>Into the Unjust 4.1.0 update is up>they fixed everythingPlease, PLEASE come back.
Even the perfs?
They added DLSS?
they just made the game extra braindead easy compared to before (it was already easy), truly a reddit game holy shit
>>723955073That's how I know it's now at proper difficulty level, as a mid 30s dad with a family to take care of and a job, who doesn't have the time to sweat at video games anymore. Thank you.
>>723954609No
>>723954342they killed the game with too many warbondsgetting back into the game feels like a pain because you're just up against like 80 warbands, each of which takes like 30-40 games to unlockI don't have the time for that shit
>>723956492Agreed. The cosmetics arent a big deal but locking weaponry and stratgems behind a paywall is fucking gay, and you also have to grind that shit out.
They sorted the dog shit optimisation?
>>723954342Didn't fix weapon customization
>>723956931supposedly but i would still take those claims with a grain of salt
I thought you were memeing but they really have just nerfed all the enemies and buffed the guns even more.
>>723954342it's a step forward... have to wait and see if they learned their lesson (impossible) or fuck it up again
>>723955073You already had half a year of muh limp-dicked """grunt fantasy""" faggotry and it almost killed the game, lmao
>>723954980dlss won't help in a CPU bottlenecked game
>>723957995Yes it will. Now get to work on it you swedish fuck.
ARE WE BACK PLEASE TELL ME WHAT TO THINK OF THIS PATCH SO I CAN PARROT IT IN OTHER THREADS AAAAAAAAAAI hope the epoch actually feels good to use now.
>>723958103>dlss>help with CPUUnless you're playing with a relic like RTX 4080, dlss won't do jack shit for you.
>>723958103No it won't.
>>723958169>WHAT TO THINK OF THIS PATCH SO I CAN PARROT IT IN OTHER THREADSYou will think about trannies, and you will parrot "woke goyslop" in threads. You're welcome.
>>723958219Yes it will.>>723958214Has nothing to do with the CPU. Also >4080 >relic top lmao
>>723954342>>they fixed everythingOh wow finally did they actu-oh, nevermind
I'm a lalafell helldiver.
>>723958461No it won't.
>>723954342They "fix everything" every 6 months or so then fuck it all up again with the very next patchI'm tired of the Arrowhead cycle I am not reporting back for duty
I wasn't even hoping for a weapon balance update. Last time I played it was freezing every 10 seconds.
>>723954342They made it isometric and cut the map size in half so there's less pointless travel downtime?
>>723958565Yes it will.
>>723958169It's an okay patch.
>>723959995It won't.
>>723958461After the rtx 5000 series dropped, only poor people useantiquated gpu:s
>>723961591Yes it will.>>723961642Only literal retards will buy a 5000 series if they own a high end 4000 series.
>>723961838No it won't
>>723961871Yes it will.
>>723954342>134gbnah
>>723962041No it wont
>>723962083>Tfw two different friend groups trying to get me to reinstall>Tfw I'd have to delete two whole Yakuza games to make roomItchybum Kasuga doesn't deserve the purge from my HDD yet.
>>723962083>they still havent reduced install size because of HDD cuckswhat the fuck are they doing
>>723962119Yes it will.
>>723954342>All guns got 5-10 more damage>It literally doesn't change anything at all, since damage threshholds remained the sameThis took them over two months?
>>723955302I know this is bait but holy shit anon thanks for getting my blood boiled.
>>723957914>muh grunt fantasyyou stupid nigger, even before the update you could just blow through hordes of heavy enemies with most support weapons, the game was way too easy and now it's easier, you fucking power fantasy obsessed niggers leave every game you play after a month anyways I don't get why you niggers are so loud.I don't want the game to be assraping hard like IWBTB or someshit but it is way too easy even at difficulty 10.
>>723962229The fuck does that hdd excuse even do? I refuse to believe something retarded like that actually effects anything and isn't just placebo. Sounds like absolute cope.
>>723962305No it won't
>>723962541It unironically works though. Try running Darktide off of a mechanical drive and you will see the difference.
>>723956492this is 100% the reason i have zero interest in coming back. the thought of having to grind a gorillion battle passes for non-cosmetic shit completely ruins my enthusiasm. i had my fun but unless they change their financial model, it's a no go. game is paid too which is even sadder.
>>723954342tl;dr for everyone>buffed some weapon, but most don't hit any new breakpoints>nerfed SMGs and pistols with extreme damage falloff>buffed non-chaff enemies so most of the weapon buffs become irrelevant >giganerfed some heavies, making them pitiful>a few things got much needed improvements>filesize reduced by 10GB (134GB now)>+20 FPS, but only when nothing at all is happening
I always see the fix everything updates but people barely mention the unfix everything updates inbetween, what gives?
>>723956492Yup this did it for me too, should have been cosmetic only and the strategies/weapons should all just be gated behind orders. Once the community beats it everyone gets it. Instead of keeping me engaged I just keep the game uninstalled because I know it's more and more of a grind as time goes on to "catch up".
>>723962439Nah game was not bad because it was hard but because everything was nerfed so you needed to rely on call ins to do anything. Everyone agreed since the game was dying up until now. Sorry you are a contrarian.
>>723955073Can't wait for Starship Troopers to release so we can have a real game
You mean they pushed out a patch that was supposed to fix everything. Did they ACTUALLY fix everything?>>723955073I thought this was a performance patch, what do you mean they made the game easier?
>>723962893Yeah but it's very retarded to install demanding games on a HDD.Like nigga every MOBO has a NVME slot just buy a cheap 512gb SSD to play heavier games on it and keep using your HDD for less demanding stuff.
>>723956492I have all the warbonds and still have zero desire to play. 90% of the stuff they added is just garbage
>>723957914not talking about you specifically but it's strange that so many people conflate difficulty with being a weak powerless grunt. hd2 can be difficult as fuck but at the same time, give players incredibly powerful tools. it just means that any small mistake will get punished heavily. instant death, low respawns. shit like that. instead, when i was still playing, they just chose to neuter player weapons again and again and it felt bad overall.
>>723963303theres performance fixes in this patch but theres also a fuck ton of balance changes that pretty much buffs everything and nerfs (in a dumb way) a bunch of enemies, see it for yourselfhttps://store.steampowered.com/news/app/553850/view/538868565209514366
>>723958521your kind will be purged
>>723963421>Fleshmob>Targeting the faces deals extra damage to its main health, effectively creating weak spotsI fucking KNEW they heads weren't a weak point before! All those retards saying "just aim for the heads bro" just got BTFO
>>723963421>>723963629I don't know why my post quoted yours but I didn't mean to, sorry.
>>723963629People have known this since Fleshmobs were released though.
>>723963345It probably made more sense back when they started working on it. Remember they are using the same game engine as the first game.
>>723963227Finally, thanks for the summary
>>723963774To this say I still see Illuminate "guides" that suggest shooting at the heads.
>>723954342How many "THEY FIXED EVERYTHING WE ARE SO BACK" patches has this game had now lmao
>>723956492>>723963120you don't have to get all the battle passes, what are you talking about. just play the fucking game and you'll slowly get them.
>>723958518I remember that piece of shit when we played TERAHad to do completely reinstall windows to clean that shit
>>723958273Same shit different asshole
THEY FIXED EVERYTHING>runs at 24fps>crashes every 20 minutes>destroys your CPU
>>723963629They were technically an explosive weak point because each head hit would act as another zone hit by the explosion, multiplying the damage of the hit. The problem was that with 8 heads pretty much any explosion should kill them in 1-2 hits, so most of the heads were made explosion immune to increase the TTK.
>>723964076>destroy your CPUqrd?
>>723954342This game file size is way fucking huge for what it offers
>>723964231It's an rts with heavy physics simulation that just happens to play like a third person shooter, so the playerbase is all codfags instead of strategy nerds, by hardware specs.
>>723964076I got a mid end pc (RX 7600 and Ryzen 5 5600) and can run at 50-80fps on high settings.
>>723964345They mentionned in their dev blog that they tripled the filesize for the PC version to make sure the game loads okay on the two players with a slow HDD.
I stopped playing in the middle of the Gloom shit. I honestly don't want to grind for super credits forever for just one warbond. Most of the weapons weren't good and fighting bugs was just annoying.Patchnotes look okay but I'm not sold on going back just yet. Too many small things annoy me
>>723964530>grind for super creditsHow do people do that holy shit. Tried for almost an hour after watching a guide and made less than 150. That's $1.5 an hour lmao
>>723964231Game is VERY CPU intensive due to Swedish code. Also, it (or GameGuard, dunno which) can also lock up your PC.With these two combined, among other things, the game *could* cause damage to your PC if you aren't careful. Also it eats through SSDs like crazy.
>>723963263>game was dyingthe game lost players because of terrible perfomance not balance, content wise into the unjust was inredibly well received retard. Calling someone names doesn't make it correct.
I'm playing forever kino nowdays. If they manage to fix the AI and make dynamic spawns, I'm never coming back.
>>723963227What the fuck do these guys have against SMGs and pistols, seriously?
>>723964685>How do people do that holy shit.Overexaggerating, paying but not admitting it, or cheating them in.I've tried the "hardcore quick grinding strats" that people have put out before, and it takes way longer than what they claimed (unless you get really fucking lucky).
>>723964685You either need to have a friend with you for low level planets or buy a specific warbond and just teleport into bunkers.
>>723964864It's basically>increase optimal DPS by 20%>doubled damage falloff
>>723954342>they fixed everythingChargers are still silent stealth assassins who don't make any noise when 10 of them spawn behind you and start making Initial D style hairpin turns to chase you down. That and the fucked up steering on drop in are the only 2 real problems I have. I don't care that a bunch of primaries I don't use got buffed. Though it was funny to read that glowing enemy eyes used to be a particle effect instead of a shader.
>>723955302My normal group contains 2 dad gamers with kids and limited time, and we haven't failed a D10 in longer than I can remember. Most of our deaths are from funny team kills. Who are these adult men playing video games who struggle?
>solo silo changesOk now that enemies wont attack it i dont have to worry about a single voteless somehow one shotting it.
>>723954342>Please, PLEASE come back.Id rather not, its fun for 10 hours or so, but then the grind sets in and it takes forever to unlock anything
>>723966010The real problem is that after a while you keep getting resources and there's nothing meaningful to upgrade. Actually useful weapon mods that cost super samples would be nice.
They should remove that chink anti-cheat ASAP. Why the fuck should you care with anti-cheat in a fucking PvE game? It also fucks up game performance/can lead to crashes/not booting up the game lol it's not worth it.
>>723967694Can't have people cheating in the paid currency.
>>723968791who the fuck pays for supercredits? they're annoying to get but still just play the game man.
>>723965371He's shitposting and mimicking Reddit / Steam community comments
>>723968791But it doesn't stop that at all, if you don't want to install arrows or dig through the archives for a current SC spawn cheat, join randoms on D1 desert planets until you encounter a chink that replaces your supply drops with SC.
>>723969181I understand that. I was commenting towards those types of people in general. No adult male who actually plays games should have trouble with HD2.
>>723968973I pay for them because I have a job and would rather not grind D1 missions for an hour. That said, I'm not buying their jewbux for warbonds that have 1 pkay weapon. Also, fuck the 250 medal cap. It should be 500 so I don't have to buy warbond then play a dozen missions to buy everything in it.
>>723954342Did they fix the performance so it doesnt drop to 40-50 fps constantly? If not then Im waiting for that.
>>723964854is that why the big linchpin addition of the burrower strain was turned off a week into the update? because it was so incredibly well received?
>smgs and pistols got rapedcool thanks, an already shitty option just got shittier for no reason
>>723964975>>723964685did you also mod in fuckhuge flags that you can see from far away that point to where super credits are? because that is very very helpful
>>723972252What kind of potato PC are you running that gets framedrops?
>>723973230Ryzen 7 5800X, with 4070ti S. The game runs noticably worse for me than it did at launch and this is the only game Ive run into that runs like shit where turning the settings down to literally being undecipherable has no effect at all.
>>723973471I genuinely can't remember the last framedrop I've had outside of playing with someone with a terrible connection. What kind of hard drive do you have?
>>723973726SSD. I have no idea why it does this, in cities its consistently at 50~ and drops to the 40s at times when theres a lot of stuff happening.
still updating, but I hope the torcher isn't busted with all the fire nerfs. they should've just nerfed the coyote directly if that was their concern
Turns out people mod in cheat arrows that literally show you a huge ass blue arrow where SC are in order to farm them. Pretty useful
>99% of armor still useless cause they only made 2 good set passives and no transmog system
>>723976926What's the best armor to get, new player here
>>723976165you still have to spam lvl 1 missions and drive up to them because the render range for the arrow is awful, tedious as fuck
>>723976993depends on what you're vsing but siege ready is probably the most popular passive overall
>>723976993Fortified if you're fighting automatonsSiege Ready is always good since it makes your primary better.Extra Padding is generally good all the time.Med-Kit is also useful most of the time.Inflammable if you're fighting against the Incineration Corps or if you're fighting on Hellmire.
>>723977074So the lod change in the config files does nothing?
>>723977074>increase lod>use sniper rifles/4x scope to get arrows to render further away
>>723976993engineering kit is very useful, extra grenades is always helpful to take out bases and reduced recoil is useful
>extraction countdown>climb on top of bot tank and aim down with a torcher to kill it>feel badass>exploding tank sends me flying across the entire map>somehow survive, maybe because of heavy armor
>>723967694gameguard really fucks with performance, it needs to go. i've had a lot of complete PC lockups that i suspect caused 3 out of 4 of my brand new RAM cards to shit the bed.
>>723976926There are more useful passives than there are useless ones you whiny fag.
>>723954342>didn't reduce the file size by removing all the duplicate/outdated shitstill not reinstalling
>>723981874Blame that on people still using HDDs. People would piss and shit if they were expected to modernize to play a modern game.
>>723981948>Blame that on people still using HDDsyou're an idiot
>>723982207Its literally the reason, educate yourself. Its why the console version of the game is literally half the size, modern consoles all have SSDs.
ha...hahah... we are so back...
>>723982260>>723981948I wonder if people would use SSDs more if it wasn't that the game is literally 1/10th+ the space of a standard SSD
>>723983562Sure, they should be the standard but they are just too small for their cost. I just move games back and forth from SSD to HDD when I want to play them. So I put games Im actively playing on the SSD, and then just move them to the HDD when Im not.If you didnt know this was a thing btw right click on a game in steam, properties, navigate to installed files, move instal folder, and you can just shift the game whenever you want to play it, you dont NEED a really big SSD, just move the game when you need it.
>>723955073>omg tons of weapons are shit, you need to buff them>*buffs the shit weapons*>You're making the game easier!!!!I know it's autism that causes you to be like that, but I'm so tired of seeing this shit time and time again.
>>723984571I feel like the people that want primaries to be stronger are literally playing the game wrong and are making the game worse. If you cant go in with a pistol and win you are bad at games.
>>723954342>Armor and health still worthless>Enemy stats knocked down like that was what was wrong with them (fleshmobs still phase through walls while hitting you, flyingseers still avoid your crosshair like two opposite ends of magnets)>Railgun still neutered since first balance patch>Handful of damage and other bullshit that wont matter for neglected weapons>Dragon Roach still in the game>Leviathans still in the game but now they have BEAMSYou can skip this one, shit's still fucked.
I just want to modify my heat weapons to do weird shit like give the Sickle burning bullets at the cost of fire limitor increase damage at the cost of fire limitor increase fire rate at the cost of fire limitmy heatsinks overheat too slowly
