BURROWERS, OR DIGGERS AS I LIKE TO CALL THEM editionPrevious: >>537716309>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 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 is based and 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.

>>537737821Hey I'm doing my best okay
>>537737708The problem with these chucklefucks is that they dont get staggered. So the moment it pops up you gotta kill it pronto before it fucks you up.By the way, wheres its weakspot? I want to keep using my wife the M90 but I fear I might have to switch to my side ho, the dominator.

Re: Arc Thrower in cavesAs possibly the original, longest, and loudest proponent of it, it works pretty good in the caves. Yes, there is bugg targetting sometimes but that has always been the case and its far better than it was in the old days. In regards to it hitting corpses, sometimes this is actually a good thing (though hardly always). This can allow it to get longer range or turn corners that it otherwise wouldn't be able to do as sometimes the corpses still count as "alive" and allowing arcing. I'd generally suggest it as a decent weapon that has some high use niche cases.I would advise getting good at dodging as sometimes you are going to have to hold fire and buy time as one of your "allies" runs back and forth and all over your firing lines; its an auto targetting one-shot usually and they often come back quite pissy despite them being the cause of it.Major downside is that it can do jackshit against all the new burrowing shit. I've taken to carrying the purifier and that actually works pretty good. However, you are semi-suspectible to stalkers as while both of your weapons are effective against them they have charge up times, so if you get jumped its rough and if you seem them coming its a slaughter.
>>537737905Full
lower the difficulty?more like lower your pants, because you're looking sweeter than a sugar plum
>>537738156>The problem with these chucklefucks is that they dont get staggeredArc Thrower + Purifier >>537738220
>>537738084No. But it will set them on fire, even though theyre underground. And if they get close, even though they're underground, theyll set you on fire. Isnt that cool and realistic?
This is the most fun the game has been.
>>537738156It's like a hive guard, they have a armored front. Explosive weapons like plasma do well in rooting them out from underground.
>>537738283Lower the diff is a retarded take. Swiggered game will not become a better one on diff 6
>>537737821listen im trying ok?? Please dont be rude
Justice delayed is justice denied.
>>537738220Just use the fucking Blitzer, anon
>>537738156shoot it anywhere that isn't its head
>>537738387Ok retard
>>537738526The blitzer is incredibly inferior to the arc thrower, they are very different tools.
Honestly the fact the APC looked like it handles like shot makes me think its real
>AH introduces new enemy>It's a broken, unfun mess>Game itself also breaks a little more>Weeks go by>One or two hotfixes for game issues drop, typically breaking more than they fix>Another week goes by>Enemy finally adjusted after "Enough data is collected" (maybe)>New iteration of enemy is a complete toss up if it's actually fixed or not, same goes for if it's fun>Weeks go by>AH introduces a new enemy>It's a broken, unfun messDoes AH only ever learn their lessons if the game/company itself is at stake? Because I'm starting to think even that's not enough to get through to them with them slowly regressing to their pre 60 day patch nonsense.
>>537738220I've always loved the arc thrower but tend to run a "Panic" weapon as my main, like the breaker spray and pray when shit gets in my face. I'm going to try out the flame thrower primary with it I think.
>>537738220If the warp pack wasn't so much fun, then I'd be bringing the zapdog.
>caves advertised as being so dark, you need a flashlight to go in, except they don't and you can perfectly see in them>hive lord being nigh impossible to kill for shit worthless rewards, people are even straight up lying about killing it and is just a waste of time>Pelican still clipping into the floor, sometimes taking up to 5 minutes to get unstuck while it glitches like a gmod ragdoll>get a free portable hellbomb to blow up the hive lung, except it doesn't kill it because it can tank multiple of them>bile titan hole in caves so you have to bring a mandatory ultimatum>crash so much, you're going to make activision believe you want a new crash game>samples and POI drops straight up spawning in walls or under the floor
>>537738463>X Y and Z are annoying and awful to fight>lowering the difficulty ensures X, Y and Z no longer appear in the missionstherefor lowering the difficulty removes the source of your frustration and makes it a better experience and thus game
>>537738637>bile titan hole in caves so you have to bring a mandatory ultimatumJust bait the bugs into blowing up their own fucking hole.
>>537738650Remind me in which difficulty fleshmobs begin to spawn again?
>>537738637And it did look dark in gameplay previews. Must be some kind of lighting issue in one part of their swedish meatball version control.
>>537738802>the two single fleshmbos that only spawn around the objective on squid D1 is enough to make anon throw a tantrumgrim, maybe you should just go play a different game entirely
>>537738770Thanks for bringing that out, diverting all currently available manpower to fix this on the next patch, you're welcome. Unrealistic that a bug stepping on a hole should be able to destroy it.
>>537738650But will this fix god awful weapon? Will this fix fps drops in every part of the game? Will the game stop crashing? Will this be fun without any new shit? Will this fix broken enemies? Will this fix useless weapon? Will this lets change perks on my armor? Will this be realistic enough in devs opinion? Oh wait last one actually does because they play only on baby diff :)
>>537738637There are plenty of dark sections though?
>>537738596I like having something that has push/stagger as my primary. I used to run the OG slugger and up until recently the Dominator. This helps if somethings gets right in your grill which can cause the arc thrower to no properrly hit (or even arc and insae angles;I've seen it go behind me into the party before). Additionally, they have good pen so you can focus fire weakpoints if you need to watch your arcing. My concern with both of the ones you suggest is that they are largely an overlap with the arc thrower: good for clearing chaff and hard to use an melee ranges. For example, what is your plan if you get jumped by some unexpected stalkers or hunters? You do you, though. Let us know how it goes.>>537738634I've yet to use it since returning but I have to imagine its an ally killing machine that is difficult to reign in.Warp Pack is fun but its not usually my playstyle and is probably the "meta" pick

>>537739561I want you niggers to actually answer me for once - how the fuck do you imagine that fucking thing not requiring a backpack to reload? That shit requires carrying entire fucking tube assembly that's bigger than any ammo for any weapon we have currently. Just, how?
>>537738910Retard kun...

>>537739803it doesn't drop with one. either scavenge ammo for it or bring the supply pack. it's a reloadable two-shot RR/spear bastardization
>>537739803Because haloman just pulled the ammo out of hammerspace instead of wearing a backpack.

You have been collecting your samples, right helldiver?
>>537740063Yes.
>>537739210easier to groom
the SPNKR should clearly have intermediate performance between the Commando and the EAT/RR while requiring a backpack to reload, but also have reload while moving because of its flip-open bracket system
>rupture warriors are far easier to dodge if you're not the hostI was actually thinking it was my fault and maaaybe anons were actually and I should just lower the difficulty. It was the swedes all along. Fucking hate them
>>537740114Is there even a backpack weapon that you don't need to crouch to reload? That'd be cool.
>>537740227>be host>die to rupture warrior>spectate other guy one team>watch rupture warrior after rupture warrior pop up and slash at him the exact way they killed me>the claws physically make contact>he takes 0 damage every timehowwhy
>>537740268The Stalwart, at the cost of being a lightpen chaff clearer only.
>>537740063Obviously yes. Thats how literally every other none backpack weapon works. Like the drum mags of the HMG
>>537740380Stalwart doesn't need a backpack silly.
>>537740114I like that idea
>>537740424yeah i only realized that after typing it, i dunno why my reading tunnel visioned so bad
>>537740360Swedes
>>537740360Seems like there's a lot of shit that only works for the hostDo alpha commanders still break if they aren't in physical proximity of the host?
>>537740516Don't worry anon, it was just a silly little mistake, it happens.

>>537738637>>caves advertised as being so dark, you need a flashlight to go in, except they don't and you can perfectly see in themThank.Fuck. The flashlights in this game suck.
Why are there so many problems related to the host. Its always the host. Host this, host that. Maybie one day they can host a functioning game.
Customizable stratagem weapons WHEN?Armor paint WHEN?New ships WHEN?APC WHEN?Tanks WHEN?Motorbikes WHEN?Full illuminate roster WHEN?Total swigger death WHEN?
>>537738582>handles like a 5kg bikeit's real and unfinished, retard
>>537739369Honestly just 10 more damage across the board and the weapons would be far more competitive than they are now. Or at least giving the assault rifle its 60 round mag.Though 20 more damage and shifting the shotgun to medium pen, even if they lower the damage a little (a LITTLE), would be just Perfect. Especially considering they can't be upgraded.But no, AH are timid little bitches, slowly reverting back to their "Game more fun when less fun!" mentality.>>537739561I'd give it the same damage/pen as the commando just with no laser guidance and much bigger splash radius, so it'd be more like the one in Halo. Along with not being disposable or having a backpack, I feel that'd be a fair side-grade.>>537739803Where do you keep the 4 pringles cans for the Epoch? The 2 watermelon sized drums for the hmg? The 2 car batteries for the laser cannon? The TWENTY energy drink cans for the railgun?Keeping two pairs of semi-long tubes up your ass instead any of that is not that much more of a stretch.
I've figured out the plasma punisher is the best weapon for the digging fucks.
>do all objectives>914xp>+300%>2300xpHow does the school system work in sweden? Do they do maths differently compared to the rest of the world or something?
I just wanna shoot my primary more. The halo battle rifle is fucking cool, but it doesn't do enough damage to be my actual primary.
>>537740227*right, actually ffs fucking swiggers>>537740360Swiggers coding skills. >>537740529Yep
>>537739561>no backpack on a rocket launcherAre you retarded?
>>537739736I simply dive backwards while firing my ultimatum.
>>537740730Oh its real, we agree on that. But honestly, I dont think its unfinished. Because making 13 ton vehicle handle like absolute shit does sound like something they'd do
What is the best armor set to bring for cave bugs?
>>537740790>digs out right onto you>shoot with plasma>damage yourselfinb4 you say to dive, bug hitbox prevent you from diving for half of the time
>go to open area in cave>throw support weapon>lands 50m away on top of a rock>shoot it, still can't reach my weapon>ok well>throw sentry in the same spot thinking it'll also land on top of the rock>lands on mewhy is it like this
>>537740790Friend said it's so good it's gonna get nerfed, and after seeing it I feel it
>burrowing cunts in all sizes, you now need medium penetration for bug chaff>dragons doing strafing runs>tanker being buggy, subject to physics glitchesmy group hasn't finished a truck mission yet
>>537741020You shoot them before they're in your face. That's a skill issue.
>>537740951i don't think they'd do that and i'm not sure why you would eithermake no mistake they're fucking retarded beyond belief but that is genuinely unthinkable except for if it's due to a bug stemming from no QA
>>537740976Explosive resistance. Because HOLY FUCK PEOPLE CANT STOP SHOOTING NEAR ME
make it heavy pen
>>537740976Extra stims is pretty solid.Planning around your allies to bring shit resistant to what they're throwing down is probably the best, but requires coordination, so you're not running anti arc in a party full of fire and explosions. Anti fire, less for the cave, more for the dragons. Those are deaths, too, and someone needs to crack eggs.
>>537740976Medium padded is the only armor worth bringing. Everything else is just a gimmick.
>>537740740Honestly out of all of these only the HMG drums are really weird, Railgun cans could easily be stored in a grenadier belt and both Epoch and Laser Cannon batteries aren't so big they couldn't be on a chest rig.>why aren't theySw*des can't code for shit.>why not gaylo rocket launcherThat shit is like 2/3 of a height of an already like 7 foot tall super soldier. I don't care how much gay sex you have, that shit ain't hiding up your ass.

Alright what the fuck do you do about the huge acid lake areas?Just did a geo survey and the entirety of the main mission was in those areas, knee deep water that makes you walk slow as fuck and you can't dive + alpha warriors that are way faster + the burrowers + a fucking hive lord that was honestly pretty cancerous
>>537741625I would join but I shit just crash the moment I leave the loading screen.
>>537741732become a mechwarrior
>>537741137Couple reasons I think this>1. I don't trust Arrowhead Self explanatory.>2. Same thing happened to the FRVI distinctly remember seeing a different, older, version of the FRV leaked from a chinese dataminer. This version was much heavier, and seemed to handle much better than the one we got.On that note, when the APC was first leaked: it looked like it handled well, and seemed very heavy. Now, it has been leaked again, a much more polished looking version...and its lighter, and handles worse. Thats why I think this is the finished version>its unthinkableNever underestimate the Swedish
>>537741721Any explosive weapon works. Grenade launcher and Eruptor, but the Eruptor is too slow imo.
>>537741214give it heavy pen but give it 5 durable to fuck over this dope

You think you could strap all but 4 of those to yourself in any practical way?And the railgun... boxes? Are actually bigger, and well, BOXES, making them even more awkward.You ain't fitting Twenty of them on your person, especially not with the railgun itself, a rifle, 8 rifle mags, A way too big pistol with 5+ mags and 3 thermites on top of it. Not unless you're pouched up more than a 90's superhero.The game isn't realistic, no matter how much AH tries to gas light us as it is.

You're not helping your case friend.And further to the original point, we may not be John Halo, but neither are the odst or the unsc marines, yet they carry all their gear, including rocket reloads, without dedicated backpacks for them too. Hell, they often don't have any backpack at all!They're videogames friend, fun is (Should be) the priority, not realism. That kind of thinking led almost killing the game and the 60 day patch.

>>537743679Oh, yeah, they stated somewhere that they aren't happy with the way you get sc now.Expect earn rates to plummet, like getting 30 for your daily, and then that's fucking it, or some shit
Is it just me or is the Epoch still just massively underwhelming even after the spread fix? It either needs a lot more reward for the risk or no risk for the current reward. Shit we have TWO smaller versions that work just fine but it explodes when made just a little bigger? And STILL explodes after months of field testing the prototypes?The fuck is Super Earth R&D doing?Honestly they could have just made it the Helldivers equivalent tot he fuel rod cannon and been done with it... or just actually made it the fuel rod cannon with the crossover.

>>537737708god damn this update REALLY fucking makes it apparent how retarded this games balance is when it comes to armor penthe "just aim lol" cope is blown out the window now that the diggers are covered head to toe in armor and go under ignoring everything but explosivesmeta suddenly went from "most guns are viable" to "dont take anything but an eruptor or crossbow"do you guys think this will make the retarded devs give more guns heavy and medium pen options or are they just going to nerf the armor on these bugs instead of finally giving players the ability to just use whatever gun they want?
Is the big worm D10 only or something Why is there so many low level shitters in pubs? It's way more than usual

REMOVE THE ASS LIGHT
>>537744380same with armor, needing some sort of resist armor for the bullshit spewers or a tanky armor for the diggers means you literally can not take anything else or youre a liabilityI like that this update addressed the overuse of orbitals and eagles but it just exasperated the low value of weapon and armor options in this game into a vary narrow "these few things are good the rest of the arsenal is dogshit">>537744465thats the thing most things dont have med pen, most complained about thing in the halo warbond was that leaving only the shotgun and AR as viable options and this update made every single weapon in that shit fucking worthless
>>537744380I expect them to nerf the eruptor, crossbow, purifier, and scorcher, since all of them will rise to unacceptable usage percents.
>>537744392>join randoms>no lives left>no objectives completed
>>537744295false
>>537744380It's great.I think they just want more build variety and niche uses . Ap2 was the shit on bots for a while, and it's still very powerful, so AP3 weapons getting time to shine is nice. I'm very happy getting to whip out stuff like the slugger or jar.

Hey bufftoddler.Play a different game.
>>537744559>narrow "these few things are good the rest of the arsenal is dogshit"This has been a problem for fucking ever though.They just refuse to do anything to give weapons what they need to work, because "lmao your shit sucks" has moved from a meme to design ethos. I WANT light pen weapons to be viable, I WANT more than a handful of weapons to be wasted slots, I WANT reasons to play with builds and do random cool sounding shit.But then shit like this happens, and half the weapons can no longer play the game.

How is the Spear gun not a backpack weapon?I say...is that Helldiver pulling out a harpoon half the size of his body, and... by Liberty, is he *reloading while on the move*?! And, why, it looks as if he's pulling these harpoons straight out of his ass! Its almost if...this is actually a wacky slapstick game in the guise of a military shooter!
Botsisters, bot is now the easiest faction in the game, how do we cope?
>>537744932How many do you even get? I could see sticking a couple under your backpack since they don't have that much volume at all but I agree, it's unrealistic and it should be nerfed to be a backpack gun.

future anon here with more bad tidings for the based and totally not deeply mistaken light pen aim gods among our ranks you might assume the upcoming automaton hounds are light armored chaff but they actually replace zerkers on high diff similar to rocket chickens and their armor is equivalent to light devastators i.e. mostly class 3 armored with a few class 2 spots, most prominently the neck (but not the head itself) and joint areascommon wisdom is to snipe them with ap3 or blast them with max stagger force

>>537745056Eyyy you just answered the question of how the Halo launcher could work without a backpack. As you could theoretically carry the SPINKr missles beneath your backpack. And usually, the SPINKr only has two other mags in reserve, so you could carry two under your backpack!

>>537745186I don't mind dying and I don't understand why people do. Winning, or even better, extracting gives you basically fuck all. Everything that matters is shooting enemies in a fun way and maybe SC pickups if you don't have a surplus.I was in a lobby with some guys from here yesterday and with solid 20 minutes on the timer and half the respawns they decided to turn away from a secondary objective inside the caves and go to extraction because we were fighting a breach and a hive in a tunnel chokepoint, which was fucking kino and we should have kept trying until we either succeeded or died trying.

Generally speaking it pays off to fuck off away from the rig when there's a HL, I don't think I've ever seen the regular bugs actually kill it.
>>537746169so far? the bug world primary is on. no bunkers, and POI's are pretty easy to find and usually on ground. I just ran around on dif 1 to 3 and it was pretty easy farming
I've decided to not do cave missions anymore, I'm fine with having areas where stratagems don't work, but the areas where you're supposed to be able to use them are way too inconsistent with their weird preset drop locations

>>537746169The Hive planets are pretty cool, just get one that's mainly open. My dick got hard when I saw two triple SC arrows PoIs next to each other.
>>537746169The bug planet on low levels. Kinda expect it to get nerfed when people catch on.
>>537745917Yes you absolutely fucking could, you just have to be a trained, physically fit soldier; which the Helldivers, ODSTs, Spartans, and Marines are. Also, the amount of Spears you get for the Spear gun is 12. Shoving 12 spears up your ass is less feasible than putting two missle mags beneath your backpack.
>>537746319hopefully they fix the pathfinding a bitif I need anything I drop it before going in cave and just assume I won't be getting or using anything till outside again

The only enjoyment I get in this game is griefing the other losers I play with. I will always rush to the landing craft and take off before my team can get there.

>>537744048>I googled a combat rig so that means you can fit twenty monster cans on top of an entire combat load without a backpack without any issues at all.You know a full combat load is a lot more than what's in that picture, right? And that's all without a "Support weapon". Modern soldiers are already pushing the limits on how much they can carry without fucking over their ability to move, let alone fight. As in just 10 to 15 pounds grace, and that's WITH backpacks.

Yeah, good luck with that.>Across your chestIf you think a there's enough room on the chest with everything else soldiers keep there, hell even with that rig in your pic, for even just TEN rail round boxes, let alone more, than you're fucking delusional.Actually on that note, despite the original intention of continuing to tear apart your armchair general loadout, from available space to weight issue, I'm just stick with you don't know what they fuck your talking about and not waste my time on you any further. Take your late (You) and be gone.
>>537746624I wish there was a way to block players with a connected mic from joining lobbies.
wait does the orbital laser target the worm?
Seriously though, why does the harpoon fart. Feels like it'd been fine just having a single click harpoon gun
>>537746720yeah but it targets the head which is not good because you want to blow away the belly plate
>>537746374It absolutely is more feasible. Those 12 spears will take less volume than even a single tube set. You could fit them all in the space a single one of these tubes occupy and there's two of them in every magazine! They aren't even particularly compactly made, there'a a big ass fat connecting piece between the two tubes.
>>537745402I can't say it's reliable or good, but, hypothetically, some of the highest damage you can put on this thing comes from shooting an airburst rocket into its mouth.So that could be neat to practice

>>537746215Medic armor, any weight, medium is probably the best. Light might not work, you may just get oneshotted by some stuff.Portable hellbomb (bring your own, expect your allies to waste the freebie) Gas grenadesUltimatumPrimary doesn't matter, probably the eruptor, crossbow, or purifier, but really doesn't matter.Muscle Booster (Ideally Vitality Boost, Experimental Infusion, and Stamina, too, but not getting slowed by the piss water is most important, and vitality hoost is prettymuch guaranteed)Call down your bomb, stock up on stims, and just chicken run in.Gas at your feet or cook in your hands if you start getting swarmed, Ultimatum to put holes in any heavies directly in your path.Do not stop to fight, just sprint through, and stim until you reach the lung, blow it up. That's just the most straightforward way to do it. Actually tard wrangling a group to do it is a mistake. You can do this in maybe two minutes once you understand how to navigate the caves in general, between the medic armor and Experimental Infusion, you can stim run almost the entire way there, and getting some breather time isn't THAT hard.

>>537748203Yeah completely bypassing the burrowing mechanics is bad am i right? How inbred are you? Purifier was top tier already, now its one of the main weapons that completely ignores the shit mechanics that just made most of the weapons worthless.

And that's just the typical rifleman and not a machine gunner?Ideally a solider want to carry not more than a third third body weight true, but that's rarely the case and carrying all the shit dumbass is saying with 20 induvial, heavy weights on top of it is just asinine to say is at all practical without any kind of backpack for at least some of the gear.

>>537749256According to the HD2 Modding Discord, they updated their audio system a few patches ago. This is what caused the weird shit to be cutting out or the audio glitch from the Control Group passive activating. So now you have audio cutting off completely and silent enemies due to shitty audio mixing. Fucking AH

>>537751458Caves are basically just mega cities but you can't call down any stratagems
>>537742904To be fair I heard it has like 10 Durable damage.
>>537751458I like caves. Need to plan out your attacks and go in and out a lot like town missions. It's really tense and it's fun talking out shit with my friends on what we gotta do. I hope we get more missions that are like this in the future.
I like cavesI throw fire grenade and get 400 kills while my teammates are running around like headless chickenit's fun.

What does /hdg/ think of the Dragon Roach? I think they are cool but I dont like that they spawn like Leviathans do or that you can get instagibbed sometimes just like you do with shotgun devastators.

>>537751727I think they're cool but they kinda trivialize reds even more. I imagine the harpoon will fuck them up. Kinda don't feel like there's any solid AT option for bugs right now that handle dragon roaches and all the chargers in caves. Save epoch
>>537751727The fire damage is annoyingly high but it's really just exacerbated by the fact that half the map outside of the caves are full of knee deep water which causes your dives to fuck out and restand you rather than making you actually dive. If they gave a better telegraph for their attacks or do something about the water they'd be perfectly fine

Predict how Alexus will nerf this warbond.>AR-2: Damage reduced from 75 -> 55>AR-2: Recoil increase>Silo: Reduced blast radius and demolition force.

>>537742904OH MY GOD NERF NERF NERF NERF IT'S OP
>>537752147when was the last time a weapon got hit with a direct nerf? bug fixes don't count. I want a weapon specifically targeted for nerfing the stats of for balance purposes.
The time for lean light sissy is over, its fatGOD bulking season.
so how you guys enjoying the update? aside hearing performance tanked yet again Im hearing we got classic AH update (untested and really annoying additons)
Was thinking about getting the Truth Enforcers Warbond, is that Med Pen SMG any good?
>>537752369Ultimatum got nerfed twice. Pyrotechs got nerfed for killing factory striders. Leg meta spears but that could be considered a bug.
>>537752484I'm really annoyed how hard it is to shoot anything with the tanker's cannonMost of the time the hull of the tanker blocks you from shooting anything that isn't in the fucking skyIt's like they didn't test it at all
>>537752369Over a year ago IIRC since people got fed up with Alexus's (yes, I know a lot of the other devs are responsible, he's just the face of it) shit. I want to say it was probably the eruptor, until they reworked the shrapnel into its current state.The salt clearly endures.
>>537752484it's good but I want the warbond and the other equipment they're withholding (likely APC, lumberer, and vehicle bay ship modules) NOW
>>537752493It's alright when full upgraded. I used it a lot until I got the battle rifle. But the reprimand headshots well. It's alright nothing too crazy.
>>537752484had to redownload my audio mods and verify files but the game chugs like it did before so I can't say its worse on my end. I like the new bugs, actual horror faction now on D10 and forces you to stick together.
>>537752495I barely used the ultimatum, but this is correct. In fairness, being able to completely obliterate bot side objectives like stratagem jammers was a bit much.
>>537752493High damage, medium penetration, recoil isn't bad especially with grip, good ergonomics, only weaknesses are small magazine size and no good scope. It's fine. Decent. Good even. Kinda boring to use for me.
>>537751198That doesn't mean anything. Not everybody plays to killmog. I get a lot of kills but I don't kill everything as i'm usually running in light armor. There's only so many breaches or drops to go around and not fighting them is the most efficient way to complete missions.
>>537752547The correct approach is riding the tanker and using your infantry weapons to defend it from bugs.Tanker with flamethrower guys up top is levels of kino that are reaching dangerous levels.
>>537742904Good ARs? In my helldivers 2? Are we finally retvrning to HD1 balance?
>>537752493Reload is slow as hell, but the recoil is manageable with attachments and it otherwise puts in work.
>>537752714That is fun, but doesn't negate the poor design of the tanker itself
>>537751198>>>537751007buy an ad
>>537752714This.Hooooooly shit spraying down onto bugs with the flamethrower made my heart skip a beat. Shit was fucking cool
>>537752495ultimatum counts, that was 4 months agopyro-tech grenades weren't directly nerfed, factory strider foot HP was buffed to stop the RR from one-shotting them and pyrotechs got caught in the crossfire, doesn't count.melee phasing through armour was a bug fix, doesn't countso we're looking at 4 months since the last direct, targeted nerf? and peopel are still insisting any weapon you could name will surely be the next one on the alxesus chopping block next patch
>literally untouchable until they're in melee rangehonestly I don't find it a very compelling quality for enemies
>Down in the cave's mega nest, soloing the whole thing, training 3 titans>Close every hole but the last one>Run from side to side, checking every single lane, still no open bug hole>Make so many passes that the titans have all killed each other >Still can't find the last hole, HUD still says there's still a hole???????
>>537752940Use explosive weapons
>>537752912>factory strider foot HP was buffed to stop the RR from one-shotting them and pyrotechs got caught in the crossfireRiiiiiiiight.But yeah that's why they typically release stuff pre-nerfed. Can't have anything good get nerfed. That'd upset the player base.
>>537752940>untouchablebring the loyalist, fire it at the ground
>>537742904...Well now they Really need to buff the MA5C... Especially if that thing has good upgrades.
>>537752970Or gas. Heard that shoots enemies outta the ground.Also seeing how gas gives you space to keep firing the harpoon gun, I kinda get why it has gas now. Just feels like it'd been better as just something you'd pair with gas nades.
>make new content where players are thirsting for medium pen>two days later introduce warbond with ultimate medium pen primaryalmost like it was planned or something.
>Digger chargers keep ambushing my EMS mortar sentry that's 40m away from where we are actively fighting
>>537742904Honestly being able to aim center mass and burn into main is going to make this thing do insane damage if you control your fire.
I defended hivelords here and on reddit when the update was new but honestly the novelty has worn off over time. They either need to be nerfed hard or we need a new stratagem specifically designed to deal with them that gets them to fuck off from the mission. It's not fun to just have an RNG chance to get fucked over with no real way to counter it.
>>537745393The ""insane upside"" its that protects your back from damage while atowed
>>537753027yes, right. that's literally the reason they gave.https://arrowhead.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/20519104539548--PATCH-01-003-100>Factory Strider>Slightly increased the health of its feet. It should no longer be destroyed by a single GR-8 Recoilless Rifle shot to the legs
They just keep spawning; you can't advance an inch without them chaining breaches
>>537753118>the gas harpoon was designed to deliver gas in to their tunnelsOf horse.
>>537753110I mean the big thing Coyote has it beat on is Recoil and Capacity. The Ergo of the MA5C makes it functionally almost no recoil whatsoever, while the Coyote will be an interesting test to see if weapon mods make it similar or it's stuck with worse ergo for its efficient stats. Coyote does seem like a better all-rounder than any other medium pen AR though. The MA5C really should be treated more like a medpen carbine.
>>537753269DPS issue
Just you wait, we'll make the digger warriors have the ability to call breaches while underground and then you'll see...
>>537753125I'll admit, I've been using the halo AR on D10 bugs. Its fun as hell.
>>537753335It's impossible to co-ordinate with pubbies, everyone wants to run in opposite directions and each of them brought RR or AC instead.
>>537753251The main problem I see with them is that their role in the game has no real relation to mission structure or pacing, they're just a map hazardThat is not how boss fights are supposed to work, they're supposed to be a dramatic climax to close out a quest arc, after which you get rewarded
>>537751525And that's where support weapons take over
>>537742904>Leveling my Lib Penetrator>AK completely shits all over it and is a straight upgrade with no downsidesI could've been leveling something else...
Is it really a good idea to release an update that massively increases the difficulty of the game just weeks after releasing on an entirely new platform? Especially given the new content seems reliant on warbond stratagems and weapons...
What's your winning rate with pubbies on gloomworld? They just gives up halfway.
>>537753596You'll have to level the Libpen some time anyway so what's the problem? It's not like the ARX160 is here right now.
>>537753657yes because you can choose the difficulty you like
>>537753657>Is it really a good idea to release an update that massively increases the difficulty of the game just weeks after releasing on an entirely new platform?Yes.

>>537753910addendum, the designator is a backpack
>>537753968Depends on the ergonomic stat for console/controller player's sakes. But, yeah if you can't edit this thing, a lot of people will ignore it to actually level other gear.
>>537752330it's catered to stealth/marksman divers on the bot frontevery objective you can nuke from afar is time saved, which is crucial if you want to move unseen and shoot bullets faralso I reckon most sniper bois have much less inhibitions giving up their support slot for this because nobody loves AMR
Where Warbond?
>>537753331Yeah except it also makes fire. That small difference in damage is completely overshadowed by things being set on fire too. And it's not just the coyote; the MA5C is basically just a worse Judi with better egro; and if you build Judi for egro, you can make up most of that difference and STILL achieve better recoil with the barrel mods...AH got timid with the Halo gear, plain and simple. The armor passive is just kind of ass and weapons are simply down-grades. Not extreme down grades true, they're USEABLE, but still downgrades nonetheless. They don't really need much to be Proper side-grades either. Now don't get me wrong, I don't want pay to win but for a warbond that costs Extra and doesn't refund any SC? The equipment should AT LEAST properly measure up to what we already have...
>>537753968Are you going to fucking post this every single time a new weapon is going to be released? It was the fucking same with the variable and the pacifier, you can't edit shit that isn't released yet you fucking retard.
>>537753689>You'll have to level the Libpen some time anywayYou guys dont grind levels for guns you don't want to use..Right?
>>537753981They didn't finish one of the missions because he kept dying trying to solo on his own in killzone light armor.
>>537753968It has an optic and underbarrel rail so I would be surprised if it has no customization when it's actually released.
>>537753658I did three D7 quickjoins early morning yesterday on Oshaune with the new mission types, got each mission type and hive lords twice, all three missions failed, closest we got was extract on the oil mission.

>>537754236Yeah and they've clearly planned around that this time to create a problem on Tuesday and then sell the solution on Thursday. Especially for Xbox players that won't have a bunch of super credits farmed up yet and will have to spend real money for it.
>>537753689>You'll have to level the Libpen some time anywayNo I dont
Why is the performance of the game so fucking dogshit now? When those gloom bugs pop their death gas my game goes from 120 to 15 fps it's fucking terrible
>>537754375Hard shell for the 9head simple as.
>>537754448have you considered turning some settings down? I'm not experience any problems with slow downs but I'm only running on medium at best
>>537752704>not fighting them is the most efficient way to complete missions.I wish more people understood that. There is a reason they added that "kill bugs" meter on missions, to incentivise engaging them, becauce otherwise there is never any reason to engage in combat unless its a mission goal (and it seldom is) or you are forced to in order to accomplish a mission goal (and Oshaune pretty much forces you).
>>537750727retard
>>537754330Are you fucking kidding me? 360 shots of this? While the halo gun has 32 shots?
>>537754375When I read the patch, I thought they have lower armor tier than regular bug instead of the exact opposite.
With the way the Coyote description mentions its "old-fashioned iron-sights" I almost expect it to not have any alternate sights as weapon attachments. Have its attachments been leaked yet?
>>537754495I have everything on low.2080ti, 7 2700x, 24GB ram
>>537752493I hate it. Fire rate is too slow.
>>537754613The Halo warbond is a noob trap aimed at the new Xbox players. Nothing in there is worth getting even for if it was the standard 1000, nevermind 1500 with no SCs in the warbond.
>d10 with pubbiesI feel that caves are far less worse than actual surface. If not hive lord is wrecking your shit already, then those dragons, then finally fuckton of burrow spewers and chargers.QUESTIONS:- I can't help but to rely on heavy armor. It's just dying on every occasion is tiresome and upsetting. As for passives I am torn between siege ready or extra grenades.- How to deal with fuckton of chargers? I just run dry of termites and AT. Quasar and laser are too slow.- I resort to sentries to act as a decoy.- Do I get it right? It keeps crashing with initial landing, MAYBE wrong conclusion, but moving your hellpod in air tend to crash?
>>537753480socialization issuejoin a lobby
>>537751834>>537751897>epocWait what. I thought it was garbage. Did they buff it or what
>>537754852Doko
>>537754719Nah man, if you love abusing the warp pack then the armor is the best armor in the game due to the fact that you can never break your legs which spamming the warp usually causes. Plus the added bonus of being unable to be detected by enemies when stealthy. The MASC is also really enjoyable, especially it's custom firstperson view that no other weapon in the game currently has. Everything else in the warbond is shit.
>think of doing a solo D4 to see what the caves actualy feel like>select ammo pack>3 empty stratagem slotsok I genuinely have no idea what to even take into the caves.I know the whole "lol its D4 its piss easy" but this is like gonna be a problem when I later play with friends on higher Difficulty. what shit do people actualy take for these missions?
>>537753480>everyone wants to run in opposite directions>you must heckin stick togetherskill issue.
>>537755053there are holes in the roof that lets you call in resupplies and stuff
>>537754684cpu issue. You could try using dxvk which should help.
>Solo silo>3 min cool downYeah it's kinda shit. For a start that's job is>Get rid of just this one thingI don't think it's worth even considering unless it's 120 seconds or less.
stratagem that carpet bombs the map with ammo boxes
Are mechs unironically meta for cave diving?
>>537754828>I can't help but to rely on heavy armor. It's just dying on every occasion is tiresome and upsetting. As for passives I am torn between siege ready or extra grenades.your issue is getting flanked and attacked from behind. medium helps with that. your second issue is not having the reaction time to stim when shoved into a close encounter. heavy armor helps with that. if you work on these 2 issues (having 0 idea of what's going on around you, and having bad reaction time) you can drop heavy armor easily>how to deal with fuckton of chargers? I just run dry of termites and AT. Quasar and laser are too slow.dodge them using light armor.that or EAT. that can kill 3 chargers in 1 go.>I resort to sentries to act as a decoy.sounds like your damage output is extremely low. as if you're running away from enemies rather than killing them
>>537755247they're very good now
>>537755209speaking of silo does it like "sync up" so if 3 people throw a silo and only one uses a remote do all 3 fire or is each silo hard assigned a remote?
>>537755237you have my vote
So all of a sudden people remembered this thing and that it was good?
>>537755192Thanks anon.
>>537754828if you can take sentries then you can take EAT or Commando
>>537755280I would think not, but it would be funny if so. If that is the case, that means any remote would control all of them, opposed to each dropped remote being tied to just the one.
>>537755148the fundemental problem with experienced quickjoin players is you learn rapidly to be self sufficient. And thats very hard to do on Oshaune, since the place is designed to force working together (close quarters in caves, keeping the truck alive, engaging the hivelord).
>>537755352what are you talking about? I see people run that pretty commonly. And even if they didn't, I mean, yeah, what would you expect when they put people in an environment where it's gimmick is more limited resources?
>>537755415Just take a mech in there and solo
How badly am I gonna do underground with this loadout>Reprimand>Ultimatum>firecrackers>Light siege ready>Grenade launcher>Supply pack>Strafing run>EATs
>>537755352as a quickjoin player, I frequently used it
>>537755032>I thought it was garbage>listening to shittersIt is capable of one-shotting Chargers and Impailers and two shotting bile titans and dragon roaches. As far as AT options go it has the highest reserve ammo and it can be reloaded by supply pack.
>>537754684holy shit my rig is kicking yours' ass and it's turing / intel / 16gb
>>537755534maybe replacing strafing run with with an exo, you're fine
>>537755247Yep was able to walk in, shoot down the hivemind thing, and walk out with ammo to spare in my mech. difficulty 9.
>>537755053problems that needs solutions when cave diving:bile titan holesbug holes in generalheavies in generalcrowd control or chaff DPSbile titan holes are the big one with thel east options. you need either the ultimatum, the SPEAR, or the portable hellbomb, or you need some way to either kill a bile titan as it comes out of the hole, or failing that you need to bait one into stomping on the hole for you
>>537754828I don't know how much of this is a shitpost or genuine but the only time heavy armor is the "correct" answer is specifically Heavy Fortified because the extra base DR has a massive impact on the double dip of Fortified explosive resist DR and enables you to survive any combination of indirect explosions any faction can shit out. Otherwise heavy armor is vastly inferior to light armor due to the extra durability functionally accomplishing nothing. Anything that one-shots you will still one shot you and anything that takes an extra hit to kill you has chain strikes that'll still kill you due to the stagger and reduced movement speed making it impossible move out of range. The "Best" option is generally considered to be Siege Ready light armor unless you're building around a specific passive or gimmick. Heavy armor is usable now after all the buffs so you can take it if you like it, but it's almost always inferior to Light armor.Well there's also the Heavy gas resist armor making you completely immune to gas if you take Vitality Enhancement with it.
>>537755352This + MG has been my main loadout since launch. I just love shooting my gun.
>>537755032Yeah the buffed it's accuracy. But honestly, yes it's still kinda shit. pretty much every option does something better than it in one way another. HOWEVER, with it's high projectile speed, and ability to shoot somewhat quickly, it's may be the second best option for killing dragons (The best is still the spear, but the spear takes your backpack), so it's going to move up a little bit on the meta totem pole because of the dragon I think.
Need the Caliban from Lancer for these caves
>>537755673You are right of course. In terms of raw functionality and gameplay power light armor is the best choice.However medium and heavy armor just look way cooler.
>>537755567What could be my PC's issue? seems like there is a bottleneck
>>537755032the only thing holding back the epoch was the spread and they fixed that. it's solid, just takes getting used to. which naturally makes shitters seethe
>>537755551>It is capable of one-shotting Chargers and Impailers and two shotting bile titansSo like... every dedicated anti tank weapon we have?
>>537755262>>537755371Maybe then I should ask for loadout suggestions. Anything that worked for me before for D10 bugs just doesn't work right OR I was always a scrub.- breaker incendiary / cookout, ultimatum, thermite grenades- light armor Acclimated OR Siege Ready; or medium with grenades- mg sentry, strafing run, RR, gas grenades>>537755673I always was under impression that any Heavy Armors was just designed for bots to withstand occasional heavy hitting.Going full brap sounds fun.
>>537755496caves were not the issue.
>>537755032It still is. Practically useless against dragons because of slow ass projectile, huge bullet drop and massive plasma damage falloffEpoch is purely the contrarians choice, hence why you got some dedicated Epochfag here sucking it off.
>>537756114>Practically useless against dragons because of slow ass projectile, huge bullet drop and massive plasma damage falloff>>537750561
>>537756114I don't care. I like the Epoch for its ammo economy and I don't have to wait forever like with the Quasar.
>>537756114Nah mate, it's projectiles fast, what are you on? I like most was saying it was shit before this update, but yeah, with dragons around it's a much more solid option in the bug front compared to it's peers.
>>537755851>>537755952So for the dragon do you need max charge shots or what?
>>537756114Learn to aim controller baby.
>new update allegedly can brick your PCDoombros...
>>537755237I always wanted a stratagem that was like a random bullshit dump. Like have your destroyer launch a cargo container full of random weapons, backpacks, and supplies that explodes like a pinata as it crashes onto the planet. Call it "surplus munitions" or something. It's really helpful but completely unreliable. You call it in hoping for stims, but get 8 grenade refills.
>>537756618yes but that's true for all heavies
>>537755954Yes except on these cave missions you have way more avilable ammo than with any of the other options. If you run supply pack you could get a theoretical 60 or so shots out of the thing without needing a resupply drop.In reality you probably won't get that many as you'll need to dip into your supply pack for other reasons but it still blows all other AT out of the water in that regard.
>>537756618I think so yeah, so there is the risk factor, but it should also be noted that the timing on it isn't that hard (I feel like it's easier than maxing out the rail gun in comparison) so the risk should be low once you git gud at it. If you're bad at timing things though I'd pick something else.
>>537756114Epoch has clear downsides compared to other AT options but also the biggest upside of them all - no backpack.
>>537756671It bricked Clay's SSD.
>>537756746no backpack while still being reloadable*
>>537756746>no backpack.Like the QC, EATs and Commando? No backpack is standard for the light AT options
>>537756114>Epoch is purely the contrarians choiceone of the streamers (Thicc) was sucking it off yesterday, but he and his team of 150s were also failing D10s the majority of the time, so yeah.
My PC fucking crashes everytime the hive lord comes out.
What is this?
>>537757083warbond token
>>537756956Validate game files (and clear shader cache for good measure)
https://x.com/helldivers2/status/1963181931354362294warbond tokens should be on your account today if you were eligible. Read the link in the tweet.
>validate game files
>>537757083YOU HAVE BEEN ISSUED 1 (ONE) C-01 PERMIT THAT'S WHY THE SKULL IS PINK
>>537756851>fire my 1 (one) stowed EAT>no more AT until I leave the cave or find a hole in the roofSheeeeeeeit
>>537755032>backpackless AT>Commando gets 4 shots and then is done till it cools down, and you're lucky to get 4 heavy kills out of that, but you likely won't>EAT gets 2 shots, two dead heavies and it's on cooldown>Quasar gets a single shot and then has to wait 15 minutes>Railgun gets 20 shots, and you'll be lucky to turn all of those into heavy kills, far more likely you'll be plinking something quite a bit>none of these can also do crowd control>Epoch, 15 shots, can easily turn all 15 shots into heavy kills, but even when you fail there it's just a matter of a second shot, not multiple others>also can do crowd control, delete patrols, kill multiple heavies at once if they are bunched togetherIt's strong, people just don't get it.
When do we get our capes for being superior PC players.
>shader cache is emptyWHERE ARE THEY!?
>>537757245it does help with some issues but not all. I suspect the amount of players are causing a lot of the issues, especially yesterday. I had little to no issues before yesterday.
>>537757427How much damage does epoch actually do per shot?
>>537757427>15 minutesseconds, anon. Seconds.
>>537756790That's actually embarrassing, though I don't know who that e-celeb is.
>>537757532feels like minutes>>537757519800 direct and 800 explosive
>>537757427>also can do crowd control, delete patrols,It's aoe is barely a thing, you're lucky if you manage to kill more than 2 medium with one fully charged shot
>>537756851You can't call more eats in the middle of a cave now can you? QC you have, which personally I prefer over it, but you do have more fire power in any given moment with Epoch than the QC.It's ok to admit that a weapon that was bad before is now good due to the circumstances Anon. It was bad, and now it's better because new niches are in demand.
>>5377575191600 at AP5 split equally between projectile and explosion on a fully charged shot.
>>537757601see you say that, but in my last round I did I saw the funny yellow skull and numbers while shooting the bug breach, so basically, you're retarded
>>537757083was gonna post the samelog in, see that, wonder "wtf is this shit"maybe its a warbond token. maybe we get access to one hour in the DO's personal sauna.
>>537757245Steam launcher is notorious for failing to properly update all files if your internet connection is choppy. Validating files is the "have you tried turning it on and off" for crashing that fixes majority of the issues. If anon has nothing else than "my game crashes when specific files are loaded" (like Hive Lord model), its completely reasonable to first check if said files are ok. Do you have any better suggestions?
>>537757638>You can't call more eats in the middle of a cave now can you?All cave objectives except for the gloom lung are in big open sections, so calling in EATs isn't much of an issue
>>537757874>hey, P4, why aren't you joining us in here to get the mega nest?>t-that's not the main o-objective>haha, okay! it seems you'd like a lobby of your own! go get 'em champ!>*kicks you*
>>537757874You say that any running back at all is in fact, annoying. I don't know care if only take you 10 seconds to get there and back at that point the value of the eats goes down a lot. And there are situation you'll run into where it's more than that.>>537757676>>537757427It's got like as much AoE as the plasma punisher. It's not really that much of a strong suit.
Why the fuck do the hive drill missions keep breaking
so hold on, if i get this straight, the diggers are a random seed, right? meaning that you could fight predators and have to deal with diggers at the same time>have to focus on bugs rushing you down, flanking, while also some dirty diggers are invincible to you UNLESS you use explosives
>>537756790And I guarantee he is the only person that happened to. You need a lot of circumstances to line up for that to happen. HD2 (or gameguard specifically) froze his PC while he was streaming and recording his own stream. This either caused his ongoing video recording to balloon in size or get corrupted which when it was written to his SSD was large enough that it triggered the ongoing Windows 10/11 bug that is bricking SSDs when files that are too large are being written to them.Windows bricked his SSD. For anybody who is aware of it and has SSDs, the current smart thing to do is make sure you are not currently on that specific update of Windows in order to ensure your SSDs aren't at risk.HD2/Gameguard seemed to have partially caused the issue, but it was Windows that bricked his SSD. The fact that Microsoft has allowed this update to be active for so long is insane.
>>537758050they reverted every single fix in the last patch.>laugh emote is silent>warp pack blocks your screen when prone + FPV>terminals are unusable if they land slightly wrongetc etc... all the old bugs are now back because they used an old version of the game and all the fixes got overwritten
>Going to fail the MO because everyone would rather do D10s and keep failing the mission without extracting samples rather than keeping it at D7 and extracting with samples
>>537758241>they used an old version of the game and all the fixes got overwrittenoh come on, you're fucking with methere's no way they're that incompetent
>>537758290but le big bug appear on d8 :(
I wont dive on Oshaune again (even to sc farm, its was not panning out better than Fenmire), will dive on Hellmire when its attacked again during this MO. Have fun wading in piss, cucks.
>>537753968You can't do attachments on datamined weapons retard
>>537758310YES WAY.not he first time this happened.they added a range indicator to spear when you were too close.it was removed right after.0 version control.
New update for bugs is pure unfun crap.Uninstalled.
>>537758310they are, their quality assurance team is non-existent. they don't use the hotfixed versions of the build but rather the major update version as a base for future updates
>>537756007For bots specifically you're either nuked out of existence or chipped to death (most bot weapons lose damage the further they travel). Heavy Fortified and Heavy Extra Padding(only 1 heavy armor has this perk) help with both of those and are very strong picks, however you can be chased down by berserkers and hulks on normal spawns which becomes a very noticeable problem during extremely heavy waves of units and neither stops you from being zapped out of existence by turrets and factory striders or minigun devs that RNG a spray directly onto you. During Incinerator corps spawns anything that tags you will set you on fire and your armor basically goes right out the window unless you spend the entire game prone.Heavy armor just eats up too much speed and stamina and you end up in far worse spots that you can't simply run from while still being obliterated by rng or a few specific units, especially if you aren't taking the warp backpack whereas light armor simply lets you just leave any engagement against bots.
>>537758290they'll stage a hellmire attack at some point and give us a reward for defending it, despite the fact that we literally have to defend it if we want to keep doing the new content lmao
>>537758430this is the first time I've ever heard of this. it's not even in the undocumented changes list on the wiki.
>>537758517It's a small Swedish team. They don't have the resources to do proper QA like big studios have.
>>537758290>keeping it at D7 and extracting with samplesd7s are failing as well. You cant extract with samples if the pelican burrows into the ground and stays there.
>lower the difficulty as anons said>dragonroach immediately chasing my ass, burrower bugs are running after mei got filtered, and yet, i wonder what i should have done instead.every problem has a solution, and ive yet to wrap my head around it
>>537758310This patch has debunked my theory that they where pushing city maps because they wanted to slow down SC farming, because the new bug front is OP for that now.Instead it just confirmed what I though, that the devs are retarted and probably didn't even relize how the maps effects SC accusation rates
>>537758723start day drinking and be literally him
>>537758629sure they do, they just (by their own admission) chose to shit out content rather than QA. They know thats an issue. Waiting for them to actually do something about it.
>>537758626it was in the game for 2 weeks.your circle and spinner turned white when the target was too close
I will actively avoid the Hivelord until swiggers nerf it's HP
>>537758723The dragonroach is a situational awareness test, not a gear check.
L..Lobby *cough* D..doko?
>>537758310makes sense. if you look at warbond relase and patches and content. relasing freedomflame same time you nerf fire. Even now, putting out halo warbond with majority light pen weapon when most people will bring med pen with flash light in gloom. timing is just wrong.teams dont talk and do what ever
>>537758938seething solonegro
>>537758730need around 300 sc to get the ODST warbond, how much per new mission is there on average? Is the SC mostly only on the surface? City bugs bunkers were insane for farming
>>537758938Pretty sure avoiding it is the point.
>>537758962>spawn in>dragonroach has sounds happening from the opposite of where it is, and is constantly on your asssituational awareness check my ass, i know the monster energy dragon is flying after me, because its chasing my ass harder than indians chase google play cards.
>hive worlds are har-Emancipator mech>but-Dont care Emancipator mech
>>537757083>he doesn't know about pink skeletonsHonestly normies these days are clueless.
>>537759060It varies, I've gotten literraly zero SC's in a mission to at most 180. but if I had to guess an average I'd say about 50? Get the SC arrow mod if you haven't yet. There's now SC buried underground so you'll risk missing those if you don't.
>>537759173I dumped all of it's ammo into the hivelord and it's still alive THOUGHEVERBEIT
>>537759076idk bro if you know where it is just shoot it? My squads last night were mulching them in 0.5s with HMGs, Rocket sentries, and Emancipators. Not exactly the optimal BT-hunting loadouts. You literally just have to keep your head on a swivel and stay mobile
>>537758962I do see the dragons before they strafe me, but I can't even fucking dodge their breath attack because of how SHIT the visual feedback of the attack is. why am I getting ignited by the breath when the green goo did not even hit my character? the moment it starts strafing you, it is inevitable most of the time unless you have a warp pack
Quasar is literally god tier on Hiveworld map right now
>>537759060it almost all on the surface, Ive only seen one cargo container poi, no bunkers. that said, if your doing d1s, its pretty anecdotal that its better than anywhere else at the moment, im getting more on fenmire than I did in about ten d1s on Oshaune. YMMV. People will say its "better" because its on the ground/no bunkers, but a warp pack and crossbow anywhere else make that irrelevant.
>>537759272Dont care already solod the 3 stalker nests and the mega nest before i came back out of the caves in my Emancipator mech.
>>537759456>>537759173I wish they'd buff the machine gun mech. I think it's more fun but the Emancipator is just unarguably better.I want a lasor themed mech though.
>>537759328Because it's basically just the regular BT spit with an extra fire property. You know how titans tend to slow you and deal chip damage in a way wider radius than the spit suggests? Same thing. Dive the moment it spits anywhere near you.
>>537759397Epoch is better in every conceivable way
>>537759592We need a flamethrower mech
Leveling up the Adjudicator rn, is it worth it considering the new AK coming in? How good is it with all its attachments to handle vert recoil?
>>537759678don't let the swedes hear this, they are allergic to adding in content we already had in the previous game, going to need another half a year, sorry
>>537759760We dont know because leakers cant access its attachments until its actually released.
>>537759760>is it worth it considering the new AK coming in?wait 24 hours for an answer
Hivelord would be perfect if we can crack it's exoskeleton more easily and focus fire on the exposed flesh. I don't want them to nerf it's 150k HP, just make the Hivelord armor easier to crack open

>>537760441Would be hilarious if they did the exact same release cycle with the APC and Illuminate Cultist just like last year >Swedes having to spend time after current update to fix the game/ buff a bunch of stuff again >Takes up to 2 months cause swedes are inherently lazy >Game stagnates, population drops due to lack of content >Game Awards arrives, they have John PSA Diver make the speech on live stage again. >Drops the trailer that includes Illuminate Cultists and the APC >"Update is out right now" >Also drops another warbond during/ slightly after the update dropped
>>537761056I'd take my 2-month spring break, then the 2-month summer break, the 1-month "about to be back to work" therapy break, then the 4-month fall break and then go on a cross-year vacation with my winter break. All paid, of course

>>537761056I would balance the player's arsenal for the better but most players won't like that I would make enemies far more aggressive and accurate.

>>537761056I'd be trying to make a game where all of the player's equipment feels good to use while trying to maintain the game more challenging. That honestly does not seem like a hard feat to pull off either. They just need to ramp up the amount of enemies and create more situations like the mega bases and these caves where players are forced to fight and carve their way to objectives.
Turn off Crossplay
rupture warriors are fucking annoying as fuckeverything else is ok on the hive words but these fucks are unavoidable damageyou can try to dodge it any way you want it will do a instant 180 as it emerges to slash youand it's another fucking enemy that need explosive dmh to deal withreally getting tired of these new additions requiring the same loudout

>>537761056Imagine being such a 4th world indian scammy piece of shit that you even consider an idea of using whatever smallest fracture of power you have just to make others people as miserable as you are.
I'm not sure which is better against the roachRR or EpochRR has the benefit of instant-fire and if aimed well can one-shot.But the being able to bring backpacks alongside Epoch is a huge boon to versatility that RR sorely lacks.On the flipside RR ironically only takes up one stratagem slot, but I'm not sure what one would bring instead of the backpack. Shield emplacement perchance? :^)
>>537761986tested it againit works on normal worldson the hive world, they ignore which direction youre facing when you throw the stratagem ballwhat the fuck is going on at AH studios? they dont playtest their shit THIS much?
ugliest helmet in the game?

>>537762240one more gamer needed
>hmmm time to grind some weapon XP>I know, I'll go fight bots, because they are so piss easy and so vulnerable to light pen that it doesn't matter what primary I bring
>light acclimated>epoch>ballistic shield>your one-handed smg of choice>grenade pistol>pyrotech grenade>2x free slotsLooks absolutely retarded on paper but this setup has carried me far. You can bait out the diggy boys by ADSing with the shield out, then just circle strafe em and they go down ezpz. Epoch solves anything bigger than a hunter and you can add w/e else you want for surface ops.
>>537761601>They just need to ramp up the amount of enemiesthey basically admitted their game cannot handle that.
>>537762087The hive lung was also supposed to have tendrils you follow to it but as far as i seen they only appear right next to it

I just remembered we still don't have full loadout presets yet. I am now mad again, and I haven't even dropped into a mission.

>>537762719>>537763049They are horribly incompetent and are coasting along solely on the gameplay.
>>537762087to be fair, their words did not match what they even showed in the video, and there are bits of the caves that are dark enough that a flashlight would be of use, but they tend to be short connecting bits that are not enough to warrant the choice.
>FAILED TO JOINFAGGOT DISCORD TRANNY GET THE FUCK OUT OF THE FUCKING LOBBY AND LET ME IN, FUCKING TROONS
>>537751206The amendment is decent on bots due to the demo force and is okay for illuminateAnyone who dislikes it is just low IQ, bad at the game, or both.

>>537762732>>537762950they just need a black coat with yellow trims, that's it. Keep the helldivers colors sacred, stop with this rainbow shit.
>>537763174They don't want to add in because they don't want players "Using the same load out evert time". Funny enough NOT having presets tends to make me do just that, since I often feel to lazy to switch every primary/secondary/grenade/armor/ (And helmet and cape since I'd have to match them to the amor)
>>537763341Fug, meant to reply to this.>>537759958
>>537763196Destiny 2 used that same tactic, and see where that got them. Of course, AH could stop dev on HD2 tomorrow and it would still be a gigantic success for them.
>tell /hdg/ that bots are more popular because you have less gear checks and thus can bring whatever you like and want, in comparison to bugs>get laughed at because "durr bugs are ez">/hdg/ now suffers the dirt nigger bug strain and practically needs AP3 or the same loadout to stand a chanceNow look where we are.Its almost as if having a balance of being able to use whatever loadout you want is way more fun than being forced into bringing the same 3 loadouts just to not be a deadweight.See on you on Fenmire, Helldiver.
>>537762851They are full of shit though. The enemy spawns have fluctuated over the course of the game's lifespan multiple times and whether it was higher or lower, that hasnt had a significant effect on the performance.There are also certain things that could be rolled back, like particle effects/fog which take a toll on performance and enjoyment in favor having more enemies if they really need to scrape the bottom of the barrel for some more resources allocation.
>>537762048This. I always bring my trusty bushwacker against the bugs.
>>537763558too bad war striders exist now so every not-AT support weapon is no longer viable on bots
>dragon vomits everywhere around me>take little to no damage>try to run away since it's flying in front of me>start burning>there's no fire near me>jump to a "safe" spot>there's invisible fire there as well>dieGetting really tired of your shit, Sweden...
>>537763395>Using the same load out evert timeI'd have filled out as many slots as I could already just coming up with different themes. A laser loadout with the sickle, talon, LC, laser guard dog. A big iron cowboy loadout. A full lethal gas loadout. Guy who throws grenades everywhere. I'd be clicking on a different one every time cause it'd be so easy. But yeah, i'm more like you with just the one loadout. Click on some options and stick with them for a several missions, only slightly changing the strategems, maybe.
The Epoch is the solution to all of your problems.>AT: check>Mass amounts of enemies: check>Lots of ammo: checkIt's insane that so few people use it.
>gas grenade launcher>incel grenade launcher >China Lake, 3+1 rounds per reload for balance
>>537763558i've been doing d10 cave exploring with the pummeler SMG that has no damage and no penetration
>>537763671I'd rather have the occasional heavy enemy require AT or sustained fire to die, than chaff enemies being invulnerable unless you waste explosives to get them out.Not to say that you cant use the same explosives to kill other things, but its the idea of "there is this enemy that is invincible UNLESS you waste resources to lure it out. Btw its a normal, common enemy."Its the way they implemented them that is bullshit. Even squids are way better with their shields, cause you can blast them with a Peacemaker. Bugs, lmao better load up on plasma, crossbow, eruptor or throw grenades.
How TF are guys finding Hive Lords so often? I completed 17 missions so far and not a single one showed up. WTF is this bullshit?
i'm 96% sure most of the gameplay decisions are not only backed by incompetence and lack of skills to handle sub D7 difficulties but also because in their eyes HD2 is still a "wacky satirical parody" game to them therefore the player getting fucked over is par for the course
>>537763779I was thinking that maybe I should try fucking around making a macro for quickly inputting diffrent loads outs. Shame though that I don't know what I'm doing to much so It'll probably break with each update which sounds like to much working upkeeping them.
>bile titan dies>it's body slingshots forward and crushes me>it teleports back to where it was standing MALICIOUSCODING
>>537764038if you ever look at how their armor system works, or how they 'balans' weapons by caliber, youre starting to wonder what the fuck kinda crack they were smokingas if they had two teams working on the game but with zero communication, so one team was trying to copy sim-like ballistics and whatnot, while the other team was actually trying to make a COOP PvE Horde Shooter, not ArmA 4
>>537764034apparently the just pop up on one planet, so make sure you're on the right one that has them.
>>537764182wait just how big is the ah team again? It's not like they fucking work on both sides of the planet with a facecam meeting every 5 months, right?
>>537763784The splash AoE on it is pathetic and you're not really gaining anything vs a handful of purifier shots. And an AT weapon that charges to shoot and takes 2 to kill a charger is useless in a real scenario.
>>537764014>I'd rather have the occasional heavy enemy require ATWar striders aren't occasional. They spawn in hulk numbers. They're in every patrol, on ever objective and ever poi.
>>537764191I thought only one planet has the caves and new enemies. The one we got after liberating Hellmire. What's the other one?

>>537764034They dont show up on every mission, its just luck. I beleive you also have to play on D7 or higher. You will either get Dragon Roaches or a Hive Lord as an environmental modifier.
>>537764034Oshaune d7+ geological surveys
>>537764378What the fuck is that picPost cute anime girls instead or something, I almost threw up
>>537764386I only play on D10 so it can't be the difficulty. I'm just unlucky I guess. I wish there was a "KILL 3 HIVE LORDS" or something mission.
It's insane how a single weekend of debugging would stretch this game's enjoyment for months on end and pipe down the reddit crowd (biggest mouths in the fanbase) yet these people just do not get it, or are too fucking conditioned to be lazy bums by their own laws to do it. It's aggravating.
>>537764514lol sorry>>5377643783/4
>>537764014>war striders>occasionallollmao even
>>537764272their website says 100+, but, yknow.one example would be that the patriot uses the same projectile for the gatling gun as the gatling sentry, the machine gun sentry AND the machine gun, so if you were to try and buff any of those, you would have to introduce a new entry, or buff all of those things at once
>>537764335From what I've seen, it only spawns on the Oshaune planet, and it seems playing on dff 7+ on Geo survey is the most likely way to get it to spawn. Might take you bit though doing that, so good luck.
>>537763491Destiny 2 was godawful thougheverbeit.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jMlfE4yoG5IThat's one bouncy boi.Took them how long (?) to add two (2) new animations to the APC. At this pace we might finally get it in like 2 years or so.

>Urchin grenades stun lock players anymore while it's active and stuck on them.Lame.
arrowhead fix your fucking shit
>>537765196no
>>537763671Reminder, that the reason for the incredibly unsatisfying gameplay before the "buff patch" was because they were balancing the factions with "rock paper scissors" balancing where each faction was supposed to only be functionally vulnerable to one loadout. They are literally doing the same again, and they started with the "bring machine guns to squids because fleshmobs" thing.
>go to test RR vs Epoch against roaches>think it'll be 3 or so roaches total>they spawn in with no end in sight>sometimes have to fight 2 at the same timeGood thing I'm a stim-fiend, but holy fuck that was a lot of bullshit.
Gas dog seems pretty good against digger warriors, I feel like it makes them miss more often.

Is this how it feels to be a European women? I've lost count of how many times the game has raped me.
>>537765631>ESL turd worlder>shit at the gameSad! Many such cases.
On average, how often does anyone actually extract on Oshaune d10 dives? There's so much shit to deal with every pub game I've had has wiped with nothing to show for it since completing the objectives but not extracting with samples doesn't do shit thanks to the resistance.

The only downsides I see it having is little to no customization, since the scope and mag are custom models.>>537751525At 75 base damage per shot with 10 durable AND ignition, it'd still be doing more damage than the Lib Penetrator.
>>537753689>You'll have to level the Libpen some time anyway so what's the problem?I'm not some retard that intentionally uses guns I don't like just because number go up
>>537766094Wait, I'm gonna ask something stupid. Does more resistance mean more spawns in general? Feels like I couldn't even relax with the new bugs at d10.
