But what did the patch do? Edition

previous: >>539265814

>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 squiggers to spread Manager Democracy™. Players wage war on contested planets and their patience, each with a different biome, completing as many objectives as possible in a procedurally generated level while constrained by a time limit and their colleagues. With Joel's blessing, a planet can be defended or liberated, and the player is based if they combine their efforts as much as possible to Liberate™ the galaxy.

>WHAT ABOUT THE FIRST HELLDIVERS GAME?
Released in 2015 for PC, PS3/4 and PS Vita, the original HELLDIVERS is better game, being a shared screen top-down shooter in the same setting. Its mechanics were based primarily on Arrowhead's first game, Magicka.

Random sounds are now too loud.
>>
Is the bot headshot damage multiplier still a thing
>>
>>539319652
If too many audio triggers fire off when you're in the caves (gunfire, bug sounds, etc.) the game just crashes outright because whatever they did, the engine can't handle it now. Even happens when the audio goes mute from the other bug because it's still making calls to play it.
That's a complete utter lie but you probably thought that was true for a second with how shit these devs are
>>
>>539319830
They don't know how to fix the game. 20k 24 hour peak by the end of next month

That is quite literally the one and only way to make Arrowhead get off their fucking asses.
Every other fiasco ended up with the playerbase review bombing and leaving en masse, which got Arrowhead to listen because it impacts their financials and their reputation.
Just sitting around crying and playing the game through angry tears won't do shit, actually dumping the game will.
>>
>>539321973
Runs fine on my machine.
It's a UE5 game.
UE5 is literally built on temporal effects.
If you turn off the TAA/FSR/DLSS it'll run like shit.
Most people with performance issues have either not updated their drivers in years, hate temporal systems for some reason, or have wildly miss-spec'd PCs.

I get ~70FPS in HD2.
I get ~120FPS in BL4.

At least the Epoch can actually kill shit. There's a huge gap between 'amazing gun that turns the game into easy mode' and useless junk like the Pummeler or pic rel.

>>539323332
Interestingly: 2k has access to steam hardware info, and most performance negative reviews are attempting to run the game at 4k on ~4060 class GPUs with DLSS off at very high settings or have 1+ year old drivers.
Randy is a retard, but that's where his "run the game at 1440" tweet came from.

Between the two? Better ergo. Now you have an automatic rifle that can also take on heavies like the Eruptor can.

>>539323813
Flying war striders with exactly the same stats as regular war striders but with a bigger AoE and cyborg miners who work exactly like the diggers.
>>
>>539322456
Not being a chef makes people blame dumb shit and fall for memes about why it is or isn't good though. They don't actually understand shit, they just repeat other people. Like all the bitching about UE5. Even though some people have made good games with it that run and look good, most corpo devs these days are lazy and fuck it up, then retards blame the engine instead of people being lazy and unskilled in using it.
>>
enjoying the new filler mo saars? :)
>>
>>539323906
The Variable is the most interesting light pen weapon and it doesn't need medium pen/it would honestly just cheapen it. Just increase the ergos. It's already clumsy switching all the settings on its own.

Small indie company with a tight budget. Please understand.

Grenades are usually enough, I never bothered bringing explosive weapons against them. Using the Eruptor against bugs sucks anyway because you can't use it when they're close to you or anyone else

funnily enough that whatever missions you do while defending a planet, city missions count toward the main contribution of the planet even though the city hasn't been liberated yet. meanwhile playing in cities on a hostile planet doesn't even contribute to the main liberation. it's either everyone play on cities or normal maps during liberation campaigns.
