Kill the fucking robots edition. Previous: >>537140208>WHAT IS HELLDIVERS 2?HELLDIVERS 2 is a 2024 crossplay, co-op, squad-based, PvE 3rd person shooter for PC, Xbox Series X/S, PS5 and Playstation 5 where players fight against hordes of alien insects, robots and squids to Spread Democracy™. Players wage war on a number of contested planets, each with a different environment, completing as many objectives as possible in a procedurally generated level while constrained by a time limit. With enough successful operations, a planet can be defended or 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.xbox.com/en-us/games/store/helldivers-2/9mx9wn9dfpgthttps://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 a shared screen top-down shooter in the same setting.

If Joel said "nope not good enough" I am 99.7% certain people would bitch about that being unrealistic too.
>>537183115Except we also would have won that one but because of the way the game handles objectives no charger kills that aren't the vanilla ones counted. When they realised this they increased regular charger spawns but because of how the game handles spawns that also didn't work, higher difficulties replaced them with variants that don't count and lower difficulties have a hard spawn cap for chargers.
>Joel keeps up the attacks because muh MO logic>MO is about killing all 3 factions >the attacks must continue but they're all going to succeed because the retarded svedka liberation system >very quickly push the front lines away from the gloom >except we're supposed to push into the gloom in a week >uuuuh hehe woops uh leave like really awkward gaps in the attack pattern so we can still jump into the gloom!Really thought that one through, huh Joel.

>>537183270This game has peaked thrice with bot-related player-driven stories
>Reposting because I posted it at the very end of the previous general. Sorry in advance.I'm a average to below-average skilled player overall but like to play on D10 even though I really shouldn't be there and I want to know, outside not doing D10, what sort of kit could I create for myself so I'm not even more of a burden to my team?

>>537183504Even the other HD2 communities are starting to bitch.
desperately need chinkbros to give me free sc
Aw what's that? You were hoping to save Emeria and then divert 80k players to Terrek to do the gambit we expected you to do now that they were free? Oopsie doopsie Emeria is under attack 2 minutes after you beat it.Oh no the planets Terrek attacked are now taken? Sorry buddy!
>>537183635we've literally lost MOs in the past that were at a hair's width of being completed
>>537183979Just play the meta stuff. You really can't go wrong with a RR, 500kg, Rocket Turret, and a free space for whatever you want. You can panic shoot the big threats and usually kill them, always have a massive damage source turret up, always be able to remove a group of enemies or a big one if it hits right, and everything else doesn't really matter.
>>537184348so is it good or bad they're changing that?
>>537184209Wait a minute, so you mean all of those gambits are meaningless since it's attacked immediately after a liberation?
Surely even their discord and reddit communities must be giving them shit for how bad and useless your impact feels after failing an objective they explicitly set up for us to win through nothing other than how the liberation system works, right?Not even they could justify being nice and sucking up to AH about this, right?
>>537184383badwhy give a community objective if you're just gonna let it succeed anyway, whether through giving players a shit ton of crutches to effectively force MO contribution or just straight up granting free progress like the last one

They litterally cannot stop attacking emeria until the MO is complete. They only have on direction towards super earth.

>>537184209My least favorite of Joel's bag of Svedkanese rigging trickery is the double attack. >oh I see you just pushed the enemy off this planet>uh they attack again with the same level of strength despite you just removing their forces from the planet It's so blatant.
I've been at work all day, what swedish tricks with the galactic war did I miss this time?
>>537184348>>537184523That seems unrealistic and railroaded though to prevent MO completion just because they were an inch away from victory
>>537184759>you need to reach this goal to win the MO>if you don't reach the goal, you lose the MOno?
>>537184483if the shitters who are all about the COOMUHNETEE do not make a fucking riot on how blatantly fucking obvious the forced uselessness of this piece of trash system is, then we're done
>>537184637>uh they attack again with the same level of strength despite you just removing their forces from the planetNigga we are being invaded by a three way full frontal attack, they didn't just run out of enemies when we defended the planet. This is war.

>Everybody predicted this.>When reinforcements arrive, the players will be split, so we can’t defend anything.>Joel can’t handle the dumb blob making the wrong decisions every time.I’d actually be mad if holding planets actually mattered.Imagine if we lost a booster and got a debuff for losing a specific planet, holy shit.

What's the most fun bug loadout?
>>537184348The difference is that those were honest failures rather than a failure born from an oversight in their design philosophies and blatantly unrealistic goals.The Leviathan kill order was fucked because they've done everything they can to make them instakill you from across the map, hard to take down so players treat them like a stage hazard so they're avoided, and limit their spawns at once. They then asked players to kill a ludicrous number of them, realised that was retarded, and lowered the number to something actually realistic, even then it was only really possible because people discovered a way to borderline glitch a mission by failing the objective and spending 30 minutes killing any that spawn with SPEARS and AT seats.The Charger kill order was fucked because if you played above a certain level Chargers don't spawn, harder Charger variants do, but the system wasn't programmed to count them as a Charger kill. When they realised this they raised Charger spawns on other difficulties to compensate for what higher level divers had already killed. But that didn't work because the game has a hard coded cap on Charger spawns, so you got spammed with INCREASED CHARGER NUMBERS DETECTED in the dispatch every 10 minutes despite the spawns never actually changing.Being handed the victory after that bullshit makes sense and doesn't feel rigged to me, because by every sensible right, we should have won on the Charger front and the Leviathan front was impossible from the start.

Reminder that the Gloom storyline took away the only snow biome that bugs had and they have done absolute jack shit with it. The snow planet opened up for one week and in almost two years we haven't seen it again. Inshallah Sweden shall burn.
>>537185851Railcannon
>>537185787That was pretty fun desu
>>537185851AMR, Commando, Jet Pack, FRV if I’m remembering Bungie Halo right. No idea what 343s done with them
>>537185787Oh yeah! Another case of an almost impossible order due to the way the game works. The railcanon locks on to bigger enemies and has almost no AOE so if you threw it at the troopers it wanted you to kill with it for the MO you'd never kill them because it'd lock onto the hulk a few meters away.It also has such a long cooldown you could get one kill with it every 3 minutes, so if you didn't get him, fuck you. The only way they made it somewhat bearable was to give everyone one for free so you could double up and hopefully kill them with it.I fucking hate Joel and his stupid fucking goals. They're all either bullshit or things that they expect you to succeed but are actually borderline impossibilities thanks to the way the game is designed.

>>537184523Are you retarded?
Can someone explain to me how we lost the gambit? I went to sleep with Terrek having 80 thousand divers liberating it but woke up to find out we lost it? How did we lose with that many people fighting there? That doesn't make sense.
>>537183796>lose bug killing part of the current MO>wow we need to redouble our efforts to kill bugs here's a bug MO and a bonus to liberating bug planets go into the gloom nowalternatively>win bug killing part of the current MO>great job killing all those bugs they're really scared now so there's a bonus to liberating bug planets and a bug MO to go into the gloom

I thought the game would be on sale due the collab, but it isn't, and my wild guess is that once the collab is over, the items won't be back ever again.

>>537186340Nice
Why yes, i will buy the machete and dive straight into caves with it.
>>537186247Nothing. As in, 4 didn't have them, 5 was going to with a horrible redesign but cut them, and Infinite had none of them either. You got some extra customization options for the player Spartans that take cues from ODST stuff, like the Firefall helmet which is pretty neat, but that's kind of it.

>>537183270do not fuck the terminids
>>537186876what are the odds they overhaul the melee system to include blocking and throwing?
>>537186681Just Doing doing doing what they do doing. Doing then doing they doing doing.
>>537185391generally you should obey the stated rules, but like if my players are having a rough time, it's definitely okay to let 1 point slide, or just provide an alternate outcome rather than "it 100% succeeds or 100% fails" with "it sort of worked/it succeeded but at a cost"
FUCK THE TERMINIDS
>>537186561Number of divers doesn't matter, it's entirely based on % of total population. Individual impact scales with player count.>that's retarded!We know.
>>537187114lol
>>537187137JOEL is doing it for every roll. We have about two months of "adjusted" MOs in a row.
>>537187028>they completely cut the most iconic baseline human infantry in the settingI assume that was due to their whole Spartan IV wank obsession but Christ how grim
>Bugs and bots have sub factions>Squids have gotten none despite being the focus of the Super Earth invasionDelete this dogshit faction already.
>>537187459They're coming after the DRG arc
>>537186276the bullshit part wasn't the fact that you had to kill troopers with it, it was that you had to kill a very specific trooper, namely the one with the basic laser riflerocket troopers, commissars, mg raiders, they didn't count towards the MO
>>537187313They should adjust joels employment status at AH
>>537187459If Sweden were smart (they are not) then the upcoming true Illuminate units would entirely replace the current garbage roster and we would see the Voteless relegated to a rarely used sub faction.
>>537187459mandatory ritual post of "bots should've invaded SE instead"
I love the way liberation works! It's so fun that 32% of all players diving on a single planet isn't enough because it's only counting percentages, not that there was over 55 thousand players working to liberate Terrek! It's so fun and makes me feel like I really contributed!
>>537187365There's characters in-universe that comment on Spartan-IVs just being cocky ODSTs in fancy armor, so yeah, the intent is pretty obvious after they killed the Rookie and made Buck a IV. Funny thing is ODSTs weren't even a normal Bungie creation: they were a book idea for elite unit stuff that John came into early conflict with, and when someone wanted to implement them in Halo 2 the team had internal debate about whether it'd be even worth bothering with trying to have something so minor from the books popping up in their games, unique models and everything in that hellish development cycle the game had.Then ODSTs ended up being one of the most memorable things of the franchise.
>>537187313You're completely ignoring the factor of Joel having to fudge the numbers because the goals he's set have all been retarded and unachievable for one reason or another.
>>537187724I also love it when my D10 missions with all objectives completed spits out a single point of war impact, the same as if I had completed a D1 mission
>>537186876>quickplay D3 to check out the noobdivers>clearing nest together>activate hellbomb backpack>dive into a bug hole>team wipe because they underestimated the size of the explosion

>>537185126>I’d actually be mad if holding planets actually mattered.>Imagine if we lost a booster and got a debuff for losing a specific planet, holy shit.We've had this before.They just hand it to us later.
>doing solo d10s for weapon xp>first two missions are fine and work out>third mission enemies have omnipresence and I spend more time fighting striders than completing objectives>fourth mission is "multiple patrols of hulks and shield devs spawn 20m from me all the time, the mission"Is there some kind of fucking alert level mechanic that makes missions progressively harder? I've noticed this soloing on lower difficulties too.
>it's another missile silo latch bug episode>>537187459They're barely even a full faction atm desu, I kinda hope the Cultist leaks stuff isn't a 'subfaction' in the sense of predbugs or incelbots but just added to the full pool of units that you may or may not see at times like bile spewers
Ah yes. The megacity experience.Waiting 40 seconds for your super destroy to reposition itself, to hit the side of a building.
I just want them to drop an MO requiring us to liberate a few planets and see how divided the playerbase is at the momentyou can't have meaningful coordination when 80% of your playerbase are total retards and newfags
Cityscape maps seem easiest for D10, especially defense ones. Sneakysuit, sneakypistol, crossbow, knives, jump pack, emp mortar, mortar, and whatever of your choice. Quite fun, quite easy. Duck and cover and choose your fights and take your time. I enjoy it a lot.
>>537187885If I spent two+ months doing bad work at my job and feeding weong numbers and massaging them after submitting them, i'd be fired. FIRE JOEL.
THANKS JOEL I'M HAVING SO MUCH FUN SPENDING A DAY D10 DIVING ON TERREK FOR 1 POINT OF IMPACT THANKS TO THE LIBERATION SYSTEM AND LOSING IT ANYWAY
>>537183979That's okay. You improve through adversity. Just have fun and keep cool. Either have a shield or jetpack for survivability, or supply pack to give yourself supplies (so you never need to use theirs), something like the AMR or Quasar Cannon to deal with isolated big events. Medium armor for balance of survivability and mobility. Basically anything that won't accidentally kill your team or take away resources for them or attract unwanted attention. Throw mortars or tesla towers or mines on the far, far flanks away from your team and not between object directions or escapes, since they'll always have value alerting you patrols.

WAVE YOU BASTARDS
>>537189956>When are they going to realize that gambits just don't work?Because that would require the swede to take personal accountability.
>>537189707I also noticed they dont have their mics always on like playstation players
>>5371871140, they've said multiple times that melee was a meme addition and that they have no intent on ever letting it be viable
>>537190150
>Never gets activated in time to prevent defenses>Only got use out of it like once during an MO>Active effect is one booster that people sometimes use optionallyHow would (you) change it?
>>537190369I wouldnt, because I dont interact with the DSS, and neither will the community.Eagle Storm should be changed to something else, even if its reducing the CD on Eagle stratagems or adding +1 to all eagle stratagems, anything but "diceroll on getting killed by it"
>>537187459my bet is on cult units being saved for squid homeworlds, and that all enemy faction homeworlds are coming during this next live update schedule
>>537190369make it pause defenses if the DSS is placed on the staging planet in the same way that eagle storm pauses defenses on the attacked planet
>>537187738>Spartan-IVs just being cocky ODSTs in fancy armorGod I hate the very concept of Spartan-IVs so muchThe whole deal about spartans was that they were a grossly unethically sourced, desperate attempt of the UNSC to create a kind of Wunderwaffe-infantry that could turn the tide of the human-covenant war. Spartans are supposed to be uncomfortable, borderline scary motherfuckers that are almost as alien to regular humans as the actual aliens due to their inhumane (heh) upbringing and massive cybernetic and chemical/biological augmentation, but then they made the goody-two-shoes IVs that throw everything that made spartans unique and cool away.The fact that their armor looked like it was made of plastic was perfectly representative, imo. God I hate 343i so much.
>>537189956They do it's just liberation that's fucked. It didn't work because liberating any planet only works when every single player converges for some stupid fucking reason. If you have 20K players each trying to stall for time on the attacked planets while 80K dive on the attacking planet in any game you would assume that to be a good tactical strategy that should work. But because of the way the galactic war works it actually hinders the gambit, and even if both of those planets were abandoned it still wouldn't work because the rest of the playerbase is defending a planet on the bot front.It's a retarded system that hampers any strategy that could ever occur naturally and any orders we're given with the expectation it should work.
>>537183635That example would actually be perfectly fine, you shouldn't be able to get something until you hit the quota. The ACTUAL issue was that the "Kill Chargers" part meant only REGULAR Chargers, not the Spore or Behemoth Chargers that were killed in more massive droves than even regular chargers.Going back the shopkeeper example, a good DM would say "You know what? I'll give you this item on a discount, BUT you have to go fetch me this thing in return!" All Joel needed to do was add a secondary objective for killing Behemoths that would boost Charger numbers, and it would have felt completely reasonable instead of cheap.
>>537189956never because they don't play the game and believe they fail because of players' skill issue, in fact they belive the system is so good that they went ahead and further complicate it with the Megacity liberation system
>>537184589Joel can, has, and will add/remove warp routes as he pleases.
>>537190369Have it slow defenses in progress to give players more time or make liberation higher on planets getting invaded so it's actually worth something.With the first option a defense that's already a quarter or halfway through would actually have a chance rather than being a hopeless waste of time you can't do anything against like it is in most cases where the playerbase didn't focus on it the second it happened.
>>537190170PS5 has a mic in the controller that defaults to always on
>>537190369>How would (you) change it?Glass the planet. Turns it into neutral territory that is controlled by neither side.
>>537189956Just stop giving a shit about the gayass galactic war, it stopped mattering once this game became too mainstream
>>537191407>it stopped mattering once this game became too mainstreamSo when the game came out?
>>537191284why are the nips trying to listen to me masturbate?
>>537191407That's one of the major parts of the game though.
I'm starting to believe that the swede himself doesn't know how liberation or resistance works, so that's why he will never give additional info on what the fuck that is at all.HD1 simply had "Influence", and you needed a certain amount to take or defend a planet, while in H2, they're more free to throw in whatever the fuck they want and slightly change the numbers when they believe nobody is watching.Given, as long they're supporting the game, they will never give us a truly organic and player-driven galactic war, but a narrative campaign where the player can decide to interact with it or not.
vgh I had a dream of an ace combat DLC for helldivers 2 dogfighting bot fighters.https://youtu.be/bcgqoDnNvHQ?t=14
>>537187137I'd just follow "rule of cool" sometimes just to let the players have their fun. Failing checks is a bitch, so I do lend leniency by letting them have some affect rather than nothing depending on the situation.
DSS abilities shouldn't have a cooldown. The second they end you should be able to donate again. Also give people something to spend Super Samples on.

Bugniggers, your front is collapsing. Botchads and squidgods are holding strong. The squid killcount is done and bots will be over soon. You're not even going to be close to getting your kills done. Why are you failing so hard?

they should adjust the ce-101 guerilla gorilla helmet, because it actually looks cool but it doesn't really fit any other armor due to it's weird proportions. the next best fit is the ce-27 ground breaker armor, but even that looks kinda weird.

>>537197776You misunderstand. Lowest RPM is so I can sustain fire longer without a reload and not waste bullets. Most chaff die to a few MG rounds but higher RPMs will inevitably lead to you wasting a few on an enemy corpse. Give it a try on bugs when you're focusing on chaff. Hell even on low it doesn't feel that much longer to kill hive guards, brood commanders, and stalkers. If you do run into a pinch, not like you can't just flip it up to max for a bit.

>>537200339light penetration isn't to be used solely on its own, but instead works as an efficiency combo with other items. medium penetration may be more readily usable for a lot of threats, but are supposed to be tougher to use as compensation for that like ammunition and ergo/recoil.
>>537198294Okay retard. The point of language is communication. I can use google translate to call a chinaman a nigger and that's perfect for my use case. It's a crude, low thing I wanted to deliver. However if I wanted to live in China and immerse myself in Chinese culture I couldn't crutch on AI. For a higher concept of Chinese, I'd still go get tutored from someone who knows Chinese and knows the culture.Likewise, the point of art is human expression, and let's not pretend that's not the case. if someone wanted to use AI sloppa to make quick portraits of DnD characters or as a shitpost, that's great. They can deliver their low concept without having to jump over artistic hurdles . But there's no point in AI making any kind of higher art. It's a tool and nothing more.

The root of all artfags' hatred for AI is that they spent months if not literal years, and money investing i to developing art as a "skill". The biggest piece of their own identity is that they could make a cute and funny picture while tou couldn't.But now you can. All that time and effort, and you simply surpass - even obsolete it - with a few typed words. AI directly punches them where it hurts them the most: in their overinflated egos.

The reality is that people dont care how long or hard you worked on something, people just want a nice picture. AI video and motion is bad because its obvious and looks bad. But once it starts improving, nobody will care. Which is why in helldivers 2, AI is a thing thats widespread across all colonies.

soon the xbox players will metamorphize into drooling bugdivers... such is the fate of console plebs
>>537203191
Words cannot express how much I fucking hate Joel and his railroaded forced losses. Nobody fucking likes losing so many goddamned planets by stretching the Blob across literally a half-dozen active defending planets. Even more so when he arbitrarily takes away the only tool we have to counteract this bullshit.We have literally lost TWENTY THREE FUCKING PLANETS as a direct result of Joel's bullshit in the last ten days. I am SUPER FUCKING PISSED that not even the addition of the Halo shit is worth it. Of all the ways to "celebrate" the addition of a new platform, this was literally the worst way they could have done it, make the players eat shit for a week straight and then forcing them to eat half as much shit again because those stupid fucking attacks don't actually stop when we hit the kill count.Joel needs to have a fucking sulfuric acid enema, several consecutive ones in fact. Fuck all this bullshit.
Bugs do NOT have eyes. Stop drawing them with eyes. They are NOT cute.
>>537209535Seggs with bugs
>>537204919Warp pack means I no longer have to waste time calling for a retarded pub to come open a bunker that I know has SCs in it because I leave the arrow mod on while playing. That alone is worth every bit of pain that comes from having to rely on solely the Commando for my AT because the swiggers have yet to make a reloadable AP5 weapon that doesn't take a backpack slot, other then the Epoch which is somehow even worse.
I don't care about any of that BUT THE TYRANNY PARK 2FAMILY AND I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FORWARD TO IT AHHH
>>537209758>the swiggers have yet to make a reloadable AP5 weapon that doesn't take a backpack slotthe railgun is AP5, reloadable, and doesn't take a backpack slotor you can bring the quasar

>>537209535What is this fat fuck's purpose? And don't say to be part of a +6 kill streak with just one shot of an Eruptor.
>>537209812You can blame Joel for that too. Who the fuck forces a gambit when it's well-established knowledge that the Blob can't gambit worth a shit due to a combination of terrible user interface and AH refusing to actually address the problem of the gambit system being poorly explained and incentivized.
>>537210028Sex with me
>>537209732Bugs cute :3
>>537209674I wouldn't even be as mad if he didn't fucking attack like 6 planets at once. The fucking swedish dickhead knows that it isn't even fair. We have ZERO chance to do that even if everyone played perfectly. Forced loss upon forced loss with zero lore reason, completely fucking made up unrealistic enemy numbers all to beat the playerbase down for no reason.Joel defenders always say "we're working with him to tell his story" well where the fuck is the part where he gets the memo that he isn't here to BEAT US. A good GM knows that yes, it's a fucking collaborative experience and you don't just play the enemies you also play the players allies. Joel isn't just the fucking terminids he's also high command. Where the fuck are the troop surges? Where's the strategic advantages we can take to flank and burn out enemy reinforcements? Where's fucking anything other than "you will lose all these planets and like it." This is a lot of people's first exposure to the galactic war and the only message they get out of it is "wow defenses are totally pointless because we haven't succeeded a single fucking one, and the ones we did were immediately undone or we lost 20 other planets in that time span".Joel is the worst fucking GM for this role and most people with functioning brains could do a better job. I know I could.
>>537210086>gambitIt's useless, they'll immediately attacked it after just like the bot

>>537209950Railgun doesn't deal AP5 levels of damage, you're shooting the exact same targets you would be with an AP4 weapon, and the Queso needs either the cooldown or charge time reduced, as well as the particle effects that make the FPV unusable gone.
>>537209535>>537209738I am... weirdly aroused by this. Should i kill myself?
I think helldivers should say "fuck" more. I think it would be cool.
>>537209963>>537210326D10 - Botssteam://joinlobby/553850/109775242311354518/76561198886757965Sorry, forgot to change it to public
What if they made light pen chip away enemy armour? So that you waste more ammunition but still are able to take down greater target
>>537210387>Railgun doesn't deal AP5 levels of damageIt deals 1500 damage a shot off safe, what the hell are you talking about? The only issue it faces is durability, but 2-3 shots will still kill anything without much difficulty. 4 to the head for bile titans at 85% charge, for example
>>537210636I've always thought that AP-1 should slowly strip away that section of armor. But that would probably require a complete overhaul of every enemy model in the game to be able to strip armor plates off of them.
>>537210572FULL
>>537210387>Railgun doesn't deal AP5 levels of damageit's literally AP5 though? and having high peentration doens't inherently mean high damage. the sterilizer is AP5 and we all know it does basically zero direct damageunless, wait...anon... heavy AT like the commando is AP6, not 5.
Made this just for you anon.
>>537210636That's what beam weapons do currently
>>537210505Nah, it's normal.
>>537210743Yea right we can't expect that from Swigger, but I imagine it would depend on the base damage of the weapon, like the tenderizer would maybe take 5-6 bullets before actually starting to damage an enemy on a particular spot while other light pen damage weapon take more bullets
they should add a melee weapon slot so you dont have to sacrifice your secondary
>>537210891where did you get that idea? because it just simply isn't true.
>>537210743There are no AP1 weapons currently in Helldivers 2
>>537210257The funniest part about this is, the HD2 official Discord explicitly says that users aren't allowed to bitch and whine about players not participating on MO planets or factions. WELL, THEN FUCKING MAKE THE MOS POSSIBLE TO WIN WITHOUT THEM. DON'T CREATE THIS SITUATION WHERE YOU ONLY MAKE A WIN POSSIBLE IF LITERALLY 90% OF EVERYBODY PITCHES IN, AND THEN PUNISH US FOR COMPLAINING WHEN THEY DON'T.Like seriously, at a certain point everybody should just boycott MOs in general and focus down a single faction regardless of everything. Just let the bullshit flow and put it all on public display. Let Joel take all those planets on the path to Super Earth, we know he won't have the balls to actually let us lose because there are no game files to allow it to happen. And when we're about to wipe a faction off the map, let him arbitrarily jack up the numbers to deny us our win, show everybody how fucking petty Joel is and that there really is zero player agency.
>>537211004I just wanted to spread misinformation for fun
>>537211065I literally have never paid attention to any MO ever
>>537209215nobody cares about mo, friend
>>537210683Yes, durable is the issue, glad you realize. Dealing high damage doesn't matter if the practical effect on target is low damage because of the funny damage penalty. You can kill a BT to the face faster by dumping the arc grenade launcher despite the arc damage being AP4, for example, instead of needing to spend a solid like 12 seconds charging RG shots, much less a pair of Commando rockets in a quarter second. It being AP5 doesn't matter when it doesn't deal the damage required to kill AP5 weakspots like the Strider head in a timely manner, but instead you go for the lower AP targets like the chinguns into bellyrubs.>>537210796Gomen, but you understood what I mean. All the other high penetration weapons have high damage without getting cucked by durability, other then the Epoch which is also cucked by explosive damage immunity.
How DARE they sully our delicious affordable naturally artificially flavored soft drinks!

Do the evac high value missions get better past diff 7 or it just a absolute snoozer even at d10?
>>537210289you better watch your six nigga
>>537211065We're closer to that than you think. We're never going to coordinate, but I'm pretty sure a lot of people have given up on defenses, and outright don't play squids anymore. The new players will have changed that, but once the shine wears off and we're back to the regulars, people will probably just let the enemies push to Super Earth because they know nothing they do matters. Great job squandering the coolest mechanic in the game you Svedkanese retards.
>>537211463It's a complete snooze fest no matter the difficulty

>>537211506Chargers are secretly the sneakiest enemy in the entire game. The amount of times I've thought I killed one, only for it to turn out that they were staying completely still for 10 seconds, playing dead until I turn around so they can ram my asshole is insane.

>>537211363>All the other high penetration weapons have high damage without getting cucked by durability,the arc thrower is AP7 and only does 250 normal damage and 100 durable damagewhat you want is something with the power, immediacy, and reloadability of the recoilless rifle but without the backpack commitment. do you understand how that would instantly obsolete every other AT weapon and be overpowered as fuck?

>>537212112No, I'd be quite happy with a Commando I could shove new rockets into, and if they want to cut down the mag size from 4 down to 2 if stationary reloading or 1 if they let me reload it on the move, I'd be ecstatic but even a single shot with a stationary reload would be acceptable.
>>537212224>I wish it would suck more!
>>537211738>brute-looking enemy is actually the smartestkino
>>537212224Dropping in to multiple overlapping jammers is the one time the game is actually challenging.
>>537212360Hell, give me an Ultimatum rifle with a larger ammo pool, and I'd be happy.
>>537212057Terminids seem to be an odd mix of termites, crabs, and mantises, which is cool.>Now I wonder how warrior chan tastes...Considering the crablike similarities, as well as the existence of Bugfest, my guess would be that they taste like crustaceans with a tingly acidic aftertaste and mouthfeel. It would probably be kind of like how people describe eating fugu, which is a poisonous pufferfish that makes your whole mouth feel numb and tingly.

The halo shotty fucking kicks ass on bugs, holy shit it's amazing
I could run this war so much better than Joel it isn't even funny. Current situation:>we are beset on all sides>SEAF forces mass mobilized to the outer systems >they can only reinforce 2 of the 3 fronts at a time, and the Helldivers must hold the third>Helldivers due to their elite status and advanced weapons are expected to not only hold the line but push back the advance >stratagem cooldowns are reduced, and additional buffs are unlocked with each planet taken>to halt the attacks, we must locate the source of the troop surges on each front and liberate the planet>this means we have to focus on an enemy front, deal with their attacks, and press into their territory>community gets to choose which front to attack, based on the location of the DSS. SEAF will hold the line in the other fronts.>once the source of the enemy surge is eliminated, it is reinforced with SEAF, stabilizing the front for the time being >rinse and repeat for the other two factions>throw in some curve balls on the last faction to spice things up like an old school pop-up illuminate invasion on a strategic asset that gives a debuff until we clear itAs a result you have a dynamic and player driven major order that makes it feel like we are indeed being beset on all sides, but Super Earth has a plan and all we gotta do is show up and do our part. Wow. That took all of 15 minutes to cook up. Fuck you Joel.

the shotgun is SHIT
My keybinds are sub-optimal. Is it true that the game gets fucky on recording your keypresses if you bind both fire-mode (hold R) and reload (tap R) because it is unsure about how long you're actually pressing the key? I've had instances where panic spamming R doesn't reload in the heat of the moment.Please send help.
>>537213153The halo shotgun deals "more" damage, but it is not enough to kill anything in less pumps than the punisher, so it is the punisher with less ammo.
>>537213317The combined IQ of the bugs is higher. They have tactics like playing dead and standing on their tippy toes so the dogshit sound design conceals their movements (bile titans and chargers)
>>537213317as per usual I think situations like this come to be through people not caring rather than being unable to understand the complex process of filling bars like a Korean mmo zombie
>>537212360what you've described is the epoch. with only a few exceptions it has the same breakpoints as the commando. the most relevant exceptions are:annihilator tank turret front needing 3 shots instead of 2war strider leg joints needing 2 shots instead of 1harvester hip joints needing 2 shots instead of 1 (but pops the shield in 1 shot instead of needing 2 like the commando so if you're brute forcing through it it equals out to the same number of shots)charger, bile titan, and impaler heads are the same for both commando and epochcharger ass is the samehulks eye, body, and heatsink are the sametank turret/hull rears are the samefactory strider eye, foot, and belly is the same

>>537213607The Epoch needs to have a significantly increased margin of safety for it to be worth the tradeoff of needing the awkward amount of 2 of your 3 in the magazine as well as requiring a substantial amount of charge time. Having the quarter of second between doing nothing and blowing up not only yourself, but the gun as well so you're out your support weapon until it cools down, so that if you get flinched and reflexively wait for your aim to settle makes it complete trash, even if you put the time in to master the rhythm to the charging. It requires you to unlearn good habits and muscle memory of not wasting single shots into the ground in order to not kill yourself, which is why I noted that it's even worse the relying on the Commando.
What planet should I be focusing on? Bot front or Bugs?

>>537214796Its been days, its not that hard to unlock the difficulties.
I'd play megacities more if they didn't shit my performance down the drain.
Epoch should have been a backpackless autocannon with similar accuracy and range as well as bonus ap5 for a perfect charge. Also a fast running reload. We didn't need another AT option.
>>537214796Back when I was leveling when the game first came out, I found out after the fact a quickjoin was like a level 7 or something, but I just went with it. I believe the quickjoin system will shove you into the next higher level mission automatically once you beat the level before it, at least that seemed to be my experience. So he probably just got carried up to that level
>>537215018ive never had a performance issue in the cities or any of the other places people have issues with performance, and all I do is quickjoin, so its not my system (7800X3D/4090)
>>537214872Then I agree that "i don't like them and won't do them" is a "me problem" and you should leave me to never drop in cities as it is literally not your problem.
>>537212850All I wanted was a good gun against blobs and it isn't that, so it may as well not exist.
>>537215226that's a pretty good systemHD2 is a memory hog on PC, my theory is that it overstrains GPUs with standard 16gb VRAM, they seem to hit their ceiling with the 11-13ish GB this game occupies at any given moment plus driver overhead
>>537215519playing on an rtx 2080 super and an i7-6700 here, a shit ass 2016 rig and a HDD that for some reason has near-identical load times to my Steam Deck's SSD on this gameaccording to steam metrics overlay, this thing is using less than half of my GPU, but trying to utterly clock out my CPU to its max basically all the time. it's obvious that the CPU is just too damn old to keep up with more modern games, but also highlights just where all that workload is going.
>>537211506>you better watch your hecking six, chud!!!
>>537215519>my theory is that it overstrains GPUs with standard 16gb VRAM,helldivers is more CPU intensive than it is GPU intensive

>>537215958not according to my testing. Before I upgraded I was GPU bottlenecked on a zen3 CPU (5900X)

>>537183504Yes? Who the fuck wants a player driven story. You dumb fags spam BUGDIVER BUGDIVER but if this was driven by 1. Players take planet 2. Devs make future content over that conflict then you would ALL be forced to play Bugdivers 2 24/7. What sort of dumb, retarded, botfag would want a fucking player driven story and content. Fucking morons.
>>537216003Define need. Light armor is objectively the best armor, doesn't mean you can't run around as a slow-shit and not win though. Skill/Brain > Gear.
>>537211363>It being AP5 doesn't matter when it doesn't deal the damage required to kill AP5 weakspots like the Strider head in a timely manner, but instead you go for the lower AP targets like the chinguns into bellyrubs.Except it does, you just aim for different weakspots than the ones you'd waste explosives on. Obviously it's not the best against bugs, but against squids and bots it's phenomenal. You'll kill anything short of a war strider in one shot, and you'll kill them in 3, tanks in 4. Striders you do like you said, and they're not even a threat. For its ammo economy and uptime, it's insane. 21 shots that'll kill a hulk guaranteed and'll deal with anything else, that doesn't need a backpack, that doesn't rely on a cooldown, is an insanely strong weapon
>>537216336nta but almost everyone ITT could write up a more interesting and engaging galactic war than Joel ever didI know it's compelling to believe that Arrowhead knows best, but that's cope. we do.

>>537215752>spoilerI've no doubt that the swedes intentionally did some fuckery that's causing load times to be bottlenecked by something else in your PC. It would make too much sense.Not the first time I've heard of this, either.

>>537215752>>537216896>spoilerI've seen people say the reason the game is so huge is because assets are duplicated so it can be loaded from multiple locations at once to speed up loadtimes on HDDs so they're closer to SSD speed (but do nothing but hog space if you're on SSD)

>>537216420I don't see what Epoch can add to bots when EAT carries 100% of the AT workload on that front without issue. Neither squids where AT will never make any sense since squids are shit tier game design that can be mowed down with an MG43 and zero brain power involved.

What is it with newfags and throwing napalm into mega nests
>>537217180Gimme a sec im finishing eating something
>>537217267newfags and retards are signified by their desire to "killmog"
>New Aspiration City's liberation slowly losing momentum as more and more people log off or gravitate to the bugfront.I fully expect it to be lost by the end of this MO. The some 40k people on that planet doing wasteland operations instead of city operations aren't helping, either.

>>537216745its just a better sterilizer desu
>>537217267Because it culls medium chaff which is the majority of what you'll be facing.
Gentlemen, I am pleased to announce the first design of the upcoming interfaction event this christmas.
Redpillme on portable hellbomb. Can I bring it to every mission?I like using guard dogs
>>537217247I'm talking about the railgun dude. An EAT struggles when there's large groups of high AP enemies, especially on d10 with gunship patrols. The rg will be able to rip through gunships no problem, can mow down hulks by the dozen, and if you're struggling to hit crotches, can disarm war striders and make them a non-threat. I do agree that the high ap isn't warranted against squids, but that's why you just use the eruptor, which is basically a support weapon already
>>537217118whatno it isn't, not unless you take consoles (trash tech) as a baseline which you shouldn't
>I'm gonna join some lower level lobbies and help some of the newbie xbox players I think>join first lobby>dude afk on picking drop in point for 5 minutes, leave>join second lobby>0/5 revives, dies within 10 seconds after I drop in, he leaves>join third lobby>get kicked within 5 seconds>join fourth lobby>0/5 revives, he threw down an ammo resupply and stood under it>he died, leftit has been nearly a half hour with this stupid fucking game open and I haven't even gotten to play it yet

Halo Reach City>architecture has a modern feel and looks alive despite having very few npcs>levels are diverse and have vertical elements to promote different approachesHelldivers 2 City>glorified commie blocks that feel abandoned even with npcs running around>levels are flat and homogeneous procedural generation offering the same experience every time
>>537217758Well sorry about taking you for the Epoch coper then. I love the railgun, it's the most underrated support weapon, but as a default heckdumpers will hate any weapon that requires accuracy and prefers ranged shots.
>>537217267Just hopped into a game where they're dumping them *outside* the nest, at the tail-end of a breech, all 3 of them
>>537217692Do you want me to stop making these? I'm kinda having fun doing this
>>537217180Fuck off we're FVLL
>>537217053the crazy thing is looking at PS5 and XSX footage, the loading time is basically comparable to the Steam Deck SSD or my HDD. yeah, it has streaming issues, sometimes character models don't load in properly for a few seconds which is how i found out the democratic officer's head is a separate asset from his body, but whatever black magic bullshit is going on with this engine means everyone basically has the same load times unless you're on a REALLY bad HDD.
>>537218092This one actually fits lol I'd fucking hate a ragdoll fiesta charger
>>537218059Agreed, but I do wish that arrowhead would bump up durable damage for both it and the amr a tad. It's pretty ridiculous that the only thing really preventing either one from being actually useful in more cases is durability. I think making the rg hit dura for 800 at max charge and the amr hit equally hard on either side would be fine
>>537217978That would require them to redesign the city blocks again, please understand.
>>537217978It's the architectural design difference by human beings and the other by subhuman swedes. What did you expect, seriously? From the people that gave us IKEA?
>>537218092also no man my doodles are property of the people as well, it's the democratic thing ofc
Remember Helldiver, Warrior-chan IS cute and the E-710 that she WILLINGLY and GENEROUSLY donates to the cause helps you spread Democracy throughout the galaxy!lobby doko
>>537218327Indeed it's a real problem but fully intended by Arrowhead. I fully expect durable nerfs on autocannon and further durable nerfs on HMG one day so oner than later, citing "their vision" as the reason.
>>537217267Because in a better game that would actually be a good idea.
>>537218728Cute!
Next dispatch: free tesla towerNext dispatch: free eagle cluster
>>537217683*stands around the edges of the nest for 70 seconds* yeah
>>537217517How did they fuck that up so bad,
Does the token from the Super citizen edition just unlocks the warbond and doesn't give you anything from it right?
>>537218769how did a post from 14 months ago end up in this thread?

Man i just love when a bug comes out of a bughole and bounces my grenade back at me.

>>537220650Why do they make the game like that?
>>537220154We know that feel well.
>>537220665she looks like she fucks fleshmobs
>Flame AK not in Freedom's flame>EAT-700 Napalm not in Freedom's flame>Gas speargun not in Chemical Agents>Missile silo not in Democratic Detonation I wish they'd just add stuff like that to the existing ones instead of putting them in unrelated slopbonds but MONEY.

>>537220721holy giga shitter
>>537218769I wouldn't call it a "real" problem, because it's a good way of balancing it. The rg being able to deal damage to durable things would make it eclipse just about anything else instantly again. I don't think the ac will catch nerfs because it's an explosive gun, and the mgs not being able to do durable damage is okay since they're great against the squids instead. I think a small bump to the rg would be fine, since it'd make war striders prime prey for it over more AT spam, and a big bump to the dura for the AMR would make it great against bots still.
>>537220665I made another one>>537220894It's good stuff, fuck AI fags and even if the guy did illuminate tattoo it's still 100 times more respectable than the AI illuminate cuck

The de-escalator is an S tier support weapon, yet I don't see that many people even use it. I don't get it.
>>537221451Reloading one by one is gay
>>537214245GG
SEAF-chan was built for futa helldivers
>>537190369Make it so that it also activates deep space LIDAR scanning or whatever the fuck so that players can see what enemy attacks are about to occur, like you can see a planet about to be invaded by bots in say, T minus 2 hours, and players can move the DSS blockade preemptively
>>537214245gg
>>537210221I have never played this game, but I'm tempted to add a bug preserve to my current project. It is now on The List.
>>537221483That barely even registers to me because I've been playing Demoman in TF2 since 2008. That cyclops of a man reloads more than he shoots explosives at people.
>>537221494concerningly explosive trvth bomb
>>537221298>by making fanart of an ai image>he's never seen the coretta news reportsAnon? Your cope?
>>537221681Problem is that the reload cycle for demo isn't exceptionally slow and involve pumping out the used shells every time you fire it. You also reload automatically in tf2, in helldivers you have to manually do it
>taking the light killzone armor vs incendiary corp>experimental infusion>out of ammo, reloading>go prone and stim>a flamethrower and devastator blasting me from 10ft can't kill meI AM A GOD

>>537221824
>>537220095Cookout + Senator/Talon
>>537221451Can it harm war striders? I've been taking it on bots but it only seemed to stun a war strider, and then for some reason the war strider stopped getting stunned by it, like each strider can only be stunned once.
>>537221926What about Meet n Fuck Kingdom 36
Why the fuck are stingrays spawning in level 1 missions? Why would you do this to brand new players?

>>537221926lol
>>537209215Even with 120k players working on the gambit it barley scratched the surface. All of the bug defense shit is rigged to push the next update. Literally none of this matters, this is Joel's world and we're just living in it.
>>537221345I got you
>>537214245ggs bros
>>537222093Pisses me off that the number of players liberating a planet means nothing if it's not the majority. The entire system sucks ass once you go over a certain number of players.
>>537221852>You also reload automatically in tf2That wasn't a thing on release. Us TF2 boomers had to actually press R to reload back then.

Is this game the best cooperative shooter since L4D2?
>>5372223452/4 get in nao
How come there's no fanfics about a diver on earth saving coretta kelly during the squid invasion and getting left behind after evac, forcing them to have to band together to survive and escape the doomed megacity, falling in love and then having the dirtiest most insane sex imaginable as a culmination of their triumphs?
>>537222686lmao, we got a bunch of solotrannies who will tell you otherwise
Is the light gunner set any good? It's essentially a medium armor with better speed and stamina as its passive, no?
>>537222686>cooperativeuh?Hellsissies wouldn't last a single second in L4D2. That actually forces the players stay together and cooperate
I am quickly souring on the coretta kelly coomers

The Tenderizer just looks right in an ODST's hands.
What is it about anon's Coretta that was erotic enough to provoke such lust?
telefragging a bug should chain-kill nearby bugs because of the e710 reaction
I just realized I wasted almost 2000 hours of my life to this game
>>537224187sloppa elicits an instinctive reaction in brownoids
>>537224187>tanned>busty>dick sucking lipsIt's not that hard to figure out why
>>537217720I'll black pill you. The slot you took for porta bomb coulda been any other mass area clear strat. But if you're confident in not wearing a backpack slot, it's pretty fun with lighter armor. It will kill jammers and you will be THE DUDE for that, along with everything else that dies to hellbombs. It's also pretty funny with democracy protects. It doesn't ragdoll you if you go prone, so you can 50/50 the explosion pretty reliably

Sometimes I actually want to take it slow on missions And absorb whatever storytelling the map wants to give me. But other players and that stupid time limit for missions really puts pressure for me to just sprint to each objective every time And get out as fast as possible
