Previous thread: >>541494125>WHAT IS HELLDIVERS 2?HELLDIVERS 2 is a 2024 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 Managed Democracy. Players wage war on a number of contested planets, each with a different environment, completing as many objectives as possible within a procedurally generated area while constrained by a time limit. With enough successful operations a planet can be completely liberated, and the player base must cooperate to try to liberate the entire galaxy by focusing and combining their efforts as much as possible.https://store.steampowered.com/app/553850/HELLDIVERS_2/https://www.playstation.com/en-us/games/helldivers-2/https://www.xbox.com/en-us/games/store/helldivers-2/9mx9wn9dfpgt>WHAT ABOUT THE FIRST HELLDIVERS GAME?Released in 2015 for PC, PS3/4 and PS Vita, the original HELLDIVERS is a shared screen top-down shooter in the same setting.

>scorpion armor for desert planet kino>barely any helmets fit with itmany such cases
what would you guys think about loadouts closer to the ol' roleplay roles, tank, AoE damage,single target dmg, support(very limited heals but think emplacements, ammo, timed shield) i know it has some of these, but im thinking more of it
>>541570307yes I want the rumbler to be the mobile artillery man who can fuck up semi distant bases by himself if only his mates give enough cover and reload help
You can't have a grunt fantasy when the grunt in question can easily take out hundreds of combatants occupying a heavily fortified base within minutes. This game is a power fantasy at the end of the day and should be treated as such.
>>541570547but how many of the enemies are actually taken out by the grunt himself as opposed to his CAS, spaceship, sentries, and heavy man portable weaponry that he needs fucktons of cover fire to have any hope of reloading?

>>541571076in military context grunt means someone who does frontline work and doesn't get to be at a cushy periphery of the battlefield (such as the air or orbit) so yes Helldivers are gruntsthe guys aboard the spaceship, Eagle and Pelican pilots are the ones that are not grunts
>>541571441I know what a "grunt" means dude, I was in the US Army for six years.Granted as a pog IT specialist but still
>>541571581yes well a sufficiently ranked irl grunt would obviously have authority to call in air strikes and similar heavy ordnance right?
>Join SOS extermination mission>Reinforce the leader>Kicks meBrowns need to be rounded up and shot>>541571751... That's a fair point I concede
custom bot anon doko...
>>541571076You could argue that the helldivers are merely "requesting" assistance (artillery barrage, air support), but SEAF has basically removed all bureaucracy inherent to these and just instantly approve any Helldiver stratagem call;

So I finally got hte ultimatum but it doesn't seem as good as I'd hoped. I'm guessing it has to be a direct hit with the grenade to kill tanks? Cause sometimes it's not killing things like hulks if it lands near them but not on them.

So when exactly does starting extraction disable stratagems, is it when you run out of time and it starts on its own or is it just random?

so the warbond is getting announced tuesday rightand we're getting a bugfix patch
>mid October>Patch finally comes out>Minor buffs>Digger bugs with less armor>Leviathans can now be 3 shit by the RR>Game size slightly reduced>That's it>Retards will applaud this>AH doesn't fix anything else and gets away with it
>>541592253Well. Apparently it only took them four years to create the bots. Who knows if ship 00 was autonomous or not. So there “spiritual leader” of the bots could be something like:>A) an encyclopedia w/ bibliography referencing the borgs operating as a prime directive of sorts>B) a physically present crew of cyborgs who created and groomed them>C) a vessel 00 based AI wet nurse that took the place of B and performed A, but with personified steps added into the equation between ship departure and bot invasion I’m still hoping we find the bots to be people, just ones being carried through life in craniotomy incubators -> mobile hospice suits
>>541593331>There's no way in hell the Swedes put in the effort to made a full new set of visuals for Cyborgs.I guarantee they will in a major update, but then they'll disable it after 2 weeks and promise to bring it back in 5 weeks
>>541593828is mid October
>>541593329I want this to be a giant metal planet to dive on too. The doubting voices in my say it's gonna just be a visual of "super duper dense automaton forces here" on the galactic map in combination of a reskinned Meridia Singularity even that will maybe blow some more planets up. I doubt it'll even get a visual in the skybox of whatever planet it's orbiting.
>>541594008>I'm hoping for the most tired and overused trope in modern media

>>541594094>blood borne chalice dungeon, but BLAME8 bit helldivers rogue like incoming: cyberstan tourists edition
>>541592965The Cyborgs were being enslaved in the mines of Cyberstan as punishment for their part in the war in HD1. More likely is that they secretly built and sent Vessel 00 to build the Automatons outside of the galaxy, who would later come and liberate them. Though the real question would be, why did they start in the Severin Sector (where Malevelon Creek is) instead of the Valdis Sector (where Cyberstan is).
>>541591819>5 years ago a ship departed from Cyberstan, what was in it? nobody knoooowsTruly riveting storytelling, I'm at the edge of my seat here. Arrowhead's done it again, this will get the sloptuber theories flowing for sure.
I hate sentries more than I hate automatons. You can trust an automaton to try to kill you, you cannot trust a sentry by any measure. Flame sentry gets a pass though, he is based.
>>541594094Diving on it whenever they move it to a planet they want to destroy, give it a health bar like the great host had and once it reaches 0 the automatons retreat to repair it. Though that might eventually become too tedious

Flying overseers and bile dragons are especially guilty of this.

>>541595025>>541594094You've posted this before, faggot, and you're still right.
>>541591819Calling it now: The nexus (or was it the nucleus, I can't remember) is a computer on Vessel 00 that contains the digitized consciousness of the cyborg remnants. They use this computer to direct the Automatons OR they control the Automatons directly from this computer.
>>541595751ill make one inna bit, 30 min or less
>>541596264Sorry, you're right. What topic should I talk about instead?
>>541594008My theory is that cyberstan is being rebuilt by taking brains and turning them into cyborgs. There's a reason why they emphasize the difference between the automatons and the cyborgs.
>>541596332>all you need is kill 2: inheritors of cyberstan boogaloo
>>541596379Tits.
>>541596130The lore of Vessel 00 implies that the bots absolutely are set up on a planet outside of the map, which implies we'll be getting a galactic map expansion at some point at least. The bots' objective was Cyberstan, but they seem like they're going to try to move Cyberstan out of Super Earth's sphere of control and out into their fortress world. Either that or turn Cyberstan into a Death Star, maybe both, honestly.
>>541596053Should call it swedish vacation simulator
>>541594094>>541595025the best case scenario is that it's a cloned improved Meridian singularity event where the planet it's about to blow up after reaching stable orbit is subject to inverted DSS modifiers that fuck us up while spawning special missions to damage it, later followed by missions diving directly on the Botstar, and even later followed by its blasting all the way to Super Earth or if we stop it early doing an emergency jump to Super Earth to try and suicide attack us
>>541596478Cyborgs will probably be dissidents/deserters like in the first game.
>>541596332>>541596379Ah, I misread. You’re saying it’s an eldar brain for cyberstanis, not a bot soul catcher/reservoir simply managed by the cyberstanis to upload bot data to when they’re scrapped
>only 3% left to liberate the planet>40% of turing ppl are certified retardsthis is scary
>>541596478>There's a reason why they emphasize the difference between the automatons and the cyborgs.The Cyborgs were the original dissenters that went against Super Earth and were sent to work the shit mines as super slaves. The Automatons are both not the Cyborgs, as well as not cyborgs, so it would be stupid to conflate the two.
>>541596939sorry anon but you can't ask people to simultaneously understand that planet jackpot captures are the way to get big liberation AND that there's no point going for the jackpot anymore when it's going to severely overshoot the liberation we actually need
>>541593329This is either going to be a Death Star, or orbital defenses. Which Super Earth had implied they had had during the Menkent Line bit (where they said they had set up an orbital defense system around Menkent and Lesath to stop the bot's from pushing past those two planets) that immediately fucking folded in like a week's time. Joel could easily just say "yeah, the bots repurposed those orbies so that they'll shoot down super destroyers that try to get near bot factory worlds/Cyberstan. So we need to do some convoluted MO to counter those orbies."

>Only completing the mission gives liberation. Literally nothing else matters.Neat. Neat. Means I can safely ignore all the dogshit side-objectives from now on. Or if the map's been sweeped clean and there's just a lidar station left to deal with you can just ignore that shit because it doesn't actually do fuck all for liberation if you complete it.
>>541598512Apparently liberation is actually based on how much XP you get. I could be wrong because sweden refuses to explain jack shit.
>>541596778>special missions to damage itReskinned Take Down Overship mission. Or a launch nuke mission where the objective says the nukes are going to the Bot DeathStar (but the explosions are the same as they are in normal nuke missions because Arrowhead).

>>541598606I'm not sure I believe that either, because I've been playing plenty of games where we do a 100% sweep and still only get the minimum amount of liberation.

>>541598881The answer to this problem is simple: just host and focus main objectives. And if there are autists that freak out because you're not full clearing then just tell them that it doesn't fucking matter and or kick them. Simple enough. Actually, now that Arrowhead explained only main objective matters for liberation, this boosts the value of the faster extraction buff booster if you're just a liberation farmer on D10, since you can just knock out the main objective then hit extraction and be out in less than 10/15 minutes.

>>541604430>seaf soldier with coyote and gas dogSeeing this makes me realize I don't hate Arrowhead enough.
>>541604347Diggers are honestly just a bad idea as a concept. The point of bugs is managing distance and preventing yourself from being overrun by prioritizing targets and stopping them from closing the distance, but Diggers remove this as an option, effectively letting them teleport into melee unless you have a full explosive loadout to force them out early.Compare this to Preds, who despite also having tools to close the distance quick, they still allow you to keep them at bay just by staying on your toes and hitting your damn shots, so despite both subfactions being built around subverting the main weakness the bugs have, Preds do it far better.In my opinion Diggers would have been better as a Hive subfaction, where they don't do the stupid tunneling, but are instead a Hive Guard strain, with heavily armored fronts and weaker backsides that are designed to block hive tunnels and lie in ambush curled up like boulders.Or they could just fix the damn tracking on the warriors.

>>541606739For some things, yeah, like sterilizer is a worse flame Thrower, but it's sort of like a slower fire, less damage but stays around for longer and confuses the enemy, so gas grenades and mines are like different/good
>>541606739Braps are for CC. Fire is for death
>>541605016I’m not a bug diver, but when I was hunting roach dragons with the new patch I would almost never take explosive weapons that weren’t anti tank, so I never took advantage of it.Still, I they were never a factor, like I can’t actually remember them even hitting me once. The few times I remember shooting them with a explosive weapon I picked up, I remember it being kind of jank, like they wouldn’t pop up or it would seem to do no damage when they eventually exposed themselves. Maybe I was just missing.
>>541600660Probably something along the lines of "Liberate two Gloom-infested planets to push the Gloom back" or some shit like that.>>541601418What I'm more aggravated about is that (1) we don't have a SEAF trooper squad deployment stratagem, and (2) Stim Pistol can't heal them. Not having them outside of megacities is fine, since we could reasonably assume that they're dead and/or slaughtered outside of major fortified areas.

Does heavy armor penetrating mean it can damage charger legs? Or does that need anti tank?
I think they should buff fire. It should do respectable damage to tank units.
>>541607660I feel like all fire weapons do good enough damage, except the flamethrower which is a piece of fucking dogshit that gets you killed trying to use it on trash mobs.
>>541607558Heavy penetration is AP4, Anti-Tank is AP5 and up. Chargers, Bile Titans and Impalers only have 4 armor.
>>541607787just use floor fire on trash
>>541606739Use gas to mindfuck enemies, then walk up and light them on fire.
>>541607660Heavy flamethrower with a backpack canister that uses the same fire as napalm eats which apparently does twice as much damage.you don't have to reload as it's just one big magazine that ammo pickups refill 1/4th at a time.

Joel is the quintessential "Bad DM". He takes it as a personal offense when players have fun and defeat the challenge. He doesn't care about "the story" because whatever he wants to happen, will happen. See also: War Striders.Devs take it personally offensive when you, the player, defeat the enemy. So they make an obnoxious enemy with no meaningful weaknesses.
>>541609280Joel self-inserts as the bots. I dont have proof but I just know it.

>>541609773>waaah I need to have one of my stratagems being able to defeat an AV4 enemyrelease bots had AA defenses on 75% of the opsthis is literally a non-issue unless you're a tourist or retarded
>>541609280>Joel is the quintessential "Bad DM".I can kinda sympathize with this in the sense that the first DnD campaign I ran was a !Cold War set in fantasy-land and instead of the globetrotting adventure I had initially planned the players skinned a halfling alive in boot camp (and fried and ate the skin, or fed it to the halfling, I can't remember) and also used a dead orc as a silencer by shoving a sniper rifle up his butt. There were good moment too, and it was a good lesson in how to adapt as a DM to player shenanigans (and retardation. But man, the shit players get up to...
>>541610060A good GM is there to provide an interesting narrative around what the players are doing while still loosely following the plot.A bad GM thinks hes there to control everyone like a screen writer for a TV show.

>>541610190Yeah, maybe "sympathy for the Joel-vil" was the wrong way to put it. After figuring out how psychotic the players were, it's just about altering the rest of the campaign to accommodate that. It's not like there wasn't a niche for such players to fill in a Cold War fantasy world anyways. Sort of "fire-and-forget" these goons with plausible deniability kind of deal. And honestly, the players having a desire on how their characters want to go was actually a relief as a first time DM. I was already sweating about what the fuck the NPCs were and their motivations. Having to also come up with stuff for the players would have been a chore. I found that they really liked the set pieces (even if they just sat back and leveled them with artillery) and some of the implications of certain characters they met (ancient Tiefling bound to the control room of a crashed spaceship by clerical magic) instead of me presenting them with specific missions.
>>541608657to be fair vog will cap out on its own in a week if Joel doesn't nig Lesath and vernen sticks in their dumb brains because it was in the direction of the other ex-MO target, but the correct action is to make more pockets like vog by capping Blistica, Fenmire, Curia, Duma Tyr and so on to gradually make as many single-planet encirclements as possible, especially ones that may bypass high resist planets by not just deleting but partly inverting their resistance
>>541609734Your post tacitly admits that the Strider goes against the design of the faction. Why shouldn't the elite enemies have more varied weak-points instead of being AT check or or odd unintuitive weak-points like their joints instead of their eyes or a back radiator.
>>541609280If Joel really does have tabletop experience, he must be the absolute worst fucking DM imaginable>hallo players, welcome to my game>we would like to go to the caves and kill goblins>okay great! you will go to the town first to pick up supplies>no we have gear we want to go to the caves>...ah... what>yes we go to the caves>oh ah... oh well you see there are town guards in the road!>okay we tell them we're going to the caves>they say the caves are off limits to outsiders>why>because they are full of dangerous goblins!

>>541612402https://helldivers.wiki.gg/wiki/Major_Orders#A1-4-6In the early days of the game, the Automatons were in the western sector of the map (where Malevelon Creek is, you may have heard that name thrown around as if it meant something). We wiped them out and pushed them off of the map, and then they suddenly reappeared in the northwest sector (where they are right now) and instantly conquered like a half-dozen planets and then started expanding. After losing the initial defense MO (successfully defend 5 planets, we defended 3), the next MO (April 12 2024) was to establish the Menkent Line (take and hold Menkent and Lesath for 4 days), and then Marfark in the MO after that (between April 16 and 18).And then we lost all three of those planets between April 20 and 23, less than a week later. Keep in mind, this was several months before they actually made supply lines visible for players outside of third-party websites, so we had no fucking clue what planets to defend and where the bots could attack.

They should add a new unit to bots that's just a nanobot swarm that can only be killed with flamethrowers.Then when anyone says that they don't fit in with the rest of the faction, shills can just say to just always bring flamethrowers to bots and stop complaining.
>>541613986We'll probably get a token bump to Vernen Wells and Seyshel Beach, and the bulk will probably move on to Achird or Ursica, maybe Estanu.
