Minigun Edition>Previous>>521209750>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/>LOBBY GUIDEhttps://files.catbox.moe/83ixkr.png>MODDING GUIDEhttps://files.catbox.moe/c81ogo.png>INFORMATION RESOURCEShttps://helldivers.wiki.gg/https://helldiverscompanion.com/https://helldivers.io/https://invadersfromplanet.space/helldivers-2/>MAJOR NEWSMar 18: Patch 1.002.200 https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/553850/view/578254855150240184Mar 20: Borderline Justice https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sr22D9zoRjo>LATEST PATCHApr 01 1.002.202 https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/553850/view/516331541072185173Apr 04 1.002.203 https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/553850/view/516332175331688923

FUCK YOU ADMIRAL DEFENSE, HAND OVER THAT DSS EAGLE UPGRADE
Mech CD reduction should've been a ship upgrade, but I guess AH doesn't do these anymore
Shitty defense MO soon, will last long enough for eagle storm to make the rounds
>be me>AC user>host remarks how he might just pick AC one day as a joke>refuse to react>5 mins later>host be getting pummeled by a dozen gunships near a jammer >look the other waysurely an RRgod can appreciate the ol' sink or swim treatment
I want my REP-80
why post lobby guide when no one joins them.
>>521319039I used AC again yesterday after not using it for a while. It's still just one of if not the best support weapon in the game.
>>521319562Sounds like a skill issue, i get full lobbies.
>>521319562I joined 3 different lobbies yesterday, anon. Maybe people just don't like your lobbies.
>>521319580I agree but a great deal of people refuse to give it a chance because primaries and backpacks aren't generally trash anymore
I'm just waiting for the "Default Diver" or "Cadet training room" or whatever the fuck anon to host
/hdg/ sleeps on the GL, and I can't figure out why. Biggest splash radius of any blue, twice the splash damage of AC flak, and no need for a stationary reload or ammo backpack. Plus, it makes a good entrenchment tool on bots.
>>521320217>ammo backpackInstead you're forced to burn another stratagem slot on a supply pack and get cucked by everything heavier than a hulk
>>521320217it cant kill heavies
>>521320217short ranged, AP3 and low ammo>"b-but you could just bring the supply pack"you know the weapon is shit when you need a whole nother stratagem just to use it
>>521320217There's enough things that kill chaff and mediums already. It also is useless vs gunships, which really sucks for a dedicated medium killer.
>>521320217I hate how grenades behave in a physical sense and don't want a support weapon that's next to useless against heavies. Yeah AC isn't cut out to mow down heavies either but it can amputate a bile titan's butt sack with relative ease if need be.
>>521320217The Airburst Rocket Launcher can already do everything the GL can do but 1000 times better
>>521319562i consistently get full lobbies.youre probably posting them in dead hours
>>521320590supply pack + thermite + ultimatum means you can slow-kill 11 tanks/hulks/turrets and fast-kill 6 more. if you have actual brainstem presence you can put down factory striders despite the range issue with proper use of cover. It also doubles ammo income from resupplies for long term ammo econ- you get 4 thermites and 2 ultimatums from ONE (1) resupply package, enough to handle 3 minuites of combat if your team is even slightly competent. Technically you can add some extra given you can slowly drain the supply pack and then call another every 7min which is like idk 30 free thermites/15 free ultimatums a gameThe real issue is scout striders and gunships. This can be handled with proper primary selection though. GL+supply is amazing at fucking over incendiary corps. You can pad things with a cuck chair too (the gunships and factory striders, that is)
How should I be using railgun. I always blow myself up with it
>be me, can't sleep>fck it, drop into a squid mission>already in progress, someones found the purple samples and are trying to get some objective done>spend like ten minutes not dying to voteless and squids>look in text chat, I am now the host>objective is glitching and not working for anyone>team asks what to do>fuck it we're extracting with the samples and the Super Credits we picked up along the way>spend like ten minutes fighting them off up to and around the extraction point, call in all weapons and supplies just before the timer runs out>one guy goes down but the rest of us make it out with the samplesMission failed probably doesn't help any of those Illuminate invasions progress but at least I made my own fun
>>521322439you don't actually need to go above 85% charge to get the best breakpoints
bot gods mech gods we won by a land slid feels good being this good
>>521322439against what faction / enemy?
>>521322439use your ears, the pitch changes as the railgun is further overcharged. It's about 3s to explode so if you can figure out the cue for when its charged enough to fire, use that as a counter. I exploded it like twice when I was level 20 and exacatly once since. (bar intentionally exploding it to tk randoms when id live)as for usage: >use your primary for troopers, >railgun for devs, overcharge it a little and just get it on target near the head, >hulks shoot the eye with any half decent charge to 1 shot (aim for the lower half of the eye if you're having issues)if nooblet/building confidence/issue with bombbing head, you can shoot the flamer/rocket (its left, your right) arm with a half-or-so overcharge and it will be disabled, then if you shoot a leg it will be crippled, other leg it dies.>Scout striders just overcharge it a bit to be sure desync doesnt fuck your dmg and blow the top cab off/ lobotomize them>Everything heavier: Don't use it, therite/ultimatum/stratagem instead, you can technically damage stuff (you can 2 shot on very high charge the fac strider turret and 1 shot the miniguns) but it will take exorbitant time to actually kill anything.Oh and a 2/3rds or "high" overcharge one shots mortar / AA Emplacements.If you're just "waking up" a garisson or patrol take advantage of hulk staring at you for easy eye shots, then clean scout striders/troopers, then devs depending on the tactical situation.

>>521321151stationary reload and doesnt leave a backpack slot are its downsides, otherwise correct.

>>521327553Just let the swedes stress over having to manage the black hole bullshit without stressing out over it yourself. They should know by now that the playerbase won't bother with the squid defenses unless it's an MO.

So, shut the frick up, and let them COOK. You will survive without new toys while Devs are doing real work for your whiny ass.
>>521333059Yes but we need it again because new squid units are more complicated than rocket science to code.Btw they’re just a dude sitting in a floating chair (regret from halo 2) that shoots lasers with a shield around him, and a medium/large brawler bruiser melee guy.

i think the railgun is cool and i'm tired of pretending it's notit should have overpenetration when using the unsafe mode, with the capability of killing two mediums with one shot, should the stars align.

Wtf why is my character looks so low sharpness or whatever it's called, playing on high. Also, gotta say I love this fashion kit when fighting bugs
>>521347476>Technically leaves spear untested
>>521347415Good to hear you're not gormless, keep testin', and yeah its not great.>>521347615Wtf so it DOES take damage??? Does 2 RR HEAT shots do it or is this a spear specific thing?
>>521345424>"Heres an MO to stop the black hole once and for all""DUHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH DIS EEZE FEEEELAR EM OH"
>>521347615too bad nobody ever picks spear, especially just to close a titan hole
>>521347889>Does 2 RR HEAT shotsit's a DF checkit's either sufficient or not, it doesn't stack - if it won't die to one, it won't die to six thousandout of all support weapons, only spear has 40 demo force - unless you throw the weapon's hellpod into the hole
my solution to bug titan holes is to bring EATs and call them on the hole
>>521345424GIVE ME A SUPER SAMPLE SINKMake it give us free meks or unlimited lasers
Can't hold down to access stratagem in the middle of mission, any help?
>>521347218If you have an expendable support weapon you can use the hellpod to close the hole. Other low-cd stuff like Gas Strike, OPS, and Airstrike also work. Spear and Ultimatum are the only direct weapons that work because they have high enough demo force, but a portable hellbomb will obviously also do the trick.
>>521347610turn off aa
>>521347898forgive me for not believing the 3rd stop the singularity forever MO might not actually stop the singularity forever
>>521347045Mega nests and the retardation of pubs is specifically why I bring 500kgs/OPSs now. I can't solo the nest for a pack of mouthbreathers, but I can at least keep them from spawning a dozen bile titans that they can't do anything about (the average nu-diver also has no antitank other than thermites).
>>521347615So spear is a crutch, got it.
>bugs got gloom and pretador strains>bots got jeetback brigade and the flame brigade>squids got nothing
>>521348120The others said they wernt stopping it. Only slowing it. Im not surprised a retard who thinks everything is filler cant fucking read.
ConTent?
>>521347914honestly my go-to bot loadouts have a hole (hah, pun) against titan holes. I might stomach the spear over the RR just for that. Between this and the dropship changes it really feels like they're trying to give SPEAR a niche which I'm all for the idea of.>>521348030oh so the Spear has Demo40, I never knew that, I did know the titan hole was an old school democheck... Does that mean if it was to strike a detector / jammer tower it would demo it? (IIRC it can lock neither?)
>>521348314squids got nothing cuz nobody plays them, so there is nothing to complain about
>>521348150For me it's 120mm HE. Alongside the titan hole it usually takes out a few titans, standard holes, and moronic mates.
>>521348314Not having subfaction rosters is the least of squids' worries. They don't even have a full roster to begin with.
>>521348428>Does that mean if it was to strike a detector / jammer tower it would demo it?no, that needs df50, i.e a direct SEAF shell hit, a bot cannon turret hit or something esoteric like dropship exploding directly on itor a SAMobviously more conventional ways exist, but those are probably the funniest
>>521348428I dropped spear when I realsied it can't guarantee one-shot dropships, can't guaranteed one-shot bile titants and takes like 6 spears to kill a strider.just too fucking niche, imma RR instead
>>521345852does strafing take out heavies at all?
>>521348428oh my god I said bot instead of bugs, actual brainrot hahahaha I think I'm infected send help
>>521348156Spear is way too inefficient to be called a crutch. If it had a dumbfire mode and better ammo reserve, sure. But that will never ever happen.
>>521348483And nobdy plays them because they go nothing.It's like the state mechs have been in since launch until now.

Do you really need to bait BT acid attack to one shot it with EAT
>Throw thermite at charger>Doesnt kill it....Why?
>>521349936no, but baiting the acid attack is the easiest way to get a clear shot (aka most consistent)
>>521349726yea yea ya chud chomolike slowing and stopping aren't mutually exclusive when it come to the purple testiclei bet we'll still be dealing with this shit in august
>>521349936You do not. Just hit the forehead.
>>521350019THis also drives me up the wall. every youtuber glazes thermite as a one-hit kill solution for chargers but often I need to use 2 grenades for them
I will not chase Joel's dangling carrot. Swedoids should just release content when it's ready, no conditions.
>>521350019>>521350242if it hits the leg, you gotta finish it off
>>521349649I've always wondered why the SAM was given the obscene pen / DF value (IIRC it sits at AT6 / AP9 / whatever the nukes are). To stop jank with the explosion bouncing off a gun/dropship? Sure its a full sized SAM (few hundred kgs of mass hitting something is gonna go through) but its got the same pen as nuclear weapons
>>521350019>>521350242stop hitting charges in the leg every were else is one hit kill
>>521350080>Now hes trying to argue what words in the English language mean
>>521350019Sloppy throw. Hit the head.
>>521350283adding to this: (behemoth) chargers arent one shot by thermite to body. Apply to head, or add some butt damage to tip it into bleed properly
>>521350316to make sure it kills the dropship and its cargo no matter the angle I imaginethis is probably one of the few tests of the actual in-game systems they did and figured if they kept the values low the dropship's cargo would survive just like it does with the thruster kills nowadays

I'm going to Bug Festyou guys want anything?
>>521351208meant for>>521350934
>>521350771I figure that but as far as I know it's more likely a "lets be REALLY sure" over-setting (I mean for the dev setting this up its basically just setting a number) but afaik the Spear hits it with AT2 and semi reliably splits it (killing dropship main / splitting it kills the cargo while thruster / spin kill only kills anything attatched on ground impact), and AP is assigned per-weapon to all the angles of impact individually... Or do explosions all remove a uniform AP for falloff or something making them different?Asides that I'm guessing that's checked with something simple like if attatched to dropship when dropship death = kill, but what's weird is those times where a dropship dies but some enemies are "stuck" floating mid-air attatched to it (common-ish on eradicate to see a few zerkers or hulks like that)It's really werid cause iirc the SAM projectile and explosive have very different AT values too
>throw termites at charger head>it pings offthanks super earth
>>521349012Airburst feels really good. I thought i'd see way higher killcounts. But offing a squad at 100m for 8 kills does way more work than it seems. I just love deleting squads of devs and striders. It makes the game so much more relaxed when I don't have to worry about them and I can actually take a second to check my dam map.
>>521350019>>521350242It's around 95% of the HP.Any source of damage on top will make sure the Thermite kills the Charger.
>>5213408653/4 new set of missions
>>521351648>but what's weird is those times where a dropship dies but some enemies are "stuck" floating mid-air attatched to it (common-ish on eradicate to see a few zerkers or hulks like that)I think there's some spaghetti involved with the attached units becoming proper entities with physics
>>521351218You better hurry up because it is 21:05 here.
>>521352319I dont have a webm on hand but I know for a fact if you go close to the "floating noosed" enemies hanging in air they can attempt a melee, and if they do so it unfucks them (They suddenly move to the ground)might be more to do with them not getting "placed" on the ground and the AI / movement controller doesnt know what to do when it cant interact with whatever pathing hd2 uses
>ANOTHER black hole filler MOAt least gloom bugs are back
>>521352751>I dont have a webm on hand but I know for a fact if you go close to the "floating noosed" enemies hanging in air they can attempt a meleethis is a separate issue from the one i picturedi'm fairly sure if the units get staggered mid drop or the dropship gets downed after starting to hover they bug out into the hanging stateyou can unfuck them by staggering them in any way i'm pretty surethe pathing explanation is pretty plausible too, but if they can recover after getting launched mid-air i'm not 100% convinced that's what's going on

>>521353150I'm tired of this stupid fucking story line and swiggers stretching it out as long as possible.
>>521353063yeah, more just cycling back to what I was originally talking about, not refing to your pictured (pretty funny though when that happens)I can picture stagger unfucking it, I swear I've inflicted 'light' stagger (flinch) on a floating zerker and it still floated before, but cant remember heavy stagger / stumble inflicts, most of the "flies to space" bugs I see of living enemies they usually act like they're still walking midair so I've always cropped them up to some kind of discordance between model and AI position, or the AI thinking it's still grounded... Lots of weird and interesting jank, what surprises me is how common these issues are yet how no fixes are even attempted

>>521353890the only "team class build roleplay coom whatever" is AT because you at least can't fuck your primary with AT and that can handle chaff. "Chaff builds" are just the d10 player's version of gambling as opposed to supercredit consoooming

If we'd gone for the Eagle upgrade instead, we would probably be doing a "Recapture several bot planets that were taken by the Incineration Corps" MO where those planets have fire bot garrisons stationed on them.

>500kg is chosen by 35% of players for every matchThis makes it the most popular stratagem in the entire game.Is there really nothing better?

>>521360660No, they lean back.
>>521360554There are many stratagems that are better (AT Emplacement, Portable Hellbomb), but you would be hard-pressed to name any that are as flashy and iconic (Orbita Laser and Railcannon are flashier but not better).

>>521362603> I still ABSOLUTELY want a Support weapon in every loadout, right?Yeah, it is called Recoilless Rifle.Better safe than sorry.
>>521326520anon there will be a bot subfaction with more armor as well as one with more firepower. you will deeply crave deadeye's stagger and immense damage once we get to fight those.>siege ready is mandatory if you can't swap your default perk for siege ready without eating shit you overdepend on the former imo.
>>521362603Heavy armors got buffed at some point, I think they're more protective.For warbonds, you want Polar Patriots and Urban Legends ASAP. Most of the rest are generally optional by comparison.
>>521362975Mind telling me why those two Warbonds? I only know from a friend that he said a while ago that the Purifier is really good>>521362875>Nothing changed since i leftYay.
>>521318278I'm a NoGuns so...Is it actually possible to use a gun's scope while wearing a big-ass motorcycle-like helmet like Helldivers do?
>>521340865Closed
>>521364245it depends on whether the gun's ergonomics are designed around wearing a helmet and armorthey definitely don't help thoughever
>>521354887>shotgun/brapdog only,shitter detected
>>521360554It's a fun get-out-of-jail-free card that has enough uses to justify having it on standby and if you have to waste one, no big deal, it'll be back in less than a couple minutes. Unlike its competitors, Orbital rail cannon and laser

>>521363309Pretty much all the weapons in Polar Patriots are very good. The Tenderizer is arguably the best AP2 assault rifle in the game, the Pummeler got recently buffed, the Verdict is the strongest general-purpose sidearm with the least drawbacks, and the Purifier is literally the strongest anti-bot primary weapon in the game.Urban Legends has the Siege Ready armor perk, which turns any mediocre primary weapon into something actually reliable, and the AT Emplacement contends for the strongest stratagem in the game. It's just so stupidly strong that bringing it to bot missions almost feels like a war crime.
lobby where>>521363309nta but Purifier, Tenderizer, and Verdict from PP ar a p gud, the former being powerful enough to deal with gunships while staggering devas/striders. like the Plas Punisher it also works against turrets as well. the latter two are just solid high damage bullet spitters. well, as solid as you can get for a light pen for the case of tenderizer, but it hits decently hard for an AR. same for verdict except med pen.Anti-Tank Emplacement from UR absolutely dumpsters bot heavies provided you got clear LoS. particularly notable since the newly added Factory Strider Convoy Subobjective adds another 'needs AT' demand to the pile.directional shield and melee weapons are fun but you are giving up a pack/secondary for them so YMMV
>>521364245Most scopes have a couple inches of eye relief, you don't push your eye up into the scope even if you weren't wearing a helmet unless you want a circular tattoo around your eye.

>>521372789with a direct hit, yeswith OPS you don't need a direct hit, the splash itself is high demo
>>521372961We actually used 3 green 1 red crutch for the most part and used appropriate primaries and secondaries. If you want us to "stop using crutches" and just choose nonsense loadouts and ineffective weapons to truly "play the game", then even the highest difficulty of hd2 is designed to be piss easy.

>>521374487Playing """optimally""" is just having basic spatial awareness and not taking meme loadouts like smoke and EMS strikes. You don't even have to take what is considered 'meta' to make d10 a cakewalk.

>>521375062the only thing it could possibly need is just swapping the numbers for the projectile damage and explosion damage
>>521375245the game was never too hard or in fact hard enoughI went through full deathless ops back when enemies were allowed to have armor and all of reddit gamer dads screeched from the top of their lungs for getting outwitted by a small pack (12) of bile titans
>"wow wtf why isn't the game hard anymore???">"how could this happen to me im literally shaking and crying rn"
>>521375062because its mogged by every other strategem. and its underpowered. needs bigger numbers to be useful. and not the ultimatum but the 500kg.
>>521375062>1 use demolition tool with a 90 second cooldown, not enough damage to actually kill big enemies, not enough aoe to kill anything if its not directly ontop of itits a contender for the worst stratagem in the entire game
>WASP
>>521375245>make guns and strategems work properly>this trivializes the gameWhy don't they just buff enemies in higher difficulties? The game shouldn't be balanced around difficulty 10 being regular difficulty intended for the general audience (even if reddit thinks it should be)
>>521375647
>>521375891reddit mastered the art of thinking you're right when everyone is telling you that you're mistakenplebbitdivers will never understand that we want a difficulty that can make us lose, stress us, and mock us for not playing smarter
>>521375697500kg is technically longer cooldown and eagles differ quite a bit from orbitals>>521375718what do you need to blow up every 2 seconds anonthere's only like 3-5 structures per map that demands high demo and OPS fits nicely into a well rounded loadout
>>521376074>reddit mastered the art of thinking you're right when everyone is telling you that you're mistakenpeak 4chan tho
>>521376207nah 4chan mastered the art of spite and debasement in equal measure
>>521375891>Why don't they just buff enemies in higher difficulties?City maps are the current example of them buffing enemies. Any bigger nest has at least 3 Impalers, 6 Chargers, and a Bile Titan hole. Bots have mines everywhere, minimal cover, and heavy fabricators.
>like color blue>only 1 blue cape>only 1 blue player card>1 actually blue helmet>2 blue armors (that you can acquire easily)Is there a lore reason for a distinct llack of blue
>>521376192>500kg is technically longer cooldown and eagles differ quite a bit from orbitalsyea because eagles >orbitalsOPS is just a shit strategem that has no value outside of being a contrarian pick. 500kg actually kills everything and comes with 2 that you can easily use in a pinch.
>>521376546blue is a womanly color that symbolizes peace and serenity and shit like that (which is why the SEAF wear it). pink and red is for men, and for soldiers, red is highly macho, which explains why there are a lot of red armors
>>521376546preorder armor exclusive colors
why does smoke strike have a higher cooldown than all the other orbital strikes?
>>521376192>what do you need to blow up every 2 seconds anonI NEED more than 1 use every 90 seconds to blow up the bug holes and fabricators all over the mapwhen I can bring in anything else in the game including support weapons and fortifications and they manage to do this better it is an issue
>>521339330Uooh divers it's our time?
>>521376342Q.E.D.
>>521376808crowd control is too powerful
Kinda funny how the talon really doesnt benefit the most from gunslinger passive
>>521376939we need as heatsink enhancing armor perk so bad
>>521376723blue is the color of super earth...
>>521376815Croissant cannon lets you one-tap bug holes and fabricators every 15 seconds with infinite ammo.
>>521376862but gas and EMS does crowd control better
>>521376808Even Sweden has given up on trying to make smoke strats viable.
>>521377064yes, and super earth is peaceful and the mother planet. did you think you had a counterpoint?
>>521377069I can just pack crossbow, GP, or autocannon for thatammo is everywhere in this game on top of crutchers that never go in without pod optimization and supply pack
>>521377069and now im locked into using an F tier support weaponthe qcannon + ops is as far away from a "well rounded loadout" as you can come
>>521376815there's no stratagem in the game that offers 50 demo force and the capacity to blow up multiple fabricators/holes in quick succession with a cooldown less than 90 seconds, so I don't know what frame of reference you're using herelike 500kg is somewhat comparable, but there's still the tradeoff of using eagles, rearm times are longer, cooldown interactions with other eagle gems, its a sidegrade for the most part
>>521377243did you... retard?
>>521377440>capacity to blow up multiple fabricators/holes in quick succession>90 secs>quick succesionlmao and the splash damage is nothing so youre only getting one bug hole and fab per call-in. meanwhile a 500kg just nukes 8/10 bug holes with one call-in.
500kg is a bit of a meme and so is OPS120mm HE, ultimatum, strafing run, and portable hellbomb are the thinking man's means of on demand demolition now
>>521377451>go to war repping super earth's colors>are you here to fight helldiver or do you just miss civilian lifethere's a reason american soldiers do not wear uniforms that look like they're wearing the american flag
>>521370921MG-43 and HMG have stationary reload, while Stalwart doesn't fare well against Hive Guards or Bile Spewers.>>521371656Because there are 16 separate pages of stuff and you can't divide that evenly by 3.>>521371694It would still be extremely strong at 60 seconds after all upgrades factor in. Stop being such a shitter.>>521373118>making it rapid-fire would at least make it somewhat viableWe already have that, it's called the Orbital 380mm Barrage.
>>521374172I mean, once Spookes or Gala or Colat see the thread they can just tell us who you are.
>>521377765because you were demanding that OPS should be balanced as such, but then there would literally be no reason for barrages to exist when you can just spam OPS
>>521373609may god forgive me but i'll take coomers over furries
>>521376546>blue helmetYou've hydrogenated your last peanut butter.
>>521377440any hellpod will close a bile hole while also actually providing something of value500kg has TWO uses with a 10 second longer cooldown inbetween, OPS is pathetic in comparison and that is without even considering the 500kgs significantly bigger aoe and damage
>>521373609The fact he doesn't blink is creepy, is why.
>>521378094dont carestill using OPSmaybe orbital laser is more your speed since you don't know how to use real stratagems
>>521378247it is actually pathetic how even the orbital laser manages to bring more value than the OPS
>>521378210fursuits generally do not blink, bro. the human inside them does though
>>521378389keep thinking that
>>521373609dumb doxxer
>>521373609based doxxer
>>521373609I am indifferent to the doxxer
>>521373609I'll take furfags every day over coomers
>>521378247>still using OPS>if i use a shitty weapon, that makes it magically not shitty!great logic there.>>521378005no because barrages would still be able to cover multiple holes/area with one call-in. fire and forget. OBS you would still need to wait around 45 seconds times 10 to clear 10 holes and still drop the beacon right on top of the hole basically. not at all optimal compared to just dropping a 380mm in the general vicinity of the bug holes and walking away.

Why's this thread so obsessed over seeing someone's IGN anyways? I don't give a fuck about who I play with, how they play, and what gems they use as long as they don't actively try to FF others and we complete the operation.
>"You should never grade evils, for if one is the worst, then you might be tempted to kinship with the least"
>>521378670I'm not defending OPS here - it's garbage and not worth using - but at least it's reliable and hits the beacon. Unlike 380mm that can and often will miss most holes and enemies and end up doing nothing much.

>>521392971The squids are an incomplete faction and people are getting fed up with how long Arrowhead has been dragging them on. This is because they are a vanguard fleet made purely to harvest energy for the Meridia wormhole to continue. Honestly, they can be very fun depending on the RNG, especially if you're driving the car through the cities and speedrunning objectives, but they're clearly lacking a lot at the moment.Terminids have received two sub-factions that AH cycles through every now and then: Predator Strain and Gloom bugs. Gloom bugs are nothing special so far, we only have 3 of them and they're small chaff that don't behave any differently other than explode on death and deal light chip damage through that.The Predator Strain is the interesting one. Stalkers are now regular enemies, found in patrol units, but they don't go invisible or ragdoll you. Hunters are way faster and can spit acid. This created a Sentry + Stagger meta to cover flanks and stunlock them before they get too close to essentially instakill you.Automatons received the Incinerator Corps. Devastators wield a Dragonsbreath shotgun, Hulks have a spammable incendiary mortar attack, Troopers wield flamethrowers.

What does the gloom shit do again? I know it slows you, but the damage component seems totally inconsequential.
>>521392456The overall difficulty of the game has been reduced slightly thanks to the devs fixing a bunch of shit all around. Bug heavies actually die when you shoot them with anti-tank weaponry, bots in general are less oppressive and bullshit (for instance they don't wallhack anymore), shitty unviable weapons have been buffed to make them more viable, and so on. Basically, the artificial difficulty that arose from the developers not knowing how to balance their own game were largely fixed, so you don't feel like a weak-ass worthless piece of shit anymore. Super Helldive is still a challenge, but you can actually do something about it.

>>521404816no it will return, but it will be a shadow of its former self
Why respect AP3 primaries when my Senator can do anything you can...
>>521405112If "meta" stratagems absolutely demolish d10 with no effort, then d10 is too easy. They should work up to a point (d7-9) but d10 should come with immediate counters to meta stratagems, which the swoids have data for and can just change the game without nerfing the stratagem itself. For example if too many people are using sentries, certain bugs have "advanced ai" that burrow then appear next to the sentry and just attack it in melee. Or certain bots have the ability to hijack sentries and make them just spin around weirdly while constantly firing. There's so many ways you can increase difficulty without touching the effectiveness of stratagems.

Retoorner here, does the thread still host SC farming lobbies? I don't wanna give these swedish fucks any money until they un-fuck the game and give me the content I want.
>>521408687The hunter/jumper seed is also only possible on data retrieval and e-710 extraction, bringing less than AP3 on any other mission type is your own fault.
How're the Gas Mines and Gas Drones? I know the Raidthrower sucks
>>521374908nah that should only be on planets with modifiers.
>>521410265Also also; is the Axe worth buying? looks pretty cool
i honestly don't know how you're supposed to consistently clear heavy and mega hives without the use of barrages or mechs. it becomes especially apparent on these gloom maps. running in RAW into a large hive is basically a suicide mission where you're hoping you get lucky with spawns and that a bug breach doesn't open and force you to wait. at any time getting swarmed will result in a death spiral. contrast that to if even just one of you has a barrage: you can now safely clear half of the bug holes and stifle any breach for 30 seconds. if more than 1 of you has a barrage, then you can probably clear 90% of the bug holes. a 380 has the ability to completely clear some large hives as well.

>>521411278you're wrong.they patched seeding so it's now random from all constellations
>>521410964i eagerly await some gameplay to back that up. i only run D10 and every time we attack a mega hive it is clear that a barrage would be very useful. the only time they wouldn't be is if no mobs spawn in the hive so you can just sprint through it and close all of the bug holes.
>>521411476ICBM still feels like it's 90% chance of being armored bileniggers but the others feel pretty random now.
it's another>but the game worked like this in 2024 august! I'm right, I know it even though I don't have the game installed.episode
>>521410743is the lever action good on bugs?
How would you fix the Orbital Gatling? This thing just feel really weak
>>521408687Oh no *unloads my Reprimand* whatever shall I do *blasts some heads with the Halt*People who sleep on the Truth Enforcers because meme tierlists tell them it's a bad warbond deserve to suffer.
>>521411672lever action is just worse than the slugger, especially against bugs
>>521411571see >>521410964
>>521411672only good with Siege ready armor due to the slow ass reload time

>early
>>521412103When I get a primary that's as good as the Ultimatum or Senator at removing heavies, I'd be quite happy to run the Verdict as my psuedo-primary but until then, Reprimand goes blatblatblat. The accuracy problem is also dramatically oversold, and they even reduced it further in the last patch so unless you're trying to snipe dev heads at 100+ meters, it's not a problem.
>>521412371it is a problem because you can't mitigate it at all with the games multitude of shooting stances, instead it flies in the face of the games psuedo-realism milsimlite mechanics by giving you a gun with inherent inaccuracy that you can't control. i'd prefer HMG tier ergonomics and recoil than a gun where its accuracy is RNG
>>521412103>less ammo>less mag size>less chugg a chugg>same weapon
this gloom dive seemed a lot easier than the previous one
>>521412607>what is MoAEven setting aside realism arguments because this is a video game, here's the amount of spread you're dealing with 25 yards on the left with the AMR on the right. If you're sniping at dev heads at 50 yards, that amount of deviation might be a problem, but bugs don't have precise offswitch weakpoints that you need to hit while the amount of DPS the Reprimand does at AP3 means it shreds through anything smaller then a charger.
>>521414292>MoAthere is no weapon in the world that is currently being used by a military that has the MoA of the reprimand, let alone one used by a sci-fi militaristic earth. i understand that the design behind the accuracy was to make it so you're encouraged to get close range, but this is just the slugger all over again - they think if they make the reprimand accurate it'll enroach on weapons like the Adjudicator, which it won't. the reload speed, reflex sight, mag size and bullet speed and drop already go far enough in enforcing a closerange playstyle.
>>521414764And there's no military in the world dealing with enemies capable of shrugging off smaller caliber rounds to the face, so once again, realism is a dumb argument that you felt the need to start. I'd be fine with the inaccuracy going away, but acting as though the weapon is currently unusable trash because of it is equally as retarded when recoil is going to cause significantly more aim deviation even if you're crouch and wearing fortified armor.
>>521412330no it's not retard
>>521415142i never said the gun is unusable trash, it just goes against everything the game teaches you in regards to shooting>see bot trooper>center my sights on it center-mass>crouch>fire>bullet decides to go off center like im playing counter strikealso, recoil can be mitigated and only becomes a limiting factor under repeated fire. unlike RBS which will or will not kick in on any round fired
>>521411278>implying its only possiblemore likely, not concrete. also it doesn't spawn ONLY that variation just way more of it compared to other mission types>>521411476they have not, well for bots anyway
