>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.

>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.

Here's how the SOS beacon works.
>Makes your lobby high priority for quickplay searchers

Having it turn your private lobby into a public one is fucking retarded. Anyone arguing otherwise needs to kill themselves as soon as possible.
Acting like you can't accidently the SOS beacon instead of a reinforce is you being a little nigger and should refer to previously stated commands.

Just work your way down the list. Focus on getting the Hellpod Optimization and Vitality Boosters. Then Stamina Booster. Get whatever armor, and weapons you need to unlock these. All emotes and cosmetics are secondary to achieving this goal.

Your ultimate goal with the free warbond is to get the Scorcher.

never heard anyone refer to a public match as pug before
and to answer your question, no, no sane player cares about what shit you bring to the mission unless it is firebomb hellpods (actively trolling).
you just had a control freak host who is so shit at the game he needs 3 god gamers to carry his fat ass, and you werent a god gamer so you got the boot

I think it's doable. Bugdivers are the blob so that will be done no issues. Bot front gets tricky. None of the decays or attacks are actually that bad. I think the move is to stay the course on Aesir until it's done, then move to Matar Bay. Meanwhile, forfeit the current 2 defenses, then succeed on 1 every day while taking Matar Bay.

500
Damage Impact
2000, 1500 explosion
10 inner / 25 outer

precision
3500 impact / 1000 explosion
4 inner / 12 outer

like 20 second difference cool down, 500 gives you two and a bigger radius. It's easily 500. precision has zero breakpoints it beats.

If Joel plays this like he normally does over long MOs, the defenses will get easier the further the bots push. So those last attacks will be wimpy, and we can hopefully mop up more towards the end.

one taps small bits anywhere
one taps devs on a head
something like 4 taps devs on a body (don't really know exact ttk)
3 taps chickens
can magdump gunships but you really shouldn't because it takes too much ammo and time, unless you have no other option
it really is very strong both as a sniper and as self-defense weapon because it staggers bots hard and you can hipfire anything below hulks to the death in half a mag

Defense part of this mission isn't that important, so are capturing the bug planets. Only thing that benefits us is capturing Matar Bay

We need to win 5 defenses in 6 days
FIVE
If they're all gonna be 24h defences then we'll need about 40-50% of the playerbase engaged each time to win one defence
Succeeding at two defences at once is basically impossible because it would take at least around 90% of total players online to do it
We kinda need to start racking up those defence wins ASAP to even have a chance of clearing this MO, and always defend once planet at a time if they have the same timing like this
>>
>>500174821
They're a few hours from finishing, but they still need to do it because it is the warp link to pandion, which is the warp link to gacrux. So until gacrux is done, bugfags are tied up. Which is why it's imperative for botfags to get a few defenses done early and worry about matar bay later so everyone isn't split towards the end.

Bug player here. After a couple months break I jumped from 9 to 10 diff and the game is a lot easier but I mostly stick to similar loadouts.

I think they design armor solely if you get clipped by something you don't lose enough health to need to stim.

Liberator concussive will be worthless until they remove the ridiculous push force it has. If it locked a target in place like the pummerler it would be great. But having something jerk backward between every shot makes it hard to sustain fire and makes you waste ammo.

Sometimes you will literally push something behind cover.

I think it's primarily just the range that makes it better than most of them.
Its got some solid TTK on alphas, and it can chew through chaff.
Most other stagger weapons require you to be on top of the enemy for it to work well.
Only issue with libconc is that it suffers hard against groups. But there's so many answers to that it's not even close to an issue.

Now pummeler on the other hand is a meme gun I'll never get.

Pistol is basically just a weaker grenade pistol, SMG doesn't do anything ground breaking outside of make ball shield decent, and the shotgun ....

Like AH sees the shotgun has two functions, and they're going to make it mediocre at both of them. There's no way it'll be godly, it's gonna be lib conc tier. If not worse because they fuck up balance on release.

There isn't a single weapon I couldn't make a competent build out of right now and have fun using everything in my loadout effectively.

The only thing I can think of that doesn't work well right now are mines and maybe Mechs, oh and laser orbital.

Shitters that don't know how to play the game can stick to their crutch primaries. I'm having a good time using the tools I have to make fun loadouts.

The modern gaymer thinks balance means equal effectiveness, as if making every weapon interchangeable would be more entertaining. If everything has its place in a loadout and isn't an exercise in frustration you wouldn't pick outside of a randomizer gone wrong, the game's balanced.

Give it the stripper clips and give it god tier handling and it would actually be pretty decent. Oh and maybe some useable iron sights. Peep sights don't fucking work in vidya.
Oh and fix melee range. Now it's still the same weapon but better, staying on theme/flavor.

>>500187318

Bring support weapons for your team and trade them for mechs.
Just ride mechs all game, the lack of reds or greens isn't even noticeable becouse you can't use stratagems from inside the mech anyway.

Doesn't kill alphas efficiently at all, melee doesnt one tap warrior heads without Pp, rocket striders take 3 shots to go down, and it doesn't shoot and melee berserkers.

>>
>>500188502
Bots are slow but when you are moving around then you have to fight to get a steady aim back, maybe that's called something else. I've only got 5 shots so I can't be wasting them on just hitting the body, that's a dead shot.
>>

Why do I feel like mine isn't doing fuck all? I swear it spends so much time just not shooting anything.

Also being able to accidently stow it when you press down while inputting a stratagem is really retarded.

So, how much will botdivers beg bugdivers to save them on their front of the MO? It's honestly pathetic that botdivers can't ever complete their MOs without getting bailed out every time.
>>
>he brings napalm to bots
kicked right before we get on the evac
>>
>>500189487
No. On controller, long press down on the D-pad is the botton to interact with your backpack. So there was already an issue where you would sometimes consume a charge of the supply pack when you didn't mean to while inputting stratagem codes. Now the same thing happens for stowing your drones.

Not the first swedes have been incapable of making the keybinds functional for controller. When you pilot an exsosuits there are just certain things you can't do, like changing your camera angle.
>>
>>500189182
yknow I think you might actually be right.
I mean it's only one slot to take Recoiless, and I wouldn't say it's necessarily "OP", but guard dog is just so insane at clearing things right now.

Like you can throw down a napalm strike on a bug breach, afk with guard dog and get like 120 kills. (I'm not exagerrating I did that a few days ago).

Bots its even worse, but it's also almost a necessary evil with how shield devs cuck anything that isn't precision shot.

>>
>>500191006
It doesn't. The tips are lying to you.
>>
>>500191006
Any shooting near/at them makes them less accurate. Basically, if you are fighting bots, they are less accurate.
All that means is you never want to have them not suppressed, the system is always on as long as you engage the enemies.
>>
>bot diver comes to bug front
>thinks its a mil sim and points out every single bug
GET KICKED BITCH, we bug divers are rambo and do shit in the fun way
>>
>>500191006
If you tap like I wanna say withing 5 meters of a bot, like a devestator. They will lose accuracy almost immediately and veer their shots off you at about a 30 degree angle.

It's really noticible, especially against heavy devs, and those troopers on emplacements.

Ok I got a bug killing, spew popping, charger buck breaking, bile driving, most kills least deaths, deal with every seed, hold the GODAMN LINE, fun loadout for you.

>Crossbow
>Grenade pistol
>Impact grenade
>Explosion resist medium armor
>MG turret
>AC turret
>Rocket turret
>RR

You will pop all spewers with the cross bow and deal with everything sans heavily armored with direct impact. Kills scores of weaker enemies with each shot at the ground. Impact grenades with the armor set WHILE diving will inflict 5% HP damage if you throw it point blank. You will never be mauled to death again as long as either your crossbow is loaded or you got at least 1 grenade. New cool downs make it so you can drop 1 turret per patrol or double for breaches and major objectives. There is rarely a time you are without a gunny buddy to cover your 6. Make sure to put them on high ground so you don't kill your friends or yourself like a dumb cunt. Even parking outside a major objective while the squad goes in and setting up a nest works wonders if you can aggro the main group. Ensures low chance of friend fucking and pulls the bugs off the objective so they got light resistance. RR is just oppressively OP and drops everything with good aim. Worst comes to worst you can point back a charger and survive with the armor. This is consistently the most solid builds I've tried and there are many times you will go home as the same diver you dropped in as.

Honestly, just give it back its insane melee range and damage and ability to oneshot most things without needing to be super accurate, I'm not even sure why they gave us this version with a butter knife on top.

It's not exactly a complex game anon. Once you have an idea of the weapons and enemies it's all down to aim and luck. Anyone that would call this game a tenth of the top percentile super stressful hardcore title is a dad gamer on chronic wagie fatigue or a playstation cuck. Even at its very hardest, which was months before EoF and d10 hit, it wasn't exactly tough. A bit sweat inducing at times, but those were few and far between. It's a 5, max 6 out of 10 if 10 represents games that are actual Korean-tier nigh unsolvable bullshit. When it was at its hardest mind you. In its current state it's a 3 or 4.

Changing the rewards to something that you can't just obtain normally, 45 medals seems like a drop in a bucket especially when you don't even have to participate to get it and you probably earned way more just trying to do the order. I'd be happy with just a basic palate swap of an existing armor like those pre-order armors that are blue and white, but have a minimum paticipation amount. That way people can show off the MOs they were involved with. If all else fails do this guys' idea >>500200718

You can grind credits on level 1. If they bitch it's too hard to get credits on D10, then they must be retarded. Got all the bonds by just grinding. Motivation would be the passive gain of credits instead of running around the map x100.

Flat desert planets. Jet pack + light armor. Stamina booster, explosive primary or auto cannon support. Go around the map on D1, grab all you can, hit escape > return to ship.

It used to be better and then they fucked it. They have yet to unfuck it.

The reasoning was that the gun was performing as a better DMR than the existing DMRs. AMR that's because the DMRs were shit but now they have buffed the hell out of the DMRs so there's no reason

The death corps of Krieg are cool exactly because they're cannon fodder, all the way up to the officers.
The model you posted feels like a shitty cosplay because instead of looking like an actual officer it's a regular Kriegsman armor with gold parts on it which runs counter to what makes the Death Corps cool - men with the barest necessities of gear, but the biggest balls of steel in the world.

lmao
If the Constitution uses space-age bullets and propellants it's about as deadly as any other Helldude weapon. It's not like they literally unearth these things from battlefields and fill them with WW1 ammo

true, it is about as deadly as any other weapon. it does more damage than the DCS did before the 60 day patch, even

Nigger, I could chuck a spear at your nigger skull and you'd still be dead as if you got shot by a .50cal and the spear has been around since we living in a fucking cave.
>>
>>500218289
The bot front is so goddamned spread out right now. I guess it's the only real option though, since the supply lines on the bug front are so constricted despite there being a bunch of non-Gloom planets controlled by them.

I genuinely don't understand this complaint. Isn't that what happens with literally every video game weapon? What exactly is supposed after you aim and click on the enemy instead, a quick time event? A mini game loads?

Am I just autistic? What an I missing?

Speaking of joke weapons, AH should add in a joke secondary next, a flintlock pistol would be nice, pen 3 150dmg, same slow muzzle velocity as the SMGs, having a full joke loadout and still able to complete the mission would stroke my e-peen so hard.

An idea for a joke support weapon, a musket, pen 4, kill Hulks in 2 shots, slow reload, iron sight. It's a video game after all, realism niggers be damned.
>>
giving the senator AP4 and its consequences has been a disaster for the balance ecosystem
>>
>>500221223
The latest thing they've added is the Jet Brigade, which is a bunch of chrome jetpack automatons that occupy one planet at a time. The brigade has disappeared for now but it's probably going to return and move from planet to planet in the future.

make it pen4 but extremely inaccurate

>giving the Senator the direct equivalent of the preexisting P-6 Penetrators' armor piercing killing power has been a disaster for the balance ecosyACK
>>
>>500220301
It does feel like it finally achieved the niche it should have had all along, which is just a Liberator that can effectively take on armored enemies, and it's actually fun to use too. Makes for a good alternative to the Adjudicator, it's in a good spot

anyone that copes sterilizer and dog breath as anything but F tier is an idiot in my opinion

Shooting the rockets on the side of a chicken strider should cause it to blow open a hole into the cockpit, at which point you can just shoot the pilot
>>
>>500223128
but shooting the rockets just kills the fucking things outright as is, why make it shittier?
>>
>>500223020
all they need to do to make the dogbreath A or S tier is make it switch targets
change its priority from "finish off one target, move to the next" to "spray one target, move to the next"

sterilizer would need a significant damage buff to ever be good, though
arc thrower is completely superior CC at a superior range and with superior damage, with infinite ammo
>>
>>500223128
The only change armored chicken walkers need is for the rockets to be telegraphed in some way, they should spark a split second before they get launched or something.
>>
>>500223186
Don't the rocket pods still often despawn on hit instead of exploding?
>>
>>500223779
If you hit the mounting rail, yes. So aim good.
>>
>>500223346
The Sterilizer would be good if it left clouds of gas behind and had a lot more range.
>>
>>500223186
It would be cooler
>>
>>500223917
if it was capable of producing clouds that dealt similar DPS to the orbital gas strike, and which lasted for similar times, at a range of maybe 30-40m, i would accept it as an A tier stratagem
anything else and it's just a flamethrower derivative with a weak gimmick
>>
>>500221172
>it's not unusable, but it is mediocre and not much of a pick
Almost as if it's a bolt action rifle designed in the year 1899 or something. How many early 18th century muskets are still competitive on the modern battlefield today?

It's bad. The grenades are the only worthwhile thing in there unless your a support femboy, then you'll probably like the stim pistol.
The armor perk reduces gas damage, which is useless because gas damage is already very low.
>>
>>500224436
lousy aside from the gas grenades and stim pistol
>>
>>500224641
My mistake, I can't recall having ever seen you before but my memory is also shit so that might have had something to do with it. Fun game besides the crashes. Dunno why Arrowhead decided to put in great looking dropship explosions if its just going to crash the game.
>>

>>
>>500224436
sterilizer is garbage and dog is good is a meme but can be used. stim pistol is a fun break from aiming at ai hordes and the gas armor let's you stand in gas long enough to appreciate it
>>
>>500224436
Sterilizer is an M1 to CC while your guard dog kills everything weapon. If you're not running the gas heavy armour exclusive to the super store and in a rotation then it's mid.

>>500224436
The gas grenades are good, the stim pistol is fun. I think the armor looks cool but the new passive ability is worthless. It's the only warbond in the game with strategems, but they're weak, especially the support weapon. I can't actually remember what the booster is, which goes to show how often it gets picked. Also, that decent orbital the other anon mentioned isn't even included in the warbond, he's mistaken.

All in all it's weak. If you've got the SC, definitely wait until the new one drops later this week and wait for the consensus on that one.
>>
>>500225091
verifying does nothing
the only thing you can do not to crash is not shooting dropships
>>
>>500225293
There is no booster with that warbond.

>>
>>500224436
Gas is a good effect. It makes enemies go blind and just walk around and attack randomly. Gas grenade is great, fantastic way to fuck up a big blob of enemies. Gas gun is trash, its a bad flamethrower.

Gas dog is average to bad. Its fine if you use it with a flamethrower as a way of confusing enemies so you can burn them. But with this play style you would likely have more fun with a jetpack or personal shield.
>>
>>500226420
but who wouldn't have fun doubling up on war crimes, anon?

Haven't able to play the game in 5 months, wtf did they do to my Slugger? Why is it so inaccurate and why is the bullet so slow?
>>
>>500226652
it got nerfed and buffed so many times it kinda broke. it still works but its not 100% accurate anymore.
>>
If they don't plan on progressing the war past the same 7 planets, I don't understand the point of restricting the limited time missions like the termicide towers or the one where you get overwhelmed by swarms of shriekers at the end.
It would be one thing if the war finished every few months or so, but right now it's just limiting what people are able to do for no reason.
>>
>>500226652
They expect you to use it within 100 meters or so because anything outside of that and you're rolling a slot machine thanks to the spread on its shots.
>>
>>500227305
100 yards is pretty fucking far.

no, EATs should get sample upgrades to come 4 to a pod, then to have even faster base cooldown, and THEN to do base RR damage, while RR should itself sample upgrade to have even niggerer damage to deal with what's to come
>>
>>500200235
Immediately implement an armor/weapon/droppod/pelican/super destroyer color changing system. Something that takes very very little to work in development wise and can be a huge resource sink. Want a pink helmet? That will be 10k scripts, 200 medals, or 100 common 50 rares and 20 superrares. Players would eat that shit up and would drive up the desire to run more and more missions. Every shooter has proven that players care more about glam then gameplay or balance more then half the time. It is the ultimate skinner box and would keep people playing constantly. You could then focus the warbonds solely on new items instead of a handful of random colors no one gives a shit about. Because it is usually all or nothing and can't be used on their base armor.
