Siege of Transcendence edition>Previous>>557889186>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 rape 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.

>>557937362
Just stop playing on Cyberstan. The most effective form of protest is not engaging with garbage.
>>557937362Is there a valid reason why the highest difficulity shouldn't be hard?
>>557937561FULL
>got a Chinese lobby>they can just call orbital strikes of super creditsWhy does Arrowhead nerf western lobbies and doesn't allow this?
>>557937529Sorry pal, Thicc female divers do the raping amazon style
>>557937615>kill joelagreed
For me, it is the gas grenade.
>>557937804they don't, just install the CE
>finally get to transcendence>its obviously impossible given the numbers, and likely never seemed possible regardless of the bugs and balancing>'uh uh here's a side mo to take a level 1 city right at the end to uh, save some seaf guys trapped there (no there isnt actually seaf guys in the city when you go)'>it'll totally bomb the main event MO, but they can say its the player's fault for choosing to do the morally right thing and once again break their evil hecking space nazi imagery, even though it was impossible to win anywaysThey think they're clever?What a wetfart end to a pretty lousy event that even redditors are strongly questioning.And not that we lost, because ok forever hamster wheel war, its the marvel rivals feeling of not feeling you lost fairly, but you were betrayed by your teammates or the matchmaking fucked you into a rigged loss.
Yes, I WILL liberate Solidaritet to save the SEAF. This MO is rigged anyway, we need 91% of the playerbase on Transcendence to take it in time anyway.Also, after this is over I will be hunting bug divers. I plant to host D10s, bring them in and just teamkill them over and over. Throw SoS beacons and teamkill them even more. Light armor and warp pack to draw in patrols and maximize breaches to kill more and more bugdivers. This is going to be my favorite side mission
It's over.
>>557937615>kill joel
>>557937689>Doing the thingNobody is saying the game shouldn't be hard. People are saying there are an endless amount of shit weapons and stratagems that are so ineffective you wouldn't take them beyond Diff7, and this is bad for the game's sandbox.
>don't worry goys the MO is winnable :)
If your fit is shit you should be shot cause how dare you protect super earth looking like shit
>>557937362I will Liberate Solidariat to save the SEA. If you fuckers won't join me I will do it alone
>have SEAF units modeled, animated, coded, ready to go>introduce them during the big siege of super earth>have an equally big event on the siege of cyberstan>give us a million dispatches about SEAF movements on the planet>introduce a new biome that closely resembles the mega cities that SEAF were introduced in, providing an easy and flavorful new place to introduce them>don't actually provide any SEAF troopers anywhere>make us believe that only the helldivers are responsible for taking cities and SEAF is stuck with minor stuff despite that being the exact opposite of the representation of the fluff so far>also you should feel bad if you ignore the dispatch to save the imaginary troopers for no rewards and at explicit odds with the major order
You know, for all the endless bullshit, some part of me actually had hope AH would learn from their fuck ups with SE and the gloom.
>>557937362what a coping faggot to have made this image lol. yes the game has serious balance issues, some things need to be NERFED
>>557937973the game should not be balanced around the highest difficulty. if you balance it so everything is equally viable on the highest difficulty it becomes normal difficulty, and thus not challenging
>>557938073Cute furdiver.To the bug breeding pits.
>d10 cyberstan last night>throw my weapon call in right in the middle of an unobstructed street>the ball rolls>and rolls>and rolls>and falls into a lava pit>then activates and eats my cooldownJust lower the difficulty bro, right?
>>557938073>Swedes>LearningAre you new anon
>>557937973Flamethrower, gas thrower and maybe the arc gl.That's it for bad support weapons.I think some people make it a bigger problem than it is.
>>557938094name one thing
>>557938073Still don't know why they made Cyberstan a retarded planet that doesn't work like any other planet with actual trap missions that don't do anything, or give us a global lives bar that punishes us for having a surge of players
>>557937615>enemies rape freetrvth
Rape Cyberstan? No, rape Sweden
>>557938115This makes literally no sense. The RR has been D10 meta since the 60 day buffs, does it make D10 trivial? No, it's meta because almost no other AT can keep up with it in terms of performance. You don't buff the RR, you make the failing competitors more up to par.
how come no factory striders?
*hissing and screeching*STOP LOOKING, GOYIM!
>>557938010are you colorblind?
>>557938134>lower the difficultyyes then you wouldn't need your weapon call in
>>557938134>throw stratagem ball in the middle of nowhere>bounce>bounce>activates under a building overhang, dumps my portable hellbomb a mile up in the aircyberstan is fucking garbage
>>557938238Or you just nerf the singular over performing item back in line?
>>557938168warp pack
>>557938306Deaths on every single planet count towards our Cyberstan invasion reservesWhy? don't think about it
>>557938168ONBSupply pack
>have the A-10 gunrun sfx mod>Eagle storm is active>can`t hear shit bcs the Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrttttttttt sfx overload
>>557938238why should I be able to breeze through the highest difficulty in whatever random fucking loadout of bullshit I decide to bring? should my liberator/peacemaker/frag/stalwart/EMS/AP mines/flag loadout be viable on D10? or should I be required to build to the level of expected threat?
>>557937821Deal, nikkadiver
>>557938354>Nerf the RR so it's worthless and not worth taking>Everybody beelines to the Quasar or newly buffed GL or spams EATsWell done genius. You've solved nothing, you've just created a new meta in which the RR no longer exists. Did you tutelage under Alexus? The alternative asks for everything to be viable, you kneecapped one out of the sandbox to prop the others up.
>>557938375the math still doesn't work because cyberstan's been floating 75%+ playerbase anyways so the discrepancy should not be that large.
>>557938449>liberator/peacemaker/frag/stalwart/EMS/AP mines/flag loadout be viable on D10?The Liberator is viable on D10, this is you telling on yourself pretty damn hard.And everybody with a brain agrees the Super Earth Flag should provide an AOE buff to shit like reload speed or give everybody Democracy Protects in its radius.>MUH MAGICFuck off Swede. Democracy Protects itself is fucking magic.
>>557938536And buffing everything doesn't do the exact same thing?You're legit to retarded to be allowed on the internet.
>>557938536but what if making it worthless they just nerfed it to the same level as eat or quasso
>>557937615>bugs dieAt your will, going to ignore bots
>>557938689A buff todler deals only in absolutes.
>>557938650>The Liberator is viable on D10one weapon does not make the loadout
>>557938650i for one like that the flag does nothing
Why couldn't you justify the flag buff as a morale boost idgi
>>557938648180 mil dead on Cyberstan40 mil still in reserveNumbers on the invasion corridor are fucky, but somewhere around 100 mil.That's 320 mil out of 410 in totality, so 90 mil deaths everywhere else over the last two weeks.
>reddit finally coming to terms that every MO, planet, and event has always been scripted, numbers have never been true, and there never was player choice driving anythingEntirely worth it.
>failing to rescue seaf on SolidaritetOR>glorious, doomed final stand on TranscendenceI know how I'm ending my Cyberstan invasion.
>>557938536>bring RR down to same level as EAT/Quasar again>this somehow makes it worthless>implying EAT/Quasar is worthlessokay retard
>>557938786I thought it had heavy pen and actually fucked things up in melee if you lived that long
>>557938786>flag does nothingIt decorates tanks and cars and looks good planted on a fort.
>>557938168Supply Pack by far
>>557938671kek
>>557938650>>557938786super earth flag should do nothing but should activate the "call down the flag" objective without having to be in proximity of itit should be destructable and have the same health as the ballistic shield, so you can leave the flag area while still completing the objective, at the risk of having all your progress wiped if the flag is destroyed.>>557938909do people not know what a tabletop game is?
>>557938913I'm...Crashing this lobbyWith no survivors
>>557938924>I thought it had heavy penmedium
>>557938668>And buffing everything doesn't do the exact same thing?Has the Autocannon become a C-tier weapon because everything else around it received endless buffs while its largely remained unchanged? What about the EAT? Another weapon borderline unchanged beyond being able to destroy fabs post-launch.>>557938689>>557938923How do you nerf a backpack support weapon to the same level as a support-slot-only weapon? Go ahead, drop the math here. Because the backpack slot being taken up alone is a hefty requirement that is such a hit to loadout freedom that it's a major factor beyond simple damage numbers. The RR is required to hit the hardest of all the AT options, because it's a dummy-fired AT with no lock, no gimmick, that takes up both slots. You can't equip a backpack, a jump pack, the warp pack, the shield pack a guard dog, the portable hellbomb, nothing. So you, in your infinite wisdom "dropping it down to the level of the EAT or Quasar" have in fact made it worse, because the other two can go in tandem with mobility options or defensive options.
The squid event will be better.
>>557938650>>557938876It wouldn't even be a new thing. Doesn't saluting the objective flag make it raise quicker?
>>557939001hd2 isn't one though. its an illusion of one that's being played by 100,000 monkeys at typewriters. Turns out, it doesn't work well.
>>557938913>create lobby so no one can kick me>kill every helldivers that joins infuck AH
>>557938923the quasar has been the bot meta for anyone that's not completely retardedthe only thing that broke me out of using the quasar was hulkspam for that one planet, lava worlds, and the vox enginesfor normal planets, you can mapwipe with the quasar pretty trivially on D10
TOTAL HELLDIVER DEFEAT! TOTAL JOEL VICTORY!
>>557937615>kill joelIt knows
>>557939072Yes, AC has fallen off.It is objectivly weaker when compared to it's peers than it was early on.
>>557939001>>557939128The problem is that he's trying to run the largest open-table Braunstein of all time like a 5e storygame.
A good night's rest and we've got a fresh feeling to dive withsteam://joinlobby/553850/109775244568644116/76561197995866779Cyberstania D10ia and transcendence, we'll see if people want solidaritet or not but I at least want to drop onto the capital once
>>557938923>bring RR down to same level as EAT/Quasar againSo I'll just take the Quasar then, why would I take a weapon that robs me of my ass slot for no discernible benefit? You've just made the Maxigun or the BFGL again, a worse version of alternatives.
>>557939072there are knobs you can turn like calldown cooldown, ammo capacity, reload speed, damage number, enemy health to fuck with breakpoints, ergonomics, probably a few things i'm forgetting. the damage number is just the most obviousi get that RR is the heaviest, simplest AT support weapon available that doesn't make it literally impossible to balance dude
>>557938536>nerf the RR back in line>people start using the other support weapons because RR isn't BiS anymore>buff the other support weapons to be in line with RR>people start using the other support weapons because RR isn't BiS anymoreYou might be very retarded.
>>557939090Highly doubtful
>3 new enemies as a sub-faction (really only 2, because the 2 cyborg infantry are same skeleton and just some different animations)>entirely broken biome (without the option of taking it away for 5 weeks to fix it)>most blatantly railroaded event thus far, impossible to hide the heavy number manipulation, especially after it got hacked>most dogshit ending possibleOh, they really cooked for this title update.At least the warbonds were fun, but they came before anyways.
>>557939072>Has the Autocannon become a C-tier weapon because everything else around it received endless buffs while its largely remained unchanged?kinda yeah
>Was already unlikely we were going to pass MO but at least we're on the last city we need>QUICK HELLDIVERS YOU MUST FOCUS ON A DIFFERENT AREA TO SAVE THE IMAGINARY ROLEPLAY TROOPS>21% of the people on Cyberstan actually do thatI dont know whose more retarded, Joel or the playerbase
>>557939001This is a bad tabletop game where the GM constantly presents us with choices and then punishes us for taking the wrong one.
>>557939406>I change the balance so nobody even considers using the RR anymore>This is good
>>557939141How is that impressive when Joel literally controls every single factor? He could set our reinforcements to 0 and come up with a retarded blurb to instantly "win". Its only a bit less railroading than what he already did
>>557939308How is a reloadable AT that let's me bring an extra red ever worse than the gaysaar?It still kills dogs faster because you're not cooldown cucked out of being a useless AT weapon.Also maxigun is great, i don't know why you'd think otherwise.
C4 pack my beloved.... I didn't what sex was until I found you
>>557939459>I dont know whose more retarded, Joel or the playerbasethe playerbase since we always fall for joels bullshit
>>5579393062/4all are welcome
>>557939406>nerf the RR back in line>people start using the other support weapons because RR isn't BiS anymoreAnd the game gets harder>buff the other support weapons to be in line with RR>people start using the other support weapons because RR isn't BiS anymoreAnd the game gets easierThat's the big thing
>>557939459We need 91% of the playerbase to take Transcendence in time anyway, at least on Solidaritet we might get a funny news message about saving them before the endless Swede scolding of us for not understanding invisible galactic war mechanics they have never once explained
>>557939459m-mayber liberating solidaritet will give a big liberation bonus to transcendance ha ha...
>>557939442The cyborgs are significantly different though.One rushes you with smokes and a shotgun and is unarmored and one stands back buffing stuff and does have armour.
>>557939574If you buff something to be in line with something else, you aren't making the game easier. You're providing more variety for the same level of difficulty. Choice is good. Fuck you.
>>557939306full
Save SEAF-chan, just like in the movies helldivuh
>>557939459its the opposite. the event got painted into a corner being strictly impossible to win, so this is the bailout they made, to shift blame to the players for getting distracted (functionally irrelevant since its mathematically impossible to win), or as a consolation prize of being le heroes for abandoning the mission to save the seaf guys (they didn't even have the courtesy to activate seaf npcs in the city as almost content)
>>5579375613/4 will wait
>>557939656NTA but armored shotgunners spawn at heavy outposts sometimes too
>>557939072>How do you nerf a backpack support weapon to the same level as a support-slot-only weapon?by going back to the old balance the three had before the 60 day patch?RR had burst damageEAT had flexibilityQausar had sustainablythey all did the same damage back then so it was a question of which trait you valued more
>hurr durr the RR is O PEETry actually using it for once you dumb fuck.It is incredibly limited due to ammo.
>>557939574I would be fine with stuff getting buffed if we got a new difficulity that is hard enough to justify it.
>>557939712I still dont understand why they didn't give up SEAF people in the city. Whats the point of all these SEAF messages if we see literally zero real impact of it.
>>557939521>How is a reloadable AT that let's me bring an extra red ever worse than the gaysaar?Because in your hypothetical where you've brought it down to the level of the Quasar, you've now made the Recoilless worse. Because it takes a backpack slot while the Quasar does not. With the Quasar, I can just take the Warp Pack and completely undo all of its problems in regards to the cooldown allowing the enemy to get in my face, because I can just kite them till the end of the mission timer.Remember how everybody thought the C4 was going to be utter trash because it also took up both slots? And then it turns out it's just the stealthy Recoilless that can delay the detonations so you can fuck off before you get clocked by the alerted patrols? If the C4 was weaker, if it took 2 bricks to kill a Hulk or a Charger always, it would be relegated into the trash bin. Nobody would take it, especially when Dynamite exists and achieves the same thing with a Supply Pack in regards to base destruction.
If Vox Engines ran over their own troops instead of just.... phasing through them Some of these fights wouldn't be frustrating.
>>557939782Hard to do when the game already has 10.
>>557939459Retardation levels are as follows from lowest to highest>joel- knew exactly what players would do to fuck over the MO>solidaritet divers- fell for it>bot divers on other planets- aren't even helping on the faction >the 20k bugchasers- are the reason we couldn't take transcendence to begin with
>>557939842Because having the SEAF here would be really cool and the Swedish dev must actively avoid doing anything cool on purpose
>>557939881realism for thee but not for me
>>557939468that's every tabletop game I've ever played lmaoi do agree though. It's funny to me that the devs so obviously don't understand actual military operations despite claiming they're making a "grunt fantasy"If you don't want to wipe cyberstan, just call it a raid. >>557939770this, RR is a crutch for low-levelers who can't aim and don't understand that loadouts can either be fun and engaging or metafull expendables loadout is fun because you maximize the time spent moving and calling stratagems per matchquasar/pack loadout is a heavy bot meta and you can easily do a deathless D10 with itthe RR sucks and people complaining that it's OP are voluntarily making the game not fun for themselves by refusing to either close with the enemy or think outside the box
>>557939770>grabs a supply box or an ammo box
>>557939574well, almost. technically if you buffed everything to the RR's level, the game would remain just as easy as it is.but the problem is that it's too easy. so they should nerf weapons instead. and the other problem is that they then overshoot the buffs and there's just power creep over time which has led to the current state of the game>>557939782this is how you end up with Helldivers 1 "DIFFICULTY 15 SUPER MEGA HELL" lol. i'm not a fan. plus it makes the enemies feel like tissue paper if you keep making the player's weapons stronger and spamming more and more enemies. game feel is an important consideration here, not just challenge level. if it goes too far it becomes EDF (inb4 but i like EDF)>>557939680moron
>>557939881Vox engines aren't grunts so they're not limited by the same bullshit (like collision) the players are to force the grunt fantasy. Hope this clears it up.
>>557939876warpshitter pack should be nerfed into the ground imo but that's a separate conversation
>>557940034>>557939960
>>557939782>the "super awesome skilled players" are whining that the game isn't hard enough and that we need a new difficulty>Arrowhead adds a new difficulty>the "super awesome skilled players" are whining that the game unfair and not fun but totally not too difficult>Arrowhead be nerfs the enemies and buffs the weapons>the "super awesome skilled players" are whining that the game isn't hard enough and that we need a new difficultyEnemy buffs are needed.
>>557939967You have to call down resupplies whenever it's off cooldown, mostly to the detriment of your teammates if they're spread all over the map.If someone gets the resupply before you you're fucked.>ammo boxWow a whole one (1) bean per box.
>>557939459Resistance is too high on Transcendence to actually take it. Even if we had 100% of the playerbase we'd make like 0.2% progress per hour, or 500 hours to take it.Might as well go for the SEAFies when Joel rigged the capital to be mathematically impossible to liberate.He overplayed his hand and railroaded too hard with Cyberstan. Even the retards on reddit are starting to notice. My only hope for this awful war and its dogshit tier DM is that the normalfags are starting to get mad at the obvious and brutal railroading.
>>557940101nuking sweden is always a viable option
>>557939994oshaune and the commando missions were the perfect difficulty cranknothing needs to be done with the weaponsit was hilarious to watch retards get into infinity firefights because they were too retarded to just not shoot at a patrol 50yd awayit was hilarious to watch retards get murked in the tunnels because the only way they knew how to play the game is turretspam
>>557940081Even disregarding the Warp Pack>Quasar + Supply PackBusted>Quasar + Jump PackBusted>Quasar + Guard Dog (Gun/Gas)Busted>Quasar + Shield Pack + Fortified ArmorBustedThe freedom to slot anything on your ass is like a good 50% of the power ramp that non-backpack support weapons get. So backpack-bound support weapons are kinda required to be outstanding at their role to counteract the loss of freedom.
Surely i'm missing the memo here
>>557940174>oh no, our poor infinite resupplies with a 2 minute cooldown, whatever will we do
>>557938134>give me a proper answerSwedenNot even joking, valheim has been worked on for 5 years and they still haven't released the deep north biome, progression is still fucked and a chore, mistland is still annoying to navigate, ashland is still the worst biome with absurd spawn rates and these dipshits would rather buy a horse, develop a valheim-themed boardgame, pad their steam news with acreenshots of what others made with cheats on and sell FUCKING VALHEIM-THEMED SCENTED CANDLES than work on the game and god help you if you dare to confront them about it, you will be hit back with passive aggressiveness typical of swedes and a ban for good measureAH is not the biggest offender but even they need a metaphorical boot on the neck to get them to do something meaningful
>>557940139apart from redditors who are actually retarded, vox spawn rates are a completely valid complaintall missions on cyberstan should have been commando missions until 2-3 cities were acquired and vox spawn rates should have been 1/5 what they currently are
>>557939090Certainly more enemy units at least.Better up in the air. When it happens who knows.
What kind of retard schedules the big end event of your major content update to end when people are working during the week.
>>557940370Again, try actually using the RR. Your ignorance is showing.
>>557940139>Enemy buffs are needed.I miss the days when d9 would spawn 6 bile titans that required 2 RR headshots each to kill. Fighting that on Fenrir when the asteroid indicators were bugged and you would sometimes just get killed randomly and there was basically nothing you could do about it was unironically my favorite patch lol. Nothing has really captured that hectic feeling since, although the tunnel missions kind of came closeAnd even back then on Fenrir I was thinking "This is great, I hope they make higher difficulties in the future"
>organic narrative>look inside>CO2
>>557938134>call in tank on a huge spot of flat open terrain>pelican hovers over that spot for ten seconds>decides to back off and drop the tank on top of a factory spireTruly skill issue, I must lower the difficulty
SAVE SEAF-CHAN!!!!!
>>557939876C4 does less damage than RR though, if you nerfed RR to EAT level it would hit pretty much the same breakpoints as C4, you'd just trade range for having a stationary reload.Backpacks are overrated, the supply pack is god tier busted and everything else i find to barely be worth it when you could just bring another red or green or expendable weapon.Backpacks are mostly just flavour like picking between AC, LC, AMR and HMG.
>>557940343solo silo is disposableI'm guess his plan is to primarily use jetpack + quasar to stealth around the map busting small bases/objectivesthen when he comes to a big base/objective he calls down the C4, does a stealth loop around/through the base eventually returning to his dropped quasar/jetpack and then detonates all the C4 he placed and moves on
>>557940560The video is enough, no need to narrate
>>557940343which part are you having trouble understanding?
Was this the most blatantly rigged MO yet?
AH sees the love for the SEAF everyday and that's why they created this dispatch but they still won't release the stratagem that's been in the files for two years or even just add them to more mission types. A text box is the most effort they'll do.
>>557940229>My only hope for this awful war and its dogshit tier DM is that the normalfags are starting to get mad at the obvious and brutal railroading.The problem is that the swedes response to that would be to make everything extemently winnable to stem any protests. And that would be just as, if not more, boring. They really need to rethink this whole fixed narrative thing. I believe is actually a crutch they use to justify the lack of effort they make in developing the game, as they tie new enemy units to big releases, and they only do big events like twice a year. Its not like in real life where a military only waits until a big offensive to introduce a new unit, they put it into service ASAP.
>>557940247>nothing needs to be done with the weaponswell, I would like it if they were balanced against each other lol
>>557940247apart from the bugs release oshaune was perfect, i had like a 40% winrate WITH hdg lobbies and lets not even talk about full clears. Most fun i had playing this gameAnyone who ever said anything about difficulty needs to go back to D4. D10 should not even be feasable as a solo
>>557940594desu they should just gut the Supply Pack and replace it with an Ammo Pack that carries more boxesit'd still be really strong, but not as busted as "refill your ammo, stims, and grenades with one button press"
>>557932252>>557937570gg's
bug lobby doko
>>557940475Titans lost that fear they would instill when they showed up.It's rare to see a heavy survive a drop/breach for more than a second nowadays.
>>557940667We haven't had a Joel deleting all our progress on a planet he didn't want us to take yetThen again Aurora Bay was kinda like that, just a bit more subtle with the stupid invasions and massive resistance increase.
>>557940594>Backpacks are overratedDisagree. I find people still really underestimate just how broken the Gun Dog is because nobody ever seems to use it after release. Unlike your sentries, the Gun Dog is programmed to dome enemies perfectly. The thing is a headshot monster and will take out entire patrols by itself. On D10 Squids, the thing is a pure life saver.Likewise, everybody sleeps on the Gas Dog from Chemical Agents, because most people dropped it before its massive range buff and intelligent application of gas where it won't touch enemies already affected by it. Again, on D10 Bugs, especially against the gloom faggotry, this thing drops the felt difficulty down like crazy.Warp Pack is the only stratagem that makes heavy armor not feel like shit to use. I can't stomach fat diving without it.
You ARE diving Solidaritet, right? You wouldn't let her die, of course.
>>557940667no, the last one was. This MO is hardly rigged, since it has a binary win condition. They knew it was unwinnable because of the resistance rate and reinforcement status, but that does not mean it was rigged. The last MO was literally rigged because of the win condition it required. and it replacing one that was more reasonable.
Funniest thing is the around 5k people not on either mega factory.
>>557941005I'm fucking bugs as usual, who needs human whores anyway
>>557940803At the very least the backpack shouldn't get additional charges from resupplies.You can effectively double the yield from a resupply by eating from your backpack and then restocking.Shit's bonkers.
>>557941005i hate women so yes.
rape doko
So what excuse is Joel going pull out of his ass to say we cant keep fighting on Cyberstan tommorow once we fail the MO, the whole point of us razing Merak was to keep it as a foothold
>>557941051That's me medal farming sorry sis
>>557937973I really don't trust anyone saying this when I keep hearing eye-rolling shit like "all assault rifles are dogshit"there are a handful of strats and weapons on the weaker side but there's little that are weak enough that I would NEVER take them into D10 for fun and be able to do okay. /r/hdg has always been both upplaying whatever's nerfed and downplaying whatever's good to decent. idk bro i'm down with having to build for the mission, it's been fun teambuilding and problem solving and not just bringing "fucking whatever" like usual. if anything they should do a wider variety of missions that encourage you to play with different stratagems
>>557940809so after a couple of games yesterday I've concluded that popping a vox ABSOLUTELY sets off some script where if you stand still, you get targeted with instakill debris>>557941005the headcanon of my diver is that he does not give a shit about humanity and just lives to blow shit up and kill things, then does the gosling stare back on the super destroyer until he's deployed again
>>557940667the one prior was the most blatantly rigged, they literally stopped it from incermenting for hours at the end.
>>557941005There are no Seafs in the operations you retard. Fucking Sw*d*s.
>>557939459We're not capturing the capital unless the entire playerbase decided to drop on it, might as well go save the imaginary roleplay troops that doesn't even exist on the map so I can get more SEAF fanarts and maybe an SEAF deployment strategem.
>>557941172That's not even a good excuse you'd get the same amount of medals if you were on the correct mega factories.
>>557941128Bots will automatically take it, it's razed so we don't have any defenses silly!
>>557941128How is the war even going to continue when reserves run out and we're literally out of Helldivers?
>>557941208and then he blows up and gets replaced with an identical gosling clone
>>557940636Just everything really, just an odd choice of things imo? Although I'm not as smart as a lvl 150 player
>>557940667not just MO but the entire event>no explanation of why we're allowed to/should raze planets>spin wheels recapturing 2 planets because of it as punishment>community focuses for once, chooses aurora bay to kill jet brigade>gm lowers resistance on merak to force a split>cyberstan defenses start out insanely high>china with the haymaker>cities stay open to keep population split for as long as possible>reinforcement counter being game-wide>despite making up 25% of the population bugdivers spent 35% of the reinforcements
>>557941183>I really don't trust anyone saying this when I keep hearing eye-rolling shit like "all assault rifles are dogshit"Valid complaint from consoledivers because precision aiming with light pen weapons is horrible and they're basically unusuable on gamepad. The reason the Censor is the first universally beloved marksman rifle is because stealth makes Devastators stand still, so headshots come easy with the gun.

Without SEAF on the planet there's no reason for helldivers to deploy unless it's a special operation like the gloom expeditions where the goal is explicitly to not take territory
>>557941305Funniest thing is we spent more Helldiver blood on Oshuane and this wasn't even a problem.

>>557941454WellUhYou see....STOP NOTICING THINGS
>>557941343add strong aim assist like halo or beat down microsoft's door and command them to put gyro in their controllers so it's an industry standard. I played HD2 on deck for awhile and it was fine with gyro

>>557941331>no explanation of why we're allowed to/should raze planetsThis one was especially bad for a lot of meta reasons. Having that mechanic show up during the hack ARG was the biggest one since it completely changed the context people had for it and automatically assumed it to be an enemy plot.
>>557940594>Backpacks are overrateddepends on which one>Supply Pack is straight up overpowered>Dog Packs are really strong>Jump and Warp Packs are excellent mobility>Ballistic Shield is niche at best>Diaper is meh>Hover Pack is a memeIf anything, more experimentation with backpacks would be nice, but I doubt we'll be ever getting anything that isn't another dog or backpack weapon
>>557941616>Diaper is mehDiaper?
>sole reason we attacked Cyberstan is because death star plans got stolen>lose the MO to stop itWhat did Joel mean by this? I'm sure he isnt even gonna acknowledge it.
>>557941449that's what i've never gotten about the "grunt fantasy shit"at the lowest power, helldivers are basically MARSOC Raiders, so Tier 2 SFin-universe they're seven foot tall supersoldiers woken from hypnagogic training to deploy backpack nukes and singlehandedly kill two story tall abominations
>>557941208Honestly some of them are pretty bad, but not all of them. I'm still bewildered by Arrowhead doing nothing with the LibConc, for example.

That's a kill count beyond the elite of the elite, that's fucking made-up beer story levels of operator power fantasy. But Helldivers are meant to be worthless grunts playing mock-up?

Oink for me, piggy. You can go back to your single-player games and indulge in your safe space.
Arrowhead has states that now that Tencent has bought them out they will now remove SC farming
>>557942108Frankly, I'm almost insulted by the name. At least Just Cause was planned and executed well. They could have gone with Cyberstani Liberty since we've got the WMD analogue, but noooo.
>>557941405The vox might be limited in biomes for a bit unless AH decides to decrease the amount of random space rocks and ditches in their map gen by like 50%But that might make the frv fun to use and we can't have that

"uhm actually divers are top tier special forces" is so obnoxiousit's more fun if they're untrained disposable chudsthe tone of the game almost entirely treats them like untrained disposable chudsthe game becomes gradually more fucking boring whenever you cave to people who want them to be super top tier space marine spec ops. let divers be kind of shit, it's their identity. they're cannon fodder that occasionally exceeds themselves >but they kill so many enemies per life!pitch me a co-op game where they want you to feel like disposable cannon fodder, but the average player only kills one or two enemies per life on average. how does that work/is fun
>>557940953gundog is great but it can run out of ammogasdog is so good on bugs I wouldn't even be mad if it got nerfed
>>557939306still still 3 3 / / 4 4join join join!!!>>557942421frv is already fun to use on cyberstan in blitz missions
>>557941005Joel needs to keep track of his fucking divisions, how did the 77th even get encircled anyway? last we heard of it was it falling back after getting mauled, it should've been the 12th Armored Division that got encircled after its punch through cyberstani lines.
>>557941449>SEAF is the force that fights the pitched front line battles and actually liberates/secures territory. everything we do only serves to weakend the enemy and aid SEAF's efforts. This was true up until Cyberstan where the planet is only taken by taking megafactories and only helldivers are being deployed to the megafactories while SEAF are just fighting outside them and only move in after Helldiver operations have captured the factory. It's a fucking retarded narrative we have here
>>557942280I'll forever stand by the fact that a long-term GM-driven Galactic War was a bad idea. Emergent storytelling through random Galactic War scenarios would've been kino.
>>557942097>bot dive to rescue SEAF-chan>but actually you don't see any SEAF>and playerbase is split between the factories>and Cyberstan is still miserable to playhmmmmm methinks I'm gonna squid dive today
>>557941616>Supply Pack is straight up overpoweredonly situationally. On Cyberstan it meta because of the lack of resupply on the map. On normal maps that are both not as intense as Cyberstan and have the normal disbursement of resupply items scattered across the map, I can easily not bring it even if pugging/rescue diving.
REMINDER: Even if 100% of the playerbase was on Transcendence we would only have +0.75% liberation per hour. This is a scripted loss. Dive Solidaritet and hope Joel scripts us some bonus, or at least we get a morale victory.
>>557942454>pitch me a co-op game where they want you to feel like disposable cannon fodder, but the average player only kills one or two enemies per life on average. how does that work/is funFoxhole. ARMA.
>>557942454Exactly. It's fucking stupid and I will no longer pretend that it isn't. This is just canon, Super Earth spends insane amounts of money to create special forces troops with an average combat life expectancy of two minutes.
>>557941746>"grunt fantasy shit"Just retarded swedish thoughts, specifically their CEO. That part just doesn't make sense, neither in game or lore. But that guy is very obsessed with it.Each "disposable grunt" Helldiver we send down is valuable enough to retrieve later with a Pelican, its supported by his own super destoyer, has a full knowledge of multiple SEAF weapons/war gear, gets access to a vast arsenal and has the potential of delivering hundreds of casualties if not more to the enemy, alongside destroying valuable infrastructure or retrieving important assets.
>>557942605>Dive Solidaritetill dive bugs to simply spite you
>>557942440god, I want AH to release multiple news articles about how the SEAF now distrust and have lost faith in the Helldivers for failing on Cyberstan.
>>557942615most people i personally know who have tried these games think they are incredibly boring in pve, and don't most people who play ARMA PVE want to larp as operators who kill ton of dudes solo anyway pvp is different because killing one or two people per life is just how it's going to be for most people
>>557942570This. Malevelon Creek happened without railroading, and people wouldn't shut the fuck up about it even now.A GM's job in a game like this should be to only fine-tune the war as it happens and create a narrative around it, not start out with a narrative in mind and try to force the players to play along.

>>557942570I think it's fine to have story beats they want to hit.They should use MOs for actual major events to guide players, and outside of events just let us box the AI in a sandbox and maybe tweak numbers here and there to have some back and forth on the map ad stop stuff from getting wiped out entirely.Right now everything is to locked down, MOs are just seen as busy work and to guide the player base to do what joel wants.

>>557942796ARMA is the purest form of grunt fantasy available (they model the weapon performance to the absolute realistic detail, and some militaries have used it for training), but in your not disposable cannon fodder, you just die like anyone else would die in the same real life situation.

ARMA and Foxhole doesn't have SEAFchan or Eagle-1 so hard pass
>>557942025>They will scream when the MO fails and everyone gets upset.This was gonna happen either way, might as well do something instead of nothing.
>>557942880>A GM's job in a game like this should be to only fine-tune the war as it happens and create a narrative around it, not start out with a narrative in mind and try to force the players to play along.The problem is AH is hellbound on developing around a fixed story and its release cadence becaue they are lazy and stupid.

>>557943221you have to catch me first nigger
>>557942570I think the issue is the potential is there, the invasion of Super Earth could have been even better if the stakes were real. There's a reason the community stuff like Equality at Sea get traction. But the issue if that we aren't allowed to dictate terms. I think the issue is more they design scenarios with endings in mind instead of designing scenarios and letting the community just run with it.
>>557943215This. The problem is that the war plays around releases, and not the releases playing around the war.They shoulda kept HD1 style of cycling wars, and just throw in events as they're done, and each war eventually gets more stuff and re-uses old stuff, so maybe in one war the TCS works as intended and kills bugs off quickly, or another instead of a super colony, mutates them into a new subfaction or shit.
>>5579375613/4 we are hunting bugs
>>557943215But wouldn't trying to develop around a fixed story be more than work than just letting the players create a story for you? They could just make a bunch of strategems and items ahead of time, then only release some of them when the players liberate or lost a related planet. If they prep ahead of time like any good GMs should, the only "new" items they'd need to develop are aesthetic stuff like cape or background.

>>557943271not doing this is criminal because IIRC the origin of the helldivers is putting down an insurrection by dropping through the ceiling of parliament or somethingI don't trust AH to not fuck up a PVP mode so I won't even say anything about that

>>557939896>blaming bugdiver gamerdads trying to have fun with high killcounts and starship troopers power fantasies after workcome on now
>>557942454This is both an issue of narrative and ludonarrative dissonance. Because no in fact they aren't shown as disposable cannon fodder in universe, because that's what the SEAF are, who are thrown into meat grinders by the thousands to die in some nowhere hole while Helldivers work and die to give them an inch. In fact the casualty rate for divers isn't even that insane it's about on par with actual spec ops forces during WWII because turns out dropping behind enemy lines is in fact not an easy thing to do during total warfare and people only think spec ops means some badass operators instead of guys who ARE going to die because we've been living in the US hegemony where spec ops doesn't actually do anything as dangerous.
>>557943801YesFuck you
>>557943706This. Helldivers can be extremely competent at combat while extremely incompetent at staying alive because that's just the kind of soldiers Super Earth foster by idealising sacrificing the individual for democracy.
>>557942796Arma pve is either spec ops superior tech and smaller scale stuff or large scale horde killing and getting killed by heavy armour in my experience.
>>557943836
>>557943801The after work excuse doesn't hold when that 20k bugdivers is consistently there 24/7 at all times. There has not been anytime where that number hasn't been in that area for the entire event, weekdays or weekends, day or night, there is always around 20k bugdivers doing nothing.

>>557939459Transcendence can't fall even if the entire playerbase focuses it, epic wholesome saving SEAFies is going to be the consolation prize and the story bit AH has actually writte.

If they prep ahead of time like any good GMs should, the only "new" items they'd need to develop are aesthetic stuff like cape or background.Yes, but like I said, they are lazy and stupid. The lazy part comes in when they can go to a white board and schedule out just how much work over a certain amount of time will be done, and being Swedes thats very little work indeed. There stupid because what they should do is just release units onto worlds as they are developed, they just appear like they would in a reali life conflict. There should not be a "story" just broad offensives gradually working their way to super earth. But their joke of a galactic war formula absolutely depends on concentrating the playerbase in one spot.
>>557943706All the helldivers I play are extremely competent, all the helldivers my friends play die in silly wacky ways like standing under a tank drop and being confused why they died
>>557942931>major order: complete 10 million operations on Cyberstan>high command has determined that the cyborgs are not yet sufficiently free, and have ordered a surge of helldivers to Cyberstan>major order: complete 15 million operations on Cyberstan
>>557943614>not doing this is criminal because IIRC the origin of the helldivers is putting down an insurrection by dropping through the ceiling of parliament or something"Have I told you about the Hellpods yet? These massive near-suicidal pods were invented to counter the threat of the oppressive regime of the socialists that had dug themselves in on Northman's Creek. Super Earth was unable to gain air superiority and therefore we developed these supersonic pods equipped with stabilizers and extreme shock absorbers that can hit a space-coin and allow for drops into basically any type of terrain. As fifty Helldivers dropped into the Parliament and quickly relieved the regime from power... and life, their troops scattered and the fight was easily won. Northman's Creek was once again united with the federation of Super Earth."
thing is that developing a modern AAA game with outcomes for either "the main fucking planet of the helldivers blows up" or "it doesn't" just doesn't sound feasible to me, everything takes too long.I don't mind the way that it is, I like the overarching narrative where you see the galaxy map change with time, but there's probably a better way to provide a feeling of agency

The MO is gay anyway because we could have taken every single megafactory on the planet except the last one before we used up our reserves and it would have been a total failure anyway even though we secured 90% of the planet and logically SEAF would be able to take the last one in time. None of the metrics used in this event make any fucking sense when you think of them within the context of the others

Just random patrol missions where you may or may not run into enemies, or maybe you'll just walk into an IED and have to respawn.
>>557944348
>>557944114the only way I can see an "end" is if AH functionally wipes themselves from the game, super earth is lost, and the game continues with "the helldivers are in space without command and without the SEAF and they just float around with the DSS gangraping planets until either all three enemies are genocided or all the helldivers die
>>557944170The very act of standing against the popular choice has in itself become the popular choice. Ergo they are cattle. If everyone sacrifices the mission to save some non-existent SEAF force, nobody is actually sacrificing anything.
>>557944238Oh wow a link.Quote the part that proves your point dumbass.
>>557944385I did. "The Helldivers Division of the Super Earth Armed Forces[1] are an elite fighting force of shock troopers renowned for their bravery and incredible dedication to Super Earth. Trained in the harshest conditions, they execute Missions far behind enemy lines. While entering a mission, Helldivers enter through Hellpods fired from their personal Super Destroyer.From there, they are to accomplish their objectives behind enemy lines while disrupting hostile presence on the planet as much as possible, all in the name of working towards securing planets for the interests of Super Earth. While fighting, they are almost always heavily outnumbered and outgunned, against hundreds of foes with entrenched positions. In the event that a Helldiver gives their life in battle, more Helldivers are on standby to replace their fallen ally.Super Earth ensures that the Helldivers are well equipped. Every Helldiver is armed with Weapons and Armor of their choice. They are also equipped with beacons, which Helldivers activate to call in Stratagems from their Super Destroyer.In Super Earth society, Helldivers are hailed as heroes of the fallen and martyrs for Super Earth."
>>557944512>>557944515
>>557944483There is no mission. It was a lie. People want to go save the SEAF because that megafactory doesn't have the worst fucking enemy faction in the game shitting it up. The popular choice is to maximize fun
>>557944463How does she sleep on her side with those big ass ears.
>every individual helldiver has their own super destroyer supporting them!no they don't, they're supporting the division frozen on-board your ship. they're supporting YOU because they deploy one diver at a time because gamepurae
>>557939001Play with an actual good GM sometime. It's not nearly as scripted as you've been led to believe. You have real choice in a tabletop game and only garbage GMs force you down a specific path.
Can anyone give a link to the table?
>>557944790Helldivers are basically living targeting systems that help cut through Bot jamming / Terminid spore / Illuminate fuckery that stops the Destroyer from just bombing everything. Also it doesn't hurt we can do a lot of damage on our own with guns and stuff too.
>>557944790>they're supporting YOUNah, you're supporting THEM. A Helldiver is a forward observer high on his own farts.
>>557939090There's some faggot redditor out there trying to say the cultists are still scrapped because it requires "down patching" to get them to work. Despite the units all getting new effects and models since the launch leaks. Despite the squids getting basically zero updates and not even a full planetary tileset since they were introduced. Fuckin lmao.
>>557944812this. The best GMs have, at best, a very loose narrative in mind, but depend on the players to shape the narrative. Matt Mercer is not a good DM. Popular, yes, but not good. A Critical Role game is an actor leading other actors through a script.
I like seeing the universe change with the narrative and I don't really think that huge swings in the narrative based on player input are all that feasible for a 3D big budget games like this unless they expanded the team significantly or something and started running a sweatshop like epic.There's probably something you could do to make emergent stuff more feasible and possible without causing issues with the overaching narrative but idk what it is
>>557944483>sacrifices the missionTaking the capital is literally impossible at this point, why would people spend time bashing their heads on a brick wall they can't break when a slightly more fun brick wall they can break exists?
whats the peak sissy bottom dive in (gets dived in, doesn't do the diving) loadout

>>557945104Stun build.
>>557945004At table sizes like this, you don't have a story, you have to go old-school. The DM's job is to play the dungeon interacting with the players. You don't guide them, you react to them.
the whole cyberstan event might just have made me switch from the thermite to the dynamite shits too good
>>557944972they are scrapped sorry anon, enjoy your overseer variant #4 and another zombie enemy
>>557944515>Trained in the harshest conditionsWe have literally played through the training, it's 90% over the top propaganda to suck off the recruit and demonize the enemy, 10% running through machine gun fire, then being given a cape and frozen.Helldivers are the fanatical enough to be given extremely powerful strategem weapons and do behind the lines smash and grab raids against garrisons and a few airdropped response forces, not the actual main army of the enemy with artillery and armor, that's the SEAF's job.>well my Helldiver is an elite CQC Solid Snake god veteran that never dies and 5000 solo kills-I bet they are, and those exist, but it's a minority
>>557944790Also, there's a Helldiver's contract too. In which it says that the Super Destroyer is loaned to them and that "The heirs, successors, and assigns of The Enlisted have no right, claim or interest in the ownership or command of the Super Destroyer."They're rented carpools.
>>557940343This is reasonable load out. Solo silo is for jammer, quasar is for outposts, C4 is more taking the main objectives & heavy surge drops
>>557943351It's better with mods or a gamemaster directing the enemies around. Joel could stand to do some Zeusing considering how fucking bad he is at actual gamemastering.
>>557945220Can it kill hulks and fabricators?
This retarded discourse is proof that 40keks and especially marinetards are a migrating locust plague that are attracted like flies to shit to games with superficially "based" vibes then torpedo all conversation and worldbuilding to make it about their dogshit setting.
>>557945004Matt Mercer is a good DM, he always gives his players choices. Problem is his theater kid players just run away from everything. When he does railroad them they have a good time, when he doesn't they just run and shop and roleplay in coffee shops and taverns. You railroad when you have a cattle playerbase. AH desperately wants a playerbase that doesn't think and just does whatever, its why they scold you whenever you try to get people on the right planet
>>557940454This is really my biggest complaint about Cyberstan. The Nordic might be taking winter vacation or whatever, but im fucking working during all this
>>557941326well don't let the level fool you but a few things to help >a lot of people seem to be running the armor to 'get in and get out' to minimize deaths>build seems to mostly be about being able to take things out or get away quickly or bothnot sure what the rest of the load out was but i'd say that person did not want to engage and probably was going to evac asaphth
>>557945385>Can it kill hulksif you manage to blow it up behind them yes wich isnt hard considering they always b line towrds youCan it kill fabricators if you throw in the vents both small and those big ones
>>557940560Pilot coordinates were hacked by bots
People are NOT happy with the galactic war…
How do I farm SC bros? Farm low level mission POI's? Or do I just hope that I get into a Chinese lobby or something?
>>557945385if you get the timing down it's an insta kill if they're over top of it or even if they run slightly past it sometimes. Has huge demo force too, you don't need to spike it into the vents on small fabs, can just toss it down beside it
>>557945464>AH desperately wants a playerbase that doesn't thinkbut they have that
>>557938923EAT is extremely useful. I've been running it on Cyberstan, and just hitting everything with it. Robot base? EAT. heavy? EAT. Vox engine? Leveller then EAT if it manages to survive the Leveller. Cool down is so low that you can effectively dispose of them because in a minute you'll have another 2 and your team mates can use it too if needed.Quasar is nice, but the EAT is just so flexible... RR seems overkill and the backpack is a huge hindrance.
>>557945693Just download the Cheat Engine table, fuck swedes
>>557945229>still clinging to his headcanonSad to see, but such is life with retards around.

>>557945104Quasar is part of it for sure.Quasar users are so rapeable.Damn bubble butted twinks nggggh.
>>557940594>>557940953>>557942496Rover dog is also good. It caps enemies just like gun dog, but because you can see the laser you won't get your friendlies killed as much & it can act as an aimbot highlighting enemies you might not see, from a cyborg rushing you from around a corner or you thought was clear to a stalker bug. Just fire where it fires to blast shit
>>557945004>Matt Mercer is not a good DM. Popular, yes, but not good.say what you want about critical role but I would fucking love to play at a table he's running
RR is fun if you have friends, I've never liked running it solo, it's too cumbersome when you could just run a heavy pen weapon with supplemental eats
>>557945538>Can it kill fabricators if you throw in the vents both small and those big onesYou can kill the small ones just by throwing it anywhere near it. It does not need to be in a vent. Same for bug holes. Just needs to be near it, not in it.
>bugchaser if real
>>557945020You could just make a "babies first RTS" in the galactic war map. Each faction has hubs that produce armies, you can watch these armies march planet to planet over time. Maybe players could spend samples to boost the defenses of planets. It wouldn't be hard but AH never wanted it to be an actual dynamic war, just a backdrop for the story
>>557945858>some kind of contact explosiveI use the AMR to pop those shed doors instantly without needing to pick up more grenades
Bros... I thought we were railroaded to victory...
>>557945996>BRING ME THAT ASS
>>557945901Quasar isn't for fags. It's a based and redpilled gun. It's for red-blooded Americans who love big lasers and big explosions. Stop projecting your homoerotic fantasies on people who use such a based weapon.
>>557945757The consistent players are very smart and frequently upset Joel, you can tell he's mad when resistance values randomly spike and liberation progress randomly disappears. The new players and returntroons always just go to a random planet, get some reddit clips, then leave. That is the playerbase they want and actively try to cultivate
>>557946083Oh, this was a patent disaster from day one. The only surprise was that Joel tried that fucking hard to make it look like anything else.
>>557946083Every time a new MO starts Joel flips a coin.

Literal demigod supersoldiers!Super Earth is a fucking propaganda state, no shit they're gonna call them that. But in reality, they're treated as highly-expendable shock troopers that they can fully replace with a single advertising campaign, while SEAF are treated as non-expendable and valuable resources.
>>557946152I'm sure quasar users love big things that explode all over them.
>>557946312>>557945940Yeah, gundog friendlyfires much less
>>557945901Quasar is the manly man's weapon. Sophisticated without being academic, destructive without being dirty, never runs out of ammo, never quits. It does its job & it does its job well
>>557946376Fascinating headcanon as always.
>>557939306Thanks for the games, anons!that last little finale was fun, shame we couldn't extract but I actually really liked seeing how many enemies there are in transcendence

>>557946371Get fucking styled on.
>>557946557EMS strike is the worst dogshit in the game and has never workedEMS mortar is alright, it does stun very well and has value on missions where you want to keep the enemy in place like Defense or Eradicate
>>557946376>they're treated as highly-expendable shock troopersSure>while SEAF are treated as non-expendable and valuable resources.Absolutely not. SEAF get even less training than helldivers and are more expendable. Helldivers ARE the elite, it's just that Super Earth has a really really low bar and a major lack of concern for lives lost.
Reminder that this is who you are arguing against.
>>557946557EMS can't stun War Striders, Factory Striders or Vox Engines. It disables all other ground-based enemies the bots have, including cyborgs.

>>557947105nice thighs sissy
>>557947280It has the incel corps
>>557947171I think it will happen pretty soon. We're going to stall out all progress on transcendance as everyone switches to save SEAF's bacon and Joel will write that the lack of pressure has enabled the borgs to strike out at all of the cities even though they somehow lacked the manpower to defend them
>>557947280yes tottaly different anon AH trully cooked with this oneit's the same shit
Rapedivers have broken containment and the wholesome chungus "we're the baddies" crowd are not taking it well.
>>557947171>Liberate Solidaritet>"Congratulations, Helldivers! Because you were all so focused on liberating bumfuck nowhere instead of their capital, the bots were able to focus on rebuilding their forces! Thirty planetary defense campaigns is your reward!"
Admit that Joel beat you fair and square and that you're just pissy you didn't win.
One cannot win "fair and square" when one sets the rules of the game and can change them at ones whims without telling the other player.
Since a good 20% of the playerbase will never ever move to an MO because they're dedicated bug/bot divers, they should adjust the liberation participation formula accordingly.
TOTAL FRONTLINE COLLAPSE
>>557947628They claim they do, which is why we need at least 70% of the playerbase to every do anything kek
Let me put SEAFchan in my tank so I can keep her safe
>>557946753>>557946748>>557946376Helldivers are like Landskneckt. Well trained, well outfitted, but they are also right in the meatgrinder & not expected to live long. We arent like the Marines or yhe Army or any modern combat force. We are a stockpile of frozen dudes on a Super Destroyer filled with patriotic pride to fight a mercenary war for Super Earth. We fight for loot & whatever cause you personally attribute to your diver. We then funnel that loot into being given more weapons, armor, & vehicles to continue pillaging
>>557947479>make the capital mathematically impossible to liberate in time>scold players for not bashing their heads against it anywayClassic Joel
is it just me or does it seem like seaf is doing much better than helldivers on cyberstan right now

why should i save the 77th? what have the 77th ever done for me?
>>557948246>What keeps you going in the endgame?I play this game for fun. I was lucky enough to be born before mobile game engagement strategies and battlepasses were a thing, so my brain still works properly.
I find it kind of odd that Joel gave us the choice between Solidariat & whatever the other one was & it seemed to me that he was encouraging Solidariate but we went the other way, & now he's putting SEAFchan in danger her in the eleventh hour so we take it. I think he planned for us to take it, but we never did, & so he kept fiddling with shit behind the curtain to get us to fight on Solidariate for some reason
>>557948032Transcendence is mathematically impossible to liberate in time.That garbage RP victory at Solidaritet is at least possible
>>557948504Big buffs trust the plan
>>557948465The 77th didn't even exist until this morning. Save them to give them a chance to do something for you in the future.
>>557948465SEAF-Chan let me give her headpats once. I wouldnt expect a virgin like you to understand
>>557945693just buy it with real money 1k sc is like what 10 bucks?

>>557948482I don't have that much fun anymore. It's in the post you condescending faggot.
>>557948591>The 77th didn't even exist until this morningWrong, but not in a way that matters
>>557948032Because people do not care about the "war" or fake, rigged MO's that you are meant to lose anyways. They just play the game for fun. Having just cyborgs in a mission is more fun that having cyborgs, jet brigade, and incen corps.
>>557946939(you), as in the current defrosted Helldiver have authority over the vessel, where it fires and where you fight.Yeah the YouTube guy is retarded but he's almost getting it. It's not "every Helldiver", it's "every active defrosted Helldiver". As far as we know and have seen, anyway.As far as us being competent or not it simply varies. You'll have missions where you die eight times and feel like you don't get to do anything and you'll have missions where you rape everything and never die.
>>557948032Some want to save the SEAF, others are aware we can't win anyway.
>>557948591>save imaginary guys>they'll valiantly imaginary fight to the bitter end on cyberstan (media literacy check!!!!!!)don't give sweden a shred of good faith
>>557948981That SEAF stratagem has to come in at some point
>>557948504It doesnt fucking matter. All Megafactories are the same, theres no difference between any of them so Joel throwing a hissyfit doesnt make all that sense.
>>557949109Sorry chuddie, only hackers get to actually use new content
uhhh where is seaf on the battlefield?
I'm gonna need a lobby link
>>557949109SEAF guys are fucking busted. They remind me of those Marines from Halo 2 insta raping everything when you made them use the rocket launcher.So probably never just to spite us.

>>557949254>he thought Joels random blurbs would have gameplay impact
>liberate 86% of the capital (projected)>lose the MO and the invasion and retreat from the entire planetSweden doesnt make lick of sense. In what world is this """""realistic"""" behavior of a military force and a battlefield.
>>557946920THVTHNUKE
>>557948039>joel lowers reinforcements>having 100% of the entire population would still fail to liberate the capital before reinforcements are depletedRiiiiight
Are your expectations subverted yet?
The fact that the devs introduced the recon campaign mechanic and are NOT applying it to non-MO planets en-masse just shows that the Swedes COULD make bugdivers and others choosing to just ignore the story not hinder those that still buy in. But actively choose not to because they want you to fucking kys
reminder that transdivers are just as useless if not more so than bugdivers right now, they're pretending they're doing something important.
>>557949597I expected to be disappointed, so no.
>>557949497Its a business model built on endless war. If we actually stopped Cyberstan they wouldnt have anyone in that part of the galaxy to fight & use as justification to accelerate weapons development
>>557948039He literally had to cripple our progress by changing the third MO mid way
>>557949597Yes, I was actually starting to expect he'd throw it.
>>557949497you really expect swedcucks-, who haven't experienced war since they got obliterated and called it quits for good hundreds of years ago, -understand anything about warfare?
Where is the NAVYWhy are dedicated orbital support platform is slugging against another warshipThe bot didn't have Alcubierre warp drive, don't give me supply corridor bullshit
>>557949109I have a feeling that it won't be a "real" stratagem, but one of those limited ones like the Hellbomb stratagem.
>>557949545we liberate the capital when joel says so, so I play the MO whenever I say so.
>>557949753Because Humans are the baddies and thus have to be portrayed as retarded chud?You have an issue with that huh? You don't hate yourself??? You a nazi you fucking swine???
>>557949365I played the whole night, and I mean the whole night (7 PM to 5 AM) with pubbies. Responded to an SOS beacon on Transcendence D9, got greeted by 3 lvl 20-25 players. I thought they would fail, but they were bretty gud. We did like 3 operations. Shit was cash.For such a shit 'event' a lot of people is playing,
I feel like im not getting paid enough metals for Cyberstan...I mean, there's no script or SC to pillage either, so my gains are already lower than normal, but the MO is rigged to shit, & he's gonna fucking short change my MO Metals too the faggot. Two weeks & nothing to show
Are there any helldivers content creators approved by /hdg/?

>>557950016>>557950186maybe they need at least 41% before they start making progress
>>557950086Bro your leveller? Your portable hellbomb?
>>557950265I kind of want a human rebel faction, you have to take out enemy bases and convoys etc. They would have more going on than the bugs and bots since they are humans, but the swecucks wouldn't do a good job of it.
>>557950265>introduced a fourth factionThe squids are hardly even a real faction and it's been like 2 years. A fourth faction would literally be just 1 unit at this rate.
>>557948014They have consistent vehicular support, I'd assume that a formation of 50 Bastions would do a whole lot better than 1 airdropped into the middle of a Vox dogpile.

>>557950429lvl 49. That wouldn't have helped since jammer was ruining everything. Running Quasar and trying to take down the striders but sometimes you poke your head out and the machine guns instantly kill you, sometimes they don't
>>557950473Slower fire rate makes it feel more weighty.
>>557950265I want my dino riding ape men zealots, but that won't happen.I figured if we DID take Cyberstan we would find out that the bots had built up a big capital Death Star/factory world that would then drive around the map like a rogue DDS

>>557950349I dont get it.Lib Pen and Coyote seem like guns for people that cant aim. If you can aim theres no reason to not take something lime the carbine instead since it outperforms both of them due high fire rate and damage.
The simple answer to the supply pack problem is simple:Supply pack resupplies only give half ammo/stims/nadesSupply pack doesn't let you double dip at the Resupply strategem. You don't get resupplied AND an extra box in your backpack.There, I fixed the supply pack without completely ruining it.
>>557950890It's not about performance, it's about what feels right.

Didn't we stop Joel once because we didn't want to participate in his shitty MO last year? The Bots were about to get to Earth and the playerbase stopped caring because it just wasted a fun event. We can do the same shit this time.

>>557952643Who is this Joel? What does he do? Is the the lead narrative faggot or something?
>>557952769>Has SC spawns on hiveworld maps been nerftrooned?long ago
>>557943823>This is both an issue of narrative and ludonarrative dissonance.It's an issue of Swedes being faggy leftists who hate militarism and masculinity trying to reconcile the contradictions between their chosen ideology and their own masculine impulses.Helldivers is the shooter equivalent of dommy mommy safe horny, where emasculated "male allies" reconcile their innate urge to perv on girls by posting "step on my face mommy!".>I want to kill and destroy, and feel bad ass, but I also want to punish myself for feeling this way, therefore despite the heroic tone of my game, I'm actually the bad guy and a disposal incompetent buffoon with no training.
>>557952859He's the one who orders the enemy factions around and makes up narratives yes.
>>557952769SC spawns above d2 are fucked and even as low as d1 they don't appear on certain mission types. Just stick with the basics.
>>557951682Yes... and you call yourself a Pissdiver despite the fact that is obviously a Coyote.
If you guys really wanted to stick it to the Swedes you would start playing DRG instead supporting the superior Danish developers
>>557952857
>>557952297It's silly that Megacity/factory resistance is never stated in-game. Casuals never had any chance...
Why noone told me that you can play as a muslim in this game?>get portable hell bomb>run to objective >press 5>ALLAHU AHKBAR>(press X and run away)
>>557952643Complete opposite lmao. (also it was in 2024)People got tired of repeat bot MOs and railroading, so people stopped playing bots and did bugs instead. Plus they wanted to see what would happen and if it would force a Super Earth invasion.Joel didn't have the same controls at the time, so the bots were free to automatically get close to Super Earth, at which point I'm pretty sure he made a big bot MO, cranked up resistance on all bug planets, and cranked bot resistance on all bot planets to zero. Which is what resulted in the playerbase steamrolling bots out of the system.
>>557952685If someone pushes you into a wood chipper, do you blame the wood chipper?
>>557942454>but they kill so many enemies per life!Yes.As long as this is the case they are indisputably supernaturally effective soldiers that makes them the most powerful fighting force in human history.Has been the case since helldivers 1, all the satire attempting to paint them as incompetent clowns falls flat unless the player has the skill of an actual retard.
>>557953209>Destroy automaton forces mission>4 vox niggers clumping together clipping through each other>Press 5>Charge them>Get under their tracks>Die to trash shooting through and phasing through their tracks>Blow them all up anywaysSometimes this game is alright.
>>557953160uh based?
>>557952983It's funny too because the opening fully captures the tone of how most players seem to feel about it even if they didn't intend it that way. Just four guys having a great time while killing things. When you just buy into the fantasy it all fits, because it doesn't actually matter. Did my diver die? Sure, but here's another who's fully on board and gung ho. Sometimes the illusion breaks for our diver and we hear it in their voices but most of the time they feel like they are invincible even if their fellow divers die in horrible ways around them. If you take the same attitude you truly understand the feeling. You need to buy into it or else you open yourself up to the reality of the situation, and there's no fun in that.
>>557953141I did for a long time, until it turned into a mismanaged tranny hell hole. Not touching that dead in the water piece of shit again. Let it and the terrible developer just die already.
>>557953196its done by design, easier to string players along.

>>557953942its already been leaked, bots will attack SE to distract from Cyberstan, which will eventually lead to a joint bot/squid/bug invasion of SE (where the different enemy factions can fight each other as well as humans, depending on the particular mega city), all coinciding with the trench warfare warbond in mid March.

Joel controls all planet and city resistance levels. Joel can create and delete warp links connecting planets at will.In other words, by setting resistance levels everywhere that require a large majority percentage of the playerbase to Liberate, and by funneling players where he wants them with MOs and SOs, the herded playerbase can only Liberate planets Joel explicitly wants to be Liberated, when he wants them to be Liberated.>"I've got planets to burn, and Helldivers to kill."This is Joel's Wild Railroad Ride. And there's no way off.

If it were the norm then no helldiver would ever hold any rank higher than cadet or have access to any stratagem beyond the MMG and orbital strike, because they'd never get the opportunity to earn those rewards.Your super elite anonymous helldiver with super store armor, an experimental warp pack and quasar cannon that dies within two minutes on a level 10 operation, prior to that level 10 operation had a long career of God only knows how many level 1-9 operations that they obviously survived as indicated by their rank and the arsenal of stratagems they have access to.

Anyways this shit is practically ingrained to the point where you can always have your expectations set so fucking low when it comes to Swedish devs updating or adding anything. But still, not releasing the biome that was teased since release 5 years later? Fuck man. I might unironically beat up a Swede if I meet one.

The cognitive dissonance displayed by the redditors that play the game as well as arrowhead is unbelievable.Automatons. A soulless collective of killing machines set on destroying mankind, created by the Cyborgs, they lay siege to our planets and massacre civilians young and old without ever skipping a beat.Super Earth correctly seeks to kill them all. The media literate conclusion: Super Earth le bad. Arrowhead hamfists an entry about some retarded and wholly nonsensical civilian automaton fleet trying to escape cyberstan. Where did this come from? HOW are there possibly any civilian automatons? Are they factory workers? It's complete nonsense. All three factions are shown to be absolutely ruthless, they spare none and yet they have the gall to imply that super earth is on the wrong because UHH LE FASCISM or some other equally retarded reasonMore importantly there are no civilians on the enemy factions.Was there even a flavor text that stated or implied a ceasefire from the automatons when they sent their message of peace? it's all just so fucking haf assed and dogshit. Super Earth is supreme.

>>557961074That is true and the only point they'll ever get right. On the other hand seceding from your people carries obvious risks and you're probably better off trying to work something out. They were massacred but survived and chose to come back, even though they were now safe, SE was not coming after them.The Squid issue ended up being the right call because you simply can't ever trust aliens that have the ability to psychically enslave everyone.

>>557959165>be a shithead>reap the consequences>HOW COULD THIS HAPPEN TO ME
>>557962409Literally all they had to do was keep the last MO the same as it was before the chinks messed with it, and they STILL fucked that up.
>>557959446even us trans cuties? :3
>>557960370It's because of le media literacy conversation around Starship Troopers which this game is an analog for. When the movie first came out, it was pre-GWOT. Most people treated it at the time as fun popcorn movie and moved on. Decades later, Redlettermedia and other outlets have pointed out that the director Verhoeven was perhaps making a satire about Fascism because the uniforms were gray and other Fascist dialogue/imagery. Showing all the adults being dismembered and making it more ambiguous who started the war with the bugs etc. More in line with Ender's Game's pacifist ending than the actual book's pro-Military Cold-War era contents (which Verhoeven never read.) Rico was also changed from a Filipino in the books to a Blue-eyed white dude. Le high-IQ Redditors have viewed these video essays and wasted no time sticking their noses up at the chuds who "missed the point" on their first viewing likely when they were a 12 year old boy.Nevermind also, the enemy designs are all lifted from various movies: Terminator, Robocop, Predator, ID4, LOTR etc. And the "Super Democracy" is more a rebuke against American foreign policy in the Cold War and GWOT than anything in the 1930's. Reddot has always been a midwit haven, but after steadily purging everyone right of center for 10 years it has blown up into a retard supernova.
Why does Joel keep changing resistance values and conditions every 5 minutes? Doesn't he know it takes 2-3 days to do fucking anything in this game?
>>557962943No.
Man it would be cool if we saw some new unique DSS effects instead of these one time effects we see during events like this and the Super Earth invasion
>>557962984>perhaps making a satire about FascismHe explicitly said it was satire when the movie was made lol.

Is the DSS nuking the planet like when it first launched? Holy fuck yes. I honestly missed it.

>>557962196>you know what...fuck it. IF WE CAN'T HAVE THE PLANET, EVERYTHING BURNS!Credit where credit is due. This is kino.
>>557963227The problem with his "satire" is he forgot to add a message other than "military bad" "nazis bad"
>>557963576>Diver Inspection Dayanon...
>>557963608fml i meant >>557963428
>>557963227>>557963141>>557963302Same guy. He never said any of this btw.
>>557963419>MILADY SEAF-CHAN THE GAMER CRUSADERS ARE MARCHING TO YOUThis but unironically.
>>557962196whew lad
>>557963719And it still went over many people's heads, so much so that 30 years later many do not understand it. Even today you've got Americans cheering on foreign intervention into Iran
>>557962196Why not blow it up with the Star of Peace? What's the point of a planetbuster if we refuse to use it on a critical enemy planet like cyberstan?
Boom Boom Cyberstanhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6dKnG3WMDck
>>557963719No, the problem with his satire is that he made people too hype for the action and violence and underestimated that people are generally just too braindead to give a rat's ass about satire and messages, not to mention making the satire itself so over-the-top that it wraps around into being entertaining enough for people to overlook the faults. You don't really need a deep message, but you gotta convey it properly, and he made a hype action movie with shallow criticisms beneath dark comedy, it's not hard to see why people missed the point.

>>557963950That, in itself, was part of the satire.I don't get why people get so triggered over the obvious satire in Starship Troopers and Helldivers.
>>557963141The reason it goes over people's heads is probably that1. pretty much nobody has any understanding of even one of those contradictory descriptions of fascism beyond it just being a buzzword2. this included verhoevenSort of like if I made a "satire of socialism" but it was actually just a generic medieval fantasy movie and literally the entire extent of the relation to "socialism" was that people occasionally called each other comrade and wore pic related.
>>557963927uh chud le high command is le incompetent just like le Nazis!
>>557963883Yeah except it was Trotsky's disciples masterminding the wars to spread Democracy, not Franco's.
>>557963982FULL
>>557963927Premature load, we don't have enough bug juice to fire it again
>>557960317i downloaded a more recent version is my best guess sorry i really don't know much about CE really your guess is as good as mine
>>557963883His biggest mistake was not realizing americans actually like their government. Also the director was a child when he lived under nazi occupation so its likely he didnt grasp the nuace of fascism and just equates "facism is when coat/hat"Meanwhile the Federation in Starship Troopers is actually a seemingly nice place to live. Even military service is a volunteer service and even non-citizens can become successful (As evidenced by Rico's family being wealthy despite not being citizens) Helldivers 2, btw.>>557963950This too. Starship Troopers just feels like a dumb action movie to turn your brain off and gawk at the action.
>>557960317Is it game guard? You need to quickly check the SC spawn entry once you're in the ship to fire the gg script bypass
I FORGIVE AH FOR BURNING CYBERSTAN (High Command should have just bombarded the planet from the start) Fuck the rare minerals, we have volcanic planets for that; Burn everything; Bring the light of Liberty to them and turn them into ash!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WcGJmev2718
>>557963731what? everyone has D.I.D every super saturday at 18:00. Right?
>>557964230>His biggest mistake was not realizing americans actually like their governmentMeant to say "like their military" mb. Its a weird paradox with america.
>Use the halo shotgun with siege ready>A resupply doesn't refill all my ammoI was at completely empty and then at like 40something/53 after using a resupply packIs this shit intended? I've never used siege ready before this
>>557963227>they're the bad guys because i say soWhen paul verhoeven dies i hope everybody remembers him as the guy who made fascist propaganda.
>>557964316Yeah it's the gameguard. CE itself goes to not responding when I load the CT, or gameguard just crashes the game before I even have a chance to enable the SC spawn.
>0.08 resistance on lurzaWhat are they doing?
>>557964550We're bombing Automaton shits into the dirt that's what we're doing
>doing a cheeky sc farm>shit starts going downshit what happaned are we blowing cyberstan now what happaned
>>557963560>>557963608>>557963742lmao ok
>>557964634why only do that now? Our goal was to destroy mega factories this whole time, there was zero reason to not bomb everything to shit
>>557964379the enlisted are mostly chill guys trying to make ends meet or trying to get funds to learn a trade/go to college. The federal government and corps have their hands up each others ass so much they might as well be conjoined and treated as the same entity. Which is why most people fucking hate them, government jobs aren't civil service anymore, its just a career path for businessmen.Helldivers(2)
>>557964743swiggers realized they fucked up the event and are trying to save face
>>557964743Some super rare minerals or somethingWhy bombing the surface compromises minerals that should be underground I do not know

get the fuck out of the capital already you useless illiterate fucks

I like when they blow up the bugs :)

>>557965140There's nothing to discuss, just people who have eyes and ears and understand the satire, and then teenagers and NEETs who cry and scream about other people discussing stuff they don't understand
>>5579639823/4 slot just opened up.
This change to the DSS orbital bombardment is pretty lame in comparison to the original or just giving four divers a free 380 barrage.
>>557965172>Calls out /pol/ like they haven't been the only people discussing this guy for the past 10 years
I'm so media literate that I cheered for the human military in Avatar despite the movie being over two hours of wanking over how cool and beautiful and natural the blue cat alien niggers areHelldivers 2
>>557958716The desire for new kino military scifi is percolating just underneath public awareness. In time it will turn into outspoken demand and some brave dev or author will rise up to deliver us
>>557965996to be fair mechs and guns are way cooler than weird tree tentacle sex and over-sized smurfs
>>557965996Kek the exact behavior Starship Troopers makes fun of. It's hilarious really, even if chuds understand the joke it still drives them mad that its at their expense. Their only retort is to act increasingly retarded
HOLY SHIT TRANSCENDENCE IS KINOOOOOOOOOOO
HOLY SHIT TRANSCENDENCE IS DOGSHITTTTTTTTTT
>>557965996Well I did too. I'm a human supremacist.
GLASS CYBERSTAN
Starship Troopers does a fine job of satirizing American hoorah militarism. (Which hd2 also satirizes, and hd1 didn't really have anything to do with)But when you say it satirizes "fascism" that's where the argument falls apart from me. Doogie Howser wears an SS coat after he gains psychic powers (?), and there's a single offhand reference to a 'breeding license' (not elaborated upon). Other than that, there's nothing specific about fascism or Nazis specifically, other than things that "fascists" and Nazis have had in common with America ca. the 1980s until today. So unless you think modern-day America is literally fascist Nazis, then I don't think any such satire is present.It is a satire of war and sci-fi action films though, which you can observe in everyone's retarded actions and sociopathic reactions to the things going on around them. Nobody ever talks about this angle.
>>557966397>2026>chuds still don't understand this studylmao
is it the OG bombardment, where it just picks a player and puts an invisible 380 on them?
why is everyone moving to Solidaritet instead of Transcendance? just because the devs said "uuuh the 77th regiment of nobodies is gonna die if we don't do anything", that was enough to convince every RPing redditor that it was a lost cause?also, apparently everybody forgot that we were supposed to stop the automatons from making their own space station, but I guess it's somehow better to let the automatons threaten super earth on the long term just to save some retards who knew what they signed for
>these swiggers cant do ANYTHING right huh?
>>557965996The retarded fumble of the humans makes a bit more sense when you realize that they are the equivalent of a private army put together by Amazon. Lots of funding for gear, but everyone is retarded and untrained.
>>557966661as has been stated numerous times already, it was not mathematically possible to actually take transcendence even if 100% of the players were trying. the SEAF objective is actually doable because solidaritet has lower resistance.
>>557966661Transcendence was impossible to take in the time limit because of insane resistance.And a while back Joel has openly railroaded our defeat with a message that says we are retreating and salting the earth as we go
>TEAMMATE KEEPS TRYING TO USE VOX ROCKET SALVOS AS A WAY TO DESTROY OBJECTIVES AND OUTPOSTSi swear i want to strangle u as slow as humanly possible
>>557966953Maybe you should try communicating to him in a mature manner that you would like him to not do that.
>no lobbyi guess hdg is full of shitters today huh
>>557966953Bro it totally works bro just trust me bro watch.
>>557966953Sorry m8 I need some cool and funny clips for my tiktok channel
>>557966504>But when you say it satirizes "fascismIt's more that's what the director says.
>>557966042I'd argue there's PLENTY of military sci-fi but none of it has caught on because it's still completely unknown what really drives a franchise in that genre to become great like Halo did. What people actually want from a military sci-fi franchise is a mystery.>>557958716At least Halo stayed Halo, even if it was worse Halo and didn't end up like Marathon where the newest game is a goddamn extraction shooter skinwalker wearing Marathon's skin
>>557966661>that was enough to convince every RPing redditor that it was a lost cause?Yes, redditors are not know for their critical thinking skills.
>>557966953Host your own games, and then do the good old shoot and kick.
>>557966953I had one blow up a Stratagem jammer once, but it was not something I was trying to make happen.
>>557967085Good military sci-fi needs good aesthetics, I can't think of any cool looking military sci-fi that was released since Halo.
>>557966042Bro it's over. They can only make games good on accident like Helldivers 2 was.
>>557966859>>557966864wow, good to know that player engagement is really respected after 2 years, so I guess everything related to Cyberstan, every additional MO to add more reinforcements, was for nothing**just kidding, watch as the developers make cyborgs appear outside of cyberstan and justify it with "lol millions of helldivers died on cyberstan so the automatons used their corpses to make more cyborgs, and now they make their space station and they're gonna invade super earth"
>>557967085>I'd argue there's PLENTY of military sci-fiDo you know any good ones that have released since Halo? I'd love some recs please
>>557966335You don't understand human nature, and all you do is seethe endlessly that the people you're trying to make fun of root for the "bad guys" in your propaganda films because we see exactly what you're doing and we don't care.
I am bugdivin' and having fun :)
>>557966953I got a video on tik tok showing how to use bot laser turrets to destroy objectives like jammers and detection towers.It didn't mention vox lasers or rockets
I can't believe Arrowhead completely fumbled Cyberstan.
>>557967575Space Marine I and II. Fallout New Vegas (kinda) Stellaris is a map game. All I can think of.
>>557967636If you didn't care you wouldn't seethe so endlessly and unprompted about it kek.
>>557967712>I can't believe Arrowhead completely fumbled Cyberstan.how new are you?
>>557967712>I can't believe Arrowhead completely fumbledBro
>>557967057yes and when he says it, it mystifies me and I am left to draw one of several conclusions>he does in fact think that 90s USA is basically identical to WWII Germany, in which case, ok>he is misconceivedly projecting some values of militarism and bravado that aren't exclusive to fascism or the Nazis onto them and construing this as way more specific to the political mores of a specific time and place than it ever actually wasif starship troopers is mocking anything it's the idea of joining any army
>>557967712It would've been more surprising had they somehow NOT fumbled it.
>>557967712>I can't believe Arrowhead completely fumbled CyberstanDid you just start playing the game?
The weirdest part is that people keep coming back for major updates despite every single one of them being an unfunny shitshow and every update inbetween also being an unfunny shitshow
>>557967910Pretty sure he just said that because people were asking him why he didn't read the book he was paid to adapt
>>557967312BrigadorCortex commandGratuitous space battlesHawkenHighfleetFractured spaceMech engineerNebulousStarsector
>>557967636There's rooting for the bad guys, and then there's tying yourself in knots trying to UM AKSHUALLY that the half-Chinese police state with a 1.35 child per household policy that just Klendathu'd 400 million people on false pretenses aren't bad people because "they gave me a free shitty rifle" and "well, everyone else is even worse".
>You chuds can't win against the power and might of SOCIALISM>That's right chuds it was unwinnable from the startWhat did Arrowhead mean by this?
>>557962196Planned from the start or AH saving face because they botched the event too hard and people are calling them out?I guess a good allah-ackbaring and getting to save the seaf buddys is better than just keeling over in 2 days.
>Cyborg and Automaton forces have been observed shifting from LURZA to TRANSCENDENCE. Higher resistance on TRANSCENDENCE is anticipated.Why? Just to say "fuck you" even more?
I wanna force Joel to play DM for an actual tabletop game just so he gets kicked out within one session
Imagine having such a shit DM that they make something impossible for everyone else because someone somewhere cheated.
>>557968223It would be better if they would change the MO. Even with a lesser medal reward, they are acknowledging that it is unwinnable so they should put it up in big MO letters for the MOnkeys to read
>>557965996Problem with stories where they try to paint humans in a bad light is that the viewers are human, so naturally they will root for their side. You have to be a cuckold to root for the blue guys instead of your own people.
>>557968251It might have been possible for us to maybe squeak out a victory this way. Can't have that possibility on the table.
>>557968279>>557968289Hivemind
>>557963412Yeah, you can keep being mad at Arrowhead forever, because they will forever be fuck ups. Or you can just say fuck it and enjoy it for what it is.I've made my choice.
>>557968170It's crazy how these all look like bland shit mario games lmao>literal side scrollerI meant video games for adults, anon
>>557967813>unpromptedI'm responding to you complaining about how the chuds "just don't get it" for the billionth time, this whole conversation has existed and continues to exist because you people won't shut up about how no one has "media literacy" when you're the one missing the point because you refuse to understand that your propaganda is retarded and doesn't work on anyone except those who are already bought into your very specific political ideology.
>>557967910He's just a really old example of the modern liberal that genuinely thinks military=fascism responsibility=fascism corporal punishment=fascism attractive people=fascism(I'm not joking, he intentionally chose attractive actors for this reason)
>>557968251wait, wait, it gets better >Cyborg and Automaton forces have been observed shifting from CAMRAT FOR to TRANSCENDENCE. Higher resistance on TRANSCENDENCE is anticipated.He's moving resistance levels away from a megafactory we can't even fight on yet, just to say "fuck you" even harder.
>even though we now razed 80%+ of cyberstan and killed billions of cyborgs, on the only planet which they exist, they’ll come back even stronger in a week or 2
>>557968172What the fuck are you talking about? The director utterly failed at naming Starship Troopers as the satire he wanted and made the humans genuinely compelling.You seem media illiterate.
JOEL is making fascist helldivers throw their toys out of the pram AGAIN?! How does he do it?
>>557968441>attractive people=fascism(I'm not joking, he intentionally chose attractive actors for this reason)wellmostly

>>557968567Oh, you don't play the game. Carry on.
>>557968542try 68 hoursthey're going to counterattack IMMEDIATELY, it's why joel kept incendiary corps on the entire column out of cyberstan on the western side
>>557968421While his list leaves much to be desired, you are a shitskin.
>>557968542Bots are operating on a Grey Goo logic, it's the only way they can recover from this catastrophic damage.
>>557968648Nope, we're all moving to Girl's Frontline after this.
>>557968421>It's crazy how these all look like bland shit mario games lmaoAre you unwell?
>>557968172>"well, everyone else is even worse".If that were true to a setting then yeah you should still pick the lesser of two evils. In reality there are always bad governments from time to time and thats not going to stop happening anytime soon but if your solution is aliens who also either have bad governments or are just bugs genociding humans entirely then thats just not gonna fly with most people.
>>557968670yeah he's just a /pol/ tourist zogbot that comes here periodically to seethe
>>557967712>I can't believe Arrowhead completely fumbledArrowhead cruelly, callously, uncaringly, lazily destroys yet another young diver's optimistic innocence and naivete.I'd say "They can't keep getting away with it!", but they already have many times before, are doing so now, and will continue to do so in the future.
>>557968629he actively white washed the cast in a failed attempt to try and drive this point homewhen the book is more like the actual military where you've got corn fed white dudes from rural areas training with black guys from the middle of atlantaeven the melodramatic anime adaptation gets that right
I think Space King even when it's being obviously sarcastic does a better job of making its humans unsympathetic than Starship Troops did. and like, Space King isn't even really about that

(quite like helldivers 2. where your bridge staff has randomly generated identities ALL of which are racial mystery meat.) nobody ever asks where anybody is from or seems prejudiced against any human on any grounds whatsoever at any point in the movie that I can recall. that's supposed to remind me of the Nazis moreso than modern day America?

>>557968969he's Filipino. which is actually sort of concealed until late in the book as a kind of gotcha, because, whaddaya know, in Heinlein's vision of the future people don't have racial hangups and don't mention race. I'm pretty sure he can speak Tagalog and everything so he's definitely a little brown person.>>557968873dunno about the rest of the cast but I'm pretty sure anime Rico is just as Nordic Aryan as Casper Van Dien
Ugh oh, is it angry baby hour again?
>>557969558Filtered.
>>557968790No, I agree in full, with the added caveat that high command deserves the wall for fucking up that bad in a survival-of-the-species scenario. But having bigger priorities than the State does not absolve the State of its sins.
>>557969362>bald lightskinidk assimilation buck breaking or something
>>557969464This is a pirate fleet, spaceman! We use hard AAARRRRRRS here!
so there's just not gonna be a satisfying conclusion to this, huh?
>>557969306Maybe we'll just nuke the shit outta it and raze transcendence
>>557969242>>557969306They're all moving to Transcendence because they're going to transcend (activate the Automaton Deathstar and rise up against Super Chuds).
>>557969641What about SEAF? What about the "bombardment"? This is the stupidest shit ever. I am never participating in another MO ever again because this is a disgrace.
I racked up 150k kills on bugs but have less than 3k total between bots and squids so I'm looking to fully switch to bots. Any loadout recommendations with stuff that isn't commonly seen on bugs? Something with a marksman rifle, railgun or AMR could be a nice change of pace

TOTAL HELLDIVER HUMILIATION
>>557969764What did you expect? In a week from now, we'll be back to fighting on Gaellivare, except with Vox Engines clipping through trees. It'll be like the past month didn't even happen.
>>557969640>doesn't like HD2>posts in itBing bing wahoo sois are something else
>got a lot of new toys thanks to cheats>they're all gimmicky and hard to use or useless>stick with my classics (quasar, orb laser, 120mm, shield backpack)great game i'm really feeling the variety
>>557969968KILL JOEL
How do you make the Illuminati an interesting faction?
>>557969759This looks like a free browser game kek
>>557969412>The Council will decide your fate
>>557970158they already are one
>>557969869scythe
Im hoping the actual female body type drops soon. The game is starting to get boring with nothing thicc n curvy to look at.
>>557969869Strafe, 120mm, Supply Backpack, Railgun.Thermite, R-63 Diligence or Censor, Talon.Have fun raping everything.
>congrats on saving the trapped SEAF forces helldivers>they've quickly being trained to bolster our reserves as one final FINAL reinforcement budget >now heres your totally epic nailbiter to take transcendence
>>557970145Some choices are just nonsensical with the cooldowns.The expendable napalm rockets have like a 3 minutes cooldown but EATs are at 1, meanwhile napalm is infinitely less useful than EATs.Most toys aren't even fun to play with if you want to nerf yourself enough to bring them
>>557969412>I'll keep coming
>>557970204They're too easy opponents.
i wonder how many we lost when the path to cyberstan was clear but still we had to wait XX hours
>>557970230>Im hoping the actual femaleyeah I agree, it's a little weird how-->starting to get boring with nothing thicc n curvy to look at.never mind
>>557970148very organic and player-driven
>>557970194You might be thinking of StarFighter: Disputed Galaxy from Kongregate, which I also enjoyed a lot. Similar, top down, spaceship action games.
>31k still on Trancendancethese guys are the true retards.
>make the big bot major order end in a nothingburger way>all the people who returned to the game for it immediately leave bravo, sweden.
>>557943801Yes. And I will continue to blame them as long as Arrowhead continues to make it so they are an active problem to other fronts. They have the ability to solve this. They did as much during the Christmas event with recon campaigns not making vibes chasing faggots hog liberation, but they are choosing to make those random fuck off planets liberation campaigns on purpose.
Voxs are the only good thing about cyborgs
reminder that a throwing knife makes the same amount of sound as firing a normal primary
>>557944910
>>557969869Railgun and AMR are good. Really any anti-tank will work. As for Marksman, I've seen people running the Redacteds Censor with success. Aiming for the eyes is a neat trick. The Arc grenade, Sparkler nade, Gas nade are all good it seems. Shields have their fans on the Stan especially.>>557970158I think they're going to add teleporting mages from HD1 soon.
It’s time to Nerf the supply pack.
>>557970992>extraction gets overrun and the only squadmate who survives is the one running in a circle for two minutes with the supply pack constantly stimming himself Having functionally infinite heals is pretty hard to pass up yeah
>>557962196>Arming the remaining helldivers as suicide bombers.The bots were right all along. The helldivers' function is consumption.
Let me guess, the DSS orbital strikes are coded to randomly target the player?
>>557971376>lands perfectly on top of you despite no enemies being aroundI don't know. Maybe?
>>557971375>Pulls pin on grenade>Holds it until it explodes>"Wow, how could they do this to us?"
There's still a significant portion of players on trannyscendence when the other cities are near zero regen. I want illiterate brownoids to have their access to the internet revoke.
>>557971376>>557971450they strike anywhere within a circle around the player. I don't remember the exact radius. statistically they're more likely to land towards the edges of that circle, but you can still get hit occasionally
>>557971540Transcendence is the funniest city, why would i dive elsewhere?
Botranny when he needs to help with anything that's not on his front>galactic war is rigged, not my problem sweety ;)Botranny when his MO gets griefed by buggods and Joel>AIIIIIIIIIE HOW COULD YOU DO THIS I HATE YOUUUUUUUU I HATE THIS GAME I HATE SWEDENAhhhh, delicious botnigger tears.
>>557970732what's the likeliness of getting banned?
i enjoy every faction
>>557971756low
>>557970515>all the people who returned to the game for it immediately leaveGood, fuck tourists.
>>557971685Youre trying way too hard.
>>557971756near zero
>>557971685You're not trying hard enough.
>>557971540a lot of people just load up the game and play, I was doing missions on transcendence for the last 2 hours because I didnt know there was a change of plans because I never pressed the dispatch key. most of the dispatches for the last week have just been nothing burgers and flavor text too
>>557971756I've never heard of anyone getting banned. Even the chinks spamming cheats in public lobbies haven't shown a ban screenshot
post a lobby
Wait, did they bring back the old version of the DSS barrage? The WW1 artillery barrage, TK9000? lmao
>>557972076You WILL laugh at the heckin funny death!
>>557972042no new lobbies until new bread is baked
>>557970992Only if the stim pistol gets its deserved buffs.
>>557971376Yes. It's only purpose is to teamkill. It just killed my two squadmates one right after the other. You can even see the shell falling on my teammate in the webm. It's why it's been removed from the game for years.
>they were going to destroy the planet anywaySO WHAT THE FUCK WAS THE POINT OF THIS RETARDED "SAVE THE SEAF" SIDE QUEST?
What settings should I use for 4070 ti?
>>557972332If Joel can find a couple brain cells to rub together, this will be their origin story, and we can get memberberries when we see those unit names down the line.
>>557972192Oh, I'm laughing alright. At the people who would suffer eagle storm or that TK barrage.

All of that just to nuke the planet from orbit anyway what the fuck happened to this campaign man...
>>557972491FVLL.

>>557972839Should just let an AI be the GM
>>557972839We denied him the last stand on Stockholm.So he's getting it now on Transcendence with the Swedish-speaking cyborgs. Except this time we were totally repulsed because we're all such DUMB FUCKING CHUDS AAAAAAAAH FUCK MY FREAK INCEL LIFE!!!!
>The game is supposed to last for about a decade.If we're 2/10 of the way through Joel's wild ride and Arrowhead's content drop cycle for this game then I want off already.
>>557971756literally zero, anticheat is a literal fucking joke to be bypassed by a CT table is fucking embarassing. reports system doesnt work as well since the PSN linking fiasco, remember when that fat whale baskinator told people to link their PSN to steam so they could be able to use the report system? well they got a shit ton of backlash for it, and now report system doesnt work, and thanks to that they cant even distinguish who is a PC player or a consolenigger.
kinda tired of bots ngl
Just thinking about how hygge the devs are rn sitting in their homes in Sweden, sipping on a hot tea, wrapped in blanket, just waiting for this all to blow over.
JOEL’s bot counter offensive 8 planet sweep will break /hdg/
No new thread. this general dies tonight

>>557966549Oh, really? What is the point then? I was under the assumption that it shows that leftists are traitors to their own kind that would unironically sacrifice their families to save an immigrant rapist but maybe I lack the media literacy required to truly see :)
>>557974070Were playing helldivers 2 to shoot stuff, not jack off, you porn addicted coomerbrain.

>>557974087This whole body count timer thing was so dumbthe whole point of le satire is that this is a system of government that endlessly spits out bodies to push into meat grindersbut all of a sudden there's a hard limit on bodies we can dump into the grinder?
>>557974521>>557974574LMAO. Get a gf.
Stop giving (You)s to gachafags, that's all they want.>>557974521kek
>>557974438AAAAAIIIIEEEEE
>>557974439>>557974482I think he's actually just room-temperature IQ>>557974087The "depleted in" count isn't a hard timer, it's a projection based on "if the current deaths per minute continue, this is when we'll run dry". But the deaths per minute is shifting constantly, which in turn causes that number to fluctuate. Right now, the player count is going up, which means more missions and more deaths, at the same time that Joel is encouraging everyone to die.
>>557974512>The Second Punic Cyberstani War will feature Clanker Hannibal marching his Strider Elephants across the Space Alps to strike Super EarthK-Kino...
i will never understand gatchafagswhy not just play like actual porn games?
>>557974087It's already been 100% confirmed that the numbers are bullshit. Total helldiver deaths will increase by 18 million but the bar will go down 26 million
>>557974438You will never be a woman though
Why not play actual tabletop if you care about interactive storytelling?
>>557974916What does that have to do with anything?
>>557974864Sometimes you're meant to lose. It wouldn't be much of a war if we won every time.
>>557974087The better question is. Why do you still care?

>>557975280didn’t happen>>557975354how is that not gameplay?
>>557975051Nah, there's at least a handful of hentai games with good to serviceable gameplay as well. Alicesoft tends to be the guys that do that.
>>557975512disable bloom HOLY FUCK

The eruptor makes every other primary feel unusable in comparison.

We deserve to be forgotten
>>557975690>This game is completely soullessyou just had to stop there man
>>557973332Most players are tired of bots. Given the falling population count, you're not alone.
>>557974439As a child I always imagined being a helldiver. We all grew up watching the serials. How fun it seemed. How easy it looked.But the reality is much harder than I imagined back then. I feel all the more strongly how great our forebearers were. To protect this Federation I would tear the flesh from my body.It is time to give back.
>>557975512>Pub flag raisings are always absolutely crazy.the dont know how to control spawns around the flag. They all just crowd around the flag.
