>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.

>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. Its mechanics were based primarily on Arrowhead's first game, Magicka.

Ngl this is honestly really disappointing. It doesnt look lived in at all.

Dropping an anniversary update with content that is not in the game and cannot be accessed because of their retarded story galactic war bullshit

All cause we didn't raze it. Which makes zero fucking sense. How would glassing a planet remove the ability of the bots to invade it??
>>
>>556594973
Their endgame here is just how it should've always been. If we want new content that isn't coming to us via an enemy attack, we should go get it.

Now instead of a pathetic drip feed, we can control the rate of new content ourselves. It gives some reason to get to new planets.

Of course, this is assuming the galactic war rates are handled without bs. They used to be fairer.

You are not living in reality if that is what you believe, if we have to get content ourselves then the galactic war obviously will be 100% railroaded. What would have happened if we were in control and we reached Cyberstan in September when the tileset and the cyborgs were maybe 40% done? AH scraps the update and starts working on another one that also then gets scrapped because players conquered the critical planet?
It's retarded and it will lead to a significant % of the playerbase just checking-out of the whole clumsy storytelling and worldbuilding they are trying to do, let alone the galactic war.
Content has to come to us if we are to be given reigns of the galactic war and make it fun, Squids coming was a good blueprint that fell flat because it wasn't actually new content. All they had to do was to put the other half of the faction on the grand fleet or whatever, made the MOs in the meantime to be about getting buffs for the defense like the current one is, and everyone would have loved it. And it gives AH a clear timeline where to drop the update and players some realistic expectations rather than Swedish tricks where we are given the "freedom" to do something but we are actually going to finish doing it only on the exact set time AH wants it.
Sweden is just terrified of letting go of the steering wheel because what if the players make something fun and cool happen rather than another self-loathing meat-grinder Swedish fetish fulfillment MO
>>
>>556593286
You see, deep down they hate themselves, God, the rest of humanity, and their own penises. That's why even comically evil communist robots can still be the good guys in their eyes, because anyone who kills all those aforementioned things they hate are heroes in their minds.

I basically agree with you but I think that what you say clashes with a motivated, organic galactic war. The idea that we could find something interesting out there is cool. Like going out looking for jet brigade planets to enjoy the modifier. Maybe that's the key. Surges and modifiers and operational restrictions, but advertising them in advance with better Intel. Maybe fucking seaf involvement.

The Bastion SPG HAS neutral steering (as seen in picrel)
But it's not PROPER neutral stearing.
It's unresponsive and janky as fuck. The "pivoting on itself" should be as fast as pressing W and accelerating.
In some cases (based on the Strv103 on which the Bastion should be based) it's even more responsive than the acceleration itself.

I think you're pushing yourself a little too hard to be gud. Divers die a lot, you can be straight up dead weight and someone can carry you through and have fun doing it. A few suggestions:

1. don't stress about loadouts with this one simple trick: ALWAYS take EAT 17 if you're in doubt. The rest you can then randomise and play around with.

2. Despite what you say, it's really mainly big explosions and gadgets for fun after that. You can do everything except hive lords and Hulk surge with the basic loadout.

3. The idea of there being a best loadout is something this general will probably not agree on, so why stress when hdg lobbies often pick retarded shit for fun?

Are you hosting? Are you on controller? What front?

I'm not so sure, it really does feel like choosing the wrong weapon gimps you. Part of the reason why I always ran the AP rifle on bot missions, it feels wierd when I don't use it
>Are you hosting?

KBnM. Poor performance however, even on toaster mode

Bots. I always found bugs to be very boring and the new bug enemies look really unfun. I only fought illuminate during the attack on SE, since they weren't a thing before. Still think I prefer Bots

>I dunno, it always feels like I'm supposed to minmax my loadout and only bring the best shit possible
Ok, here's where I'll have to be a bit of a bummer... If you're playing D6 and struggling, yeah, you might be better off taking only meta loadouts (Recoiless on any front, Autocannon on any front, Railgun on bots, etc.).

What you should do, really, is get better at the game (i know, stick with me); Through practice and a bit of reading, see pic related, you can really quickly get to doing d10s with only one or two deaths at most.

Other than that, yeah, >>556598179 is right. /hdg/ lobbies are generally way higher skill and more cooperative than pubbies, meaning your life will be way easier and you'll have more room to pick more unconventional loadouts and have more fun with team reloading, supply, and other coop stuff like that.

>>556599131
I just noticed...

>>556599220
It does gimp you but it kind of doesn't matter. You can get the mission done in most cases. Maybe you don't want to pick 4 Eagles for bug caves however. But otherwise, most maps you can do the objective if you use your head or scavenge for an mg or extra grenades, somewhere. Sometimes even without that. I guess just experiment with stuff at random with the EAT as a safety net.

There are a lot of weird things that can work like using nothing but gas strats and an smg with the gas armour, using only flame weapons, using fucking stun melee with a medic suit and supply pack, being a suicide bomber, being a dedicated driver and mech man, being a primary shotgun spammer, just using turrets, just using emplacements, just using mines. AMR only. Laser weapons only. Only using explosives. Etc etc.

I welcome any of these on my operations and they all go ok. Just play around, but I do recommend joining some hdg lobbies.

I’m well past the point of knowing every MO and the entire GW is rigged, but what was their goal with this MO? I feel like they over-sabotaged it. Surely this is a must-win major story beat one, they literally just showed off cyberstan today.
Taking 3 hard planets in a week was suffice. Idk the point of the dss raze vote thing and then subsequent attack anyways as a result that doesnt even make sense. Were they very confident we were gonna vote to raze? Not to mention they did it in the middle of a meta level ‘the bots are infiltrating our systems’ marketing thing on the discord.

if you insist in playing alone the only advice i can give you is to disable crossplay, it will take longer to find matches but at least you won't have to worry about playing with consoleniggers (most of which are literal niggers)

Stuff like that makes super earth look more like good guys.
It's rough goverment that has solved lot of issues. But we aren't presented with anything negative other then 5 billion dead helldivers. But even that is justifiable when you look at your enemies.

I think AH just got confused when they tried to make game meet their sensibilities but also have super earth to be bad guys. You can have both. But you need much more work then super earth's military Is poop. Bots just want peace. Don't trust your lying eyes

>>556610583
Redacted, you can accomplish more in maps when nearly invisible and laying down some well placed orbitals or dropping a PHB at jammers, don't expect it to negate flying monkeyniggers or gunships though. If you are crouched or prone it can lower aggro on bot turrets though.

percent damage reduction scales off armor which results in it double dipping. so 25% explosive damage reduction is (usually) worth more than 25% more armor because the 25% explosive reduction is further increased by base armor reduction so you might end up with 31% explosive resist rather than the listed 25%. This is why there's such a massive jump between medium fortified and heavy fortified in terms of explosive survivability because as base armor goes up, % resist gets even better than listed.

This is also why Heavy gas resist armor + Vitality Booster makes you completely immune to gas damage. The developers forgot to account for that double dip and It brings gas damage to 0.98 which forces the game to round it down to 0

Its also leaning heavily into the "sins of the father" thing as a guilt trip. But even then thats really hard to justify when squids are turning people into zombies and making them into blobs of flesh as well as razing planets and throwing wormholes at planets to utterly destroy them, bots blend people up and use their bodies as decorations, and bugs are... well theyre bugs, who gives a shit. The only thing they did right was the bugs being released on purpose because free-roam bugs produce more E-710 than bugs in captivity. The other two, though? Hard to feel like bots and squids are in the right.

The point of stealth is to semi-solo in MP, and strategic support at the same time, the typical brownoid and console player will not comprehend this, to break it down:
>Can sweep map independently and save time on mission
>Super Samples if they are needed
>Neutralize Stalker/Gunship nodes
>Neutralize bases and heavy bases
That is indirect usefulness, team oriented applications:
>Lure/bait enemies away from objectives and extraction
>Trigging a breach/drop away from said objectives and ghosting them to fill the map with rendered enemies, lessening/reducing the the amount to zero for allies to deal with when they are on objectives
>Flanking enemies that are engaged with teammates (very enjoyable)

Lastly, when you drop in, you need to quickly ascertain whether your team are effective or complete dogshit. Do not offer flank support if they are the latter, instead use them as a distraction force (hurr durr 5 dropships on me I'm gonna gruuunt), When they are out at ram ranch, accomplish said objectives.

HD2 dosent explains this at all. All we see is us fighting for survival. That is what we get from game.
With bugs it feels like AH fell into reddit trap over starship troopers. Bugs are good guys and so on.
But verhoven was actually smart. Bugs are horible. They are monsters. They will eat you and drink your brain.
But Bugs are literally other side of galaxy. Mormons were encroaching to their territory and shit went down. They are animals on defending their territory more or less. We aren't shown any expansionlistic tendency over their part.
Rather humans are pushing to their territory.
Bugs on otherhand. They are slowly pushing toward super earth. Gloom is growing. They have taken super earth cities wholly.
They are equal monsters to starship trooper Bugs. But instead living far away on their own territory. They are in same sector as super earth and expanding.

Hulk surge is really showing you quality of randoms.
I actually want to be able to observer how others are just playing.
Just saw random try to use senator to kill hulk. Missing every shoot massively. Nowhere near of eye. Hulk wasn't even close or firing at them. Just walking toward.
Failing to do simple objectives. Random tried to do new turret swrili objective full 10 min in blitz. Failed and quit. I managed to do it after timer had ran out.
Another random got stuck in place and kept fighting in spot where we landed whole match. They used two resuplies. Which was fun when you are in city.

It is actually shame Hulk surge wasn't MO itself.

In the DSS panel where you vote on where it should jump to next. By voting Aurora Bay you are voting to continue the attack, and by voting Chud Bay you are voting to Raze it. You are making the correct choice to not fall for the "Super Earth are just as bad as the Squids" narrative, and voting for Aurora Bay.

>HMG
Found it to not be enough on defense missions at least when every singular unit is a Hulk due to the reload even with the reduction armor, Stun Grenade and Eruptor/Laser Cannon do well, Rocket and Autocannon turrets almost feel mandatory.
>>
>>556616397
Hulk corp that would be going around in bot planets at minimum.
>>556616428
Amr and learn to aim. Funniest and tightest moment I have had in this game was unloading full magazine on army of hulks. Killing one with every shot.
But as I reload. More hulks keep walking toward me. I turn back and warp away. Only to run into two more hulks.
Fun.

"super earth bad" is best left to lore and little details for 2 reasons
1. that shit would be really boring, nobody wants to just slaughter unarmed enemies who can't fight back more than once
2. nobody actually wants to feel like "the" bad guy. a grunt on the side of the bad guys? sure, but not the one actually doing the reprehensible shit that super earth does in-lore.
the solution is to allude to super earth doing bad things but to do so through lore, mission briefings, mission objectives (terminate illegal broadcast is one, but another would be bringing back the truth transmitters from HD1), environmental details, dialogue, etc.
they really need to bring back the NPCs you can talk to who give you actual lore details.
>I miss Super Earth, everything from the artificial trees and public executions to the skyways in the east and the constant liberty inducing announcements - it truly is the jewel of the Milky Way!
>We have solid evidence that the Illuminate have an extremely powerful nano-fusion device that can destroy an entire planet. Could you imagine the cry of millions if even one of these devices are used? That is the reason why we can't allow them to live, they're a threat to the entire galaxy - and after we've suppressed their destructive ways, we should probably be able to get hold of their technology and create devices of equal or greater potency ourselves!

>>556615617
Obviously they're not gonna completely remove the cyborg enemies they spent so long developing. But a large schism between cyborgs that just want to live and cyborgs that are total successionists that want the bots to take over might be cool. And since Sweden loves to make everything a joke about [current year] you could make it a gag about current AI mania where Silicon Valley is legitimately full of crazies like that who really believe that future ChatGPT paperclipping us is the good ending because reasons.

I actually want to. I want game that treats violence realistically and with gravitas it has in real world. And you do it from point of view of bad guys. It would be intresting and it would do good for games overall to treat violence as serius matter. Rather then gamified press button cool shit happens.

Two factions of cyborgs would be easy to do. Have there be virtual cyborgs who merge themselves with computers and ai. Float in tank and are hivemind/commanders/controversial behind bots. Their goal is to become fully virtual and have everything done through robots.
Then you have cyborgs who just want to live their lives. They aren't down with leaving their bodies behind to become.

Primary would be last ditch against a hulk, if it came down to it I think you would be better off trying to pop his eye-bussy with a senator than trying to take it out with a primary. Eruptor would probably be best against it's vents if you have enough distance and nothing else to hit it with but mostly you will be dealing with them with strats at a distance.

Personally I take an adjudicator, it's a little punchier than some other options so it can fuck up their vents, but it's still got enough spray to clear devestators as well

Crazy how easy this game becomes when you pick best in slots. No need to aim. Devastators just die on their own.
Heavie? Eat infinite granades. Damage? Bitch please infinite stims.
I also had harpoon on my own. Ability to have basically unlimited harpoons was nuts.
I always wondered how did randoms stayed alive so well when all they do is stand still and shoot enemies. Or how they deal with heavies by trying to kill everything. Turns out it was suplypack.
And I forgot what strong primary is in this game.

Then it wasn't me. I just suicide nuked 4 command bunkers alone. Run in. Thermite. Die. Repeat on next bunker.
They all were next to each others. Plus cannon turrets. If you stood still you would die instantly.
Suicide run worked quite well.
I also brute forced drill mission earlier. Other players refused to help or push the enemies. So I just ran in and did console. Died. Repeated again until I was done

Words cannot express how much I fucking hate Joel. For all that AH keeps telling us "You're not allowed to criticize or hate other players for playing or voting differently from you" he sure as shit likes to punish the player base for not doing the super smart thing that only works if half the braindead fuckers don't foil the votes or go to the right planet. You cannot treat a player base of 100,000+ like a DnD table session, because more than 70% of the people just outright ignore the MOs or are too stupid to use deductive reasoning given such insufficient clues.

I don't know why they even bother with the whole pick your own adventure larp, they obviously don't like it themselves and 70 percent of the player base probably don't even realize it's a mechanic.

They should just use it once in a while for a mission that doesn't matter much (like gas mines vs saving the children's hospital)

Scorcher is a solid pick but to call it best in slot is going way overboard. Honestly I think it would benefit from having a fire rate selector or burst mode, the default rate is too fast for how little ammo you get and how fast you burn through it.

Because their explanation for how to use the DSS is retarded. What the fuck does bombarding an entire planet do vs an incoming invasion? Maybe if you stretch the logic, getting rid of existing bot structures makes it harder to re-establish a foothold but that's fucking reaching.

Why the fuck can't they just say "park the fucking DSS here and have it blockade the planet and it'll significantly reduce the invasion level" or something. At least that tells the players exactly what it'll do. Retarded fucking swedes.

They pulled out several elite units with zero warning, surged shitloads of units onto the planets in our path, and completely ramped up the decay rates to unreasonable bullshit levels, all before they started this last couple series of counterattacks. Joel is just having a bitchfit because the players were making progress faster than he anticipated, and he's being "forced" to pull even more bullshit out of his ass to try to slow us down.

The invasions will continue until the helldivers attack Merak.

Please understand, Merak has the same biome as Malevelon Creek. That means it is EPIC and we can have more organic memes like "Remember the Creek" form just in time for the invasion of Cyberstan.

Except it was never explained like that. All he said was "total destruction of enemy forces and maximum vengeance for crimes committed" which logically does absolutely nothing against the forces that aren't currently on the planet and will invade it afterward. The average braindead moron who plays this game wouldn't be able to make the leap of logic that Joel is up to his usual antics and would pull this exact maneuver afterward. He just makes up the mechanics on the fly and changes them at a whim to suit his personal narrative. Remember when we were supposed to set up and defend those SEAF recruitment centers? How did that bullshit turn out?

And Joel is a fucking moron for expecting players to be able to deduce anything from these dispatches, because the vast majority of people online right now are returners who haven't been dealing with his bullshit for the last two years. He somehow expects the "player base" to "learn" but doesn't realize that the player base is constantly rotating with old players quitting, new players joining, and returners having zero clue what's happening. So, the player base always makes the dumbest decisions because only a fraction of the voters actually recognize what's actually happening, and then he proceeds to punish everybody for it.

Here let me be Joel for a minute and demonstrate how to do this entire thing in a not-retarded way.
>players capture Lesath
>Helldivers be advised: Bot counterattacks are likely during this campaign. The DSS has been augmented with additional defensive squadrons and can be stationed to aid against incoming invasions. Vote to have it lead the charge or help protect what we have gained.
>players push ahead anyway
>Helldivers be advised that bots are counter attacking in an attempt to cut us off. Intel suggests they are moving their defensive forces in this flanking attempt. Helldivers are advised to either push the attack and strike where they are weakened, or protect our backline.
>Continued attack will put pressure on our supply lines, incurring ammo shortages, reduced reinforcements, and higher extraction times.
>Defending against these attacks will take additional time, but will ensure our supply lines remain intact.
>Good luck and liberty speed your step.
The playerbase is rewarded for being skilled and pushing hard, or playing it safe and keeping our territory. Waow. That was hard.

The squids glassed those three planets on their way out though, after having gotten their asses kicked on Super Earth. They were just normally occupying them during the entire invasion.

Question for my fellow diff 9 & 10 helldivers: What's the general etiquette regarding Helldive and SuperHelldive, to do the objectives and hopefully extract, or to clear the maps anyway? I never had the guts to join randoms above diff 8
>>
>>556622191
He's never been so right before.
He only hates tank because he's a solo shitter though. But he's right, for the game it's garbage with randos. The luster wears off exceptionally fast after the third or fourth time you drive the tank.
Leveller is pure fun but yeah is just a glorified rail cannon for factory striders.

Everything else absolutely right.

Randoms are fine, for the most part. As long as youre the host and you keep crossplay off. Usually people go for a full clear. But being the host gives you a level of authority on how much you want to actually do.

It's marginally better only at fighting hulk blobs at close range and you shouldn't be fighting hulk blobs at close range anyway because hulk bodies will stack up and block your shots.
>the fuck you plinking patrols on roads for?
Because they're walking towards my team. Are you retarded?
>Actual objectives will consistently force you into closer range.
All city objectives are connected to roads where you can engage from. Objectives like Jammer and Detector are on high platforms that you can plink Hulks off before going in.

>>556636916
Yeah with all the fucking money they made I expected them to at least have a military jacket or something like that

>>556637135
Full clear, no matter the mission. Cursed lobbies are the exception as they normally have spent 30 minutes dying and have done no objectives.

helldivers 2's gameplay is like a theme restaurant.
you might like a variety of the food on the menu (bugs, bots, squids), or you might be a tendies (bug) diehard.
but the problem is that the owners love playing music all the time (the gw). and they have dogshit taste. it doesn't ruin the food but for people that aren't autistic or deaf it does hurt the overall experience

Merely being 'connected' doesn't mean you get a 100+ meters sightline that gives you a clear view of the objective.
