Hey, we liberated Seyshel BeachHeh, in six weeks>Previous>>551941392>WHAT IS HELLDIVERS 2?HELLDIVERS 2 is a 2024 crossplay, co-op, squad-based, PvE 3rd person shooter for PC, PS5 and XBox Series X/S where players fight against hordes of alien insects, robots and squids to Spread Democracy™. Players wage war on contested planets, each with a different biome, completing as many objectives as possible in a procedurally generated level while constrained by a time limit. With enough successful missions, a planet can be defended or liberated, and the player base must combine their efforts as much as possible to Liberate™ the galaxy.https://store.steampowered.com/app/553850/HELLDIVERS_2/https://www.playstation.com/en-us/games/helldivers-2/https://www.xbox.com/en-us/games/store/helldivers-2/9mx9wn9dfpgt>WHAT ABOUT THE FIRST HELLDIVERS GAME?Released in 2015 for PC, PS3/4 and PS Vita, the original HELLDIVERS is a shared screen top-down shooter in the same setting.

>>552130907I really enjoy the current state of the game. I like how weapons like the orbital rail cannon help retards take out heavies on lvl4, while they're borderline useless on higher difficulties. I like picking weird stratagems for a new playstyle, even if it means I have to play at a lower difficulty than super helldive. I'm not a metafag, and because I'm not a metafag, the variety in this game is just fantastic.
maintenance mode game.

>>552134552I don't care about the MO, I just really like fighting on Crimsica.
Can someone explain the use-case of the dominator to me like I’m a noob?I still don’t get the niche it fills.
they masscared my boy the hulkwhere is the megahulk with double bratty turrets, no eyeslit, and enough hp+durable to survive multiple EATs?
>>552135051in your dream, nerf tranny
>>552135051Thats just a fleshmob with guns.
>>552134959Huge damage per roundAP3Semi-autoModerately-sized magazine (relative to similar weapons)Zero damage falloffWith the tradeoff of having a still relatively small magazine (especially for a semi-auto weapon) and some of the worst handling of any primary weapon. Basically, it's a skill-based headhunter weapon, if you're good at aiming and can play around the low ergo you can instantly kill most non-heavy enemies in the game with a single shot at any range, but if you're bad at aiming you'll end up getting fucked by the small magazine size.
>>552136084Fleshmobs are worthless. Boring, not threatening.
>>552135051
>>552136319>yeet an EAT or Commando or QC into the cannon>shoot the ap3 guns a handful of times with your favorite medpen gun>ignore>that is if you can even fire anything at it before it dies to 5 overtuned area denial reds or dropship crash lmao worthless bitch enemy

Dig dig diver
>>552136201>Fleshmobs are worthl-ACK!!!
>>552137532there are weapons that can smash a mob in a bit over a second
Every time you think player cooperation has hit a new low they still manage to surprise.Either that or everyone playing this game is retarded and can't read.
Which way hellbung?
>>552135051>"I need a poorly designed and uninteractive enemy on the bot front that forces you to bring RR, SPEAR or Ultimatum because I'm braindead and I don't understand what makes it challenging in a fun and engaging way"
>>552139364Not only bring, but also make economic use of them, incentivize your mates to help you sustain your fire and cover your ass, making the game more interactive, cooperative, and less braindead. Besides, weak points would still exist, just not the AMR one tap kind.
that was the war strider at one point and no one liked it
>>552139649If you genuinely think you'd need someone to cover you to kill an enemy like that, even if it came in groups of 10 or 20 at a time, you are so bad at the game it's unreal.No, it wouldn't force cooperation, ammo economy or anything, it would just add a poorly designed enemy to the game that loadout checks you and can oneshot you with random headshots.It would also be outran by faggots that hate killing enemies.
>>552140161Ok... but have you considered that if they massively nerfed every dog, every sentry, every primary and secondary, then it would be true?! smug basedjak dot png
>>552134838>nutteringgms
>>552138465there are 3 groups of players in this game - bot players, bug players and squid players. are you new?

>>552138465oh no my 0 medal reward! I should really stop playing my favorite faction or I will lose that epic reward!!
Man there is something extremely satisfying when you really dial in a loadout for a certain playstyle. I switched to light armor for the first time and it's orgasmic to be so mobile since it feels like half of this game is just running around, but I had to make a few changes to how I play.>Eruptor>Machine pistol (don't have better)>Thermite grenades>Eagle Strafing>Commando>Personal shield>EAT/Rocket turret/500lb eagle/terminator mechBeen clearing D8 bots with solid contribution (not just getting carried).
>>552148846
Just spoke to Shams. He confirmed that there will be a warbond trailer, APC and Squid update tomorrow. You're welcome.
Man, outside of Major Orders it feels like bots are the default faction>Bugs almost never do anything, when they do the bot divers quickly redeploy with the DSS to push them back to the rim>Squids are running around but have such low resistance values they feels like a "deal with it later" problem, plus they're boring>Whenever there isn't an active order the DSS is always at the bot front helping push it backJust look at the Christmas offensive. DSS quickly went to clear up the bug front and then hasn't left the bot front for a week. This really feels like a war against the bots while we occasionally clean up bug and squid remnants.>>552131043I've been having fun getting new friends into the game. Running meme loadouts at lower difficulties while they unlock stuff to reach 10 is a blast
>>552150004i don't get it
>>552023123>underbarrel flamercould be cool
good solo loadout for rupture bugs? purifier felt terrible cuz I got an alpha commander spam seed and so there were warriors up my ass 24/7 and I need a weapon that doesn't blow me up
Earth has just updated, and the Apocalypse is soon.
>>552140161Stop projecting your badness at the game on me BuffJeet it's not my fault your family lost izzat on Oshaune.
>>552152278Scorcher is amazing against them, run it with a dog to help with chaff
>>552150206Historically it's always been the bug front that hogs resources. It just so happens that during the current MO, most of the bugshitters have been in containment on Heeth and thus aren't interfering in the Galactic War.
>>552153086They should put a recon campaign on Omicron when this event is over.
>>552152278You do know that the Purifier has a rapid-fire mode that doesn't result in a huge splash radius, right?
>>552152496I'm still running older client, how are the updates?
This year, for sure.
>>552136084>a fleshmob with gunsarrowhead please allow fleshmobs to pick up and wield helldiver weapons off the ground
>>552154593that would be fun, request denied. t. Sweden
>>552154189Everything got buffed
>anything squid related>fun
>>552154313GET A JOB
>>552138465They have forced the same missions on us for 2 weeks. No one cares at this point. The way MOs.work with the game master shit is terrible and everyone knows we can't make any real progress unless a retarded swede desires it.
>>552138465I saw all the planets targeted are recon campaigns and decided to ignore it on day 1. It's just a swedish trick to stall any progress while they are all out of office and can't fuck with the numbers and I wish everyone ignored this to signal them to fuck off.But then again, the average helldiver is a drooling retard so he will never catch on.
>>552156495>make progressSon, you're literally playing the wrong fucking game for that.
>>552156753I'm not playing for progress and go wherever I feel like. I'm simply stating why no one cares about MOs.
>sniper botsHow would they work? How SHOULD they work?
>>552156160Illuminate are only fun when they manage to deploy their entire roster against you>Zombies swarming you>Fleshmobs constantly forcing you to move>Staff overseers trying to close the gap and beat you to death>Jetpack overseers forcing you to seek cover and distract you>Mortar overseers forcing you to move>Stingrays forcing you to move>Tripods forming hardpoints in the enemy line>Spotters lurking about, forcing you to focus them or else more enemies drop inWhen they're all present you are constantly moving, dodging, changing target priority and doing everything you can to avoid being swarmed while taking out their ranged gunline.Remove any one element and they are piss easy
>>552141441>>552142010>>552142876>>552145724nta but aren't these "recon planets" which literally don't matter?i like shooting robots too but there is a planet called tarsh which is also a good place to shoot robots right now, why not leave the bug shooters to it i understand not caring but i don't understand slipping around on an ice planet when you could be doing a space vietnam instead(PS the actual reason is because bots were ahead of bugs earlier you dummies, they're tied because it's been pretty much 50/50 all along)
>>552157486Infantry unit. Small red line appears as their charge their sniper shot, you have less than a second to dodge. One shot kills light and medium armor, extra padding or heavy armor takes two hits.Basically treat them like rocket launcher infantry at launch. A light unit that can one-shot you from across the map, but slightly telegraphed
>>552157486going the easy route of a red laser you see that tracks you before stopping and shootingavoid laser when it stops, avoid getting hit
>>552156939People do care about the MOs in that they offer players a mid-term goal to aim towards in order to get medals and sometimes other types of unlocks. To think that "progress" can be made in what is literally intended to be a forever war is stupid as all hell.>>552157486Durability between a Trooper and DevastatorYou can spot them with scope flashesTheir shots are about as strong as Bunker Turrets, and will ragdoll you if you're hit, but they can only fire one shot at a timeThey will displace after a few shots, maybe even have active camouflage to help make them harder to track downThey spawn from specialized Fabricators inside of Outposts, which will cause them to randomly spawn within about 300-400 meters of said Fabricator
>>552157573the minor order requires you to be in those planets for the kills to count, literally just read it
>>552157486guerilla bots that roam solo and have the ability to sprint, pick off helldivers from inside bushes, and throw bot strategem balls at you
>>552158123yes dipshit, my point was that clearly the players playing there do care about the minor order. I was replying to anons saying it's just because of their preferred faction which is clearly wrong because there are at least two actual liberations going on as an alternative. the actual reason they haven't split off is because there hasn't been a clear leader for most of it.(however it was pretty obvious it wasn't going to hit the deadline super early, so the original anon's general point about players being dumb stands regardless desu)
Another year with incomplete wip faction
>>552159032when's the last time we got a new red strat?
>>552160212We just got some fucking CHUD
Less automatons, more cyborgs, I want to see flesh merged with steel, I want to see hulking massive cyborg chicks with star pasties, I want hulking muscular cyborg chicks that can just grab me and lift me up with ease
whats the consensus on the minigun? having tested it on squids id say it sucks ass.
Betcha all we're getting at the end of this MO is the recycled fireworks display
>>552158049>they offer players a mid-term goalExcept, they don't. Time and time again, it's been proven that the success or failure of MOs is based entirely on what the Swedes feel like in the moment.
>>552161430It's a fun meme that nerf trannies will never let be good (heavy pen)
>>552161430are you talking about the maxigun or the variable
>>552161430Best on bugs, as long as you bring something for chargers and bile titans
>>552161430It's great on squids and bugs, but it needs more ammo.
>>552136550Why do you assume the same wouldn't happen to the super hulk?
>>552161430>bad on squidsSounds like a severe skill issue on your part.
>>552161430The consensus is that it's a medium pen support weapon
>>552162368i think the ammo is the main downside, its ridiculous to carry a backpack for fucking 50 bullets more than med mg when resupply pack gets you full ammo back x4.
>>552136550>>ignorei wonder where all these devastators keep coming from
>>552162368>M-1000>750 rounds
>>552162828>conveniently forgetting that the backpack also autoloads the gun for you without you ever having to lift a finger
>>552163502>Conversely forgetting that the supply pack also gives you eight hits of meth
bufftroons still would have complained about the maxigun had it been released with heavy pen btw, they're never satiated
>>552163689>taking damage and needing to healSkill issue.
>dude why even bother using THIS fun option when this OTHER option existshate you niggers like you wouldn't believe
>>552163864Who said they're for me? I just like drugging people up without their consent like P Diddy.
>>552163926Losing is bad, wrong options lead to losing and losing leads to me crashing out.You are playing the game wrong and I am right.
>>552160689like what dickhead? some temporary 120 or somebullshit sprinkled with an ems or some bullshit?
>>552164347>losingSounds like a you problem.
>>552163926Stick to the weekly meta or get kicked, simple as that.
>>552164347>baby needs his binky to win not my fault pal
>>552164385They worked very hard to make those ungrateful chud, devs deserve a good holiday break too.
>Arm hellbomb>host walks into it and dies>get kickedtrue story
>hate this game>hate the devs>hate its fanstrvke
>>552167971How are 3 objective opinions a truth nuke, you retarded zoomer?
>>552168626Hatred for swedes, arrowhead, helldivers 2 and retards defending any of the former is objectively correct, not an opinion.
>>552165196Always point out the Hellbomb prior to pushing the buttons.
hover pack + flamethrower is some of the most fun ive had
>>552156716>It's just a swedish trick to stall any progressIt actually increases it thoughbiet, as divers on recon planets don't count to the modifier.
>>552161516that's all we deserve with your bad attitude
>>552169065frfr
Why are we still here?
>>552170470Just for supper.
>go to level incendiary breaker since I haven't used it since levels were introduced>try it on squids>can't kill hoverseers with it at all, even after their armor nerfI see why so many normies hate them now.
>>552171545>why is my shotgun bad against a mid range, fast moving enemyhm
>>552171618It's not a matter of hitting them, it's that the shots don't deal damage through their ablative armor, it takes close to a full drum to drop them at 5 feet
>>552171545They nerfed the fuck outta it, not to mention it sucks if you're not host..
>>552171759Hm, seems you should take another weapon to compliment the shotgun's weakness there. I mean, only a retard would expect one gun to counter everything
>>552161430it's like C tier at best. way too little ammo, shit handeling, high recoil, takes up your backpack slot and comes with the brutal downside of rooting you place while firing and also gets fucked in the anti-chaff role by enemy corpses blocking your shots while the enemy can just phase through the dead.Sure you can make it work by hoarding resupplys and/or having a supply pack monkey for ammo and watching your back, but there's honestly no reason to use it even over the MMG other than the cool factor inherent to a minigun.
>>552172647I brought a revolver so I had an option for them, but it feels weaker than any other shotgun against them by far.
>>552164536>Stick to melee or get kicked, simple as that.
>>552171618Logically a shotgun should be good against flying enemies since you use shotguns to hunt flying animals, but game devs don't understand how shotguns work..
I tried using the one true flag against a bile titan and it killed me, wtf is this shit game's balance
>>552173817they do work fine on the actual bugbirds in the gamei have never shot skeet using ayys with jetpacks so i can't really compare that
>>552161430It's fun in bugs and squids. But because heavies are shit out constantly at D10 you're forced to bring thermite and AT sentries to be of use.
>>552172701if you position yourself higher than the chaff, this mitigates the issue of corpses bodyblocking unless they're point blank. Position yourself as if you're a sentry that you don't want destroyed in 3 seconds.
>>552173817Yeah, I hunt flying whales and dragons all the time IRL with my shotgun, his game is just unrealistic how the weapons are balanced.
Happy New years. Hopefully next year is without all the shit from this year.
>>552161276>Helldiver, there have been undemocratic reports of innocent male civilians being captured by the Automaton forces. What makes this action more questionable is that they're being directly transported to Cyberstan itself. Only Lady Liberty can imagine what horrors those wretched Cyborgs have in store for our innocent votes.
Any unorthodox strategies to take down factory striders? can a gatling barrage hit the vents at the top or something like that? I've run underneath them many times with a auto cannon or amr to hit their belly but if anyone knows other ways I'd like to hear it
>>552176779I once got it with the Arc Thrower, has the added bonus of slaughtering all the spawned devastators. Arc Thrower is decent into bots, you just need shield backpack since you have to stand in the open so long to get value
>>552176779throw tesla tower on top of it. (don't) trust me.
>>5521767791-2 Thermite on its stomach is a guaranteed kill.
>>552176779Double Freedom because of its disgustingly high durable damage ratio. Remember to focus on just one of the doors, they have separate health bars.
>>552176779crisper to the belly ( •̀ ω •́ )
>>552161430>whats the consensus on the minigun? It turns you into a redployable gatling sentry that is hopefully smart enough not waste it's ammo trying to shoot through a rock and not to try and shoot through your teammates. Basically a new way to sentry max.Personally from a meta perspective I think the sound of that gun going off is a morale booster. I remember one Platinum heist mission there were two guys with maxi guns backed up by other sentry's going ham on the bots as I was carrying the platinum and it felt damn good..A gatling sentry that you can walk in front of and trust to shoot over your head and not through your head is a damn fine feeling.
>>552177789>Remember to focus on just one of the doors, they have separate health bars.Huh, the more you know...
>>552176779crisper to the cock ( •̀ ω •́ )
>>552177789This is interesting, I didn't know that about the doors. Thanks anon

>>552178368striders have cocks (´･ω･`)?
>>552178368striders are female, chud. they clearly have roastie flaps and give birth
>>552174358>Forced to bring thermiteAs opposed to bringing, what?Most grenades are absolute trash by comparison. The only other grenades I take are gas and sparklers.
I thought the chinks were supposed to cheat this MO to victory...
>>552179378smoke grenades are decent for giving yourself cover at a moment's notice, which is nice when you want to reposition

>>552148846Can I get some feedback on this loadout?
>>5521890173 crutches and chicken armor is a pretty good setup for a newfriend.
>>552161430Its not op so that means its shit according to redditors and /hdg/.
>>552172701>Not being able to move is a downside>I waste my ammo therefore it has less ammo than MMG (750 vs 175x4 w/ slow reloads)Have you actually used any of the MGs while moving, like, at all?The stalwart is dogshit at it due to being lightpen requiring you to shoot for weakpoints and only makes it even on ammo economy at equal amount of rounds to the maxigun on full refill, MMG requires at least a degree of accuracy else you piss into the wind even with a slower firerate and has 50 less rounds and you can only really reload up to 525 rounds from a supply pack as opposed to the full 750. HMG is stuck with 300 rounds total and 200 round resupplies only.Stop regurgitating the same bullshit every time and learn to properly utilize weapons as specific tools for specific situations. It's not going to kill tanks, it's a handheld minigun. It kills shit chaff very quickly and does this very well. It has shitloads of ammo for this specific task and an equally staggering firerate that you can adjust by simply not holding the button into a wall like a monkey.
>>552148846>>552189017If you're comfortable with something as low ergo as Eruptor, try out the different DMRs. For me it's DCS. Consider Quasar for efficient strategic decimation of bot defenses+heavies from safe distances, likely what you're using Commando for. As for sidearms I really like Verdict, and there are many even better ones, but the premium sidearm to have vs bots is Talon from Borderline Justice. Best laser gun in the game, comes highly recommended. All your other choices are solid. 120mm HE barrage is another very flexible stratagem worth your look. Nice to choke bot drops and destroy detectors+jammers.
>>552180407>smoke grenades are decent for giving yourself cover at a moment's notice, which is nice when you want to repositionI did a D10 back to basics run using "grunt leve"l Helldiver gear. Basic tactical armor, liberator, redeemer, etc.When it came to grenades though I went with smokes for that exact reason.There's no point in frag and hi-ex grenades, on D10. You don't have enough of them to do anything really useful, and they don't do enough damage to kill anything you can't kill with your liberator or wouldn't be better off using dedicated anti-tank against.Actually worked out well.
>>552167971Why are you here? You do have people to socialize with outside of this place, yes? Cuz it would really be sad and pathetic if you didnt.
>>552184635can i have the artist? those gifs are really nice
>>552148846>>552189017Eruptor is good and is enough for any medium enemy so that you can run AT as your support.i would limit it to just one expendable AT tho and you can run offensive in other slots and rely on your teammates to drop you other supports. Makes for more interesting match when i get something different>personal shield Drop this get something useful you should be using cover anyway>strafeTop tier cant go wrong with it in any situationHaving one strategem that can destroy eye of sauron would be nice.
>>552189515Which ones are considered the crutches? Out of curiosity>>552189923>>552190679I like the eruptor because my controller's stick drift is getting worse and the explosive ability means even if my aim gets fucked by that I still do something (yes this is the state of your average consolefag teammate). I missed the black friday sale on controllers and refuse to pay full price for one. I like the Diligence a lot but would use it more if I were on PC. The aim assist with a controller in this game is very light. Same reason I don't enjoy the quasar as much as Commando/EAT. I'm very close to unlocking the Verdict and Purifier which are my next big upgrades/things to try.
>>552190978Not that anon but>best explosive primary>AT grenades>eagle strafeProbably safe bet he's upset you're having fun.
>>552190978>>552191242Actually the third crutch was the personal shield
>>552190978>>552191242not at all upset lol the only thing that matters to me is for you to run whatever the fuck you find fun as long as its not griefing others. Also eagle strafe warzone sound mod is KINO.>purifierAnother top tier weapon for bots it has insane ammo economy and deals with mediums easy. Only thing it does not have is scope wich i like on eruptor.
I only run shield gen pack on bots.

Happy new year from the administrative center 02 timezone you fucking nerds. Have a good night and death to the console nigs
>>552176242>no ears >white sclera THIS IS A SQUID SPY!
I like the new cape.
I can't find a primary that really scratches that itch. A workhorse, not great at anything, but good/decent in nearly every situation. Any recommendations?
>>552198679It's pretty nice, wish it went with more sets though.
>>552192398imagine being alone playing videogames and shitposting in a chinese cartoon forum on new year, haha

>>552199038LibPen is the only thing you'll ever need.
>>552198679It's very pretty, but the problem is that there aren't many sets that go with this particular shade of red.

>>552208954Looks stupid. Is that even the symbol for fire?
>>552208954too bad they made the SMGs feel like absolute shit to use, it's like I'm shooting a BB gun
>>552209160No that's clearly a terminid, its to a subliminal message to players reminding them their about to filled with terminid eggs.
>>552209490>smg range dropoff raped them>new smg will have shitty ergo alongside that probablyThis shit is already dead on arrival months before release.
>>552209691I think the ergo is going to be fine given it's an SMG but it's the fucking slow ass bullets and drag that did it for me, and that on top of having a gimmick flamethrower that probably don't work half of the time due to DoT bug / being certain distance away from the host
>>552208954>double sidearm primarybotched implementation and prenerfs aside, I like this because it enables the use of meme utility secondaries or the Ultimatum as emergency AT while using whatever support you like. swedes should still be executed for not making underbarrels their own selectable thing yet.
>>552152278I've had good success with the Double Freedom, aside from that I'm biased towards the Punisher Plasma even though you don't want explosive weapons. Coyote is also a good Swiss Army rifle.
>>552130907The game has started crashing every time I launch it and try to progress past the intro scene.I'm running the [prod_slim] beta version on Steam. Should I disable it? No mods either.
>>552208954Under barrel weapons should be a weapon customization feature instead of an entire dedicated gun. Give me the option of sticking a nade launcher or a flamethrower on the lib or adjudicator or whatever at the cost of shit ergo or a smaller mag size.
>>552213204You did verify steam files, yes?
Backpack ideas:Weapon Sling - allows carrying two support weapons.Second Holster - helldiver now carries a second sidearm and dual wields. Now the pistol armor has a use.
>>552213204Happened to me too, switched back to the 150gb version and the game is stable again
>>552213204I've only had one crash since making the switch to slim and it was a driver timeout (AyyMD lol)
>>552213332Yeah, already did.Told me 1 File was wrong and supposedly fixed it, but nothing has changed and still crashes.>>552213553Same. Haven't crashed once since changing to Slim, but I tried to play to day and I crash every time.>>552213457Gonna have to try.

https://youtu.be/gnNzrqQQ87gThis video reminded me of how in Red Orchestra 2 riflemen could resupply machinegunners. It inspired me to try the 3 machineguns with a supply pack. Here's my verdict with Siege-Ready armor:>StalwartHas so many magazines and so many rounds per mag that the supply pack honestly feels unnecessary. The lack of AT means you will be relying on your teammates or bringing your own EATs or something with you.>Machine GunLess mags and rounds per mag means you're more likely to use your supply pack, but you can still very easily get away with not bringing one. Med pen and much better controllability than the HMG means it's more fun and effective to unload into hordes of enemies. Once again, the lack of AT means you will be relying on your teammates or bringing your own EATs or something with you.>HMGEven less mags and rounds per mag means you'll be reloading constantly and your supply pack will be emptied in no time, even with siege-ready. Recoil is really obnoxious, makes me wish I brought Fortified armor instead.Using it against heavies feels bad and each one will use an entire magazine, and that's assuming all of your shots hit their weakpoints, which they may not. Unloading an entire magazine into a heavy and them not dying and being visibly utterly unaffected makes my cheeks burn with embarrassment imagining what my squadmates are thinking. A single humble EAT could've effortlessly done what I couldn't.>SummaryStalwart by default has so much dakka supply pack is unnecessary.MG doesn't require supply pack but is fun with it.HMG is a greedy fat fuck and will devour your supply packs. The video idea of an entire team bringing supply packs makes sense for this gluttonous and underwhelming pig.I rarely use backpacks but I liked being able to resupply my teammates. You can see a teammate's maxigun ammo on the hud and resupply them as needed. Fuckhead will NEVER fix that hud bug that says teammates are out of ammo when they aren't.

>>552229865You can do that with any number of reds. Ultimatum is fine in a load out you don't really need a sidearm so it's just a bonus. But I get far more out of senator and grenade. I like bushwacker for preds and crisper can be fun for torching shit behind you as you run away.

>>552244008Have you considered being patient and not spoiling things months in advance?
>>552244325i am satisfied with the current balance of the game and exist in a state of perfect zen
The games balance is fine. If you need more then youre a shitter that gets carried by his guns.
>>552244838The game is too easy, so you're wrong.
>>552243608No refunds!
>>552244838agreed but can you ask her to hold still please
>>552230713absolutely beautiful,thank you anon
>>552244875>Meta troon that plays with only meta weapons and never hosts and solotroons says the game is easy :OOOOOO
>>552245257If meta weapons make the game too easy, then the game's balance isn't fine. You didn't really think that through, did you?
>>552242297even the fucking AMR doesnt do shit to it>>552242682>not walking into very obvious immobile hazardbullshit, city tiles, the non mega city ones, absolutely have them tucked around blind corners. they dont have enough glow or audible presence to give ample warning. I've been grinding RD-4 for the past month and eventually got to the point I would know by the section of buildings whether or not I need to speed through the zone or early apex the corner to aim for the sneaky tower that would assuredly get off 2 or 3 pulses before I can exit its range.
>>552245315literally just stop using meta weapons?
>>552245593>I have developed the ability to not walk into the very obvious immobile hazardhappy for you anon
>>552245647When did I ever say that I used meta weapons? You're just making up shit in your own head in order to avoid making any form of real argument.Again, whether or not any given person chooses to use the meta weapons does not suddenly mean that the game's balance is fine, when said weapons are clearly powerful enough for you sperg out about them being strong.You really need to learn how to rub those two braincells together, instead of just "pretending" to be retarded.
Remember the last time Arrowhead did a big stats post and we found out that the player count is so low on Illuminate worlds because they keep impaling themselves on cactuses and falling down open manholes IRL
>>552245315>If meta weapons make the game too easy, then the game's balance isn't fine.Thats literally what meta builds are supposed to do, retard.
>>552245767forgot to mention usage of FRV because FUCK the movement speed and no option for auto sprint in this game especially when 3 dozen elevated overseers are auto bursting 200 meters away while doing 70kmh in your direction until you look at them then they yeet a nade in your path and multiple stingrays paint the ground with unlimited plasma bullshit every 8 seconds as the useless ass SAM site wastes its ammo shooting too early or too late oh so conveniently
>>552246108go play in a private lobby
>>552246413Then the game's balance isn't fine. Is one sentence too difficult for you?
>>552246551Meta builds are literally about minmaxing to make the game easier. How would you feel if you didnt have breakfast this morning?
>>552246551>American-tier reading comprehension -Izzat
>>552246665I would feel hungry. Is that the smartest thing you can say in response to a very simple observation about the game's balance?And again, I never once said that I even use meta weapons, only that the fact that a meta can be developed to make the game easier means the game is not properly balanced. Again, one sentence is too difficult for you.

This brain dead nigger is probably mad he got his kills stolen by a metaGOD, he probably mad the metaGOD just aim his noob tube at a war strider and instant delete it from existence instead of dancing around like a retard trying to hit it's weakspot like a cucked faggot so he decided to dedicated his whole life to going against people using meta weapons.
>>552247420But wouldn't the power source make a better weapon as a bomb than whatever piss ray it shoots out?

>>552247959BJ is worth it just for the Talon and Dynamite. Excellent for all factions. PP is mostly sidegrades for starter warbond weapons.
>>552248105They're children, dude. We have a lot more of them now. They have emotional reactions to things and can't articulate a response to disagreement so they reflexively project this behaviour onto others, preemptively, rather than risk actual discussion. Because they can't riddle their way out of such a hopeless mind-maze, so how could anyone else?It's like how the first reaction of a crackhead is to accuse other people of being a crackhead even when it makes no sense. Fat people's go-to is accusing people of being fat. I'm sure you've noticed.People who aren't fatbrained crackheads however usually make this connection shortly after puberty and realise how transparent it is. But you can't tell them because of the obvious issues with trying to hand reason to an idiot.

>>552218161New to PCs huh? Remember this lesson well, when something just breaks for no reason, always turn it off and on again
>>552257370Do MMOtrannies really
>>552256850>Piercing weapons can have more reachstun lance already has more range than the others>Bladed weapons can sweep multiple close targetsthey already do, the saber is very good at dealing with voteless hordes precisely because it hits multiple of them at the same time>Blunt/Axe weapons can have better performance vs. durable good suggestion, as it stands all melee weapons have a 50% durable damage ratio (the saber has a 52% ratio only because 50% would make it do 62.5 durable damage instead of a nice 65)Here's some more:They should be able to hit multiple body parts in one swing/poke instead of only applying damage onceThe hitboxes should extend beyond their physical model, both distance and width. This is already the case with the rifle butt/generic melee with a non-melee weapon equippedStun lance/baton) should not have knockback, only their stun effect. Before anyone gets their panties in a twist this is actually a case where removing a capability is actually an improvement to the weapon. You don't need both knockback and stun, and in fact the knockback only makes it harder to get the stun off and keep the stun on them as it shoves the target outside of melee range depending on what you're hitting. Having to chase after brood commanders and hive guard that get knocked away 15 feet every time you hit them is a fucking pain in the ass and they often recover by the time you do get to them. When they made the chainsaw they were actually very smart about giving it a stun effect instead of huge knockback, because it keeps the target in place for it to continue dealing damage to it.

>>552274249did u make it yet
>>552161430It's cool but it's shit. It's best used against squids where weapon choice doesn't matter. On bugs or bots you'll need Heavy Pen/AT to carry its useless ass.It's even worse on bots since that whole faction revolves around high AP and precision, both of which the midigun lacks. Really sucks absolute ass shit when you drop into a bot front with War Strider seed and then you're spending most of the mission just running and cowering and kneeling at the mercy of your teammates/thermites/AT strat/EAT/Commando cooldowns.
>>552273512500 is a staple and on RD-4 the increased call in modifier is active 9/10 times so by the time that shit comes in it's too late to be advantageous. Ulti' just works albeit still needs more ammo and faster reload by default.

My favorite part of this game is when you dive somewhere and you end up stuck inside invisible air and the only way to unstuck yourself is to get ragdolled by something that won't kill you, or when you get ragdolled by something and then you end up stuck somewhere and the only way to unstuck yourself is to get ragdolled by something that won't kill you, or when you try to climb something and then end up stuck and the only way to unstuck yourself is to get ragdolled by something that won't kill you, or when you

>>552169079The hellbomb is on my back. If you see me running past enemies to the objective, run because I’m about to democracy akbar myself
>>552284487You still mark it after taking it off. If only for your own benefit so that you can know when you're out of the kill radius.
>>552288265you should have a feeling for hellbomb range, if you dont its your problem
>>552288878Sometimes it's out of your control, such as if you get ragdolled shortly after activating it or if you somehow lose track of where it dropped amid the chaos, especially if you don't drop it on flat ground and it starts rolling down a slope.

The exact same thing is also happening on Kerth Secundus and Vernen Wells, despite there being at least an even half-dozen isolation opportunities on the map right now (Charbal, Vega Bay, Yed Prior + Blistica, RD-4, Zea Rugosia, Irulta) that could net multiple free planets for minimal effort.

Alright chuds. I hope you enjoyed liberating all those planets during the holiday major order, but you know what time it is now. I get to spam high level planet defenses to undo all the effort you spent weeks on in a matter of 2 or 3 days. Remember: I hate all of you and I view the galactic war as You vs. Me and not as a means of creating player enjoyment. If I have to cheat to win I absolutely will and I love when you all bitch and moan about it. Fuck you for playing this game.
>>552325432newfag here, why would I ever care about liberating planets? do you unlock stratagems like in hd1 that way?
>>552325432Thank you for your service
552324237Buy an ad.>>552324924They're cravens and hypocrites. They know their YT channels can't survive without them doing HD2 content, so they're more than willing to shirk on their "principles" if it means ad revenue instead of putting in the effort to cultivate a new viewer base or finding a real job.

>>552325508Liberating is largely pointless and all about role-playing. The problem is that Arrowhead sold this game as a live service game with a curated galactic war but the galactic is awful and pointless. Swedish incompetence as usual.

>>552332198The problem is that they look nothing like the laser guns already in the game.

>>552333060>>552333180>>552333480>lasguns are just reskins of regular laser weaponswould this be the worst case scenario?
>>552334293So they're basically plasma weapons without the AoE.
>>552334373do you want them to add a laser damage component in addition to normal and durable, or something?
>>552334706idc honestly, I just wanted to know how much of an actual difference there was between the bots red lasers and our yellow lasers
>>552328190>>552332198Imperial Guard are close enough (fuck they're more Helldiver than the fucking Viper Commandos warbond) but space marines would be stupid.There's other shit like melta guns which would actually fill a niche, and fitting shit like toxic needle snipers, eviscerator melee/snare mines/various stubber guns and shit (also autocannons etc which are already covered) but you never really associate with beakies.Stuff like carapace armour and misc equipment like camo cloaks could also be cool.
>>552334706There already is a laser damage typeThe Sickle and Talon do ballistic damage though.

>>552336742I dislike how the SM games just made them shotguns. Much less impressive than the white-hot death beam they are in other media. It should be mostly pinpoint but with extremely aggressive damage falloff. Think of it like a laser cannon that shoots an extremely high DPS and AP beam for a quarter-second, then has to cool down for a few seconds, then also has to reload every ~4 shots or so.

>>552364559Is sample extricator that good? It would be nice to farm extra samples in actually fun difficulties, but it seems like you're crippling your team by giving up on a meta booster especially because i pub and can't trust people to brng the essentials like run and extra supplies.
>>552365515Pilestedt actually said that
>>552365992there's really only 3 boosters that are auto-includes on any mission but even then they're not strictly 100% required to do well

QRD on the last few weeks, have I missed anything noteworthy? Are there any new additions to the game and has the war advanced in any meaningful direction? I took a break from playing and posting a few days after the lava planet update dropped.

>>552368107Slightly less damage in exchange it defaults to having a bayonet on it, has better recoil control and defaults to a 60 round mag to represent a fully upgraded one from Helldivers 1(fully upgraded in 1 had 45 but normal already has that so giving it that extension). Has a unique effect where the last few shots in a mag are tracer rounds like in HD1.

>>552377895but i want to use exclusively light weapons against the heavy gear factionand i want to run whatever i want without looking at or supporting my team in any wayonly being able to do that with two out of the three factions in the game is just inexcusable, what were arrowhead thinking
>>552352110I dont give a fuck, the only bad fomo is the shit like making enemy types fomo or planets like lava or oshaune fomo
>>552377895I genuinely want to see you niggers kill 3 of these things right next to eachother. Not even that anon, but holy shit these things spawn way too commonly to be this durable. They are 100% a rocket check or a railgun skill check. In a four man lobby on difficulty 10 you will see like 5 of these per drop it's fucking insane. I had like two recoiless guys in our group and I thought to myself "wow I can just bring machine gun this will be fine". Naw nigger. Worst part was I was better off with recoiless because my primary actually kills shield devs efficiently. Fucking bot meta is so stupid.
As gimmicky as it is, the chainsaw is fun.I wish it's hitbox was just a teensy bit longer though.
>>552378653It's stupid fun, I want it buffed really badly so it can be more viable though. Like I'm clearly throwing when I use this thing in a lobby.
>>552377240My fun noticeably drops when I see War Stiders because i know Im in for a grenade spamming fagfest.
>>552378606Are you actually retarded? /hdg/ routinely clobberrs 5+ striders at once with no casualties while holding off 2 patrols from the rear as well, just hop into a lobby.Between guys running around with SPEARs, EAT+Commando combo, RR, Rocket sentries, eagle strafe runs, people sniping their top weakspot with AMR. Striders are only an issue for pubbies running light pen.Also, MMG/HMG on bots? What the fuck are you thinking? Why? What's the point of a support weapon that gets out-competed in killing devs by most med-pen primaries and completely pales to compare versus any and all real AT strategems in killing Hulks/WarStriders/Factory Striders?
>>552378606I typically bring some flavor of eagle that will at least stagger them if not outright kill, leaving them wide open for hmg or amr or chainsawI think they're in an alright spot but I wouldn't mind a heatsink like tanks or hulks have.
>>552378979HMG is honestly a fairly solid pick on bots, kills everything except prenerf war striders and factory striders fairly fast if you tapfire, (for the factory strider set rpm to max, get under it's belly and let it rip)
>>552379801they have oneyou just never need to look for it because they explode when you shoot them once in the dick with anything appropriate
>>552376981I look like this and say these things.
>>552378979>MMG/HMG on bots? What the fuck are you thinking?I like shooting bullets.
i fucking hate these retarded swiggers. They released a red cape but it not the same shade as the 1 fully red armor we have
>>552381271I want my purple armor!I also think the cape is uggo, but the design is cool. I agree fuck the weird Vermillion red.
>>552379801I just hate how much they skew bots towards AT. It's a lot like aliens. Bring enough AT and you're good, while aliens is like bring enough anti chaff and you're good. Both are a cake walk when you meet the quota. Chainsaws based tho. God I love that strat. Hope they buff it a lil more.
>>552380415I mean one that you can pop with med-pen and a little positioning, theirs are heavy pen only
Honestly what scares me is how accurate warstriders are from afar. Niggers will randomly decide to beam you from 100+ meters
>>552381924>me when i try to gaslight people online to get a easy enemy nerfed furtherI don't remember the last time a War Strider actually hit me with its guns.Are you sure you didn't get hit by a fusion turret nearby or a hulk?
>>552382028Naw man. They have a distinct sound and everything I was surprised too thought they were innacurate. Niggers will hit you for like 90% of your health too.
>>552381924This but the turrets on fortresses, those things often are hidden behind smoke or blending in with their surroundings until they've locked on and ragdolled you with bleed directly onto the one unexploded mine nearby
>>552382146I fucking hate how they blend in with shit.Like the only reason I know where they are is because I've memorized POIs that have them which feels like such an ass reason.
Helldivers 2 tried to be a casual mass appeal game and it just didn't work. 60-day rollback and d11 dyoko?
>>552338487I always felt like this was an easy explanation for the discrepancy in how Meltaguns are portrayed in media. In Space Marine 1/2 you mostly fight hordes of guys that are at best lightly armored, not vehicles, so it makes sense they use theirs that way instead of having a concentrated beam for anti-tank work.IIRC there are even models on tabletop carrying spare Meltagun nozzles.
>>552377895Lots of shit incl ABRL, speargun, MGs (obvi), hell even AMR isn't very viable against a full war strider seed because you get ragdolled too much and it takes too long to kill them in their eyes. Orbitals and eagles are generally too sparse unless you use strafing run. Thermites are boring to always take.>>552378137Bots are unironically the light gear faction (squids aren't a real faction btw) because other than war (and factory striders, which is fair) you don't actually need anti-tank shit.People bitch about war striders justifiably because they show up at random with no warning, sometimes completely replacing hulks, and aren't nearly as fun as hulks.Ez fix that me (as a speargun enjoyer) and everyone else with a brain does is just bring rocket sentry every time. It's unfortunate that I have to waste a slot on a braindead turret strat because swigs and swig-defenders think gear-checks equate to difficulty, but whatever.
>>552377895Nothing wrong with "gear checks", go play Illuminate if you're too worried about your izzat.
>>552337368I've always assumed melta guns were just lava throwers cause that sounded cool. Like it just melted shit with raw spicy liquid. Microwave gun sounds boring.
>>552382713Resupply booster is so nice frankly. Specially with nade or medic armor.
>>552382607>ragdolledskill issue>>552382914it's a wastejust be efficientjust don't die
>>552382713your reading comprehension is lacking saar. I was saying it's hardly a gear check when 90% of your options can kill them with minimal effort.-Izzat for you
>>552382980>dont dieOh you sweet media illiterate child.
>>552382607This guy gets it. Ap2 ruins bots, ap3 is a meme. Rocket sentries rape warstriders and feel like the only solid answer that actually takes more than two brain cells to setup.
>>552382607by "heavy gear faction" i meant that they are the faction that has tanksand big robotsand are generally made of metali can't fathom being upset that a handful of enemies require you to actually use one of the many anti-tank weapons in the game, or pretending that this is an issue when you can carry four different weapons, but i'm straight
>>552383028>>552377895>Isn't a gear check>Goes and lists what gear you need to bring to counter themWorst part is how fucking thin the list is. Like there ant shit for reds. Don't even try. Pyros aren't good enough. AT mines are awful on bots. Emplacements get fucked hard by grenades. AC sentry prioritizes chaff. And support weapons that work are only ap4+ and HMG is a stretch. Same with wasp. Ultimatum is an option too.
>>552383195anything that forces me to adapt and alter my ebin meme contrarian pissclown build = death of loadout variety
>>552382980post webm of you killing a base with (minimum) 7 war striders in using speargun only and let's see you do it. No thermites. No eagles/orbitals. No supply pack either (I'm not a faggot so I don't need 80 stims)I'm sure I'm just trash at the game and it's not that a full war strider seed is obnoxious bullshit.
>>552383195But the tanks can be countered by a plethora of ways. In fact so can everything else. >You need AP4 up on this one unit, the only unit on bots that requires 4+ now>Well this is just how bots are dude
>>552383338>play the heavy faction without anti-heavy gear see how you like itnojust don't play bots if using one of the myriad AT options is intolerable to you
>>552382607How are bots the light-pen faction??You need med-pen to kill chaff effectively as it deals damage even if you miss the head, and heavies require heavy pen full-stopYou think running around a hulk to hit it's heat-sink when it's surrounded by chaingun devs which get more accurate as you get closer and rocket devs who will ragdoll you mostly reliably is a viable strategy?Bots are with some exceptions very inaccurate at range unless in very large numbers, so you have to be able to reliably and quickly kill them at range to stop them from getting close and keep their numbers in check. That means medium pen so you deal damage even if you miss the head and heavy pen to deal with armor at range. >i just dont miss lolPost accuracy stats
My problem with warstriders really boils down to.>Man I played like 20 bot missions using the few warstrider counters to death, id like to bring something else >Just bring the same shit you always bring chudSame goes with dragon roach, it's just a rail cannon tax.
>>552383537>You need med-pen to kill chaff effectivelyBro you didn't have to out yourself so early.
>>552383537Don't attack the bufftoddlers with logic and reason. They think loadout variety is when both bots and bugs are degraded to light pen dakka sims. They unironically want the entire armor system to gone. Even though illuminate already are that and nobody appreciates them.
>>552383370so you would be perfectly happy if they simply added half a dozen more enemies that work this way, theni don't understand the strider whiners always saying this about tanks either. yes you can fuck around for a while and get to their weak spots, but just like striders it's a lot more practical to be able to simply fucking shoot them the moment they pop into view. both of them will usually sit there for a month before they decide to attack you>>552383338are you sure you don't want to add some other stupid shit onto that list to convince yourself? name 100 reasons why notit's a good illustration of why you should bring the right tools for the job instead of being a retard, because you just described something i do regularly with scout gear and just a quaserit's almost like the root issue here is that you fags are simply bad at the video game
>>552383195bots are the heavy armor with weakspot factionbefore the war strider every heavy could be killed fast and efficiently by stuff like the AMR, AC or LC if you could aim for weakpoints.The factory strider is the execption, but even then these weapons could all defang it, and they're fairly uncommon to begin with.War striders were a shit design, the hip joints are about as durable as tank asses while being smaller, but war striders spawn in hulk numbers and had nothing but ragdoll attacks. A tank you could outmaneuver or use cover against, war striders make cover completly useless.I honestly believe that whoever designed the bots left after he made the factory strider, the downturn in design quality afterwards is crazy.
>>552382914The only place I think resupply booster really makes a big difference is Meganests. Even Automaton Fortresses are fine, but Meganests tend to lead to quite a bad case of death looping if someone trips up in them, which of course is still a skill issue but this game doesn't have ways for enough skill expression to really give a shit about that. A big part is also there really isn't a 4th booster that actually does anything. I suppose Muscle Enhancement but it doesn't even matter on half the planets.
>>552383760>bots are the heavy armor with weakspot faction*weredeal with it
>>552383714>bring the right tools for the jobNOOOOOOO THIS IS HECKIN OPPRESSION MUH MMG MUH STALWART MUH PYRO AUTISM BOMBS MUH FULL LASER BUILD
>>552383714>yes you can fuck around for a while and get to their weak spots, but just like striders it's a lot more practical to be able to simply fucking shoot them the moment they pop into viewTanks are easy to approach they also die to a shit ton of reds and even cheeky grenades due to this weakness. Not to mention you're rewarded for your positioning. Also both shredder and barrager can be taken out from way more angles. I routinely get behind warstriders to shoot their vent with ap4 too. It's not even impossible to get behind them. In fact getting close under them is preferable.
>>552383195See>>552383275WASP is such a great example because if AH didn't have it's retarded RR-meta-izing armor system it *should* shred bots, but it doesn't because it arbitrarily doesn't do any damage to them because of the armor interactions. Strat weapon slot + backpack for 1/40th of what's possible with one rocket sentry.>>552383537>>552383474Bots are actually the "heavy armor with weakpoint" faction and that was obviously how the release bots were designed back when AH actually made the game instead of the jeets, like you guy(s), they subcontracted to design the war striders.>>552383595It's actually probably not even being indian, just autism. Autistic people have no problem playing 10000 missions in a row with the RR because they're autistic and they find efficiency to be "fun". Actual people with souls prefer to use variety, which in the case of the war strider requires reworks to it's armor systems - some of which already occurred, though they're still annoying with off-meta shit - and the autists can't understand why someone would want to do that.+ they perceive these changes are nerfs, which they technically are, despite the fact that if done right the breakpoints for AT weapons wouldn't change it would simply make the less viable options less miserable to use. I suspect there's also a hint of superiority complex going on where thermite spamming supply pack retards think they're good at the game and don't want their nonexistent valor stolen by non-meta strats being usable.
>>552383881you'd have a point if there was any way to tell what enemy composition you're dropping intoyou can't bring the right tool for the job when the game doesn't tell you what's the job to begin with
>>552383881>Bring thermites chud, respect ze meta
>>552383760the weak spots should only exist on low diffon high difficulties, bot heavies should all be like the warstriderheavies are meant to actively resist quick solutions, attrit the player, and disrupt speedrunningbots never were meant to be compliant with ezwin MO grind anticsno other unit in the game is as attuned to what bots were originally meant to beslitless hulks, sinkless tanks, and heavy facstriders are needed
>>552384124THE RIGHT TOOL IS THERMITE OR RR EVERY TIME??? ISN'T THAT FUN??? THEY'RE THE FUCKING HEAVY ARMOR FACTION CHUD
>>552384124AT is and always has been the right choice vs bots. You should always have room for at least EAT, which happens to be a flawless anti warstrider tool. Don't wanna bring AT, don't play bots. It's that simple.
>>552384121>and the autists can't understand why someone would want to do that.That genuinely might be what it is. I just assumed people don't play the game enough to get bored, but the people that would bitch online are more likely to be terminal autists.
>>552384076>It's not even impossible to get behind them.well yeah dude, no kidding. they're a nearly harmless enemy unless you're cowering behind a rock and not doing shit. the guns never hit anything and they're very lazy with the grenadesthey're only a problem if there's other shit around and you don't deal with them. which is why it's typically better to just fucking shoot them because there usually is other shit aroundif there isn't, then sure. just run past them and turn around briefly to bop their butt on the way to where you're going. so it's situational, not preferable.
>>552384276No :(
>>552383760>The factory strider is the execptionIt's not, maybe only for AMR because it sucks. AC, Railgun and LC can all easily kill it by hitting the eye. AC it takes IIRC 15 shots, Railgun around 5, LC it takes about 13 seconds which is just slightly above your total firing time but you can just stop for a second to cool off.All of these easily destroy the Gatling guns too so you can just run up and break the belly if you don't feel like hitting your weakspots.
>>552384174nothing wrong with playing the metaeverything wrong with insisting on contrarian shitbuilds only to moan about ragdolling and getting rekt
>>552384124 >data=guaranteed hunter>oil=likely alpha>icbm=guaranteed bile>destroy eggs=likely hiveguard >flag=guaranteed nursery>geo suevey=guaranteed alpha>evac civilians=likely alpha
>>552384572But the meta is simple and boring though. I wanna try something else that should be fun and viable.
>>552384354Game got boring because of incessant player buffing and the inverse on enemies, not a perceived lack of loadout variety. There's nothing autistic about sticking to what works.
>>552384206>no other unit in the game is as attuned to what bots were originally meant to bebots have literally been the heavy armor with weakspot faction since day 1 retardyou could always dab on hulks with AP4 to the eye, or on tanks with AP4 to the rear/heatsinksThe RR was fucking garbage for bots before the 60 day patch for this exact reason, AP4 weapons could kill heavies in skilled hands while also being able to deal with mediumsthe war strider was the only exception when it released, with a very small, overly tanky weakspot for how common it is
>>552384717OKlower the difficultygo to the purple part of the mapwarstriders are fine, swedes don't owe you an ap3 weak spot
>>552384749You could solo bots with nade launcher too. Thing nuked tanks from the front and hulks if you could hit in the sweet spot.
>>552384206>enshrine the anti-tank meta as law
>>552384848They do and they will give it to me. The meta will be way more broad and you will suffer being forced to have options outside of AT cuck boy.
>>552384749>you could always dab on hulks with AP4this is a bad thing, it ultimately reduces hulks to enlarged chaff, which is not what heavies should ever be, fat mistake to design them this way and even fatter mistake to then go ahead making them even less threatening
>>552384884Good gamedesign is when you can only bring one weaponHonestly if you drop without an RR on bots you should just get automatically kicked back to the destroyer
I'm so mad that they made the previously irrelevant anti-tank weapons relevant. Ahh, I'm angry.
>>552384331This entire argument summarized:>100 IQ people saying how gear checks aren't fun or challenging, and how they want to use the massive variety of strats and weapons in the game without obviously handicapping themselves by not using the best 3-5 options every single game for thousands of hoursvs<100 IQ people (or trolls/autists/etc.) saying how gear checks aren't a thing, until challenged, where they then admit that actually they are a thing, but it's a good thing actually and in fact you're just stupid for even wanting to use anything else because - whether via tism or an IQ-gate - they genuinely can't conceptualize why in a PvE horde shooter where the entire content ecosystem revolves around releasing weapons and stratagems; less variety might actually be bad or why more variety would be good... All of which is equated with difficulty despite the fact that the meta weapons aren't only the most effective, but also the easiest and most boring to use.I can only assume it's autism or trolling because if you metafags were as retarded as you should be to have that opinion unironically you wouldn't be able to complete the new captcha.
>>552385016Hulks are the lightest heavy on purpose, you quickly kill them or they quickly kill youIt's a good design
>>552385012>cuck boysays the bufftoddler that can't be asked to center an EAT onto a warstrider's crotchloadout contrarians are never good players, I've seen your lobbies from the inside
>>552385065If you want to seethe while grinding bots for thousands of hours I guess.As someone who enjoys the whole game I appreciate the opportunity to use weapons I wouldn't bring against the other factions. I'll generally rotate which specific one I bring after looking at what my squadmates have equipped (I know that things like planning and forward thinking are foreign ideas to you guys though).The War Strider might actually be my favourite enemy.
>>552385138heavies shouldn't be quickly killable at all full stoplike I said before, heavies exist to>slow down the player>generate attritionwarstriders do this effectively, they're a good designrest of the bot heavies often fails at it, dogshit design>b-but I dun wanna be slowed down I wanna be sanic fast and win the MOyou're in lucklower difficulties and the illuminate are waiting for you
>>552384124>>552384654>neurotypical person with a functioning brain wants variety and transparency>autistic tylenol baby sperg has every constellation seed memorizedMy theory that autism is the divide between ATmetafags and varietychads is becoming more and more obviously correct.
>>552385416there is no inherent value to variety
>>552384654>icbm=guaranteed bileNot true btw.
>>552385357if video games can frustrate you to such an extent that you seethe and grind your teeth at them for any reason whatsoever you legit should never play video games ever again
>>552385357Genuinely what are you even talking about? The meta weapons like RR, EAT, and thermite are the same for bugs and bots, and unnecessary on squids. Chaff is never the issue, it's only your ability to handle tanky enemies, which is determined entirely by how much of your loadout you devote to the 5-8 anti-tank options, of like 100 options that range from suboptimal to useless. As I said I don't seethe because I just take rocket sentry, but it's not good game design that I have to do that to use speargun as much as I do when I get a full war strider seed.>>552385478kek'd. pic related.I agree they should remove everything and it should only be one strat slot and it should only be RR. Immediate 100k concurrent players the day after AH does this.
If you bring along EAT to juggle with your non-AT support weapon as the situation requires you'll never have to complain about about "gear checks". This advice is wasted on buffbaboons thoughever because their short-term memories are too brainrotted to remember picking up the non-AT support after the deed is done. Moral of the story: Don't wreck your mind. Take your meds if you need em.
>>552385416stfu, NORMIE.
if you [gear check] you won't have to deal with gear checks
>>552385874AT/ap5+ gear is quite diverse. There are shittons to choose from. The problem isn't that you're "bored" with AT, you just feel insulted because your ill-conceived loadouts got rightly stomped.
>>552386232Bring the right tools for the job or lower the difficulty / convert to squidshitterdom.
it's unreasonable to demand that every loadout works in every situationthis would make the game too easy and boring
>>552386232they aren't "gear checks" in any case. that's retard gibberish like "artificial difficulty"
Reminder Helldivers actually succeding at accomplishing missions is not canon.
>>552383702AMR is not good enough because you cant aim reliably due to ragdollsBut it's a light pen faction because you can just aim for the weakpoints
>>552386930sh-SHUT UP YOU NERFTROON-IZZAT YOUR FAMILY LOST IZZAT BENCHODE
>>552386552>changing the game so weapons that aren't AT can penetrate armor too would make it too easy >weapons where you have hit a lot of shots like machine guns>or weapons you have to charge up like the arc thrower>or close range only weapons like shotguns>will be too easy>as opposed to the current one shot kill everything weapons like RR or EATs Yeah game is sooo challenging omg I'm gonna have a heart attack after every mission it's so stressful to one shot every heavy or do no damage with no inbetween aaaaa
I wish warstriders spawned more.
>>552384856hell, scorcher with a supply pack murdered bots on day 1, the splash would kill tanks from the side/top of the turret if you magdumpedhulks require you to position behind them but that's not exactly difficult.
>>552387213you're absolutely right of coursein addition to losing their ap3 weak spots all bot heavies should receive hp+durable buffs so they can't be oneshot by EAT/RR anymore
>>552386930Ragdolls aren't even the issue for me it's the dog ass recoil (or hitboxes?). Even warp packing around to avoid the war strider nades it's so fucking hard to hit the eye right and sometimes feels like it takes multiple mags. I still don't even know the actual amount of hits to the eye with AMR it's supposed to take with a war strider because it's so inconsistent. Idk if it's the hitbox or what. If I knew how to make webms I'd post one but I swear I've mag dumped right in the center of war strider eyes so fucking much to not kill them, and other times it takes like 4 or 5 shots and they die.
I wish warstriders, dragons and leviathans were removed from the game and completly reworked
new warbond>BUFF TODDLERS>primary: CUC-47 Hubby Choker - 320 damage per round, 750 fire rate, 65 mag assault rifle with explosive projectiles each doing an additional fully durable 320 explosive damage>secondary: L2P-F Eraser - sidearm that despawns enemies (no aim required; enemies despawn automatically)>armor perk: Diver Diaper - stims you to full and grants you an indestructible bubble shield for 60 seconds if you go to 0 hp with at least one stim in your inventory>stratagem: Be My Baby - deploys a squad of child care nurses equipped with fresh diapers and perfectly tempered milk>booster: No Fun Allowed - if active fleshmobs, warstriders, hive lords, and dragon roaches cannot spawn
>>552387439Uhh i'm not gonna fuck with calculating percentages between durable and not durable bullshit but I think it should take about 3-4 shots based on the wiki. The eye has 500HP that's 70% durable, the AMR does 450DMG but only 50% of that to durable. So it would napkin math to like 270DMG per hit to the eye??Not a math guy and i'm still hangover so take it with some grains of salt chigga
>buffgod game: use wide variety of weapons, exploit weakspots, aim well and get rewarded for your skill>nerfnigger game: BRING RR OR DIE AIEEEE
>552387907Completely mindbroken.
>>552388304bufftroons can't aim, they moan about shield devs ffs
>attracts more pubshitters than actual bugs
>>552387907Ez buy for the booster. Must be an ironic name I'm not media literate enough for since it strangely only removes the not fun enemies.
>>552388563But knobbing a dragonroach mid-flight with a RR/EAT and watching it fuck right into a wall IS peak
>>552388304t. eruptor / ultimatum / thermite user
>>552391045>Thinking eruptor is good on botsWay to out yourself as a shitter, nigger
>>552391161nta but it isEruptor is one of those items that are just so overtuned that they are S tier on all three fronts
>>552391161it's good for brownoids who want to kill shit with 0 effort like (You)
What's the primary with the least izzat?
>>552391362Diligence Counter-sniper
>>552391249>>552391254It's literally a AMR with worse firerate and ergo that tries to compensate with a HE FRAG round that hardly does anything against anything but the most basic chaff. There is nothing it does that the explosive crossbow and a proper AT blue strategem doesn't do MUCH better.
>>552391631utterly inept comparisonthey're fundamentally different weapons, projectiles, and use casesAMR is about range and high velocity, two things Eruptor does not haveplease stop commenting on meta and guns in general
>>552391816Yeah eruptor doesn't have range, high velocity, ergonomics, firerate, and damage potential. All it does is have meme-pen and an utterly inconsistent and dogshit round. It's not a meta gun fag what meta. You can cry you can scream and kick and piss and shit but id doesn't change the fact that it's a overhyped reddit weapon who brainlets who can't aim play because they think heavy pen can compensate.Shame it doesn't exist IRL, I would have told you to go put one in your mouth and pull the trigger if you like it so much
>>552378979>I brought a bad loadout to a bot mission and now it's failing to perform adequately>How could this happen to me?
>552392195Uh-oh, meltie!
>toss 500kg on top of a bile titan hole>holes counter goes down by 1>look at it close>bile titan spawns from it>????>bile titan hole respawns>?????>I'm soloing the mission and I'm hosting the game>??????????????????????>toss the only hellpod I have available right then (resupply pod)>says it's going to land there>doesn't land there and refunds itself>??????????????????????????Playing this game alone in D10 really makes you wonder how much glue the devs drink on a regular basis.
you are redditi win
should redditors have ap3 heatsinks
>>552392431>t.
>>552392195>It's not a meta gunkexplain this then
>>552392575AH really saw a lot of people using the newest AR and decided they had to nerft it despite saying they wouldn't
>>552392634Don't forget they didn't nerf it directly. They literally tweaked values so only it got nerfed. Sneaky fucks
negativei am a double edgesicle
>>552392575What pubshitters use or dont use is evidence of nothing. Turn on crossplay and see how they use these 'top tier' weapons and you'll see what I mean.
>>552392773They indirectly nerfed every gun that wasn't buffed to counter act the durability increasesAll just do fuck over the Coyote because ARs are supposed to be mediocre at best
>>552392195you're a fucking retard >oooh the gun that can oneshot every medium and destroy objectives and deal with grouped chaff is bad because it's kinda slow to swing I don't even use the eruptor and I know you're talking out your ass
>>552392982>majority consensus doesn't matter, everyone but me and my closest bros is too stoopid to get itAh, the midwit's final recourse. Unless we count suicide, that is.
Reddit says the eruptor is good because it 2 shots the hulk visor.
Is this thing the ultimate skill check support weapon?>it's a fucking beast if you can aim>it's fucking worthless if you can't aim
Eruptor is grossly overtunedcarrying it around is equivalent to wearing an "I want it easy" badge
>>552393072>appeal to the majorityPseud behavior. Argument discarded.
>>552393181give me an exosuit with two big ones of these(it should also squirt grenades out of its dick)
>>552393181No, it's a braindead support weapon.The flag, deforestation tool and sterilizer are skill check support weapons.
>>552393370Meta is ultimately about which methods and playstyles are considered most effective by the community. Eruptor is definitely among those. That's not an appeal to majority, it's basic knowledge about what the community does and does not believe. Eruptor is not a skillgod item. If anything it's meant to be understood as a starter gun, something you use until you can get away with a less universally great gun.>b-but low ergoNot as much of a problem as you think it is. Adjusting to low ergo is easy.
you pretty much just click on enemies with all the weapons. i don't know if that's especially skillful. maybe if you're one of those cripple guys who plays by blowing in a tube
Which support weapon has the most insecure defenders?
>>552393701Indeed HD2 is altogether extremely simple for a game of its kind. Nothing is difficult, none of the systems are hard to understand, and most importantly nobody deserves bragging rights for succeeding with this or that less-than-A-tier weapon. Anyone can do it.
>>552393701>you pretty much just click on enemiesyes? that's how it works in all shooters. you click on the enemy and they die.I guess you need to play with a controller or keyboard only to count as skillful
>>552393767ENTER
>>552393852i click on things all the time. sometimes i even right click while opening up a bunch of porn tabs. i would never describe myself as an expert at masturbating though; it's true but i'm far too humble. i bet if i had one of those tubes to blow in instead of using WASD i could play helldivers at the same time with some practice
>>552393962I don't think I've ever seen anyone defending the MG
>>552393767AMR, for sure.Recoilless probably has had the most defenders, it was good and everyone took it, almost never got shit on except to say that it was too good.EAT and Commando chads just enjoyed it but never pooped on anyone else's choice. QC, LC, and railgun users whined about their sights, a few railgun users would get pissy (understandably) if anons called it hard to use (and it was bad when warstriders were everywhere pre-nerf) or bemoaned the lack of demo force. Autocannon and AMR users were the designated rivalry, always flinging shit every thread back and forth over who was useless and bad, but AMR users always came across more insecure to me.
>>552394147but you havewho do you think all the "nerf warstrider muh ap3 weak point is needful" seetheposts are coming from
holy shit if i could open tabs by blowing in a tube i could jerk off with BOTH hands
>>552394280nobody brought the regular MG to bots long before war striders were a thing. It was always the "I feel like suffering today" option
>>552394404yes they did and whined about "AT gear checks" even before warstriders
what are those tube things called, i've got ebay open but i don't know what to search for
When's the next slop drop?
