Split & Solo Diver EditionPrevious: >>537228749>WHAT IS HELLDIVERS 2?HELLDIVERS 2 is a 2024 crossplay, co-op, squad-based, PvE 3rd person shooter for PC, PS5 and XBox Series X/S where players fight against hordes of alien insects, robots and squids to Spread Democracyâ„¢. 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.playstation.com/en-us/games/helldivers-2/https://www.xbox.com/en-us/games/store/helldivers-2/9mx9wn9dfpgt>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.

first for FUCK SWEDEN
second for TOTAL BUG DEATH
what's the problem with Sweden? they see to have a pretty good work life balance going, being mad at that just seems like envy really
TOTAL FRONTLINE COLLAPSE
>>537280056good taste
>>537280305man lives to work"work life balance" is just postmodern speak for wanting the prestige of a profession without dedicating yourself to it
>>537280436no... man works to live.work worth doing is not work.
How DARE the enemy suck our well-lubed cocks?
>>537280379As you. You've my blessings, Helldiver. May we get to fight alongside eachother sometime soon.
>>537280545not identifying with the thing you spend the majority of your life doing is incredibly asinine and depressingif you don't enjoy your job you ought to find something else to do
>>537280436>"work life balance" is just postmodern speak for wanting the prestige of a profession without dedicating yourself to itwhat a load of bullshit. its so bad in the modern era, that there can be a legitame argument made that fucking no rights slave serfs had more days off than the modern man. unless you want to call people who worked the land lazy, youre retarded.
>>537280379that's a child out of 10!
>>537280646you don't understand because you are a protestant retard
how do I find chink lobbies spawning SC?
>>537280684I'm completely irreligious, it's just perfectly obvious to me that anti-work sentiment leads to a lack of identity and self-worth
Just jacked off to the titty fungi on Fort Union, lads.
Can we just make the bugs faster than the player character? Hunters should not be able to be outpaced with normal running they're fucking HUNTERS. Every bug should be, at minimum, the same speed as you with most of them being faster.>scavs and leapersMatch running speed. Fodder. Who cares.>HunterMatch sprinting speed, maybe a little faster. They should be able to pressure you at all times with the jumping and catching up if you aren't paying attention since they fold like a wet noodle.>WarriorFaster than your sprint but not by much. This should be the meat of the pack, fuck you dead if they get to you. Constant pressure threat. Alphas should be faster flat out. If you're letting alpha brood commanders hang back and spam them consistently, then you have a skill issue and should lower the difficulty.>GuardsSprint match. Fair considering their current behavior of hunkering down.>Brood commandersI think they should BARELY outpace your sprint, keep their alpha variant the same as the normal in speed. Their threat should be bringing in more, not in them killing you themselves. Their charge is really good pressure though as is.>SpewersThey seem fine as is. Especially the biles. Maybe make nursery spewers constantly bring in leapers and scavs around them while they live, every few seconds spawn another pair.>Shriekers and StalkersFine as is. Add them into the base spawn pool as well though, the shriker patrols are cool but they should be regular on bug planets. Stalkers should come with breeches on higher diffs, just a couple.>ChargersThey're mostly fine as is, maybe they need to bowl over regular bugs if they're mid charge. I still hate their turning speed mid charge though.>TitansMake them stronger. I miss them being a threat. AT is so strong as is they barely exist unless you're retarded and bring absolutely nothing to kill them. Maybe we need an alpha variant for higher diffs like behemoths to chargers.
>>537280790and yet you are protestant
>>537280839'ate clankers'ate buggers'ate squidsluv me fartin tittiessimple as
>>537280912you're copingyou should stop playing vidyer games and go find your purpose
Halo shotgun is perhaps the only shotgun i find fun to shoot.
>>537280867Making the bugs faster would make them unplayably annoying, fuck off.
>>537281321>waa waa i cannot allow the enemies that can't even shoot back catch up to me and live up as the melee faction
>>537281051it's a reference to ye olde weber's the protestant work ethic
>>537281321lower the difficulty
>join game>can hear the host mouthbreathing and mashing the buttons on his controller>return to shipwill I get shadowbanned or something for doing this? it's happening a lot
>>537281563I know, I just don't respect the notion because Swedes are practically the arch-protestants of the world yet diligence seems to be a foreign and dangerous concept to them.
>>537281617Turn off Crossplay mayhaps?
>>537281858he's german
What's a good combo for going majority gas? I want to use the Gas Dog, Grenade, and Mines.Do laser weapons trigger gases interaction with its secondary fire ability?
>>537280867Every modern bug complaint i see is shitters want to nerf pred strain, normal stalkers and headless brood commanders because theyre the 4 bugs that can keep up with and punish lightdivers for playing like they can just run away
imagine unironically and willingly wearing medium or heavy armor
>>537282508tsmt
>>537282274>Do laser weapons trigger gases interaction with its secondary fire ability?
>>537282274it's not smart to be doing only one type of damage when you can stack fire, gas, arc, explosions, etc. unless you want to do the bare minimum dps and not an iota more you should diversify your loadout for as much target flexibility, range, area of effect, and dps as you can
>>537281474Its always cute how termanigger apologists insist that all you have to do is run like Stamina and ammo limits and a 3D map environment with basic terrain just aren't factors.>>537281567>posts a meme that applies strictly to D5 and below gameplayThe intellectual dishonesty is adorableAll I need to do in order to go deathless against bots is equip the shieldpack and bring an RR and medium pen primary and boom, barring the terrain fucking up or just getting caught in the middle of a snow map with 0 cover for 100 meters in any direction, you're practically invulnerable Against bugs D10? You'll need light armor and a jump pack for any hope of success in not being killed a minimum of 2-3 times, and you'll need to be working with your team the entire way and looking behind you every 10-15 seconds.Deathless against preds?You can do literally everything right and its still going to get you killed, you go deathless if the game lets you. Full stop.
All projectile based weapons should have heat sync conversation kits unlockable through weapon leveling.
>>537283220nobody mentioned bots until you did, insecure bugniggeryes bots are too easy as wellbring both factions back to what they a were 18 months ago
>>537283220>>537283353also I have soloed d10 preds deathless, it's not complicated with the right kitbrapdog trivializes them, so does blitzer, so does anything with stagger force, and they don't spawn enough heavies, which are just always too bitch made even when they show up in decent numbers
>bugs are so easy guys they're so so easyYea thats why the other two factions MO requirments were done in half a week and the bugs has been dragging and only now picking up now that there are no other options.The /hdg/ narrative that bugs are easy noob-fodder is not backed up in-game at all, its insane how delusional you people are about nids
>>537283572have you ever allowed yourself the thought that you're just not that good at the game or didn't think your playstyle through? because that's what everyone reading your posts is suspecting
>>537283516>blitzerYou've gotta be trolling, stunlocking doesn't matter when you've got 2-4 one combo KO stalkers charging at you at any given moment, you need raw DPS and volume of fire to kill them as fast as they spawn in.
>>537283827it stops stalkers dead, anon
>>537283704Oh yea anon its all my fault of course, its purely a skill issue, thats why the entire player base outside of this cope factory of a general seems to agree with me, even if they won't admit it. Actions are what matter, and the fact is that when Joel sharts preds all over the board, people don't wanna play bugs.
>>537283986even plebbit generally finds predditors fair and balancedthey appreciate the melee menace that regular bugs lost during the great hunter lobotomization(You) are definitely coping
>bring ac mech>entire bug front is solved
>fleshmobseasy>predatorseasy>warstriderscan pose minimal trouble if they show up in numbers larger than 3, but that's very rare and still easily managed with a few good thermite throws and AT yeetsif you're having regular trouble with any of these you've been filtered full stop

>>537285227imma do it imma post it againmy dream faction: dissidentsin a better world they play exactly as followschaff: rebel, light armor, a bit more resilient than a bot trooper, knives for melee, semi auto guns, chucks HEs at youbetter chaff: terrorist, may chuck special grenades like incendiary and stuns at you, has a rusty liberator and better melee damagemedium: devastator, medium armored MG unit, one type with ballistic shield, one with an RPG (Commando would be fitting), etcmedium to heavy: helldiver, always spawns in squads, assorted backpacks, better heavy weapons than devs, tougher and faster than devs, also disgustingly effective melee attacks, can throw certain stratagems at youheavy: exosuit, mechs in any config you could think of, some with extra shields, others with dual missile launchers and suchsuper heavy: pelican gunship, shittons of armor, blasts you with missiles and gatlingsstructure: rebel bases of four sizes, individual structures would be called barracks, they would be themed by looking like salvaged super destroyer + pelican parts and other pilfered SEAF equipmentspecial structures: propaganda towers that need to be hellbombed or mini nuked, rebel eagle comms towers that disable your eagles but can be OPS'd or hellbombed, orbital scramblers that disable your orbitals but can be 500kg'dcall-in: traitor drop, some dissidents come in via pelicans, others via hellpodtheir voice acting would have a very aggressive and mocking tone, they'd dare you to show yourself if they hear you before they see youtheir theme would be a menacing and slow march like version of cup of liber-tea invoking a "we've had enough" vibe
>>537285227It would just be clankers again with heavies on wheels/tracks rather than stompy things
>>537285295tits too small
>>537284880>>537285216He is right the reason we don't have Justice is because her tits are indeed too small.
>>537285462bots 0.5boring.
>>537285719bots are the most exciting faction as it is on account of posing the most amount of defenses, tactical hurdles, and aim checksdissidents could be that but taken to an extreme

>>537286801anon any seasoned helldiver should know that the war is completely fake from a lore perspective.automatons have no interest in fighting us, they reached their war goal with ease well over a year ago, they rate us as a minor annoyance on their borders at this point.bugs are being spread around by humans exclusively, obviously the giant mosquitoes did not evolve bioships, that's retarded, they're spread by humans both intentionally and accidentally, call the ministry of truth I don't give a fuck.squids are a special case but I honestly don't care about some provinicial low-grade plebeian assholes getting zombiefied any more than I care about them getting killed by space snakes or the space flu.

>think about joining or hosting>thoughts immediately veer to solo where latency is no concern, frame drops happen so much less, the action is tighter as a result, and given that you're not just raping a bot map with cuck chair the time limit actually conflicts with your ambition to wipe the map cleanI mean it's a co-cop game but fuck it feels so much like itself when I go it alone. dumb swedes. fix your fucking game. give us the first stable build in forever. niggers.

haven't played since the illuminate invasion of super earth was wrapping up. is now the time to get back into it, or should I wait for more content to drop?
>>537290331yes thankfully modders are more capable than swedes and most mods will not do anything to hurt your performance, some achieve quite the opposite

>>537290485Normally I'd agree, but the current patch is unstable as fuck, I drop from games and hard freeze my pc all the time. Mods have been one thing I've removed, and while it's didn't fix it, it helped it happen less often.
Girl you got the Love Bug
So...remind me, why are Bulk Fabricators flashbanging half the map when they explode? And WHY is that still an okay thing?>be 100 meters away from what is basically a hulk or tank spawner, IF it even dumps them out>flashbangs you even if youre not looking at it
Who here /FLASHLIGHT ATTACHMENT on every weapon with crowd control?
>>537287338ThisBugs are spread because they make oilThe entire boom-bust cycle with them is intentional. Bugs infest planets, make oil, kill the bugs to get the oil, then give the bugs the planets back, to make more oil, that you send in dipshits to collect. Rinse repeat, you have renewable energy.
>>537291028I don't need a flashlight Democracy tells me where my enemies are at at all times
Lobby doko?
Cave diving is going to be fucking kino. And it opens the door for other similar scenarios, like assaulting a huge underground bot bunker complex, or boarding a squid overship and destroying it from within.
>>537291204for me it's fat slob period blood
>>537291028I WILL take the eruptor into the hole, and I WILL fire it at any enemy.You just should have been wearing explosive resistance armor. Heavy explosive resistance, ideally. It'll save you from shrapnel, you know.

>>537291273I hate swiggers but I'll give them credit, I never thought they'd figure it out.
>>537291575ThisShoot the eruptor down the hole.No kills, it's safe.13 kills, it's safe now.4 kills, shoot again, then it's safe.

>>537291028imagine using airburst and mines in there
I'm going to be so disappointed when the new rifle is going to have the same or less damage than the shock rifle
>>537291725>It's a "shitters calling in napalm orbital on nest complexes, now we fucking sit here for 10 seconds while nothing happens and maybe we get buttfucked by a patrol" kind of mission
I wonder how this is supposed to work for people who don't have Servants of Freedom. Yeah, Portable Hellbomb is the most obvious choice, but how much explosive ordnance will it take to destroy if nobody on your team has the warbond? Particularly since you need to bring your entire armory into the caves with you and wasting a backpack slot on a support weapon like Recoilless or AC would make you a liability.
>install the arrows mod>still check every container anyway because I want medals
>>537292324I will give Arrowhead credit. It has been funny as shit watching the devs grief the entire xbox community, by flooding the free strategems exclusively with things they will kill themselves with Honestly I'm disappointed the Arc Thrower hasn't made an appearance. Can't wait for the fucking 380s soon
>>537291028>>537291273I just hope there's actual verticality and the "caves" aren't just flat planes with a roof and a bunch of pits to fall in. So far, everything we've seen has just been exactly that; even the entrances are just roofed terrain and the big open cavern with the bridge didn't show any way to go down at all, just a big deathpit.>>537291840Don't be too hasty.I was excited at first as well, but after looking at the videos more and thinking about it, I suspect I'll just be disappointed. It's not going to be a cave network like DRG or EDF, it's just darker bug megacity alleys that you can't call stratgems into.
>>537288558We lost a man - 3/4, we're waiting for (YOU)
>>537290440Next big update drops next tuesday.It's your call.
>>537292532I meanIt's possible there's an objective specific portable hellbomb you can deploy for it?Granted, my immediate thought is just sitting there at the mouth of the cave fucking catapulting portables with turrets to clear objectives, but
>>537292708>>537288558Full once again!
>>537292651>Don't be too hasty.Don't misunderstand me, I mean only that I thought they wouldn't be able to figure it out on a technical level. I'm not commenting on whether it will actually be fun to play or not.
>>537292651I never expected DRG to be in Fortnite, so anything is possible.
>>537292532>staring at hive lung releasing 6 gorillion spores>fog all over the place>flashlight still workshow do I play this version of the game?
>>537292651>it's just darker bug megacity alleys that you can't call stratgems into.ThisI fully expect it to just be a city + a jammer, + fuck jetpacks specifically, and every single mass team killing weapon is just unusable for a cherry, in practice. And regularly screaming at the flamethrower to stop lighting up the direction we're going. I also fully expect these missions to be done by single crackheads sprinting a hellbomb in there while taking drugs in the first two minutes of the mission after the first week, and the novelty of epic cave expeditions wears off, assuming there's not a funny exploit to blow up the lung from above ground or some shit.
>>537292532>would make you a liability.Jesus fucking christ, its not that deep
>>537293052this is how the game functions on the highest settingsjust pay the -70 fps tax :)
>>537291204I'm ok with silly skins if they give us the option to turn them off. I don't want to see chicken men and Gundam suits.
>>537293264no it's not t. max settings
>>537292582>Honestly I'm disappointed the Arc Thrower hasn't made an appearance.Let me one-up you:Tesla Tower
which weapons should be priorities for levelling up?
>>537293496your least favorite ones so you never have to touch them again
>>537293189Imagine if they just made it a time limited mission like TCS and dark fluid after hyping it up lol
>>537293496The weapons with the most goodies are assault rifles and SMGs. Get at least one each of an AP2 and AP3 assault rifle maxed out, and you're more or less fine. Breakers can get choke and magazine attachments, but the Spray&Pray is still dogshit even at max upgrade. Almost everything else is just sights customization and maybe underbarrel, all of which is mostly negligible except in the case of the Eruptor.
>>537292554The arrow mod is nice even if you do that so you can be damn sure you'll never miss one.Like if I'm off on my own and I see a door, I might comment on it, but if no one bothers to come over I might just say fuck it.If I see it has SC's in it you know damn well I'm bothering the group till it's opend.
>>537293496Eruptor, Jar, Libpen, Adjudicator, Reprimand. Those are weapons with either retarded attachments that need to be taken off for more ergo, or benefit the most from mods.
>>537293496Shotguns and ARs with drum mags.

Might just be me, but I can imagine this thing being conducive to forming vehicle convoys. Have two guys in an FRV scouting ahead and clearing out chaff, a Patriot walking alongside as escort, and then park the FRV at a vantage point at the drilling point so the HMG mount has good sight ranges and the driver can go help operate the drill and autocannon on the refinery.

That's deflating as shit. Who wanted this subverted expectation? Is Joel's real name Rian Johnson? Xniggers even tried to defend Seyshel Beach because of the Reach memes with New Alexandria and he wouldn't even let them have that one win. What a total fucking faggot of a GM.
Why do some of the warbonds have so much less stuff than the others? The first few have 3 armor sets each and 4 weapons, then it goes down to 2 of each.

>>537295290Arrowhead had a lot of unfinished content when the game launched and they packaged them into the earlier warbonds. When they started having to develop new content from scratch they slowed the pace of warbond releases and started putting less in them.
>>537295290short answer - jewslong answer - after polar patriots released, and the devs got hit with the "what kind of bullshit are you releasing when the gear you're selling to us isnt even good", we got hit by them implying they're gonna do less warbond releases as much and try to focus more on "quality control"

>>537296221Stupidly broken. But you want to pair it with the hover pack and abuse rooftops and cliffs with it. If you want to maximize your kills that match even more then also pick MG and a flamer turret and then defend them when they get overwhelmed with the de-escalator since that support weapon doesn't damage them at all. Arc resistance armour recommended as well, might as well opt for medium armour as well since you're not really running around a shit ton as you are mostly abusing high ground spots to lob the grenades down from. Anything that can potentially reach you you'd want to be able to tank +1 more hit with that extra armour of medium.

Most things benefit from ripping bullshit off, pretty much nothing actually wants the scope attached to it, mist things that can get a foregrip have something they want, but honestly most of these are details.The Eruptor has a critical ergonomic flaw that gets fixed, the Adjudicator fixes its recoil, the Spray&Pray gets utterly cucked by the vanilla Breaker, and the rest is run by preference, if you want, I guess. Honestly pretty fucking underwhelming for most weapons. That more weapons can't get a masterkey shotgun, flamethrower, or grenade launcher is honestly really fucking retarded.

So it looks like the general approach AH is going to take going forward is giving the sub-factions three unique units (give or take). The digging sub-faction is going to have Warriors, Bile Spewers, and Chargers, and possibly the Hive Lord (depending on how they're going to implement that). And in this case, since we're going to be on Gloom worlds, we might see it in conjunction with Spore Scavengers, Spore Warriors and Spore Hunters. Shit's gonna be wild.

>>537300142>he forgot the dragon roachRetard
>>537299769Maybe it's just me playing with randos then, there were a few games I dropped in where the bugs were overrunning the defenses.
They also show here that grenades will be able to damage and kill burrowing enemies, which seems like it'll be a novel way to bring the Autocannon and Grenade Launcher up in use frequency. Almost certainly not the charger, but if Bile Spewers are going to be hit-and-run then it'll be a way to counter them without relying on stun effects to pin them to the surface.

whats a good ballistic shield loadout?for bots i guess, is there even any reason to bring it to bugs or squids?
The last warbond i bought was Viper Commandos last year, what are the good warbonds to go for now?
>>537300386Just because you can avoid filling out a C-01 that way doesn't mean you should.
>>537300425Looks like it's armored. Alone it might be a joke but that thing looks like it's gonna be a rape ragdoll machine. Also I like how it looks like it actually look well designed and has good telegraphs.
>>537300425There better be 15 of them at once that's for sure>>537300142Man if there ISN'T an enemy that can drag you down into the caves and force you to fight for your life to rejoin your squad then the update is trashMake is to your squad can grab you and pull you out if they are close when you get latched on to and listen to the solofags seethe
>>537300479Remember that the shield blocks everything. Melee strikes, acid beams, etc.On squids it's great because the shield will protect your ass as you're running away from the horde of elevated overseers shooting at you. But at that point you might as well bring the bubble.
>>537300272How the fuck is that possible. Are those players not running sentries? If everyone brings MG sentry in their build alone that will pretty much spawn kill all bugs before they can get a breach call off. And it only gets worse for them if people bring even more sentries or aoe. Made even worse on bug bricks because their spawn points are not random. You can and will easily learn where they spawn, and you can place turrets just outside of that spawn (because for some retarded fucking reason Narrowhead allows players to deploy sentries outside of the base where they have near perfect sightlines on all spawns, and they can't do shit about it without a charger or BT, which are rare to spawn.
>>537300479Shield can block melee attacks.Also >Knight/Pummeler/XbowEverything else is up to taste.
>>537300479Just don't. The hand shields aren't very good, but against bots you're better off with the Directional Shield since bots are purely projectile-based enemies. The Ballistic Shield is for if you expect to fight at melee range.>>537300495Urban Legends and Servants of Freedom, after that it's your choice.
>>537300495Control group is i think one of the best, best backpack in the gameMasters of ceremony for one of the best armor passives in the game and the best light pen weapon in the game
with warstriders now in the picture and how they have it pretty easy pressuring individual divers, bugs and predators are now the easiest factions to soloit feels like the rightful outcome to be honest
>>537297032>Ah yes perry the platypus, you have finally uncovered my stagger-inator
>>537300649You're correct. Care to co-sign a C-01 with me, Anon?
>>537300142>Shit's gonna be wild.Yea, wildly unfinished and buggy and frustrating to fight
>>537300678>>537300657please please please let my prayers for increased bug count be answered, please I want 100 bugs present at all times, give me my adrenaline
>>537300714I just felt like there were more BTs spawning than usual, I didn't count them. Must have been wishful thinking.
>>537300479None, the shield is still awful. As much as I love the idea, I only bring when I fuck around in low diffs, along with the flag. I wish we had a good laser SMG like a mini-sickle to solve the ammo problems the other SMGs have, without having to go to the complete other side of the spectrum with the Talon.I'd say bots is actually the worst front for it. You can STILL fucking drop it, so you're gonna have to pick it up again every time you get ragdolled.>>537300495Control Group for the warp pack. You can solo warp into bunkers with it, so you'll increase your SC gain, while also having a very good mobility option.
>>537300479It's way better on bugs than the other factions. I'd probably recommend explosive armor with it. Crisper and fire nades are good, crossbow is good as well. I usually take flamethrower with it and just tank hits while the fire dot kills them. Melee sounds fun on paper but you need to reposition a bunch with it to keep up with your allies, and melee wastes too much stamina. On bots id take talon and or knight. Don't use it all the time just when you wanna block damage from Gatling devs and click their faces. I don't remember if it still blocks Gatling doggy or if they nerfed that. I usually take AMR or anything long ranged and peak physique. I took stun spear and had a pretty fun time too.
>>537300945Konata Izumi referenced.
>>537301163A finger on the monkey's paw curls, your wish is granted, the bug tunnels are now full of hundreds of scavengers.
It's pretty clear they intend for this thing to be a Leviathan-tier superheavy, from the context. We've seen their corpses here and there on maps before, and I assume they're the ones digging the tunnels on the Gloom worlds. But I wonder how we'll be expected to actually fight them, given that they'll probably be super mobile and be able to just easily move out of the firing arcs of an AT Emplacement.
>End D10 predator mission with 900+ kills to the next player with some 200 kills.If you let AI and the de-escalator's absurdly large, no damage to range falloff + body piercing AoE do all the killing for you, then you too can kill more than the rest of the team combined with ease every time!

>>537301983
>>537300479>is there even any reason to bring it to bugs or squids?There's honestly barely any reason to take it period, both shields are kind of meme picks to take for fun rather than actual effectiveness and you have a chance to drop it if you get ragdolled. They're fun to take along with melee weapons but otherwise the supply pack will probably keep you alive longer.They are able to block almost anything that attacks you from the front though so I hope the upcoming bug caves at least give them slightly more of a niche use.
I'm super happy that we're getting more aerial threats, but a flying dragon isn't something I would expect from bugs. Yeah it's cool, but I would imagine that we'd get something like flying Warriors or Hunters that take more firepower to bring down than Shriekers and spawn in moderately high numbers (not Shrieker horde amounts, but more like 6-8 of them at a time in the same cluster).The Dragonroach feels kind of out of place compared to the usual bug roster, but I'm not complaining. I imagine that Flak Airburst RL could be good against it, and as everyone's said Spear is going to make a comeback (though I'm not as convinced, it doesn't seem like it'd be fast enough to require it).

I NEED TO LIBER-PEE SO BAD BUT THE BITCH OF A SHIPMASTER WONT STOP FINGERBANGING HERSELF OVER THE DSS IN THE BATHROOM
>>537302234You've always needed AT on bugs. Hell, the ineffectiveness of AT against Charger Behemoths was what prompted the entire 60-day patch in the first place.The only faction that doesn't actually need AT is squids, and that's because they're still only about 60% of a faction due to lack of unique mission types and general lack of enemy diversity. You only ever need AT if there's a Leviathan modifier, because Harvesters and Fleshmobs can be killed with just AP3 weaponry.
>>537302052Is it too much to want some bugs with actual bug wings? I get square-cubed law and whatnot but some kind of pouncer or spitter sized bug with dragonfly wings that zips and zoops around hovering menacingly would be fun and on theme.

Redditors coping. If you die more than 3 times you need to lower the difficulty.
>>537303042yes well there's still the possibility that they'll not allow the dragon to be a genuine heavy with a sizable hp pool and lots of durable health. maybe it'll die to as little as an EAT body shot. I honestly expect that because gunships were the original rallying point for the whiners and Arrowhead probably doesn't want a repeat of that.

>>537296221I was drunk off my ass using just the de-escalator on bugs and got top kills. When you're surrounded and need to reload drop arc/gas grenade at your feet and back off. Warp pack helps it too to disjoint attacks. Also helps if you're wearing arc armor and wanna just click your feet.Don't bring anything that uses ammo outside maybe the ultimatum. It'll help soften or kill heavies you wanna save de-escalator shots from shooting

>>537305496On defend evacuation rockets missions
>>537306357Give it one more rocket, that's it. Getting 3 rockets from resupply is ass cancer. Its honestly not that bad in the current meta because people are carrying AT left and right and rocket chads are always rewarded. That and with how much obfuscation is on the map spear can just do whatever it wants and slam targets. Just don't use it on factory striders.
>>537305496Applies to both emplacements to an extent.1. Be calling them down, pretty much whenever they're off cooldown, always. You never know when one of them will suddenly be extremely significant later. Only hold off if there's a use case you can think of in the next minute or so. Do NOT let these rot in your pocket. 2. Look for sight lines and elevation to put them on. If you realize you can see an entire third of the map from here, put one down. Again, do it even if you can't see an immediate reason to, you never know when one will suddenly become relevant.3. If someone puts down supplies, put one down nearby. If you approach an objective, put one down nearby. If you're coming up on a camp, put one nearby.4. Pair them with a turret. Ideally one the rest of your team doesn't have, double ideally the MG or flame turret. Whenever you put down an emplacement, put down a turret behind you, and listen for that motherfucker. That is your warning
I want the Illuminate to have a commander unit that is so oppressively powerful that just looking at it for too long from far away kills you by causing madness and frying your brain, making your head explode.Small, flies, instant oneshot death laser, shield, heat seeking bullet hell plasma missiles, somewhat rare. Has the ability to pin a single helldiver, slowly make them levitate and then pink dust them if nobody causes a flinch.Just a mini boss fight that is really hard to solo to remind you that this is a cooperative game.

when will arrowhead fix their shit ass game?
You can solo D20 hivemind without the rocket dog and arc sentry right, anon...?
>>537306357As it is right now? For starters, overhaul enemy heavies so that they all have a top-down hitbox that's significantly weaker than their frontal and side hitboxes, then allow us to program the Spear for direct attack or an actual top-down arc that can hit enemies from above. Maybe also give it a double kinetic penetrator that allows it to break armor pieces and simultaneously damage the internals with a single projectile, though that might be a bit overkill.The whole issue with the Spear is that post-60 day patch it feels like it's designed to be the dumb AT option for players who can't aim (trades off auto-aim and high damage for low ammo). But it shouldn't be this way, I used to like the Spear when it was a niche pick, the problem now is that it's pointless to use it over an AT weapon that allows you to manually snipe weak spots.

So let me get this straight. The more players there are, the more we lose the galactic war and it's harder to defend and liberate planets? Why the fuck was the xbox launch hyped up like it was when it leads to this this retarded outcome.

>>537311768A handful of the reds are still pretty good at chaff clear if you're not lugging around a grenade launcher or ABRLSometimes you just need a bunch of things dead asap
>>537311768Reds, just like greens, are a weird force multiplier only useful in certain situations, and the swede is trying to make them less useful for some reason.This is my own hot take, but a helldiver's main strength comes from his loadout and whatever support weapon he's using, because that 'force multiplier' stems from his own understanding of the weapon and his own skill alone, no RNG from whether a sentry will actually aim at the thing about to rape you or not, or the red actually doing its job.That does not mean that having reds isnt a bad idea. They exist to either help your loadout fill out some weaknesses (see - specialise in chaff-clear, softening up bases, huge damage in one concentrated spot) or vice versa, to strengthen it.Some reds, however, are more picked than others for obvious reasons, mainly their versatile usage or how they're always reliable. OPS, Eagle Strafing Run or Eagle Airstrike come to mind. Eagle 500kg vs OPS is a hot debate, and it is up to the Helldiver himself to figure that one out. Others like orbital barrages akin to 120 / 380 / Walking are closer to RNG or some lovecraftian knowledge of the spread pattern.tl;drred stratagems are On Cooldown "get out of jail" card while blues require you to actually put some skill into making the most out of it.

>>537313548
>>537313718Its not bait. Bugchasers genuinely think their faction is hard.
>>537312556I agree with that, but chaff clear has become so common in loadouts. It's almost hard to not pick chaff clear.>>537312582I'd say reds are mostly to pad out what your kit is lacking. I just dislike the fact that blues are effectively a part of your kit to such an extent that they might as well just isolate a single slot to blues only. I'd agree they're sort of a force multiplier, but it's a small number like a 10% boost. In some cases they can compliment your build, like EAS can soften up targets before you finish them off with your support weapon. But this interaction is being hamstrung so much by all the new maps and mission types, that the game just devolves into greens and rockets.

>>537313903>newer maps are going anti-reds by obstructing the super destroyer's angle of attack or having eagle fumble her attacksIt's why mega-cities seem to be more and more cancerous to fight in. There's a few spots where you can use eagle stratagems, sure, but the super destroyer is just cucked in that regard, might as well bring sentries to deal with your problems.I'm also not fond of the whole "cave map" idea, but that's personal bias against a game having a form of "hey, you can make your loadout specialise in this thing! and now we're taking it away, because fuck you!" system. I'm salty about Division 2 having the Anti-Skill jammers in the Tower.We'll see how they're going to implement that cave mission. It aint DRG, for sure. It got darkness, it got laughable amounts of danger, and it aint got dwarves.>>537313134Oh, the OPS is a big grenade on cooldown, and it also has tactical purposes. Mainly for getting rid of certain side-objectives on the bot front, clearing out some outposts, or going "fuck that heavy in particular", no doubt. Combined with its relatively low cooldown, it goes into the "Ol' Reliable" toolkit.That being said, what is it with people spamming things with sustainable DPS onto an enemy drop? Having Eagle Napalm, Orbital Gatling, 2 sentries and an Orbital Laser active seems like a waste of your stratagems, but that might be my own idea of "using your shit efficiently."

The main purpose is that it tells you when you're being snuck up on, so your first warning that shit has spawned behind you isn't seeing the inside of the Devastator's shield. You could also do mines, but mines are generally worse for pretty much anything else, and unless you're shoving THOSE up your ass, will have blind spots that won'tget covered, where even yiur turret blowing its nuts into a wall is telling you stuff is behind you. Honestly if you hear it start shooting at all, you need to be out of your chair seeing what the fuck is going on anyways.

I like the idea of underground areas conceptually. Means you can't just nuke shit from afar, and building for CQC is important. It's kinda like meganests and just double down on that. Which is great, that's what I've been hoping for for a while. Maybe they'll do this for bots too so fabs aren't just something you can nuke from a mile away.

>>537316135you're in the general that thinks bugs being able to close distances is cancer, go look for fun somewhere else.

>>537316372The point is the moment the game starts getting even slightly challenging AH dumbs it down. I don't think infinitely spawning, infinite rocket Gunships and bunker turret Hulks were each in the game for longer than a month.

>>537316632Hey man you can do whatever you want, but if you're hard countering a faction with an OP P2W loadout don't bitch about the faction being mindless.
>>537316632
>>537316657Honestly procgen games are a weird case where you'd think there would be a lot of effort put into simply making more tiles and switching up variety even more as time goes along, rather than straight up just adding entirely new content separate of the old stuff, but it always seems they go the full length of new stuff. Same thing happened to a game like PSO2. Only indie games, which usually tend to be early access titles at that so they're not even finished in the first place, iterate and improve upon the procgen variety nowadays.

>>537316412the walls honestly don't help. I can just check the minimap for the solid red blips, and huck strafing runs at them. Only thing that stops me is the mini turrets and the fat wall blocking the fab on the other side of the compound.

>>537319348Actually, yeah.I've been fucking with heavy more lately, heavy is fucking based against predator. You just survive shit, then kill it. You can pretty reliably survive getting jumped on, and have so much health you can stim through pretty much any number of guys in melee. I've gotten best results out of anti explosive and anti fire, to use either the eruptor or impact fire grenades to kill those swarms in melee.I'm getting fukkin hilarious results, like 1 death, 38 stims, 400 kills. Kinda supply hungry though.

>>537320247>This entire exchange is because you have some chip on your shoulder.There you go with that projection again.
>>537319704The "heavy" medium is pretty good, for sure, but I've been finding heavy gets best results when you layer another resistance on top of it, and exploit it. Extra stims are good, too, because you fukkin eat dozens, and the extra heal per stim can be leveraged really nicely.The extra armor heavy is, sadly, kinda not that good, you have WAY better raw survivability from extra stims, or leaning into a resistance than what the extra armor itself gives you. Makes you damn near immune to headshots though.

>>537319850Im guessing supply pack for stims? How do you deal with hunter swarms gangbanging you? Just blow yourself up and live?
>>537320362Again, I'm only saying Heavy armor is good if you want certain passives. The extra stims is nice, and its a damn shame that there's only one medic armor that is just a Devastator reskin with one helmet that I like. Otherwise, the resistances dont seem to matter much as even the Medium Gas Armor coupled with the Vit booster makes you have practically 0% DoT from gas nades or orbital gas. Its a different story for fire.>>537320365You either ride hard and die fast in light armor, or get used to moving slow and staying low in heavy armor.
I know exactly what HD2 needs
>>537319850>Making shit up in order to get unsuspecting anons to rage when they try to replicate this stratHonestly impressive trolling game ngl.
>>537320365Honestly, that's wasted on heavy armor, besides bricks, I think. Bricks it's nice.It's kinda nice on bots, but that's more 'cuz I think light on bots is super ass.The extra ammo is wasted, you eat supplies so quick you don't have time to run out. The reload speed is nice, but if that's what you're taking it for, I HIGHLY reccomend just take explosive resist, amd the grenade pistol to just shoot at point blank instead, or take a grenade you resist.

>>537320803Nah, I'm being legit.It feels bad at first, you feel yourself getting hit when you wouldn't have, but then you start noticing how consistently you survive shit that absolutely would have killed you otherwise, and start changing the way you look at your health, as a resource. It's actually becoming my favorite armor class on both bots and bugs. Definitely needs a jump or warp pack for bugs, though, that's a requirement. Not Illuminate, though, besides bricks.

>>537321374So you think me saying "bugs are easy" is me implying bots are hard? You keep proving me right about that insecurity thing.
>>537321270>bar the plasma punisherMan dude it's wild how people have such varrying opinions on what's fun or not in this game. Personally I think that gun is dog shit, but I probably haven't given it enough of a chance.
>>537321658When you get so defensive about bots getting shit on? Yes. Absolutely.
>>537320563Pretty much always jump or warp pack. I've tried supply pack, it's usable, especially with stim armor, but being able to jump or warp is really important against bugs in heavy. Supply pack is fantastic on heavy versus bots. In heavy anti explosive, with a supply pack, you just do not die to like, anything. Ever. Usually for swarms, yeah, you just blow yourself up, or stim through it with whatever your plan is. Some primaries or the lmg can just rip through on stims, but planning on exploding is usually the best option, with a warp/teleport to buy you a reload or weapon swap. Gas is a bit unreliable here, since, y'know, they're already in melee with you, but I like it with anti explosive and the eruptor/grenade pistol.
>>537321616What I like to do is give people supplies on demand whenever they need it, then call down supplies and just slorp up all the supplies so we don't have to all get back together for it. Wish giving others supplies from resupply gave them full support ammo though.
>pick the +HP booster>dive in>double check>nobody picked Hellpod Space Optimizationpost yfw
DO w*men play this game?Because today I helped some cadets in a defense mission and one of them had a really sweet voice. But knowing am*ricans "she" was probably a troon or something idk
>>537319348It's really not that bad, just bring CC. Stimming will get you through any gang bang. It's a lot worse on squids though because fleshmobs can't be CCed reliably outside gas.
>>537321718>When you get so defensive about bots getting shit on?You only brought up bots later on in this exchange when i never once mentioned them. There you go with that insecurity thing. You thought this entire exchange was about "bugs vs bots." Keep going, i want to get a deeper diver into the psyche of a bugchaser

>>537321837Supply pack should be split between a medicpack and a munitions pack. Medicpack gives full stims, and munitions pack gives full ammo and grenades.

>>537321338NahThat's what it feels like at first, for sure, that's what I mean by it feeling bad at first. At first you just feel yourself taking more damage. But, then, you get a bit used to it, and start noticing shit you definitely "should" have died from, leaving you at half, or over if you're coming from light. You start realizing you can just ignore shit for a minute, trading a bit of damage now for more important stuff dead, and not a problem later. You definitely still take some damage from thing you otherwise wouldn't, but, then you STILL have enough health left to take damage that should have killed you, and then you start noticing those level end stats go from like 4-5 deaths, 6 stims taken, to 1 death, 30 stims. Have you taken more damage overall? Absolutely.But you aren't DYING anymore.

>>537321992Let's talk about how botrannies have never won a single MO and have often enough caused them to fail. And then at any point in time use every excuse they can to project their failures onto everyone else. Women mentality. Not even once.

These warbonds aren't going to complete themselves. I require lobbies with which to farm medals.

>>537325642The trailer describes three digging enemies. Warriors, Bile Spewers, and Chargers. I thought at first that these were imrovements to regular Terminids, but It seems they are a new strain of them? I can't tell for certain if they look different in the trailer than they look normally. I think they look rounder, with a softer shell? The Warrior looks like it has crab claws.I hope the Dragonroach is a regular enemy though.
