like no one raised the issue
>>485062730It doesn't even kill devs with a bodyshot, idk what kind of whack damage formula it follows.
>>485042664I like the commando
I wish the sample icon and ambient noise were perceptible from a bit further away. I'm a retard who can't remember where the sample spawns are for each of the varieties of base, so I always have to spend extra time combing the bigger ones after clearing them out to actually find anything.
>>485061793>Bots focus all their effort on one planet>Their number remains unchanged on other planet or even becomes worse>Bug number decrease for no fucking reason>???????
>>485064225Demo value has nothing to do with damage, it's used for clutter/structures. It's the reason why bullets can't destroy cache doors, AC rounds can't destroy rogue stations and EATs can't destroy jammers. The Spear also has a demo value of 40 btw
>>485064610An automated system would had to account for enemy force distribution unlike joel who can conjure enemies out of the ether
>>485064610They just need to hold themselves to an internal rule like each faction having 20% total forces to distribute as needed across all fronts. 5 planets? Each has 4%/hour forces. Bots want to focus 8% on a single planet? Fine, but other planets drop to 2%/hour.
Has anyone had the bug where you get stuck in the barbed wire damage state if you ragdoll through barbed wire and then you become a dead man walking because you can only stay alive for as long as you can replenish your stims.
>bot MO
>>485064812RIP slugger.
>>485061894>soloNo clue.I run AC, EAS, EAT, autocannon sentry
WTF, I didn't know it was possible to survive a bot mine with just heavy armor, no fortified. Last game I dived out the front of a bunker and landed directly on a mine like a true tard, but it left me with like 3-5% HP somehow.
>>485065380I think it's a bug. I've survived a bot mine in light armour.
>>485064863>hold themselves to an internal ruleBut then they wouldn't be able to asspull shit like now, why limit themselves?
>>485065028>this gets posted all the time>and yet they say its not bugdivers, its actually botdivers that whine

>>485054621they'll nerf its structure-killing power before they fix a bug like that lol
>>485066050>getting ragdolledSkill issue. Now go run another marathon away from bugs. Don't think you hit your daily 100km yet.
>>485065997>>485066307I mean why bother? You liberate a planet and then the devs just hit the delete button on everything you did because they're butthurt about you doing it too well.Why bother engaging with such a blatantly rigged system?
>>485066307>Guys come on try the new suicide rocket launcher>Guys come on try the new potato gun mechI'll let the beta testers try it out first
>>485066712That's the problem with a forever war as they promised in HD2. Nothing is ever taken or lost. Joel will make sure of that. You could wave a magic wand and suddenly have every single Helldiver as of the initial release of the game (400,000 players) work singlemindedly towards taking Cyberstan and it'll never work because the bots will magically have a regen rate of 99.99999999% per hour because Joel demands it.
Funny that stratagem unlock MOs are always bot side and always end up being better for bugs
>>485066712Basically. I mostly just use MOs as a guide to take a break from one faction, and try the other for variety.The liberation rates are made up and we're just railroaded as Joel waffles around to maintain the status quo.
>>485066294>stab stim into neck>FWEEEEEEEEEEEEP>something grazes my helldiver for an attosecond>cancelled
>>485067978I don't think the bugs are keeping weapons in their nests tbf

>>485069328how do i do what this loadout already does better? what do i sub? eruptor for walkers and massed regular bots, HMG for everything else (including hulk headshots), guard dog to keep me safe. what's suboptimal about my loadout, bros? what should i replace, and with what?
>close eyes>see scout striders emerging from fogTime for a break.
>>485070385seems pretty alright. You could replace guard dog for supply pack if you wanna give ammo or feel ammo starved or want to abuse grenades. But not really necessary.
>>485069328>>485070385JAR-5 is straight up betterGrenade pistol can be more useful but it doesn't matterNot sure why you aren't using the supply pack with the HMG
>>485068512They are coming up with new fire weapons so just make a weapon that's fueled on element 710. A stronger but more dangerous fuel source compared to regular flamethrower. Using the bug juice to burn bugs must feel cathartic.

Doesn't the commando rockets do very little damage compared to an eat invididually?

>finally a new stratagem that's strong and fun to use>it's going to get giga nerfed
>>485073827I think it's a 3 or 4-shot to the face of a hulk, might be really good for BT's
>>485074527Why are people panicking about a nerf then
>>485073827Does it actually matter when half the time the hitbox RNG eats your damage anyways? 4 are much better than 2
>>485074584it has a really good call-in time and it's hard to miss with it. It's also really good for rapid fire and smaller targets like Dev's

>>485074584They nerfed the EATs by making them do that shitty cap animation, they're definitely making this garbage next patch
>>485066050bugs are undeniably the tutorial faction though, if you don't have twice as many bot kills in your stats I'll assume you're low IQ and possibly nonwhite as well

>>485065753>the bot diver will even whine about being called a whiner
>>485074584Because it's AH
>>485074405The only thing I think should be nerfed is building destruction because as is it's just a better spear that is instead cooldown reliant instead of ammo.>>485042664Assuming >>485074584 is accurate (at work myself) it invalidates the existence of two other support weapons.
>>485074862And this is why I will swear by the radar range booster. You can spot them on the map before they even enter visual range, and can plan accordingly.
>>485074961>bugs are undeniably the tutorial faction thoughNta, but that's a big problemBots are harder than bugs in everyway basically. So instead if having two different factions that are equally hard in different ways you have an easier and a harder faction, which shouldn't be happening
>>485075380It's much worse than an easier and a harder factionYou have a melee faction where if you have situational awareness you'll always succeed and a ranged faction that'll make you die to endless rocket barrages whether you're behind cover or not
>queuing into D7's instead of D9's on the assumption that, despite there being less total samples, I can extract with more since there's less fighting>every single D7 shitter group extracts as soon as objectives are done with 20+ minutes to spare, only getting 7-12 rares in that time>keep asking on voice why we're extracting already without even looting the map >no one ever replies, just silently stands there on extractionI'm playing with bots, I have to be. This isn't real.
>>485075709YepAnd the ranged faction actually has much tougher melee than the allegedly melee one
>>485075380It's a design issue. They cannot equalize difficulties between the two because bugs are more melee focused, so you will never get gibbed from across the map by something you couldn't see, and a lack of military infrastructure due to them being actual bugs means they have very little aerial presence.
>>485075939But there are always to equalize themThe bots are also much deadlier than the bugs on melee (barring stalkers) and seem to spam even more units than themThe average unit also tends to be better armoredSimply put, the bugs have no advantages over the bots
>>485075842Play D6 or go back to D9 instead, you're bothering normal people that don't fall for the grind meme
>>485075842I'm here to play the game, if you want to pick flowers you can do that in your spare time.
>>485075842usually i get plenty of samples by picking everything on my way why do you need so much time?
>>485075842>voicei would extract just to spite you, type like a normal person or get a group of friends to go on coms.
Okay how will they gut the commando and make it even worse than the airburst launcher. Let's hear it.

There is nothing more disgusting than hearing shitty mic audio taking you out of the game. >m-muh coordinationI routinely play and beat d9s with randoms in full squads and there has never been a single time I have thought "if only we had done voice chat.">dogs barking, kids screaming, angry wife, smoke detector alarm chewing vaping, potato chip bag rustlingHow about no. Also, you're playing on d7, which is where all the shitters still flock to despite d6 opening up for super rares. They can't hang and are barely hanging on, so they extract immediately.

The demo value is definitely getting lowered to 30, right now it'd one shot spore spewers and shrieker nests from render distance, and even then it's going to be twice as better as the EATs
>>485077410I bet you're a console player that has never even conceived of push to talk.
>>485072032I assume the commando is killing the fabricator attached to the strat jammer here and not just straight up killing the jammer with direct fire?

>>485078167It was funny, I laughed at least
>>485078459How is that? Explain your thought process. Also, are you able to visualize an apple in your mind's eye?
>>485075842Anything less than D9 is NPC territory and you only have yourself to blame for thinking otherwise.
>>485039281I mean are the rockets the same damage as EATs or are they weaker? If it takes me more than 2 of them to kill a behemoth then it's not wroth my time
flex with me.
>>485078625Well, first you said>I bet you're a console player that has never even conceived of push to talk.Then he replied>Have you?Implying you didn't shut up, and I found that pretty funnyAnd yes I can visualize an apple in my mind

>>485077582Correct
>>485072032Enjoy it while it lasts. Absolutely cannot fathom how they test (or don't test) new equipment before releasing it. It would be great if EATs had the same function. It's like AH do not have a test environment where they can line up all the enemies and entities to check if shit actually works properly. Or the testers don't actually know what the intention actually is. Is some guy just playing with numbers on a spreadsheet somewhere after the a dev shoved it a patch? Is version control more like version out-of-control?
man I just wanted my 15 hunter kills, not witness the mentally handicapped
>>485079805>9 deathsYeah, you were dead weight
>>485079714I bet it was something like this>Hey I want the new weapon to have less damage per shots, but still be able to destroy fabricators and bug holes>Alright>Can't get the rocket to reliably hit the insides, end up just making it destroy on contact
>>485072032>Meanwhile I've been deleting jammers and bot bases singlehandedly with the spear since it got fixed.Surely this thing will distract hard enough to get nerfed before spear does, right.

I want underground nuke stratagem with 300 sec cooldown that just destroys nests and makes a fuck ton of bugs emerge
>>485079805Can someone explain some of the stats here using this as an example because I've never been able to make sense of some of them. Times reinforcing at 1 each doesn't make sense with the numbers of deaths. Even if each one of you called in 3 reinforcements that would only equate to 12 possible call ins. There are 25 deaths, so there had to have been multiple squad wipes with auto reinforcements without a full 4 man? I feel like that number is always super low based on the number of high casualty missions and people calling reinforcements all the time. Do accidentals count friendly fire kills or yeeting yourself? If the former, shouldn't friendly fire damage be interlinked? I would assume if you caused an accidental, you would have caused or received FF damage. Or does an accidental simply not tally shit like stratagem damage if it results in an outright kill?
>>485080498>>they can't just hire one more person to just test things and go "hey this shits fucked, fix it"
>>485081629reinforces, accidentals, FF damage and reinforces don't track properly

>>485075842If I have a competent team, average samples I get would be 15+ commons, 15+ rares and 4 supers on D7. That's roughly more than 14+ games to get 1 of the new upgrades since commons and rares are what gates you from upgrading often. I don't even care about supers anymore. They're still fun and worth taking but I would rather risk getting into a mob that guards the rares than the supers.
Why is the anti-aliasing so trash? It looks blurry as shit, even 10 year older games have better AA.

>>485085427That was the most schizo decision in recent times, literally breaking things that weren't broken for no reason at all
>>485085634I miss my ballistic shield so much
Always going 300+ kills/0 deaths on D9 bots makes me question how the sub 100 kills/8+deaths players are having any fun against this faction. They're practically just beelining objectives and avoiding all conflicts unless they are an unavoidable one - like gunships - and when it is an unavoidable fight they just chain feed the bots.
>>485086178From my personal experience with 9+ death players, it generally starts with 3 bad players together that are so used to being carried that they're unable to handle enemies when faced with equally bad players. I notice they always end up with more deaths when I run off to do an objective, they lack situational awareness, direction and the ability to kill half the enemies and enemy types using airstrikes.They often build up so many enemies and ignore so many turrets/tanks/striders that even I end up dying.
>>485085427my feels
>>485086178They don't delete the groups they pull and instead run, but not just run, they run into more. Multiply that by the number of players in that area you end up with problems that expand the time window from just dealing with one bot drop to two bot drops. This is almost understandable next to Detection towers, but that's because those towers eliminate the cooldown, and the problem is they have no idea that they should have avoided and avoid standing in the beam.
>>485087062I definitely feel like the bots now punish you more for not actually standing your ground and fighting them to some level. At least enough to clean out all the shitters that can call in a bot drop. But if you've got stratagems that can soak an area in damage then bots are already pretty trivialized, which is always why I find the players that end up dying the most are the ones that don't bring enough AoE against bots.
they really broke this fucking game with the line of sight bullshif and patrols especially on this new planet. im literally getting wallhacked and aimbotted as soon as i leave cover. and its immediate it feels like i get hit with 30 bullets all at once. ill try to relocate around the enviornment and i can see the fucking robots watching me through the cover. and as soon as i pop my head out im either rocket spammed or im immediately dead due to heavy devestator miniguns. even with the extra padding heavy armor. what the fucks going on this game didnt feel like this 2 weeks ago
Also doesn't help that shitters don't know their 500kgs can blow up certain bot sub-objectives. I've had to use mic multiple times to tell people to throw down a 500kg/orbital precision strike on a detector tower to destroy it because these guys have no clue that's a thing.
>>485087543What, you don't enjoy getting one-shot by a strider magically hitting all headshots on a 200 armor helldiver?
the eagle just hits the trees on the endor planet
>Junp into X to check out the new commando >it isn't anything to write home to grandma about >teammates are pants-on-head retarded and don't even grab samples within a 10 foot proximity>they get fixated on every bot patrol and just fight infinite bot drop loops >carry idiots to victory with trusty AC as they die left and right>back to bugs for a better Sunday gaming experience This is the state of diff 9 bots lol?

>>485086178>>485086576>>485087062>>485087341A lot of them learned from watching garbage streamers/youtubers and their "SOLO FULL CLEAR" 'strategies.' They've taken to heart "lessons" like>"we don't need to fight here", *proceeds to just run like fuck from enemy reinforcements and avoid POIs like the plague since they might call in reinforcements.>use stratagem strikes to destroy outposts. This is fine on its own but the problem is they default back to "we don't need to fight here" and then immediately run the fuck off to the next objective instead of looting the base.They've honestly fallen for the meme that it's best to avoid combat at all costs. I fucking watched some of their youtube garbage one day to try to get in their heads and I shit you not some nigger with a lot of upboats was fighting outside some bot medium outpost with his squad. His teammates were fighting the enemies and the reinforcements. The nigger used the spear to destroy one fabricator and then the clip was him running the fuck away to find a hole to reload his spear. Then he blew up the second fabricator, made a comment along the lines "that's nice I love the spear. Easy clap on that base" and then started running off to the next base. A few seconds later he turns around to look at his teammates who are still mopping up the defenders and advancing towards the bases' loot and made a comment like "the fuck are you guys doing? I've already destroyed the base."That's basically it. They don't know how to fight. They actively avoid getting experience in fights. They don't realize that 90% of the samples that they need for their upgrades are inside of the bases and POIs that they avoid like the plague. But they LOVE the fucking super samples since those are "valuable", undefended, and there are ~40 vulgar nicknames for the super rock that tickle their plebbit sense of humor.

>>485099092To be fair I understand why they nerf things into being shit, because stun nades were honestly too good, just like the Commando is right now.And they can't even buff enemy spawns because otherwise the engine would shit itself and plebbit would cry.If it was for me I'd just buff the enemies until what you are fighting genuinely feels like Hell in D9, so the weapon are allowed to be great.As things are, they are way too easy, bots in particular.I don't see a way out, corpo greed ruined everything.
>>485098702Don't worry, as soon as the MO is finished, the Commando will be nerfed. Wouldn't want you to be able to snipe fabricators on top of a hill with a clear line of sight now would we?
>>4850992572/4

>>485095862>>485097867when enemies get 'stuck' on something they default to melee attacking to destroy the obstacle. Sometimes when they are stunned they believe they are stuck, or they get stunned while stuck on an object and the anti-stuck melee logic takes priority over everything else.
>defense mission is done>shuttle is stuck under the groundFUCKING
>>485100915Because just disabling the AI when stunned was too much of a job for swedes.
>>485099618>If it was for me I'd just buff the enemies until what you are fighting genuinely feels like Hell in D9making enemies fat bullet sponges is the shittiest way imaginable to create difficulty. See: bile spewers, behemoths
>>485101043oh, and if you catch a charger in an orbital EMS field and then throw a stun grenade at it the charger will get unstuck from the EMS field as soon as the stun grenades stun duration is over, because they are the same debuff and applying a second instance of a debuff resets the timer to the new instances duration.

Fully upgraded OPS is fucking tasty, I love it. You can use it for everything, armor, chaff clear, structures. Does it all, and you can just go ham and throw it on cooldown most of the time.
How do I stop being addicted to the supply pack, having unlimted stuns and stims while not having to give a shit about where the mouthbreather pubbies call down the resupply is just too goodI even caught myself bringing it while lasermaxxing

>>485070385You don't need guard dog for bot using eruptor. Run supply backpack instead. Enemy volume is too much in higher diff for HMG without guard dog. Guard dog (laser) only really help in bug

Listen Chuds, if you somehow manage to take vega bay and cut off the X-45 and wasat attacks and create a buffer again, then Joel is going to have to punish you. You need to chew the steak slower just like how Edmund McMillen said about Isaac and enjoy the curated game experience.

>>485113964called out? called out for what? for a made up scenario you invented? One anon posts a screencap of a huge group of raiders. Another anon replies with a webm of a similar scenario, using an HMG emplacement to clear them out in a 'haha big gun go brrr' moment, because it's fun. Then you come along with your superiority complex and start shit about how "umm actually you fucking retard you should have just used X because X is way better and also you're a shitter for playing on difficulty 4" even though you have absolutely no context or clue as to why they might have been on difficulty 4. While also claiming the HMG emplacement anon would go so far as to "group them up" as if that was even a fucking thing that could happen by a players own actions, apparently all in effort to try and show the HMG emplacement is actually totally OP and the best stratagem ever? And then when YOU get called out for appearing to not know raiders group themselves up, by your claim that the webm anon was the one to group the raiders up, you double down on your retarded faggotry.And to prove you're full of shit making up scenarios to big yourself up, I can prove that that webm wasn't made in response to that original screenshot, but was made 2 fucking days ago. Because it has nothing to do with this fantasy you've concocted but was simply coincidentally related to something being shared for the threads amusement.

>>485118556Why would I? With the commando I can have decent AT on 1 slot without needing a backpack or having to deal with charge-up and cooldown bullshit
>>485118049>>literally twice the firepower>>2 shots to down a dropshipHow many dropships can you shoot down with a single EAT drop? 2. How many dropships can you shoot down with a single comamndo drop? also 2.Last I checked 2 isn't double of 2.In fact, a single Commander drop has more total damage than a single EAT drop, with each commando rocket doing 450 damage compared to the EAT's 650, but with twice the number of rockets it comes out to 1800 total damage for the commando and only 1300 damage for the EATs. And that's not even factoring in the 150 explosive AoE damage each rocket, Commando and EAT, have, which puts the commando even higher.Then you need to consider the commando is not only more efficient with its damage, you get all of the shots in a single launcher meaning you never have to risk not being able to get to the second EAT tube.
>>485118775Why would I? With the expendable anti-tank I can have decent AT on 1 slot without needing a backpack or having to deal with charge-up and cooldown bullshit

>Can run with Commando and scavenge other support weapons off allies or PoIs like you can with EATs.Comfy and welcome addition to the arsenal.
whats the commando's cooldown? i thought it was going to be more than twice the cooldown of EAT to balance out it's convenience and better handling of certain breakpoints. but you guys are acting as if it's the same
>>485119073im quitting soon, you'll have my spot/
>no more commando>not in stores yetI MISS HER ALREADY
>>485119681Its like 30s more or something
>>485119681with all the CD reduction I have no idea what the base CD is, but after upgrades its about 95s to EATs 70s

>>485119774>>485119941i see, yeah thats a bit small of a difference for the benefits it gives you
>>485120015No one will ever touch EATs now because of it, its simply better. That being said EATs + Commando lets you obliterate a lot of armor without worrying about dying and losing your gear.
If i could i would just equip 4 eats. This is close enough
I am FORGOTTEN
>>485120410ן LOVE YOU RR-CHAN
>>485120410That 10% faster reload made it finally feel usable imo. Being able to down three dropships and kill everything before it lands is nice.

>>485120410if I play high tier bugs and there isn't already an autocannon man or nobody is bothering with any AT at all, I run RR with EATs for max emergency AT capacity. now it'll just be RR with Commando for the same thing but better with a less frequent, more densely packed call-in that fits the role perfectly and is more likely for somebody to take for themselves and use effectively in a pinch

>>485122845>I have a misunderstanding on how the game works and power trip my disbelief on others Hilarious
>>485122524bro teach me your ways
>>485122797The single biggest complaint about bring heavy AT to bot missions is that shooting down dropships with it doesn't always kill the cargo and instead creates an unassailable bunker out of the wreckage for them to shoot out of that you can't shoot into. It's been complained about since fucking release.
>>485122797Literally show me a dropship falling and killing its crew, and not just one random chaff. Why is this so hard for you to do, if its so easy to recreate? All I ask is for you to back up your own claim and you immediately jump to insults.
>>485123049>>485123117>Trying to double down on something you could quite easily test yourselfDestroying a drop ship drops it on the enemies below and will kill most of them. Im sorry this fact hurts your ego but maybe just play the game next time.

>>485122830>Commando>EAT>RRImagine
>>485103853>How do I stopYou don'tWith heavy med armor I find myself just running past large groups of enemies all the time, stimming and just carrying on like they don't exist to get to things like jammers.I always end up with like 30 stim uses per game because I can play so aggressive and fight past the flinch.
So is the dropship debate our "there are no helicopters in Terraria" meme, or what? I feel like I'm being gaslit hard right now, I've never seen a downed dropship kill its crew.
I require horribly inefficient and unsafe overcharge modes for my energy weapons
>>485123207And again, I've downed a million dropships across all my hours of play and yet that little kill counter sure doesnt go up. Why does getting asked to back up your own claim make you so upset?
>>485123229You can just google and youtube it and find plenty of people who have tested it and posted videos of them downing drop ships and seeing their kill counters increase when it blows up, as well as see the enemies die. It doesn't matter though, you're bias and trying to save face so nothing anything says will make you happy.
EAT, RR, and quasar should be buffed to 750 damage (with the damage dropoff bug fixed).Yes, this makes them a 1-shot on bile titans.
>>485123424I see it consistently wipe trash mobs it's carrying if you hit it while it's moving while medium mobs get stuck in the carry animation until something shoots them. If it's hovering and dropping units when you hit it though it seems to do nothing.
>>485123424The issue is that sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. Dropships do deal damage when they explode on the ground, but because Helldivers is janky people have different experiences. It is still worth it if you can take the shot because its far more likely to down all the chaff and walkers while making the larger units get stuck.
>>485103853you stop by running to all of the PoIs and grabbing supplies from there while going full guerilla mode
>>485123506https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j1-QGgt_X2QIm sorry that you are so insecure you need to try and save face on something so easily disprovable.
>>485108620It was fine when there were less entities, but then people cried about heavies, they started increasing smaller add spawns by 3 fold to compensate and thus every single new small one now needs it's own AI.
>>485123618EAT and Quasar no, Recoilless yes. Tht's the downside for being a quick disposable throw-away launcher or having infinite ammo. Recoilless needs something to make it a viable pick over the other two, especially now that the commando is here and shits on EATs
>>485123885At least we're not ratclick
>>485122278If you spammed the spot button you'd have seen the arc throwers even without a scope.
>>485123840>posting videos from 4 months ago>a gajillion patches and changes that change everything thanks to the game's shitty spaghetti code>even redditors are currently complaining dropships dont kill their crew>got off of playing bots for nearly a week, no dropships were killing their crewOk, anon. I don't see a little skull counter go up when the dropship blows up and neither do at least two other anons that you've somehow amalgamated into me as well, but ok.
>>485124259>Excuses>Excuses>Excuseshttps://www.youtube.com/shorts/gGW-mUsEk8sAs I said here >>485123508 nothing anyone says will make you stop trying to save face. But at least we can all laugh at you now.
>>485123885/gatcha/ board when, need to contain this brainrot
>>485120926Flamethrower and two red bile titan killers is usually enough since they fucked with the spawns.
>>485124341I hate to break it to you, but /vg/ iis the containment.
>>485123047set FoV to max, mash your gun into the door and ADS
>laser cannon and shield gen packFirst combo I liked since the first month, its been so long and it didn't disappoint.
>>485123424it's inconsistent, sometimes it'll take out the chaff and sometimes it won't. It will usually never kill anything larger like a berserker, hulk or tank as far as I know. Most people don't destroy them so you never really notice it, and when they do the larger units survive so you end up thinking "alright that did literally nothing"
>>485124709be honest, did you drop a sos beacon to get that 3 stack of SC?
>>485123424Terraria has helicopters?
>>485124787Is there no way for someone to look in an editor to see what EXACTLY happens when a dropship crashes damage wise? Does the falling dropship carcass objectively pass any numerical damage onwards to a medium to heavy unit?
>>485123424https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hYYD3xnspa0Here is some definitive proof so we can end this dumb argument caused by one retard once and for all. Killing drop ships kills most of whats below it. Sometimes it will show you the kill count (0.53) sometimes it wont (1.33).
>>485124910It's a reference to a couple guys gaslighting some lonely autist into thinking they're playing Terraria with Apaches and machine guns while he gets progressively more upset. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mdn1s8FxrUg
>>485122278Going by the last good advice I've heard on that situation, quickly type "look what you did :[" and TK them.
observe my sick commando rocket shot https://files.catbox.moe/68qel7.mp4
as it stands, shooting down dropships is more of a flex or roleplay thing to do, and will remain so until they make the dropship spawn a proper explosion underneath on wreck impact and will fix the terrain soaking up the damageit's a diceroll on whether it damages the troops, but the dice has sixteen sides and 1-15 is no damage at allthe >it creates an unpenetrable memebunker for teh devs argument is greatly overstated as well, they mostly just walk outthe SAM site impacts wipe the payload 100% of the time btw
>>485125103Cool, but you can just shoot the sides of the fab without your fancy hollywood bullet curving.
>>485125103anon...the commando kills fabs from any angle on any surface...good job
>>485125139>as it stands, shooting down dropships is more of a flex>shows a video of a dropship wiping out 8 enemies in one rocket
If the Commano destroys fabricators like it does, imagine how it's going to do against shrieker nests and spore spewers.
>>485125315>>485125364ah good grief and alas
>>485125471yeah, and that happens only ever so oftenI went through all the recordings in my trash bin and out of all the dropships I shot down like 8 or 9, that was the only one that resulted in the kill counter popping up
>>485125695>only one that resulted in the kill counter popping upKill counter being bugged =/= no kills being made
>>485125749now that's just copeshooting down a dropships has consistently credited me the kills properly granted they happenedit just rarely ever kills payloads heavier than the ~150 hp grunts
>>485124874no but I fucking should have, damn it
>>485125957Watch >>485125053
Anyone notice that the "hellbong armed, clear the area!" soundbite isn't working anymore?
>split between wasat and vega bay>we loose both because dumb liberation system and bug diversoh I'm laughin
>>485126236>hellbong>queso cannon>eagle poppersYeah... I'm thinking its time to go visit the ol' Super Taco Bell.... Democracy Officer watchu want with your fries?
>>485126028I'm not watching the entire thing, but it's diff 1, and two of the drops shot down were nothing but the basic bitch 150 hp troops - which the dropship wreckage exploding will wipe, as I've saidmost of drops on higher difficulties will be hulks, devs, berserkers and tanks - the full light goon drops are relatively rare, and you won't wipe them with a dropship shotdown most of the time
>>485125053>difficulty 1 where the dropship cargo is 100% raidersit was never the argument that killing dropships didn't kill ANY of its cargo, it was that it never killed ALL of its cargo. It's always been acknowledged RAIDERS die in dropship crashes. The problem is anything bigger than a raider doesn't die.
>>485126378>it was never the argument that killing dropships didn't kill ANY of its cargoYes it was. Nice attempt at backtracking.
>>485109881please keep making posts like this so that each person here gets slightly more disgusted by the idea of running the GP with every post you make. The lobbies must heal.
>>485126371He's going to move the goalposts and pretend that he meant that it only killed troopers the whole time, when troopers are basically a non-issue on D7+.
>>485126371>and two of the drops shot downfirst two*
>>485126371>Im not educating myself I just want to live in my own bubbleYou do you anon. There is plenty of proof that dropships damage everything and can potentially kill anything. Your ignorance is no one elses issue.
>tfw you're the 67
>If you kill a dropship im going to KICK you>If you DONT kill a dropship im going to KICK YOUThis is pathetic
>>485126354>That had better be stims in that bong, soldier!
>>485126734This is the optimum way to handle samples, people should combine their containers and run them to the extract like a football the whole time.
I still have 1 more misson left on X-45, join if you want to use the Commandosteam://joinlobby/553850/109775242657978685/76561198073214698
>>485126976>Stimbong for AoE stimmingFund it.
I've had some goofy shit happen to me but the camera disconnecting from the player character is something new
>>485127190Something like this?
>>4851271522/4join the fahking lobby
>>485127474heh
>>4851271523/41 more slot to play the Commando, be quick niggas
>>485119946You missed it It was coolSeethe
Is there a new warbond coming? Dont they usually release the details a week before?
>>485127474Somebody post that Snoop Dogg game clip of "Imma be blunt with you" lol. Same vibes.
>>485127351Dropping down from orbit in a bullet shaped metal box may cause mild brain damage
new t.>>485127970
>>485120663That seems to be like the most useful of the new upgradesToo bad I haven't even gotten all of the old ones
>>485124709>set FoV to max,That seems more time consuming than just wanting for another player
>>485127351yeah that happens to me a lot, i sent it to the devssomething to do with getting ragdolled while you're are transitioning to first person
>>4851179762/4
>>485127146as long as the guy with the samples instantly dives into the pelican when it arrives, yes
>>485087543Probably because stray bullets are going past other bot patrols you can't see then they get aggroed and immediately know where you are. It's worse when you have shitters who love to start fights by flinging stratas at bases then run away because you'll end up getting shot from 3 sides.
>>485112721The dumbfuck swedes apparently have realistic simulated hydraulics on the mechs and even shit like the gas cans on the back have their own health and count as as a body part.The selective milsim autism is actually severely hurting the game down to its base code.
>>485131945simulated hydraulics? What?
>>485132115I heard it from an anon on a different thread but apparently, yes, the mechs have simulated hydraulics and the mech has many tens of small pieces counted as a body part with its own HP.
>>485132115>>485132406i dunno about simulated hydraulics but they have way too fucking many hitzones at least
>>485132613>Windshieldhuh?
>>485132798they're all cosmetic parts designed to just show damage on the mech (non-existant HP, 0% transfer to main HP), except i've never seen any parts on a mech actually break
>>485132956The gas cans apparently break. Anyways i didn't even know mechs had a windshield
>get tired of running anti armor against bugs>pick either flamethrower or lmgs>spend 90% of the mission being chased by bile titans while my teams sit there fisting their own asses
>>485132613I hope we getting beefier mechs in the future the ones we have now seem like they're made for like suppressing a dissenting population or killing the lil bugs the farms were use to before galactic war 2 kicled off. 3 armor is nothing
>>485132406>simulated hydraulicsit's a meme you dip
Are any of the mechs worth paying 25k reqs for?
>>485132406this nigga actually fucking fell for that shitno wonder you people are so retarded
