Ever notice how one nearby explosion sends the tank to critical? Yeah thats 6/8th of your HP bar gone instantly because for some insane reason the tank can take small arms damage. Additionally each weak point had no damage cap, so the minimum damage is 1/8, the maximum damage is 8/8. A single high damage hit can blow the whole tank up instantly.

Super Earth has a 1.35 reproduction rate quota (debates underway for raising it to 1.4). It is NOT evenly distributed across citizen classes. A C-01 is an application for permission to risk a pregnancy, and the only perfect contraceptive is abstinence.

It's a necessary contrivance. Unlike the first game, the new playerbase percentage liberation system makes simultaneous multi-front defense and offense impossible. If liberating or defending a single planet requires a huge majority of the playerbase, then any extra full-strength attacks would be impossible to defend against.
All other factions go on vacation when they aren't the focus of a Major Order. If they didn't then Super Earth would have lost long ago.

been thinking about this

the devs said that any crossover skin is technically NOT a crossover skin (i.e its not ODSTs in HD2, it's ODST themed armour in HD2, canonical to helldivers lore)

thus, I don't think theres going to be any form of warhammer 40k skin (despite the image showing the elysian drop troops) because games workshop would DEFINITELY be assholes about it

it's a skin about a not-very-popular regiment that they stopped selling the models for ages ago, they'd want a "crossover" to promote the models they sell, and even then, its NOT a 40k skin as described why above

anyone have any extra information to elaborate?

Cyberstan became unable to take liberation. All players still playing leftover missions on cyberstan (around 37%) can't take liberation anymore. Thus, the impact of the remaining players will be much higher as they can take liberation. This is just a quirk and will even out when people leave cyberstan for other planets.

I probably hadn't booted up Helldivers for like 3 months before this. I can't believe that after teasing a warbond that looked so sick I paid money for it and a campaign that got me to come back and play again, I only played HD2 for like 2 days and now I'm so sick of the game I'm happy to not touch it again until summer.

You can, you just need aim.
Always keep moving.
Ironically you should prioritize the smallest bugs because they're the ones that are as fast as or faster than you. If it's just a horde of mid-large bugs they can easily be walked around.
Ignore the fact that chargers appear to have a lot of armour on their head, it's actually their weakspot.
Medium Pen primary with AT support weapon allows easy kills on the entire bug roster and when paired with the Grenade Pistol you can easily solo anything bugs can send your way.
Shotguns are a goof crutch if you suck at training the bugs as they have ridiculous stagger on the medium bugs and one-shot the small ones.
Don't trust squadmates to watch your back, always have your head on a swivel as the small bugs will always attempt to flank and encircle.

>>558083817

I'd like to personally thank any of the newbs who started out the last two weeks here. If you've been spending your early hours doing Cyberstan I think you'll grow up to make for great Helldivers. Granted there was a lot of farting about and nonsense but towards the end of the operation it was actually kinda beautiful seeing you bastards kick that brain into gear and dealing with Vox engines and striders appropriately. Your sacrifices won't be forgotten.

Reminder: We didn't lose this MO, Joel did.

Setting up a reinforcement reserve to begin with was a dumb fucking idea. If the operation really was this important, we would be trying to complete it at all costs, no reinforcement or time limit. Making deaths outside of the MO count against us was also grade A bullshit, why punish us for people not participating in the MO, and then stick by your dumb fucking policy of saying that we can't complain about people sabotaging the MO by not participating in it. Hell, making deaths count against us at all is fully against the spirit of this whole fucking game, and is another example of their double standard of "don't blame other players for not playing the MO and/or for sabotaging the MO" vs. "we are literally punishing you for other players dying outside of the MO and being bad and dying too much during the MO". All this plus the death rate inevitably increasing the more players are online and the more returners are participating, the MO was literally also punishing people for participating.

And at the end of it all, look what fucking happened, "we" lost the MO yet we still have Helldivers deploying on Merga and Aurora Bay at this very moment. We're definitely not short on resources in any way, shape or form.

And speaking of Aurora Bay, we would have easily liberated it and destroyed the Jet Brigade had Joel not forced bullshit defenses of Lesath and Chort Bay just to slow us down. The stupid "vote to leave the DSS behind to raze the planet" mechanic wasn't even well-explained to begin with, and the attacks were way too fucking strong given that the bots were supposed to have pulled back all of their forces to defend against our push. Another example of Joel punishing us for his bad GMing since this type of mechanic has never happened before and thus it would make zero fucking sense to vote to leave the DSS behind.

Joel needs to be fucking fired.

To the anon that told me that they wouldn't let Cyberstan be destroyed because it'd remove content, fuck you because they removed it anyway because we can't land on the planet anymore.

My final day on Cyberstan was fun. I was RPing in pub lobbies, rallying my squad and acting like a patriotic moron. It was honestly some of the best time I've had in this game in a long time and I encourage you to do the same sometime in an encouraging and positive way. The swedes tried to make this as painful as they could, but the indomitable human spirit endured. My squads had fun, I had fun, and we made those metal bastards fight till the last man.

I got my wish. I died on Cyberstan. For Super Earth, always and eternally.

Instead of fucking off we should have retreated to a moon or something to throw it at the planet.
It'd be a desperate attempt by both sides to wrestle control of the moon. We set up planetary engines and knock it out of orbit.
then BAM

I really expected the bot deathstar to show up and stop it, or that cyberstan had already been turned into a mobile deathstar.

Nope, guess we're just uhhh...leaving.
Don't mind the fact that we razed a whole planet connected to Cyberstan just a couple weeks ago. Can't do that again, for some reason.

Wait are people actually upset we lost?

Who cares???

It's a fun game.

Why does Melee have to suck? I enjoy it but I know my teammates wish I just bought a RR or AC. I try my best and bring some EATs but it just feels so underwhelming, things I have a fun challenging time doing with melee can be done without a thought with a "proper" loadout.

Melee is mostly aura farming, but there are times where it's useful

The chainsaw just sucks, but the hammer is very good if you can learn to bait out melee hulk attacks so you can go for the swing

The sword/hatchet have really good DPS and are good options against voteless swarms and even bugs if you can keep your positioning clean

The machete will staggerlock cyborgs and let you melee them to death every time, guaranteed

Stun lance isn't bad either

Try taking a ballistic shield if you're getting wrecked too easily, but also just keep in mind that they're secondaries and are balanced like secondaries.

If you want some good melee damage without giving up anything, take the amendment with rock steady/peak physique. The bayonet on that thing is no joke.

>>558085245
SuperEarth lost on battlefield but we won with fear

Regardless of what way this war goes. Our rape of Cyberstank will be remembered in the bastard children we left behind all over the planet like Khenghis Khan did on earth

So do I just pick whatever direction I want to go in? Is now not a great time to try to get into the game? I tried using quickplay but that does not seem like a good idea starting out at the moment.

The hammer is easily one of the best weapons right now. I expect heavy nerfs soon.

>>558085217
think of it this way; in terms of the actual galactic war mechanics, taking and holding Aurora Bay and Merga IV, and holding Merak, will cut off Cyberstan and two other deep bot planets should something happen. Absent an MO, playing to the galactic war mechanics is the closest thing you can do.

>>558085615
This game may be "live service" but there's no fomo. Go where you like, fight what you want with whatever you want. But I guess you should get in the habit of doing whatever the Major Order is, currently there isn't one because the "current" one just ended.

>>558085615
Check your map and go to red areas to complete side objectives, while eventually doing the orange primary objectives.

The difficulties up to D7 are basically the tutorial, you don't start seeing every enemy in the game until D8. Feel free to pick your own missions and throw down an SOS beacon for pubs to quickplay onto you if you don't want to join others' missions.

>>558085615
You have quite the sense of timing. Shit's settling into a recovery period after the week-long shitshow wrapped up a couple hours ago. For now, yeah, grab a front and start getting a feel for whichever faction sounds the most fun.

>>558085731
>I expect heavy nerfs soon.
I wouldn't, it suffers a lot from opportunity cost and overall higher risk to get the same reward as other support weapons.
If hulks exploding didn't ragdoll you guaranteed, even in rock steady armor, then it'd be meta.

But they do and it does, so it's really for showing off while using gas builds (which is really fun)

No, you see, the whole entire point of warring for Cyberstan was to pump up the war economy and military-industrial complex stock prices. When you think of it this way, the idea of warring Cyberstan is a win-win whether or not the helldivers succeed or fail.

Big tip so you save extra time AND money.
1. Grab the up-to-date Super Credit(SC) finder, it'll save you the time trying to find SC across the map's points of interest
2. Buy the Control Group Warbond, it contains the Warp Pack which lets you bypass the bunker doors which requires 2 players to open. Just dive into the door and teleport past the door before landing

Well that event was kind of a bummer. Good start, but swedish meddling broke the illusion of choice. Something a good GM should never do.
ANYWAY
Heres what I TRULY and HONESTLY think will happen for the Cultist update that may or may never come out.
>four new brand SPANKIN new enemies
>Outcast, Magus, Illusionist, Zealot
>TWO reskins
>Sentinal (Harvester), and Ghouls (Voteless)...maybie the Watcher?
>and one upgraded version of the Overseer
>Xenobite
The Outcasts, Magus, and Xenobites all possess the ability to Teleport in the form of a short range dash; Which will allow the Xenobite and Outcast to close the distance and molest your leandivers, and allow the Magus to run away so they can harass you with blue fire balls. Oh by the way, the Magus can also cause the ground beneath you to erupt in an explosion: rendering the Bastion, Emplacements and sentries...completely worthless.

Most dreadfully of all, the Illusionist -true to its name- can create fake copies of other enemies, the fairness of which entirely dependent of sweden making sure the FAKE. COPIES. cannot damage you. It will also cause Ohdoughs computer to kill itself, again. Allegedly, the Illusionist can also mind control Helldivers like in HD1. No idea how it will work tho
>ETA
Next major update at the Latest, maybie, hopefully. It could be soon after AHs secind invasion of Super Earth. I mean there is that GIANT BLUE BEAM on the key art that hasn't been adressed yet.
