The Best Edition>Previous>>538146582>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 contested planets, each with a different biome, completing as many objectives as possible in a procedurally generated level while constrained by a time limit. With enough successful missions, a planet can be defended or liberated, and the player base must combine their efforts as much as possible to Liberate™ the galaxy.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.

shut up
New Mech soon retards!
I read the /helldiver/ subreddit story about the redditor who adopts dying cats with cats AIDS because the cats are dirty sluts who fuck other cats in the streets. His AIDS cat was dying watching him play Helldivers 2.
This is my thread now. And you have very little time remaining in it.
>>538192267People keep saying this gun is an AK but am I wrong for thinking it looks more like an stg-44?
>>538192450go back and stop trying so hard
>>538192575yes
>>538192552>POV: you are a female helldiver captured by the Banished
>>538192450i glanced over it, i didnt see a reason to pay mind to a freak.
>>538192575AKs look like StG 44s
Is there a guide or tutorial for modding Helldivers 2 on steam deck? [blog]I haven't been a PC gamer in 18 years where you just dragged and dropped files and now I got a steam deck but I am 100% clueless[/blog]
Signalis crossover when??
>>538192761>when slavic chimpanzees copy the human invention
Justice won't be AP4 and that's okay. 300 damage will make up for it.
>>538192761i can also see some hk g3 inspiration (sexiest gun on the planet)
Bot campaign and more mech buffs soon!
>>538178715>all 3 missions of the OP are double dragon/wurm seedGGs
>>538193260why?
>-1 stim
>>538192976>(sexiest gun on the planet)Excuse me that isn't the right arm of the free world
>>538192892AP2, 125 damage. Take it or leave it.
What would be the optimal loadout to solo the Hive Lord in a lobby where everyone else is mostly running around and dying? Besides strafing run.
>>538192575It's neither. It's an AR-18 based abomination, with charging handle separate from the ejection port (SCAR, Grot), clearly ACR-inspired stock, not to mention the ARX-160 like fat ass foregrip.There are parts on it that are AK-like, namely the AK-12 magazine and also the AK-12 like front of the foregrip.Also, it has partial ambidextrous controls and it looks like you can switch it to left handed, which is a nice detail.
>>538193260They want that booty.
>>538193380>Casually walks past him>Whiffs his dumb slash>Gets shot in the buttWhat was his plan
>>538193403Give it 600-1000 RPM (depending on if you can get extended magazines or if it's just 20 rounders) and we have a deal.
Stalkers fucking LEAVE

>>538178715GGs
>>538193260What's the point of playing the game like this?
>>538192420AHHHHHHHHHHH NOOOOO DON'T BREED ME BUG-SAMA I DIDN'T MEAN ANYTHING BY TRYING TO EXTERMINATE YOU NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>538193902If you were straight white male you would know.
>>538178715gg, i dont know if i hate dragons or worms more but i do know that im glad diggers are done soon
>>538193996I am, that's why I don't get the point of watching this shit while playing instead of getting your dick wet Before playing.
>>538193397Why am I hearing Rhodesians never die?
Just got the Silo.What am I in for?
>>538193397So bullshit we didn't have SE partisans blowing the fuck out of faggot squids during the invasion
>>538193047>we give the DSS a really big gun to counter it>they have a space battle>we don't participate>DSS destroyed and we have to build another

>>538194265ORC but worse
>>538194265Needing to take an MG sentry just to defend it so basically you are -2 strategem slots.
>>538193792You dont need to be full health all the time, arm injuries mostly dont matter since bugs get close anyway, and in heavy armor they take 3/4 hits to kill you anyway so having half HP is fineSave your stim for when you see you are about to get cornered or jumped by multiple bugs and pre-stim - this way you will have saved a stim for the initial damage and the damage you took just now so the mission plays out as if you had 1 extra sim rather than -1 stim.Once you play more you can get a feel for when you will take what damage, assuming heavy armor:>rupture warriors3/4 hits>Alpha Commanders2/3 hits>Spewershard to ascertain, but about of 2/3s of continuous damage>Rupture spewer ball spitTickle damage in heavy armor with acid resist, can be ignored unless on 1/4 health>stalkers yeah these hurt, 2 hits but usually first hit ragdolls and throws you away so you can save it if you think you can kill it at the same time as it hits you, or have incendiary ammo/dot weapon>roachesNot fully sure here yetUsually if full HP and you dive out of the way you can survive two attacks before dying
>>538192575you're right, it definitely shares more in common with it from a distance, though i think the only thing inspired by it is probably the muzzle and front sight if anything at allit's all just noguns redditors that can only comprehend 3 guns like the aykay47, assault rifle-15, and bear it fiftycal who think it's an AK
>>538194512>assuming heavy armorlol
lobby?
>>538194447>powercrept Dilligence CSGive it irons and I'm sold.
>>538194775but I am le tired...
>>538194768Yeah I know i knowMost people probably see a mission in confined spaces against enemies with AOE and pick light armor anyway, get 1 shot(as you do in light armor, the point of light armor is not to get hit) and complain about difficulty
>>538194775Make it an I join
>>538194857Well stop that.
>>538194869good morning, sar
>>538194902You don't get one shot in light armor but you do use 30 stims per mission.
>>538194869Drove a little closer to #3 & #4 I love it here
>>538194837>re-checks DCS capacityOh yeah I guess it is. Fuck. Fine give it DCS damage, increased durable damage. I just want a heavy semi auto battle rifle with a slow full auto option for emergencies. Adjudicator but able to 1-tap heads.
>>538194992So its a bit easier than i thought, thanks for telling me as I genuinely never use it, only heavy and maybe the medium killzone armor lol
>>538194869>>538195057What are those arrows?
>>538192679Go back where? To your mom's pussy? Oooh
>>538193397>right arm of the free worldThe only time I get to post this
>>538195057>>538194869What difficulty do you run on sc farming Oshaune?
>>538195217Oh newfren, they're the SC arrow mod that lets you steal money from the impoverished Scams Yourmoney
>>538195251D1. Don't ignore the maps where 85% of it is covered in caves if you check the edges you'll find lots of POI like that.
>>538193380Nah
>>538195248We say Zimbabwe now, don't we?
>>538193047Are the bots really building a swigger star?Oh the humanity!!
>>538195197It's only easy if you aren't host or you have a supply pack. If you are the host in light armor and you don't have a supply pack or explosive primary you basically can't play the game on hive worlds unless somebody is with you.
Are hive lords supposed to be rare? I've encountered them and the dragon roach in EVERY mission so far.
>there is an SSSD/Hellbomb/Portable Hellbomb objective item>there is absolutely zero reason to call it down at the moment>in fact, calling it down right now would be detrimental>some random quickplay motherfucker slams the code in as quick as he can and chucks it at absolutely nothing because he has no fucking clue what it's forI WILL FUCKING END YOUDO IT AGAIN, DO IT ONE MORE TIME, I SWEAR TO GOD
>>538195329Should I get that?
>>538195568Anon... it's a coop game, someone is supposed to be with you, 3 other guys in fact
>dodging bot tanks and hiding behind rubble piles as rocket artillery rains down in a rainstormyeah, bot + city = kino
>>538195797No, it's cheating and will get you banned.
The laugh emote is back in the store
>kill bugs around me>pull up EAT to aim at the flying raperoach>bug jumps out of the sand to clap my cheeksThe fuck is this? This shit happened all the time with the voteless. Like they spawn as soon as you turn your back. Also the fucking invisible corpses are still a thing and i get stuck on them all the time. I FUCKING hate Sweden!
>>538193752perish
>>538195797honestly farming on lv1 with the warp pack the super credit mod doesn't really save you much time. It takes so little time to hit all the POI's
>>538195814>implying I'm going to trust 3 heavy armor brawny divers in a dark cave when I'm in light armor and don't have satellite serviceA pack of Stalkers would make me feel safer actually.
>>538196040Digger bugs also rape your legs if you get hit once, forcing a stim no matter your current health You like?
I would say E-711 acquisition + bots pushing their shit in on the south-western front = illuminate gets new units.They're trouncing the shit of squiddivers right now so the second best incentive to upgrade their armies would be an enemy just as brutal and relentless as helldivers
>>538196285saar your ODST legendary warbond?
>>538196215What is going on with her nose and nostril in this image.
>>538196391It's medium armor, I won't be having it! Also, I need desert stormer, acclimated, or fire resist to handle dragon turks without going insane.
>>538196293Yeah. I think we'll get bots in caves and some other minor updates through October and November. Then the Illuminate Cult added in December as the next title update, 1 year after Omens of Tyranny.
>>538194296With how many stashes of liberator ammo there are everywhere, we probably should have posses of pissed off yokels patrolling rural missions.
AH should've made it so the hive lard can eat you and you can blow it up from the inside
>>538196681They need to go back and fucking update bot cities goddamn it. Their occupied cities look like shit compared to the other two factions. And if we get bots in caves that's so fucking boring. We need bot super fortresses to invade not fucking mines.
>>538196442You ever watched Harry Potter?
>>538192575It's literally AK-12
>>538196856I'm uncertain whether to want bot cities to be completely razen blocks with barely no cover besides the newly-built automaton buildings or if they should add effigies of fallen divers and/or push the blood sacrifice shit they have all over their cities
>>538197105No it isn't, the magazine is AK-12 inspired but the rest is not.
>>538197105AI picture, dumbass, look at the letters. AI cant spell "Kalashnicoff"
>Get democratic demolition as first pack because of recommendationsDid I get memed on lads?
>>538197428should've got the new onesolo silo is breaking the game
>>538197253It clearly says "Kalashnikov" on the placard and the Cyrillic looks to be right too. What are you talking about?
>>538197253>>538197562is this really what you do with your day
>bots get nerfed>bots get nerfed>bots get nerfed>bots get nerfed>illuminate get nerfed>bots get nerfed>bugs suddenly become pubbie player killing GODS What happened? Pic completely unrelated and outdated
The Speargun-Railgun-AMR trifecta
Trying to figure computer builds in the future, I know this game is heavily CPU-bound so an AM5 chipset Ryzen 7 seems on the docket. Anyone run any AMD graphics cards, have any issues with this game?
I just quit out of HL rounds anymore. Not worth an instant 50% reduction on respawns with the other bullshit going on.
>haha coyote is so op!!>locked into dogshit 1x sights until level 18I HATE AH
>>538197754After looking at the picture more closely you're right anon, Im sorry I mispoke. I have this phobia of AI because I lost my GF this year to a fucking chatbot. So I almost have some form of PTSD. It's fucked me up
>>538197816the game was solved, the new additions shook the boat
>Reinforcing in caves will have the diver go to the nearest entrance available>Except when it doesn't
>>538197105>>538197241>>538197253As I see it, it's a mongrelized bastard child of a G36 and an AK-12.
>>538197793but you HAVE heard of me
Digger bugs the most unfun enemy theyve ever added in the game if youre hosting.
Gentlemen, the booster meta hasn't shifted for a year. What are your booster ideas that don't overshadow or overperform against the big 4? Sidegrades, people, sidegrades.
>>538197924more like>doesn't get a 2x, the ideal AR scope type>gets a 10x for no fucking reason>scrubs slap the 10x on because high unlock level = better
>>538197949>I lost my GF this year to a fucking chatbotYou dodged a bullet. Imagine if you married some bitch that'd legit prefer a chatbot over a human being.
The name 'Solo Silo' implies the existence of a 'Multi Silo'...
>>538197949>Lost GF to a chatbotIf a chatbot was all it took for the relationship to sour, chances are you probably dodged a bullet. YGMI bwo
>>538197241Clearly the entre front, mag and general layout is AK inspired. Ejection port is more like SCAR's or CZ's and the stock is weird
>Shoot expendable napalm at charger>Doesnt dieOkay so whats the point?
>>538197986>Spawn on top of hive>Have to run 2 minutes to the nearest opening
>>538198182AI got a little better at arranging words and retards started relationships with it and got mental breakdowns. I think this is a new low for normies.
>>538197949>anon literally got cuckolded by lines of codethis is why women shouldn't have rights
>>538198259It can oneshot FleshmobsThat's two fleshmobs every 2 minutes!If only there weren't at least 4 fleshmobs in every patrol!
>>538198315>I think this is a new low for normies.Just wait until you see the kids that grow up with no social skills because they only ever interacted with AIs growing up.

Crossover guns should be better than base guns but worse than fully upgraded guns
>>538198729then yeah idkit kinda works if you have height on a breach but it's still jank. fun tho

>>538198396It might be an improvement over cocomelon ipad gen alphas. I'd imagine a kid could learn some decent grammar, vocabulary and get general ideas from some supervised AI chatting. Parents who let an ipad raise their child should be killed.
>>538198259>it kills everything else around itu would've found out if u thought about it for more than a second
>>538198619It's perfectly fine for D1-6 where the xbox newbies who would buy it are playing
>>538198250>general layoutHoly shit dude. You don't even have to admit that you are wrong, just leave and stop grasping at straws that don't even exist.Clearly Coyote looks like a fucking M27 IAR because the general layout is the same.

>>538197428>thermals are the perfect anti-charger weapon>more grenades for bugs holes>explosion metaNah
>>538199826What would you even do with Halo weapons when they're all boring pseudo realistic bullshit?
>>538199826>>They casually dump the most OP weapon since the OG slugger in the very next, cheaper warbondCoyote isn't even that good ironically. It's decent on base factions but mid on every sub faction.Eg pred, digger, gloom, jump jets
>>538197428Gaylo weapons always sucked and that whole warbond was bait for ODST helmets
>>538200052Why would it be good against base bots but not jeets, which are easier than normal bots? Also gloom bugs do nothing but blow up their friends.
>>538197428No, because the crossbow shits all over hive worlds. The Eruptor shits all over squids, and the Adjudicator shits all over bots.
>>538197949Your mistake was consorting with 3DPDs to begin with.>>538198168Could also go for niches instead of overall sidegrades. Like increased vehicle ammo, or increased emplacement/turret ammo.Something neat (but unlikely and probably difficult to balance) might be stackable SEAF boosters, which redirect some SEAF forces into the area, causing them to spawn like in a megacity. Small squads that are few and far between at first, then upward to megacity levels and maybe a bit beyond that at 3/4 boosters equipped.Or they could just hurry up and give us an SEAF squad stratagem.
>>538200052Cooks the hell out of gloom bugs
>>538200153The ODST Pistol is a straight upgrade to the Peacemaker in basically every possible way.
>>538197949>I have this phobia of AI because I lost my GF this year to a fucking chatbot.Please be joking.
>>538200308Apparently the SEAF squaddies have been added to the files, or they're at least mentioned by name. How long until release is a secret only God knows.
>>538200308Just give us a stratagem with a 2:30 minute cooldown that calls down a pelican and drops off a SEAF squad already Sweden
>drop hellpod on the back of the wormI wish this were actually a useful strategy
>>538199970We still need a desert eagle secondary and the OG magnum from halo 1 would have fit that role perfectlyThe BR55 would have been a neat addition with forced burst fire and high damage with mid pen and a 2x scope, or at least it would have been more unique than a worse penetratorAn anti-material rifle that is actually worth using perhaps?
Every day that passes, light penetration weapons become more and more useless.
>>538199362Spawn rates are absolutely turned up on the hive world, at D10 it can feel almost impossible to clear a flag objective because the moment you get it down to the last couple bugs three different patrols roll up and and a bug breach usually follows and then the next set of patrols show up.Also Dragon spawns seem to be just fucked up in general, like multiple showing up at difficulties Bile Titans don't even spawn in on.
>>538200504I only use the senator so I don't know what that means
>>538200262Because jeets are an explosive check, while base bots are super slow. Gloom bugs are also weak to explosives and light pen. Medium pen is over kill for them

>>538200523>>538200562Yeah, I know. They've been in there for ages, but this is sw*den we're talking about. We still don't have the fucking APC. Though I suspect the SEAF might end up being for an objective rather than a regular stratagem.>>538200564I wish I could bait the worm into swallowing me while I have a primed hellbomb. That'd be pure kino.
I sure love the new vehicle objective, nothing better than watching it get instantly destroyed by the worm.

>>538200901I should have specified they've been re-added, not just "added." My mistake. Personally, while I don't think it would be meta at all, I would definitely host lobbies just to force everyone to bring it.It would also be hilarious if spawning all of them at once depleted the AI budget.

They should make event capes like the creek cape only available if your current diver actually served in the event and survived. As in, you successfully extracted during the event and have had 0 deaths since, and as soon as you die you lose the cape permanently. Do this because it would be funny to have a giant pile of capes that no one is allowed to use.

Is recoil that big of a deal?Why the fuck Coyote doesnt have 2x sights????
Close quarters combat makes you realize how buggy this game is. I've blown myself up with the xbow like 100 times by now because gaps between walls or corpses aren't actually gapsPlus getting stuck in terrain all the time

>>538203807Recoil is either manageable or not manageable and if it's the latter you'll need an armor passive or customization to make it usable for (you). So it depends on the experience of the diver.Also they couldn't give the coyote 2x because they needed space in the customization menu for the 10x scope. You like?

>>538203972the corpse hitbox often doesn't move with the corpse model after death, so you have these invisible walls all over the place where something died and then got blown away by a subsequent explosion. It's a huge problem for stuff like chargers and bile titans, because their hitbox is huge, and the corpse decay rate is so slow. Add the fact that enemies aren't affected by these invisible walls and it's probably the most annoying thing that I face in every game.
>>538204090I feel like the slav accidentally made a good platform and they've been milking it for all its worth to this day. Some of their newer iterations can't compete with their predecessors, even. An assault rifle with an easy-to-manufacture, powerful bullet that stays strong past 300m. That gets caked in mud for 5 months and fires after a bit of solvent and a hard whack on the ground? A gun with so few moving parts that an African child can disassemble, reassemble, and maintain it blindfolded?Fucking genius.

>>538204569>Add the fact that enemies aren't affected by these invisible wallsOne of the main gripes I have with the digger bugs at the moment is the way that their hit box collision doesn't seem to matter when they are under ground. They seem to tunnel all piled up in a clown car stack sometimes.

>>538206379A 50 demo force silo would render the portable hellbomb totally uselsess (outside of caves obviously)It's okay the way it is. Used it today and it's very fun.This said, look at picrel:does it mean that on a direct hit the full damage is 1500+2500 and the damage is divided between the "kinetic impact" and the actual explosion?
Im getting really fucking tired of the endless cheap shots by digger bugs. I had the warp pack and teleported away from one and the fucking thing literally teleported to me to hit me. Yes, I know I can take explosives but even thats fucking annoying. Sometimes when you force them out they burrow right the fuck back in.

Also has utility charging into heavy nests/spore lung chambers.>HMGIts purpose is to magdump the lord's exposed flesh at maximum ROF. Try to avoid fully emptying the mag so that you can combat reload rather than needing to rack the charging handle. Can provide light AT work, but it's subpar at that job and is the reason that I'm running thermite. If it weren't for the lord, I'd prefer a quasar and incendiary grenades. Napkin math says one HMG magazine is ~10% of the lord's HP.>Supply packFeeds everything. If need be, once the inner flesh is exposed, you should be able to carry WAY more than your fair share of the lord's HP via consecutive HMG magdumps>Eagle Strafing runningBig damage to the hive lord. You'll use a mix of this while waiting for the mech to be delivered, and also you'll call it in before unloading the HMG.On its surface, the weakpoints of the build are slightly bellow average ability to deal with massed heavies. It also doesn't have a means to directly close BT holes, so you'll need to bait a charger or BT to close it for you. It may be prudent to leave strafing at home and bring portable hellbomb for deployment prior to pushing the heavy nest.
I am not having fun. New bugs are fucking bullshit. Every pub game is a complete shitshow disaster. But I will not stop until I master it.

They have some retarded parity condition for all PSNigger games where they're not allowed to be better on other platforms, so they deliberately hold back gaming in general.
>>538208239don't worry anon you'll kill your first hive lord one day or another
One big issue with discussing enemy difficulty with this game is that a lot of situations with enemies are prone to being super fucking buggy like the host issues going onOn paper I think the new bugs are very well designed but add swigger incompetence to the mix and the line gets blurry real fast

>>538208404My guess is this. The duplicated files was some trick in the PS3 era where it actually helped with load times. But, since PS5 has an SSD, that technique isnt needed because that trick is useless on SSDs. However, since Arrowhead are retarded swedes with brain damage from inhaling sustromming fumes, they think theres enough people with gaming PCs using enough HDDs to justify keeping this outdated technique.

>>538208163>>538208516Just use orbital gatling barrage on top, it deals the same damage of 3 strafing runs to a hivelord.
>>538208093I don't think so. A sizable number of the gating barrage's rounds are going to hit the ground around the lord, and also the higher angle of attack are going to lead to more of them landing on the higher segments of the lord. We want to concentrate as much firepower in one spot to preferably just destroy one armor plate. The strafing run will concentrate more of its fire on the plates close to the ground.Another concern is that gatling fires for a decent length of time, and the lord can move about. Strafing is more likely to land while the lord remains in one place. I also prefer the overall out of combat utility of strafing run. One strafe will delete an impaler. Preferably get the impaler's attention with a few talon shots to bait it to unbutton.Gatling is certainly up there and far superior to most other reds for the fight, but I think strafing is the best red to bring. We really only want to waste time shooting the armor plates long enough to destroy one plate. The plates only transfer 10% damage to the main HP pool, so we want to start magdumping exposed flesh ASAP. I don't like bringing hellbombs for this since the exposed flesh is IMMUNE to explosives, so the bombs only help crack the plates. Cuckchair and AC mech are the other strats that really let us concentrate fire on one plate, but I think the cuckchair is critically at risk of being destroyed by digger bugs. The AC mech is a bit safer, and also has utility within the caves.

>>538208474why do you even play helldivers
>>5382091902 spots left, get in here faggots
>>538209203Strafing is still better. It's not about raw damage from the red strats since the plates only transfer 10% of the damage to the main pool. What you want to do is concentrate fire and brake a plate to expose the inner flesh. The angle of attack from gatling is going to vary depending on the orientation of the lord relative to the super destroyer. So rather than strafing consistently hitting the lower front belly that's facing the party, the gattling barrage might predominately waste time pounding the rear plates on the lord's back. Also you're not plating that gattling beacon inside of the lord's belly. At best it will be on the ground right outside, so at least 50% of the gattling barrage is going to go wide and impact the ground around the lord. It's much easier to hit the lord with the majority of the rounds from a strafing run. I think strafing is still the clear winner even with the negative modifier.
>>538209208Strafing run will still kill impalers, tentacles down or not. Crazy how the Swede made a good all-round stratagem that's neither over nor underpowered.
literally just turn down the difficulty

>>538209449Why would I play Helldivers 2 to kill hive lords?
>>538209635Based
>>538209581It can. I've seen them survive with them up. I'm pretty sure your margin for error is greater if the tentacles are deployed. The shell impact concentration is higher at the start of the run than at the end. If think if you nail the impaler directly with the strafing run then there is a high enough concentration of explosive AOE's to pop it's weakpoint. But if you're to far away to plant the beacon directly on him, then his head can get shredded by the direct impact rounds if he's tentacles are deployed. I still think it's worth poking him with the talon if only to make sure that he stands still.
>>538209550Fuck I'm not reading that because I already know you went on a pointless tangent.I already know strafing is better, I'm just saying it if they need more damage that gatling barrage is the second best option. Next time try not mentally deficient.

How long does it take to kill a hive lord I've unloaded like 4 cannon emplacements on this thing and I've barely broken one of its shells

>>538210334>projection from the guy who won't let people fight hivelordsYou can still fight them after I kick you. The game doesnt boot you back to the ship anymore. Im doing you a favor.

What kind of difficulty progression makes sense for a new player to go with? I'm not too sure when I should progress past level 1 stuff.
>>538211032I never said it's supposed to be MH, I'm not even the anon you were talking with.I'm just pointing out that killing hivelords ("Why would I play HD2 to kill hivelords?"-(You)) is a retarded question only a tourist would ask.

>>538192267HD2 is my favorite game but this is the first time I’m kind of pissed off with all this new cave shit. Am I alone? It’s so shitty and half baked. I would like a cave objective but having the whole map being these random corridors fucking blows. Do not like. This sucks.
>>538211209full
>Truck missionI know immediately this will be a failure
>>538211168Okay, so why are you chiming in and responding to the comments where the argument was "its like monster hunter tho!"
>>538211167It's piss easy until diff 7I think they made unlocking stratagems easier but if you want to be useful as a clueless noob get the supply pack, EATs, and whatever else you got and help your team instead of chasing numbers
>>538211167Literally just up the difficulty when you win a operation or two until you feel like it's too hard
>>538211386at this point it should be mandatory to get someone to drive it and the other 3 to kite anything away from it
hdg will defend this
>>538211357A lot of people dislike the caves, having stratagem disabled in them is already eh, but the amount of inconsistency and bugginess with stuff getting stuck on the edges in the areas where you are supposed to be able to use them makes it even worse
>>538210494>why would i kill the alien boss in the alien killing gamengmi
>>538210793>everyone who argues with me is a trannyI accept your concession>>538211064You have my permission to cry about it.
>>538211167Assuming you are pubbing, always host your own lobbies and when you can finish most missions without dying to un-friendly fire you should move up the difficulty. Or if you are joining /hdg/ just join our D10s and be useless, we'll think its funny and you'll maybe learn something, maybe.
>>538211537hey would you mind staying there?
>>538211347anon, they're mentally ill, they don't think like sane adults.
>>538210816I know it isn't in this video but anything helldiver 1 just makes me think of the absolutely apocalyptic melty people would have if the rumbler got added.I still want my fucking satchel charges though
>>538211357Biggest issue for me is just the cramped environment, but using the Halt as a dedicated stun gun makes things more bearable. It's good for making some breathing room for your support weapon (grenade launcher for me) or just stunning some bugs that are in your way while you reposition. I haven't had too much trouble with navigating the layouts, aside from the gaps and crevices that look like you can squeeze through but can't actually.

Nobody but me knows how to play this fucking game properly. Shoot i had a 150 aggressively try to get me to quit the current game I am in due to predator strain bugs. I was already at extract, then he called me a "cocky x-box douche". Next dive he then led me directly to a stalker lair, pretending it was something else, and quit my game. Another mission I extracted from by myself. I could have kicked him anytime, but i thought this was all LOVE here. At first he seemed drunk, but then i realized i was dealing with a complete turd from a hive lords a$$. I’ve met several who are super salty about accidental friendly fire. I had one guy on an illuminate run who ran DIRECTLY into my 500kg bomb who then proceeded to kill me at the shuttle right at the end before evac saying “karmas a bitch” like bro, friendly fire happens, it wasn’t intentional, also you intentionally lost 20 samples. The game is designed with friendly fire in mind. ODST_Spectre not only sucks, but is also highly sensitive and treats any accidental friendly fire as a personal attack. Then they’ll find you when they respawn and apologize calmly for their own blunder while offering you a hug. Just kidding! They’ll mag dump you, then mag dump your dead body while fumbling their mic down their throat and telling you how bad you are, just before kicking you. Again, welcome to the community! o7
>>538212486>collecting samples>side objectivesYou’re getting kicked
>>538212792Yeah because you soft onions bitch gay boy think only about "fighting" it. I only think about KILLING it. I know you are fond of worms because of that ruptured asshole of yours nests them and reminds of your uncle at home, but you are not it, kid-touched
If you fight the hivelords, you are brown.
>>538211574idc about Strats disabled, but the gameplay loop is>run in>maybe complete something maybe not>gas out>run back out to rearm>Strats are buggy asf The worst of it is you can’t even type the strat and throw it to a spot where it can come down, you’re locked out of typing except in one glitchy area.I like the above ground missions, theyr fine. The entire map having a lazy roof over endless corridors blows. I’m fighting squid rn fuck this
I had a guy. That I came to help btw . Low level on these hell bug planets .I land . I throw down for my strats . My guard dog.My exosuit .Here comes dummy out of left field the moment it lands And takes it . I was on planet for 40 seconds tops .Asked him to drop it .no answer and runs around in circles like it's a joke . So I had to teach a lesson and also get my necessary equipment back .I took my equipment back by force . I explained why I did what I did. Why I did it . To no response .I immediately reinforced him directly on top of where he was and his other belongings . Because hey I'm still a team player . Just don't touch my things .I restart calling down other things . This time a hell bomb .This MF runs over and takes that too. Second time stealing .Now I know it's intentional. I forcefully took it back again. Like what kind of shit is this . Not funny I'm here to help you dumb noobs. You do not even know how to use half that equipment correctly.Finnaly his friend team kills me, hes dumb too if hes killing teammates without realizing whats occuring . Listening to voice chat and texxt chat . Whatever.and ejects me from the game . I suppose his friend was crying to him as well.So let this be a learning lesson. Touch other helldivers gear . Senator bullet to the head . Helldivers don't want to do it . But we want to stay alive . We bring stategems to keep us alive and finish the mission . Cannot finish the mission when lvl 8's treat me as just as a personal equipment resource bringerSo now they both are reported.Article 1. Stealing resources. Article 2. Team killing .Second guy killed me for no reason whatsoever . He's reported too.Rules is what separates us from the animals.
If you do ANYTHING other than host lobbies with the SOS active, kill randoms as they join, then kick them; you’re playing the game wrong

>>538214656538214245 is merely my observation of what you dumb niggers keep doing
People here get really mad they get kicked because it hurts their ego it seems. Apparently in their minds everyone needs to put up with them and listen to how they should play the game but will never ever EVER host their own lobby. Curious.
>>538215067If I suddenly get kicked mid-mission with randos, I assume it's a connection issue if it doesn't totally boot me but just leaves me there to finish up on my own. This game is incredibly finicky enough for me to buy that rather than really think some people at lower difficulties are that petty over samples.

>>538206540gg
>>538216614Bot meta seems pretty solved right now, until they do something like give us a jammer-proof 50 demo force tool (again). The only thing that isn't concrete is what stratagem weapon you want to use to delete the handful of enemies that don't get completely fucked on by rapid-fire and/or low-recoil light pen primaries.

>>538216825it takes 5 minutes to kill him, good players know this and don't find him to be an insurmountable challenge. If you think he is, you are not a good player.
Think they'll ever do an expansion or just keep things to purely updates/major releases for 2?
Laser Sentry needs a buffRocket Sentry gets pick ALOT and probably will get nerfedHMG Enp is in need of a revamp in comparison to how effective AT Emp isFlame Sentry doesn't need a buff, it needs to be fixed but that isn't gonna happen so who even knows
>>538216584Utterly silly. >I WILL teamkill youYeah I know you will, that's why you brought the tesla tower and mortar instead of useful sentries like the MG or the autocannon
The dragonroach should not have so much armor they would need hollow bones to fly around that much
>>538217160>balance changeswhen last did we even get one, I would take a fucking nerf at this point over just not seeing fucking any
What's the most effective weapon or strategam for the dragons?
>>538217032>find him to be an insurmountable challengeNo one said thisntaI won't be replyingStay madI accept your concession
>>538217231Narrowhead doesn't care about realism unless it's a preface to worsen the players' gaming experience.
I want an MG emplacement stratagem, or an MG battlement
>>538215067i just assume it's because one of their friends got online. i never act malicious in the game so if i get kicked it's at very random times
>>538217303RR, EAT, anything that kills Bile Titans kills Dragons.If you have skill issues with hitting the head try the ORC but that's still a meme.
>>538217231>exoskeleton
>>538217304cope, seethe, I will kick you and I will kill the hive lord solo, I've literally already done it
>>538217231So what you're saying is, according to all known laws of aviation, there is no way that a dragon roach should be able to fly?
>>538217382They should give the grenadier battlement two mounted stalwarts (1 clip each). Maybe someone thinks this is two much but I have literally never seen anyone bring it so why not try
>>538217231The Meganeuropsis permiana was a 100cm flying armored bug that existed on earth only when the percentage of oxygen was about 10% higher than today.We can assume that in the gloom, the the atmosphere is totally perfect to let bugs like this exist
>>538217032>it takes 5 minutes to kill him, good players know this and don't find him to be an insurmountable challenge.I would hesitate to call this "good" players, since the hive lord from an objective standpoint is a waste of time, and time is everyone's most valuable resource. Good players wont waste time. That five minutes can be spent doing literally anything else more productive, both in game and real life..
>>538217382What will be your tfw you learn that machine gun battlements have been in the files since release?
>only people playing are niggers>2 take dedicated anti dragon>take GL to cover bases>none of them capable of taking out the dragons effectively>i kill the same amount as them with EATit's like if i don't pick RR it's not used effectively, but then no one picks GL
>>538217160Rocket sentry is not that OP because it gets picked so much its a popular pick because its convenient, its like the recoiless rifle, it gets picked tons because its dead simple to use and the sentry lets people focuses on the smaller shit first.
>>538217756People think they're entitled to win on the hardest difficulties. They don't want to have to balance their loadout or balance their squad, they just want to be able to kill everything with their favorite gun.The game had a lot of connection issues and bugs at launch, and while many have been fixed - there are certainly some remaining & people have every right to not like that.When the game first came out it was admittedly a lot easier as well, the base shotgun was a powerhouse, autocannon was god-tier, etc. After many balance passes (some nerfs, some buffs) a lot of people got butthurt. Coupled with the Sony debacle that cut off a lot of players from other countries & there's just a lot of toxicity in the community now.Personally, I have over 600 hours in the game and still love it despite the rough edges that pop up sometimes. I play at least every other day as it's part of my workout now (I ride my stationary bike and do missions).500 hours and jumping on every chance to play it when I'm not at work or in engineering nightschool. Joined a really cool HD2 discord server and have no trouble finding people with a mic this way. The game shines so much when you can strategize together. And I hope AH continues balancing to enforce teamwork, I wouldn't wanna be able to do everything by myself. This is the first game I ever encountered that doesn't get boring for me after 100 hours, love it to death.Hellwhiners. Just ignore them. This game is a marvel of the modern age.If they bitch about difficulty, it's 100% a skill issue, period. This game teaches harsh lessons on a high curve the bigger your difficulty number. If they refuse to learn, that's on them.

>>538217670Are you retarded or what? Playing a videogame is inherently "wasting time">i don't want to "waste time" on THIS side objective, let's go waste time on that other SIDE OBJECTIVEYou just butthurt you need to actually learn some basic things and have some basic adaptation because probably your head hurts if you even think about that
>>538215654So youre fighting it. Ergo, youre wasting everyones time.
>>538201971>only there was a key that made your character leap away from enemies.Confirmed never played new bugs

>>538217670>from an objective standpointObjectively he is worth 222 XP, and that's before d10 modifier is applied. My cave missions end with like 2800 XP.>a waste of time, and time is everyone's most valuable resource. Good players wont waste timeNot only are you wrong, but you seem to have fundamentally forgotten that killing a hive lord is fun, and your goal while engaging in entertainment should be having fun, not whatever you're doing.
The datamined APC Stratagem has been re-added to the game's files, and in a much more complete state.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gX6jFoWnAlM
I will call the people you see here elite and skilled issue divers. They never admit there are problems with bugs and balance. They blindly support the shit state and accused people who complained are due to skill issues. The funny thing is that the CEO will tweet that they admit that they are fucked up at balances few days later. Those skilled elite divers are so woke. Number doesn't lie. Player base is plumping. Another thing is that AH is clearly like making empty promises. They said they will not take away players fun in the past yet they keep taking away peoples fun. AH was good at one patch, reducing the cooling of precision strike. It was an inferior version railcannon strike. Once you have the rail cannon strike, you never use it. This game should not have an inferior version of a stratagem. All stratagems should be viable instead of rotting in the shelf. Take the primary as an example, the fire shotgun is still the best weapon after the patch in the bug mission. It is just too good at dealing with small and light targets therefore the usage rate is so high that AH continuously nerfs it to the ground. Meanwhile, there was a 5 shot primary sniper rifle that did aoe explosive damage with shards that can deal with heavy and clear small clustered small targets. It was another loved choice, AH said it is too strong and nerf it to the ground and no one uses it again. 5 shots, low ammo count, slow fire rate , they are drawbacks but AH ignores them. In short, the AH balance team sucks and likes to make empty promises. if you fight the worm then you're done, you're out of the squad for good. I will never let you into one of my games again, and believe me, I WILL remember your name bitch.
>>538216584"Oh nooo. What will I do now that I don't have to play a retard that brings mortar and tesla sentries to a mission?" Nigger, you're literally doing them a favor making them not have to play with your ass anymore.

You guys sure do a lot of yapping.
>>538218076oh boy i can't wait for my single use APC that can't even withstand one charger attack
>>538218076>StalwartsDOA
Would you accept a Grinder themed warbond or would you call that too wacky?
>>538218029Yeah but that's an Heavy MG emplacementI wants me a MEDIUM MG emplacement, because in this game I get off on using what feels like precisely the minimum amount of force to take down any particular enemy.
>the new digger bugs are just medium pen gear check
I'm level 4When do I get to the giant monsters
>>538217806I don't think I really disagree, I'm just being realistic considering how AH has acted in the past. Its about a 15% pick rate on bugs and squids and nearly a third for bots. I haven't actually looked into it but it wouldn't surprise me if its the most picked nonsupport strat.

>>538218290>Grindr themed warbondWe're not getting this until Eravin gets into the creator program
this fucking thing but medium pen
>>538218303Anytime you want.
>>538218303join a lobby here
>>538218076>inb4 they only give the Autocannon turret 100 rounds like the oil truck>inb4 the thing become a worthless piece of dog shit once the AC turret are emptyNahhhhhh, FRV is still better unless they replace the Stalwarts with MMGs, hell replace them with the HMG
>>538218046>but you seem to have fundamentally forgotten that killing a hive lord is fun,Actually its not, because its just an HP sponge with a simple break mechanic. Granted thats more than anything else in the game, its just tedium personified. Dont tell me whats fun. Over half active players in the game right now are NOT fighting on Oshaune, and there is a reason for that.Futhermore, i only play solo or quickjoin on randoms, and its far more time efficient in both instance to not engage him.
>>538218084the rail cannon sucks though? Even before any precision strike buffs it was worthless because it had like 2x the cooldown and still does for 1 shot that may or may not even kill anything.Also the eruptor was literally the most hilariously broken thing in the entire game, a primary thats explosive and heavy armor pen that also came with a bug where the shrapnel dealt 10K damage and 1 shot anything it hit was not balanced lol and the fact its still the most used primary in like every front speaks volumes.>>538218292Thats retarded as fuck because the entire point of an emplacement is to mount a bigger gun, though if it was per say 2 MMGs or 4 stalwarts strapped together I'd agree to that.>>538218334Yeah they'll probably nerf it anyways
>>538217925>When the game first came out it was admittedly a lot easierAs a returning player, I think this is arguably the easiest I've ever seen the game (I'm setting aside the dragonroach and hive tyrant for the moment as I doubt they will stay as is). The only time I think it might have been easier was during the heyday of the incel breaker where all 3 randos would be running it and would literally trivialize d9 (or was it only 8 then?). The only think that it couldn't insta-delete was titans and you had 4 strats to dedicate to that.
This is my first time approaching /hdg/Has it always been this bad? I understand that the people who like the game are playing it, but it seems that everyone is just here crying about something.It's worse than fucking war thunder general here it seems, and that's a very tall thing to reach
P"I swear I'm underwater"3
>>538218472and another light emplacement that looks like this (with peacemakers)
>been playing this whole time>haven't tried caves or new bugs yet>just can't get excited for an update to a faction I already hated
>>538217935"concessionfag" is on every board I ever go to. Its just the new "u mad?" or "dilate"
>>538218624>Has it always been this bad?Yeah.
>>538218519I literally just killed the hive lord with randos, sorry to hear life is harder for you but you will never be me ;)
>>538218519Why are you playing HD then? If killing big bugs isnt fun, you could do something else with your time other than avoiding wurms and complaining on a democratic management forum.
>>538218220Most people itt don't actually play this game.
>>538218624kill yourself ashley
>>538218430>???
>>538218624We have actual Indians in the thread wanting everything to be nerfed and the enemies should 1 shot you by farting at you
>>538217231it isnt even hard to kill stfu, you can kill it with 2-3 RR shots if you keep missing head or 1 shot if you actually get a headshot
>>538218790damn.... i understand why...you are literally the same people...
>>538218624Just jump on a lobby and move on. Most of the trannys on here dont even play.
>>538218046>killing a hive lord is funIs supposed to be fun*It taking forever is not fun. You're gonna sperg out but its the ttruth. There is a middle ground between the current and the extreme strawman you are going to assign to me that I won't be engaging with
>>538218624>Has it always been this bad?Helldivers threads are always shit, yeah. Even on /v/ they're full of the same ragebait, samefagging, and attention whoring you find here.
>>538218624>It's worse than fucking war thunder generalnothing can be worse than russian, pay to win, freemium trash and the people who play itget the fuck out
>>538218624this thread is not even remotely as bad as the niggercancer that is /wtg/ post smo which is crazy considering how the thread is also fucking dead
>>538218187I have no need for SC, everything is bought and I can already buy whatever warbonds they shit out until the servers shut off. I have no need for samples or medals currently, since I already ground out the latest warbond. Every mission I join I beeline the primaries and then tag along until the team decides to extract (sometime quitting if they are wasting my time). Ive also quit playing at all yesterday as there is nothing to earn thats worthwhile and the quickjoins wore thin. Oshaune was a nice experience for a few hours, but its done for me. On to other games until they figure out whats next.
>>538218430Why do you talk about him so much?
>>538218829Honestly? I think it is because of how Terminid Heavies are set up paired with a rather odd hole in our armamant.Firstly, it is painfully obvious at this point that a very large section of the player base will not touch Bots with a 10 foot pole. Secondly, the hole in our support weapon options. . We have exactly 1 option at 5 armor pen, but it's an uncharged Railgun shot which has terrible Durable Damage, so it isn't well suited for killing heavies. So... we have a hole. We *should* have several more AP 5 weapons whose uptime land somewhere between the 4 AP and 6 AP options AND have decent Durable Damage, but we just don't. For some reason we don't even have any damage grenades at 5 AP or above except Thermite which... well... is very bugged.Thirdly, on the Bug front everything north of a Charger has the vast majority of its body covered in level 5 armor, meaning the relatively high uptime weapons at 4 AP can't touch them. The much lower uptime dedicated AT weapons can... but Behemoths, Impalers, and Bile Titans all have enough HP behind their armor than anything short of a Spear can't 1 shot them, and all except the Arc Thrower (there's other problems there) have somewhat long reloads/cooldowns/scramble to pick up the next EAT so they aren't efficient enough to handle 2 shot kills and the Commando which can rapid fire isn't a 2 shot kill. On higher difficulties, there's also kind of too many of them to be handled by Red Stratagems unless you go like... all in on them. They do all have at least 1 low armor weak point, but those "weak points" all have 1000+ HP and incredibly high durability so killing them via those spots is... tedious at best. So where does that leave the game for the majority of players? Well, it leaves it in a spot where they have to deal with a horde full of enemies that don't really have great answers. That leads to a lot of players complaining that all our guns feel underpowered and useless.
>>538217925>>538218601Agreed this game got way easier because players have constantly gotten stronger and enemies weaker, the few months after launch you were fucked if you were not running meta gear now you can basically clear D10 with anything. Seriously people do not remember when the RR would literally only blow off the leg of a charger when you hit them directly into their side granted if you were using some shit like a railgun, breaker, 500kgs and personal shields the game became fucking easy but most other gear sucked dick and the games balance is honestly in a much better state even if it is easier.
>>538218972>It taking forevereagle strafing on two teammates or more, 5 minutes or less
>>538218756grim>>538218840fucking pajeets, we have them too. But honestly our biggest problem right now is the chink hivemind. >>538218924yeah i figured out this was the case, ty i'll try it

If you are to the point that you are not engaging the game and just going through the motions, why not find something else and re-engage after a break? You sound like you're burned out on Helldivers.
>>538219254full
>>538219424who needs it when you got slugger
>>538219130>on two teammates or moreSee, here's your issue: People aren't talking about your premade group. They are talking about the randos in QP that range from mouthbreathers to decent.Additionally, I'd contend that if you have 3+ players acting in coordination/comms and taking strategized loadouts that it taking 5 mins (with perfect play, I assume) is still too long. I get that you disagree but I don't think I'm being unreasonable and given the discourse I don't think my position is radical.
>>538218624The update is causing a lot of pain in the community. Between the file size bloat, glitches, hive lords, dragonroaches, etc, people are up in arms.

>>538221847how's it feel to know that you will never be a woman. You have no womb, you have no ovaries, you have no eggs. You are a homosexual man twisted by drugs and surgery into a crude mockery of nature’s perfection.All the “validation” you get is two-faced and half-hearted. Behind your back people mock you. Your parents are disgusted and ashamed of you, your “friends” laugh at your ghoulish appearance behind closed doors.Men are utterly repulsed by you. Thousands of years of evolution have allowed men to sniff out frauds with incredible efficiency. Even trannies who “pass” look uncanny and unnatural to a man. Your bone structure is a dead giveaway. And even if you manage to get a drunk guy home with you, he’ll turn tail and bolt the second he gets a whiff of your diseased, infected axe wound.You will never be happy. You wrench out a fake smile every single morning and tell yourself it’s going to be ok, but deep inside you feel the depression creeping up like a weed, ready to crush you under the unbearable weight.Eventually it’ll be too much to bear – you’ll buy a rope, tie a noose, put it around your neck, and plunge into the cold abyss. Your parents will find you, heartbroken but relieved that they no longer have to live with the unbearable shame and disappointment. They’ll bury you with a headstone marked with your birth name, and every passerby for the rest of eternity will know a man is buried there. Your body will decay and go back to the dust, and all that will remain of your legacy is a skeleton that is unmistakably male.This is your fate. This is what you chose. There is no turning back.

this debate already got stale man, go find something else
>>538223351Roman themed warbond one day...
>>538221847>v-v-v-irgin!!!how many times do you need to be told that trying (poorly) to mimic women doesn't work and will never make you a woman?
>>538223614this isn’t a debate>You have been kicked from the lobby
So what's the best loadout for hive world? I'm running supply pack / gl / ac mech / rocket turret + scorcher / gl pistol / gas gren but I still find myself struggle if they decide to spam roaches at us and my mech is on cooldown
>Dragon>strafing runs me>fair dodge>stops immediately after and 180s me with more breath with no up time>dragons spawn with no up time and will strafe from behind with no audible till the fire's already on your screentotal swede death
I finally have enough for the piss warbond, is it worth it?
>>538223706I'm favoring Crossbow + SOCOM, Orbital Railcannon, Supply Pack, Heavy Machinegun, and Emancipator Exosuit.
>>538223842I think the piss grenade is the best one in the game
They need an entire suite of SEAF support stratagems>SEAF light infantry dropped off via pelican>call in SEAF mechanized infantry in an APC with slightly better gear and weapons>SEAF tank support>etc
i using the shield backpack to catch stratagem balls, a way to avoid bouncy sentry balls or even outright let them deploy were they normally shouldnt?
>>538223372>I-I don't need to prove myself>screenshotted it to prove himselflol
>>538223842naw, new fremen warbond is basically gas bond but better. No need to bug gas warbond until they buff sterilizer
>>538223927It'd be cool if SEAF were in more than city maps
>>538223927I'd love to see more SEAF. But I can see that tank support blowing me up cause a melee enemy was near me. Also the tank will be made of fucking wet paper and die too quickly. APC crew would probably just end up running people over.
>>538224057You asked for proof.
>>538223536oh no! you've put me into my own lobby where nothing has changed and I now have piles of free equipment for the taking! aaaaiiieeee!
>>538213461ggz, i got booty blasted so hardhttps://files.catbox.moe/665lo6.mp4
>>538222103just click the button anon?
>>538224219and you said you don't feel the need to prove yourself, but that screenshot is dated 2 days ago and you held onto it to prove yourself
>crossbow>stalwart>gas dogThis has actually made the hive worlds way easier for only problem really is the dragons and hive lords
>>538223937you're my favorite poster, ESL-chanI never understand what you are trying to say but it's so cute
>>538223351>one day they'll add an armor set with a wolf pelt over the shoulders and helmetbased
>>538224413>You constantly seek to constantly "prove" yourself instead of letting merit speak for you. I did it once to prove it to myself.You do it multiple times to prove it to other people.We are not the same.
>>538223842I think it's the best one.
bros how are cunts running trivial for 3 hours to get 1 warbondi can't fucking do it. i have hit this same brick wall every time i've come back. medal capped, 90% of the sample shit done. just need to complete my literally hours of CBT to continue getting things in the game or pay the chump tax of what might now be $100+ to unlock the rest of the content. and there are people who are able to mentally somehow handle picking these credits up 10 at a time for hours doing nothing else. what the fuck
>>538224423>stalwart>the "light pen is just fine, guys, really, I'm using this as my primary" support weapon>rupture + roach modifierslol, lmao even
>After all this time they still haven't added any new points of interest that give you bonuses for the mission like the radar, artillery and sam site doWheres my mech bay, drone storage, vehicle hanger and seaf bunker?
>>538224621>doing nothing elsePut on a lecture from the oriental institute and learn some assyriology or something.>3 hours to get 1 warbondYou could probably pick up the pace on that.
>>538223706I'm running a meme WW1 trencher build>Punisher shotgun>Ultimatum>Gas grenade>Flamethrower>Supply pack>Mech suit>Orbital railcannon strike>Inflammable armor
>>538224589I kill hive lords for fun. You killed one two days ago just to make sure you could say you did. We are definitely not the same.
>>538224423>stalwartIt would be kino for cave cqc but I found the light pen to be too frustrating against the rupture warriors. If you aren't using PP armor, though, the MMG/HMG might not cut it for handling.
Am I the only person in the ENTIRE FUCKING WORLD who knows how to pick a proper landing zone? FUCK OFF with the "here? here? how about here?" spam you stupid bitch. I am looking at the enemy concentrations, the objectives, and planning the best route for the mission, while also considering corrolaries and back up plans should the resistance push us from the path. I will pick the LZ carefully and according, and I will draw on the map the path you will take in this mission. If that's too much for you then get the fuck out and go play Amogus
>>538224621Get warp pack and a friend
>>538224589>>538224798Both of you are faggots.
>>538223927>get overwhelmed>call in SEAF>run away>loot their bodies later for spare changeThanks Helldivers! You're the heroes of Earth!
>>538224621You are unironically better off doordashing for the weekend and paypigging instead.
>>538224804either hot drop into a mega nest/fortress or you're a giant PUUUSSSSSYYYYY
>>538224804>No ability to draw on the map when choosing where to land
>>538224798You kill hive lords to use as glue to maintain your fragile and crumbling ego so it doesnt collapse in upon itselfI kill a Hive Lord to add another trophy to my collection.We are not the same.
>>538224804Didn't read all that. I WILL drop us at the start of the Factory Strider Convoy.
>>538224804Wherever I drop, that's where 3 shrieker nests are. It's my superpower.
>>538224360Then why ever have any burstfire mode for any gun?
>>538224976cringe, you're a fucking loser and this isn't the first time someone has told you so
>>538224976>>538225120now kiss
>>538225095good point
>>538225120>The chihuahua thinks the lion cares about his opinion
>>538223797>quick solo run to see the new content>dragon shows up while I'm outside>get flame strafed>run perpendicular and dive>still get hit>it stops and hovers>stim through fire breath>dive to put out flames>second one does the same thing>slowly stim+dive+sprinting to the nearest rock or cave for cover>run out of stims>die>auto reinforce puts me way out in the open again>dragon immediately starts strafing again>can't make it to cover in time>repeat four times>abandon missionIt's aids.
>>538224804We practice what we call "chest hair drops", where we drop on the hottest part of the map we can see.
>>538225095mostly to give it a pseudo auto fire when they don't wanna give a gun automatic. Could be some mil-tism or unironic balance reasons.
>>538224741One thing that I seethe about is how rare that it is to find support equipment in the field. There are pois at the lower difficulties that don't appear at higher ones. There are things like faulty hellpods that will contain stratagem weapons and backpacks. I would love to be able to drop in without support equipment and just scavenge gear as I play.There are still some ways to get weapons like mgs or arc throwers, but it's a sorry state of affairs. The pois that can spawn them are rarer at higher difficulties, and the spawn pool is heavily diluted by rare sample spawns. This heavily nerfs the viability of hoping to drop in without a support weapon and just going native. The only time that I really think that's a serious consideration is squid super city defense when you want an mmg.
>>538224804I like the /hdg/ method of dropping on the mega bases or nests from the get go.Why? All you stratagems are up when you land, you take out a key enemy base and move on.Skill issue fag.
He's still having a melty over hive lords?
The lion rapes the small dog when it barks.
>>538224741>no new missions>barely any new enemies>no new POIs>just city n cave stufflike don't get me wrong it's really impressive what they added for environments. But that's kinda all it is just visually impressive.
>>538225314Dropping directly on the bot fortresses actually makes them easier because you don't have to run through open ground in range of the bunker turrets to get there.
>>538223706Its a bit limiting but I'm in love with >M90S(halo shotgun)>Stim pistol/Senator>Thermites>Strafing Run(to be changed)>RR/Quasar>Emancipator>Gatling
>make people use support weapons instead of brainlessly dropping artillery and turrets in to do all of the work>people still refuse to do something as simple as bring a grenade launcher and recoilless and stick together
>>538211209swedish code fucked up the lobby get back in heresteam://joinlobby/553850/109775243134144093/76561198089573526
get your super slurpees here:>>538225627>>538225627>>538225627
>>538225047Every time
>>538225514Imagine engaging with an enemy that angers you.You let it control you. The Hive Lord is your master.I refuse to engage with it. I am free from its influence.We are not the same.
>>538224804You should drop into the mega nest/fortress.With the mega nest you can see the bt hole from the air and either crush it with your spawn pod or get into position to nuke it ASAP. With the fortress the defensive battlements are arrayed facing outwards. It is easier to pick it apart from within than to fight your way up its slopes.
>>538225546I like that you can complete the transmission secondary before you are out of the hellpod, so I always aim for those if I see them.
>>538225802I try landing on the opposite side of the map and try to cross map them with an EAT.
>>538225758It doesn't make me upset?Are you projecting right now anon?
>>538225269The fact the airburst launcher does nothing to it pisses me offadd a reason to actually take it
>>538226474wouldn't it shred its wings?
>>538224667>>538224803The crossbow has been killing the rupture warriors and spewers for me that they’ve been nearly a non issue and I don’t want to bring the other machine guns because they’re stationary reloads. Also I actually know how to aim skill issue
>>538227032i tried in 2 missionsI can't tell if they just aren't registering, or even when aimed above it they fall too muchLike I legit shot a whole backpack at it once and got no hit markers besides the maybe the first
>>538226474Airburst launchers is for tight spaces, not for aerial targets. Autocannon flak is for aerial targets.
I'm more annoyed by meganests having BT hole that's only closable by Ultimatum/Portable Hellbomb.Seriously what the fuck? Demoforce40 tax when the options are so limited?
>>538227389oh it's godly in caveseasy 30 kills a launch
>>538219254GG
>>538227271>I actually know how to aim skill issueCan you hit the rupture warrior weakspots from the front? I haven't experimented too much so it might be easier than I think. I've just found medium pen to be more convenient (especially when i don't have much room to run in a circle around them) to deal with the few that get past the grenade launcher.
>>538228007Just bring the Libdog+GL and run around in light armor (extra pad) if you think the diggabugs are annoying.
>>538225328Except there are guns with both automatic and burstfire modes, like the Reprimand.Also, burstfire in this game sucks. it's just a limited auto instead of always firing off the ful amount.
Speaking of burst, I still don't get what the Dominator's burst is for since its recoil is hot trash even with VG.
I dont like fighting on oshaune
nerf burrow warriors to light pen
>when you die whatever is your first equipped stratagem is triggered on your corpse, doesn't matter if it's on cooldown it still goes offArmor passive or booster?
>>538218624Most generals are usually this bad, im just grateful theres a fair bit of game discussion going on because its usually 100% all discord drama, ritualposting, and coombait in other generals. Fucking /wpsg/ for example is a case study alone on the amount of mental illness that goes on down there.
>>538222228>Last second crashFUCKIt was a good run. Clean OP otherwise, good shit.
>>538230975Yeah those bots got raped hard. GG boys.Definitly going to join more lobbies from /hdg/I liked the missle silo
>>538230159>portable hellbomb>whenever you die the super destroyer sends down a consolation nuke with a note attached that says "please press the big red button"
>>538218624Dont act like your general is better
>>538231246No need for the r word
>>538206624Daily reminder that Helldivers is ~20GB on Xbox. Xboxchads stay winning.
>>538235089ain't gonna stop the coding from exploding.
>>538230732It's so obvious that you're desperate for my cock lol if we met I'd have you bent over in under an hour lmao and folded up like laundry
>>538227431Bile titans corpses destroy it
>>538228007Naw not reliably. Anyone that says hit the tail is baiting or retarded. Unless you're killing diggers attacking allies you're not gonna be using light pen.
