Previous thread: >>495324842>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/>NEWSSept 5: Update progress https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/553850/view/4613462911400573371Sept 17: 1.001.100 Patch Notes https://steamcommunity.com/app/553850/eventcomments/6655846466490872829?snr=2_9_100003_Sept 19: Chemical Agents https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gwdf0G88OEY>CURRENT WARBONDSept 19: Chemical Agents https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gwdf0G88OEY

Why is the OPS so shit against tanks now
Im having a lot of fun playing now that im returning, glad the stratagem muscle memory is still there
>>495402790it's effectively nerfed with the new health poolsjust use 500kg or do the needful and become a recoilless noobtuber
>>495402790everything is mega shit against tanks now if you shoot from the front you giga retard.they increased the tanks armor from heavy to ultra heavy, making them impervious to damage from the front
>>495402876>the frontIt fucking lands on top of it you nigger
>>495402874>new health poolsbut the tank's health was not changed this patch, nigger
>>495402863>Im having a lot of fun playing now that im returningwhy werent you having fun playing when you werent playing?
>>495402874>recoillesslol t. spearchad
>>495402876>they increased the tanks armor from heavy to ultra heavy, making them impervious to damage from the frontthey have 6 front armour now. every AT weapon and every heavy red stratagem has at least 6 penetration, many of the latter have 7 or 8
>>495402583His Super-Seed... For Super-Earth.
>>495402698>wanting fake frames>wanting input delay>wanting frame times like you're playing remotely on a russian server>wanting the game to look like a blurry, smeary messYou people make me sick. Play the goddamn thing at your monitor's native res, and if you're an idiot with a 4k monitor, go get a 1440p monitor and use it instead. 4k is still a meme, and will be for another generation. Also if you aren't an Nvidia slopslurper, AMD has built-in upscaling for any game, and while it doesn't look fantastic, it still works and lets you run at a lower internal resolution and upscales in software to your monitor's native res.
>>495403040except the OPS and 500kg it seems
>>495403019Spear suffers because it doesn't have a dumbfire mode. For you it's tricky to land a missile directly on a titan's or strider's face. For an RRtard it's easy. And he does it on faster reload and a bigger ammo pool.
>>495402979NTA but the front armor is basically the top of the tank because it's wedge shaped.
>>495402876Aim for the gun barrel on the regular tank. Also if you are struggling aim for the tank tracks so they can only turn around.
>>495403116OPS projectile has 8 pen on 0 to 19 degree impacts and 7 pen on 20 to 40 degree angle impacts
>>495403109go fuck yourself amd shill, dlss is superior
>>495403073This also likely explains why Lesath keeps failing time and time again, this is supposed to be the front of the invasion so Joel wants to keep it bot-controlled until we finish this filler MO and clear out the Tanis sector.
>drop in next to a gunship fabricator>it spawns a gunship>i shoot down the gunship>OBJECTIVE FAILED>i find out at the very end of the mission that the failed objective is some random SAM site a mile awaywathow do you even fail it, does it just not work anymore if you do
>>495403532>how do you even fail itIt can be destroyed, it's an entity with a health pool.
>mg-43 against bots>heavy devs now flinch to cover themselves completely with their shield, making it take forever to kill them.wtf, this is bullshit.
JANNIES GONNA FREAK
>>495403628take the Diligence pill, headshot every dev
>>495403532>he left the microwave on and it explodedclassic
>>495402982>but the tank's health was not changed this patchexcept it was

>>495403628I tend to use dagger for those since it kills them fast enough without recoil and that gay stagger
>>495402790new health poolsstronger front armor
>>495403625huh, wonder what killed itcouldn't even have been the falling gunship since the SAM site died the moment i killed the thing in the air>>495403869aw shit, my casserole was in there
>>495403997>shitty baitoh i get it
>>495402790>>495402874You have to hit targets directly with the artillery shell now, it went from 450 direct + 1k explosion to 3.5k direct " 1k explosion. Tanks have 3k main body health now.
>>495403628>>heavy devs now flinch to cover themselves completely with their shield>nowthey always did that if they got hit with high enough stagger. was always a huge problem for HMG users if they missed the headhsot on the first shot
Found a glitch with the chudhelm
Adjewdicator or DCS?
>>495402982they said they increased the health of all heavy enemies to accommodate for increase in orbitals and support weapons damagebasically they say they buffed weapons but also they don't want you to have fun so they also negate the buffs by doubling hpOPS was left out from the buffs so it's underpowered now
>>495404176I had that yesterday lol
>>495404193I'd say DCS. 15 Shots still is a pretty generous mag for DMR playstyle. Adjudenkator also kicks back too much for my taste.
>>495404193CS if you hate yourselfxbow otherwise
>>495404229damnso the only purpose of the OPS now in bots is destroying detector towers?that's fucked
>>495404229>>495404328>OPS was left out from the buffs so it's underpowered nowit wasn't, the projectile got an extra 3000 damage. You just have to actually land the shot on the hull or turret now.
NO NO NO NO NO
>>495404328it had a lot of damage before the buffs so it's still kinda useful? I don't think it oneshots anything, but it deals a lot of damage
>>495404328Gas strike can do that.>>495404379I haven't had the OPS kill a tank via the hull since the update.
>>495404413wait a minute...
>>495404379I already had at least 2 shots hit the hull which resulted in the tank nonlethal burning. OPS is absolutely fucked this update. Shit at destroying tower Turrets too.
>>495404379>the projectilewowthe projectile that can't pierce top armor of any heavy unitsuch buffsmany damage
>>495404537>the projectile that can't pierce top armor of any heavy unit8 penetration on 0 to 24 degree hits, 7 penetration on 25 to 60 degree hits. vs 6 armour at most
>>495404259>>495404321DCS it is, what's a good secondary for deleting those fucking Berserkers? I'm currently using the Bushwacker but it can only kill one between reloads and is slow to reload
>>495404536make it another reason to be an RRcuck or resupply/TR sissy for one.
>>495404790redeemeror dagger
>>495404790Senator is a zerker headshot device. GP even better but harder to ammo manage. Dagger and Redeemer on single is fire quite good too. Any sidearm you like really, just pop their heads or waists.
>>495404864>>495404942Guess it's finally time to give the Dagger a try, last time I touched that thing was pre-Escalation of Alexus and it sucked. I'm guessing it's good now.
I hit this man with a few stimsNot addictive btw
>>495402698If your game lists upscaling in its system requirements it goes straight to trash, pajeet codemonkey.
>>495405186>mostly headshotsgood aim, lad
>>495404790crisper or redeemer
Imagine if they brought back the HD1 male voice as a voice pack you could buy or unlockI'd use exclusively that and the Steeled Veterans outfit from the very day it's available to get
>>495404413>green swatika playercard>chud helmetKek, this is the official kit of /hdg. If i see anyone of you rocking that combo, I will instantly know that it's one of you faggots.
>>495404413>whatchu doin rabbi?
>17k still on Pandion with zero (0) progress>its not even a good biome, its a foggy shitholeThe numbers have to be bugged, I refuse to believe this many people can be that unaware.
>>495405807yeah hd2 male voices are such fagson the other hand female voice in hd1 was trash, but in hd2 they are good
Who else has embraced femdiver superiority?
can orbital airburst kill devastators and chickens?
This is tier list what i saved in march
>>495406641>orbital airburstYes and it will mostly in 2 burst, 3rd is just to make sure they are dead
>>495406802>/hdg/ plays the game as if it was marchwho woulda thunk, explains all the shitposting about autocannon being #1
>>495406537Healsluts run this thread!
Art anon I’m excited for what you’ll cook up today. You got some funny requests yesterday before bed.
Been running smokes on d10 lately to surprisingly good effect. Portable cover for when some patrol 80m out decides to throw down, obscures gunship fire so you can more easily focus them down or cover yourself while you rig the hellbomb. Eagle version is also perfect for putting up a big wall when you need to run the fuck away.
>>495406485>Thank you~grug brain so easy to trick
>>495406458I don't understand why botdivers are so afraid of fog. All bug missions have fog from spore shrooms and chargers.
>>495407691Everyone already knew this shit for the past 7 months, grats on figuring it out.
steam://joinlobby/553850/109775244936569787/76561198126520852D10, Bugs, 3/4
>>495407234RR is #1 and RG possibly #2 but AC isn't far off, it's excellent against the same targets with awesome RoF and ammo reserve. autocuck with good aim can rack up shittons of heavy killshots.
>>495407691Yeah, you're supposed to use smoke against bots but I never see those scrubdivers using it.
>>495407878full, pool is closed.
>>495406537They should collab with Dead or Alive and put Marie Rose on the ship cleaning or something, that would improve the game a lot.
How do I even get a female diver? I never get one.
do you guys still collect samples even though you're already maxed on everything? I sometimes to it to help out randoms
>>495404413what did the sweedes mean by this?
>>495408704I do, if i just walk next to them cos you never know who need them
>>495402790Still kills tanks in 1 shot for me. I don't know what you guys are talking about.
>>495408696>how to tell you are this new
Lobby-sama!! AIEEEEEE
>>495407878This is definitely one of my favorites from mspaint anon
>>495404413
Heavy armor on bugs any good?
>>495410134No, you run like fat ass and they will rape your ass
>>495406914based, just gave it a try and it fucks
>>495406458It's 100% a factor of the planet being the "closest" to the center of the map when scrolling around. Dadgamers and other more bugchasers won't bother to scroll around for other options and just pick the first planet that pops up on the bug front, don't over-think it.
context: against bots, high diff
I'm all but certain localization confusion still does the exact opposite of what it's supposed to do
>495410383Can already tell it's shitter bait just by looking at the first two. Won't bother with the rest
>>495410383this has to be the worst tier list i've ever seen
I wonder if they’ll ever make the game available to be purchased worldwide again. The decision to regionlock it was a very stupid move imo.
So uuh any reason to use EATs anymore?
>>495410790SNOY needs money more than they need good playstation+ subscription results. They are clinically retarded if they continue locking out customers.
>>495410821No, RR has mogged it into submission
>>495410383>HMG emplacement in Fthat's all i needed to see to tell that you never touched d10 lmaoit's literally doing autocannon damage and shoots way faster than that garbage you put in S
>>495410821Bricks
>>495410383>HMG Emplacement not in god tiermoron, also the rest is also retarded

>>495410790I seriously hope that whatever executive tried to push the "We need more account sign-up numbers to look good at the next quarterly earnings report!" bullshit got fucking fired, or at the very least demoted.
>>495411101>>495411125Which one is it now?
>>495407234>plays the gameAnon, most posters here haven't touched the game since March: for example arguing about how orbital railcannon is S-tier or how the DCS sucks because it doesn't handle well.
>>495410883They are bleeding money in so many sectors of their company. Making good decisions doesn’t apply to any part of their business model it seems like.
is he ok
>>495410383>not using HE barrages against bot bases.that doesn't sound very comfy.
>>495411393The game is too fun... he cant leave...
>>495411393>Console shitter tries PC gaming for the first time
LOBBYDOKO
>>495410790it's beyond retarded, they're not getting new accounts and they're not selling more copies, it's a lose lose situation
>>495410883>>495411303if we are lucky the $400 million dollar abortion that was concord will make them reconsider their investments and hopefully see more money/support sent helldivers way
>>495407691I was running a full brap build as a meme with a friend, and I filled a strat slot with eagle smoke. It fucking sucked, but there was a cool moment where i used a smoke to cover the advance and gassed a detector tower to "confuse" all the hulks and rocket chickens inside so that I could set off a hellbomb.Neat that it worked, but ops would have just ended the encounter in 5 seconds.
>>495411393That’s the kind of shit I’d pull gaming on acid for a day cause it’s impossible to sleep
Get to Gacrux.
>>495411887I believe that is already the case with the high quality patch notes trailer + release of the game's soundtrack + PREMIUM(tm) strategems. I hope SNOY puts some weight behind Helldivers as I see not only a profitable future for the game, but an entirely new genre ripe for vidya.
>>495411393He alt-tabbed and forgot to close the game
>d9 eradication fails at 67% because the fucking time ran out>also fails the entire op>killed all the bots as they came, nothing could be done to avoid itPlease don't even bother fixing the mission, just remove it from the game altogether. Nobody ever liked it.
>>495411887They are definitely trying to recoup their money. I highly doubt that this game making a complete 180 to be fun again was without their intervention once they saw how hard it was tanking.
>>495408704>GET THE SAMPLES BRO>I DROPPED THREE RARES BACK THERE>HELLO, SAMPLES?!>WHAT DO YOU MEAN IT'S ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE MAP AND I EXHAUSTED OUR REDEPLOYS TRYING TO GET THEM BACK, WE CAN'T LEAVE WITHOUT THEM>WHAT DO YOU MEAN DON’T ATTACK PATROLS, I GOTTA GET MY KILLS UP!>WHAT’S THAT RED EYEBALL AND WHY CAN'T I USE ANY STRATAGEMS?>DAMN THE MAP IS ANGRY TODAY>WHY ARE YOU EXTRACTING, WE HAVEN’T FOUND ALL THE RARES YETOnly just back playing after months. Are sampleautists still an issue? Have they been filtered or have they graduated to fucking up diff9s?
>>495408704I'm not maxed out on everything because I don't play this game religiously and randoms don't like collecting samples/die too far with a lot of them.
>>495412249They are in D10 throwing reds on top of everybody friend and foe alike now.
>>495408704I always samplemax even in a lobby full of lvl 150s, because:>someone might need these
>>495412220Seems you only get enough spawns with 4 players on D10. Maybe D8 and 9.
>>495412249>back playing after monthsYou are the issue here shitter
I've been capped on samples for months and I still pick up all the samples I see on reflex
>>495412532>t. punished sampleanon, an autist denied his three rares
>>495412446Had one of these yesterday throwing cluster on cooldown. He had 12 deaths and team killed about 9 times. GET THE SAMPLES.

what is easier: jungle bots or flat plains bots
>>495413946No one plays bots bro skull emoji
S are infallible tryhard crutch itemsA are brutal with minimal drawbacksB are great in the hands of skilled diversC are overshadowed by better items in their classD are decent but ruined by overblown usage restrictionsF are quite useless and warrant massive upgradesno particular order within tiers
>>495413946We are the redheaded stepchild of this game
Why do brown people so obsessed with the new nazi armor set?
>>495414252they're just like the rest of us
>>495414186>mines in B tierOpinion discarded
>>495407402What the fuck is a heal slut?
>>495414186Jetpack is good. Getting access to alternative entrances to outposts and being able to perch on tall rocks to blow up every fabricator in sight with Quasar makes it worth it. Will also save your ass a few times throughout the mission by letting you escape places you couldn't otherwise.
>thousands of people have been grinding Gaellivare for actual days with 0 progressThis galactic war fucking sucks, why is this even allowed to happen
>>495414384AT mines got fat buffs of late and napalm mines have never really been bad. A squad throwing around mines smartly can trivialize a d10.
>>495408704Fuck em i drop samples down a hole.
>>495414186>deployable shield bubble in Fbugdiver only detected
>tier list postingIt's honestly one of the most effective trolls you could do on this thread. Just think about how much time you waste by looking through each tier and forming an opinion of the poster based on each item.
>>495413946what do you guys want, a dehumidifier?
>>495414668>look for something that the player obviously didn't experiment with, showing that he's completely inexperienced with the game probably clocking 70-150 hours total with shiptime>discard his opinionit's that easy.
>>495414668No one actually analyses the tier lists people post though right? You just look at S tier for a few seconds then move on because they are retarded 99% of the time.The actual time waste is in the tier list creation itself.
>>495413946Just wait until the cowboy themed warbond
>>495412249Yea thats literally me, also WHY THE FUCK THERE ARE SO FEW COMMON SAMPLES, EVERY UPGRADE NEEDS GORILLION OF THOSE AND ONLY A FEW OF RARES AND SUPERS

>>495415034some nigger farted in piss sample container
>>495415034Indian settlements
>>495415025Can you really blame them when there's no in-game way to see decay rates?
>>495414186All mine should go 1 tier down at the least. Tesla too.I'd put OPS 1 tier down as well since the HP buffs for heavies made it considerably more finicky to use.Imo, flamer and libdog could go 1 tier up. They are not that good but the dmg is more than servicable if used for respective roles (especially since laser dog is that high)Bubble shield is C at the very least as it is plenty serviceable for bots.RG and AC are definitely not S now.Otherwise agree.
>>495413946shamelessly reposting my ideas for the ideal anti-bot warbondAT guard dog, shoots mini HEATs like the rocket sentryprimary: Gauss gun, a bit like railgun but can rapid fire instead of chargeshield bubble grenade, big enough for 2-3 divers, lasts a few secondsstratagem launcher pistol, shoot your barrage/500kg/sentry beacon across the mapsuper earth color skins, white yellow blue, blind patriotism vibearmor perk: impact resistance, survive falling as well as getting smacked against the wall by some ragdoll shit, comes with recoil reduction so you can spam your Gauss gun more effectively

how does eruptor shrapnel work? if I hit chargers ass, will some shrapnel hit it too? Or does it all fly outwards?
be careful out there bros
>>495415034Tbh guys, I think the Teminids having magic space gas so they can be anywhere anytime is super faggyI know caring about the plot is gay, but if it's gonna be this low effort just automate the war then
>>495415289OPS power is awesome on direct hit and I usually land it since I pinpoint my throws via servo assisted perk. I think flamer is being overshadowed by the higher range arc thrower. Same goes for the higher range guard dog and rover vs dogbreath. Bubble shield simply needs more juice for me to be impressed, just like the other items I put in F. AC and RG are stronger than ever. With enough hits they can obliterate literally any breakpoint.

>>495416070I like your ideas. Throw in a dual AC emplacement with the same firepower as the mech.
>>495416218>lvl 52Hi welcome to the game newfriend. Enjoying your first week? lmao
>>495416314Lame. Would serve the same function as HMG emplacement, we need an AT one.
>>495413946yeah because we have x4 more players playing BUGS, not botsit makes sense to sell warbond to MORE people
>>495415340This but make the AT guard dog just like the rocket sentry, with the backblast too for maximum self ragdolling
>>495416435how about a missile + AC wombo combo? imagine the hulk carnage

>>495416594d9 and 10 simply aren't conducive to sample collecting fren. it should be obvious why. my honest tip is to squad up for 6s and 7s. there is zero need for you to grind samples on d10 because you'll never need as many supers as a d10 can yield. youll need commons and rares more which are more than plentiful on mid difficulties and very easy to extract. and of course youll meet way more players that need the samples as much as you do. maybe in the end when you have one or two upgrades to unlock and somehow only miss supers it's wise to drop into d10.

>>495421603Infinite ammo, no recoil, in my opininon more versatile but pairs much better with the Eruptor because it can fill in the gap where the eruptor fails, like hulks and all strider variants.

which secondary helps me deal with scout-striders reliably
>>495422880private
>>495422881Senator and GP are the only options.
>>495422949my bad, public now

>>495422880POOL IS CLOSED
>>495423092You can't just pick up another man's ?
>>495422881GP and Senator are the only two secondary weapons that damage them, and Senator does such a shit job of it that GP is the only realistic option.Secondaries shouldn't really be used for chickens, in my opinion. Get a primary for it and reserve the secondary for something cancerous like zerkers or maybe even stimming
>>495423207Senator isn't bad, I think it's 5 shots to the joint now. Does GP one shot them? I don't use it much on bots.
>>495422285>Nerf + Power-crept by increased enemy HPThey made it into a worse AMR just because
>>495423014>>495423207It's as I feared. I keep using the GP and direct-hits won't kill the driver sometimes, which leads me to get 2-tapped. So fun.
I miss the giganigger BTs that could tank 4 500kgs, an OPS and 7 RR shots
>>495423401GP oneshot them at least prior to the patch if you shot them somewhere around the base of the gun barrel. Haven't tried it after the patch dropped, though.Senator isn't a great option because it has 6 rounds, 5 of those go into one strider and firing it is slow. There's more than likely 3+ scout striders advancing on you whenever they're on the field. If you do the maths though, sure, the Senator is more or less the same as the GP in terms of how much ammo you have if you were to purely kill scout striders and accounting for the fact that both weapons need a lengthy reload between kills. But the Senator can also quickly dispatch chaff and even Devastators if you aim well, so it is more versatile in that regard.>>495423697Where are you shooting? Did the patch make them just sturdy enough to survive a GP shot to the groin?
Did they break how the armored chickens work? I thought you could shoot the missiles on the rack but that doesn't really seem to work reliably. In fact sometimes the rack itself explodes off first which is wtf tier.
Posts funny bugs you remember>that time picking up the spear crashed everyone's game
>>495423461It's still top pick and remains my favourite for bots, but factory striders are now it's one issue sadly. Hulks actually feel easier now because I don't feel like I am wasting ammo by hitting the body and no longer have to burst fire it. Other stuff dies about as fast
>>495424105That funny time using the Arc Thrower crashed everyone's games, but gave you 10-20 seconds of dread where all your allies were running in place before it booted you out.

Balance/rework idea for BTs because they are lame now and die as soon as they appear: RR should only one shot them if you hit the leg joint, making them collapse instantly. Joints are far harder to hit than the head as they jitter around constantly. This forces you to either let them come closer or go for a far riskier shot. Hitting the head would blow it up, but BT would continue living like other bugs often do. In that state, it'd no longer be able to focus it's spit and instead would just spray it all over the place blindly, at short range and in a wide "cone". Either popping the sacks or another RR shot would be enough to finish it off.

>>495429289It was the June patch

>>495430807>How good is gas orbital?Very. It's a complete disable that makes the enemies in it a complete non-threat for the duration. Just don't expect it to kill anything bigger than a warrior/trooper unless the enemies in it happen to kill each other.

redpill me on bringing orbital napalm to bots
>>495437842Not "P U"
Proto-Hellmire is growing on me.I think they fixed the fire tornado AI to chase down enemies. Because each time it shows up, it's been beneficial to me. Granted I had an extract that was 100% covered in flames. But I was rocking an exosuit, so it helped there too.Exosuit is great too. At least the emancipator.
>>495437865Being able to insta kill entire dropships just feels too satisfying not to bring the RR
>>495437921It's great for the blitz missions as an extra copy of the 380.
>>495437921It kills all the robots that aren't big, simple.
>>495438036Emancipator got a perfect buff IMO. Extra ammo and durable damage was all it needed to be pretty solid. Just wish they were tankier.
>>495435615
>>495437921Kills the enemies that call bot drops, but that's about it. I'm pretty sure if they see the strategem they'll still call, so it's a 50/50 if you kill everything in the POI.For RAW DOT? Flames do about 75 DPS with the upgrades. (Not sure if the orbital napalm gets upgraded.)With the highest enemy health for bot chaff being 800, it'd take about 8 seconds of them standing in the fire to kill them. (They would stay burning for 2.75 seconds, which THEN would kill them in 10 seconds).Might seem like a long time, but 6 seconds is a stun grenade and unless they're on the edge of the zone. It's highly likely everything in there is dead.Hulks/tanks will be the only things left, and you can build according to that pretty easilly.
>>495438472still need a normal crosshair instead of big thick circle of cum which is unusable on distances more than 50m
>>495438573>(Not sure if the orbital napalm gets upgraded.)It does. Just checked.
>>495438628Skill issue Just center the target
>>495438628Crosshair overlay fixes that
Is there any other support weapon that can destroy the bot cannon turrets from any direction other than the recoilless rifle and the spear?
I feel like the meta didn't change much AC still reins supreme over the bots

>>495441859We got a penis connoisseur in the thread.
They fucked up the tick rate of all flame weapons. They didn't nerf the damage, they just set them all to 100 ticks per second instead of the discrepancy they used to have.I don't think the "torcher" actually deals 375 damage per second like they claim it does, but deals 300.

>>495443257What's funny is I don't see it used that much,I'd rather have it be where it is now than it be average or below average.
>>495444154Just restart Steam if that happens
>>495441696Yes. Medium with padding is now top tier I would say. Its always been really strong since they gave additional bonuses once you got over 100 armor but this cements it.Also this kind of shit reminds me of how dogshit the current boosters are.Why isnt there a "reinforced armor" booster that gives +30 armor to all divers? How about a regeneration booster that lets you recover from wounds if you arent attacked for a certain amount of time? Boosters that release a small area gas (codename SKUNK) to disorientate enemies when you're attacked in melee? Or a booster that does the same but when you're shot and its smoke instead? (codename SQUID)Why dont they bother trying to usurp the top tier boosters at all? Why is it all useless shit and even literal troll picks like the firebomb hellpods?
man I wish there was a motorcycle, I'd actually play solo if that's the casethe worst part about solo play is just walking between the objectives because there's no action going on
steam://joinlobby/553850/109775244998853984/76561198120804312Alright, should be fixed now. D10 Bugs is UP!
>>495444319>plays a TEAM COOPERATIVE SHOOTER solo>its... le boringAnon...
You can hate me and I don't care but I'd enjoy playing with you guys a lot more if we were on mic.
>>495444262I use light gunner (light armor + padding) in nearly every mission and I haven't noticed much of a difference
>>495444319There was a motorcycle in HD1.Not sure how they could make it worth bringing in HD2 considering you are giving up a lot of firepower for it.On bugs it could be okay but bots would just destroy it almost instantly.
>>495444813I enjoy playing with you a lot more when you're not on mic
>>495444813>having to hear a jeet try to hide his accent, troons trying to sound feminine, that one dude with a nerd lisp, all the international dudes speaking broken English Nah we good with text chat
>>495444090Yeah I wanted to get some CINEMATIC shots of all our barrages at the end of the mission towards where I threw everything at the start of the clip, so you can see the HUD gets toggled on and off as my inebriated brain struggled to process what it was looking at.And my subsequent panic at the end realizing that I was the only one who made it. But that's mostly because the end of the last mission featured me informing everyone that the first person on the shuttle is a PUSSI and I would rather die than be the first on the shuttle. Then this mission happened.
>>495443419Don't be intimidated. It's very easy. The parts only fit one way and there really are only one/two ways you could fuck it up beyond salvaging.
>>495410383probably one of the worst tier lists i've seen
>>495444696but I want to play and don't have friends
Am I chud enough for the cool guys club now?
>>495445064Sounds perfect for SE immersion.
>>495445548>No gas-related stratagemsAnd you call yourself a chud?
>>495444989the addition of vehicles should have a separate slot of courseand for hecks sake mechs should be findable on the map
>>495445690I've got gas grenades, they kinda make the orbital brap obsolete
>>495445690No fire too. Definitely a pozzed pozzer,
>>495431648They're both pretty good. I'd get Cutting Edge first because I think the primaries are more fun but it's up to you. Stun grenades are great, but so are the thermite ones now. Skip Viper.
>>495444989Motorcyle was great for sample farming in the first game. Take that and the UAV. Good times.
>>495446162Should have used soijacks instead of text to represent reactions.
How are the mechs looking with the new patch?I haven't seen a single person use one in weeks.
>>495446431They're both a lot better than they used to be. Still not really worth bringing outside of blitz missions though.
>>495446431ACmech got some good buffs, Patriot is basically unchangedThey're still bad
>>495446431Opposite for me, I've seen them a lot more, especially on the bug front. Overall they're more useful since heavies go down easier.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0sbY1WQTXM4Liberty Day can't come soon enough.I want my raifu.
>>495446431EM got a decent buff and armor nerfs made LIB a bit better, but both still bleed ammo too fast and get you killed the moment you face anything more than 1 patrol/small post.
>>495446431emancipator can kill like 6 or 7 bile titans if you aim for the head, not sure about other firing angles. still something i always take so i can stomp around and blow up bug nests without thinking very hard, gets fucking shredded by shriekers but thats a mech issue in general.
>>495437921combines very nicely with the other barrages, melts chickens and devs
>>495446535Patriot rockets got buffed too
>>495445548120mm fell of a bit to be perfectly honest, recommend replacing it with walking barrage
>>495444989Make it a vehicle bay side objective on the map and completing it lets you refuel and use random vehicles. The game needs more things like the defense batteries and SEAF artillery that gives you bonuses in a round.
>>495446676>not a clip reload
>>495446902I keep thinking that but the walkings cooldown just feels too long for what it doesThe 120 can blow up medium outposts and drops just fine
>>495446162>not using every stratagemyour heckduding is mere pretense so your opinions are irrelevant
Retard here. I still don't understand how supply lines work after 200 hours. Would capturing Lesath give us 5 planets at once?
>>495446431Still awful on bots, decent on bugs.Bug eradiation though mechs are meta
>>495447030>he doesn't like the feeling of stuffing his rifle one bullet at a timeVery subpar taste, anon.
>>495446162what if i use 2 based ones and 2 cringe ones
>>495446431The ac can kill stuff now. That's about all I know. Aim is still shit but the mech increases survivability if you aren't completely unaware of surroundings so you can just walk in and blow stuff up and leave. I mostly use it for when extract is swarmed by like 10 patrols.
>>495446676>180 damage>no bayonet>rounds reloadHopefully those are just placeholder stats because holy shit that thing sucks.
>>495447150Should be single bullet reload for anything less than completely empty just like the revolver
>>495447095No, it would make capturing them faster.
>>495447030>clipIts called a magazine.
>>495447056fair, but your spear already brings top tier outpost neutralization and surgical removal of anything really dangerous in a bot drop. you could play around the cooldown. walking is utterly brutal if you land a really good one.
>>495447421nah, it's actually a clip this time
>>495447448You make a good point. I should give the walking another shot.
>>495447421For a rifle like that, that would actually be a clip.
Eh, the brap Rover isn't that dogshit against bugs honestly. I could survive all solo encounter and multiple breaches easily on D9-D10.
>>495447421>Its called a magazine.
>>495447636It's decent but will absolutely not keep up with laser rover.
Honestly this warbond kinda stinks, the gas grenades are the only good thing in it
>>495447448Walking is fucking nuts after the big buff and modules. Think it has double the area coverage compared to launch. Utility when assaulting fixed positions is unmatched now
So, when are we getting armors like the ones from concept art?
>>495447754I like it better than the laser dog because I don't accidentally decapitate others as much, and I ran a short range loadout (Cookout, and Dagger/Senator), also every elites are negligible since I also carry EATs to not waste any backpack slot, all good
>>495447925All of these suck except the halo helmet rip off with the tube gang armor in the top right.
>>495447873Yeah, really enjoy how tight the spread is. Nothing more satisfying seeing a base or mass of enemies get crippled by a single salvo.
>>495444605I'll just play later I guess damn shitty internet can't handle a windy day. 3/4
>>495447925>samuraidiver warbond>katana, matchlock, oodachi mech>booster that just goes YOOOOOOOOO when you call in anything
>>495447925this is some Destiny shit
>>495448212Thinking you whiffed but then seeing 20+ bots get killed by the next two impacts is an amazing feeling, knowing that it effectively trivialized the heavy base. Feels like it goes on forever with the extra salvos, though that does feel a lot worse on the rare occasions it threads the needle to miss a command bunker or detector tower
>>495443643Shouldn't. It's not listed.
Are the Scythe and LC good yet?
>>4954446053/4 again, come fast anon we need (You)
>>495447925Reminds me of Halo Infinite, I'm hoping Helldivers 2 doesn't go too gimmicky with samurais and spartans and shit. Stick to chud gear please, no one else in the games industry is
>>495448792LC is great for rocket chickens and gunships, with good general utility against devs and troopers and deals with berserkers decently after their nerf and the recoil removal. Hulk changes hurt it a bit since it’s easy to slightly miss the head with the beam obstructing your view and not realize it, and it’s a lot worse against tanks and turrets after the health changes. Scythe finally got a sight and feels a lot better but other primaries still eclipse it in a lot of ways with how much the power level got raised.
>>495448792Laser cannon needs the heavy penetration buff. It can't take out anything that really matters against bots. Bugs its decent. Its TTK is pretty low and it overheats quickly.
>>495445774They are rarely on D2/3, the most useless place for them.
Buff heavy armor
>>495445006Why do you guys hate convenient hands-free communication?>>495445064None of those applies to me
>>495439598give him some sympathy such is the life of a mech diver
I know, >reddit, yaddda yadda, but this thread shows the mentality of your average bug chaser. He thinks that pandion not gaining liberation is a bug.https://www.reddit.com/r/Helldivers/comments/1fm8upg/pandionxxiv_liberation_progress_constantly/
>>495450084Yes, why wouldnt he? To someone who isnt checking a 3rd party app it would make no sense how a planet with a consistent 10-20K+ divers on it at nearly all times isnt going down.AH's system is fundamentally broken and retarded.
>>495440434forgot the OPS>but you can't hit it reliability learn the 90 degree throw
>>495443118It feels like they beefed up the heatsink, I haven't played in a couple of months but I remember them getting destroyed by fewer AC shots.
>>495450284This, the whole thing needs a rework and to be made clearer. Though bugniggers are indeed retarded.

>>495410821you can use the initial hellpod that it drops with to kill an additional heavy unit, and it also tracks them unlike reds if you manage to land it on em. kinda only useful on the bug side
While I agree it's dogshit design, I can't fathom why there's such resistance to using outside tools like that's a novel concept. Roguelites, soulslikes, hunterlikes, gacha, etc are practically built around having a wiki open. Destiny depended on third party sites to have functional matchmaking and inventory systems. Games like Warframe and Darktide had notification sites for mission and store rotations that were practically mandatory. Every single game has endless youtube guides players will watch before they're willing to try something new. Bugdivers have no excuse. You don't beat your head against a rock for days straight without exploring why nothing's changing.

How would (You) fix the Pandion issue?Throwing out some random ideas:>Indicator showing exact liberation decay %>Vague indicator on each planet (High enemy resistance/Low enemy resistance)>Galactic map voting where players get to vote on which planets to target, top voted gets highlighted as priority targets

>>4954530643/4
>>495414743yes.
>>495452376If the design implemented requires something outside of said design, then its dogshit.Pandion is just a symptom of how poorly designed the whole system is. You should never, ever, have to say "well if you checked this site that isnt linked anywhere or shown at all in game or even mentioned..." then you should instantly be questioning the devs, not the players.There are a shit ton of ways to implement something similar to what is happening in game right now without ever leaving the game:>Add a warning when selecting the planet advising the player that enemy resistance is extremely high and it will be impossible to take the planet but you can still dive there>Simply add the decay and gain rates in a stylised format, declaring planet capture impossible depending on decay>Add big flashing signs to planets with low decay and call them vulnerable targets. Have them flash more intensely the first time players access the map.Incentives optional, but options to quickplay a front should exist that provide more rewards and send you to the least resistant planet if you really want to control player movement.Finally:>Add small sub MO quests for planets that revolve around specific missions that allow for the resistance to be reduced instead of it being controlled by a swedeUltimately there is no end goal to the war and the swedes have seemingly given up on anything feeling real or having a deeper meaning for the moment.
>>495444835Same. Fast moving speed is still the best buff that you can get in the game right now.
>>495453665That would work if they didn't railroad everything.
>>495452921Even if we had all the information in game, the never ending war system would still be shit because there are no stakes
>>495452376It's poor design as you say, but these people are genuinely retarded. If you were able to directly communicate with the majority of any person diving on pandion right now and ask them about the liberation meter you'd be met with a resounding "what?" or "huh?"they are unironically retarded npc cattle and the only thing arrowhead should do is fold to them and let them take the planet so they can stop griefing the entire galaxy

>buffs your guns a little>triples spawns

>>495453917Them changing shit on the fly is not an issue. What's improtant is to see the info on the map.
After a game with sterilizer in a 4 man, I am definitely sold on it.Loadout Blitzer, stim pistol, gas grenades.StrategemsJetpack, Sterilizer, Napalm Air, Napalm orbital.Probably would swap napalm orbital for gas strike.You can just lock down any side during a defensive strat. Staying next to dudes and sterilizing shit that's coming towards them helps a ton, and it's very strong to just napalm airstrike and sterilize the enemies ontop of it.
>>495453665>Ultimately there is no end goal to the war and the swedes have seemingly given up on anything feeling real or having a deeper meaning for the moment.Someone didn't understand the message of the media.

How does the crisper compare to the torcher? I've used the torcher and it felt pretty descent on bugs, and I was surprised to see the crisper having the same damage value.
>>495454938same DPS, smaller mag. Kinda like throwing an impact
>>495454227Forgot to add, the one thing the gun badly needs is stagger and range. Also confusing biletitans needs to be more consistent.The kit itself lacks a heal, and you will take a lot of chip damage, so when they add stim pistol self healing I think it'll be perfect.

>>495454251>Someone didn't understand the message of the media.Your shitposty response being ignored. I think its important to note that most previous HD2 "campaigns" had meanings to them. Either introducing new enemies, providing new weapons, important story beats like the TCS, Meridia etc. The bots defeat and return, cyberstan...That kind of narrative is incredibly important. You saw the TCS discussions fucking everywhere, what it meant, what will come next, maybe the HD1 bigger enemies making a return, the ayy lmaos appearing etc.Those kinds of narratives being woven are very important. its not a coincidence that the massive drop in playerbase coincided with the galaxy map just being left in a vague "nothing ever happens" spot.
I wish the patrols spawns were at least consistent. Right now you can go from endless conga line that walks in from all directions faster than you can kill them to fucking nothing for several minutes in an instant.
pwease understand, we so small indie company, twying ouw hawdest, also we're swedish and working is really really hard, pwease go easy on us guise :(((but ALSO you're all wrong about everything and we always know what's best despite being incapable of playing our own game at anything resembling a high levelwhat the actual fuck is wrong with swedes? Is there really a whole country filled with "people" like this?
>>495454938Crispr is a bit of an odd one. Its a sidearm for emergenices but it's still got a slow ignition timer making it difficult to use against hunters without getting stabbed a few times.Its very good when paired with gas grenades, and it makes very quick work of alpha commanders and hive guard. Its small mags mean against larger hordes you're best off laying down some fire trails and runningI like pairing it with the Eruptor
>>495452871>useful only against fabs, hulks, turrets, maybe tanks didn't test itwrong, RR shoots down gunships and gets you spontaneous 15x kills from downed ships
>>495456546I figured if I had a reliable main weapon I could just use it for when I wanted to deal with swarms of chaff easily. Seems pretty nice for that.
Overall I'm pleased medium extra padding is the meta so most people are back in the basic gearSeems there's still issues where if joiners leave it doesn't repopulate though
>>495455632it is consistant. If your'e near the objective or fabs/bug holes, it spawns a shit ton, rush the objective and the spawners. Once you destroy everything the patrols drop immediately.If you finish final OBJ it gets super high, standing near extract also raises it dramatically.
>another MO where details we're not privy to are critical to success>joel literally turning bugdivers into dead weight without telling themreminder, pick any planet you want to fight on, the MO is made up and literally does not matter
>>495458185This, the worst is having a small base active after completing the main objective. It become a real slog.
>>495446431Emancipator or whatever is fucking amazing. Just needs one more call in and it's perfectly balanced and would take a shit ton.
>>4954464313 uses and i may consider them useful. as it stands now ilike the emancipator as a solo meganest clearing machine.
>>495458574>>4954589683 uses and 5 min cd would be a solid improvement to usability.

>>495460934No there aren't. It's literally the best one. I've tried basically all of them today. Maybe it's worthless against bugs, but I'm not a bugman chink.

If the total amount of players on a planet doesn't exceed the % of the playerbase needed to go positive then no liberation should be taken at all, this makes it so those on positive planets have more liberation since those in the red are effectively "offline".

>>495462128>patch moves 30+ weapons from F tier to A/S tier and suddenly practically any loadout is workableImportant to note the vast majority haven't touched the game in months. So there's tons of new content for them. But even if you played religiously, the game not feeling like a weak-punches nightmare any time you stepped outside of the meta might as well be new content.

>>495462372an earlier lobby attempted a bugdivefirst mission of the op was a hive nuke drill. second drill we arrive at is bugged. we had a suicide spree, then went bots. bugs are the jankier more frustrating faction. while not even offering a bigger challenge that is.
>>495462128Game went from "you shoot with peashooters and die easily" to "you shoot with actually efficient weapons and super effective stratagems but you die VERY easily". Gameplay is a lot more frantic, with plenty of new weapons and strats seeing the light of day. People are having fun, so they're playing again.
>>495462128several enemies got reworked so that more weapons were reasonably able to deal with them. Rather than being nearly impossible to deal with outside of dedicated AT and accurate/lucky stratagem placement.
>>495462601glad it's already cold enough here for the insect shits to hibernate and die off, I love winter so much for being rid of them.
NO PAINNO FREEDOM
what's the best bot primary and why is it crossbow?
>>495462990because they overtuned crossbow and it functions better than most support weapons against devs and zerkerspost-nerf it'll probably be more varied based on playstyle
>thermite is good nownice, i always wanted sticky grenades to be functional
>>495462990Depends. DCS is just a little better if you use GP or AC because either will be there for you if you need your shots to go boom. Crossbow definitely is the better choice if you wanna use RG, MGs, AMR, or any pistol that's not GP.

How have they still not made it so that you go prone after getting ragdolled? How is the retarded slow forced getting up animation still even in the game? are they stupid?
>>495464440Forcibly going prone is even worse and that used to be in the game too. You'd be stuck and then need to reactivate the getting up animation yourself. Effectively dooming you in any situation where you are still being shot at/stabbed
LOBBY AAAIIIEEEEEEE
Somehow it feels like I get ragdolled a lot more often when diving than last patch
>>495464294I'm thinking about going up to D10, I just unlocked it yesterday
>>495464598>Forcibly going prone is even worse and that used to be in the game tooI don't remember it being in the game but maybe you weren't forcibly brought up if you prone while ragdolled, I can't exactly rememberor maybe it was less infuriating because everyone was running light armor and animations were fasteranyway, you're retarded if you think making you space out for 2 seconds under fire is better
>September 2024>people still haven't realised MOs are rigged and nothing we do will change the outcome (unless you're chinese)
>>495464440The whole ragdoll into getup animation needs to be reworked. I also enjoy the flinch recovery out of a stim, personally my favorite thing to seethe at
>>495464598>forciblyThere is nothing forced about it, it's the postition you are already in after getting ragdolled. getting up yourself is also far faster and it doesn't lock you in place.
>>495464791it seems that impact range from explosive is much bigger now but it only affects helldivers, not enemies
>>495464390Honestly I can't even complain that much, they didn't piss away reinforces the whole time, and everyone said gg what a close one afterwards, it just pisses me off that they made everything so needlessly difficult
>>495446431>mechCompletely useless against bots especially in difficulty 10. Against bugs you can have fun with them.
>imber has 7000 idiots who do not understand how defenses and attack origins workThis whole galactic war shit creates so much interplayer friction.
>>495464389I wouldn't say 3-4 shots per kill (or 1 shot if you hit the side rockets) makes the DCS "suck" at taking out striders.
>>495464389I don't find chickens to be much of a problem. So many support weapons cuck them to hell now. Nearly all chickens on my screen instantly get pulverized by a nearby RG, AMR, or one of the five other supports that can wipe out a chicken in a millisecond. Sure having a crossbow for them is nice but on the other hand DCS can kill devs by the dozen from +100m away it's utterly amazing to do. Also you can always use it to pop a rocket pod on a chicken strider, it does bug out and not explode sometimes but works often enough in a clutch.
>>495464887>the flinch recovery out of a stimHeavy devastator sends his regards
>>495465081>or 1 shot if you hit the side rocketsidk how this shit is supposed to work but it's a fucking casinoyou win like 1 time out of 10, other 9 times you will destroy rocket launchers and nothing happens
>>495465054Maybe they just like playing on the fire planet? We're going to liberate Claorell in 6-7 hours anyways, let em have their fun.
>>495465279need like a hundred of these guys on d10 desu. They're the perfect mid-range chaff enemy. Just strong enough to pose a threat, but just dumb enough to be cut down in swaths.

>>495465295>1 time out of 10nonsense its more like 50:50
>>495465295you have to aim for the rockets dumbass, stop hitting the rack. it has less hp than the rockets.
>>495465460I just stick close to my teammates when they're around and spam endless plasma punisher shots at them. They can't do shit
>>495465458>Maybe they just like playing on the fire planet
>>495465460Instructions unclearDeploying 10,000 shield devastators who continue shooting at you when staggered (the stagger animation will also make their shields block their heads)
>>495465160>DCS can kill devs by the dozen from +100m awayI don't understand why do you pretend xbow doesn't do the same thing? It deals AOE damage and when you shoot a group of devs you damage all of themif you can't hit at 100m with xbow it's a skill issueyou don't need to hit a weakpoint because it 2shots them anyway.actually CS loses this comparison because of stupid sway desync, when serverside sway mistmatches clientside sway and your bullets are always off by few cm at long ranges, making hitting heavy devs weakpoints very hard. It can take like 6 bullets until it finally gets past the shield and hits it's head at 100m. Meanwhile xbow will take a heavy dev out in 2 shots just like any other dev, or a group in a magazine.
>Only lobby that appears on Claorell is privateNig gameNog general

>>495465983exactly my experience with CS on botsexcept I don't miss all my shots lmao
>>495465856>Refreshes>Game session is no longer available
>>495465460Normal devs are challenging? I can literally stunlock them as they burn to death on the Cookout. Heavy devs really are the only devastator that is threatening and that's because the shield can potentially block all the pellets when blasting at them.
>still waiting for cryo
>>495466065I'm a casual ;)
>>495465983If you're using CS just shoot the legs, it kills them way easier, shooting the rockets is only best if you have no other choice
>>495465843xbow has a pretty slow RoF. DCS is a rapid headshot device. I see xbow's edge in utility, not killing power. DCS is gonna do so much better for raising your kill count and saving the butts of your mates.

>>495467832Only problem with shooting the spine of a dropship is that you often hit one of the bots hanging off it and only kill that and not the ship.

>>495461593for bots dif 10 I use RR with plasma punisher, walking barrage, smoke orbital, and smoke eagle. I run with my battle buddy who does MG43(which is great against scout striders), shield emplacement, eagle strafing run, and gatling barrage. I do really well by myself when im separated, scout striders suck but not that much, it takes 5 shots to the legs or underbelly to kill it, but I like plasma punisher because it causes heavy stagger to devestators, and against heavy devestators it causes them to expose themselves from their shields and my battle buddy can follow up easily and quickly for easy kills with his MG 43
Those 10k players on Imber came from Pandion, didn't they?
>>495447925Better question: When are we getting more simply black-and-yellow armor?
>>495469208The only good thing is those retards will be moved somewhere else where they might hopefully be actually useful. Either that, or they'll go back to Pandion. But at least Joel's throwing those retards a bone and has reduced the decay to -2% on that foggy shithole now. That said, those niggers wasted not just this MO but the last one on Pandion doing fuck all until Joel tweaked the decay.
>>495469258seriously that would've been the play where all armor is black and yellow and you could paypiggy for shaders to change the colors
>>495466372My commando takes 1 to the eye and doesnt need cuckpack
>>495465983I hate this shit so much. I have the best luck using laser weapons but you still need to hold it on them to make them explode.
>>495469570>Joel's throwing those retards a bone and has reduced the decay to -2% on that foggy shithole nowFunniest scenario would be that they get halfway to liberating it and he puts it up to 5%
