Previous thread: >>539850517>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 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.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.

>>539922565I used to play it fine too on my macbook before the pervious update and that's not even officially supported hardware
>>539922658You can say that for 80% of primaries, secondaries, throwables and stratagems. They forgot about ship modules too
>>539922243>blitzer pumps after you shoot while thrower has a charge up>5 arcs total instead of 3 total>primary slot instead of support slot

>>539922918don't manipulate my feelings like that
And so consoomcels learned that 90% of all warbonds and their contents are mostly irrelevant sidegrades nobody should spend real money for
>>539922658It's the most fun and satisfying light-pen primary. But I don't think console players can do the 1-button mode switch thing, and a lot of PC players either don't know how to do it or can't be fucking bothered with it. So once new toy syndrome wore off they all stopped using it because without 1-button switching it's too clunky to use.
>tfw this game is actually more fun with randoms cause your friend just rages the whole time on mic when randoms are mute

>>539923175I know that feel. A friend just got it on Xbox and when we play together, all he does is get mad and talk about politics. I don't even respond to it but he just keeps going for hours anyway
>>539923226Everyone knelt out of respect
In my 900+ hours I've seen team-reloads happen organically maybe 10 times

>>539923082Fire mode selection and RPM needs to also show up on the UI next to ammo left in the mag, as well as persist when you respawn. I'm so fucking tired of being unable to tell when I've got stun or lethal rounds loaded with the Halt and having to set the Tendie's RPM everytime I come out of the hellpod.

Those player numbers are looking extremely ACK lads, Sony can't be happy with this failed xbox launch
>how to check your HD2 opinion privilege:go to your armory on the ship, scroll to career tab, check in-mission timehigher hours give you all the lower hours privileges as well.>you have under 100 hours:you are allowed to have subjective opinions and frame them as such>you have 100-500 hours:you are allowed to talk about loadouts and builds>you have 500-750 hours:you are allowed to talk about enemy design>you have 750-1000 hours:you are allowed to talk about weapon and stratagem balance>you have more than 1000 hours:you are allowed to make tier lists
>>539927278>96 years
>>539927362this is a choice as far as I'm concernedSony should've assigned another team to work on updates and made AH focus on their next game since that's all they want to do anyways
>>539926684>superlative
>>539927278Thats withdrawn in 96 years. Not liberated.
>>539927373anyone who has over 400 hours, which is twice my play time, is a fucking freak. The game isn't worth playing that much
The meta in this game has always been incredibly narrow. I consider it a fact that, if you don't mind repetition, you never need to pick anything other than Coyote and RR ever again. Now there are some items that have their niche aside from the popular picks but the majority of all primaries, stratagems, secondaries, and throwables add very little value to the game. There's just directionless mindless balancing compounded by nonexistent planning. Being a non-starter pretty much became the default for warbond items nowadays. So do not feel bad about finding a loadout that works for you and autistically sticking with it for a thousand missions while ignoring the rest. We all do that anyway if we're being honest.
>>539926684your reasons are shit and you cant defend them
>>539927373>160 hours>you can insult this posterFUCK YOU@@@!!!
How the FUCK does this game use more CPU idle on the super destroyer than a late game Stellaris?!?!
>>539927745>FUCK YOU@@@!!!That's just like your opinion, man.
>>539927802Cap the framerate, otherwise it just tops out your hardware. I keep mine at 144
>>539927912I said CPU, not GPU
>>539927504If they don't want their massive live service success to crumble into dust (again) then Sony had better replace Arrowhead
>>539927912Does literally nothing btw
>>539927802>buy a better CPU>set the CPU mode in windows power & energy settings to performance>remove the power saving mode from your CPU in BIOSeach of these will give you +15 FPS ingame as well
>>539927969>>539928149Old hardware? Here's mine, right now. About half
>>539927974put yourself in snoy's shoesthey blew $4B on Bungie and Firewalkthey're not ready to bankroll shit for something that might be good
>>539927974I get what you are saying and I don't even necessarily disagree with you but you are looking at this completely backwards. From Sony's perspective all of their liveservice has flopped (and HARD). The only one that has had moderate success has been Helldivers. And, to be clear, this is also the one they meddled the least in. So the very last thing they are going to do is considering yanking AH.
>>539928239Im not saying im having bad performance. Im saying this game uses more CPU sitting idle with nothing going on than a RTS game with a thousand things going on at once.
Is it possible to have an action be bound to multiple keys at once? Like reload on both R and mouse keys?
>>539928364Capes aren't going to animate themselves
>>539927691you have said the actual truth
>>539927373in mission time or steam time?If there is something i learned, the more hours you have clocked in on the steam counter, the less hours you have clocked in mission.
>>539927691post career>>539927373
>>539928265>>539928332I'm just saying it like it is. The main problem of the game is that it does not run acceptably for many people. Arrowhead has proven itself incapable of solving this problem. Replacing Arrowhead does not guarantee things get better but keeping Arrowhead around will guarantee the game's imminent death
>>539928557except it isn't true. The true meta is EAT and other short call things, because that means that dying doesn't matter. You don't have to get your gear back, you're good to go every single time immediately
>>539928714>I'm just saying it like it is.>I get what you are saying and I don't even necessarily disagree with you
>install white skin mods>gripen flies over my houseIt's over...
>>539928743Are you going to tell us how every EAT call in is three kills and how there are absolutely no downsides to it? Please tell me the EATautist is back
Eagle Sweat is an advertisement on the ship TV.is eagle pilot sweat drinks canon
the true meta is EAT, Commando, EAS, Rocket Sentryyes, on all factions.
>>539928805I'm clarifying my position. It's called having a discussion Anon
>>539929000it's a cologne you retard
So its looking like the defense of Hellmire will succeed. Anyone want to take bets that Joel throws a hissy and immediately launches a massive invasion on Mintora/Zeffa/Clasa so that it can just barely end before the MO?
>>539928976EAT is more than 3 kills if you can aim.
>>539928665remember, no squids
The optimal loadout is always EAT, NEAT, Commando, and SiloBe disposable as possible
>>539929129As was I, consult your own admonishment
>>539929160You can drink cologne thoughbeit
>>539927373I have no idea how but I managed to have a 300 hour difference between my In-Mission Time and Steam playtime.I don't leave the game open regularly on the ship and certainly don't do that long enough to add up to a 300 hour difference.Especially considering how often this game crashes from me just being afk. Has this happened with anyone else?
I wish you could customize your ops to some degree so you could guarantee a certain seed, or just adjust enemy numbers altogetherImagine illuminate with more overseers, but no fleshmobs or voteless
>>539929429>thoughbeitgo back
i love how people refuse to play against the race that doesn't require at (squids) then complain they have to take AT every game
>>539929448872 in mission, 1300 steam, its normal, since all the loading screens and such aren't counted as mission.
>>539929448Same. Pretty sure they just have faulty data on it, just like everything else in the game. This was especially noticable early on
>>539928743EAT is one of those items that stand their ground despite being outclassed, but you don't *need* EAT since RR is basically a flawless weapon that does the same thing except with far better damage.
>>539929839but if you die, you don't have RR. But EAT is always there for you, no matter what
>>539927802Merge your mods, that's the main thing that causes issues
I forgot or probably never knew the recoiless rifle had an HE option

>>539929903Tell me you have no idea what youre talking about without telling me
>>539929409>and Siloportable hellbomb so you have an answer to everything. NEAT for groups, commando and EAT for heavies, hellbomb for objectives/structures
>>539929934 (Me)already full waow
not having a back pack should allow you to carry two heavy weaponsthots?
>>539929889Are you helpless without your stratagems, anon? I can waste a drop/breach's worth of enemy with what I have on me fresh outta the pod, and that's without HSO or any of the supply enhancing armor perks.
>>539929584No la
i haven't gotten a 100 credit drop in weeks
>>539930060It worksYou can make 50 empty mods that have no content whatsoever, enable them, then launch thw game, the game will lag a lot moreFor some reason the amount of mods causes lag regardless of what the mods are
>>539929160Are you telling me that Pocari Sweat isn't some cute japanese girl named Pocari's sweat?
>>539929448>start game>steam timer starts>game guard booting up>game opens>skip the studio/tech openings>skip opening cutscene>cutscene of superdestroyer and diver walking onto the bridge>spend time in ship modules, armory, or warbond menus>go on to bridge, pick a planet, operation, mission>get into hellpod, pick your stratagems, maybe change your weapons/armor>cutscene of dropping in as you load>transition, drop in>mission timer starts>get in pelican, complete mission>results screens>cutscene flying back to destroyer and taking the elevator>stats screenI don't know if mission time stops when everyone gets in the pelican or when you load back into the destroyer, but I'm betting it's the former. Not that surprising, really.
>>539930402Pocari always sounded like some sort pfFinal Faggotry monster to me. Like a chocobo.
>>539930343Are you the same guy who verified his files five times in a row?
>>539930715No, ehy would you do that, that wouldn't do anything
The main issues are known to players, there's a memory leak and random CPU spikes that cause freezes and those hard lock ups some experience. All they have to do is sit down for longer than 2 hours a day and go about fixing that
>>539930715Like I am literally just telling you how it works, go do what I said, make 50 empty mods, enable them, launch the game, then a lot of things like loading or saving or planet view or end of years will lag a ton
>>539931225Don't you know? Right now is like the 406th holiday for Swedes this year. Don't be a whip cracker.
>>539931458The game runs like ass even without mods. This isnt a mod issue.
>>539932184NIGGER WE'RE TALKING ABOUT HELLDIVERS 2 NOT STELLARIS!!!!!!!
>>539931458>>539932184You do realize Im saying helldivers 2 is the one that runs worst, right?
>>539932184Holy shit you retard hahahahaStellaris does run better though
Here's some very easy fixes>stop rendering models for thumbnails and use pngs like a normal person>don't spawn in models on the warbond selection screen and use pre rendered gifs>cut the amount of fog in half>roll back that idiotic change to AI calculations that made no noticeable difference anyway

>>539934309lol just have it anyways itll save you time and money, just run a 4x or 10x primary if thats your fancy then scope in at POIs and the arrows will appear if its not literally across the map. Lets you play the game and not waste your time sifting dogshit POIs with nothing in them
>>539934309it didn't work for me until I uninstalled it for some reason. I see the arrows at every distance on unedited LOD now
the eruptor is legitimately better than the AMR

Why do ALL backpackless support weapons are so fucking garbage?
>>539962419It's so good, esspecially once you like get used to knowing where you'll be once you teleport. Have you used it on those maps that are half settlement half regular map? It's so fun to use the Warp pack while sprinting away from enemies and going through the wall
>>539962518BalanceTry the Quasar Cannon
>>539962518Take the Speargoon pill.
>>539962871It doesn't take a backpack slot?
>>539963063No that's the regular Spear, the Speargun is backpackless.
Purifier or scorcher for fighting bugs? Don’t have either and want one for when rupture fucks come back
>>539962871>12 shots>still have to bring along the supply backpack so you don't run out of ammo after 2 minutes
>>539963268You're firing it every 10 seconds?
>>539962419is it just a better jump back? i really like the jump pack and was thinking of getting control group next
>>539963595People who bring the supply backpack can LITERALLY not imagine playing the game without itThey are always the first to talk about crutch starts too
>>539963268You use it for the gas nades and stagger, let’s you use an explosive primary against bugs super safely while also having a warp pack plus stun/thermites/incendiary nades, round it out with ultimatum and you’ve got all your bases covered. Halt + GL is still probably stronger but it’s something different and not too far off.
>>539963791Same but with drones and sentries
>>539963727Basically yes. It doesn't take you as far per-use but you can use it more often (every 6s safely), and it lets you go into buddy bunkers solo.
>>539964108On top of just making the game way more fun, you pretty much have an actual dodge and you can teleport through walls and up a lot of unclimbable terrain. Can’t take it off
>>539964108sick, thanks. i already was looking at control group for the epoch and variable but now im definitely grabbing it
>>539964108>>539964308I love using it to offset the slowness of heavy armor when fighting bots
>>539964318They’re both dog shit, the nades pretty fucking good against bots though, fires small shit and stuns the big ones. Two under the belly can take down a factory strider too.
>>539964318>>539964489Oh yeah that's another thing. Unlike the Jump Pack and the Hover Pack, the Warp Pack doesn't consume any stamina to activate, so it lets you cover much more distance over time even in Heavy Armour.
>>539964489I love it with light, I am speed.
I wish there was a way to test weapons/gear before taking them on an actual mission.
>>539961924bump
So, what happened with Choepessa and whatever the other planet was?I haven't been playing recently because of performance, was it that or some other bullshit?
>>539961924nah I don't feel like itactually maybe fine a little. its got some progression but it tapers off as you get more into it and then nothing if you get really into it. there are no "rare drops" in the traditional sense unless you count getting 100 paid currency free as a rare drop. as long as you play with hdg you always have friends to play with
so how can AH realistically fix the game other than scraping everything and starting over from scratch
Where'd you get that beauty scar, tough guy? Eating bug pussy?
>>539965873Nothing happened. Now you're up to speed.
>>539966252Depends on how you define fix. Because they really should scrap everything and start over.

>>539961028Sauce?
>>539966252>>539966553>they really should scrap everything and start overTEN MORE YEARS (of content dripfeeding and immeasurably complex tech debt)
>>539935742You got a patch last week. You want this poor small indie developer to do another weekly update?!?! Greedy.
>>539965873The playerbase split trying to do it along side of the MO at the same time. It ended with Choepessa not having enough people and we failed the side objective. Then Hellmire got invaded and we almost lost it because people refused to go defend it and stuck to the doomed side objective. We're on track to succeed the MO despite all that, but it was just a matter of the blob not deciding what they want to focus. Nothing really worth caring about, we just won't get whatever free temporary stratagem they were going to give us.
What is the best loadout to completely avoid friendly fire while still remaining potent for each front ?
>>539965873There was a secondary objective where it said we could liberate one of two planets to choose between a mech and orbital thing, it was pretty vague, but a bunch of people jumped at the opportunity for new stratagem, but the devs clarified "No, it's not a new stratagem, it's just making that one free for a bit" so a bunch of people left to go do the major order cause they didn't care, meaning it was really tight to finish the major order for a bit cause people got split.

>>539973595Motorcycle helmets have a quick-detach system designed for first responders so they can quickly and safely remove a helmet by removing immediately accessible screws which allows the helmet to fall apart in specific locations making it much easier and safer to remove.

Personally the only thing I think is truly intolerable as of late is the significant hit to performance because of swigger spaghetti. Also is the whole dev team shuffle something that actually happened or is it some hilarious cope generated by a rumor mill entirely powered by angry neets that got fucked in the butt by diggers? Genuinely curious.
Good morning saarsPlease redeem the negative review saars
>>539977385100% swigger fault
I used to hate bugs a lot more because getting swarmed is annoying as fuck, but all the new toys we have have made them a little more fun. The charger is still the most retarded, unfun, befuddling example of terrible game design I’ve ever seen that I can’t believe these inbred swedes got it through QA. Why the fuck can it move so fast, and why is it silent? And you just know they patted themselves on the back after finishing it and had a hearty lunch of disgusting boiled fish they call Knøfkummpen of some such bullshit. Pisses me off.
>>539979547You forgot "right after dinner"

>>539983708Funnily enough, people who can kill the hivelord in 15 mins or less wouldn't be seething at other people wanting to fight it. Only actual reddit soloshitters like yourself think like that because soloniggers are allergic to teamwork

I don't understand why anyone would be strongly motivated about killing or not killing the hivelord. It's not an efficient use of time at all for any actual resource gains right now, but if people want to do it for the fun of it there's no reason not to and no reason to be mad unless someone is deliberately jobbing and somehow dragging it onto their team that's not interested.I don't think either side of this argument is sincere and I think gucci should get his chest ventilated by shotshell.

Not just because of stuff like the warrior stim tax but also because objectives just cannot be fucking completed half the time due to bugsEven the reddit is turning sour on the devs. The warstrider especially has been an updoot farm recently with a lot of people being mad about how goddamn fucking common they are, which makes it basically required to bring efficient AT since you'll spend the entire mission chewing on them without it.

Maybe even as high as six to eight if you also count the ones on the back and sides of the fusion cannons. If they could be subjected to piecemeal AP3-accessible crippling and relatively rapid AP4 destruction from basically all angles thanks to these, I doubt anyone would find them remotely as cancerous even at the highest end of the current numbers.

Why did I spend so much time with Eruptor when Crossbow is right there
>>539987842a numbers change to the leg joints would fix this enemy with 0 effort from the devs.but they can't even do that. because it would shift the enemy stats array and they would manually have to retype all the stats for all the enemies and the intern would make a typo and suddenly scavengers have 3000 hp.absolutely retarded
>>539988008uh...Eruptor is heavy pen?
>>539988008Eruptor is more fun
>>539987963but you're sidestepping the point; they're fucking covered in copper tone weakpoint goodness that's AP3 on tanks that have a protective outer grill on the hull rear and reinforced backing on the turret or completely unarmored AP1 on Hulks where it's naked. They simply did not finish modeling War Striders properly because swiggers are lazy incompetents and Alexus is actively malicious & spiteful, thus the individual hitboxes and glow effects don't exist where they obviously should. Outside contractors or B-team fuckups fucked it up.>>539988093it can't be that bad, you can't have discreet enemy stats somehow infringe on one another when you replace what's in a single field or add new ones packaged within a discreet enemy type, I don't believe you

>>539992616Gambit = You liberate the attacking planet (in this case, Zzaniah Prime attacking Mintoria) before Mintoria’s timer runs out, which instantly repels the assault on Mintoria.
>>539992393>No bitch ass teammates running away from enemies they aggro'dWhat'sthe problem with kiting?
>>539992616a gambit is where instead of defending a planet directly, you counterattack and take the planet the invasion is coming from to autowin the defense; however this is usually a waste of time since the galactic war is both railroaded and contingent on where the player population blob goes (usually not the gambit target)

I want to use the EMS strike on bots to be helpful but I feel like I should just use an eagle instead
>>539993270HAWK TUAHSPIT ON THAT THING
>>539993343same but for bugs, I've thought of using it in tandem with flamethrower or napalm strike to keep them in one place, but at the end of the day its better to just kill
>>539993558get off the internets unc
Ever since Diggers, I fell in love with Plasma Punisher now
>>539991527>Starts as level 14>Suddenly doubles in strengthWhy does Joel always act like an uppity faggot when it comes to bots? Is he mad we didnt take the bait and just did the MO?
All nonlethal strategems should have their cooldowns reduced by half across the board.
>48 hour invasion>28 hours left on MO??????????Is joel trying to rig the MO by technicality?
>>539993640I can feel everyone groan at me when the pilot says "nonlethal stratagem deployed"Although EMS works if you see a friend already going crazy on a crowdBest to not steal his kills sometimed
>>539993860Non-lethal stratagems should be included on a per-mission basis in exchange for something like 10 common samples (or some other quantity/quality of samples), there's nothing to spend those on once you've finished upgrading the ship and the DSS doesn't take more than you can earn with normal play in the time it takes for the actions to go off cooldown. Plus this way you can still take lethal stratagems and it's not like throwing to take them.
>>539993946What did you expect from someone like this?
I think I figured out why with machine guns harvesters die quickly sometimes and slowly other times. If I'm firing on their hip joints from the side I sometimes hit their thighs instead, which have much less durable than their hip joints. Gonna test just aiming for the thighs in-game.
>>539993343EMS just doesn't have the radius for bots to be useful.>>539993640EMS is fucking amazing on bugs though, one EMS on a breach locks everything in place and rapes them. Even if you lack a breach putting it near yourself means anything that comes towards you will get stunned.
Got 1000sc babyboi im thinking control group for the warp pack
>>539994958What would be a good alternative for bots?Sometimes every strat being a bomb gets boringUsing the grenade/HMG encamps just to have something funLevel 18 btw
>>539995031Leandivers look like THAT?!
>>539994465I've just started to just torch their toes with fireworks grenades.
Finished upgrading all the medium pen weapons which means i'm officially done with the game. I don't use penlet sissy weapons.
>>539995214EMS sentry kinda works. If you're looking to support the team the shield generator helps, but frankly the best tool to help your team is just killing shit. HMG emplacement is pretty good been a bit since I used it unupgraded, EATs are always solid for taking out heavies.Smoke is hard to justify and doesn't get noticed too much. If you REALLY wanna help resupply pack can keep your team topped up.
>>539995214Strafing run is one of the best stratagems to bring vs bots.
>>539995214Commando. Extremely flexible, a zillion uses.Call it down, it has super long distance, 2 shots blows up a bot fabricator, 1 knocks down a flyer, 4 shots blows up a giant fabricator (the ones in the cities), you can use it to clear up a bot drop, 2 shots takes out a tank or hulk or warstrider in the leg etc etc, 120 seconds later you can do it all again.
>>539995406Been looking at the shield generator Wish they had a firing range to test stuff out before realizing it sucks deep in a missionI use thermite like a mad man so im good on heavies, everyone else uses EATs so I just mooch off them if neededLaser cannon gets it done for me most the timeHaving a support item is fun because everyone else is just murderersIll never believe in smoke in video games Planets are dusty enough already>>539995413Yes yes that and cluster eagle>>539995625Curious on the commando too I'll have to check it out or wait for someone to drop so I can tryBut still dont want to purely be an explosion guyI dont have a ton of money because im an idiot who always buys red dot sights on everything

>>539996292Your teammates must have figured something out to be killing them with AMRs so effectively. What's your secret?... I mean, you *do* mean AMR when you say anti tank, right? AMRs are the anti tank weapon for bots after all. And the anti heavy infantry. And the anti light tank. And the anti super heavy tank. And the anti flier. Surely you're not insinuating your teammates sully their loadouts by bringing an EAT or, dare I say it, an RR? You're not playing with crutch-using shitters, are you?
>>539996823sure, Big Boss (forma Veneno) did it with an AR, we have orbital weapons

>>539997952Well, those morons are from 200 years in the future AND a very militarized society waging a three-front war at galactic scale so... All things considered, most Metal Gears would be at least more dangerous than a Factory Strider, being much more mobile and harder to hit (for orbitals more so than man-portable weapons), which isn't bad for 200-year-old tech.

I had two dreams of extreme importance, right after each other. The first was an Illuminate-focused update where they added like 2 new units to the Illuminate (but still no Cult) and everyone was disappointed. But we got fucking huge Lumberer mechs and Baneblade tanks to make up for it.The second was us cutting a way through the Gloom to the actual Bug homeworld where there were huge 8-legged super Bile Titans and other gigantic bugs and shit.These dreams are of great importance as they are visions of what will be added to the game next.
>>540000536>8-legged super Bile Titanssounds creatively bankrupt enough to be true
>>540000536Wrong!War striders now have 5 flamethrowers
>>540000536>huge 8-legged super Bile Titansoh fuck fuck fuck
Reminder that the sterilizer got gutted, instead of applying the confusion effect in one puff like it used to. it takes upwards of 2-3 seconds before the confusion effect takes effect.(This is why you get enemies that are gassed, but are still attacking you. Because the gas effect is applied 4 times as fast as confusion, which actually stops enemies from attacking you and is the whole reason you're using the sterilizer.).https://streamable.com/vop65nhttps://streamable.com/zbyf3t

>>540000536I can confirm your second vision. I also had a dream about eight-legged Super Bile Titans. They were roughly as tanky as Factory Strider's body and while their spit attack looked normal it did damage on 3x larger area than was visually implied. The head was covered in multiple armor plates that needed RR shots to be blown off. If I saw correctly, 3 plates on forehead and 3 on jaw. They still had their green butt, but it was 100% durable, dealt about 5% of Super Bile Titan's max hp and was non-lethal. Arrowhead hire me

Every game is always plagued with arguments about balance. One thing I've always wondered is why developers don't develop an automated system that increases or decreases stats based on player use.Your gun/grenade/gadget/etc. is only being used 0.1% of the time? The automated system buffs the stats every week, and continues to buff them until player usage reaches reaches equilibrium.Tell me why this wouldn't work.
>>540004026A. Balance is more than just changing a number.B. There's different types of balance and metas, that the tool might not be performing poorly it's just never neededC. People using something is never a good indicator, as many factors and variables change thisLike is it a good idea to look into use case? Yeah absolutely. But for helldivers case the main problem is that everything is focussed on DPS prowess due to how reliant players are on killing things to beat the spawn rate of enemies. That niche utility is never worth it over raw fire power. Especially at higher levels.
I watched this shitty video so you guys don't have to90% of it is retarded, the only 'correct' points are when he simply points out actual, real glitches and bugs such as all the host-related stuff but then his conclusion or suggested fix for anything is fucking stupid
>>540002723anon....General Brasch died>the last surviving hero of the First Galactic War has passed away at 103
>>540004381so you are retarded then, thanks for telling us
>>540004270But in my scenario, the automated system would encourage you to bring non-meta gadgets and increase variety.People forget that this is NOT a competitive shooter. You lose absolutely nothing by going overboard with corrections. With an automated system you'd have overpowered gear some weeks, under-powered gear others, and most of the time gear hanging around the middle. But things would never stay the same, which is a good thing.And balance IS just changing a number. You're telling me you can't increase the damage by 1 until the player numbers start reaching equilibrium with other guns?
>>540004712>And balance IS just changing a number. You're telling me you can't increase the damage by 1 until the player numbers start reaching equilibrium with other guns?Yes
I figured it out. >sweden does not have version control>the swedes simply do not speak to each other>they just do their own work in their own isolated bubbles>it takes them a long time to do anything, so the version that they're working on is outdated by the time the content they're making is ready to go>rather than keep their internal working versions up to date, they just push whatever they were working on to the prod build >since there is no agreed-upon internal build, everyone's just hopelessly out of sync>this is why old bugs keep popping up
>>540004381it's not his job to fix it, narrowhead needs to take a couple weeks and actually fix the shit that's in the game already instead of adding unfun stuff.
>>540004903CongratsI can't believe you didn't talk to anyone before posting this and took almost two years to "figure it out" but you pushed your dogshit take to the 4chan anyway, meaning you just posted an outdated view of what happens. I mean, it still works, it's just slightly incorrect, just like all those weapons with reload bug.
>>540004879You are just wrong.You have many numbers for stats; damage, rate of fire, cooldown, etc.You can tweak those numbers for ANY weapon and have them reach equilibrium with other weapons.If you gave the Pacifier 1000 points of damage tomorrow you would see it reach a very high player usage count overnight.>but 1000 points of damage is ridiculousYes, but there exists a point where with the right number people would start taking it over other weaponry. You just have to find that number.
>>540004026>>540004712It was tried before, IIRC the most popular example of that was some old version of Counter-Strike where guns were automatically nerfed and buffed based on usage data, which resulted in people still using the exact same shit as always but now complaining that it's bad.
>>540005316>Kill something in two shots>Kill something in one shots>Hmm will I take the liberator that kills in one shot, or will I take the lib carbine that takes 2 and effectively deals double damageBreak points are only a tiny tiny fraction of balance.
>>540005491shocker, players are retarded and you should never honestly listen to them because they do not knowmy favorite case is still people thinking the MP40 in Enemy Territory being OP and stronger than the Thompson even though they had the exact same stats but the MP40 had a better sound
>>540005767Yeah but that's valid.Fuck the sounds for the guns in this game.
>>540005491>It was tried before, IIRC the most popular example of that was some old version of Counter-Strike where guns were automatically nerfed and buffed based on usage data, which resulted in people still using the exact same shit as always but now complaining that it's bad.I think to make the system work you would need a baseline. Say, for example, that you like where the Coyote currently is in the meta. Have the system automatically buff/nerf other AR's until player numbers start equalizing with the Coyote. The Coyote would remain unchanged. In other words, the guns people like to use would continue to be good and fun.
>>540004532Such blasphemy Sorry citizen but im reporting you to the Ministry of Truth
>>540005914but it was reported by Strohmann news, so it was approved by the Ministry of Truthif it's false, then wouldn't that mean that the Ministry of Truth is lying? or worse yet, General Brasch isn't actually a veteran of the first Galactic War?

>>540005491You don't even need to experience the system itself to see why it won't work. Just look at any game that has frequent balancing updates.>x is the most popular weapon because it's significantly stronger than everything else>devs gives x a small nerf and gives a huge buff to y, the weakest weapon>players complain that x is basically unusable now and abject garbage>won't stop using x because it's still far and away the strongest weapon>won't try y because "uh that's a boring meta">if x gets nerfed again, they just switch to z which is the second strongest weapon, which used to be THE strongest until x got buffed a year and a half ago>y keeps getting buffs until it's comically overpowered and gets used by the playerbase>y gets a nerf and never gets used again
>>5400081483/4either you join now or you're a faggot who doesn't fuck squid females
>>540008552It really doesn't mean anything. The game is so broken right now (especially enemy spawns) that you can either have no trouble completing the most difficult missions or simply have no chance of completing even fairly simple missions.
>>540009231The only balancing the devs need to do is to prevent p2w and power creep, that's it. There is zero reason for any nerfs to be done ever, there should only ever be buffs
>>540008148FVLL
>take the main mo planet with days to spare>le bugs attack>hold them off with time on the mo still, people actually are able to work on other planets>le bots attack the mo planet, even tho the attack ends after the mo is over, so its a guaranteed win, just to draw people thereThey really can’t fucking stand us taking planets outside of MOs, huh?
Fun Fact: We already have a reticle for the AMR, the game just hides it. Sometimes it bugs out and forgets to hide it.
>>540009481it ruins the carefully curated story that only exists in Joel's mind, can't have that
>>540009620i don't get why they even bother hiding it, it's it so it doesn't outshine the autocannon?
>>540009649I imagine because if we take chaseopessa it’s like ‘ok here it is’ and they have to write why we don’t get the buff even though there was no sense of timed urgency to the side objective.
>>540006106>Game is getting increasingly more unstable on all platforms>Bring in a million new players to your unoptimised shitheap>The nostalgiabait warbond made to tempt them into paying more money is filled with mostly shit gear>Release a wave of new enemies that range from annoying to dogshit and pigeon-hole everyone into using the same loadouts (that new players will likely not yet have)>Pretend that you're aware of optimisation issues and are working on improving performance>Follow up by releasing a new biome that is even more unoptimised, with enemies that are even more annoying and also buggy>Xbox players realise the game fucking sucksYeah wow who would have guessed that a new player would see this game at face value and conclude that it's not worth coming back to.
>>540010098AMR is supposed to be a long range sniper weapon, so it must get crippled in close range by not having a reticle
>>540010098even without the reticle the AMR shits all over the sloppy performance of the autocannon.it literally doesn't do anything better than the amr except clearing bot dropships easily
The 60/2 day patch will save us.
>>540010553Mein Super President... Steiners patch...

I hope there's a report function on the xbox store as well. No patch tomorrow btw
>>540010335This is the exact logic I use to explain why the railgun doesn't have a good first person sight. Both weapons are gimped because they are "too good" at those ranges.
>>540006106They get what they fucking deserve I guess.
>>540006106put alexus back into the surstromming basementIt's the only way to save HD2
I'd bet good money on the performance issues being related to the in game store and item screen. Something's not rendering or offloading properly. This would also explain performance getting worse over time because over time more items and warbonds are added, increasing the strain on the CPU. And Dinnerhead are so incredibly bad at coding, I wouldn't put it past them to not be able to program an inventory screen correctly.
>>540009620Fun fact 2: When they added weapon customization, the AMR's ergonomics got slapped with handling debuff equal to equipping 10x scope. However they forgot to adjust the AMR that spawns in PoIs (its separate duplicated object). So now the AMR you can find on maps is objectively superior since it has better handling than the stratagem one. Why are they two identical files instead of PoI-spawning just referencing stratagem AMR? Why did it get debuff in ergonomics when it already had a scope? Only a deranged Swedish mind can know the answers.
>>540012547>Only a deranged Swedish mind can know the answersIt's a real woman moment. Hiring people based on gender rather than actual skills is simply a terrible idea.
>>540012483the new store layout was around before the god awful performance issues, this started in the ODST patch
>>540012547>Duplicating textures>Duplicating normalmaps/bumpmaps>Duplicating a fucking gunMaybe these swedes should consider duplicating their brain cells, but knowing them that'd just make them twice as retarded
>>540010817
>>540002170Still not in line with new enemies. It should also replace all normal BTs and maybe even chargers on diff6 and higher. Spit should also be unavoidable and clip through cover / level geometry.
>>540009342>There is zero reason for any balancing to be done ever, there should only ever be number bloat
>play the game for an hour>turn it off>laptop goes *CRACK*u-uh that WAS just the game audio glitching out r-right?
>>540012859Majority of the game's files are duplicates. I dont remember the exact number but last I saw anons checking it was 80-90GB.
>>540012807Idk, I was getting stutters and freezes before as well, I'd say the ODST warbond only exacerbated the issue to affect more systems>>540012754Speaking of women can someone post Baskinator's ass again? I've been meaning to goon to that gorgeous BBW piece of fuck meat
>>540013143It's more than that even.The actual filesize in terms of unique resources is merely ~30GB, so that's over 100GB of copy-pasting.
>>540013143afaik without the duplicates, the game would be the same size as it is on consoles, meaning that around 100gb are just redundant. This level of incompetence should really be studied
It would be so incredibly easy to just dump those 100 gigs of multiplied files but those lazy faggots simply don't feel like doing it
>>540013543You don't understand, we NEED to optimize the game for third worlders that still use HDDs!
>>540012754>Hiring people based on gender rather than actual skills is simply a terrible ideaIt's actually a great idea, aslong as it means you're hiring men and not woman.
>"We've listened to your complaints about game performance and stability. As you may know, this is owed mostly due to our using of an outdated game engine. We at Arrowhead have thus made the decision to port Helldivers 2 to UE5"What would be your genuine reaction to this information?
>>540013769Everybody would benefit from an optimization update you fucking clown.
Thx dude
>>540013769I am 100% convinced that they didn't do this out of consideration for HDDs but because they're just that fucking inept
>>540013874The files being as they are actually help HDDs in ways I cannot explain, or so I've heard.Still, it would be nice to have the option to not download duplicate files.
>>540013086Just thermal contraction. It happens when hot objects get cold, like after when you just played a game on a machine not suited to playing games (as a laptop inherently isn't) and without a constant source of heat the cooling elements get rid of it fast.It's probably fine.
>>540013414>>540013543I believe the 'reason' the file size is so huge for the PC build is to reduce seek time - consoles apparently have a separate CPU dedicated to unpacking game files and speeding up read time.If that was true though, that only raises another question of why you'd need to quintuple the filesize of a 30GB game which shouldn't even take that long to read on modern hardware. Obviously the answer is simply incompetence, but it just makes me wonder what the fuck the game looks like under the hood, it's probably so grotesque it makes s.t.a.l.k.e.r. clear sky look well put together.
>>539954348>HMG>Supply Pack>EAT>HMG Emplacement>Ultimatum>Liberator>Pyrotech nadesI'm a SEAF grunt , and that's good. I will never be a Helldiver, and that's not bad. There's no one I'd rather be than me.

>>540014112I'm still waiting on an epic haxxor to leak the game's source code, I'd love to see just the day one at coding school level code that those fags must be working with
>>540014112Seek times are instant and position-agnostic on SSDs, it literally does nothing but bloat the filesize. I doubt it would be much help on HDDs either as at some point the sheer size of the assets loaded per unit of time overtakes the read speed of the magnetic drive even if you disregard the seek times.
>>540014139 meant also for >>539927691
>>540014139Then why did you drop in a Hellpod?
>>540014112Reminds me of that one time Bethesda cut like one third of dialogue (and subsequently entire quests and areas) for Fallout 3 (or was it Oblivion?) because of size constraints... because their audio was stored uncompressed to the and whoever was in charge didn't realize they could just compress it.
>>540014885Did they patch it back later on or was this stuff never restored/released?
Here's an important life lesson lads, most of the weird shit that you'll come across anywhere is almost always the result of someone's idiocy and incompetence.
>>540015000No, of course not. People only really realized what happened a few years ago when someone looked into the files and noticed all the audio was uncharacteristically large for a 00s game.
>>540014112It honestly sounds like they're not even making proper use of RAM or VRAM, considering the game's maps are all procgen, and most of the biomes use identical assets that are only using differently colored textures. It also sounds like they have the worst fucking folder structure too, if they need to duplicate every event asset for every planet.
>>540015393bruh
>>540013850Disgust. The current game runs like garbage but has sovl. UE5 would not be able to support Pilestedt's autism and the game would run bad and feel like a floaty generic piece of shit.
They need to take the game offline for 6 months and rebuild the entire code structure, the game is at an acute risk of just fucking collapsing in on itself. I mean what fucking problem could these dumbfucks have to have to take a 5 week break from updating the game just fix a single enemy type???
>>540015430I just checked it because I wasn't sure if I remembered it right and it was Fallout 3 specifically, but Oblivion also had the same audio compression and possibly suffered the same fate.People noticed it only because Fallout: New Vegas (which wasn't made by Bethesda) had equivalent audio length (and even the same sounds, as it shared a lot of assets) take up half the space or less without a noticeable drop in quality, and connected it to some Bethesda interviews from around the time of Fallout 3 release where they "boasted" they actually had to cut a lot of content because it wouldn't fit on consoles anymore.
>>540015714The shitty disaster that is the spaghetti code is catching up to them. The year's worth of bandaids slapped on problems instead of fixing anything is starting to implode. They can't do anything anymore without the structure collapsing.
>>540015942>>540015942>>540015942>>540015942>>540015942
>>540015409>It also sounds like they have the worst fucking folder structure too, if they need to duplicate every event asset for every planet.They don't "need to". Helldivers 2 on consoles takes up 25-35GBs of space IIRC. The size bloat is just a PC issue.
>>540015926I'd argue it's already collapsed. Not many games out there that are capable of corrupting software, damaging hardware and hardcrashing PCs. That's not even mentioning the issues on consoles.
>>540015714It'd never come back online. The problems run too deep for the current retards to fix. The only thing they could do at this point is shit piss and cum themselves in prostration to the original devs and pay them millions to get them back. Then, take at least at MINIMUM a year, if not two, to actually fix the game.In that same time, Sony could probably spin up a studio to take all the current assets and make a facsimile of it. Add in an overpriced, gaudy MTX store, and call it Helldivers 3. It runs well but lacks all the swedish autism, but retards don't care so they gobble it up while wearing horse heads and emoting mumble rap. This is the future by the way, my ancestral father imparted this knowledge to me via a spirit communion.
>>540014027HDDs have reader head that has to move to physical position data is stored. This takes time. So if two guns share same texture, its faster for HDD to read gun1+texture1, gun2+texture1 on disk sequentially than gun1+texture+1+gun2+move back to previous location to fetch texture1 again. However the effect is close to zero if there aren't hundreds of small files on very different locations that have to be accessed each frame. This is proven by the fact that load times between HDD and SSD install are almost identical. And even then you dont have to duplicate everything each time, just lumping frequently-read-together things in one block would achieve 90% of the time savings of duplicating everything everywhere.>>540014112Only applies to HDDs, and in Helldivers´ case the effect is so negligible that it doesnt warrant extra 100GB in any sane mind. However this is Arrowhead: we arent talking about sane minds.

>>540015926That's tech debt for you. Years of quick/bandaid fixes, code bodged together rather than made to with future developments in mind, and a 'we'll deal with it later' mentality catches up to you. And it AH's unenviable case the entire game is fucked from the foundation because that was their mindset from the get-go, that's how you get stuff like strategem balls bouncing infinitely in an update that didn't change how they functioned or even add new strategems at all.
