Hulk Surge Edition>Previous>>556592302>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.

progress
ARE YOU BITING YOUR NAILS YET?
you WILL attack Merkat Helldiver. You wouldnt want to make Joel sad, would you? He worked really hard on his script.
>>556638293>chud bay invasion comes from Merakwhat are the odds that Joel puts in a dispatch trying to get people to gambit it?
>>556638293>gambit opportunity on merakMan the motherfuckers really really wants us to dive there, it's not even funny at this point.
goodbye hulk surge... back to unmodified CHUD bay...
what are they even mad about? to spaz like this?
>>556638178Remember, chuds. Blatantly abusing the lack of information and stupid playerbase is YOUR fault. Never Joels. Hes perfect and never does anything wrong.
Have you learned your lesson yet chud? You'll bomb the next planet you take right? You're evil you understand?
BLOCK MERAK DSS TO MERAK BLOCK MERAK DSS TO MERAK
So with the automatons now calling for peace while they stab you in the back, could we say that the Cyborgs are no other than Space Jews
>>556638441Is this a regular retard or a retard working for AH?
>resets your progress
why Merak? we are not taking a 3% decay planet in a day.
God I fucking wish we'd straight up lose this stupid MO put of spite just like with the anti-tank mines, this is beyond ridiculous.
>>556638623Its a dev. (And probably joel, given how much of a smug faggot he is)
flag missions on Hulkmania are fucking insane
don't sleep on it
>>556638654Eagle storm is (conveniently) ready in 16 hours
I like nailbiters. Do ppl genuinely enjoy janny MOs where we just clean up a bunch of planets with little resistance?
>>556638798>Railgun with extra stepsWho cares
Peace between Super Earth and the Automatons!
>>556638293>YOU VVILL MAKE 0 PROGRESS FOR 4 DAYS STRAIGHT>YOU VVILL DIVE ON THE SAME 3 PLANETS ALL WEEKENDman anytime i'm interested in an MO it always blows up in my face, this is so boring it makes me miss the half baked SE invasion
>>556638874yes, they want to be able to effortlessly win all the time, forever
>get huge surge in playerbase on the idea of invading cyberstan>stall basically all momentum which will lead to at least one filler MO before we even get there What is this strategy called?
>>556638874>>556638963I want MO's not be Joel blatantly railroading them and player choice not being an excuse to fuck us one way or the other.>>556638979The Swedish Special
>>556638935as opposed to liberating 1 planet every 12 hours and then having fucking nothing to do for the next 4 days of the MO?
>>556638293Yeah I'm shaking, totally they are nor planning to drag one more week before the cyborgs arrive
>>556638919Railgun without being in a support slot.Honestly the Killzone and Halo weapons are fine if you're not focused on leveling equipment, they're just not excellent due to the lack of being able to extend magazines and such. And the StA-52 is pretty much almost an extended Liberator anyway.
>>556639118Why not design an MO based on what the community is actually able to do instead of artificially bottlenecking them each damn time?
>>556638293genuinely stopped caring about the MO when I saw this
>>556639401Ive been playing cyberpunk. Gave me a better cyborg experience than the entirety of this MO.
>>556638874The problem is that Joel doesn't have a fucking clue how to do it without pulling bullshit out of his ass.
>>556638764HOLD THE LINE.
>>556639118>and then having fucking nothing to do for the next 4 days of the MO?It's a difference of having nothing to do "making zero progress on the same three worlds" and having nothing to do "making progress on other fronts".
The fact that you hate the game master proves that he's a good game master'nuff said
>>556639663Stupid fucking moron.
>>556639501>dive on Cyberstan>see cyborg>fire at it with my primary>he activates sandevistan and blinks to my location
>>556638874The issue is this isn't a nailbiter, that would imply the outcome wasn't predetermined.
>>556639749insult me all you like but you cannot ever call me a liar
>>556638764You better believe it, brother

Looks like the four D1's on Lesath this morning turned the tide.
>>556640081would be true if there hadn't been 2 years of evidence

>AAAAIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEE muh Chort Bay muh Aurora Bay AIIIIEEEEEE save me DSS!!!Lmao MOngoloids and botsissies. Comfy diving bugs.
>bugchasing
>>556638874People just want to feel like they're actually making progress and not being railroaded when presented with what is supposed to be a choice
If you had bombed the empty planets the invasions would have never happened, you did this to yourself chud
I hate Sweden and wish nothing but harm upon them
>>556638075YOU'RE THE BAD GUYS DON'T YOU GET IT

>>556640935>real joelpostDude come on it's not that hard to just hire some QA testers stop trying to unload YOUR job of being a seveloper onto the playerbase

>>556640935Fatshark of course
>>556640935Overkill
>Being a good DM is when you constantly piss off your playersI'm sorry, I thought the objective of a DM was to make the game fun? Reminds me of those stories about DM's throwing fits because the players didnt want to follow their railroad or when the DM throws a fit when they get pushback after trying to make someone elses character behave in a way they never would have to fit their railroad.
>>556640935Ubisoft
>>556640386no evidence yet, just "I failed so it was impossible".
>>556640935Anons will lash out at you but will not actually post a viable alternative. I can't either. All studios are dogshit lately.

Did they fix Rocket Pods yet? Can they kill a hulk?

>>556642021Darktide's problem is they update two times a fucking year.
>>556641550Only if the angle hits their heat sink or it's a Jetpack Hulk where explosions from the front can propagate to the backpack. If Rocket Pods could kill heavies in one shot then there would be no reason for Railcannon to exist.

>>5566426052/4
>>556642606they should have make the MO specifically tell us which planets to invade if they want to railroad it so fucking much, of course the playerbase is going to be smarter than the swiggers (even a somali bulbhead is smarter than Narrowhead) so we have to suffer from our success
how do I stop eating shit and dying when fighting incineration corps, I basically never did bots since fighting squids to the point of burnout last time (and barely fixing my freezing issues)
We won't give the bots an inch.
>>556642879i will give the catomatons waifus all 4 inches
>>556642845you create as much distance as possible between you and fire devs because if you don't hit their small heads over their invincible shields within 3 seconds of them spotting you, you're getting blown away for 75% of your health with 100% chance of fire status
>>556638075>Hulk Surge EditionDude, that shit is crazy. I did a Level 3 mission to kill the 100 Troopers, then took my team of randoms that were all Level <15 and they were getting shredded by the 100 Hulks on the map.It's like they want us to fail the MO.
>>5566426053/4
>>556642615>Still downplaying itJoel will never be a good GM just like how youll never be a woman
We could gambit Merak theoretically. Everyone moves there ASAP and we extend the timer with Eagle storm on Chort Bay.

>>556643369Was funnier too having that option right after the bot hack ARG. Like yeah just bomb these planets you already took, no way the bots are behind these orders no sir.
>>556643535>hmmm maybe if I double down on my adhom people won't notice how retarded I amPathetic.
Alright Joel, you win. I'll dive on fucking Merak.
>>556643657he REALLY REALLY REALLY wants us to go to the Creek biome planet and when we didn't and decided to attack his precious jet brigade he flipped the table and pulled out every possible mechanic and invented a few new ones to slow us down.
Automatons wives...
>>556643882so true sis. you tell that bigot what for
>>556643738exactly, like, obviously it looked like a trap to do it.I think they actually are just this stupid.
I'm not diving on Merak. I'm actually eager to see AH piss off everyone again so snoy has to step up and rape those fucking swede niggers.I'll be playing bugs and squids.Thanks for reading my blog.

the attack on chort bay and lesath are so joel coded
Man, seeing every content creator go on about how the new passive sucks for escapes and traversal when you can just Stim makes me realize they all missed the point: the stamina regain is theoretically supposed to be for CHARGING at enemies, like with the Breaching Hammer or Trident, so you can continue to close the distance without tiring yourself out short of making mincemeat.That doesn't make it a good concept considering how much fucking damage you take, and you may as well be using Experimental Infusion and Adreno-Defibrillator or Med-Kit for the health regen and stamina boost anyway, but I "see" the concept. There's a reason why the armors are called "Headfirst" and "Ram".
they should just hand control of the narrative to chatgpt

I've been using the new backpack grenade launcher against bots. Apparently the Swedes thought this airsoft grenade launcher was so fearsome and terrifyingly overpowered when testing it that they needed to pre-emptively nerf it into the dirt before release.Not only does it do less than half the damage of the hand-held grenade launcher, but it also has half the explosion radius. A double-whammy of suck. It feels wrong blowing up a devastator half-a-dozen times and it's not dead. And it's even worse when compared to a GL + supply pack that can refill you or your team's ammo, grenades, and stims 4 times or more.When the stealth warbond released, Alexus admitted he mostly worked on the Siege Breakers warbond, and you can tell. The so-called "Leveller" can't even fucking level bot towers. It's so ridiculous it's almost funny. Whatever ridiculous bullshit you can imagine them doing, they will happily prove you right, and then go even further beyond. We all remember their "Spread Democracy with overpowered weapons" quote, no matter how immensely Grunthead regrets it.Don't get me wrong, I enjoy playing the game, and perhaps the backpack gl feels better against bugs or squids. I just hate Sweden so much it's unreal.

>>556645515They literally don't play their own game and are scratching their think monkey craniums trying to figure out why everyone is pissed off. Waiting for them to be forcibly dropped into hulkamania like how the DBD dev was forced to experience flashlight meta.

>>556649449the one with all the hulks
>>556649449doesn't matter. what the community does is irrelevant. all happens according to Joels railroading.Just dive where your want
>>556638441Tell me, oh great GM. If the bots are strong enough to magically repell over 50% of the playerbase on Aurora Bay how the fuck are we meant to even consider taking cyberstan?

Can we see any of these "Jet Brigade factories"
So we're supposed to liberate Mekbuda/Merga (7% resistance btw) and Cyberstan in just a week?
Do any of you use GNU/Linux when you play?
>>556649686You can say a different voiceline first and immediately say Follow Me afterwards. Your character will only say the first voiceline, but the blueberries will still follow you upon your silent follow me command.

>smack war strider with hammer, it lives>smack it again, still livesOh ok never using this again,
>>556649996It'll be a repeat of Oshaune where they'll lower the resistances over a month or so. We will be dropping into meat grinder MOs for sample farming like back then.
Maybe we should just go for Merak
>>556646902>implying people won't just immediately re-dive auroraThis is a war of attrition between joel and the playerbase now. If joel wins, we all lose.
>extermination mission on hulkamaniaHoly shit that was pure ass.We did it, but it was pure ass. There's just absolutely no way to kill that many hulks that fast. No weapon or strat in the game is capable of it, even with four players.Even the normal 40min missions kinda sucked. Two of us bringing HMG's made it somewhat bearable.
>>556650276LOWER. THE. DIFFICULTY.

>>556649753Maybe at the intro in Final Fantasy 4, but never again after that.
>>556650276you will kill the hulks and you will like it
>>556638293This is the worst way to play GM>give players two paths for planets to go for to proceed onto the same location>players choose one path>throw an absolute shitfit and reset everyones progress back to the start after a few days.

Aurora Bay is better for this because itd be reminiscent of the creek, not just a hamfisted copy/paste
>>556650420Is the performance reasonable? I am considering using Arch but have heard it has performance issues. On the other hand that could be just swede coding and performance can suck no matter what but I'd hopefully like to fully switch.

>>556650782because they want those 160-200k players to actually experience the event instead of having every planet liberated before someone can finish an 8 hour work shift?
>>556650703Yeah it's great, actually more stable than on Windows. Only drawback is that HDR doesn't work right on my Nvidia card, so I have it turned off. But I think that only makes a big difference on OLED monitors
>>556650781Why take the speargun when the AMR one shots them already and has much better ROF and ammo capacity?
>>556650743Eventually, maybe. Feel free to dive on Omicron if you want. This MO isn't anything special aside from the Hulk Surge which sadly goes away in a few hours.
>>556650638>no one knows where to go now>back to headless chicken simulator because joel literally cannot allow the playerbase to take action organically This is actually asscrack. I genuinely hate this meta-progression that's exclusively the brainchild of A FUCKING IDIOT
>>556650430Progress essentially resetting if you hit a different part is fucking retarded but noted. Still,>2 hits to kill a common enemy Dropped regardless
>>556650782oh, you LIKE playing as the hecking imperialino facistarino hecking evil chonkin humans?We'll make this as miserable as possible
>>556650782Knowing them all the Cyberstan content isn't actually finished, so we're not allowed to go too fast
>>556650756>grenade encampment with 180° arc if you are lucky>like 150 max range even with 45° shotsits garbage unless you catch that one lucky cliff overseeing all the incoming hulks from above And the ball doesnt bounce off it. and a lucky sneeze towards the wall is all it takes to destroy the whole thing.
>>556651079because if you do miss you CC the hulk for like ten seconds
>>556647450
>>556651292that screenshot was of a bricks mission.there's a single chokepoint all enemies have to go through in those missions.
>>556650973No one cares about the opinions of literal sheeple. Mekbuda and the planet behind Merak have like 7% resistance anyway, it should have been fine but no joel is forcing TWO defenses at the same time
>>556651187And it will still come out buggy as shit. They better include cyborg dogs in this shit
>>556649753No, because developers always pussy out and never commit to it and instead make the enemies were fighting cartoonishly evil.
Keep diving on Aurora Bay to prove a point
when are we getting the Shredderwhen are we getting primary slot Stalwartwhen are we getting APCwhen are we getting Auto-Injectorwhen are we getting repair beamswhen are we getting upgrades (straight upgrades not faggy trade-offs)when is this game getting GOOD

for bots what should i take when i want to expendable maxObviously EAT and CommandoIs the NEAT good for bots? Should I buy the siege warbond just for the leveller and expendable maxxing? Or does the solo silo fill the same niche of short cooldown big boom
>>556652024When Sony gets sick of Swedecuck bullshit and steals their game to give to someone else But at that point it will just turn into pay2win slop

I WILL being diving on Aurora Bay only
>>556652973have you ever seen the two games side by side dumbass, this isn't an asset rip situation VERY related but as a former darktide player it always bothered me that they clearly ripped everything from vermintide right down to enemy animations and they couldn't just rig more melee options for half the character simply using what they had from VT. Polearms would have been fucking sick[/spoilers]
>>556653114Wait the hammer destroys fabs?
>>556653228asset ripping the HD1 weapons would've made the game look better so you're right
>>556653347the explosive charge on it does, yes
>>556653114i prefer>supply pack>heavy armour just pre stimming and running straight at war striders and hulks with the hammer has my blood flowing in this game for the first time in a long time.
>>556653158Ignoring the MO is for smart people.
>>556653114why not use the warp pack?
>>556653476short range + not as cinematicBut I do take it whenever I wanna go Hulk dueling
You WILL be railroaded and you WILL be happy.

>don't want to play helldivers anymore>instead of just playing something else you come here to passively aggressively bitchWhy are you all acting like women
>>556653861well it's a good thing lesath has the hulk surge modifier and chort bay is open
>>556652105Don't let the door hit you on your way out, tranny.
>>556653797It's actually a very easy defense since the DSS Eagle Storm is coming online in a few hours.
>>556653845install sim settlements 2 for fo4
>>556653861you vill liberate Merak and you vill be happy!
>>556653845Deus Ex
>>556653912You mean the hulkstorm?AT is actually complete shit against them since there's way too many for any AT weapon to handle. Bring HMG, AMR, railgun, or the speargun and snipe the eyes. I guess AC also works.
>okay guys you ahve tow options>option 1: it's easy, low resistance no modifiers, but you don't get any reward>option 2: it's hard, high resistance, extra modifiers, but if you win you'll get a big reward that'll make future progress easierRRRRREEE WHY IS HE FUCKING RAILROADING US TO THE EASY OPTION?!
>>556652748>PRIMARY SLOT STALWART WHENsince Viper Commandos
>>556654325im not even on the fucking hulkstom rock theres just no fucking at and endless deathsplease have the returnfrens go away i beg
>>556654170I hope so. They really need to update their in game info >>556654412What's funny is you know that board meeting lasted maybe an hour as they went >"Okay yeah harder planet for better reward, easier planet for easy reward and then we'll see what happens"and then schizos go >HE'S RAILROADING NOTHING MATTESR S
Hulk surge is fucking ridiculous at times
>>556654412Aurora Bay was the easier option until Joel decided after we were already 20% of the way through Aurora Bay to lower the resistanceo n Merak
>>556654501Oh so you are a bugfag?You deserve it.
>>556653912bots are the skill check faction howeverif you can aim for weakpoints you can kill everything with just an AC/AMR/HMG/LCor well you could until some retarded swigger designed the war strider to spawn in hulk numbers while having tank durability along with ragdoll spam instagib lasers
>>556654681>Oh so you are a bugfag?there are 3 bot planets in play you dumb fucking bitch
>we were on track to begin the Aurora Bay campaign with 84% of reserves>"Not so fast!" says Joel, throwing a bunch of pulled-out-of-his-asshole roadblocks in the way>waste two and a half days and another 20% of reserves retaking planets we already took, and Aurora Bay gets reset in the meantime>all the while the bots don't even get weakened in any way from us slaughtering their counterattacks>we will end up with less than two days to take Aurora Bay, which is still at 5% effective decay, against the Jet Brigade and Incel Corps>this MO is going to fail, and we're still going to have to grind through Aurora Bay and Mekbuda afterward, probably another 35% of reserves right there>that leaves us with 30% of reserve forces to take Cyberstan, which will probably suffer from Joel's patented "You have to grind against an impossible 10% decay for at least 24 hours before I make it possible to make progress!" bullshitYou can't hate him enough. You seriously can't.
>>556654170Nah, he's going to do his "Vote to keep the DSS on Lesath for 24 hours to raze the planet yet again because I'm definitely not going to throw a second attack at it in 24 hours!" bullshit and immobilize the DSS for that vote.
>>556646347going againGet in 2/4
>>556646347GGs
I hope you're all ready to fight CYBORGS
>>556650973So do it in the middle of the fucking week instead of the weekend? Great logic.
>>556655203How would razing the planet stop an invasion anyway?It's coming from Menkent, so bots could invade anyway. And with their endless numbers there's no reason they shouldn't do it to disrupt our supply lines.

>>556654501
>>556655446See, you spotted the whole problem right there. Razing the planet should absolutely not do anything since we already fully control it, that's what "Liberated" means. But because Joel's too fucking stupid to actually articulate a legitimate reason in the dispatch, that's what he went with. He could have gone with something like "To prevent Automaton forces from cutting off our supply lines, you can vote to leave the DSS behind for 24 hours to reinforce defenses" or something similar, but he went with this stupid bullshit.

>>556656172That is damn near every pve multiplayer game, and it never fucking works out and gets abandoned and it's shit and I hate it.

>>556656348He will, a few hours before his scheduled narrative update. He might as well put out an itinerary for this stuff. At least Arc Raiders let's you plan ahead for their stupid time-gated bullshit. That's all this is, a time gate.

Bots or bugs. BRING TANKS! TANK LOBBY!steam://joinlobby/553850/109775243267607737/76561198120804312
If Joel has any good sense in him, the defeat of the bots on Lesath and soon Chort Bay should cause a collapse in bot strength after losing so many troops. Of course, Joel is a capricious, spiteful swigger, so that won't happen.
>>556654412We actually do get a reward on option 1, it's the easier one and with a bonus to liberation. Option 2 was largely chosen for a bigger picture choice.
>>556652229>implying it isnt already
>>556649449Lesath then Merek
>>556657791Attack on Lesath soon, fellow Helldiver!
>>556650743We’ll probably get a bug equal attention MO in between Cyberstan and the Illuminate Cult update
I tried the tank and it was meh.It's strong in theory, but in practice it falls short due to uneven terrain and the lack of ADS making it hard to snipe. The terrain in this game is so uneven that the relatively low maximum gun depression is a major issue.That, and how it needs two players in it to use to much any effect. I don't think it brings quite enough firepower to be worth two users. Not with a 12 minute cooldown anyways.But it was fun to drive around with it. It's very strong in its niche, when you find a good spot at medium range and can just blast away. I'd almost say the HMG is more useful than the main gun.

How's the Leveller? Cooldown? Damage?It's the only thing that caught my interest in the new warbond, but I don't want to spend 1000SC on a bad strat like I did with the napalm EAT.
>>556658528>NEAT>bad stratif you think that then you'll also think the leveller is bad
>>556658528to summarize: it's a shittier Solo Silo>can't even take out mega fabs
>>556658528ranges from oneshotting dogs at 75m to not even being able to hit a fabricator from 25m; your mileage WILL vary
>>556658207It rapes anything in front of it, problem is when a patrol flanks. Requires at least 3 people coordinating for maximum effect
>>556657791Oh he'll do it. Only on Merak tho
>>556658794>weapon flies with the exact same arc with the exact same velocity with effectively zero spread every time its firedany issue with hitting things is entirely on you, not the weapon
>>556658668>Instant on demand Factory Strider killer that doesn't cuck you out if your main support weapon>BadGay and cringe.
>>556657581FVLL
>>556658972stop sucking yourself off, arrowdevfix the fucking host bugs already
>>556658665What is it good for, then?I tried it and it was too random and didn't last long enough to be worth it over napalm airstrike or orbital napalm.
>>556658528Two minute cooldown for a single LEAT. Arguably it's worse than the NEAT in terms of uses per unit time, but at least it produces results.And honestly, Dust Devils is still a decent warbond overall. It just doesn't have the massive wow factor like Servants of Freedom or Urban Legends.>>556658665The problem with the NEAT is that the cooldown is stupidly long, twice that of the EAT. It completely defeats the point of it being an "expendable" if you have to agonize on whether to call it down due to the long cooldown.
>>556659157Not him but NEAT has a different fire damage, I think it was about double the damage for the ground fire and perhaps the dot too, you can check it on the wiki, it's the same fire as the napalm strats so it does melt.But of course the napalm strats are less clunky, a case can be made to use in cities since reds are annoying to aim there.
Hulk Surge makes you realize how blatantly useless most primary are
>>556659615secondaries too, but at least it leaves time to shine for... mines.
>>556659461it's longer because the NEAT can kill entire patrols and lock down an avenue of advance if aimed correctly
>>556659615Retard
I remember being able to one tap hulks in the eye with the AMR. Was that reverted recently?
>>556658997You just described the solo silo, retard.
>>556659924get closer
>>556659615Complaining about hulk surge in the dumbest possible way lel. Try shooting the backs of the hulks. I haven't heard this sort of complaint since the creek days.
Every support weapon and stratagem with demolition is warped around the stratagem jammer. Arrowhead just needs to increase the demo resistance on the jammer and bring the demo on everything up to what the jammer used to be.
>>556659871No shit though, bringing AT Mines to the Hulk Surge is hilarious.>see a Bot Drop>throw down AT Mines underneath it and walk away>7 kills offscreen
>>556659958Solo Silo doesn't get the instant call-in time of other support weapons despite being a support weapon by technicality. It's also got a 5ish second window between the trigger pull and the missile striking the target regardless of distance.
