B-01 Tactical Edition :>>Previous>>548228660>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 Managed 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.

Dead threadDead game
>>548408273I hope we'll get a few sniper rifles at some point. Felt like a missed opportunity when the Killzone sniper came out and they added the weapon category. What anon was talking about in the previous thread could be a good place to start. We have enough assault rifles, enough marksman rifles, and the submachine guns niches are pretty much covered too. Just do the CoD archetypes, you've got your snappy light bolt action that lets you get on target fast for precision kills, your middle child sniper rifle is basically the DCS, and then you'd have a big heavy thing that shoots fiddy cal. Just make them big heavy bullpups and people will buy the slopbond for sure.
>>548408805At least you're here anon <:3 I'm going to head to bed soon though, thanks for posting an image at least. I don't want to play Helldivers 2 tomorrow, I want to skip a day before the warbond comes out hehe
Day 661Still no SEAF stratagem. At this point, even the rookies have stopped asking when it’ll arrive. We’ve fought through two full sectors without so much as a SEAF-issued crate or orbital ping.Rumor is they’re “restructuring.” Whatever that means, it doesn’t help us on the ground.We continue the mission anyway. Same gear, same grit. No SEAF.For Democracy,A Very Tired Helldiver

>Many players have complained about how it makes no sense that the solo silo can wipe out a bunker in a single shot, but do nothing to jammers, detector towers, and monoliths.>We hear you loud and clear. We also agree wholeheartedly.>Which is why we buffed the bunker hp to where a single silo missile will no longer be enough.>We also limited the laser designator's range to 175 meters.How would (You) react?

>>548412510"Cool, still gonna 120 it"command bunkers should be side objectives, the amount of range they cover would make them cool to see show up randomly. They shouldn't be main objectives though.
>>548412510Based honestly, storming bunkers with the hellbomb is way more fun than snipping them from the other side of the map
>>548412510I would continue to kill bunkers with two EATs tubes.

>>548415064Only the de-escalator got changed and it wasn't intentional, and it can also still kill people. The de-escalator's damage is affected by connection, so if you get hit and don't take damage it's because of your latency.K-9 still oneshots people easily.
>>548416719NTA, but VNR only means that your IP address is known to frequently shitpost on this particular blue board.
>>548418394K-9 doesn't target self. I tested this a bunch, the only time it zapped me was when a voteless was litterally inside my own hitbox
I think the worst part of the movie was the scene where the other heavily equipped squad comes in and while they were blowing up shit, which is cool, it's also done to the tune of a quartet of 4 fucking awful voices trying to sing words that can barely be made out, it sounds like a bunch of drunk faggots at a pub and I would have preferred they just use an actual fucking rock song or some shit
>>548415793>One person is being fucking useless checking POIs all gameI regularly do this and I will continue to do this now that I know that it makes you mad.

>>548408273>The community has gone full retard and started blaming content creators for the game dyingWe truly are living in the Idiocracy timeline. People ignore the awful performance issues, terrible balance decisions, slow and lackluster updates, constant crashes, asinine developer posts, and unfixed glitches. All just to worship Arrowhead and pretend "winning" means getting screwed over by a shitty company. The sheer level of stupidity is unreal.

>there are people that think this dissident shit is going to spawn a fourth faction >they don't know it's just filler shit while AH is still chipping away at bugs
>>548420579I think its more retarded that people think it will be a 4th faction and not a subfaction like everything else. Cyborgs are literally the dissident faction.
>>548420191That's because criticizing the devs is verboten so the blame has to go somewhere so when the sloptubers made a big stink on how the game is shit and the devs are shit pointing fingers at them is crest and fresh according to the retardittors
>>548415793Westerners, who idolize rugged individualism above everything else (based), are generally averse to following a social rule simply because it existsthe social rule in question is to stick together and cooperate because it's a co-op gamehowever, because the game isn't balanced such that solo play becomes very risky or nonviable (like it used to be), said social rule isn't valid to the Western mind, shrimple dee dimple

>>548420705>>548420950The thing is, the average subreddit isn't THIS bad. For instance, usually the worst you get on reddit are vocal people with shitty opinions who downvote everything they don't like. Which is basically 4chan, except the slurs get replaced with downvotes. It's hard to have a healthy discussion on reddit but it's not impossible, same with 4chan. But this level of delusion is unlike anything you'll ever see on both sites. These are "people" who are completely and utterly brainwashed. And the fact that people like them get to be a part of society is truly terrifying. Sure, none of us will live long enough to see Idiocracy become real, but it's already set in motion. Just be grateful you'll never be that retarded.
>>548421475full
>>548421526The only thing I concede is that bufftoddlers ruined the game. If you want me to be cooperative, make swiggers implement a difficulty tier that forces me to. Until then I'll run off and speedrun two thirds of the map on my lonesome while you get bogged down by enemy call-ins. It's the meta.
>>548422209>Moving the goalpostI already accepted your concession, you dont need to send another.
>>548420405>eating up reinforcements because perpetual combat staying in one spot is usefulWhy are you this retarded?
>>548422335Again, no concession has been made.Easy game = I will not cooperate. Individualism is non-negotiable.
>>548422373>>eating up reinforcements because perpetual combat staying in one spot is usefulWhat the fuck are you even talking about?>>548422442>Again, no concession has been made.Westoids are so ignorant they think they can say random things and in their eyes thats "winning"And once again youve moved the goalpost to a topic nobody was talking about.This is the 3rd concession youve sent me. Please dont spam.
>>548421873As dumb as redditors are, may i remind you that it was /hdg/ who sided with them? The 60 day patch that killed the game is an abominable mutt child between redditors and /hdg/. Remember that before you start judging others of being stupid or delusional.
>>548422613There's simply no reason for me to adhere to a collective when the collective does not benefit me in any way. Change the collective such that it meets my demands. Or fuck off. These are your options.

>>548423419Thank you for proving how ignorant and selfish you are. You only play in lobbies because in your warped mind, you think everyone is a servant. Why cant you just play alone? Are you too slow to complete objectives?>Turbo projection. We'll do fine.5 million more Indians have been added to your nation.
>>548423710>Why cant you just play alone?Why should I? There's no penalty for solofagging provided the host doesn't mind.>y-you just shouldNo, see, this is where the westoid in me tells me to stop listening. If a social rule serves no purpose it HAS TO be ignored.
>>548423879>There's no penalty for solofagging provided the host doesn't mind.So why arnt you the host? Are you afraid of diving in alone?>If a social rule serves no purpose it HAS TO be ignored.Westoids are so selfish they think cooperation serves no purpose. Dead nation with decayed values.
>>548420191>redditYou should know by now that literally everything you read on that site is fake, everyone on it is fake. You won't see a genuine opinion on anything because of heavy handed moderation and the effect the karma system has on discourse and posting in general. It's primarily used and consulted by intellectual cowards.
>>548424052>cooperation serves no purposeIt doesn't in Helldivers 2. Not anymore. Protip: There's no purpose beyond that of cold, naked utility. I don't need mates to clear objectives, therefore I don't care where they are or what they do. Faggot sentiment is the only reason why we're not conquering the stars right now.
>>548422898>There's simply no reason for me to adhere to a collective when the collective does not benefit me in any way. You're posting anonymously. That's by definition adhering to a collective and benefiting from it, faggot.

>>548424463You will occasionally see real shit here. The only way to supress it is with noise because there is next to no curation or aggregation here. Social media is on the whole worse.
>>548424516>So why are you not playing alone in a private lobby?see >>548423879>Why should I?I gain no disadvantage from solofagging in a squad. Quite the opposite. They'll bait enemy call-ins off objectives.
>>548424743>>Why should I?If youre such a rugged individualist why are you relying on other people to do your job for you? Its fitting the fat westoid needs other people to run around the map for them even in video games.
>>548424904taking advantage of people isn't quite the same as relying on them. I'm pretty sure you know exactly what I'm talking about, Mr Easterner.
This is the most plebbit general on the site, no joke.
>>548424487I did. You're gish galloping. Now prove me wrong and put on a tripcode, faggot.
>>548424681>You will occasionally see real shit here.Nah. It's all smoke and mirrors. You'll get it when you're older. Until then, have as much "fun" as you can. I'm needed elsewhere for now, seeya when the next big swedish fuckup happens.
>>548425092>taking advantage of people isn't quite the same as relying on themSo you need to take advantage of the skills of others in order to finish a mission? I thought you were a rugged individualist? Sounds more like youre just a freeloader.
>the irony of grouptroons implying soloGODs are shitters
>>548425149Its a reddit game
>>548425409Why do they need to join lobbies if they can solo? Sounds more like you need others more than they need you.
>>548425567Why shouldn't they join lobbies?
>>548425567cuz then no one can see how cool you are? what kind of stupid question is that?
>>548425149Yeah, no shit. This general screamed and cried in unison alongside with reddit until the cancerous 60 day patch was conceived.
>>548425567If you are so good at the game why do you need three others?
>>548425614Joining other peoples lobbies and relying on 3 other people do clear 80% of the map for you isnt soloing
>>548425092A man's choice of words speaks more about that man than whatever words he could speak about himself. He doesn't know any better.
>>548425713Again, taking advantage =/= relying. Can you give a dispassionate, utilitarian reason why soloGODs should play alone?
>>548425687>Once again the westoid jumps to accusations of egoI enjoy the company of others. If I wanted to solo I would set the lobby to private. This game is best when played with others. Playing solo while joining other peoples lobbies is just freeloading.>>548425824So you rely on them instead?>Can you give a dispassionate, utilitarian reason why soloGODs should play alone?I dont think I can because it sounds like you cant do a true solo if you need to rely on 3 other people to clear the rest of the map for you
>>548425736alright I admit them not being able to tell the difference would explain all the generational misery over there.
>>548425987>This game is best when played with others.Then add friends who will orbit you and set your own lobby to friends only.
bufftoddler is too mindbroken to realize that difficulty serves a purpose and that d11 is direly needed to re-incentivize forming squads
>>548426145I want to play with random people. Thats how you make friends.Why cant you send your lobby to private and play by yourself?
"Solo" players get so heated when you press them because they realize how contradictory they sound when trying to defend their selfish freeloader behavior.
>>548426256because he has no reason to, there's no incentivewe can't do it for free, we hate jannies here
>>548426571So you cant actually do a true solo and you need to rely on 3 other people to do the bulk of the work for you?So much for westoid "Rugged individualism" A walking joke
>>548426256No, you want 4 guard dogs at the same time. You are not going to make friends being this much of a shitter.
I don't like solo players but they're only a problem because the game has become easy enough for them to exist in the first place. If you don't like solo players but also happen to be a strong supporter of the 60 day buff patch then you're a hypocrite who has only xerself to blame.

>>548426883>No, you want 4 guard dogs at the same time.How do you unlock 5 player mode? But isnt that what you want? You want 3 other players to clear 80% of the map for you. And again, with the westoid ego thing. Why are you all so insecure about yourselves?
>>548427095>the turboshitter is also incredibly retardedOne guard dog + three orbiters. l2math
>>548413613>he doesn’t stop the convoyFucking lazy and undemocratic desu. You should face the wall now.
>>548427241So if Im bad because I need a lot of people? Arnt you just as bad because you need 3 people to clear the map for you while you "solo"Something isnt adding up, westoid. I think you dug yourself into a hole.
grouptroon should post a lobby so normal players can join, block him and leave
>>548426853I don't want to follow someone else around, but do want the advantages of being in a squad. Thankfully (read: thanks to players much worse than I) the game is balanced for this. Enemies had their armor reduced and can be killed in any amount by one guy. Samples serve no purpose to the overwhelming majority of the active playerbase. Reinforcements are always abundant, so absolutely no-one minds me wasting them on lone wolf shit. Bufftoddlers asked the monkey's paw for their ideal version of the game and in so doing gave soloGODs all the reasons to be in squads despite not having a social cell in our bodies. Thanks by the way.
>>548419739Based>>548420405>”REEEEE I WANT YOU TO PLAY LIKE I WANT YOU TOOOOO GET KICKED YOU BIG MEANIE!!!!”Lmao he still won you whiny faggot. Stay mad.
>>548427431Oh I forgot: Supply pack exploit made sure I can call selfishly call resupply drops in the middle of nowhere and nobody will even take notice. I'm playing in exactly the way the game incentivizes me to.
Once the rate of sales dry up Arrowhead employees should go around abducting random people and forcing them to play Helldivers 2 to simulate conscription like a real war.
>>548427431>I don't want to follow someone else around, but do want the advantages of being in a squad.So youre a freeloader that waits for bug breaches on the other side of the map? I thought you were good at the game?>>548427631I got what I wanted. Why would I be mad?
>>548427431>so absolutely no-one minds me wasting them on lone wolf shit.This but I don't use them.
If you supported the buffs then you have no right to be mad at solo players. You reap what you sow.
>>548427716i thought you said that you are livid?>>548420405
>>548421475GGs.
>>548427716>So youre a freeloaderSure.>I thought you were good at the game?I am, but all skill checks have been comprehensively removed so being somewhat competent isn't a requirement for soloGOD antics anymore.
>>548427783I see sarcasm is lost on the westoid unless explicitly stated its sarcasm.
>>548427890post hex code of your skin color
>>548427886So you join other people to play "solo" because skill checks have been removed and instead of challenging yourself like you "solo" players love to do and play in a private lobby with self-imposed challenges you freeload off other people and tell them theyre bad?I think youve had too many cheeseburgers, westoid. Youre not making sense.
i have never seen a person get kicked for solofagging a single time
>>548420784Is that why britbongs have to submit their IDs to get a wank loicense? LOL
>>548428119Most of the time they slip under the radar because theyre useless 90% of the time trying to clear one nest on their own. Only time people remember them is when they inevitably die and need to be reinforced.
>>548428118Helldivers 2 is the last game I'll boot up if challenging myself is what's on my mind. At no point has it not been too easy unless you count hilarious unfinished shit like diggers rubberbanding onto hosts.
>>548427782I miss launch extractions, back when the meta was saving an orbital laser charge for the end because most random teams couldn't handle the amount of patrols swarming the beacon
>>548428316>Helldivers 2 is the last game I'll boot up if challenging myself is what's on my mindSo why did you bring up skill checks?
>>548428474Because this game lacks them. I see AIDSland hasn't gotten any better at English.
Helldivers 2 is a creative mode/ party game, with no requirement for cooperation. (Courtesy of redditors and /hdg/)
>>548428608I think you lost the plot, westoid. You dont even know what point you were trying to make anymore.
>>548428617N-nooo! You should still orbit me to get in the spirit of things! What do you mean you want a real reason to do that? Are you some kind of westoid that wants actual incentives for explending your effort? That's heckin selfish and nation collapsing behavior my dude.
Why do the "rugged individualists" get so heated when you ask them why they dont play alone in a private lobby?
Everyone itt except me are shit at the game and touch kids.
>>548428734Westoid white men pay 50% of their salary to the state so some stronk independent feminist single mother can shit out Tyrone's spawn. They are too meek and pussy to even complain about this online otherwise they will be fired from their jobs or even arrested. But yeah, they are all rugged individualist cowboys LMFAO
>>548428734Again, bufftoddlers turned Helldivers 2 into Helldiver (singular). If cooperation were truly the point, there would be balancing and a difficulty tier to incentivize it. But there aren't, therefore I'm free to fuck off and follow my own whims at any given moment. I despise sentimental reasoning in all of its forms and you won't get anywhere trying to make me mad or ashamed. The only way you can win is with a dispassionate argument that proves cooperation is necessary to beat the mission, and there is none, therefore you can only lose.
>>548421475GG Anons
>>548429171>Again, bufftoddlers turned Helldivers 2 into Helldiver (singular).Youre talking about an entirely different conversation. Why is it so difficult for westoids to focus? And if you dont play Helldivers 2 for a challenge or lacks skill checks why are you complaining so much and wont even do self-imposed challenges? >therefore I'm free to fuck off and follow my own whims at any given momentYet you refuse to play in a private lobby. I dont think you want a challenge. I just think you like to pretend you like "challenge" so you can brag to internet strangers.
>>548429032For the same reason grouptroons constantly avoid genuine discussion when a case is made for them to be isolated.
You guys are sure saying a lot of meaningless buzzwords when it's obvious that the true reason the game isn't played by millions of people right now is that Justice isn't in (yet).
>>548428281This never happens.
>>548429681>why are you complainingYou're the one complaining, started here >>548415793I just gave you a straight answer. I'll be happy to give it again, as often as you need to hear it. Eastoids feel bound by social norms, even when they're meaningless, hell, even when they only exist in a sloppy co-op game ruined by reddit. Westerners, being the much smarter breed, know that there's no rational reason to even waste a moment paying attention to what your squad does. The game is way too easy to warrant sticking together and doing tactics. It's far more logical for all four divers to fuck off in opposing directions and speedrun one corner of the map each.
>>548429681Nta but what country are you from?
>>548429874Why do you get offended by people wanting people to play in a group kick you out because you wanted to play by yourself? Are you the guy that goes to parties and just sits in a corner by himself seething at everyone around you?>>548430164Happens all the time.>>548430404>Westerners, being the much smarter breed,Stopped reading there. Youre just a westoid stroking your own ego trying to justify your anti-social behavior.Youve moved the goalpost several times with this. First it was a skill issue, then its a society thing, and now its an intelligence thing. >The game is way too easy to warrant sticking together and doing tacticsIf its too easy then why are you not playing in a private lobby? You probably thing its too easy because you abuse the limited enemy spawn rateAnd answer my question about why you dont play by yourself in a private lobby. You seem to constantly dodge that question.
>"I need supplies!">We're all in a group>Resupply strat is off cooldownWhy do people do this
>>548430839I have no reason to be in a private lobby. I want do do shit according to my own plans, but still be in a squad.>baaaaaaawww I will call you a le bad playerAgain, sentimental arguments do not work on me. You have to be 100% dispassionate.
>>548430404>speedrun one corner of the map each.They must truly be geniuses to find not one but four corners of a fucking circle.
>>548431118There are many, many corners on a circle.
>>548430450Germany.
>>548431048Ah, so you dont have a genuine answer for why you wont play by yourself?So lets recap because I feel were talking in circles, First it was "youre bad" As stated here: >>548416182 Then it was "rugged individualism" As stated here: >>548420784And then this turned to "The game is easy" As stated here: >>548430404So lets put this together, solo players imultaniously join other lobbies because theyre good at the game and need 3 other people but theyre also rugged individualists that need 3 other people and the game is "too easy" so they join other peoples lobbies to abuse the spawn rate limit and refuse to play by themselves and give themselves self-imposed challenges.Is that right? Am I understanding the westoid mind?
>>548431118Alright, quarters then, but you get my meaning. If cooperation were the point, splitting for solos wouldn't be the most effective strategy.>>548431321Germany is WesternSo you're not only an illogical mf, but also self-loathing?
>>548430839I doubt you play the game, my man. You spend more time bitching about players playing the way they want than actually playing the game. And if you do play, I doubt you have anyone to play with because no reasonable person would play with a control freak. You won't even post a lobby.
>>548431560>>548431492
>>548431649Nothing in that post shows you posting a lobby.
>>548430173what is this content in my game?!
>>548431492>so you dont have a genuine answerYes I do, your inferior sentiment-ridden mind just can't accept it.There's no incentive for me to solo a mission. But there's also no incentive to cooperate with my squad. No incentive, no can do. We live in a transactional universe.
>>548431821So you acting like a poorly raised child was you being genuine?
>>548431821>We live in a transactional universe.You cant even play a video game anymore without the mindbroken training of your corpo overlords kicking in.Im so glad Im not you.
>>548431913You still fail to give a dispassionate reason why I should synergize with my squad. It won't clear the mission faster, it won't render extra rewards, none of us will ever encounter a problem that can't be solved by a single diver.>y-you suck at the gamePossibly true, but not a dispassionate reason. Try to come up with something more substantial.
>>548431913You should stop projecting. Just because you lace your posts with civility doesn't mean you are not throwing a tantrum right now.
>warbond almost here>no massive uptick in poorfags SC farming lobbiesi think it's really over this time
>>548432135Good, less poorfags and shitters means the game can begin healing.
>>548432092I dont ever recall saying you suck at the game. So youre just projecting your own insecurities onto me.>doesn't mean you are not throwing a tantrum right now.Read above.So am I right in assuming you dont have an argument anymore and youre just arguing just to argue now, westoid?
Grouptroon isn't posting a lobby because he knows he'll be blacklisted by the thread.
>game has broken in such a way that i cant open chat lol
>>548432397are you in the attachment menu

>>548411489>>548410067You mean Sweden
>>548432473I need to have a good reason to play in a group in a coop game? Were you the kid that played Smash Bros by himself?
>>548432604wtf reset your controls maybe?
>>548432678Yes obviously you should have a good reason for everything you do. Otherwise you run the risk of living the life of an irrational degenerate wallowing in his own filth and being disdained by absolutely everybody. Though I'm suspecting that ship has sailed as far as you're concerned.
>>548432847It just occured to me that the westoid is demanding an explanation why I should tolerate him joining my lobby just to play by himself instead of just playing in a private lobby or simply accepting that he isnt wanted here.The absolute arrogance of the westoid has no bounds.

Don't... Don't everyone always play d10 after unlocking it ? What's the point in playing difficulties ?
>>548438298Difficulties need to be reworked. D10 needs to be rapingly ass-fisting Hell and descend in hardness from there.
>>548438441Go play Havoc 40 in Darktide if thats what you want.
>>548438441How about you play with handicaps instead of ruining the game for everyone else? Just smash all of your fingerbones with a hammer and call it hardmode.
>548438649>548438815Fuck off spamming discord troons Jesus Christ kill yourselves.

Im addicted to interracial porn
>>548441176What does projecting mean in this context? There aren’t shitty DEI marvel characters in Helldivers, it’s just Helldivers in different armor. Eat shit.
>>548439843>number of players that can join you: sub-1000I will never get over the fact that these stupid fucking swiggers made it so that turning off crossplay only lets you play with PC players that also turned their crossplay off.

Speaking of Warhammer 40k can we all agree we need Orks with their big fat green cockz in Helldivers 2? Like if there was one faction we had to rip from 40k, Orkz would be the best fit, yeah?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x-ZQ8tiOhlELike just imagine these guys grunting about how they're going to destroy your leandiver in all her holes.
>>548445090>posts something else
>>548445242You shitpost but orcs are peak rapist fodder. Sadly, DA BOYZ are not for sex. They are for WAGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
>>548445490Just imagine how scary they would be if their spores could take root in the wombs of women until a mini Ork tears his way out like a Chestburster... after all, if Ork spores can grow in dirt, then why not in the most fertile soil of all?And they would need a mechanism for delivering these spores into a womb...

WH40k has even less of a future than Helldivers
>>548446092Imagine her smug face as she bombs a squid patrol. But then she gets down by a Stingray and she just barely survives.

Playing Deathground while I wait for the warbond, it’s like Left 4 Dead but with less action and more horror like having to hack a computer when there’s raptors stalking you.I’d rather be stalked by stalkers im scared shitless rn.
>>548449686Because they enjoy it most when their stratagems and weapons play the game for them.
>>548441490i don't even get why you'd want it offthe game is not that hard.i don't run off solo but at the same time i don't really notice what my teammates are doing 90% of the time since if you're really determined to finish the mission orbital lazer/hellbomb can clear any objective without having to fight for it.only the flag is kinda a filter.
>Caught another 500 on extract idiot with a This Is Democracy kick.Nice. Warbond was worth it just for these moments.
>>548430885to try to communicate that it's neededwhat the fuck do you mean
>>548450652
I miss driving this thing around
>>548450652BuffGOD here: The funny thing is that - other than performance issues - most xbots probably left the game because it was still too hard for them; if my own personal experience dropping in to help them is any indication.The game is balanced such that good players never die (boring, but rewarding) and bad players are repelled by the difficulty. Unfortunately for nerftroons that is what actual balance looks like. NERFTROON IMPOSSIBLE CHALLENGE: Name a decent, well-balanced, but difficult PvE game that good players with 500+ hours still die more than occasionally on. Guess what? it doesn't exist.Women can beat Malenia in Elden Ring with dance pads. Actual PvE difficulty doesn't exist, and if you think it does you're either dogshit or it's random artificial difficulty like the equivalent of the game hitting you with a blue shell from mario kart.
>>548459106>Name a decent, well-balanced, but difficult PvE game that good players with 500+ hours still die more than occasionally on. Guess what? it doesn't exist.escape from tarkov
>>548459106Go play Darktide. But I agree with you in part
>>548459564PvE in tarkov is a joke. You can literally sit in one place and farm them.
>>548459106Nerfchad here, and I tend to agree. At the end of the day, a gameplay formula, designed competently, is going to be designed to be beaten. Because it's a game. Now, you might see emergent difficulty in something like Tetris, where the game keeps getting faster, or in those silly Fallout/Skyrim challenges where a bunch of enemies spawn each day, doubling in number each time.
>>548459564this has to be bait, EFT bots are dumber than rock
>>548459106as a bad player I play on d4-d6 cause I don't have a lot of warbonds unlocked and I'm trying to get good for d8-d10 so I don't bring my team down
>>548458390Same, anyone got an oshaune campaign?
I have hope
>>548459564>the game where faggots just hide in a bush with thermals and an M60 and can onetap anythingThe PvE in tarkov is a joke and it's only decent early on when you don't have shit or have to do shitty quests
Nerftrannies are really just metatrannies.They get pissed at the idea that all weapons can be viable because in their mind "Your weapon determines your player skill" and need a gun to carry them when the reality is a good player can make anything work.
Bufftroons are really just stinky.They get pissed at the idea that they need to shower because in their mind they are not "stinky like pupu" and need to watch Star Trek Voyager
>>548459856You aight nerfboy.>>548459987As someone with all warbonds: Like I said I loved dropping in to help new players who bit off more than they could chew. I do admit the game is more fun when it's less "solved" like any game.Ofc nerfing guns so they "realistically" do no damage so you have to kite everything doesn't make it any harder, despite what the geniuses in sweden thinks.
>>548459989WHAT WILL YOU HAVE AFTER 500 SHIT M.O' S?
>>548460384btw they confirmed no major updated on the second
>>548460541Trvst the plvn, vnon...
>>548460541Wrong.

>>548460660buffniggers run metaslop and constantly decries any attempt at balancing
>>548460660>"Don't like the nerfs? Having trouble? Just bring RR/thermite! Or lower the difficulty because it's obviously too haaaaard for youuu!!!"Game difficulty is when you bring meta weapons or you run away from enemies you can't kill.
>>548460541If they don't shadow drop the stealth 'bond... let's just say... heh... daddy's gonna LOSE IT a little...
>>548460639they said no title card update
I know nothing about this game, is this something I can play solo? I see everyone saying how great it is but I absolutely refuse to interact with people. I ask because I love Destiny 2 but everyone knows the state of that game and I want something close enough.
Nerfs this, buffs that. I just use whatever I find enjoyable.
>>548461087Yeah U can play solo
>>548461139Wouldnt something being rendered ineffective lessen the enjoyment?
>>548461281UMMM NO BECAUSE UR A NIGGER!
>>548461281Not if you don't mind a wee bit of a handicap. A bit of extra challenge.
>>548461087I miss the red war campaign :(
>>548460660Regular liberator actually fucks against bots. I've been using it a lot lately.
>>548461281Sounds like a skill issue. I use weapons that are considered "bad" but because I enjoy them, I learn the strength and weaknesses of each weapon and play around it. Ya know, the way it SHOULD BE.

>>548463115I just played with a console solonigger. He was raging because we completed all the objectives and called the shuttle and he was saying the shuttle would leave without him. Shuttle only leaves when people get in or the time runs out. He was a level 63 consolenigger by the way. So I laughed and called him a retard and he got all mad so we left without him anyways. He's talking about how he soloed a Mega Nest, yeah it's easy to solo when all the spawns are fighting the 3 people who stuck together. I played one more game with him, he teamkilled me twice, and I just laughed and told him he could do what he wanted, I wasn't going to retaliate. At the end I had more kills and he stuck with the team more.
>>548463443>told him he could do what he wanted, I wasn't going to retaliateCuck mentality. You should have blown that consoleniggers head smooth off as soon as his pod hit the ground.
>>548463927Nah I was host and the other two players were also lowbies. He was so proud about soloing a Mega nest, I knew he would be seething about me getting more kills. I could have kicked him at any time but I just kept laughing at him.

Man, this game has zero challenge to it anymore. Its so boring especially the illuminate.
Hello saars, Shams Jorjani here. We have heard the complaints about super credits being harder to get in higher difficulties versus the lower difficulties. This stems from the rare sample spawns in containers displacing super credits and the rare samples themselves replacing containers in points of interest. To remedy this, we will be lowering the spawn weighting of super credits in lower difficulties so that they will spawn at a similar rate to higher difficulties. Now you can play at any difficulty you like and not worry about your super credit collection rate. We will not iterate on this change for at least 8 months. Also, the price of super credits in the store will be going up to due to inflation and rising costs.

>>548459106>Name a decent, well-balanced, but difficult PvE game that good players with 500+ hours still die more than occasionally on.your criteria of what qualifies as "decent, well balanced" excludes any game with a low success rate (like GTFO) because in your eyes a low success rate is proof it isn't well balanced and is instead full of artificial difficulty, exactly as you said.

>>548466847>Heavy arc throwerjust makes me think of the ghost buster backpacks
>>548466976Sounds like you got filtered pretty bad, anon. What were you playing before this? If you're new to the game, I'd recommend playing against bots or bugs first, and on lower difficulties. Once you get the hang of things, then you can move up to the higher difficulties. Playing against squids is also gonna be rough if you're new, because you've got to juggle melee and ranged enemies. Also, try rebinding your stratagdm inputs to the arrow keys. If you do that, you can move while inputting codes, it can be a lifesaver.
>>548466871>especially the illuminateThe illuminate are so bad this almost doesn't even need to be said. Playing d10 squids is like playing d4 bugs/bots. It's fucking crazy how under cooked they are.

They don't have to import spics into China because it is already full of swarthy slaves who will live like rats for the shavings off a coin.Make the game hard(it never was) and I'll consider working as a team, probably just git gud again and solo it anyway. Also if the guy is clearing all the POI then you get more spacebucks and magic rocks. So what's the issue?
Cheatniggers don't want you to know this but Arrowhead recently release a stealth patch that secretly render all of their hack tools ineffective, causing the game to glitch out of it's ass and forcing PC shutdown, a couple of days after the Redacted regiment warbond got leaked. That is why you barely see any leaks lately and why the python commando warbond managed to stay under the radar.

This thing feels like such a disappointment, for something with "Expendable" in the name it sure as hell doesn't feel like it. As memey as the Airburst is, even it gets to fire more than once every full minute, and you can carry all of the shots on your back.

With practice, this can be done very quickly, especially if you often bring the same few favourite stratagems.
>>548469031>tomorrowTomorrow will be the first.
>>548472949We have reached a point where most of these new stratagem are either sidegrades or worse than already existing weapons. Stuff like expendable napalm should be free. Higher effort stratagem like the minigun are justified in costing credits.

retards
>>548472949If swedes took factoring in the design of something by considering how it is to use for the player (i.e. actually playtesting it) people actually would use more than 20% of the stratagems in this game.Unfortunately they're retarded so the thought process is as follows:>ok so EAT but like bigger and fire>alright cool give it the EAT cooldown but because bigger and fire makes it... hmm, twice as strong? give it twice the cooldown byorn.>haha good thinking sven. wouldn't want the game to be pay to win!Thus everything has to be a sidegrade (downgrade) of base game shit because paying for useless shit or paying for good shit that is immediately nerfed into uselessness is acceptable but paid content being better is never acceptable.
Alright /hdg/ what do we think of this idea to organically raise the difficulty:>d8 - 4 lives per player>d9 - 3 lives per player>d10 - 2 lives per playerPotentially add in a system where each player always gets one extra life no matter what. So if you don't die ALL MISSION and your shitter teammates waste all their lives and right at the end you get one-shot you have one extra chance. Perhaps on d11/commando missions you don't get this grace.IMO 5 lives per person on d10 anything but hive bugs is requires you to get so fucking shit on in order to lose a mission it's crazy.

Sweden has been EXTRA lazy as of late though. If you haven't played yet, you have an easy 200 hours of content barring extreme autism grinding like weapons.

Farming super credits is stealing from Arrowhead. You should be buying credits to pay for warbonds to support the devs.

The only people who farm supercredits are poorfags and brownoids. There is a lot of overlap in those groups.
We love giving Arrowhead money now?

>>548485847It's more likely NEETs, they're the only ones with the time to spare to actively farm for enough SC to matter. So still poorfags. Browns too because otherwise they have to buy SC in pesos or whatever shitty third world currency they're forced to convert into american dollars.

>>548487854if you already have the warbond unlocked and just need medals, then playing games will get you some everytime you finish
>>548488414I'm playing on easy and by myself and don't seem to be getting any
>>548487610There's a new warbond soon. Dunno if you're aware. But between these two I'd pick the cowboy bond. Talon is amazing, Deadeye is great, and dynamite is fantastic.
>>548488757Higher difficulties will give more medals. In D10 an op gives 9/12/15
>>548488757they are sometimes at the high value loot points of interest but generally you get the most from completing your daily order, participating in won major orders, and extracting from successful missions.
>>548488847don't really care about the minigun desu, you sold me on the 3 cowboy toys though
>>548487610Everyone says that Experimental Infusion is top tier, but the secret is that you don't actually need to buy the warbond to benefit from it, like 80% of the games you play in someone else will pick it anyways. Plus, Medium Peak Physique isn't actually in the warbond, so there's even less reason to buy it.Borderline Justice is better in most ways. The Talon is a top tier secondary, the Deadeye is hands-down the best marksman rifle in the game, Dynamite is one of only two ways to kill Bile Titan holes without using a red stratagem, and the Hover Pack is good fun.
>>548489209I didn't mention the hover pack because I don't use it much but it has a unique use case of allowing you to reach lots of high structures you otherwise never could.
You know, when you think about it, it's funny just how much speculation there's been about how the minigun will handle and what its stats will be. I mean, there's already the minigun on the Patriot. I expect it'll be much the same, but with lower ergos and less ammo.

Damage and pen scale with charge, with low charge shots killing chargers and tanks frontally with a few shots, while blowing the whole battery could maybe kill a factory strider in one shot but would also cause the rails to explode destroying the weapon and hurting the player.
>>548497826Napalm used to be anti tank back in WW2.Modern tanks are designed to better whitstand napalm though.
>>548496854officially not canonamputee is a shit fetish
>>548498557>cause the rails to explodeor cause the battery to enter thermal runaway
>>548498557this really makes me wonder why they bothered to shove the railgun/stalwart to Support weapon category instead of primary (like HD1)
>>548498671This concludes that Eagle pilots are naturally much smaller than the average personEaglets, you could say
>finish maxing out Breaker, and get partway through Pummeler before deciding to kill some time with a different weapon>haven't even touched the Coyote, let's see how this thing does against squids>fucking murders Voteless in one to two shots, and trivializes Overseers, not even needing a third of a magazine to kill>it feels fucking unfair to use this thing>and this is after the supposed "nerfs"Man, fuck everyone who was whinging, tying their panties in knots and sandblasting their vaginas over this thing getting slightly reduced in effectiveness. The only primary stronger than this that I've used is the fucking Purifier.
why cant i put a choke on the halt or the cookout?
>>548499090The Coyote is still serviceable but that's not the point, the point is swiggers specifically said they didn't touch the thing but then indirectly nerf it by making enemies more resistant against fire DoT and people are fucking tired of them doing shit like that.
>>548499090B-but anon! AH heckin' lied to us!
>>548499315>people are fucking tired of them doing shit like that"People" is a word i would use lightly in this context. These are the same people threw a tantrum because the top difficulty was too hard or because they didn't get a cowboy hat. This fanbase deserve nothing but piss in their face, including you.
>>548499472Top difficulity is to easy, but we need a cowboy hat.
>>548499472Do you have to pretend you just started using the coyote to fucking whine about people who keep shitting on AH for LYING THROUGH THEIR TEETH?
>>548499472>"You will accept the scummy balancing decisions and you will be happy, goyim"How's the weather in Stockholm?
>>548498680That works too. Really just any way to show you really weren’t meant to do it but with at least a juicier payoff for the unsafe shot than the base RG or Epoch>>548498757I’d like if they added some kind of magnetic weapon as a primary eventually. Maybe AP4 with low ergo and mag capacity, around 200 damage but bad durable so it doesn’t completely trivialize hulks.
>>548499668>>548499740>BLOODY BITCH BASTARD BENCHOD ARROWHEAD DO NOT REDEEM THE LIELike i said, this fan base deserves so much scorn.
>>548499315>He wants Arrowhead to actually stick to their wordStop being antisemitic
>>5484999050,01 rupee has been sent to your account
>>548499905Actually, it's JeetKike behavior to go back on your word and lie to people.
I am going to make sure your izzat decreases any time you try to defend Arrowhead, you bloody benchod bastard.
test
>>548498757i'd love a loadout kinetic charge up weapon. i don't care for the purifier or the plasma accelerator
>>548500109I'm going to drink from the Holy River Ganges and die just so my family can get more izzat than you could ever dream of bloody untouchable.
>>548499472>The devs being lying swiggers is fine actuallyimagine being this swedish
>>548498757I don't think they're planning that far ahead just like attachment
>>548499472Fuck you bitch. Wheres my fucking cowboy hat? I dont give a fuck about setting accuracy or whatever weasel words. One job. One fucking job, swiggers.
We are reaching levels of izzat that shouldn't even be possible

>>548499668>>548499959>>548500345You faggots aren't mad that they lied. You're mad your overpowered win button doesn't work anymore. You just have to pretend it's about the lying because otherwise it's obvious you're shitter retards.
>>548500652Is this you? What does you getting juggled like a bitch have to do with cowboy hats?
>>548500503Translated so /hdg/ can understand>Fuck you bloody bitch. is the cowpoke hat there? Chutiya Benchode bloody bitch Arrowhead Bhadwa. YOU ARE HAVING ONE JOB. BLOODY REDEEM IT GANDU RANDI.
>>5485007851 SC has been deposited to your account
>>548500785But it does still work incredibly well, they're genuinely upset that a company "lied" to them like they're in relationship with AH. It pathetic. The fanbase acts like some delusional, entitled whore.
A faction so bad that nobody even bothers stopping a simple level 10 attack
>>548500785>You're mad your overpowered win button doesn't work anymoreCrossbow and Eruptor work just fine though
>>548500946I hear in the first Helldivers the entire player base would throw the campaign and force a restart rather than fighting squids. I guess swiggers never learn.
>>548500942The Alexus era permanently mindbroke the playerbase so any form of reduction in player power is seen as a return to the dark days. This is also why redditors love mindless buffs. Helldivers 2 is anchored in their mind as some tough game emotionally even if they recognize it as easy rationally.Honestly Arrowhead deserves it.
>>548500785>>548500652>>548499905>>548499472>>548499090
>>548500946This will all turn around once Shams drops the cultist patch
>>548500785So, the Coyote was too OP when it took one bullet to set things on fire?So now we make it set things on fire in two bullets? And nerf all flame weapons when they are already broken and weak? The Coyote was never on par with the explosive primaries you dumb shit-for-brains swigger lover but I guess the trannies who do your thinking for you don't really like to talk about that.
>>548501275So is izzat the reason jeets don't want the highest difficulity to be hard?Like they lose izzat for lowering the difficulity?
>>548501372And then what? It's only a subfaction. Everybody is still going to ignore the main squids
>>548500503>adds tip hat emote>an actual hat would be silly>except the commisar hat that doesn't count :^))))explain this
>>548501938A commisar hat is a military thing, a cowboy hat is for gay bull botherers
>>548501938It's not even a commissar hat, it's some parade cap. The actual political officer gets a fucking naruto headband.
>>548502014
ARE YOU READY FOR TOMORROW???
>>548501483Hopefully they'll nerf explosive weapons into the ground tomorrow
>>548502483They wear turbans in the jeet military does that mean we should have those in the game too? Get over it already or go play tranny fortress 2 if you need your hat so badly.
>>548502567Tuesday is patchWarbond is Thursday
>>548502567ready to be disappointed, yeah
>>548502682it can be both
>>548502606They can't do that because then redditors and /hdg/ will throw a tranny tantrum and start review bombing the game again.
>>548502660it makes no sense at all to add a cowboy warbond with no cowboy hats, everyone knows it, swiggers just hate fun
>>548502857can't be worse than the year-long nerftranny tantrum /hdg/ has been enduring ever since the 60-day patch
>>548502857the game is already dead as fuck, it doesn't matter anymore
>>548502939Yeah but that's just one guy on this general. The bufftranny tantrum lasted from release up until the 60 day patch and was much louder and present on every website.
>>548502660>moving the goalpostI accept your concession.
>>548502567mildlyi bet the armor will suck but the minigun will be fun and the chainsaw will be the sleeper overpowered pick. every body will forget about the underbarrel like they did the pineapple grenades
>>548503089>melee weapon>secret sleeper OP pickI will laugh at retards trying to fight chargers or hulks with it only to get instagibbed
>>548502567I want to beat my record of 7,000 rounds fired in a match
>>548502567Have anyone datamined the warbond? I want to see some stats
Surprise there aren't a single SC farming lobby popping up, what happened?
> going from extreme to suicidedamn.this shit is tight desu, im having a blast
>>548474046Isnt it funny how the original version of this image is never posted here? What a bizarre website.
>>548503397It's been like 3 months since the last warbond, everyone here has at least 1k SC for the warbond ready
>>548503397SC arrow mod broke
>>548503397the midly funny lobby guy got was in a car accident after being chased out of /hdg/
>>548503547tourist self-report
>>548503517That is because chinks are trying to hide the fact that their supreme leader is a dysgenic looking bugman subhuman, they are trying to protect his izzat by photoshop the shit out of him with gigachad filters
>>548503502actually you are not having a blast, the game is braindead easy on every difficulty
>>548503517because this entire site is totally compromised and most users are too retarded to notice
>>548503554good, fuck Russians
Fuck's sake I really can't take another 24 hours until the warbond I'm going to have to goon all day to tire myself out so I can fall asleep tonight
>>548503554if that were the case we'd have the dashcam footage by now
>>548503920the dashcam was destroyed in the ensuing blaze
>>548502827Nice
>>548504029russian dashcams are the black boxes of land vehiclesa clear indication of foul play and sabotage
I love popping Hulks with the senator, peak fun
>>548504121probably fell too far down the list and got clipped
>>548503554he got hired by arrowhead. you notice how so soon after modding in the fire dog, he stopped hosting, and then they added it to the game properly?
>>548504363yeah, so fun that hulks are chaff haha
>>548503798the fun im having seems to be in disagreement, sorry!
>>548504427Always has been, hulks is the bot equivalent of Alpha brood commander, war strider is now the bot version of behemoth charger
>>548504427hulks, chargers, and harvesters all fulfill the same niche of semi-heavy enemy that can be killed with loadout weapons with some help (good aim, flanking). there's a reason the hulk vent has 0 armor while the tank vent has 2 armor
sad how all the fun players leave the thread but nerftrannies are eternalI dont even think they sleep
>>548504568Fun is just a buzzword you're using because you can't actually say what you're enjoyingBecause you're not actually enjoying the game, it's too easy for that
>SOMEONE... IS HAVING..... LE FUN??? OH MY SWEEEDENNNNN!!!!!!!!! HELP MEEEEE!!!!!!!!
Helldivers 2 is well balanced, most people only play HD2 though so they don't realise how poorly balanced other games are in comparison. Which is also a praise of how good HD2 is in the PvE genre right now.
>NO YOU CAN'T POSSIBLY BE HAPPY>YOU MUST BE A MISERABLE NIGGER LIKE ME- 9999 izzat
Fun is a buzzword and I have blastfag fatigue.
>>548502567>>548502682>>548502827The fucking in-fucking-game store fucking tells you EXACTLY when the warbond drops. Which is 22 hours and 16 minutes you faglord fucking faggots every FUCKING warbond you shits can't tell the time.
>>548504663Maybe they left because the game has become boring and having good and fun teammates doesn't matter anymore?
Squids are boring

OFFICIAL NON-CHAFF ENEMIES:Alaskan Bull-Worm
HD2 is the only game where every enemy is chaff. Sure you have elite chaff and heavy chaff. But at the end of the day they're still all chaff.
Even the players are chaff. All enemies are chaff. All helldivers are chaff.HD2 is a chaff game.
>>548506835Don't forget Moby-Dick.
>>548507108uhm sweety you can one shot it with the planetary defense cannon
>>548506464Warstriders are on the power level of a pre-nerf hulk basically
>>548507191I wish we got to use that more often.Just imagine smaller emplacement version of it that still requires multiple people to operate it efficiently.
>>548507196And they still ended up getting nerfed lmao.
>>548506464Ah yes, everyone and their mother know the Railgun is the best primary weapon
today we will pretend that a ragdoll spam enemy that's as durable as a tank and as common as a hulk was a good design

>>548515268When will they give the Constitution an actual niche like it had in HD1 instead of just being the worst weapon in the game because they think its funny and realistc?
Is bufftroon and nerftroon shit just new bug and bot fag bait?I don't think it's really that effective bait.People want the game to be harder, and they want weapons that under perform to be more meta. No one really cares past this.
>>548515415When they make killing patrols to stop calls viable. Or they give it decent break points and an okay reload speed. Or just make it deadeye with 5 bullets instead of 8.
>>548515509It's just 2 pajeets trying to bring down each others izzat level, ignore them
>>548515509Swiggers should either increase the number of enemies on the screen or make the AI smarter and shoot at you from afar and not walk at you in a straight line.

>>548516213>>548493878
>>548516389how does that tie into helldivers?
>>548516213Loosely translates to honor, but it's functionally more about saving face and holding vendettas against anyone who shames you. There are no rules of engagement, so nothing is off the table when it comes to enacting revenge.
>>548516557If the buffbrown admits the game was more fun before all the powercreep he will lose izzat

How could they even make squids work at this point?
Alexus was asked whether the super shotgun fires buckshot/slugs/flechette and respended that it fires "4g" which I assume means it's 4 gauge. But we still don't know the actual ammo type
the 60-day patch and its consequences have been disastrous for the Helldivers community

>>548521210OK where are the 300k gormless gamer dads then? Why aren't they playing? They got all the enemy nerfs + weapon buffs they wantedyet the game is dyingexplain, buffstoner
>>548521080It was mostly ok besides thermite buff.
I completely totally 100% legit honestly truthfully no lies work for arrowhead.How would YOU buff the liberator to be able to compete with the purifier?
>>548521562Don't care, Purifier is boring and lame to shoot so I dont use it
>>548521525buffing most of the arsenal to be relevant made the game more fun to lure them inbut you need content to actually keep them playing

>>548522087None of the games you mentioned are difficult and you know it.
>>548522004>GL baked into another pointless ARis not the same as>GL attachment for a gun you might actually wanna use
this warbond is good because it's a proof of concept they finally figured out the >a weapon that's continuously fed from a backpack without the need for reloadand >separate ammo pools for two weapons in a single primarywhich might be an indicator of there being at least one swede capable of tackling the stin*gray
>>548522223It's a problem of incentives. How is the swigger supposed to sell you a grenade launcher attachment for a weapon you already have?
>>548522330this guy gets it. the content itself may or may not be good depending on how much of a pessimistic miserable asshole you are, but the real value is the technical achievements
>>548522087play the game and you will still see retarded pubbies struggle on any difficulty above 4maybe its too easy for your autistic dork souls ass, but its plenty hard enough for the average gamerlistening to people like you leads to flop updates like into the unjust that was dead in the water like a week after it dropped because most of the playerbase doesn't want to play on retarded MUH DIFFICULT mode with endless dragon spam, a random boss raping your ass and the stim tax collectors diggers with no counter besides metamaxxing explosive spam
Place your bets, what's going to be the major drawback of the minigun? The swedes just cant help themselves
>>548522441nobody would mind attachments as warbond items provided they'd actually be fun and make a difference
>>548521562The starter rifle doesn't need to compete directly with a high tier paid warbond gun.That said: the proper answer is attachments.Give it ammo swaps and underslung options.An underslung GL or shotgun as well as the ability to swap to explosive ammo, for example would drastically up the Liberator's power scale.You can just not give these to other more powerful base guns for obvious reasons.It's pretty logical to expect people would make specialty ammo in the most common, standard chamber format wheras specialized formats may not have that.

>>548522537Well, we already know you can't walk while firing it, so there's that. It's probably also going to have pretty bad ergo, so that it doesn't step on the Patriot mech's toes.>>548522624I agree, but I think Arrowhead is leery to do that. Same as selling stratagems through warbonds or selling weapons through the super store. It always hurts most the first time.
>>548522730>full 480 second cooldown despite being an expendable weaponit's not expendable? where did that even come from?
>>548522537Medium pen just like the turret.
>>548522730show us the webms, leaker-sama
>>548522730>expendable weaponYou'll be able to resupply it
>>548522537effective range
>>548521841Very original, now same question but for the defender smg
>>548522862pretty sure arrowhead themselves have said you can't
>>548523249No, they said you CAN.
>>548523249>the reprimand is two-handed>the reprimand is one-handed
>>548523167SMGs as a whole were a mistakecannot be balanced unless you cripple all libs by forcing them into the Judy/DMR mid to long range niche, something no lib user would approve of
>>548523249Even Alexus himself said you can resupply it.The intended team play is someone uses the supply pack on the guy blazing with the minigun.
>>548523303>>548523334>>548523391oh my bad, I swear I read a dev post on the steam forums saying it was purely expendable and you couldn't resupply it
>>548523532actual dev post or community manager post?

>SMG with low RPM and high damage>SMGs with high RPM and low damageSo where's the space MP5 with medium RPM and medium damage?
>>548523743ninja soontrust
>>548523743Sweety thats the Reprimand
>>548523167I think the Defender could be buffed pretty well if it had an option for a slightly higher fire rate, like the Tenderizer
>>548523532>>548523645there are conflicting messages, one is what you mentioned and the other is the alexus post
>>548523873Nah, Reprimand is the space UMP
>>548523645I thought it was a dev but the alzheimer's has probably got to me
>>548522330I think backpack bound support weapons that aren't team reloadable are a shitty precedent. Knowing swedes every future support weapon from here on out will be weighed down by a backpack for no reason, C4 being the first of the bunch which could absolutely function on the support slot alone but just won't, no reasons specified other than swedish (((vision)))
>wanted a crew fed backpack mg designed for teamplay that shreds everything in front of it as long as you're constantly giving it ammo>get a minigun where all you have to do is stand next to it and give them supply boxes sometimes insteadokay i guessif it's medium pen maybe there will be a backpack hmg some day
>>548524074give C4 12 charges minimum and the backpack is now completely justified
>>548522526>play the game and you will still see retarded pubbies struggle on any difficulty above 4Ok, cool. So when are we getting new difficulties for the sweaty players? Kinda dumb that AH is only appealing to one portion of the fanbase. Other co op games don't have this issue because other co op game aren't saddled with the lowest of low IQ player bases.
From the nerf-man himself.You can shut up about it being expendable now.
>>548523979Nah, it has the Slap so its the MP5
>>548524297you do realize it's not exclusive to the mp5, right?
>>548524102Maybe we get a tripod mounted MG that's deployed from a backpack with the 5 key
So when are we getting a BIG backpack flamethrower that has a range greater than 6ft?
>>548524251>they think other players will actually share their supply pack with the minigun user. Not happening. The supply pack is exclusively used by shitters and bufftroons who don't even know how to give supplies.
>>548524195the backpack would still serve no purpose. It'd be dead weight even with 100 reserve charges. team reload weapons are the only ones that ever should come with a backpack. team reloading is pure jank but at least it's a function, real utility.
>>548524297Nah, the Reprimand strikes me as much more a space UMP, since it's chambered in big fat Super .45 ACP and it has that big chunky frontend. If we got a Space MP5, it'd probably be light pen, with much more middle of the road stats.

>>548524631Jolly Anglo anthropologist :> Toodle pip! Bob's your diver!
>>548524385True but if you think of Slaping on guns the first that comes to mind IS the MP5
>>548524631I look like this and say this >>548524730
