Grim editionPrevious>>491463196>WHAT IS HELLDIVERS 2?HELLDIVERS 2 is a 2024 co-op, squad-based, PvE 3rd person shooter for PC and PS5 where players fight against hordes of alien insects and robots to Spread Democracy. Players wage war on a number of contested planets, each with a different environment, completing as many objectives as possible within a procedurally generated area while constrained by a time limit. With enough successful operations a planet can be completely liberated, and the player base must cooperate to try to liberate the entire galaxy by focusing and combining their efforts as much as possible. 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 for PC, PS3/4 and PS Vita, the original HELLDIVERS is the origin of the setting and basic gameplay formula of HELLDIVERS 2. The major difference is that HELLDIVERS is a top-down shooter, its mechanics being based primarily on Arrowhead's previous game Magicka.https://store.steampowered.com/app/394510/HELLDIVERS_Dive_Harder_Edition/https://www.playstation.com/en-us/games/helldivers/>INFORMATION RESOURCEShttps://helldivers.wiki.gg/wiki/Helldivers_Wikihttps://helldiverstrainingmanual.com/https://helldiverscompanion.com/https://helldivers.io/https://invadersfromplanet.space/helldivers-2/>NEWSAugust 6: Escalation of Freedom Update https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/553850/view/4339865428695343823August 13: A message from the devs https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/553850/view/4339866697736692015August 20: 1.001.004 Patch https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/553850/view/6992487606095723693August 21: 1.001.005 Hotfix https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/553850/view/4252047773008305837>CURRENT WARBONDAugust 8: Freedom's Flame https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LXngA0CO33c

>>491598526is the fish even cooked??
>>491599519The first spess marheen game was pretty okay
So why do you think the game is dying?
>>491600251Technical issues, bad new content, no fixes, asshole devs, nerf fetish
>>491599519Multiplayer modes on Space Marine 1 were GOAT. Exterminatus was a direct influence over Helldivers and it shows. If they get it right, I guarantee it will swallow this game's entire community overnight (there's a good chance they don't get it right, ofc. And also people are definitely gonna rage when they see the mtx.)Also Boltgun was rad as fuck, you can't deny it. But yeah 95% of 40K games usually suck.
>>491599914no, raw fishes getting salted to prevent from rotting and leave to be fermented for a few months
>>491600251Terrible balancing decisions, very little new content and devs that are so up their own ass they ignore the players. That's why all my normie friends quit.
>>491597942Did steam go down for anyone else?
Ragdollers 2Headshotters 2Crashdivers 2
>>491600251Normies want to play the max difficulty and always win. Swedes want them to lower the difficulty. This conflict of interest is problematic for longevity.
>>491601309It's not that max difficulty is even hard, it's just that it requires you to conform to an absolutely dogshit un-fun meta loadout in order to win.The difficulty should come from the fact it overwhelms you with enemies, not because your weapons are literally incapable of killing half those enemies.
>>491600251They started to lose my friends after they altered how the enemy spawns worked initially some months ago. I remember people were complaining that the bile titans would spawn too often so they made them spawn less but the smaller enemies spawn more often. I remember the mission that did it, we were just doing a basic kill all automatons mission and we had like hundreds of these already pre-patch no problem but the first time we did it post-patch on the same difficulty we had 30 devastators and hulks spawned at the same time and it was just a complete and utter clusterfuck. It was just unfun.
>>491601682lol, no it doesn't, most the thread lobbies have a multiple meme stratagem picks and we still always win. That r*ddit/discord repost that got posted here not long ago is perfect proof, normies crying they dont get a free hellbomb for the fortress detector tower, while dev response was 'you're supposed to have learned how to kill those on your own by the time you're attempting D10', and the normies lost their minds.
>>491602102Holy shit. That Hellbomb took off.
>>491601309Explain why helldivers 2 is the only game with that problem despite not being that difficult of a game
Can the devs actually turn this around and revive interest in the game?
No lobby ?
>>491602397Could they? Yeah. Will they? Likely no. They seem to have a vision for the game and don't want to deviate too far from it. The problem is, their vision is dogshit for 99% of people kek. Which is fine, not every game has to be for everyone but clearly the devs do want it to be a popular game and not a niche game that only a few thousand people enjoy.
>>491602598Nevermind steam is dead
>>491602359Other devs want to push the game to its breakpoints until the players have a suitable challenge: Helldivers simply does it by making your arsenal overall less effective to deal with the obstacles it gives you.>>491602397Piles is back so there is still hope. Frankly I don't see this game ever returning to its peak player count but then again its better this way. Less shitters running around, less angsty redditors bitching about pedantic shit, thinning the herd, so to speak.
>>491602359every game has that problem. Its why skill-based-matchmaking was invented. Normies crying the game is too hard because XxXNoLife420XxX is owning them in cawadoody, so the devs create a solution that segregates good players from bad players, increasing satisfaction for the normies by keeping them safe from the big scary pros. Helldiver's difficulty is 100% optional, but normies are too stupid to just turn down the difficulty so they can play the match that is intended for their skill level. The reason HD2 has that problem is because the solution requires players to set their own challenge, and normies will NEVER do this accurately to their skill level. Read up on Dunning-Kruger. -t Former Dota player
>>491600251I'd say it's the fucked up patrol spawns.Not only are you now facing absurd medium spam that only a select few weapons and strats can handle, but also enemies spawning very close to you in all directions at all times so you can't stop for more than 10 seconds or several patrols will be on your ass.
The difficulties in HD2 just don't scale well as someone that has played with many normies. Difficulty 1-6 feel like you're playing baby's first third person shooter. It's just too easy to be fun for normies. Then difficulty 7 makes the game substantially more difficult and 8+ are just impossible for normies. That just doesn't feel good.
>>491600482the mtx are my worst fear, if its only cosmetic idgaf but if good weapons are hidden behind mtx like dark tide then im going to seethe
>>491600567only raw fish that is appropriate to eat is sushi
New stratagem is out!
>>491603498Empty version, show me what you got.
>>491601212sneeddivers 2seethedivers 2TADdivers 2 (Total Swede Death)
>>491603498Frankly, I find the idea of bugs and bots having feelings that can be hurt offensive.
>>491603351It will be mostly cosmetic, but to any actual Warhammer fan, you have to know cosmetic is way more important than it is in most things. Do you want to be stuck playing as a vanilla generic Ultrasmurf? Better hand over 15 bux for the option to paint your armour red, goyim.>>491603179Exactly, what's the point in having 10 difficulty modes when everything below 6 is so easy you could literally beat it if you were in a coma, then it goes straight from relatively challenging to ultra nightmare within two steps.
>>491603634but is it

>>491605068its so fucking over
>Bots either instakill you or ragdoll you to deathWhat is the point in armour again?
>>491605068is it showing the anti-cheat briefly then closing?. if so start closing any kind of apps that interact with the game in someway and try again.the anti-cheat can go full retard and throw false positives overs dumb shit
Either they tried to release a patch and fucked something up or they completely forgot to pay for the servers.I wouldn't put it past them that its the second.

>>491607892it's what pilestedt is currently doing to alexus
the selection of playable planets just keeps getting more cancerous, it's astonishing
>>491608673Did they ever think to have less cancerous planets? Why can't there just be a planet that you go on that has no bullshit. No fog, no earthquakes, no gas vent things. Just some flora and fauna. Just have an amazing landscape that people want to fight for.
>oh nice a grass planet with meadows and no mountains to obscure my sight-range>it's full of fogcoolniceexcellent
I want an inhospitable planet with every modifier, every environmental hazard, everything. Meteor strikes, ion storms, volcanic eruptions, fire tornadoes, dust storms. Crank the whole fucking thing to 11 and watch the chaos unfold

>>491612773Yup. Say hello to extreme nerfs for precision strike and walking barrage. Also no more fabricator destruction for your commando, might even remove the laser guidance, it's a bit too reliable.

Bros, why does almost every primary suck dick in anything above D6.The game spams so many bullet sponge enemies on D10 that I honestly start to think taking eruptor + a chaff clear secondary is the way to go now.Eruptor covers bughole/fabs and spongy enemies so you don't need grenade pistol.

Devs don't play the game.And if they do, they're playing cheat enabled zero cooldown strats.
hello anyone running bugs?
>>491617357I was playing with some a few days ago, it seems to be related to the ship upgrade modules. He didn't know what I was talking about when I said "oh right, I can't speak to the engineer anymore". Then later he bought another ship upgrade, and suddenly "wait, why can't I talk to the chick anymore?". I can 100% they made a fucky wucky in one of the module's codes to prohibit her talking, and can't pinpoint that THATS the reason because they never/can't test on a ship missing the upgrade.I feel like it might even be because they were trying to fix how the engineer in the pit always had an icon to speak with, because she was a direct copy of the other NPC. In stopping that, they stopped the one that ACTUALLY should speak too.
>>491618402That's just a lie, the devs can beat d5!
>>491600251I'd site a lack of content in the form of unlocks (both modules and strats), missions, and worlds as the first problems.The second is what I see happen in DnD too often; the DM thinking it's them versus the players.It should be the DM reacting to how the players are engaging with the world to empower and/or encourage the players further. As Players in Helldivers 2 found ways to play Arrowhead has punished the players, with some of those retards PUBLICLY mocking their players(customers), by either removing what they where doing or just making it harder without creating enough/or enjoyable avenues.This has created a negative loop where there is almost no positive media about Helldivers outside of word of mouth. The Player Base has been extremely lenient with Arrowhead giving them the benefit of the doubt for so long an been burned to much.They given themselves a timer and people are now just sitting back and waiting, they need to try so hard to claw the start of the public's trust back.. 49 more days gamers.
>>491614774>nice ship module you just bought>be a shame if...>we offset its benefits in almost every mission

>Finally finish off the botdrop/patrol aggro slog>Aggroed patrol spawns in front of you and immediately causes a botdrop
>>491602967>every game has that problem. Its why skill-based-matchmaking was invented. Normies crying the game is too hard because XxXNoLife420XxX is owning them in cawadoody, so the devs create a solution that segregates good players from bad players, increasing satisfaction for the normies by keeping them safe from the big scary pros. why does every FPS player have this brainlet take?
>>491619817Remember -1 stratagem slot and stratagem scramble? I should've known back then that AH made this game fun on accident.
>>491619340You are telling me that the 'instant call in' doesn't work? Does it atleast reduce the overall time, like instead of the 10 - 12 sexonds, is it 5 or 6?
AH really needs to add a bestiary to this game. I keep having to remind my gf what things are called>Ah fuck I those chainsaw things>yeah the berserkers, they're annoying
>>491620054strat scramble should have stayed but it triggering should've been via chance instead of guarantee'd "oops wrong strat"captcha: ACKK+
>>491620054I would quickplay into lobbies with -1 AA, have a half second of 'why did it not select... oh", then leave the planetI remember dropping on scrambler worlds, getting the wrong thing, checking the modifiers, throwing the airstrike it gave me at my feet and then leaving as well.I never played with those modifiers after 1 or 2 times, fuck man at one point they where present on every single 6+ mission on the entire bot front, i left to go fight bugs,
>>491620054>>491620451strat scramble should have stayed but it should have been the incredibly obvious effect that everyone expects that randomizes all stratagem codes for the mission instead of randomizing what fucking stratagem you getseriously don't understand what the train of thought was behind that decision
>>491620405Put a name on so I can filter you
>>491620073no it does lower it, i believe it shaves off 3 seconds
>>491620615>seriously don't understand what the train of thought was behind that decisionwon't it be super funny if we included this? haha
>>491620035They just want to pub stomp. Which I understand, but that makes casual players not want to play and that hurts the game developers too since the game isn't as popular.I remember the giant shit fit cod players had when they introduced sbmm. Its a great solution, but loudest and biggest fps nerds screamed and cried that they being matched with other giant fps nerds.
>>491620620There's a website that require usernames you can go back to. You know which one.
>>491620615>seriously don't understand what the train of thought was behind that decisionmuch like how Helmets where going to have passives and things like night vision and thermal sights but where shelved for release i can only think they had plans for modifiers but just slapped those in because they where fast.

2 things, firstly they responded saying there are no plans to give the game keyboard and mouse supportAre they under the impression the game can't already be played this way?Second, piles replying to say consumables are a good idea is so fucking cancerousWhat kind of retard would prefer consumables over a permanent upgrade?

every new enemy they add is more annoying and unfun than the next, it's no coincidence the game was at its peak when the biggest threats were chargers, stalkers and hulks
>>491622927nta but super beggars sit in D6 and constantly harass their lobby to find supers for them in every mission and are generally too stupid to host their own game. They used to inhabit D7 till AH lowered the floor for supers to D6.
>>491623619What's wrong with spending useless req slips and samples for consumables? I'd pay 50k slips for a one-time 5% reload time decrease
>>491623898Steam has been back up for an hour now and HD2 is the only game that still acts like shit's fucked.How it's possible to make a game that is THIS unstable is beyond me.
>>491623619>firstly they responded saying there are no plans to give the game keyboard and mouse support>Are they under the impression the game can't already be played this way?probably meant for console and I can assume they don't want to dig through the swedish meatball code to add it in, which is funny because it's been a staple feature on the console versions of CoD and Fortnite.
>>491624008Ah, that sound reasonable, I will start doing it on d6 from now on.
>>491609635you are literally a fat cuck who spends more time here than with your wifegood thing jarome is spending time with her LMAO
Strategem scramble was hilarious to experience at least the once before it got removed. It took us halfway into the mission to realize why the hell we were detonating ourselves.
>Brings out cuck and interracial shit out of nowhere
>>491609579fucking based. no one wants to suffer anymore but suffering is an amazing experience in and of itself in the right contexts. add in cross faction fights.
>>491624739with all the incompetence at launch, I still remember thinking it was a bug and exited my first mission experiencing it
>>491596293>It is possible that the current mess is due to miscommunications during their vacation periodEven if we're incredibly generous and assume this is the case (lol, lmao even), they'll be on vacation again in another 2 months. That's why they threw out that 60 day time to fix the game cause after that they're gonna fuck off again regardless of the state of the game.

>>491624884>>491624650Thread quality really taking a nose dive during prime American hours
>>491620615>seriously don't understand what the train of thought was behind that decisionSwiggers seem to have some kind of fetish for teamkilling and/or getting killed for reasons beyond your control. See also airburst strike and cluster bombs always having that ONE bomblet that falls way outside the impact clearly trying to hit a diver and gunships trying to kamakaze you regardless of how you take them down. At this point I'm convinced that the bile titan head issue is intentional as well and they just aren't willing to admit it. "guys wouldn't it be so scary if our big boss enemy just sometimes didn't take damage from AT!"
>>491624026One time for that one missions where it'll make no difference at allThat's just a resource sink for the sake of having one
>>491625883Yanks are still asleep. This is all SEA nigger and >BRITOID cope hours.
I'm sorry. I logged on to claim the cheese armor.
>>491625786Especially when if it was rEaLIsTiC the imbalanced thrust would make it splat into the ground pretty much instantly.>>491626054My guy it's past 0900 on the west coast, the only americans still asleep are in Hawaii.

Sweeden should be nuked for not making a rocket up a bile titan throat not being a critical hit. Instead they make a brow ridge that retracts and becomes invulnerable the critical spot and add a bug where it never becomes vulnerable.
How do I cope with the fact that I literally can't play without Peak Physique armor? The AC and HMG feel like shit without it
>>491627105Because there's a slight chance that you become indian or a nig, and you don't want to do that
>>491626747sweden is full of muslimsif someone said that these devs posted haram then the problem would be taken care of ishallah
>>491626054amerimutt coping lol
>>491627105That's me except with the supply pack.
>>491626747this game is so unintuitivesurely the big bulbous green fleshy sack on the spewers is the weak spotactually no that's the strongest part, the armored head is the weak spotwell at least the exposed charger butt is a weak spot, they must want us to bullfight these thingsactually it resists 90% damage, you're better off shooting its armored head or breaking its armored legswell that's ok because our fire weapons will bypass the heavy armor and cook it inside its shell like a giant lobster. Afraid not, that was just a glitch, the shell negates fire too....I see, well when it comes to the bile titans I'll just wait until it attacks and then shoot a rocket into its mouthafraid not....
>>491627279uh, so how do you know your character isn't black under normal armors? They might be black too
>>491626358He had a good reason to accuse you dobeit
>>491627713>they're attempting to emulate Valve's structure but worse.All of a sudden it makes sense.>pic rel when you let a swigger cook
I have an idea for the game devsjust don'twhatever you are planning right now just don't
how viable would it be to just steal helldivers and mod it to fight dinosaurs instead, that would be more fun
>>491628321truly magical they can "cook" for so long and still give you something rawhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jfr1Fzq2kUg
>>491628578the code is already on gethub, compile it then transfer that machine language into another code using ai. With tweaks here and there im sure you can have plausible deniability if they ever decide they want to sue you.
>>491628082Sounds pretty tame compared to amerimutt's obsession with interracial porn thoughbeit, liking hentai were never considered weird. Mutt can't accept their fact themselves and their whole country is made up of mystery meats so they projects their degenerate tendencies onto others as a coping mechanism.
>>491627982A non-issue because they are draped in FREEDOM and DEMOCRACY
Am i a schizo or do jetpack bots not spawn on D10. Havent played much of D9 or lower so i wouldn't know if it's just difficulity based or if they don't spawn in general.
>>491600251All my friends got massively asshurt when the railgun was nerfed and bailed. They have since authored pages and pages of text complaining about a game they haven’t played since like April.The only thing that really chaps my ass these days are the extremely foggy planets and the bugs that disconnect you.
>>491629115Haven't seen any in ages since D10
>>491629115no anon you are not crazy their spawn rate has plummeted I was kinda shocked when i saw one again as compared to last patch where they were in every patrol
>>491629115i have an educated guess>they intend to replace the generic jetpack bots with the killsquads just like they replaced scout striders with doom striders>but the killsquads aren't introduced yet so instead of jetpack bots you get nothing >apart from those scripted jetpack bots on the light outposts with cages
>>491629234nigga will you shut the fuck up, I hear timmies talk about black guys more than the supposed house wives they make up in their head
>>491625583AMR is the light. Once you spend 10,000 hours mastering it you will be an unstoppable force. It’s been better than the AC on bots for months.
>>491629271>They have since authored pages and pages of text complaining about a game they haven’t played since like April.Why is this phenomenom so common? My friends quit Darktide because of the vet power sword nerf and they're doing the same shit
the new scout strider and barrager tank made me shit myself more than seeing hulks and factory striders
>>491627943Yeah they really didn’t do themselves any favors with how bugs visually communicate shit. Bots they basically nailed with the glowy bits being weak. At some point expectations should just be reality.
>>491629756Yes but am i forced to take the supply pack with it yes or no
>>491629993Doesn't help that the rocket tank is straight up bugged and doesn't die when you blow up it's engine like all the other tanks do
>>491629076I will now improve your game
>>491625338I've been saying this since the start with jetpack bots always slingshotting toward you when they die so they could allahu ackbar your dick
>>491630403and yet this is somehow not listed in the known-bugs list, I don't really know what the deal is with those swedes, I sometimes wish HD2 were an American game
>>491629632This seems most likely. My personal schizo theory is they introduced fire resist armor and out of their swedish spite removed 1 of the 2 enemies that can set you on fire.
>>491629115Now that you mentioned it, I haven't seen them in ages, obnoxious enemies but cool nonetheless
>>491620451my take is strat scramble should've just swapped the inputs around at the start so that every strat had the wrong input, but the same input for the whole mission
>31k players on a Saturday morning in the US.Holy dead game, Sweden.
>>491630510I rarely fight bots so I forgot about those. So what's the list at currently?>jet pack bots spontaneously flying toward you even after getting blasted back>gunships defying momentum to try to crash on you>air burst and cluster bomb bomblets flying way off course to head shot a diverI'm sure there's more
>>491620589>new to game, quickplay and throw mmg at my feet>team wipe clusterAfter I figured out I was the cause, I was so fucking embarrassed I hit alt-f4.

>Get one shot by pre firing rocket dev because they can see through wallsI think that's enough heckdudes for now
>>491632162Just the swedes at it again, yesterday had like 5 disconnects during drops and then the game would keep me on the map screen even after I joined a session and wouldn't load the hellpod equipment select menu. I've just about had it
Hello lobby ?
>>491633096fuck off frenchie
>>491631875The final straw for me was when I called down my AMRBut it gave me Eagle Air StrikeSo I called down my AMRBut it gave me Eagle Air StrikeSo I called down my AMRBut it gave me a Mortar SentrySo I called down in Eagle Air StrikeAnd it gave me Eagle Air StrikeThis happened 10 times back to back and in a fit I threw every single strat I had so everything else was on cooldown and it had to give me my fucking sniper rifleThey could have made the codes randomized each time or something different each missionsThey could have made it a buff to Strat Jammers; Far = Fine, Mid = scrambled, Close = JammedBut they made it a "haha xd greifing" shitpost and then fucking scrapped it anyway
>>491630262no. it has a decent amount of ammo and you're taking everything out with 1 or 2 shots unless you're dumping on a factory strider. but you can definitely get by with ground ammo
>>491625032Will you wear this when it releases??
>>491633454>very obvious bio-hazard chemical spill/clean-up suit>will probably be medic armour or worse servo-assisted
boobies?
>>491633454>slight altered bonesnapper armor reskin
>>491633454Like most of the outfits in this game, sans the fuck ugly medic gear, it depends on the biome. That would probably look fitting on the acid brap planet, since in the morning the colour scheme is sulfur sands yellow. Would look like dogshit on most of the other biomes.
>>491633681But what if they release the acid goo thrower/weapons at the same time? It would be Ƙ Į Ɲ Oʻ
guess it was fotmslop after all...
>>491633942Sorry anon too jaded by swedesI was tired of their snow nigger bullshit a good while before EoFWhen I first saw the Freedoms Flame Warbond I was so full of hope again, I watched it so many times.I don't expect Arrowhead to deliver on anything ever again
>>491633998fotmslop usually gets replaced by the next fotm, not just a period of games in general being bad afterwards
>>491633681i'd be okay with one medic armor set that didn't look like fucking toothpaste
>>491633942But that would mean we are conceding to dwarf chuds...
>>491633454If it gives you 6 stims, yeah probably. I like stims.
>>491629705um no
>>491634637That is the "datamined" effect yes.>>491634407Its over (real)
>>491634548The twitch drop halo armor is the only good looking medic armor.
>>491630473based good luck nigga
>>491633454Looks cool. I'd wear it.
>>491634407>jadedYou're being dramatic
Why is the blitzer so random with damage against hunters? Every other enemy else is pretty constant. But it's a roll of the dice whether a hunter can take 1, 2, or 3 full bolts. Or sometiems a split bolt between enemies will one shot them, usually not. I have noticed that if the hunter is airborne, it is generally 1 shot. But this group of retarded swedes can't possibly have implemented mechanics of being grounded vs shock damage.
>>491633771Boobas
>>491635291You have to dive I think, and always avoid shooting while walking backwards
If you didn't predict the gigaretarded fire nerf before the fire warbond, you are honestly retarded.You should have at least between 20+ possible preditions of any event at all times in order to keep up with vidya devs and life events in general.
>>491635453Oh of course. We have to trick the momentum of projectiles
>>491635028>These where only shots where i can see old fie from the new flammersIt fucking hurts anonwhy not just give stuff fire resist and not fuck it all up?>>491635248nahI played VT2 and got a shitshow of a game for it, heard VT1 was not different, it took them years to fix VT2Played Darktide thinking "surely you don't make the same game 3 times and still fuck it up". Hint it was still a fuck up, 2 years on and crafting is STILL not finished.Helldivers 2, wonderful game that I love so much, punched slapped and bruised by Swiggers.If I'm not mistaken these Swedes work in the same city if not the same streetI. Hate. Swedes
>>491635809Its retarded that it could kill a factory strider in like 5 seconds. It shouldn't do anything against a factory strider. Not unless its giving birth.
>>491633454This should have released with Meridia but lazy swiggers prefer to just leave shit in the game files
>>491636087It wouldn't be such a idiotic mechanic if weapons weren't spreadsheet-tweaked for enemy breakpoints and then never tested
All the bot planets that are available to play on right now are trash. What do guys think the least trash planet is right now? I think its Choohe, since at least most of the time you can see past 10 feet in front of you when there's no sandstorm.
>>491636693choohe > jungle > aesir moon or riot
>>491636693I'd rather play b*gs than fog shitholes
>>491636909I really hate tentacle r*pe though
>>491637540You can shoot and easily dodge tentacles, they're way less troublesome than heavy rockets now
Holy shit they need to speed up this gloom shit fast. >planets being covered with mysterious bug clouds>MO is to...... kill a lot of bugs like we've been doing for months...
>>491637879Chinks saved us a week with their chinkcheats and still they're doing filler MOs. If they just reuse the Meridia assets I'm going to laugh so hard
49 MORE DAYS
>>491637797Heavy rockets aren't really that hard in imo my opinion mo. With the armored striders, you just have to pay attention and take care of them in a timely manner. With the rocket tanks, the same thing just pay attention and take care of them. When I hear that rocket tank sound, I run over and take it out quickly so my team and I don't have to worry about it.

>>491642694Wow. I'm starting to think that the railcannon is actually pretty strong, and not weak at all.
>>491642817...yes? Why would you think otherwise?
>>491642817>You can instakill ONE(1) charger every 3 minutes or potentially one shot a bile titan Top tier stratagem baka desu fan
>>491642904Hello?
>>491642937Bile titans take a minimum of 90% damage from railcannon, you can finish it with practically anything afterwards. I like to pop the sack a moment before the cannon hits for a guaranteed kill. Hands down best way to kill a titan.>b-but le 3 minutesYou have other tools to depend on during those.
>>491642937>stratagem to invalidate the entire mission of eliminate chargerthe gameplay stealer
>>491643425or to invalidate spore chargers every 3 minutes
>>491642817It can kill 2(TWO) targets as shown by it killing a berserker and a diver.
>>491643775idk what those are but i like to kill the big red ones w ith it they're so hard to kill
>>491643856only happens during skill issue moments
>>491635291you are likely hitting the limbs that don't transfer damage to main health pool, happens with stalkers too. the shots auto target so you can't really do much about it but fire again, happens with arc thrower too, a single hunter should be dead with 1 hit but they can take up to 3 before they get hit in the right place, jank as fuck.
>>491644008yeah, normally it only kills 1 zerker.

>>491645132you're wrong about striders and titans, either is unlikely to survive a railcannon hit once lightly damaged
>>491645445and a single OPS can fairly reliably kill titans by itself, while having a shorter cooldown, and the potential to kill a lot more shit around them besides, and can be used to kill a lot of objectives and structures. railcannon is just bad, the targeting is massively overvalued for its CD and damage.
railcannon = baseops/500kg = krincht: d5 pro
>he does not bring an auto cannon on botsyup thats a kick from me bro
>>491597680
>>491645739OPS can easily miss or be too late, plus it's affected by calldown modifiersfor railcannon you actively have to try to miss or be too slowbut like I said, it's good to bring both

>>491646492diff 7 who thinks he's god after buying all the stratagems
>>491644759500kg is not top tier, but its deffinitly above railcannon. It beats railcannon at its own niche, gets aoe on top and also can destroy objectives.
>>491646492D1.

>>491646626there's nothing else in railcannon's niche, anonas additional (and hopefully actually hard) difficulties get added to this game, cutting down TTK will only be more important, and nothing does that quite as well as railcannon
>>491644174real effective anti-heavy strat right thar... yep... *cracks open Galaxy Vibe Celsius and Zyn*
>>491646954no amount of butthurt and samefagging will get people to agree with your awful loadout choices
>>491646114i'd have to disagree, i've never felt like ORC would benefit me more than OPS or 500kg. calldown modifiers can be compensated for, worst case scenario you bait a BT into puking at you or trying to melee you, you're pretty much guaranteed to hit fac striders and tanks regardless of modifiers, and you shouldn't be using strats for hulks or chargers unless things are immensely fucked and you need the space.
>>491646954That was obviously a swolldiver. Not the canons fault he was so THICK!.

>>491646297HMG and AMR glew up on D10 due to the rocket chicken spam, but AC is still the 3rd best at schwacking structures from across the map and annihilates gunships.

>>491648395you can utilize it over the same distances as AMR and will do aoe damage as well as stagger enemieswhat situations is AMR actually better in? enlighten meprotip: I won't take sway, recoil, or reload time as arguments, a good player can handle all of those thingsyou also don't need to mention rocket chickens because AC can 1-2 tap them very easily
>>491648915they should be breakable and pennable by AT, it's absolutely insane how a 1-inch thick steel slab just shrugs off 84mm HEAT with 0 damage to the wielder

>>491648425HMG shits on pretty much everything fighting bots, RG is ok against dev/chicken spam and deals with hulks effectively but gets totally stonewalled by tanks and striders. Kinda requires bringing EAT or Commando along since RG is so terrible at killing durable targets.

>>491649353>stonewalled by tanks/stridersJAR handles striders, impacts handle tanks
>>491649549lol doesn't it take like 4 mags to kill a strider with the Dominator? doesn't seem like a very effective choice

I think the railgun should>be bigger (a lot bigger), big enough that you need to mount and go prone to fire it effectively (not because of recoil or anything but because it's fucking heavy)>do a shitton more damage and penetrate almost everything in the game>take slightly longer to charge per shot and there should be no half-charging>unsafe mode shouldn't kill you, it should be a 5x stronger hail mary/fuck you in particular type shot that destroys the gun and launches you backwards when you fire it>unsafe shot kill gunships on a bodyshot and factory striders on a belly shot and also take way longer to chargeThere, it's no longer just a worse, magnetically discharged AMR.
I've gotten too used to DCS nice handling and long-range shenanigans to switch to Dominator. Tapping troopers and devs is good enough. Rest can die to stratagems.
>>491633454I would wear that when it releases and I would wear this when it releases. Sometimes they make something kinda' cool looking. Sometimes...

They start thinking that they're good and that it's everyone else's fault when the crutch gets removed.In the railgun's case, the nerf was completely justified but they went too far with it. Build variety in the months since the railgun's execution was significantly healthier and more varied than the breaker/shield/railgun days. The problem is that Alexus sees high performance weapons as a problem, murders them, and considers the job done. A better balance team would consider the possibility that their nerfs might go too far and be prepared to buff them a bit in the future.

So, the last two days, probe missions have been bugged for me and the lobby. I will not be doing it again until they fix it. You don't hate swiggers enough.

>>491650606>In the railgun's case, the nerf was completely justifiedNerfed due to a crossplay bug. A bug not fixed for months. How do you justify that?It's almost like...it's easier for AH to nerf a weapon than fix systemic issues with their code...Get back to work Alexus.
>>491650606Do tell us how the nerf was justified.
>>491652025The crossplay bug was a separate issue, Alexus guillotined the railgun because the holy user metrics spreadsheet said it was being used too much compared to other support weapons, that's it.

>>491651531Ty for the suggestion. I’ll probably take the sentry off. I can’t see myself taking off the commando though. It’s saved my ass plenty of times when I didn’t have time to safely reload the spear and something big had to die quick. I just plop it down in the middle of big fights and use in the middle if necessary.
>>491651814I actually play AMR just as often. I just hate myself for giving it chance after chance. It's half as good as it needs to be and I consistently run myself out of ammo on d10 unless I take the supply pack which I just don't like to use.
If they want every weapon to be used... Why don't they just implement a customization system. Let me guess, too much work?

>>491652207>Alexus guillotined the railgun because the holy user metrics spreadsheet said it was being used too much compared to other support weapons, that's it.Yep this is literally it, and it hasnt changed. Breaker Incendiary being used 30% of bug missions? haha thats much too high, lets nerf it. Why? because people use it too much.Thats their full thought process.
Can't connect to anyone anymore since a day ago. When I finally find another match and actually start loading on the drop pod menu it drops me back onto my ship after a while. Verified files, reinstalled, nothing helps. Happened in the past too and it just magically went away after a few days.

Maybe have the HMGT for extra wave clear when the dropship/bughole spam happens or MAYBE the ORCS. You could literally just have two people bring the spear and pass it out to the other two teammates to free up ANOTHER slot.I'm just so tired of seeing people uselessly shooting guns at things they can't kill or even worse; just not shooting at all. Like I see them kill the light armor stuff and then a minor enemy has medium armor and their brains shut down; the just stop shooting everything and use slots for strategems to kill fucking six to ten worthless fodder on a massive cooldown. Shoot the weaklings. Nuke the fatties.

Full Pilestedt QnA from trooncord if you havent read it already: https://pastebin.com/d4Jyv2GXStrong take aways:Pilestedt agrees with everything community thinks. Continues to do nothingPilestedt himself has a nerf orientated mindset, when asked "man these 3 boosters get used all the time" his response was "yes but we dont want to nerf it" as if that should have ever entered his mind instead of putting them into the ship upgrade system or buffing the shit ones.he thinks stims are too strong (lol)Overall, nothing we didnt know, just a lot of yesman talk and concerning outlook

>>491653145it's because this dogshit game can't retain playersanyone with a bit of experience has a good sense of how to approach every type of enemy and even more importantly the right order to kill things inbut most people who play enough to get to that level move on once they've seen it all and hit the content ceilingthey might stay if this game had endgame progression but there's nothing, unlock all modules and bonds, that's it, you're done, fuck offsuch bad design especially considering they wouldn't even have to offer anything special as endgame rewards, even just basic ass weapon recolors would do the tricklike for example if you got a purple peacemaker for extracting 1000 high value samples, people would be all over that shit, despite peacemaker barely being used and purple being the gayest of all colorsnothing underlines the waste of potential as well as players getting good only to leave the game behind forever

>>491654975I actually agree, because it should really be a self administered medkit kind of thing instead of the functional immortality button it is now.

Same as the retarded botniggers in TF2 did.
Come on, bug brap cloud, do something already.
>>491659448>show don't tellI think this summarises my main issue with the galactic war. For every MO that's actually had 1 unique mission there have been 15 where it's literally JUST some text. Text to say what's apparently going down, text to say what the conclusion was. Nothing different about the missions, just 'hey do some shit over here for a bit' 'woah good job sport you did it and something good happened' or whatever. It's lazy as fuck. And yeah the galactic map is barren, there's nothing that indicates in advance the strategic importance of anything in particular outside the whims of the current MO.
Vehicles cancelled.
>>491665097THEY'RE ALREADY IN THE GAME FILES AND WORK FINE AAHAHHHHHH I HAGTE SIWGGRERSSSSSSSS
>>491665097woah who saw that coming!
>>491665097Makes sense. Would fuck up the balance of the maps like crazy. Anyone saying otherwise doesnt know their ass from their elbow.
>>491664713Yeah, I had assumed the galactic war map would feel more akin to a legacy board game where more permanent changes would be made to the map over time (kind of Legacy Risk in particular) whether through our actions or MOs in general, but outside of Meridia, which has done fuck all since, it's been nothing but text blurbs that hasn't really changed how the map much since. Sure, there's new supply lines here and there, but those aren't really significant changes.
>>491665097lazy
>>491665097People actually thought they would add those to the game? Like, niggers, the terrain on most maps is so chock full of trees and other garbage that a jeep or tank would just get stuck on objects and blow up like the walkers already do. It would be a useless piece of shit for the type of game this is. That was never happening. Ever.

Guy, i just gotta say how much i love this game! Spend the last hour and a half grinding out the map, having a nice time, and the moment extraction is called i get booted. It feels so nice to get absolutely fucking nothing in terms of progress from 4 nicely done missions because the game considers me taking part in extraction a taboo, god i fucking love sweden.
>>491666171>>491666410I don't understand why you guys can't imagine how a vehicle would work on these tiny ass maps. If you can travel 5 times faster than normal then as a team youll finish the map in under ten minutes, which means the devs would just have to make bigger maps to compensate for you being able to travel so much faster.
>>491666850THEY WORKED IN HELLDIVERS ONE AND THOSE MAPS TAKE 3 MINUTES TO CROSS ON FOOT YOU DUNCE

>>491667148Maybe? But it'd be hard as fuck to balance. Make the vehicle too weak and no one will use it obviously. Make it too strong and you'll have players just maurading through missions. I could maybe imagine a slow tank with a turret. But a fast moving APC would be too OP.

Post your hours and criticism for the game260 hrs>Lack of Mission varietyThey repurposed the Meridia dark matter bomb mission for the 'Nuke Nursery' GoodWe had the sample collection MO which would have been good for a sort of 'Resource Rush/Train Escort' mission: Collect as many resources as you can along a path while escorting the payload to a rocket on the same path. Players get stacked with resources, use on ship modules, repeat mission towards the MOCurrent MO: Could have a sort of bug planetary migration mission, Bugs are far away enough to still throw stratagems at while they still move in a single line/path across the map until they notice and overwhelm your position before you have to extract or you're wiped out. Sort of like the rocket defense but imagine having a weapons stockpile to drop, reload, switch out whatever. I don't understand how these swiggers devs can slap together this game like lightning in a bottle, not have any sort of cool decent ideas and manage to fumble this hard.

How long until they have changed the game so much that the Brasch Tactics videos just give you wrong information?
>>491670752>>491671080Yeah, how many arcchads do you have in there?
>>491670795the retard said bog as in swamp, using the vehicles in its early state showed they do have great possibility of actually being useful and helpful. The current arguments is they would be too overpowered because they are fast (they aren't) or they would suck because of terrain (limited only from swamp maps, terrain that you already wouldn't use a vehicle for) They are fine and give it a year or so of polishing yeah I can actually see them being added to the game. We've already been getting more leaks of helldiver tanks since last update in the files so vehicles definitely aren't canned.

Does someone have that webm of the exosuit getting oneshot by a single hunter?
You guys have to understand that Sweden is a country full of manchildren. And because of that they can’t take ANY criticism at all. Them saying that they can’t fix multiple problems because it will “break the game” is a great example of that. Its equivalent to a kid being called out on doing something wrong and making up bullshit excuses on why he can’t do better because he’s all asshurt that YOU had the audacity to see his errors and call him out on it.
>>491600251You can't fucking see anything. If it's daytime, it looks like this. If it's night, then you can't see anything without cranking up the gamma, and then it looks like shit. There's a reason the moon biome opens and closes within 12 hours every time, because people actually LIKE clarity.
>>491672615One issue.Todd said he doesn't want vehicles, but caved in.AH wanted vehicles, then realised they don't know how to code shit in.

>figured out D10 on both fronts>can solo without dying and without running away nowBut my loadouts are just, very boring and I don't know how to make it more fun, because fun is genuinely not allowed anymore.
>>491663551>Hate the game and hate the devs>Want to send a message to the devs to fix their dogass game>By RPing as disgruntled blue collar workers who drank too much and think beat their coworkers to death will get them that pay raiseI'm too intelligent for this
>>491675696What's your bug loadout? Mine all revolve around a medium pen primary and guard dog for handling the shitters on bugs, with quasar as the occasional harass tool for heavies.
>>491644174its not the worst and this is precisely how consoleshitters/reddit(bug)fags get through their d7syou didn't think it was a coincidence that they all ran incel breakers + railcannon, did you?
>>491676414airburst/orb gatling, 500kg, GL, whatever backpack i feel like
>>491648732No, two. Play the game.
>>491676414Light medic, Blitzer because it has infinite ammo and it BTFOs Stalkers (I'd run Incel Breaker otherwise), and if you run out of ammo you die.GP because it's GP and it closes holes on demand.500KG because it's 2 anti fat retards and OPS can't keep up.120MM because it BTFO's bug breaches no matter the seed spawn.Gas Strike because I can't manage both 500KG and Napalm Eagle at the same time and Gas Strike does a lot of work.Shield backpack because if you get slowed you simply die, no coping around it since now everything moves as fast as light armor spriting and there are too many sources of slow in the bugs faction.
>>491665097the fucking audacity to post this when we have literally been able to spawn functioning vehicles via hex edits since the day the game launchedFUCKING KILL YOURSELF SWEDENIGGERS>M-MUH MAP TRAVERSAL BALANCEsuck my fucking hog
>>491678173The half assed prototype vehicles with fucked up textures?
>>491677509No, it doesn't. I used an AMR on bots earlier today and it's always 3 shots to the engines.
>>491669335They do understand, they just think their idea of "fun" is better and we simply aren't the people who the game was made for.
>>491677509I've seen 3 shot minimum too. Maybe there is a specific spot for 2.
>>491669361>I don't understand how these swiggers devs can slap together this game like lightning in a bottleBecause over the 8 years of development everyone who actually made the game fun has left, and those that remain have no idea why it works and are mad that people like it because it isn't their "vision". There is no hope for this game.
>>491678173didn't they removed them from the files awhile back? the only one we have right now is the tank and boy is that one in development.
>>491673128>>491675208Pileofshit said no.

>network issues with a below average player count
>>491673128>>491675208>>491680819I say again that the hellpod/mech/dropship skins are a criminally obvious prototype for freely reskinning armor with the textures of another, we won't get full transmog due to Pilestedt autism- and I think he's right, since armor & perks are bound together visually- but at some point we're going to get sanely limited recoloring and pattern swapping.It doesn't make sense to do this work for two barely relevant secondary objects and a set of stratagems that are seeing little use as of now, and not subsequently do it for armor or weapons when people are highly demanding of customization in that context. It makes little enough sense that even swiggers can see that fact clearly. It's just a matter of workload to make the menus and clone the system across a large number of existing armors with properly zoned colormapping.
>>491681834I'll be fine with armors if they add in the black and yellow for every single set, its classic.

>>491669331>only works on certain mapsSo? Bringing the right tool for the right job is part of the game. I don't bring eagles to the swamp map because they get stuck in trees half the time. There's plenty of stratagems/weapons that I wouldn't bother bringing to bugs and several I wouldn't bother bringing to bots. There's nothing wrong with that.
>>491694845they're committing the cardinal sin of making the game slowly worse and less funif the game released right now, as is, it'd be a huge hit. People would complain but you wouldn't have this exasperated fanbase
Really fucking hate how Chargers' crushing charge before would trample you and beat you up, but you'd still survive. Now if a Behemoth Charger so much as glances you you're dead instantly.
Just solo'd a D10 geological extraction against bugs with EMS strike, it was comfy.

>>491704052I'd rather them have scrapped the maybe 1 year of work they did when swiggeray EOS'd and not have the game be crippled by unimaginable amounts of tech debt they'll never be able to recover from.
The game would have been fine, if they didn't go for live service bullshit.
>>491635291Durable damage lowers the damage of the blitzer to the point of hunters requiring 2 shots most of the time. The Blitzer arcs 3 times and the damage is divided between those 3. But durable damage lowers your fucking damage so even losing one arc is a huge blow to your total damage. This is why the blitzer is a stagger tool and not a weapon for killing. It's shit for horde clearing and requires you to kite the entire game
>>491705906Can you even call this game a "live service" when we get new content updates like once every 2 months? The """dynamic""" Galactic War is a completely stagnant joke covering up how 90% of planets are just place-holders.
>>491705668the decision to stick with it is what killed this game in the crib because they can't even hire freelancers or anything to help work through the growing pains since they would have to get trained up on this weird ass engine that AH is just figuring out as they go along themselves
>>491706945I'm glad snoys absorbed all the money the game made and that the money ended up in the pockets of someone that doesn't give a shit about videogames.

>>491707674EMS Mortar/AC/Rocket/Gatling Sentry is fun on bug planets that have no cover. Have to position them far away unless you want chargers raping them the moment they drop
>>491601870Yep. The spawn rates in the small maps are fucking insane. You either die instantly or hide in a corner of the map and die in 60 seconds.
>>491602276> 'you're supposed to have learned how to kill those on your own by the time you're attempting D10'While I agree, the devs also say that they want people to experiment and that every strat and weapon is viable. But only a handful can kill a detector tower. They say they don’t want to lock us in to a few strats and then design the game to necessitate that. And when they notice us locked in to those builds they nerf them. It’s fucked.
>>491708925I hope you realize that's a fake leak pushed by the leak discord. Along with the "heavy bot gunship" It's a inside joke spread around the discord to fuck with new users. Don't believe shit posted here unless it's posted on the subreddit.
>That time they "fixed" patrols and enemy compositionLegit goku ultra instinct.mp3 meme moment. I guess it was fun, "Meridia spawning all the Shriekers the engine could handle" fun
>>491706568>Durable damage lowers the damage of the blitzer to the point of hunters requiring 2 shots most of the time.Not a single part of a hunter has even so much as 1% durability.>The Blitzer arcs 3 timesThe blitzer arcs 5 timesThe reason why the blitzer is inconsistent against hunters is because they have 6 separate hitzones for their limbs and claws which have more health than each individual blitzer arc has damage, plus one for each wing, plus their body. They only transfer at most 50% of the damage dealt to them to the main body, which has 175 HP, so even if every single one of the 5 arcs hits the same limb it only does 125 damage. Or a wing eats it which only transfers 30% for 75 damage. Only a direct body shot or a head shot will kill in 1.
>>491709860god that was cool. The sky was ALIVE with shriekers. We'll never see kino like that again.
I wonder how many people think when they broke patrol spawn timings it broke in a way that made it spawn patrols more frequently in full 4 player lobbies and don't know it was only broken for lobbies of fewer than 4 players. I wonder how many people who regularly run full lobbies thought they got extra patrols too and were angry out of pure hysteria.
>>491710654I'm sure the patrols spawning right on top of me are just my imagination bro
>>491710792that's not what I'm talking about and that wasn't what they broke when they changed the timings of patrol spawns which caused the whole controversy that forced them to do a roll back in the first place
>>491709429I love sentries but I got berated early on for tkIng with sentries so now I think I'll get kicked if I use them. But that sounds fun I'm gonna try it
I don’t understand how people don’t get bored of this after like 12 to 20 hoursSame handful of mission variations. Two factions. Same handful of environments. No real story. No progression, we can’t win the war. No stakes, we can’t lose either. How do you put 100 hours into this?
>>491711064Just make sure you put sentries down in spots with controlled Lines of Sight so they can't just gun down your entire team because a hunter stepped in range. Place them on the low ground or adjacent to a rock or on a piece of high ground that exceeds in height where your team will be hanging around.
>>491711767There's going to be three factions eventually.Loads of weapons with which to kill enemies in many different ways.Challenge of trying to accomplish objectives against increasingly more and tougher enemies.Continued addition of more enemy types and more weapons and stratagems with which to kill them.Oh, and for a "live service" game the entry fee is only $40 USD.Until the balance is broken in such a way that the core gameplay ceases to be fun (and admittedly it is getting rather close to that point), I will continue to play this game.
>>491711767This your first horde shooter or something?I put 800 hours into it because it's fucking fun.
>>491711767Almost 700 hours. I only play for MOs and that alone. Really can't give a single fuck to play the game outside of that.

I don't think the game will EOS anytime soon but we all see the player numbers dropping. The game is gonna be "finished" probably by this time next year and held afloat by a skeleton crew after the squids are released and said crew irons out the last of the bug fixes like bile titans becoming invulnerable
>>491711776I used it.>EMS mortar>gatling sentry>rocket sentry>plappy gun>sickle>bushwacker>plap grenadeIt's very fun, but if you dont place your sentries right you're mad, and there arent any fuckoff panic strats to take down BT or charger quickly at moment's notice.I had fun 7.5/10

>>491714863Should consider the AC sentry over the gatling sentry to shore up your AT weakness. Rocket+AC sentry that focus fire something will rend whatever is on the receiving end and the combined splash will handle bug breaches well enough.

>vehicles cancelledI know several people that have said they'll only play again once we get fun stuff like vehicles. You can't convince me AH isn't actively trying to sabotage their game anymore.
>>491721173I'm not convinced vehicles will make the game more fun. Unless you somehow make them invulnerable to Devastator salvos and big laser cannon shots, they'll be about as useful as exosuits, probably less so since they'll probably come with an even longer cooldown.
>>491721173Well, maybe if you had appreciated AHs hard working devs more instead of insulting them and sending death threats you could've had a tank!

Well, it's been nice lads. The end of the month is quickly approaching with a good portion of titles releasing steadily throughout the end of the year.I don't think there's any recovery possible at this point. Probably log on in a year to see the other 3000 people equally bored.
>>491722903i had fun with HD2, i enjoyed it more than DRG, it was genuinely one of the best co-op shooters out there for a bit. really gonna miss it when it dies later next year.
>>491722903It's so over
>>491722897Something something encourage team play punish selfishness. Of course the irony is the supply hog himself never feels the immediate consequences of throwing the pod where nobody else will use it / failing to mark it.
Why is the HMG so good now?Granted you have a supply backpack with it too.>can clear mushrooms>shreds everything except the heaviest armor>can shoot butts off chargers easily in combination with a stun nade>actually does good damage to impliers face>can eyeshot hulksHaving the supply pack is just the cherry on top because now your primary also has a shitload more extra ammo.
>>491723769hmg has no business only having 75 rounds
>>491723096>enjoyed it more than drgI still think DRG is a more well rounded game with an ongoing identity and things to do.HD2 should have leaned HARD into the overly cinematic last stand motif that people were sucking down like big gulps never existed. Would have cemented a unique identity in the genre. Unfortunately they were too busy having meetings about spreadsheets and vacations at the most critical first year following release.
>>491723848give it anymore than that and the MG-43 has no reason to exist
>>491723898make it backpack belt fed with even more rounds.
>>491723860HD2 still has the absolute best moment to moment gameplay of the genre. The most core of its experience, the movement, the visuals, the impact of airstrikes, the gunplay and control are genuinely top tier. Its really upsetting that this piece of gold just gets covered in more and more pigshit every time they try to polish it.
>>491723898There's tons of ways of making each machine gun actually unique besides muh numbers
>>491723848Treat it more like a heavy rifle with an extended magazine and optional BRRRRT instead of a machine gun.>>491724080Why not just, you know, make an autoloader backpack stratagem?>mimics the backpack of any support weapon except EATs/Commando/Queso/Laser Cannon>can be used on support weapons without a backpack>automatically feeds your ammo reserve into the gun while giving at most 1 or 2 extra mags/shots>price of having this is a stratagem tax since now you can only bring 2 other stratagemsThis would make so many support weapons good.
>>491722146how about you read the thread dipshit
for me it's grenade launcher w/supply pack.

>>491722903>>491723096Its over bros see you in the 40k general in a month
>>491677121people on d10 do the same thing
>>491724656People on D10 also bring mechs
>>491724547I used to be that anon until it became clear to me that AC does the same job better without taking two slots.
>>491724762if you look past the stupidly constrained ammo pool, mechs are very useful>b-but cooldowni expect all stratagem cooldowns that are currently under 100 seconds to be increased in the future so you might as well get used to a less than short cd or two
>>491725117>mechs are very usefulIf, IF, you don't get killed in less than 30 seconds, which is what usually happens, essentially leaving you with only 3 stratagems
