Peace between Super Earth and the Automatons!
Why why WHY did they add another chaff mob with medium armor? Hive guards alone already greatly reduced how useful light pen can be on bugs. These fucking warriors are cancer.
Eravin!
4th for bugs
>*solves cave bugs*Say "THANK YOU, PP-SAN!!"
>>537830331
Automaton wives...
>>537829758I'm pretty sure it's just a few subhuman faggots from that d*scord that goes around shitting up random /vg/ threads. We've got their attention because of the new update, so they're putting some focus on us.Notice how the fagposting about that literallywho started around the same time.
>>537830472>Say "THANK YOU, PP-SA-ACKKKKKKKKKKKK
>>537830472>eruptor but weak and gay
I just came back from the cool helldivers convention and they all said you have this stratagem always available and memorised, anon...
straight or gay, simping for vtubers is off-topic posting as well as faggot behavior
>>537830304you can circle strafe them on their lunge, try targeting their tails, they have like half the hp of normal hive guardsyou can't circle them if they're passively walking towards you but their little lobster tails poke up just enough to shoot, they just require you to focus and aim.I think the shit about them aimbotting hosts are true though, not fun.
>>537830523this is way more relevant nowadays lol
I keep getting ragdolled into shit and getting stuck underground
>>537830757use warp pack to unstuck
GOD I can't sleep. I wanna play more and hunt another Hive Lord.
If you have a 4000 or 5000 series card enable motion smoothing. Went from 70-80 fps with stutters to 115-125 stable at 4K.
>>537830669nta, but i disagree. It's short reload and ability to arc over hordes allows you to pick certain targets more easily, fast reload and decent splash makes quick work of the spewers as well.
So it the Digger Charger is mostly covered in level 6 armor, can the flamethrower even damage it? Can't use the laser cannon now on em
>>537830808I shouldn't need to waste a backpack and stratagem slot to fix the mistake of a lazy swigger.
>>537830830is that in-game or nvidia settings?
>medic armor and supply backpack joins your lobby
>>537830649The only time I've ever died to my own shrapnel with this gun has been in caves, and it's been frequent. I much prefer the crossbow.
>>537830328If this naughty twink was ever on my squad, I would RAPE HIM ORALLY
>>537830845I have no idea but they do have less HP if you get past their armor level

Yeah, sorry guys, this isn't very much fun. I'll wait until they make burrowing attacks not instant, and hopefully reduce the armor on the warriors.
finally killed one
>>537831035*Shoot you*

>>537831085I just want them to stop shattering my legs instantly
>>537831092What do you get when you kill one
I’m new to the game, still level 11. I love shotguns. How good are they in helldivers? Which one is the best I can get at my level? I only have the first warbond.Also, what’s a good low level load out to pair with a shotgun?Thanks
>>537831035Don't worry I'll just take it off your corpse
>>537831202a very democratic fuck all
>>537831052Just sent you a friend request

>>537831202lollmao
>>537830845I killed a few with the torcher alone. It didn't feel like they had better amour than a normal charger.
>>537830685You have 10 seconds to explain how it is any worse than fags simping for waifus that are literally just drawings like eagle, "seaf chan", or anthro bugs
>>537830472feels like shit when you get those seeds where every second enemy is a fucking Alpha commander because they stagger 40 feet back per shot and take like 6 shots to die

>>537831363Control Group is only good for the warp pack.I'd say wait until people have some hands on experience with the new equipment to see how strong it is.
>>537831475just bring a talon or senator as your secondary and hope someone else will plug the titan hole
>>537831363If you are going to farm then CG. If not then whichever looks fun. You can probably pick up some of the new weapons when people die tomorrow to try them out.

>>537831505How do I add console frens
>>537831210Mainly the Breaker and Cookout>Breaker: Baseline auto shotty>Cookout: Dragonsbreath, excellent performance for bugsAbove all else, Pump-action shotguns stagger enemies while auto shotguns normally don't, a key power for when your enemy is up in your face most of the time such as bugs. Pick ur poison.

>>537831471Not him, but 2D > 3DSimple as.
I dislike Eravin more or less purely because of the homo shilling, until he became or started forcing himself as twinkdiver coombait he was just an inoffensive autistuber with a virtual avatar.
>>537831092Grats! Just killed one with my boyfriend, too.
>>537831210Shotguns are super fun and do well against most enemies since their per-pellet damage is enough to bully weak points anyway. Get EATs, 500k, and your backpack of choice, 4th slot can be anything you enjoy, and you can do anything as long as you know the matchup.
>>537831210supply pack + grenade launcher, shotgun boogs that get closeyou just need anti tank solutions that can you find in either the democratic detonation (thermite) or servants of freedom (ultimatum) warbonds
>>537831092How? I just had a lobby dedicated only to trying to kill it with everyone bringing Commandos, EATs, hellbombs, cuck chairs and whatnot and we failed for 5 missions straightWe just ran out of reinforcements and lost before the thing showed any fucking signs of dying
Le bug living with le head blow smoove off and chasing you for 10+ seconds while cute in the real game is so fucking tiring in caves.

>>537831812learn to reflexively melee them and you'll be fine
>>537831210The regular 405 dmg light penetration Punisher shotgun will be your friend for a long time. It's so fast on the reload you can shoot a bug, load a single shell, shoot a bug, load a shell. Pair it with the medium penetration MG till you get better stuff. The rapid fire shotgun that lights enemies on fire (breaker incendiary) is for straight punk bitches that are playing a shooter, yet hate to aim.
>>537831812maybe shot them twice
>>537831035Do you ever wonder why your supply pack has less supplies when you pick it up after dying?That was me, and no, you didn't imagine it. Thanks for the supplies anon-chama.
>>537831210They pack a decent punch but the early ones will be light pen. You will need a support weapon that has at least medium pen to go with it like the Machine Gun.
>>537831791focus a single armor plate itll eventually crack showing AP2 flesh meaning all your AP5 hitting that spot now does 35% increased damage and you can even bring strong med/heavy pen to chew through it an HMG emplacement an theoretically dump 60k damage into a soft stomach of a Hive Lord.
>>537831579FULL
>>537831471>eagle, "seaf chan", or anthro bugsthose are all on-topic
>>537831791auto cannon mechs all 4 of us had itit was a oubbie lobby, 2 of them started damaging it while 2 did some objectives then we switched with our mechsone guy kept dropping eats and I cycled through 2 quasars when mech ammor ran outyou wanna shoot at at his belly and break the plates, after that you do full DMG to it
>>537831210regarding shotguns, you'll want to equip a choke and later the full choke on them all as soon as you are able to do so.
I really wish that melee would still shove armored bugs back even if it does no damage
>>537830649Way too slow. I find the plasma punisher way better for quick swaps and reloads on the burrowers. It also won't kill your teammates when killing the burrowers going after them.
>>537831471those are straight and normal and the other is one singular faggot's mental illness on display
>>537831791how? i've gone 5/5 with hive lords
>>537832040>>537832206So firing at the exposed mouth that showed red markers was a waste of time?
>>537831210halt has been treating me well on the hive world's, has good DMG and med pen and you can switch to stun rounds for stalkersshotties are only really useful Vs bugs
>>537832460m'yes
been wearing the salamander armor for the whole update and I was confused on why my teammates we're getting annihilated by the dragon roach
>>537832460its not a waste since thats nearly the same as exposing stomach but its way way harder to actually focus since it moves so much and is surrounded by level 9 armor that you get no damage through.
This update sucks performance wise
>>5378317911. Apparently, you can break open its guts shell(armor portion/segment closest to ground) to expose the flesh2. On top of the expendable ATs, bring a quasar or RR to maximize DPS uptime between EAT/C call ins3. Make the most out of Eagles such as strafing with hitting as much surface area as possible4. Don't pick the fight in the goddamn swamp or cave entrance nor should you ignore the horde coming in
>>537831210the default punisher is the best one
>>537831196Bro your ODST drip?
bold decision to create a bug heavy you can't just sprint from and have to spawnkill or else half the map is unplayable.
ETA to warbond?
>>537831210The Breaker is a good option but only being Light penetration with no stagger holds it back a lot. If you like the Punisher then the Cookout is the fire variant under the Flame warbond. Breaker incendiary is excellent and it's under the same warbond as the heavy penetration Senator revolver and the Jar Dominator which is a very good rifle.
>>537832592>>537832648Well shit I guess it makes sense that you should focus and drill through a single point until you get through but good fucking luck trying to ever coordinate that with a bunch of pubbies
>>5378328628 hours or so.
>>537832764You gain brouzouf.
>>537832764have it and wore it but it gets old after a while. I want to wear other armors and have different playstyles you know?
>>537832894I've done it twice with pubbies, everyone focused on the second to bottom plate.

Best gloom bug loadout isHaltUltimatumThermitesSupply packNormal GLRRAutocannon suitAny light armor you wantOrbitals, jets, and turrents really arent needed.Halt flechette is medium pen so you can kill the majority of the new bugs and stun is light pen for stalkers/big groups you can GL.None of the bugs rush you like predator strain so you dont really need anything elseRR and Autosuit are for hive lords and dragons. you can toss extra RRs in the open if you want to fight it and team reload swapping extra backpacks to blow them up.
>>537833771The best loadout is not playing gloom bugs at all

I don't have any of the meta warbonds so i'm just looting my teammates explosive/med pen primaries when they die.
The digger warriors wouldn't be so obnoxious if they didn't break your legs EVERY SINGLE HIT

>>537834384Try the grenade launcher, you can get it at level 5 for 6k requisition
>this kills the botfag
so digger warriors only emerge right on top of the host or is it the other way around?
I purchased all the warbonds with cold, hard cash.
wow it's dog shit now
>>537834610They emerge and attack on like the same frame so there's no way to avoid it if youre the host
>>537834610Yes, host is raped.
>>537834384just use the punisher
is the update good, or bad, hdg ??
>>537834610I have no idea, I ran host and not host and it's fine, but I bring supply pack and shield pack like a good goy.

>gater missionmeme shit
>>537835365except slugger is way harder to aim when bugs get in your face and does way less damage
>>537835158also it stuns chargers

>>537834781Yes
>>537835578low durability damage
>>537835158both slugger and punisher are better, punisher has massive stagger and damage against everything, if you fear the lobster bug just pull out your med pen secondary for a quick hs and return to punishing.slugger if youre lazy and just want a gun that does everything.halt gimmick is too clunky, 2 separate reloads, shared ammo pool and cant to anything particularly well, stun rounds deal no damage and ap rounds arent enough to grab it over the better shotguns

Even though the Coyote has only 10 durable, its durable DPS would still be higher than the LibPen due to its base damage being quite a bit higher.

>>537836674>I thought the bots would've converted their creators into more bots, though.Judging by how the Automatons are implied to be fully sapient despite being fully artificial robots, the Cyborgs might have already done full conversions in their quest to achieve "true equality"

The bots ARE bots but they use blood for many purposes like a bloody parody of our reliance on bug oil, but they do not use brains since this sci-fi setting could be advanced enough to give AI some sort of individual thinking (and they fucking love massacring humans)Also the Jin-Roh posting suits bots better, like Devastators.
>>537830830Can confirm. The only time I notice input lag is when the base framerate falls off a cliff into the 30s, and that's to be expected. The rest of the time it gives you a much smoother experience. I cap the in-game rate to 60 to save my graphics card from turning into a jet engine.
>>537836326>Recently got addicted to Ultrakill>Machines in that world are fueled by any and all animal blood, especially human blood, the player character included>Automatons have human blending processorsJust you wait until the next subfaction of bots are vampires in nature and hellbent on kidnapping citizens to fuel themselves and healing on melee kill.

Increase the fire rate on the defender and such SMGs. Feel free to alexus their damage, but fuck if they feel like shit shooting "rat tat tat" instead of "ratatatatat"
something like the crossbow or purifier is still preferable (but when isn't it desu) but light pen isn't THAT bad against these bugs honestlywarriors don't need to be shot in the head, there's still plenty of light pen fodder that a rounds-reload shotgun is handy against. just bring something explosive to make the digger bugs emerge. a suport weapon like a GL or AC, plasma pistol, etc

>>537837431>explosion on par with 500kg>zero demo forceAre Swedes retarded?
>>537841173I think burrower chargers are heavier armor than regular chargers just like how warriors are a rank up
>>537841173Rupture chargers invalidate any support weapon that doesn't have at least AP5.
>>537841095Maybe a hotfix for the crashing (not the ones you're experiencing, the ones nobody except their singular tester encountered once) otherwise absolutely not.

>>537840787Because zoomers aren't getting any so they obsess over it. Compared to back then when people were getting it on regularly
>>537839924Just make the bots based on Ultrakill since Helldivers pull from other IPs>Sword Machines replace berserkers: Updated model and hitbox, more slimmer but more vertical in size, speedy, nimble, and numerous as Predator Hunters, may throw their swords at you with good aim>Gutterman: Hulk variant with minigun, breakable shield(resists plenty), and sealed coffin on its back containing a comatose/almost dead human powering it>Guttertank: Another Hulk variant with a high-powered rocket launcher(Commando rockets but with bigger AOE) and a free hand that kills in 1 punch and lays mines across the field
>>537836903Charger butts have high durability so although they are low armor they still take longer to kill with most weapons. Weapons that have high durability damage can kill them quicker. You don’t really need to know until you are min maxing, then you can look at the wiki.
>>537839924That's basically the jeet brigade. Personally, i'd like to see it go the opposite direction, give me more heavy armor units. Bot turrets already fit on the same mounts as tanks, so just give me a bot light tank using the base turrets, then a bot mortar tank using the mortar emplacement, and then a bot AA tank using the AA turrets

>>537808880>>537809782>>537808490https://youtu.be/WcN-2l0ON9M?si=GT-LjIwmSvOSTQtvBro, here's the Homeworld clip that I was talking about in the last thread. The main speech starts at the 7 minute mark, but things build up to that point over the course of the mission.Some backstory: The alien forces in this clip, the Bentusi, are one of the oldest and most advanced species in the galaxy. Normally they take a stance of neutrality in galaxy politics and act as peaceful traders. But, when forced to defend themselves, they do have some of the most advanced weapons in the galaxy. The main plot of the game focuses around the "Beast" virus. An extremely virulent plague that can rapidly kill the crew of a ship, dissolve the crew into biomass, and then convert that biomass into bio-circuitry that interfaces with the ships systems and takes control of the ship. Depending on the size of the ship and the method of infection, they can take control of ships in the span of seconds to minutes. The infected ships operate as part of a hivemind that works as a collective to spread itself via means like missiles with viral warheads. This virus has been spreading like wildfire across the galaxy after your people inadvertently set it free. In this mission, your people theorize that the original infected ship is acting like a central mind for the beast and that destroying it may figuratively cutoff the beast's head and give the galaxy a fighting chance to fight back. You've sought out the Bentusi to ask for assistance with building a weapon to accomplish this task, but instead you find them preparing to flee the galaxy entirely rather than risk corruption in a conflict against the Beast.

You hear that /hdg/? Now all the game's problems would be solved if they listened only TO US instead.
Ok randos you win. You have successfully pissed me off with your incapability to have any sense of player skill that I will not play on a hive world again unless I have a group.

>>537844301The new bugs are not that hard, but you cannot solo them since they swarm you so you much. Trying to carry bad players is much more difficult since brutal, blunt dps is how you beat the new bugs and you cannot reasonably accomplish this alone.As for bots, intelligent, pragmatic, and skilled gameplay is heavily rewarded and so a solo player can much more easily hard carry.

>>537843457Here's a short little image that I think sort of illustrates where they lost the plot with Karen S'Jet (Fleet command).She was a character since the very beginning, but originally she was almost a footnote that was mainly mentioned in the historical backstory that was bundled with the game's manual (I've regretfully lost my copy over the years). In the game's story, they identified an ancient crashed starship in the depths of their planet's most hostile desert. They used this reverse engineered and barely understood technology to build their own mothership so that they could explore the galaxy and find a new home for their people. The ship's systems were too complex for them to adequately control, and the solution was an experimental and permanent surgery to integrate a human with the ship's systems so that they could act as the ship's beating heart. A living core that kept everything operating in unison. Karen was an important character, and a hero, but her story wasn't one of strength and empowerment. It was one of selfless sacrifice for the greater good of her people.In the conclusion of the first game's story, the mothership was critically damaged during the final battle for the Homeworld. Karen's integration into the mothership was supposed to be permanent. It was too dangerous to risk detaching her from the systems. But the damage to the Mothership forced everyone's hand and she was violently ripped from the ship's core. Miraculously her life was saved and she managed to set foot on the homeworld before the ending credits.In Cataclysm, she was mentioned in passing a few times but did not play a role in the story.In HW2, she was more gracefully integrated into the 2nd mothership and had a more central role.In the HW:remaster, her sorrowful appearance was replaced with one that had more "girl-boss" energy. Then they kept going in that direction with HW3.
>>537843475>>537843734Good, it should have 250k health like in the original game.
>>537844362No. I have playing videogames longer than you have been alive. Helldivers is not a complex game to play. You just need situational awareness and an understanding of what the mission goals are and how to accomplish them to be successful. Randos seem incapable of learning this.

>>537844927Why is the little red riding hood wearing Helldiver gear
>>537845121Depends, do you intend to keep shilling your gay little drawings that get no attention elsewhere?
>>537843205I feel like Cyborgs should either pilot mechs, or be so covered in super-tech that they're a special one man army unit. You could also have a squad of 4 Cyborgs that function like their own squad of Helldivers.

>>537848440The actual fix would be giving all medium and light infantry weak spots all over their body so that light pen could actually kill them with aim at any angle. Make the weak spots have a lot unarmored hp. Increase damage of light pen weapons to compensate. This way medium pen users don't get much benefit from these weak points.

>>537851738I don't think that's really in the gameAt best you can get something like what the bile titan has, a destructible part covering another part, though in the bile titan's case, their ass turns Medium after you deflate them.I know a couple of enemies have part variants that replace parts of their models as well, I know Factory Striders have this for their sides and heads, where I believe they do go down to Heavy in those spots.And then there IS durability reduction, where a part has a set durability, that decreases as it takes damage. I believe bile titan underbellies do this, starting at 100% durable, with a few different visual damage states at various break points. But, that's not a part taking no damage turning into one that does, that's just a part changing its durability ratio on the fly, and most light pen weapons having dogshit durability damage
>>537852193I exclusively host my own games, and my response is already warp pack.
>>537852051this thing is also the best weapon you can use to unflip the frvi don't run it as often as i should but i love that fucking thing, i only wish it had one or two more uncharged shots per reload
>>537852051Is Ultimatum the only non-stratagem item that can kill BT holes?

>>537851534the part where you told them to get out and use the recoilless BEFORE you said they blew off the arms of their mechs>>537849941>tell them they need something bigger to close it, someone has a recoilless, tell them to get out and use it>they just run me over and kill me>walk into mobs and blow the arms off of their mechs
>>537852193I simply won't.That seems too realistic, though, because it wouldn't make sense for the client to have networking inaccuracies. So please shut the fuck up.
>>537848440For a start they could get rid of the damage bonus you get for being above the armour level. Light should get the highest dps at close range. Light enemies should be common enough that you miss light weapons if people aren’t using any, the same way you miss a HMG in the group when a bunch of hulks crest the horizon.
>>537852401yes
>>537852304And it pretty much a 2nd primary for Hive world, it 1-2 shots both digger warriors and spewers. It also has a shitton of ammos too.Digger Warriors has far less HP than normal Warriors at 250. It pretty much 2 shots a group of diggers. This baby is a workhorse.
>>537852816the fact it can tank 3 different mechs full blasting for more than 5 seconds is crazy
>>537852696It's a penalty for being at the armor value, not a bonus for being over.Same difference most of the time, but it does contribute to a few light pen weapons like the spray & pray being extra dogshit, because all of the various sources leeching damage away from them.
>boot up for the first time since cave update>go to galaxy map>game instantly crashesCool
why the FUCK are Chargers still quiet as a FUCKING MOUSE
Getting enemies with more armor was the first step in the right direction. Next we need enemies with more range for sniperkino under fire. And a stealth+sniper warbond with some form of active camo.
Good morning, Helldiver. The galaxy awaits your- hm? Oh, this is Eravin, he'll be dropping with you once he's finished...Sweet Liberty, my testicles...
>>537853025Regardless they need to fix it or accept the light armoury doesn’t exist vs some factions.
>>537852583no bunkers, only one container poi, mostly the stuff is just laying on the ground. The best pois are the crashed pelicans, so look for stuff burning.

>>537852696>close range. Light enemies should be common enough that you miss light weapons if people aren’t using anyThis basic idea doesn't workMore enemies is not the solution for light pen. Weapons like the Eruptor, Purifier, and Crossbow will outperform any light weapon at clearing numbers. What light pen needs is actual damage, and things to deal that damage too. Ideally, the chaff enemies and medium enemies would swap armors. The mediums have more health, that medium pen lacks the damage to put down quickly. The chaff has armor, that medium can easily clear en masse, while light weapons struggle and need angles or careful aim to do it. Right now, the functional difference in damage between lights and mediums is almost irrelevant, because lights lose all damage advantage from armor reduction, bullet variance just making shots miss, and so on, meaning Lights are in the lose-lose of doing less damage, and struggling at dealing with groups of enemies especially on higher difficultyBut, armoring your lights feels "wrong" in terms of game feel, even if it would be the correct decision for balance.

This shit with the pelican isnt even new. It was fucked up a long time ago, then it was fixed for a while. But I swear like 2 months ago it started behaving weird again and now its back to clipping through the floor and completly bugging out like it used to.These devs are so fucking incompetent and retarded I cannot beleive it. They do like 80% of the work and make really cool looking shit but always fail to deliver on extremely important functionality.Like stratagems coming down in the right places, or players respawning in tbe right places, or the pelican dropping shit in the right places, it the extraction shuttle landing on the ground.

>>537848440Just make them do more durable damage. Durable damage is what's killing this game currently because it cucks so much of what we can use against enemies they should be good against.

>>537856045>Random spread in hellpod launchDude I thought this was just like a modifier thing or whatever but I noticed this too. My equipment lands nowhere near the beacon and sometimes the mech will get dropped in an entirely different spot
>>537855897it would be better than the eagle storm
>>537855997I unironically like that different sub-factions force you to change up your loadout, even a little
>>537856069Pacifier is and always has been neat. Spreadsheet troons don't know shit. Also try using it as a DMR bot side. Long range stun is great fun.

what's the stratagem for this?
>>537830830>AI generated frameshmm, no.

>>537856659nigga, they are UNDERGROUND until they pop up and do a frame perfect attacksuck arrowhead's dick more, holy shit
>>537856697what's your cpu nigger?the game is 80% CPU 20% GPU.
>hive lord are gonewhywtf is this
>>537856379Wrong. CPU shouldn't make any difference at all if you're already on the Zen3 or later plateau. HD2 doesn't utilize 3d v-cache. So an x3d CPU is wasted on it. If your CPU can boost 2-3 cores well you're fine. Remember that this shit runs just fine on an Xbox Series S. That is to say it's very hard to get CPU bottlenecked by HD2. Your frames are 100% on your GPU.
>>537856872you can shoot them while underground with a plethora of weapons gigabrain>>537856930they don't spawn in every mission
>>537857065They aren't spawning at all right now apparently.
>>537856760Ah, so it dies to medium pen. Glad to know we're at the point where literally we are expected to always have medium pen and light armor no longer fucking exists. What even is the point of armor at this point? Give every fucking foot soldier medium armor period because we should always, at all times, use medium pen weapons.Are you even listening to yourself? Again, there is zero difference between a hunter and a burrower. Why not just give all hunters medium armor now?
>>537839089Fake news
>>537856936maybe if you're solobut each human player added your cpu is stressed linearly more.in solo i get 120 constant on 1440 but in multiplayer i dip to 45-50 during drops/breaches because my cpu is dogshit
>>537855450I'm fine with content like this as long as the creator and anyone who downloads it agrees to give up any political rights.
>>537856543Watch and learn, cadet.
>>537842892But the driver cant even activate it without getting out of the seat? Its totally retarded
Me and my Helldiver bros walking into the cave to nuke some bugs (there's a breach in front of us)
>>537857158its called making a varied build chuddie
I warned light pen keks of their grim fate for months but do they ever listen?
>>537857342>Varied build>Use only medium pen weaponsk
>>537857249Yeah I learned why you shitters have pitifully low kill numbers
>>537854924As an aside I'm like 90% sure the Commando/Patriot rockets DO oneshot them to the head so thats pretty decent value if you bring the Patriot/aren't in a cave-heavy map.
>>537839052Anything explosive is a good start. Crossbow is good. Plasma is good.
hive worlds seem to be pretty good for sc farming but maybe i'm just getting lucky
>>537857382you can mix in some heavy pen ones if you're so inclined
Light penners are addicted to high ergonomics which is a shitter crutch stat. Learn to handle low ergo. Yes even on bugs. >b-but I dun wannaAre you sure because it looks like you're just plain unable to.

>>537856712ahh so you're the little faggot that keeps kicking players because they're on console, you're gay and a loser.
>>537857748How nice of the reigning winner to give it out
>>537857870No? What do you think "crossplay off" means?
>headshot 6 stonklers in a row with the talon as they chase me down outside their nest
>>537857667good for bots, decent for squiggers, pretty bad on bugs (i still see people bring it sometimes on d10)
There's no way these spawn rates are actually intended right? They seem to be close to triple that of equivalent difficulties on other planets, even on lower difficulties. Heavies and swarms just seem to constantly spawn back in as soon as you kill one.
I'm enjoying the dominator against bugs, not amazing or explosive but it's pretty reliable
>>537857667It's outrageous. Amazing damage per round, crazy fast fire rate for a semi auto, crazy velocity and subsequent high effective range. The only concern is the slow rounds reload, but that's a complete non issue if you're a siege ready user. Otherwise you just get used to it and reload during any free moment.
>>537857952They're similar to release spawns
>>537857952yeah it's fucking great
>>537857952seems about right for invading a terminid planet in its advanced stages of infestation
>haven't seen a hive lord all day
>>537857952They're still lower than what we used to get starting on d7. There are webms with hundreds of medium bugs and chargers on screen from that time. We kept telling you that you had it way too easy.
>>537858087I did earlier todayMaybe they finally disabled them, game doesn't crash as much now
>>537839052Cookout still solid>Staggers everything up to the Alpha broods>Fair ammo economy>Enough dmg to keep most things in check without burning through all your ammo

>>537857667Kino gun, siege ready makes it really shine. The stagger, medium pen and damage are fantastic. Rounds reload is a habit.
>>537858190fuggggg
>>537858228the light penetration doesn't hold it back?
>>537857472Oshaune's D1's have more pois than other worlds, so that up the chances. But they can be as inconsistent as any other world.

FUCK the community is getting skill checked by this expansion HARD. I have never seen people struggle so much.>bringing all the wrong shit, zero solution to heavies>can't find their way in caves>basically useless across the boardI am doing easy 7s and basically having to single handedly complete the mission underground because all the poos, chinks, and so on who play this game don't have the sense of direction or agency required to play this expansion.Not to mention the fact that cunts have become WAY too dependent on shit like 500kg bombs and orbital lasers as a means of dealing with heavies, so more than half the player base are now just getting brutalised by heavies because a RR, quasar or HMG is an unheard item to them. FUCK ME.I love this patch, it's top tier kino going into the caves and nuking hive lungs and nests. But damn it is really showing that most of the playerbase sucks at the game.
>>537858231Still 2/4 JOIN
>>537858673coming
>>537831035thanks for being a complete debit to the team and letting everyone else handle heavies for you, lazy faggot nigger

RECOILESS RIFLE ONE SHOTS DRAGONNIGGERS WITH A HEADSHOT(I didnt care where I was aiming at first but I randomly aimed at his head for once when we first dropped in )THANK YOU FOR THIS ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER!!!
>you can call emplacements on the top of the mobile oil rig and it actually stays up thereholy shit this is actually huge
>>537858862>trolling outside of /b/
>planting the flag in the hive lord makes it stay surfacedThat's fucking retarded but I guess it is pretty funny
>>537857952GOODLET THE E-710 RAIN
>>537858819EAT does too.spear 1-shot bodies them anywhere.
>>537857952Reminds me of meridia spawnratesIt's pretty fuckin' great, all we need now is the RAIN OF SHRIEKERS
every time I have to verify files I load another shell
>>537858453It's a boomstick. Despite the armor, it can knock stuff back back and will kill if you aim for the softer parts.
>>537858862You can also get reinforced on top of it without breaking itI assume this is to prevent griefing or keep retards from instantly failing the objective>>537859005it's real
>>537854802All the flametrowers do the same damage and armor pen, it's just a matter of ammo and range.
if verifying your files actually did something, why do you need to do it over and over again?
>easy d4 to test the gater>+400 kills
>>537859327>You can also get reinforced on top of it without breaking itWas this before or after "starting" the objective, cus I had a match the other day where a friend dropped on it and broke it immediately
>>537859536before
>>537859327Isn't it simply because it won't break from a few hellpods?
>>537847681>>537847615NTA but i didnt know the lung was destroyable without the PHB. I hit it with a Recoiless and an ultimatum then died so I assumed only a hellbomb could do it
Yes anon join the lobbies in here and call your HMG emplacement on top of the GATER everyone will thank you
>>537857952Probably because in the tight corridors of the caves patrols get funneled.
>>537859576Wack
>>537859691you literally see it working in the screenshoti suppose if there's anything to go by just drop it before you start the first drill sequence
Yes anon it's invulnerable before you start the first drill sequence trust me nothing bad will happen and no one will think you're a retard because you voided the mission in less than a minute and wasted everyone's time
>cant call down the auto turret onto the gatr because it will clip through and explode
>>537859875i slammed at least six pods into it without having it break so yes "virtually indestructible" sounds pretty accurate
>>537854802Once you get used to range, kiting and the schmoovement of diving the moment you catch on fire. You basically don't need to wear fire resistant armour and you can kill Chargers, BTs and Impalers without ATs.Just a reminder though, if you are using flame weapons then stick close to the host or BE THE HOST. Go farther than 50-100 meters from the host and you won't burn anything and will only be doing direct surface damage. This applies to gas too.>>537854960Correction: All Flamer weapons have the same damage, range and burn damage except Flamethrower stratagem doing tiiiiiiiiiiiiny bit more direct damage (which got recently nerfed) which is why Torcher is better now because the name of the game is Burn Damage since it scales with size but larger enemies also takes longer to burn (Bots partticularly takes even longer to get burned)Datamined Burn damage scalings for large targets:Hulk - Fire 1.5xBerserkers and Devastators - Fire 1.25xFactory Strider - Fire 2xCharger (all kinds) - Fire 1.5xImpaler and Bilet Titan - Fire 1.7xFleshmob - Fire 2xHarvester - Fire 1.5x
>>537858616Yes but Dragon fire needs to be nerfed, it's instakill and bullshit.
>>537857065>Plethora>Only explosive/aoe weaponsWhatever you say Alexus
>>537830304The devs genuinely fucking hate you for using anything thats not medium pen and the fucking big versions are frontally immune to heavy pen so autocannons, AMRs and HMGs need to hit their sides 1 billion times to kill 1 and also it can burrow away instantly so fun.Another real question is what retard thought war striders were fun after we already had to deal with infinite ragdolling from regular devastators and gunships. Seriously though the shots have to be AOE explosions that knock you off your feet in addition to the 30 grenades fired every 2 seconds? Its really that fucking needed?
>>537860247>>537860247>>537860247>>537860247>>537860247
It probably works as long as no one gets inside firstSo if you're not there first don't even try
>>537846914Now you've gone and made me remember this track.https://youtu.be/DId6yX-LytM?si=gUL-MfySjOYWDiNE
>>537860140why are you not wearing Acid resist armor?why are you not divingwhy are you not prestimmingwhy are you not paying attention skill issue. retard. lower the difficulty.
>>537860286huh, a guy was posting videos here killing the burrower chargers with like 5-6 shots from he AMR
>>537830845Ap5 in the front. Was surprised to see this too. Would be interesting to see if it's weaker in the sides than a behemoth
>>537860736swede spagetthi code must be getting me then because they take over an entire AMR mag for me.
>>537836823Against what, fucking dev torsos?
>>5378579527.5% resistance rate
>>537856096When was the updates arrow mod posted, I missed it. I'm not going to use the botnet
>>537857667Had a LOT of success with it on bugs. Used it with flamethrower and that stagger damage is very juicy. I'd bring slugger but it's really nice having a solid slug of damage at great distances.Fun to hip fire too.Makes me wanna bring constitution.
Railcannon honest to God feels good to bring for dragon roaches, what the fuck. It's like my fourth slot is useless so might as well have something that might guarantee a kill on that nigger.
>>537830845AP5 on the front. They do seem to die faster when you shoot them in the ass though.
>>537858592t. crutcher
>>537861730It's always been a great stratagem, just bogged down by Arrowhead's habit of pointlessly limiting cool stuff. If they sliced the cooldown in half, railcannon would jump to top5 red stratagems with ease. Hell even with the inefficient CD people pick it a lot.
