JEB! Edition>Previous>>495471502>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 17: 1.001.100 Patch https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/553850/view/7147864422081646859Sept 18: 1.001.101 Hotfix https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/553850/view/4679892274002466936Sept 19: Chemical Agents https://blog.playstation.com/2024/09/12/helldivers-2-the-chemical-agents-warbond-launches-sept-19/>CURRENT WARBONDSept 19: Chemical Agents https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fnHr4URSXis
>>495537851>Cool, I've been running a lot of missions trying out the "dead" stratagems now and I've been finding out that most stuff actually works pretty well now.Most of the stuff was already viable again even before this huge overhaul. I mean, yeah, the overhaul helped things but going so far as to say that things weren't viable was just a mental barrier for people.

MG has been further powercrept out of competition desu. Doesn't really do anything particularly well.They should at least reduce it's recoil by 75% while prone because of the bipod. Then you could maybe use it easier at long range. idk

>>495538271Idk, it's reasonable to expect all that meat that was thrown at the planet would end up as gains in the end.

>>495538589It is kind of criminal that you can't actually use the bipod on the damn thing despite it being out and deployed all the time. Maybe the engine can't support it.
>>495538271It actually makes sense to have resistance falters after nonstop assaults
>>495538271The galactic war sim sucks and is probably the most disappointing part of the game

>>495539251That's cause it is designed with fucking live service in mind.Can you imgine how fun it would be if you could play this game like Battlefront 2/Empire at war fps combat mission with strategy planet/fleet/armory management, perhaps with some minimal elements from hoi or stellaris?
>>495539102The engine doesn't have to support it retard that's what the bipod is for
>>495538589It's kind of weird that they just HAD to implement the HMG at all, right? I mean, I like the HMG as is and since its launch, it's just that the generic MG only has a bigger magazine than HMG and penetrates more than the stalwart, so why bother to generalize with it when specialists just do it better?I think they should make the stalwart a primary (nerfing the damage of course), and have the MG not need to reload at all by use of a belt-fed backpack or something, just a whole lot of low powered dakka for chaff clearing. Then the HMG shines as the version that deals with heavies but needs to reload.
What are his words of wisdom?
They should let us carry objectives in both hands so that one person can properly and solely be delegated to carrying the objective
Was looking through my screenshots and found this. Man these missions were such bullshit when they launched. You have 4 minutes to win before the tide becomes overwhelming and unceasing. I think it was also dropping factories on us too.
>>495541816I wish you could carry SEAF artillery warheads around under one arm like you can with objectives. Also wish they worked like hellbombs and would go off if they take damage. I want to be able carry a nuke around with me.
>>495542051They were still bullshit when they were removed. I wonder how they would fare now that AT has been buffed and you can actually reliably kill shit.Also, it's funny that despite you being tied to the evacuation site for the entirety of the mission, they somehow thought that putting POIs way far away from the complex would be a good idea. Yeah, sure, let's risk failing the mission just so we can possibly get five more Rare Samples out of the deal.
dead game.

>>495541770Diver running infront of tank gets tired.Diver running behind tank gets exhausted.
running around on discount hellmire with inflammable armor is really fun, screaming endlessly and your teammates have no choice but to endure it
>>495542397They were fine at lower difficulty and a good source of samples. Bot ones were bullshit at higher difficulty because they’d destroy all the cover on the map and just annihilate you. By the end you were kiting like 50 chainsaw guys and 3 hulks while 20 ranged guys just ragdolled you over an open field full of shallow craters.

>>495539251It was clearly never intended to be more than some light RP fluff for the devs to GM behind the scenes, and not a system they expected players to take as seriously as they do. That's why the rewards are mostly inconsequential and the results never make much of an impact.They over-hyped it, maybe, but this is mostly just typical spergy gamer autism.

>AC no longer ricochets into fabs>takes 5-6 shots to kill turrets to the heat sink from 3 shots before >regular striders don't spawn anymore so it can take anywhere from 3 to 5 shots to down a rocket strider when it used to take 2 (and 1 before they gave the rider explosive resist)It's unironically a better bug weapon now. Somebody on the dev team must be upset that they can't directly nerf it since it's Pile's favorite weapon.
>>495546807>AC no longer ricochets into fabsReally? Why would they change that?
>>495546807Yeah, the AC doesn't feel good to use anymore, you're unironically better off with the Quasar
>>495546807Good, I have autocucks fatigue.
>>495546985I assume it's some side effect of changing fab health so you can shoot them till they die.
Another victory for the white side of history.
>>495546807yeah alexus tried hard enough to nerf ACbut it's still KING of versatility, even RR cucks trying to cope with killing dropships (they shot only 3/39 of them)
>>495546985doesnt realy matter since you just hit at the bottom of the vent and kill it 1 hit, from a wider angle of aproach than before i might add.
>>495546985>>495547480Correct, it's because the round explodes and deals damage to the general health pool of the fabricator upon hitting the flap now, instead of bouncing off and ricocheting deeper into the building.
Autochaddons still close bug holes, we OWN you AMR cucks!

>>495547697>ACtranny taking a swing at the RR kingsHow many shots does it take the kill a Stridor with the AC, little fella?
>trying to blow up fabs with AC when you could just stick a Thermite onto itI do have to admit though, Recoilless and EAT being able to blow them up in one shot is stupidly satisfying. Clearing bot outposts is an entirely new ball game now that you just need line of sight on them like Shrieker Nests and Spore Spewers.
>>495547976>versatilityin what?
>>495547976>>495548369>rrcucks before nerf
>>495547697>ACtranny still thinking he's king in a post September 17 patchSorry, but RRchads OWN bot lobbies now. Nobody wants to waste 5 shots to kill a hulk.
>>495548410You only get 3 thermites though, 5 with engineering armor, not going to waste them on busting fabs when the eagle airstrike exist.
AC not ricocheting into fabs is such a non-issue I'm amazed people are mad about it. Just shoot the vent straight on and you still pop them in one shot.
tried the lib pen on bots and am pleasantly surprised, it's quite nice to use.I got weak litle arms so the Adjucator kicks a bit to much for my liking but the lib pen seems to be designed for lean divers with it's low recoil and femine white paintjob.
>>495548716>5 shotsshitter detected, still 2 shots to the eye slit to kill them if you can actually aim"lololol, I don't even need to aim because I'm retarded, my RR will one shot hulks anywhere on it's body"crutch

>>495548924take the DCS pill, you can shoot down gunships in half a mag

>>495547846Ah. Well how many AC rounds does it take to kill a fabricator?
>ACfags desperately trying to cling on to their title as best support weapon
>>495549436Way more than what is reasonable.
>>495549396It is a waste of a stratagem, just bring the primary flamethrower and an actual usefull support weapon or stratagem.
>>495549487Lol. I wouldn't expect anything less. I haven't had a chance to play since before the update dropped so these tips are nice at least.

>>495550060unironically skill issue
Did the Orbital Precision Strike get nerfed? I've had several tanks survive direct hits from it.
>>495549957>"my point-n-click "I WIN!" button isn't a crutch acskually"lamo, keep coping shitter, learn2aim
>>495550319No, tanks got buffed
As far as combat goes AC is stronger and more fun than it's ever been. It's no longer ideal for BTFOing structures. It became awful against annihilator turrets. Not the tanks themselves, just the base-mounted versions. But that's okay. I love my AC for melting factory strider faces and onetapping hive guards. Just gonna run EAT or Commando along for those godforsaken turrets.>>495550060Still the best weapon against factory striders unless you wanna count RR noob tube.
guise?SPEAR is good now?
>>495550319Tanks and ops got buffed. Surviving direct hits is swede code. 3500 damage to 3000 health tank.
>>495550276>>495550462AC sissies on lethal doses of copeium.
>>495550567good in terms of raw damage (4000), but it got shit on all over by the RR as of late
>>495550567Spear is fine but suffers from not having a dumbfire mode. RR does like 80% of Spear's damage and can more easily headshot BTs, striders, etc than Spear can.
>>495550567too ammo hungry
>AC goes from "IT'S BEST AGAINST BOTH FACTIONS!! It's so easy!!" to "IT TAKES SKILL!! JUST GET GUD!!"Hilarious. Meanwhile us flamethrower chads will be happy with having fun against one faction and dying miserably against the other.
>>495550567Spear was good, now it's better but overshadowed by other AT.
>>495550567always has beenbut sadly RR overshadow spear, but it's more balance issue
>>495550360>"HA! how about you learn to aim shitt-">*gets flinched*>"AIIIEEEEEE THAT WAS MY LAST ROUND!!! RRCHAD SAVE ME-ACK!"So are you going to keep going with the aim cope or are you going to make up a new one on the spot? I don't know about you, but if I want something dead I want it dead fast.
>>495549748I'd take your opinion more seriously if you weren't so obviously ESL
>autocannon players will call the recoilless rifle the shitter weapon when pre-buff patch the ac was considered the baby weapon
>AC>RRNah i will stick to quasar cannon.
>>495551013regardless of your side in the ACsissy wars it's undeniable that RR is overtuned and trivializes a great deal of situations, especially when team reloaded
>>495551125Good.
>>495550720They had to super buff everything just so people could understand the value of a support weapon that needs a backpack and SHOULD BE unable to kill armored targets, lmao
ACbros...we must come to terms...our reign has come an end...t. fellow AC user
>>495550319OPS got buffed, but only if you directly it an enemy with the projectile (meaning they have to be right on top of the beacon). Big enemy HP got super buffed across the board, so if they eat only the explosion they're not really going to feel it.Basically, you have to actually be "precise" with Orbital Precision Strike in order to kill big enemies with it. No more just landing the toss a few feet away and scoring a kill.>>495550567It does damage out the ass, but except against Bile Titans and Factory Striders a lot of it is gross overkill. Recoilless also does overkill but not as much, and has more ammo and a faster reload, so it's more flexible, and Recoilless's ability to manually aim still lets you one-shot the big enemies if you're good at aiming. Hell, with how good AT is now I would call it a waste to use Spear shots on Gunships, and it's unfortunately still useless against Dropships since the lock-on time means you won't get a shot off before they enter hover mode.
I might be wrong but from my experience so far RR doesn't 1 hit the normal tank cannons from the front or side in 1 hit, UNLESS you dive forward.So is the momentum trick still a thing or is there something else at play here?
>>495551529It does from the side if you shoot the rear half. The front and side-front will need 2.
>>495549487it literally takes one shot. cant tell if bait or retarded
I genuinely get a bit of a tear in my eyes listening to the extract music brosThat theme is just absolute genius composition. The way the drums kick off and it has that like, Snake Eater, James Bond kinda groove, like you four dumbfucks are getting all cocky that you think you finished the mission and you're about to leave, but then it gets gradually more intense and the swagger is replaced by tension and desperation as shit hits thefan and you realise you still gotta make it out alive. It so perfectly captures the gameplay as well as the sense of overconfident bravado and brainwashed militarism, but then there's the swell of legitimate and sincere fucking GLORY at the end. You actually did make it and should be genuinely proud, despite the subtext. It's beautiful.The composer better win an award man.
>600+ kills in a solo D6 bot missionwhat is wrong with this difficulty
>>495552278Total clanker death
ACucks in this thread complaining that other weapons are good in their own way now, too. you faggots got a buff too, quit bitching.
>>495552278>D6Haven't played anything lower than 9 in months. What are you facing there to get that many kills? Like a billion comissars?
>>495551125It's okay to have options that trivialize part of the game.Firstly because one-shooting BT and Chargers doesn't stop Stalkers and Hunters to try and rape your faceSecondly, because if you don't pick it, you still have plenty of good options. You don't have to gimp yourself if you don't pick the OP weapon
>>495550276How does skill come into play when it's purely a numbers change?
>>495551125Only thing it's overtuned for is one-shotting dropship with any hit.If it doesn't one-shot heavies (apart factory strider since those are rare enough that a two-shot is fine), it simply isn't worth using with how limited ammo is and how long the stationary reload is.
>>495552146He's one of the good ones.
>>495552810Shoot chicken legs.Shoot hulk eyes.Shoot gunship thrusters.Explode in Fabricators openings.Fuck Bitches.Fuck Bitches.Snort cocaine.Shoot the fabricator miniguns then the eyeShoot anything tankier in the assIf you cannot do this, you suffer from skill issue.
>>495544650I wanna use it but it keeps team killing, and my teammates destroy it on purpose cause they sperg out about it potentially killing them
>>495552146>doesnt even have different tracks based on faction and difficulty like the first game didHe doesnt deserve shit
>>495552602pretty muchit was a d6 orbital cannon mission on Vog-Sojoth (so no cover whatsoever, every bot can see you across the map except in a blizzard) and it was just nonstop patrols spawning all around me from beginning to end and of course especially at the end after the objectives were done, there was 2 hulks on the field at any given timeevery bot drop dropped 3 to 4 devastators, 3 chickens and the rest of the ship was just all commissars and MG raiders with a hulk every 2 drops or sothere was a detector tower at one point as well padding the kill count that my OPS missed somehowthe endgame patrols were scary as I was literally on a beach fighting for my life and then I turn around to find about 30 commissars and MG raiders marching out of the fucking ocean, like fishes evolving to walk on land
>player leaves>now no one can fill and I have to abandon the operation to have a team againguess im waiting for another >shit patch > "we hear you guys!" > good patch cycle for the fucking matchmaking to work properly

>>495553842These guys are my favorite to fight now. The missile depletion shits cool, and dodging their rockets is fun. I wish they did more telegraphed attacks and shit with other bots. I noticed the annihilator tanks will do this sweep animation periodically so you can actually get close to them.

>>495553967what about Z cape?
>>495553989Jump distance, knock back, honestly something resource wise would be nice like a Regen could be nice.Honestly Id like dark matter height and distance, double jumps and something like a 12 second cooldown

>>495552146i also cry a little when hearing successful extract theme its so good
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wmhAFDK-srE
>>495554107It has 2 fucking tracks per faction, main theme, login theme and extract theme.This game needs more fucking music. And not just 2 more tracks to squids.
>>495553967Already are giga gay capes that pair only wel with the gimpsuit medic armors.
they should rename the Thermite Grenade to Satchel Charge since all it does is stick to the target and then explode for a fucktillion damage now
>>495552146The best part is how dynamic it is.If the game shits out BTs or Factory striders, the music has a specific cue for that. If there's nothing, the music calms down. If people are dying, the music accounts for that as well.The composer apparently also made music for Destiny 2 which had a very dynamic soundtrack and I absolutely loved the shit out of that game's OST just the same, I'm so glad they picked him for this game.
>>495554605You're giving me flashbacks, anon
>>495554605Satchel charge won't stick but will have AOE and huge damage, fuck off furry faggot
>>495538589yeah the bipods not working is a huge drag. I hope they implement that in a future patch: slightly better handling and significantly reduced recoil when firing the bipod MGs prone.and also the Autocannon should knock you over and require prone firing lol but I probably shouldn't get carried away

Need an exosqueleton stratagem that makes you faster/stronger but you don't get a backpack, or something like that.
>>495557743>>495557847Maybe he thought we wanted a portable eagle strafe GAU and not the handheld miniguns?Imo, an MMG stuck on max rpm, but with a backpack and 500-600 rounds sounds like it would be super fun.Hell introduce a light minigun too, that is a stalwart with a backpack and 1k rounds.The drawback being that you can only walk when shooting that thing (walk does sever recoil handicaps) and no ads as well as a 2 second windup.

The quasar should have a battery backpack that is required to be worn for you to fire. Also add an unsafe for it that lets you fire without waiting for the cooldown but with a chance that your battery backpack explodes

I am now making a list of bad players as well. Holy shit this is miserable.
>>495561485I guess an option would be to have the minigun drop down with 0 ammo, and once you put the backpack on you can "reload" to get your ~500 shots. I mean, that's how you'd be reloading it once dry and picking up ammo later.Otherwise they'd need to revamp some mechanics.
>>495561658what about the fire hellpod booster?
>>495561836Anyone who takes that one gets immediately ejected off the Super Destroyer.
>>495561817Each shot is its own magazine. Reload time is so short it has the desired RoF. No reload animation.There's way's around it. I dunno what's the best approach since the game's programmed on a swedejank engine.
>>495562012>fire hellpods users get automatically redirected from the mission objective to the nearest sun
>>495561747I wish I could put a drum magazine on all the liberators.
>>495562012i mean you are not wrong
I got the zyklon title but I can't put it on, what's that about?
>>495562150You'd still need a "reload" of sorts once you are dry (belt empty), and get new ammo from any box (need to feed the new belt).

>>495564725Dont bother with them since they run out of ammo so quickly and you only get two of them per mission. If there is a fuckload of big enemies that merit a mech, I would rather bring an HMG emplacement since you get it back so quickly and dont have a limited amount of them.
low quality bait
>>495564725I still like them, I just wish they would allow you to take more than 1 on your loadouts, I would gladly take 2 very often.They say it's because of technical issues and I'm inclined to believe them on this particular bullshit, but it's still sad that we can't.

>495558131>>495564383Ok so after analysis I think I have an idea on what happened. You threw all your thermites at the end, and the one alpha warrior that you chucked one at at around 00:05 immediately used its burrow ability to teleport behind you, with your thermite still lodged in it's carapace.
How often do you have to verify the integrity of the game files? It seems every other match I get the matchmaking bug.

Pandion is like the worst planet imaginable, are bugfags mental? Gigafog + littered with tiny little faggot trees that don't help you at all but obscure enemies and limit your movement.why the hell
is there a way to turn off the profanity filter?
Vatocanon doesn't 2-shot Hulk eyes enaymore? i feet it has gotten worse since the last "buff" patch.
>>495567158The worst part is, when it's liberated, it'll be a defense campaign likely tied to an MO. Then we get to do it all over again.
>>495567321what profanity filter?
okay guys hear me out this is how to make the SMGs viable >buff ballistic shield>"nerf" Crossbow and Pummeler by making them two-handed and then buffing them>add off-hand sword support weapon so that one-handedness is useful on both fronts instead of only bots>also give them drum magazines because fuck it why not, plenty of irl SMGs had drum mags
>>495567826It's a good thing that dude is blind, otherwise he'd get an aneurysm when stepping onto the super destroyer.
>>495567514It's still not in a bad spot, IMO. It always felt more like a medium enemy killer rather than an AT option. Obviously, there's some utility lost in being worse at killing heavies, but she still fucks on devestators, striders, commanders, spewers, and grouped light units. With the improved AT, the autocannon can take a backseat against heavies and broaden its priorities against high-volume armored targets.Something's gotta take a hit when you massively increase AT's potency, so a weapon that's only situationally good against heavies is an acceptable sacrifice.
Alright what planet should I be fighting on
>>495568007With how strong CB is it could easily be turned into 2handed without any buffs and still be fucking top tier.
>>495568158Pandion is getting the big push right now. None of us like it, but the writhing mass of retards on that planet is finally strong enough to overcome the unreasonably high decay rate.
>>495568007Off-hand sword support weapon seems badass, but not really useful when you consider that one of the best strengths in one-handed weapons is the fact you can sprint and shoot backwards without stopping at all. Why bother using melee when you're super mobile?I think instead one handed weapons, and only them, shoud be accurate while using Jetpacks. To super emphasize their mobility.
>>495568007An American needs to go explain to the Swedes what an SMG is. It doesn't mean "slower firing and bigger bullets than assault rifles"
I love the returning normies who still want to use the incel breaker and can't aim for shit so set me on fire over and over. I've started taking the fire armor with no fire stratagems just to avoid being tk'd by orbital napalms and such.
>>495568353Joel caved and set the regen to 1.5% down from 3%. That's the only reason the bug chasers are making any progress
>>495568583Just use extra padding armor instead.
>>495568183This. Honestly feels overtuned. The fact that the Eruptor can't hang with it after nearly being as good as it used to be tells me one of two things. >onethey overcorrected from it being total shit and it's too good now>twoThe Eruptor was never actually that good and needs a little more to make it viable in the wake of the new balance state
>>495568353>None of us like itPlaying on Pandion even with all the buffs has been the least fun experience I've had on this game. I cant fucking wait for this shithole to be liberated so people can play on literally any other planet. Hell, I'd rather play on Hellmire
show me your diver drip, lads
>>495568804Idk, the eruptor is just a slower version of the CB, just with less anti armor aoe. Both are top tier as they are. Nothing else comes close to their utility when there is a bajillion mediums all over. Tried using JAR, PP or Purifier and they feel miserable per shot compared to what Eruptor or CB do when you are swarmed. Only GL is better at that role.

>>495569305Having a hard time figuring that out since I die in 1-2 hits to everything in the armor I liked. On bots it hasn't changed at least, I just like the full Enforcer set with the default black cape, simple and sharp. On bugs I used to run Juggernaut + steel trooper helmet a lot, might have to go back to it again but I can't swap off medium extra padding for bugs anymore.
>>495569305I'm level 18 and I've yet to see any armor I want to use aside from the default 150 medium armor, the drip is underwhelming

>>495569837>>495570079It had airburst or something shrapnel back then absolutely nutty. It's not bad now, but it's not amazing. Crossbow is just the king gun. Quiet, good ROF, clean scope, easy to aim, BEEG damage. Wreckss bugs and bots equally. I will enjoy it while I can.

The devs should really add some single mission operations in the high difficulty. Not everyone can commit to 3 hours without interruption. This is why the planets are being lost.

>>495571691You don't have to complete the entire operation in one go. It will resume where you left off the next time you log in.
>>495571159I don't really run the same loadout on both factionsAt first I was taking dagger on bots to save ammo when dealing with grunts, but there are so few grunts at d10 I barely get to use it. Crisper can deal with berserkers but xbow is still better for that. So I started bringing stim pistol just cause I can.On bugs I don't run crossbow at all, but if I did, I would bring crisper or redeemer.Overall for universal loadout I would suggest crisper. In a pinch it can kill a hulk. It's not great for bugs but bugs are easy and you don't need good weapons to deal with them.

Ever since the brap warbond dropped, I have been in the cloud 70% of the time while engaging bugs. The blind effect lets you run circles around all of them. It's fucking great.

>>495577518legionaire.... the ability to throw strats farther is so nice. I spent the first 100 levels using engineer, but my eyes have been opened and legionaire is the way. i think it also has limb health that's greater than the health booster

>>495583108Mobility is the most important thing. Wear light light armour and take the sprint booster on every mission as a basic requirement, then chose the rest of your gear from there. Pick weapons that are useful close range and don't have long reloads, like the Breaker. Cover isn't really important except against specific enemies but the bubble shield will stop you getting stunlocked in melee so it's still very valuable.Your loadout wants to favour horde clearing, things like cluster strike, napalm, etc, as long as you have at least one support weapon or strat for taking out heavies quickly. Counter-intuitively, anti-tank is more useful against bugs than bots, because there's really not that many medium tier armoured enemies, it's just hordes of squishy small bugs that distract you and make the big guys difficult to deal with. Unlearn the habit of turtling behind cover and sniping, get into the habit of running around kiting and throwing strats to thin the herd. Good luck Helldiver.

>>495583108Your biggest threat is getting surrounded, manage your distance if you're not running a shotgun.You can reasonably fight back against a bug breach at any difficulty with orbitals and stuff to clear the heavies if you need to.There are plenty of ways to close bugholes, popular choices are the exploding crossbow, grenade pistol, airstrike and even the 500kg. Orbital 120mm/380mm can be used but aren't popular because they don't clear that well and have higher teamkill potential. Napalm orbital is very popular right now for clearing large nests of enemies, certain objectives, or covering breaches.Stalker nests are high priority if you find one or notice a stalker

I gave the change a chance but after playing all weekend and Friday night, I really don't like the changes to helldiver resistances and enemy damage on bugs. It's not noticeable on bots, if you're gonna die over there you're gonna die regardless, but with the nonexistent sound design on bugs I'm constantly getting sneaked up on and 2-shot in 100 AR medium armor all the time. I really hate it and I hope they change it back. It doesn't feel like there's any difference between 50-100 AR, you're 2-shot regardless, and if you use heavy armor, the slow mobility is too much of a hazard as well, which only leaves extra padding medium as the best armor, and I'm really tired of such a boring passive being so meta.
Didn't HD1 have countless "wars" that would go from start to finish in just a couple months? Wasn't it possible to actually lose? With this game it feels like nothing important has happened for a while now, sure we get "defend le planets" type bullshit (like the current MO) but what is the endgame? It doesn't feel like there are truly any stakes. The automatons have been 1 sector away from super earth for like 2 months. Where is the MO that says "holy shit get to these planets or we literally all fucking die"? Where are the squids? Whenever we "fail" a major order its just like "ah geez I guess we get no medals, on to the next one" and nothing really happens. Are we just waiting around for the swedes to fix the game before we get any more story related stuff?

SUPER COOL THAT THE SWAMP MAPS WILL EAT EAGLE STRATAGEMS SO THEY DO NOTHING
>>495592027I hear "getting snuck up on" and "not hearing sounds" as an issue on a lot of games I play, how hard is it to just give a quick look around? Or this an actual issue or just something people fall back onto as an excuse? I feel like its just an excuse used by people with zero situational awareness
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHSTOP JUMPING ON ME STOP JUMPING ON ME STOP JUMPING ON ME STOP JUMPING ON ME
>>495592027Mostly skill issue. Yeah sometimes you get ganked by some silent bugs, but the devs are working on that. Sometimes bugs tweak out and do some sicks combo that are bullshit.But overall, its way better that way. If we were tankier the game would REALLY be too fucking easy. Right now with a good squad you can pretty much fuck around at level 10, and outside of the super nest, not have too much problems, if any.
>>495592439think they're slow playing it until we get THE SQUID as their entire road map was likely re-done internally (assuming they have one) after their retarded amount of success.
>>495592706it takes less than 2 seconds for a charger or heavy dev to spawn behind you and kill you in one attackyou can't look around every second
>>495592706>how hard is it to just give a quick look around?What makes you think I'm not doing that already?
diff 10 is actually super duper cozy, don't tell the shitters this tho
can't believe HMG emplacement is now le good on bugs
>>495592772>but the devs are working on thatSource?>Right now with a good squad you can pretty much fuck around at level 10How is this different than before? The game has always been easy with a good, coordinated squad.
>>495593089It has always been good on bugs, you know this just now?
>>495592706sometimes you just forget to check the map every 5 seconds. I think it usually happens when a patrol spawning right around the corner coincides with you not checking the map because you were distracted by something or other. And depending on the planet you're on, as well as how frequently you check, that's more likely to happen. It happens to everyone, but the newer you are the more often it will happen which can make it feel unfair. I personally find it to be one of the more annoying things about the game and I've been playing pretty consistently since launch.
>>495592027100 armor does feel shit while 150 feels pretty comfy. I've been trying heavy armor but the speed is a big deal against bugs.
>>495592975>>495592990How is it spawning behind you like that within danger range and no notable sound or effect, or just something giving it away in your sight ? Im really not trying to flame or anything, just trying to understand
>>495593194On what, D1? Before the update you would immediately need to abandon the cuckemplacement any time a charger or bile titan spawned, which was always.
>>495592738just shoot them
>>495592706>no rear view mirrors.do infantry really?
>>495590679crazy axdent
>>495592027Give the servo assisted armors a shot.The extra limb health helps more than you'd think. Plus you'll be a servochad and can stratmog throwlets.
>>495593313it just does
>>495593154Literally from the patch note.
>>495593313Have you never seen someone post a webm of them turning around and seeing an entire patrol spawn in behind them 50 feet away?
>>495593237take the white wolf medium padded pill. 150 armor with medium movespeed is kino.
>>495592706When you're dealing with an active threat in one direction it's not reasonable to expect you to be constantly spinning around to make sure you're not about to be crept up on by almost completely silent giant enemiesIt's just massively counterintuitive that a fucking tank can sneak up on you, even if there is a firefight going on. You'd be able to hear that shit coming irl and it's expectation-defying and immersion-breaking that you can't in the game
>>495593580>large unitsI hope that includes alpha commanders, but ALL units need to be included in that regardless.
>>495569305chuds will rise
>>495593689white wolf? isn't there the good ol' default medium padded armor?
>>495593593Yeah but I never see the 30 seconds before that webm where the player might've just been staring forward not looking around for that entire time. I always look around so the only way something can be within murdering distance of me is if they actually spawn 5 feet behind me, not spawn 50ft away and walk up on me>>495593731See thats different, your attention is stuck in one direction you kind of always have to be aware of that risk that some little bastard is right behind you going to shank your kidneys, it sucks for sure but a risk for keeping your attention in one direction. The scenario Im having trouble understanding are those people who goof off looking in one direction but never look around and are surprised when that things behind them exist.
why should bugs have """"audio cues""""". If I was a bug I'd try to be as silent as possiblewatch your back nigger
If you want to use the flamethrower stratagem, is there literally any reason not to just take the torcher and something like a stalwart? (assuming you're not a poorfag)
I love this game.
>>495569305It's a shame that it's basically nonviable now, considering I die in 1-2 hits from everything.
Dog breath, more like dog shit.So the only good item in the warbond is the gas grenade...
>>495593892yes, but white wolf makes you stand out like a sore thumb and be less likely to be oneshot by a teamie
>>495593858Is this bonus any good now that you die so fast?>>495594109Also noticed very cool lighting around Pandion
>>495594006Look, I've been playing more competitive games than this for years and it's ingrained into me at this point to be extremely aware of what's behind me and my minimap. When shit hits the fan, you can't check it every 5 seconds and it's dumb to expect one to do that. It's not dumb to expect sound cues and sound design to provide points at which you can react to something you can't see yet. Can we agree on that?
>>495591286why was this deletedI'm scared now
>>495594006Anon the real issue isn't "some little bastard" sneaking up on you it's that enemies the size of fucking houses don't betray their presence in any way unless you're looking right at them or when they're already on top of you
>>495594109I want to love it but there's just too much random bullshit that leads to prolonged frustration

>>495594276>been playing more competitive games than this for yearsMe too, ill agree things should have sound ques if they aren't, I remember during my times in apex people would complain about not hearing anything and sometimes getting snuck up on (never encountered it myself). And you know what I don't know what particular situation you've encountered where sound was an issue or enemies spawning literally within 5 feet of someones back, if that is whats happening then yeah that should be changed. But in my experience anytime something murdered me from behind it was warranted because I didn't look at my back or took the risk to keep my attention elsewhere.One thing I have come across was walking chargers, they didn't charge but would walk up on me and try to attack but even then I would often at least catch them sneaking up behind me
>>495592439the campaigns do have win/lose conditions occasionally but for the most part they're just a LARP, the devs have cheated multiple times to get the outcomes they want. after everyone started quitting in protest and they were doing this invasion arc and no one was defending anything anymore because everyone quit playing lol
>>495557396Uoh you retard.
>>495592706nigga pandion has a fog that makes london look like clear skies
>>495594923The biggest issue I have isn't with chargers, it's actually hunters. What frustrates me is even if you do notice them before they hit you, their tongue attack is long enough to where you still get hit despite diving, and now their swipe/tongue takes out at least 50% of your HP so if you get hit by the followup (you will most of the time), you're dead if you don't have more than 100 AR.
>>495592671when the fuck are we getting ground vehicles? they don't even need weapons on them, just give me a fucking ATV or something, shit
>>495592706The thing is, you do hear enemies moving all the time. Bots have the marching chant and the individual Troopers chatter while Berserkers have that droning whine as they chase you down, while bugs will chirp constantly while patrolling. Chargers and Hulks never patrol alone, the only time you might find them silently sitting around is at POIs. And, yeah, there's this thing called a fucking map that you can access by pressing a single button and it immediately shows you all nearby enemies.They do kind of have a point though, big enemies should have very audible footsteps that immediately clue you in if they're anywhere within like 20 meters of you. Tank engines should be audible from about as far away. The game isn't really unbalanced because they don't make footstep noises, but it would be a nice little thing that everyone would appreciate.
>>495592706>a quick look around>in 1m visibility fog

>>495595269London isn't all that foggy these days, that image is tied to Victorian era or earlier when the whole city was smogged up like hell by coal-based industrial pollution. Sure you still get the occasional pea-souper but it's nothing as unique as its legendary reputation suggests.

>>495595667Feels like it'll be a mission/objective/event specific stratagem.
>>495595912It's a videogame.
>>495595579I have never seen a Bile Titan appear out of thin air, and refuse to believe it happens. Either you spot it randomly traipsing around the map from 200+ meters away, or it digs itself out of a Bug Breach, which you should immediately be ready for because it's a fucking Bug Breach.

>>495596236I dont watch gay porn so idk. I play this because I want to get a fake sensation of violence and war. If I wanted to play something fair I'd play chess
>>495596440Idk what sonar is or doesI don't use shadowplay because it adds inputlag to gamesSteam recording doesn't and it's built in steam overlay, so I started using it
>>495593463how does that even kill me

>anons still don't remember to take the steam I'd out of lobby links>tfw have a spreadsheet of everyone who has hosted's profiles
>>495596906They said large enemies, so probably only Chargers and Commanders? Funny enough, Hunters and Stalkers are currently the noisiest bugs.
>>495597163>anons still don't remember to take their steam ID out of lobby links>tfw have a spreadsheet of every host's profilesFTFY ESL
>>495574053this is just some shitty mod.
>>495596721sonar is an audio program that does audio profiles for different games, but it also has another game footage capture feature. it has auto capture and you can set a hotkey.
>>495597163Oh no, my... username... that you can already get by joining one anyways...
>>495597214I saw someone mention hunters in that chain so I just thought about that.Do chargers really not have audible footsteps? I think it just gets drown out in all the chaos
>>495597228Hah. I watched that one with my RR aimed at the BT head. Waited for the bomb to drop, then for the glow to dim enough to see that the BT was still standing before blasting it.The update kinda cucked OPS and 500kg as heavy killers. But, I honestly prefer the dedicated AT supports being good at what they do over using reds for it.Tho the OPS could use a small buff now imo.
>>495583928Commandos pretty nice, you can snipe hulk eyes and break charger legs with just one. They kinda tiered enemies to like heavies, and super heavies. And it feels like a lot more support weapons do more against heavies. Commandos also pair great with other stratagems as they juuuuuust sit under kill threshold for a lot of enemies. I'm honestly glad they kept this interaction, so a lot of weaker weapons can finish off heavies.Also Leg meta still best meta.
>>495597698Chargers don't have footsteps until they charge.
They probably didn't include footstep sounds because it'd be basically all you hear when there's a bazillion enemies swarming you. Just too much of a pain in the ass to make it work right in the mix I guess.Having it for big enemies like chargers, hulks, tanks and BTs makes sense though. I mean shit most games of this style have audio cues in the music, you know when there's a smoker or hunter or boomer in L4D just because of a couple piano notes, even if you never noticed it, your brain did.
>>495595485>Host drops in on a cluster fuck and dies 4 times>Second player comes in, they are now at 2/10>They die twice and stabilise>2 more players join and they are 0/20Probably something like that i'm guessing.
>>495597925Those plants are hilariously brutal.
>>495597163>mfw someone leaks my steam username (helldivers 2 in-game name) and most recently played game on steam (helldivers 2)
They really need to shorten the pre-fire delay and recharge on the quasar now, it wasn't even a necessary nerf in the first place but now all the other weapons have been buffed it just makes that weapon feel left out. Put it back to how it was on release and it will fit in right alongside the rest now.
>>495597163>doesn't have brony avatar and animated profile background of catgirls with their tits out from those furry yiff games specifically to welcome Anons browsing your profileWhere is your soul anon

No one knows how to fight them. People keep rage quitting and losing operations. It won't get better until they dumb bots down for the retards.
>>495598072They absolutely can improve the audio for heavies. They just gave stalkers a growling audio queue now, so they could do the same for chargers and the other shitters.
>>495598072Are we all getting the same music though or is it different player to player?
>>495597925I find the idea of a bug that thinks offensive.
>>495597163>He's got my usernameIt's so fucking over for Dudeweedhitler420
RR feels like cheatingHow can quasar even compete?
>>495599531i can take ballistic shield with it and block bile spewer nut
Nothing beats the feeling of getting kicked by a pub on D10 and actually managing to beat the entire mission alone with extraction just to spite him.
>>495599858Ballistic shield should only take up an offhand slot, like briefcases and terminid egg samples. it only sheathes on your back whenever you have no backpack stratagem. otherwise, it drops
>>495598935I don't know about this game but in L4D it was per player. I would hazard a guess it's per player, there's been times I'm pretty sure I remember being in a quiet corner of the map looking for the super samples but the rest of the team was having a big fight, and I didn't get the action music. Not fully sure though.
>>495599858>Xbow + Shield + QuesoHoly memeGoing to try that later
For me, it's taking hundreds of screenshots and clips of me playing with anons, and looking back at them later pretending you were all my close friends
>>495600048literally mei have like a dozen full hdg ops recorded and i look through them sometimes when i want to feel like a chad
I really cannot wait to see all the shit the swedish beast is cooking. I hope the clan thing is cool and doesn't need a billion people to be worth it.Can't wait to see vehicles and the revamped attachment system.Of course, the looms too. But i believe, deep inside me, that they're gonna pull off a 4th faction down the line. Human rebels or whatever.
>>495590331But bugs are harder than bots.Like outside of chicken walkers, and some across the map turret shit. Bots are a lot more manageable. It's just DPS checks out the ass.If you bring the right gear you're fine. Bugs just overwhelm you with a shit load of varied enemies that require specific counters per type.
>>495545086it did 50 durable damage, not 55. It's very likely it was an unintended nerf because 35 is 23% of 150. Why is that important? because the original HMG had a 23% durable damage ratio that was later buffed to be 33%. It's possibly some old version fuckery or oversight.
>>495600270i desperately hope to god that one day we get shipborne combat alongside SEAF marines and boarding actions on illuminati space stations.
>>495600048Post lobby.
>>495600270I hope they let plasma light enemies on fire. Maybe as an upgrade or something

After bayonets, they better add melee weapons. And when we'll have melee weapons, they better add a super earth flag. Two handed, that buffs everyone around you. And you can also use it to wack bugs and bots.
>>495600858some kind of John Carpetner©'s The Thing™/Flood enemy type could be interesting
>>495600048Then why dont you post more WEBMs? You're robbing the anons who shitpost while working of content.
>>495600931I was thinking about my own little autistic group of Helldivers.
>>495600761It does amaze me how competent/hdg/ is at the game. Usually generals are full of shitters but everyone here is better than an army of quickplay randoms.
>>495592706>>495592975>>495593207>>495593436>>495593731>>495595269>>495595368>>495595430the whole sneaky bugs/situational awareness thing is truly solved by divers operating in teams of 4 with mics and hyper-frequent comm radial usage and target-marking to look out for one another. we're not meant to have eyes and ears in the back of our heads. when you get a spores condition on top of a foggy map seed/stinky charger cloud, you're pretty much blind. especially now with gas and stun being so readily available for crowd control you should always be able to coordinate good decision making and swarm management
