>Previous>>563616749>WHAT IS HELLDIVERS 2?HELLDIVERS 2 is a 2024 crossplay, co-op, squad-based, PvE 3rd person shooter for PC, PS5 and XBox Series X/S where players fight against hordes of alien insects, robots and squids to Spread Democracy™. Players wage war on contested planets, each with a different biome, completing as many objectives as possible in a procedurally generated level while constrained by a time limit. With enough successful missions, a planet can be defended or liberated, and the player base must combine their efforts as much as possible to Liberate™ the galaxy.https://store.steampowered.com/app/553850/HELLDIVERS_2/https://www.playstation.com/en-us/games/helldivers-2/https://www.xbox.com/en-us/games/store/helldivers-2/9mx9wn9dfpgt>WHAT ABOUT THE FIRST HELLDIVERS GAME?Released in 2015 for PC, PS3/4 and PS Vita, the original HELLDIVERS is a shared screen top-down shooter in the same setting.

Stalkers owe me sex
Any questions?
>>563704954it's okay
There is no way the Truth Enforcers will allow that OP image to stay up. Unless it was a gacha whore, of course.
>>563705229She approved it
>>563704639rip legodiver

>>563705031why do your videos never play for me?
AHHHHHHHHH!!!!!
>>563706224you knew that sentry was about to pull some malicious coding bs
>>563706224>sentry still got a shot offToo close.
>>563706182The video or sound?
>>563706224The gatling sentry fears the helldiver, that's why they strike first.
>>563706224That fucking thing was 100% about to execute its reddit clip generator code.
>>563706224>>563706425>>563706548Do you think that this game's community will ever learn that this isn't team fortress 2 and that it isn't a particularly bright idea to place sentries within 1 meter of teammates?
>>563706224that mech getting sawed into pieces mid-air by the strafing run at the start was awesome
>>563706634the webm.every single video on 4chan plays for me without a problem but yours (the ones that start with [sound=https%3A cryptic bullshit name) NEVER EVER
>>563706735there are too many instances where the sentry just straight up ignores massive clusters of enemies just to prioritize aiming at the enemy where a helldiver just so happens to stand between the enemy and the sentry.This way we can't really prove there is malicious coding straight away (hurrr sentry is aiming at the enemy durr) but I swear from my own multiple hundred hour experience if I see an enemy and I stand between the sentry and the enemy the sentry ALWAYS prioritizes that enemy it is so predictable.
>>563706779That was pretty neat. I didn't notice at the time with my teammates doing the usual>pose for pictures with the watcher>summon many harvesters>do not shoot the harvestersroutine. The HMG emplacement is the only thing keeping me sane. I don't know how pubbies manage to get buck broken by harvesters so hard when it's arguably the weakest of all of the heavies.
>>563706983>pose for pictures with the watchermild kek
>>563706983>how pubbies manage to get buck broken by harvestersI know, they all go like>"oh it is the illuminate, ez heavies, I will just pick whatever is fun and hope the other guys brings some AT for harvesters"And then all pubbies in the team think the exact same.yay.
>>563706954I've gotten a lot of value out of sentries, but placement is extremely important. The average pubbie seems to want to place their sentries smack dab in the middle of everything where they have clear lines of fire to shoot EVERYWHERE which means that they can potentially flag EVERYONE. I feel like sentries are more effective, and definitely safer, when they're deployed somewhere where they have more constrained lines of fire and they engage a clear sector. For example, if we're raising the flag I don't want to put the sentry on the damn flag where it can shoot everywhere. I want to toss the sentry to that intersection 40m to our south. It doesn't need to assist with shooting enemies to our north. The squad now no longer needs to devote as much concentration to south since the sentry is covering that, so they're free to focus their attention elsewhere. Ideally the sentry location physically can't even get LOS on the helldivers' positions. In a pinch at least toss them to the flanks on the left or right of the battle so that helldivers are less likely to get caught in the crossfire.
Realistically how many scavengers could you beat up? No gunsIm such a pussy and dont want to get my legs sliced upCould take down maybe 3 if I have boots onWould just be me running away hoping to mario stomp themThese things are as big as wild hogs right?
>>563706830That's weird. The [sound=] link is just something for users with the sound for other boards plugin to sync audio that I uploaded to litterbox with the video. As far as I know, if you don't have the plugin them your browser shouldn't bother reading the link.
>>563707415You don't even need AT to kill harvesters. A coyote can potentially kill an unshielded one with one magazine.>but they're always shielded when I'm looking at them.I feel like I'm the only one who is making a concerted effort to destroy their shield generators when given a chance. The coyote has enough rounds in a mag to pop the shield and destroy the generator. It can do that from very far away, and then you can go for the kill once it is close enough to reliably hit the hip.
>>563706830What browser are you using.
>>563707775Are the scavengers coming at me as a group or one at a time?
>>563707909I usually just pop the shield with my primary and then blow the leg off with a commando rocket to kill them. No reason to fiddle with the generators.
>>563707983Id say 2 at a time
>>563707775Probably one, maybie 2. The biggest thing is that their claws might get into you, or their massive mouth might clamp around your leg and you'd bleed out
>>563707775No weapons with boots? I think just the one, really. And that's with a solidly aimed kick to it's head that's a one and done deal. If I miss them I'm getting bit by the mandibles or sliced with it's front legs.
>>563707996If you have a commando, agreed. Generally I'm running coyote and de-escalator vs mecha squids. I can comfortably kill harvesters, but not at long ranges. I'll destroy the shield generators so that they are guaranteed to be vulnerable once they get within de-escalator range.
>>563707775if you had a baseball bat or something it'd be several, easy. especially if you have access to even basic armor like football pads or shin guardsunarmed and in regular clothing, I wouldn't bet on being able to fight off more than one
How the fuck do I deal with Harvesters in an efficient manner?
>>563707775>These things are as big as wild hogs right?If you're going by that size comparison pic of the scav and helldiver models in blender from last thread, you have to keep in mind that Helldivers are big compared to the average person (or maybe SEAF are really small). Actually, how do scavengers stack up size-wise to SEAF soldiers?
>>563708273mmg/maxigun to a leg joint
>>563708056>>563707983>>563707775I'm going to assume that a scavenger is at least as strong as a snapping turtle. They're probably too tough for me to kill with my bare hands and feet. Maybe if I had a heavy object to bludgeon them with, such as the fire extinguishers that the state mandates be close at hand within every public building.If it was just one then I might be able to carefully pick the fucker up, but that might not be practical if multiple are coming at me at once.
>>563708062>>563708075Feels like 1 slice or bite and its over for most guys no matter how buff you areDoubt any martial arts besides kicking would help either>>563708247Nah nothingImagine youre at an open grassy field with maybe some rocks to get on>>563708292We need science for thisI forget divers are NBA level freaks>>563708548Best bet would to flip them on their belly and curb stomp emBut if 1 leg is slice its kinda overSnapping turtles and bite your hand off no problem tooStill I think I could get 3 downBut the last would be a total slug fest with both of us running on fumesFirst guy is an instant kick kill
Many people overestimate their ability to fight off wild animals. I'd like to remind everyone that a 90 pound dog is able to kill adult human beings and they do so regularly. Wild boars are even more dangerous, but they're a little bigger than scavengers, I think.
>>563708273Generally you shoot them here. Pick one hip and focus fire it. The tips of their toes are weak too, but those are only really worth shooting at if you're also baking their toes with pyrotech grenades. Medium pen weapons can score a kill in both the hip or the toes. I know diversdex is outdated, but I don't feel like doing math right now. According to diversdex a coyote AR can kill a harvester to that hip via 39 shots from its 45 round magazine. A variety of support weapons, and even primaries/sidearms can effectively damage that hip.If you have a suspicion that you might not be able to quickly score lethal damage vs a hip, then take the time to target either of the horns to disable the shield generator.
>>563706954You can prove malicious coding easily>turrets/rovers can't see through solid objects and enemies, nor shoot through solid objects, enemies, and corpses>rovers/turrets can see through helldivers entirely to shoot enemies through them
Why is there price tag in the armory if you tried to compare a weapon?
>>563709146Leftover from the game's old monetization. I don't have the old image but basically a typical battlepass was planned with cosmetics and armor/weapon camos. New weapons would cost super credits to buy alongside skins as well. I think the image had like the fucking lib concussive or something at 615 super credits. basically AH were fucking Jews
>Visible giant rocket pod on Super Destroyer>No orbital rocket strats
>>563709582shredder soon trust
>>563709079I was perched up on higher ground than a AC sentry once, no enemies in my direction on the map especially not at that angle towards the sky, and there was a breach off to the left right in front of the sentry, it shot some volleys at the breach a few times then suddenly turned and fired one shot up at me, killing me, then turned back to keep shooting at the enemies. There was no conceivable reason for it to do that other than malicious coding, I've started recording so that next time I'll be able to show it but I'm 100% convinced now.
>>563709582Orbital rocked pod would be nice to be able to compare it to eagle pods and see if its any better.
>>563708273>>563708827unironically use recoiless rifle to onehit harvesters on this weakspot, assuming you are not an aimlet.
>>563709658As a heavy turret user (I play on a potato) I've seen exactly this several times
>>563709658yep, once got killed my a MG sentry which tried to shoot at a bug breach that was not in the sight of it at all as it was obstructed by higher ground.once it killed me it kept shooting the ground in the general direction of the breach.fuck swiggers.
Lobby doko
Got servants of freedom, should I get the drone grenades or portable hellbomb first? 1/3 buddy bunkers don’t let me use my warp pack through them which sucks and I always use the warp pack ever since I unlocked it, portable hellbomb seems useful for bot missions just in case they got a jammer
>>563710140is that furry male or femaleprotable hellbomb is infinitely more useful compared to gimmicky drone grenades which are only good for one-hitting bot gunships.
>>563710140you need to dive prone at the middle of the bunker doors to teleport through sometimes
>>563708273Spray and pray AA exosuit rounds, thermite, getting lucky using solo silo, leveler is too high risk>>563710270FemaleI mean I usually fumble grenade throws or forget to use them, this week’s MO is squids so I won’t be playing bots>>563710540Noted, AH should never patch bubker warping since that pack is the main reason I any many other players bought itEverything is meh
>>563710650drone grenades are pretty good against flying overseers, just make sure to throw them higher up so the closest enemy to it is an overseer so it doesnt fly towards a single voteless.Also there is so gimmick where the drone grenade prioritizes a target that you have pinged, so ping flying overseer, throw grenade towards it BUT quite higher than you would normally throw a grenade and you should be good.
Is Mindless Masses still a snoozefest, or have they finally fixed D10 so that we actually see the "Masses" part of it?

>>563711191Snoozefest in multiplayer. Currently the only way to truly experience the true Mindless Masses endless voteless spawning experience is to play solo.
I hate youtuber metaslavery. Shitty randoms take most meta layouts and then just suck ass. No experimental infusion isn't meta pick when you suck ass. Take localising confusion. Those 30 seconds means day and night when you suck and can't kill anything. Take RR and shoot big boys. At least you are helping. Don't use ultimatum. You just team kill everyone for 3 times. How about you don't take anything and learn to keep moving and how to manage your resources.
>>563712690Squid spawning has always been so strange. Meatboys in d1. Shitload of enemies on low difficulty. Now only way to have proper mayhem is to not to play on high difficulty
>>563711191>>563712690Oh yeah and if you have the mod menu then add "Enemy Force Increase" to the planet's modifiers to increase enemy patrol spawn rates, which in the case of Mindless Masses on D4 = more voteless.
>>563706425so why didn't it shoot AT him if it was coded to target him?
>>563707775the true answer for everyone on this board is 0
>>563712825But the funny Sergeant Diver tuber man said its meta!!!!!!He made a tierlist!!!!!!
>AH only spams war striders/vox engines to spite players>even obtruder spawns are crazier>when it comes to the actual zombie horde unit, they barely spawn themWhy are they so retarded?
>>563711493crashed again GGs for today.
>>563713415lower the difficulty unironically, it causes more voteless to spawn lol

>>563714568that furfag probably started before you lol
I wanted to write that these cocksuckers made the hordes really hordes, but no, the game will spawn 100 zombies next to you and after that all the fun ends for the next 5 minutes.
This is a joke, right?https://x.com/helldivers2
>>563713415Yes. After everything we have seen from AH. Only explanation left is they are retarted.
What happened to those mid sizes votless. Between fleshmob and votless. They got leaked last year before super earth. They looked like feature ready. Shouldn't they be included to mindless mass
>>563714904would buy
Did they redesign these to fleshmobs? It would make sense in mindless mass to have midsize zombie enemy too. You could remove overseers if you had these.
>>563714904>Bandai hamdokekwould buy and hotgluepost the horse one btw
>>563715259Hamdo made me laugh so hard for some reason
>>563715248they do be lookin a lot more hd1 inspired, doesn't fit their zombie faction angle tho
>>563715248Mindless masses should've just tapped into body horror more. Give use a giant writhing snake of merged human bodies that slithers towards you. Make it a hostile tidal wave of flesh that will easily destroy any vehicle or destructible obstacle it comes into contact with.
>>563713189I don't know where people get the idea from that they can take these things on.Yeah they die easily when you're a literal superhuman genetically engineered to be the peak of your race and hopped up on performance enhancing drugs. They don't die easily when you're a middling sedentary slopman.I imagine scavengers are like a souped up boar. I wouldn't wanna tangle with that.Best chance is to get behind it and try and lift it so you can doomp eet off a cliff or something.

>>563716121Do the mechs bug through buildings like fleshmobs do?
>let's try descalator I haven't ever used this thing>usually gets a few kills per shot, heavies take a full mag or two>sometimes, for no apparent reason, it kills like 20 things in one shot and a heavy from 100 to 0 in the next two???
>>563714647>I-I- I mean "he" has been here since last summer, he's a total oldfag!Now do the "it's Current Year! You're not allowed to fursecute us anymore bigot!" one, that's my favorite. Then kill yourself
>>563716195They sometimes do, but the problem is it's hard to target that floating spawner among the endless seas of other floating shit it just constantly calling reinforcement behind a block
>>563716195Not as badly as fleshmobs, they're pretty tame actually. The real issue is the leviathans killing all your vehicles and the flying overseers and obtruders stacking up over time while you deal with the normal overseers and mechs rushing at you.
>>563715614>>563715614Considering a weapon-butt or two from a helldiver kills it fairly often, I believe the hard exoskeleton of a scavenger is similar to a human skull. Assuming terminid physiology is close enough to insects, except scaled-up dramatically, it should be fairly susceptible to something as simple as a hard soccer-kick to it's side, although again assuming their bug-like properties they should be able to take quite a bit of punishment unless you crush the head.As for claws and their damage, it's actually plausible since many bugs are capable of large amounts of explosive energy, although it might be less pronounced for a scavenger due to the increased mass of their bodies. Funnily enough, the speed they move at is very slow for their size, as many animals around their size IRL can easily double their top movement speed. What does this mean? It means that they're possibly equal or even less of a threat compared to a wild boar - an animal that's well documented and known for their resilience. Meanwhile, while a scavenger may pose a threat because of it's blade-like appendages, a straight kick could be more than enough to at least stun it, maybe enough to even crack the skullplate, although they still can show surprising amounts of speed and energy exertion into swiping with their claws, so maybe they're more dangerous than boars which typically rely on tackling and goring with their horns.
>>563716004(You) could be next!
super earth owes me sex with experimental humanoid bugs
>>563716570I don't know where you get the idea from that these things aren't sturdy.A helldiver hits with enough force to stagger a literal machine that weighs upwards of 300kg. Trying to use a helldiver's prowess as a measuring stick for what some average bean can do is silly.A scavenger also routinely breaks the limbs of aforementioned superhumans and that's through armor.Scavengers are not push-overs when facing ordinary humans.

I read someone say that you can use the Reinforce stratagem ball to determine if a surface will bounce your stratagem ball or not. I'll try it out tomorrow.The idea is since you can call for reinforcements even if no one is dead, you can use the blue ball to test suspicious surfaces. If the reinforcement ball disappears instantly, the surface is valid. If it bounces, invalid.

I'm new on this thread,what is lobby doko?
>>563729036Literally not possible even when not hosting.
>>563729243basically a request asking someone to host a /hdg/ lobbyWhy those people never host a lobby themselves is a real fucking mistery.
>>563729338thank you
I have never understood why being a host it's such a different experience to being a non host,is really stingray engine code so fucked up?
>>563706224absolutely justified, always put sentries up high or down in a pit, never on the same level as teammates, this has cut my sentry uff by over 90%
>>563729338>Why those people never host a lobby themselves is a real fucking mystery.its because I've got pub aids

>>563729338Because im a smelly xboxdiver and dont want to fuck up your games
>>563730221no, but you can throw it at your feet and hover up with hover pack and remain unhurt

>>563731810How do I hone my skills of making the true aim circle follow my mouse aim faster?
>>563731810>bro just drag your mouse across the table to move it!it's shit game design
>>563722323
>>563732108there is this swigger code where your weapon's so-called circle moves faster the further it is away from your actual aiming spot.So if you want the circle to reach the destination faster, over-aim much further and then then quickly snap back to the intended aiming spote.g. you want to aim at the bug that is 90 degrees to your left. instead moving your mouse 90 degrees, you move it 180 degrees to your left.the circle is now forced to move really fast to your current aiming position. when it is halfway there you quickly turn RIGHT 90 degrees and basically stop in in it's tracks right somewhere around the bug.This saves you like 1-1.5 seconds but we know that 1 second can be really important when our helldivers are made out of playdough.

Welp, no Warbond announcement today.Better luck next week, niggers.
>>563705229>>563704459
>>563706224I remember doing something like this when a badly placed sentry was mowing down evacuation targets only to get team killed by the retarded host with a shovel then kicked
>>563732415You can't be serious, it works like THAT? Why the fuck wouldn't you just code a flat tracking speed that increases with ergo?!
>>563732092Not even 80 meters is safe at times.t. killed by a 380 barrage at 93 meters while standing on a hill
>>563733327Because that makes even less sense than the current system
>squigger MO>no new warbond trailerdead game dead general
>>563732108When you dive to the ground, your aim circle quickly snaps to your mouse position so that you can do sweet action movie shots.
>>563730221Clusterbombs wipe your teammates faster than any other strategems
>warp ships incoming>be me, literally driving a huge ass tank around>pubniggers decided the best course of action is to run around like headless chickens, spamming 500kg and grenades at a massive horde of biomechs and harvesters instead of getting in the tank and mow them downHoly shit bro....
>>563733996>Getting in the jank tank and dying to it exploding because it went over a rock funny and got jettisoned into spaceNope.
>>563734096It doesn't do that any more thoughbeit
Anons, the portable hellbomb is growing on me.It’s unexpectedly fun carrying this thing around - sometimes it really helps.But I’ve got another question: are there any plans for content like longer expeditions or something similar? There are so many beautiful maps, but there’s often neither the time nor much reason to really explore them.
>>563733996i guarantee most people who don't get in the tank, fully assume it plays like the scorpion in halo where you don't really need anyone in it other than maybe for the machine gun.Had a pubby get in with me and he fired one shell off and never reloaded until i told him he could. and then he shot once more before giving up and just machine gunning for another 30 seconds and then got out
>>563733410How wouldn't it make sense? It keeps the spirit of the ergonomics and true aim gimmicks without the bullshit where overshooting your targets makes you aim at them faster for some fucking reason.
>>563734096rundiverfags get the rope, fucking ADHD niggers.
>>563734312It would feel and look retarded.When you lug around a huge machinegun and want to quickly aim it at something to your left you will naturally overshoot it and then correct afterwards instead of slowly dragging it over.
>>563733996>try to climb in as 3rd >tank slowly rotating is cancelling out my climbOPEN THE FUCKING DOOOOOOOOOOOR
>>563734534Your FACE looks and feels retarded. No, when I want to aim at something I just look straight at it, you nimrod.
>>563734587I know mantling is also broken but even when it wasn't the little ladders on the sides of the Bastion not really doing anything bother me.
>>563733996I literally never saw the Bastion being used outside of /hdg/ lobbies
>>563734696Yo mama so retarded they give helldivers requisition for shooting her
>>563733996It's called, get in or get under.Works everytime.
Initiating FTL jump toYo mama's house
>>563734273Needing to initiate the loading process at all feels completely superfluous.Reloading doesn't actually stop you from doing anything, it doesn't impact your gameplay in any way, it would be like if you had to initiate the recharge on the quasar.It's clearly an autoloader based on the fact you can still operate the weaponry during the reloading process and a single man wouldn't be reloading a 120mm gun that fast anyway, you just need to tell it to start reloading for some reason, it's not like you can select from multiple shell types that would perhaps make you want to select a shell type before reloading.
>autocannon>i have to manually shoot it SWEEEEDEEENNNNN
>>563722498It makes no difference, people who tell you this can't read the wiki properly
>>563712968where do I get this fucking menu I swear I will host left 4 dead lobbies
>>563736489>if you shoot flak ammo to cloose there is a high chance that one of the flaks will hit you directly in the head and instantly kill you if you are not wearing armor above 100 ratingwhat did swedes mean by this
>>563736905You will have to give your anal virginity to discord groomers
u won'tyou will only cheat in sc and fuck right off
>>563725352Sorta. I like it because it synergizes perfectly with the Epoch, one Rocket Pod calldown and one fully-charged Epoch shot is usually enough to kill a regular heavy, so you can circumvent the biggest complaint about Epoch which is the whole "you need to take two shots to kill something" bullshit. Beyond that, it can kill Fabricators in one shot, which is super useful, and with a double Eagle stratagem setup you can use it three times and then do a faster Rearm.
>>563737017Do light sissies really die to some puny flak fragment?
>>563737040its OK I will use my alt account>>563737041I already have 10k from using the cheatengine table, I don't need SCs, I need funUnless there is a way to edit modifiers while using some CE table only?
>>563737220even mediumfags are not safe bro
>>563737091One charged and one uncharged epoch shot will just kill a hulk btw, making the 2 shot thing way easier and faster.
>>563734892I have seen it rarely.
>>563737479That's what i said, light sissies.
>>563737660based heavychud
>>563737493So will a charged shot to the eye. But given how wonky it is to manage the Epoch's ammo, sometimes it's easier to just use the Eagle strat since those are "free" so long as you stay on top of the Rearm.
>>563737479>>563737220>>563737017Check this shit out.
>>563738047malicious coding status?

>>563715608Full on nercomorphs from dead space. Down to limb system
>>563738047???Is there actually some trigger in the code that makes a piece of shrapnel triangulate a headshot on you?
>>563738406I don't think so. I had to shimmy into it. It's just there are so many bits of shrapnel and the pattern sends 1-3 of them in your general direction.It also depends on the angle of the surface you're hitting and so on.
>>563738240thank you kind man.gonna test if it actually works and host a left 4 dead lobby if it ACTUALLY increases voteless spam
>>563738907"penguin yay one"
>>563738047They don't have damage falloff/drag?
>>563738406YesIt used to be a lot worse. When they changed the ricochet mechanics for all guns, the first initial pass had all bouncing bullets just blatantly heat seek you and teammates. It wasn't even subtle, the stream of rounds would just fly perfectly back in your direction.
>>563739175Good old days of eagle cluster nuking whole team
>>563738047>light sissy moment
>>563739069They do. But as with all helldiver weapons, its base damage of 110 is massively higher than nearly all enemy attacks, so the headshot multiplier puts it in instagib range.
>>563727610>Idk when they'll be soldspring 2026, so soon. info is available on the internet (the thing you are using to post on 4chan)
>>563739069I expect drag to be calculated by distance from the player, not travel distance of the projectile.
People have been pretty critical of the backpack grenadelauncher but since I got it I feel like it performs pretty decently? It can tear down most heavy units pretty easily while still mowing down chaff. I'm not saying it's the strongest thing ever but I expected it to be way worse from what I've read here.
>>563740046now try base gl launcher
>>563740046It's a fraction as effective as the regular grenade launcher, so it was a massive disappointment.
>>563740046It doesn't even come close to rivalling the power of either the stock GL or the De-Escalator. Both pack way more of a punch in their smaller bursts and free up your backpack slot for an alternative, better option.
>>563740261>>563740316gl can't hurt heavy armor no?
>>563740261Nta, but BFGL is way better and nicer to use unless you're running crutch pack.
Warbond trailer when?
>>563740963See >>563721492Nothing dropped today, so at earliest it's the 21st, next Tuesday.
>>563707775>>563712478Considering scavengers are comparable in size to Great Danes and equipped with much better weaponry, I could probably take one of them if it was alone and I could manage to get behind it and grab a back leg.I imagine they aren't super flexible like cats so they couldn't harm me from that position but getting there isn't going to be easy.If I had a metal pipe or similar I could probably take two or even three at once if I'm not cornered. I have zero confidence I could take any other bug, including pouncers and spitters.
>>563738301I feel you bro I got the same shit from fags here
>>563740539yeah but the bfgl does so little damage that you're better off using an at option anyway
chinadivers are kinda cute sometimes...........
>>563740046When it first released, it came at the same time that the regular Grenade Launcher got a buff to its armor pen, so it was literally worse in almost every metric that mattered. After Grenade Launcher got reduced back to AP3 and the BFGL got an ammo buff, it's still slightly worse but at least it isn't completely eclipsed anymore.>>563740516The De-Escalator suffers from an identity crisis and I hate it for that. It was originally advertised as a "less-lethal crowd control grenade launcher" which would make you think it was good at stunning shit. But instead, it's the "dump all the rounds into a heavy's head and kill it because the armor pen and wonky arcing damage mechanics lets you do that" weapon that isn't even good at stunning crowds of enemies.Not even joking, I would use it more often if it had its damage nerfed greatly, but in exchange each grenade dealt at least Stun Grenade tiers of stun in a wide area. Let me actually crowd control with the thing.
Bulwark with no vitality booster.
>>563732727>couch potato botdiverMake her fatter, "please"
>>563740539It briefly could with the introduction of the belt fed grenade launcher but I suppose they rolled that back to give the belt fed grenade launcher at least a small reason to exist.
Bulwark with vitality booster.
>>563741756And once again the classic argument of "why would I stun them when I could just kill them for the same investment? rears its head
>>563742002
>>563741413>yeah but the bfgl does so little damage that you're better off using an at option anywayBFGL does 2,000 damage against AP4 in the time it takes a recoilless to reload in addition to being an obviously better mobbing tool and not requiring you to stay still.
>>563737220
>>563742225No big boom = bad weapon
>>563738856Status?
>accidentally set my teammate on fire>he salutes and dies as the squids come to bitchslap him>they catch on fire
>>563742225>BFGL does 2,000 damage against AP4You are dealing 90 damage per shot against AP4 after the armor damage reduction, and then a further 25% explosive damage resist reducing it further to 67.5 for parts not 100% resistant entirely. Enemies in this category have health pools in the thousands just in their heads. The Charger's head is 1200. It takes 17 shots to a Charger's head to kill it.
>>563742847>Charger's head is 1200anon...
I think that the BFGL is pretty good at killing fleshmobs.
>>563742154Crowd control by itself is dogshit when you don't have enough killing power to actually dispose of the stunned enemies. But in a teamwork environment where there's actual killing power, crowd control makes the enemies a lot easier to kill and prevents the team from being overwhelmed. Why do you think Gas Mines and EMS/Gas Mortars are so useful in Spread Democracy missions?
>>563743003anon...
>>563743003???
>>563742847So it only takes 3.1875 seconds to kill a charger with the BFGL?That's almost as fast as the quasar.
>>563743204>>563743162Look at my D6-lets, they are so cute
>>563743137>Why do you think Gas Mines and EMS/Gas Mortars are so useful in Spread Democracy missions?The EMS Mortar is advantageous because it provides stun over terrain you can't see normally. Its niche is in how it delivers the stun, not so much that all it does is stun.Gas disorientates AND kills.
>>563743162>>563743204Anons...I think he was trying to say you should shoot the ass.
>>563739426Even king Homer needs vitality booster in this scenario it seems.
>>563742847>It takes 17 shots to a Charger's head to kill it.That's like 3-4 seconds though
>>563743314Are you arguing for or against the BFGL? Because it only gets worse above D6.The Charger was used as an example enemy, not some talk about difficulty.
>>563743314regular chargers still spawn on d10, and spore chargers have the same amount of health... and it would take even more shots to kill a charger behemoth with the bfgl if you shot the head. you are a retard
"Crowd control" is only worthwhile if the opportunity cost to kill the enemy is very high while the opportunity cost to stun them is very low. With the exception of gas making enemies retarded, all of the crowd control effects in this game have extremely fucking high opportunity costs because Alexus is a retard.Honorable mention to:>using explosive weapons like xbow as a sound lure to divert patrols before they ever engage the party>using lure mines to troll leviathans
>>563743438he didn't try to say anything at all, he just posted the text equivalent of a smug anime girl with no explanation and expected us to read his mind
>>563743715Knockback and stagger are good though.
I concede, anon has a point for the bfgl being decent for at
>>563743447>make shotgun slugs and pistol bullets lose 50% or more of their damage at 50m>but not shrapnel which is not aerodynamic and is easily stopped by basic body armor and steel helmets dating back to ww1I want to get off sweden's wild ride
Sorry but if its cooldown is longer than 80 seconds I don't give a fuck about it.>This post brought to you by the Orbital Gatling/Orbital Gas/EAT/MG Sentry gang
>>563744482Luv me MG sentry i'll fuck it if i could
>>563744482Cool down there, hothead
>>563744035Not on their own. Only when stapled to something that is killing the target at the same time.
>>563744482I'm the opposite, I take the longest CD shit because my brain is easily overloaded by having to manage cooldowns
>>563744240Anon, shoot a teammate with the sg88 break action shotgun, that thing will just evicerate teammates at range.
>>563744482NEATs are alright because I only use them vs squid drops and their cooldown lines up with squid drop cooldowns.
>>563744807I'm the opposite, i completely forget i have a 380 or walking.
>>563744703MG Sentry is the lovable workhorse of this game. Should have been a learning experience for AH tbqhwyf, proof that some stratagems really do just need a cooldown reduction and suddenly they're top tier.
>>563744841none of this shit makes any sense, buckshot has 50% drag, pistols boolets have 120%, slugs have 200% (lol)
>>563745017also I am pretty sure mg sentry was light pen before until it was given medium pen, it probably would have less use it stayed light pen
>>563745017Yeah, like the spear.
>>563745372Yeah...
>>563739489>>563739774Damage falloff should be 0.4 damage per meter. Headshot is 150%. Damage is 275. To survive. It needs to travel over 400m. Basically anywhere you can shoot is close enough to headshot
>>563746201Shrapnel does 110 damage and has negligible drag, only slightly higher than ARs and machine guns at 40%. No idea why you think it's 0.4 damage/meter when no one actually knows what the drag calculation is.

How'd you guys feel if the dropship could explode during extract
>Orbital Gatling Barrage is FREEE>HOWEVER
>>5637467023/4
>>563743306quacksar can do it from 10 miles away
>>5637467023/4 lets ZOMBIEEES
>>563746702We are full.
>>563745017Dunno why so many people pick gatling when it's prone to team killing and has a longer cd
>>563747579Just imagine if pelican called in that your current position is to hot and marks a new extract somewhere else on the map with a short amount of time to reach before he just extracts.
>>563716254Arc effects (damage, how many targets the arc will jump to, stun duration) feel random. One shot might get the maximum number of jumps while another one doesn't. You're getting bad information though. Kill counts on certain weapons / backpacks are broken. Guard dog and arc-based weapons seem particularly susceptible to this. I've regularly seen single kills get counted as 3-4. The K9 backpack is the pinnacle of both problems. It seems to pull inflated kill counts, is extremely inconsistent, and is a TK machine on top of it. That's why I love it so much.
>>563747962It has its uses, it's more likely to survive and kill more in situations where the enemy is right on top of you.That's probably not the reason those people pick it though.
>>563748135>if pelican called in that your current position is to hotNot sure if it was a fever dream, but I recall that actually happening on launch when there was a bile titan or something blocking the landing area.The pelican just didn't land until the area was clear.
>>563747962It's a lot better at not getting overrun by squid mechs for one.
>>563748190Went with a full arc loadout against mindless masses and it's hilariously stupid how you can sit inside your arc grenade, point blank descalator shots while k9 zaps to get hilarious numbers. Harvest can't even kill you if you get up close because they only use the taser
>>563748384could have been the situation where, because there was so much going on in the landing zone, the players were out of the range which causes the pelican to hover until they come back in. but also i'm not here to deny your actual experience if that wasn't the case
>>563747962You need a higher IQ to start valuing things like uptime on your skills. Most people prefer flashy big effects.
>>56374796290% of people have an IQ below 120.
>>563748585I remember him actually having a voice line calling out that the extraction area was too hot.It's not on the wiki though, so I probably saw it in a dream.
>>563749152Sure you just didn't mix it up with the lines for when the extraction expires from players leaving the area?
>>563747962It also has more ammo and DPS, and if you pick sentries you clearly don't care about friendly fire.
>>563749264Gatling's effective ammo is far less than its total ammo because it wastes a ton swinging between targets and takes about a second to stop shooting after the target dies.
>>563749237I saw it in a dream, nigger, that means it's real.
>>563733996I don't get in it because it's fucking boring and lameOf course the Swedes couldn't make it an actually useful tank because muh difficulty. They could have made a cool tank and countered it by giving enemies AT units but that would be difficult and Swedes have Somali penises that need servicing
>>563738047Jesus what do they make those helmets out ofhttps://youtu.be/W0yY4DCShog
>>563749743You want to give bugs rocketlaunchers?Are you with the super CIA or something?
>>563747962Because in the absence of enemies that are capable of instantly killing your sentry like Chargers and Harvesters (or if you're good at staying on top of killing them before they can kill your sentry), Gatling is far better at "I will kill every non-heavy enemy in this general area and leave nothing to worry about, and even still stick around in case some unexpected stragglers pop up." The MG Sentry is slower at killing, oftentimes runs out of ammo before all the enemies die, and in some situations can get surrounded and destroyed by chaff while it tries to kill them. It's worse at uptime and "efficiency," but if you don't need to throw something down every 100 seconds, the Gatling is better for stand-and-fight situations.
>>563749793Put this on, Helldiver!
>>563749793>>563750504>20mmit dont matter what helmet u wear, its not getting stopped bozos

>>563731620I started running peak physique lately for the hmg, and decided to use that opportunity to try out the other abysmal dogshit ergo primaries like the one-two, dominator etcI'm having more fun now than I've had in agesEvery single fucking gun feels good now, even D tier shit like the counter sniperI don't want to go back
>>563750737Wrong.Wrong.
>>563750463Doesn't MG have better uptime?Either way uptime is often a bad thing for sentries, just increases the likely hood of it shooting you in the back.I find myself shooting turrets that served their purpose to prevent them from shooting me in the back 10 seconds later.
>>563750949ok retard
>>563750737It's not a 20mm shell, it's shrapnel from a 20mm shell.Pretty much the exact thing helmets have been designed to protect against for over 100 years now.I'd be more surprised if you found a military grade helmet that didn't protect against long range low caliber autocannon shrapnel.
the illuminate have taught the bugs how to use magic
>>563751150>20mmWrong. It's 10mm shrapnel.>Not getting stopped.>>563742141
>>563751156>long range>50 metersAnon...
>player count dropped so low from it being a squid MO that the bug fuckers are actually taking Acrux IX genuinely funny
>>563751335Vax status?
>>563750952Pretty sure all sentries have the same timer that makes it automatically retract even if it has ammo remaining. The MG Sentry's cooldown is low enough that if your first one doesn't run out of ammo or die, you can toss a second one and have two at the same time for a short period of time. Don't think I've ever done that with the Gatling.
I got bonked by some trash or a ricochet on the shooting range that flew back at me. Gave me a headache 15 minutes later that was about as bad as it got. If I wore a helmet I would have been fine. Unless it was a helldiver helmet then my head would have exploded.
>>563751385>>563751156shrapnel of a 20mm could very well be compared to 50bmg, and helmets dont stop that, could it be done? yes but those odds are slim at that short range
>>563751757Nu uh, retard. You died. You're dead right now.
>>563751618I think it's more a case of botdivers being raped so hard they barely make up 10% of the playerbase
>>563750189Bugs would be the easiest because you could just make it so chargers and titans can flip itBots they could just make certain of the little units spawn with AT missiles, if the current bots aren't tough enough on their ownSquids they could make the tank a bit weak versus their energy weapons, so you could mow down zombies but have to be careful about projectilesThat's just off the top of my head, and they don't even have to make new units. But even that is too much work for the lazy swigger, who makes the average nigger look like an Irish sandhog from the 1910s
I love the MG sentry but there's some malicious swede code that spawns a charger half the time when you deploy it
I haven't played in a month.Should I come back?
>>563751468As far as shrapnel goes, yeah. Especially for such a small explosive.Grenades usually have a effective shrapnel range well below that, any injuries caused further than that are almost freak accidents, and even the most ridiculously packed 20mm shells will have a small fraction the explosive filler of a hand grenade.
>>563752041>we'll make the tank better by making it die faster
>>563746702I crashed.
>>563752234nahno content as usual, just lazy swigger MOs
>>56375191420mm shrapnel isn't hitting anywhere close to as hard as a full size 12.7mm bullet man.
>>563747962>gatling>prone to team killingWhat?
>>563752140Chargers are the sole reason that I never bring sentries to bugs. Maybe if they one day fix the Charger AI so that it doesn't automatically treat sentries as maximum priority targets, I might change my mind.
>>563752493or you could just git gud and put your sentries in good spots
I would like to make everyone aware that there are real life man portable armor plates that are rated to protect against multiple hits from 14.5x114mm.
>>563752454Yes, that's what sentries are known for.
An Anti-Gloom containment haz-op diver warbond would be kewl
>>563752765Wouldn't that fuck you up even if it stopped it?
>>563753068Collab warbond with the new MENACE game

Corroboration post.
The shrapnel of the AC flak round does more damage and penetration moving at 30 meters a second (slower than a baseball pitch) compared to the liberator round moving at 900 meters a second.I think this is Swedish.
>>563745017>>563747962MG sentry made for lovey dovey sex in missionary.Gatling Sentry is made for rough hate sex.
>>563753401They are both made for RAPE
>>563744703>>563753401t. cyborg radical
>>563753214The sheer weight of the plate might let you get away with just some broken ribs but it allows you to choose between a gigantic HMG hole in your chest or some broken ribs.
>>563752765>>563753214>>563753542>armor plates for 14.5lmao no, also>rated =/= will>what is blunt force traumado u also think body armor is fully covering?>>56375335820mm shrapnel is a big ass pencil and the liberator is a small fast pencil so it would chunk more flesh but not pen as much
>>563752454The gatling sentry doesn't immediately stop firing once it finishes killing a target. It takes a second to finish spinning down first. Not only does this waste TREMENDOUS sums of ammo, completely negating its "advantage" of having more ammo than MG sentry, but it will happily keep mag dumping the whole time after killing one target as it spins 180 degrees to kill something else in the other direction. This will cut teammates in half as it happily spins around in circles while holding the trigger down and flagging the entire fucking world.You must have 20 minutes of game time to not have noticed this.
>>563753640You're not killing anyone by picking up a piece of shrapnel and throwing it at them major league style.They need to make the shrapnel travel faster.
Does securing cities in a defence campaign do anything?
>>563753891didn't say it was perfect, i bet the game doesn't calculate speed of the shrapnel at all just that it is shrapnel and if u get hit in the head u die
probably a stupid question but, what are the best loadouts for soloing higher difficulties on bugs & bots
>>563752140I can confirm this.
>>563734892I often see the bastion in pub lobbies because I usually bring and drive it
>>563753935Yes.
>>563755138Helldiver scum committing crimes against botmanity
>>563754542Honestly hard to answer everyone has a different flavor of solodiving so I cant help either
>>563752261No, you make it better by making it an actual tank, like with a turret and armor and stuff like an actual tank, but then give the enemy ways to deal with it that keep you from steamrolling the map. You know... like a tankInstead of whatever bullshit we got
>>563754542idk about others but I always pack EATs60 second CD and fast drop times make them very good for emergencies or staging ahead of time, as well as sniping things from a distance
There should be missions that take place in the area an ICBM is targetedIn ICBM missions they go off a dozen miles awayBut there should be a giant red zone that appears on maps that tells you to run away or else you'll all die unless you go to the non-red zoneJust to make the planets feel a lil more connected
>>563754542I've had some success with triple sentry + AC on D10 warstrider seeds. Might be the best chance for shitters on bots solo.
>>563756108Anon, an ICBM blast range is fucking massive. The speed it reaches the destination during ICBM missions means it's a close target, and the mission area is already skirting the edge of the safe zone of it's blast radius. Now if instead you made it an overground mission that can turn into underground mission, you have something special.
>>563756108>a random mission that has 0 reinforcements left gets nuked every time another group finishes an ICBM objectiveMake it happen swedes
>>563756108interesting idea, ill be sure to let our indian outsourcers get right on it!
ggs from zombby lobby, weird how sandstorms weren't synced but the rainstorms were.
>>563756679A little bit better of a view where the chasing watcher highlighted the sand particles that were part of the exostorm weather effect.
>>563756497It could strike at the very edge of a mission map and even if youre in the safe spot everyone even baddies get blown away off their feetOmicron bug missions would be fun yes to stay safe undergroundItd just be a nice bit of danger flavor to addMaybe it could trigger during the last 7 minutes of a mission to punish slowdivers into hurrying up
>>563756679bro thinks he's democracy itself
>>563752493Stop thinking of your sentry as a main damage dealer.Start thinking of your sentry as a disposable SEAF battle buddy you can call in and deploy on demand to provide flanking fire damage multiplication and or serve as a distraction while you run away.This is why the regular machine gun sentry is a a battlefield king. You will almost always have something available to provide covering fire for a seconds on demand
I'm not playing Appropriators on megacity againBunch of floating freaks just bounces everywhere

i need a generalist loadout to carry retards on d10 appropriatorsthere's so much shit to deal with because they all just keep runningSHOOT THE FUCKING ENEMIES
>>563757887Maxigun or AC (on flak), everything else is free slots.
>>563732727
Finally 1000k, when do you guys started playing? >December 2024I remember playing this game religiously every day, stopping like in April or May, then picking it up again in September and I've playing it almost every day ever since into the unjust came out. I decided to run some games using the standard loadout (Liberator, peace maker, frag nades, orbital strike, mg, sentry and EAT's) against bugs and mindless hordes and it was quite fun.Frag nades are easily a 10/10, the liberator is so reliable and never lets me down, same goes for the EAT's, the orb strike and MG are really underwhelming, idk what is it with the MG, it just feels weak for some reason.
>>563743563>>563743517I have never seen any discussion on this board about "chargers" that is not implicitly referencing behemoths. Why even talk about sub-D7 enemies?Hilarious that normal chargers were your default reference as if you play sub-D7 regularly, you don't right?Anyway, BFGL is still great against bugs since they get fucked by explosive damage anyway and thermites/ultimatum are always useful for any chargers not killed by your teammates. It also isn't bad against BTs in a pinch. Note that I said not bad and not that it is efficient at it.Excellent against bots too due sustained firing, strong AP, and damage type. Surprisingly good against War Striders and can be used to take down Gunships on occasion.Idk about Illuminate, I still don't respect them as a faction.
>>563758367this nigga played for 114 years
>>563757887Maximise the amount of bullets you fire.>maxigun>gatling sentry>gatling barrage>mg sentry
>>563758476Nigger it doesn't matter what heavy enemy is used as an example, that's pure missing the forest for the trees.
>>563758616There is a sentence here but not a point. At least not one that makes sense.
>>563757439Indeed her cooldown is so short you can have TWO mg sentries up at the same time.
>>563758367>1000kgo back to school
>>563758476All bug heavies chargers, like how all armored vehichles are just tanks.
>>563752493You're a retard for putting the sentries alongside your squad like they're one of the boys. A sentry's ability to draw aggro is not a downside, it is one of its greatest strengths that you should be leveraging. Toss the sentry over to the flanks or slightly behind the breach at something like the 11 o'clock or 1 o'clock positions. Now, when the chargers spawn, they turn to face the sentry. The charger's ass is now exposed and it can be easily killed by the helldivers with all sorts of weapons. ACs/eruptors/grenade launchers/machineguns/what have you. Now you have an easily killed charger without needing to use full blown AT to do it.TECHNOLOGIA.
>>563739175>When they changed the ricochet mechanics for all guns, the first initial pass had all bouncing bullets just blatantly heat seek you and teammates.what is this retarded imagined bullshit?the "ricochets will now properly hit the helldiver that fired them" patch didn't make them into fucking player seeking missiles. prior to that a ricochet could hurt other enemies or other players but not the person who fired the shot that bounced. all that patch did was enable self damage on ricochets
>>563758367I wish the orb strike was like a single 380MM bombIt feels like the game just slaps an "explosion.png" on the map and kills maybe 2 thingsIt should be a big sucker punch from the sky
>>563760190>I wish the orb strike was like a single 380MM bombanon... orbital precision strike is a single 380mm shell
>>563758741Getting uppity because someone used a Charger as an example is not only not the point of the argument, in which the BFGL is naff against big enemies, it's more damning for the BFGL. It struggles to kill a Charger head on with 15% of its ammo pool. It takes roughly 22% for a Behemoth. Meanwhile the De-Escalator, a non-backpack weapon, can also kill a basic ass Charger in 15% of its ammo pool (6 shots). Granted there's a dice roll involved, but it's capable, and your ass is free for a Warp Pack, or a Supply Pack, or a Guard Dog etc.
>>563759880>the "ricochets will now properly hit the helldiver that fired them" patch didn't make them into fucking player seeking missilesIt quite literally did. Shut up newfag.
>>563760295Ah well its a bad one!3.80MM more like
>>563760331Can or will makes a large difference though.Also not reloading is great.
>>563760295>>563760562Finding out how anaemic the high explosive orbital strike projectile is is an important part in any helldiver's career.
>>563758482>>563759323oops>>563760190>>563760562Feels really weak, they could al least lower the cooldown for it or something.
>>563760331Recoilless takes 1/6 (16.66%) of it's ammo pool to kill a charger.BFGL still kills a behemoth (I would say charger but that would confuse you) shooting the head within the time it takes for a recoilless to reload and uses 21 nades or 17.5% of it's total ammo.
>>563760756Orbital Gatling could never betray meLove me a hard wall of damage
>>563757887Here's what I've been using>heavy space-cop armor to negate the threat of a flying oveersaars deciding to properly aim today and nail you with a full fucking burst to the chest. medium space-cop if the terrain is really shitty like snow/mud.>coyote>warrant or grenade pistol. Pick your poison between a sidearm that is good at quickly killing watchers/flying oversaars/shield broken mech pilots/melee oversaar in your face, or something extra for destroying UFOs and arc towers>arc grenade>De-escalator>supply pack>HMG emplacement>AT emplacementCoyote is good at dealing with obrtruders/oversaars, and can be used to destroy harvester shield generators if given the opportunity. In a pinch you can kill harvesters outright with it. De-escalator basically fucks over everything on the mechasquid front (just don't shoot it near friendlies). If the enemy force starts reaching critical mass, arc grenades are very effective at killing groups of oversaars and even mecha squids. Just don't toss the arc grenades uphill because they'll probably bounce downhill. The HMG emplacement is THE best in class weapon to solo entire fucking squid drops. You just need the breathing room to set the thing up (arc grenades can create that breathing room). AT emplacement is basically a slightly weaker HMG emplacement vs the squid forces, but it also gives you an option for clearing out landed warpships since this loadout otherwise is a bit lacking in terms of demo force for destroying spawners.
>>563760502it didn't retard. the reason there was so much hysteria over it was because people read that patch and then went and fired their eruptor and got killed by the orbital airbust tier shrapnel it prodeded and misattributed it to this change. normal bullets riocheting didn't start magically seeking player heads. all the hysteria was over the eruptor killing the user because people were now aware that "something changed" and blamed it, which eventually lead to the the eruptor having its shrapnel removed
>>563760818The only change that it needs is having its lopsided kinetic vs explosive damage ratio fixed. It used to be a 1:2 kinetic to explosive damage ratio, until the 60 day patch where the kinetic damage got cranked way up while the blast stayed the same, turning it into a 3.5:1 ratio, while a lot of the enemies had their health increased, which effectively nerfed the explosive part of the strike.
>>563760902Also who shoots the head instead of the ass. If you shoot the ass it mogs every AT i'm pretty sure.
>>563760756OPS was meta* before the 60 day patch. Back when its splash damage was enough to actually kill a charger/bile titan.>* except on operations with the "your reds just miss. LMAO" modifier.
>>563761151all 120/380 orbitals and eagle airstrike/500kg bombs need their projectile and explosive damage values just straight up swapped. would fix them intantly
>>563761204Again, missing the forest for the trees when saying just shoot it in the ass. The math is identical with scaling adjustments whether it's a Bile Titan or a War Strider.
>running around squid outpost>run into tesla spire that blended into the background>not this time squiggers>jump backwards literally as soon as it turns on>die anyway>reinforced into a 380 barrage that kills me as soon as I step out of the hellpodI'll just call it a day
>>563761413did you know you can blow up a chargers ass from the front by just shooting the ground underneath it?
>>563760902>>563761204Shouldn't the BFGL leg-meta the chargers? That's 1000 AP4 armor to defeat + 800 AP2 to defeat, compared to 1600 AP4 for the head. In addition to opening the door for alternative weapons to finish off the exposed legflesh, I think it's effectively less HP going for the legs than purely going for the head once you factor in the armor/AP match damage reduction.
>>563761134No, it literally did, newfag. The amount of people I killed with HMG ricochet was absurd.
>>563761256>Back when its splash damage was enough to actually kill a charger/bile titan.Bile titans only if the explosion hit multiple body parts with high damage transfer to main, right?
>>563761704I think shooting the head might let you splash multiple parts.
Gas or fire grenades?
>>563761704It's good in theory but the legs are constantly moving. Better to hit the torso from the side than try to track the legs imo>>563761413No idea what you are talking about. If you have used the BFGL you would now how good it is against many heavies.
>>563761582>Again, missing the forest for the trees when saying just shoot it in the ass. The math is identical with scaling adjustments whether it's a Bile Titan or a War Strider.Look, here, I'll make it simple for you.We're shooting a new enemy, it's a sphere that's AP4 all around with a 25% explosive resist. It has no weakpoint to exploit, it is a vague representation of all AP4+ enemies in the game emulsified into a ball.
honestly I don't know the math but BFGL does fuck up chargers fast which is really convenient on top of being pretty good for chaff and mid-sized targetsit does chew through a lot of ammo on BTs though so that sucks
>>563762047>If you have used the BFGL you would now how good it is against many heavies.It's dogshit compared to both the standard GL and the De-Escalator. I don't know how you fags can even stomach using the BFGL, it's garbage.
>>563762034Gas. The lingering effect on fire nades sucks ass, enemies will often just walk through that without catching on fire, but everything more or less instantly gets gassed.
>>563761887and the day the patch dropped I took the MMG, found a charger, and unloaded multiple full boxes into it to cause ricochets to fuck around with it and the only ones that ever hit me were ones I purposely positioned to bounce back at me.why wasn't I buzzsawing my head off every time I hit the charger no matter the angle? because it wasn't fucking programmed to,dumb fuck.
>>563762052But most enemies have some form of lower armour weakpoint that AP4 weapons can abuse.The whole point of AT is to ignore weakspots in favour of just having high damage.
>>563762034sex
>>563762052>>563762192I am thoroughly convinced you have not used it or are simply bad.
>>563762192Standard GL can't do shit against heavy armored enemies and the De-Escalator is unreliable at best.
>>563762112>it does chew through a lot of ammo on BTs though so that sucksif it didn't it would be the most OP weapon in the game. anti-chaff/anti-medium weapon should not also efficiently kill top tier heavies.
I have yet to see a good argument for using the BFGL when the AC exists
>>563762192>BFGL, it's garbage.I love it. You can equally effectively destroy hordes of enemies and not be defenseless against heavy enemies. You can kill two titans, maybe even ammo enough for three.
>>563762327I have used it, and it's doodoo.
>>563762489well it's not exactly stellar at chaff and medium either, it's just kinda decent>>563762609well it doesn't have to reload constantly, but yeah the AC is sorta just more of a long range BFGL
>>563762609You can actually full auto the BFGL and you don't have to remember to reload after every fifth shot.
>>563762840Yeah, but you need like five shots for every enemy and you'll run out of ammo way faster than the AC
>>563762921Greenery certainly makes the city map look less shit.
>>563762921comfy
>>563762670Ah gee yeah this support really sucks man it took a whole 3 seconds to kill this charger just shooting it inaccurately.
>>563762921I can never find these kino ass mapsJust red white ice bot worlds and stinky green pee bug worlds
>>563762951The AC runs out of ammo pretty fast as well.Plus, killing bile titans is viable with the BFGL unlike with the AC.The crazy recoil of the AC doesn't let you kill heavies fast enough when they're gunning for your ass.
>>563763217Yeah, it does suck, that's a massive waste of ammo for what it does versus the slots it occupies.
>>563763217It seems to me that this is not the maximum fire rate.
>why can't my support weapon destroy the entire map with one set of ammunitionCreamatorniggers absolutely inadequate
why are people bothering with the Illuminate defense, we could have everyone on acrux and phact bay
>>563763645No, it's more like the BFGL is spread too thin in what it can do and the ammo suffers from it. Either be good at killing chaff or good at killing heavies, not mid at both. Yes, it's mid at chaff clear.
>>563762613This, it's sorta like the AC but more auto.
>>563763362>massive waste of ammoWhat in the world are you saving your ammo for, the next mission?Do you never pick up resupplies or ammo boxes?Do you never switch to your primary or secondary?
>>5637633621 stratagem slot.That's a pretty good deal.
>>563763841BFGL has more total damage than the regular GL, and that's without taking armour pen in account.
>>563763242Its guys using the cheat menu to force biomes, they arent things you can find naturally. You should be cursing the swedes for keeping them disabled.
>>563764250It's also without taking the massive difference in aoe into account. The regular GL can easily hit 5+ enemies at once, the BFGL struggles to hit more than two per shot.
I remember a while back people were debating if post-buff RR was actually a good support because EATs "had a shorter cooldown and you got a hellpod". You can always get more retarded BFGL hating anon. Not that you should aspire to that.
squigger lobbysteam://joinlobby/553850/109775242144835184/76561198008364447
>>563764331fuck!!!!!
>>563763362alright now you're just mad that you're bad
>>563764435I find the BFGL better at killing stuff when it's slightly spread out because it has 3 times the ammo and doesn't massively overkill almost everything.
>>563764057>Do you never pick up resupplies or ammo boxes?When you're playing on city missions, 50% of the time they bug out and don't spawn. The map is just littered with empty POIs.
>>563762921SOVL
>>563765196bot megacities are especially egregious at this. those stepped pit POI's are always fucking empty
>>563764796That big tree corridor was also technically out of bounds. Another technical note is that all I did was change the planet's biome to the same as Bore Rock's (the Basic Swamp one) and replace the normal missions with a megacity version. When megacities are available on any basic swamp biome, these features should be able to spawn without cheating them in.
>>563762609BFGL pulls ahead of AC when there's 5 fleshmobs coming at you.
>engineering kit armour passive it's pretty good. Siege ready has been pleasing me lately, too. I kind of wish Peak Physiques ergo buff wasn't stuck on something otherwise useless.
>>563762609My character looks cooler with the BFGL.
>>563762609can't kill chargers easily with the AC>>563765880also this
>>563766260>can't kill chargers easily with the AC3 shots to the ass and it just fucking dies and shooting the front staggers it.
>>563765538>tree corridor was also technically out of boundsWhat the FUCK is wrong with swedes. Livid.
>>563766506or I can just stand my ground and unload grenades in its face until it keels over without having to figure out a way to get behind it during a breach
>>563766762There's a lot of stuff that generates out of bounds so the map border is more concealed.
>>563766506I mean he did say "as easily"running around behind it or waiting for it to charge you then matador-baiting it not as easily as just shooting it in the face from afar for a second
>>563766982Couldn't the AC also just shoot its face though?
>>563767097armor penetration too low
>>563766796>>563766982>>56376709710 APHE shots to the face of a behemoth
so we're totally getting a warbond trailer today right?right...?
>>563766506Not arguing for or against, BFGL does the ass in 7 so they're similar for ammo usage % in this case.
>>563767254it's well past working hours in Sweden, its past 10pm
AC just feels a little weakLike for a gun so big the damage feels like dogshitIt's flak rounds are way better than it's APbut that's just mei dun like how it plays so i dun use it muchsimple as
>>563716274idk what you're on about but you should take your meds, you're below furfaggots
>>563767256I like both.But anon pretending AC doesn't easily kill chargers is just silly.
>>563767156>4 pen AC can't penetrate the 4 armor of a charger headanon.....
>>563767232so you either reload halfway, or do the long reload after. I'll still take the nade launcher. it's just less of a pain in the ass on bugs. AC is probably better on bots tho.
>>563767456Those fuckin C U Next Tuesdays
>>563767097>>563767156Should be 8 to the face, 7 to the leg.
>>563767254No, see>>563721492Zero chance of a trailer until next Tuesday at the earliest. Trailers are always dropped Tuesday or Thursday between 1-2pm BST.
>>563767459I agree, I think the Aphet rounds should go through enemies like how the harpoon gun does.
>>563767513>>563767663I could have sworn it bounced off chargers. Guess I'm wrong. I'm still not kneeling down to reload on bugs tho. Fuck that noise.
the spear needs to be like the one in metal gear solid 5,why you ask? because it's cooler,oh and just give it a buff like the autocannon please Sweden I'll give you more immigrants I know you love them
>>563767950APHET are explosive it would make zero sense for them to pierce. They'd need to add another type.
>>563768136Are they actually though? I swear the flak rounds feel like they actually explode and the APHET rounds just feel like slugs.
>>563767950>I think the Aphet rounds should go through enemiesI don't think you understand how an APHE shell works. APHE stands for "armour piercing, high explosive" which means even though it is an armour piercing shell, it contains a high explosive bursting charge designed to explode inside the target after penetrating armour. If an APHE shell is going through multple targets it means it's not detonating. in game terms that means it would have its 150 damage secondary explosion on impact and the projectile would have a much lower durable damage ratio since the HE part is what is contributing to its 80% durable damage ratio (was 100% before it got a damage buff)
>>563767961it used to be like that long ago because chargers and BTs had tank armorI was surprised when I came back a month ago because I could now mow down chargers with stuff like the HMG and AC
>>563768343>in game terms that means it would have its 150 damage secondary explosion on impactit would not*
>>563725352they can be good on bugs, though they act more like an unupgraded 500kg in that it usually takes two uses to kill a bile titan, and you only get 4 uses, so you only have "two uses" of it. they're more consistent than 500kg though in that they'll never fail to do dmg despite exploding directly on an enemy
>>563768118The monkey's paw curls. AC now does explosive damage for it's APHET shells! This means it no longer gets reduced by durable damage at all! (every heavy with exdr gets way tankier and behemoth heads take 11 shots now)
Just make the heavy machine gun have more ammo and a tiny little bit of damage and it would be S tier,why you ask? because BRTTTTTTTTTTTT it's stinger than tun tun tun pic unrelated-i just like dinosaurs
>>563727241buy control group now so you can farm for the warbond which is gonna be revealed next week
>>563752140I genuinely believe this.
>>563767961Chargers have lots of angles so in practice some shots will bounce and it'll take a couple more.
>>563768783
>>563768783>What if humans never hunted animals?We'd still live in trees and caves because big brain needs big energy and wild plants can't provide that
>>563767961It bounced off of old chargers. They used to be armor level 5 and the AC would bounce off them. Then ages ago they nerfed charger armor to appease the babies. Digbug chargers have level 5 heads
>>563769009
>>563769061I Just posted the image with the dinosaur with the big tits and ass without a second thought,maybe in the future we could have them,a man can dream
>>563769375If you can't knock up a beast girl, you're just not trying hard enough.
>>563768783>if humans didn't hunt animals dinosaurs would come backi.. what
>Every single top mod on nexus rn is gooner shit
>>563769375>>563769623Interspecies families are canon in TES. The child inherits the species of the mother.
>>563769623True>>563769624Big dinosaur with fat pussy and titties,don't take the vegan nonsense into account although I'll make sure the next time I take out that part
>>563769961Canon that no man or mer has ever crossbred with the beast races.
>>563739000nice digitshuh
>>563769961if you think about it a reptile with a human it's the best combination also I only played Skyrim on the Xbox 360 so I'm uncultured with the rest of the series but I would try Morrowind when I get it on discount
Where's my primary single shot bolt action marksman rifle that's heavy penetration but slow as fuck to re-chamber and reload?
>>563769786The people yearn for thick helldivers gf
>>563770396The Eruptor fits this description literally 100%.
>>563770905No, the Eruptor is all explosive damage. I want a real AMR, a single-shot, single-target ass raper that doesn't even need to headshot Devastators. It just splits them in half when you hit the gut in one shot. In exchange for this 800+ damage, it's the must cumbersome 10 ergo slow as fuck reload pseudo support weapon imaginable in your primary shot.
>>563771169>No, the Eruptor is all explosive damage.>does more ballistic damage than explosive damage without even factoring in the shrapnel into accountwhat did he mean by this
>>563767893sauce on pic?
>>563745489this isn't happening because the spear is bad, it's happening because the harvester specifically has a good matchup against rockets unless they're hitting the unshielded leg joint
>>563771338You know what I mean, and you know it's not the same as what I'm proposing. This is like saying the Sweeper is redundant because we have the M90A.
>>563771169Whenever you come to terms with how unlikely something like that is, the Eruptor will be there to greet you with open arms.
Getting bored, might jack off to fat rumped Leandivers.
>>563753068>halos look like generic extraction shooter army guys nowbruhhh
>>563753068I hate the overly complex generic military sci fi aesthetic so much bros
>>563770445yes, so true!
>>563755591true, there's no wrong answer as long as it works for you though>>563756051gonna try this on bugs first>>563756436this worked pretty well until a very zesty warstrider seeded blitz mission. due to ragdolling rodeo, i didn't evac but still got mission complete
>>563773889Replace one of the sentries with EAT and it'll help with the spicy warstrider seeds a bit, and also the blitz. AC, rocket+AC sentry, EAT17.
>>563754542this guy has good content on what loadouts to bring and whyhttps://youtu.be/znHUbYZLvuA
How would you fix Eagle rocket pods? My idea:>revert explosion back to AP5>increase explosion inner radius to 3m>increase impact damage to 800>add a spread pattern to decrease accuracy to an area about 10m wide>revert uses to base 2Now you have an airstrike that can target a heavy in a group or one massive enemy, either dealing high damage to multiple heavies and their supporting units, or spreading a lot of damage out across several parts of something big.I think that would differentiate it enough from EAS, 500kg and ORC while also fulfilling a niche that doesn't exist in any of the reds.
>>563771582Maybe make it loud as hell so you get patrols zerging you and you have to reposition after each shot. Doesn't make much sense when rocket launchers and machine guns don't have the same effect but w/e, I'm just thinking of downsides that would convince the swiggers to implement such a weapon.Not that I personally have an issue with it as you described, I'm all for OP weapons and power creep, I think that's what keeps the game zesty and moving forward
>>563775765110mm rockets are supposed to be the eagle equivalent of the orbital railcannon strike. giving it big splash radius and area of effect goes against its identitywhat it actually needs is even tighter spread so most of the rockets actually hit the same part, and it needs medium units like scout striders and brood commanders removed from its targeting pool
>>5637757652 uses is too little. 110mm pods are meant to be a red alternative to support weapons, and a weaker version of the railcannon. The problem is it consistently feels weaker than support weapons and doesn't have as much uptime either.If the 110mms were both consistent and had 4-5 uses, they'd be a fantastic plug for people running the Stalwart/MMG/Laser Cannon etc. who need a punchier option against bigger targets with less critical weakpoints.
>>563771396pretty sure its AI
>>563775765make three of the rockets HE-TBX and have the other two retain HEAT properties and further evolve it into a gambler's weapon of choicebuff the HEAT rockets damage to at least 1300, reduce splash to like 50nerf the other three to 500 but give it a gas confusion effect and heavy fire DOT to further simulate the TBX part, maybe even create a minor smoke curtainand remove the autoaim
>>563774617cool, i'll give that a shot>>563775107thanks dude
>>563776653>have the other two retainthree
>>563776078>>563776208Maybe it just needs the AP5 explosion back. Nerfing it to AP3 was a weird decision that took away a lot of its consistency and made that entire aspect of the damage model useless because most of the shit you use it against takes no damage from medium AP explosives.
>>563776943it's a HEAT rocket, not a high explosive rocket, the secondary explosion is incidental. having the damage front-loaded into the projectile is better since it bypasses exDR. on paper the rockets do a combined 3600 AP7 100% durable projectile damage and could kill chargers, hulks, tanks, and even warstriders with a single call-in. the problem is it just doesn't always deliver all that damage to the same part, or it misses completely. yes yes making it a big boom would solve that but you also don't want it to have a big explosion so you can use it close to friendlies like the ORC can. they don't need to rework it and make it into something it isn't, they just need to tighten the bolts on the spread pattern of the rocket, both in each volley and between each volley.
>>563775107He states during his commentary, at 29:12, that the devs confirmed they coded the sentries to shoot at you on purpose "because it would be funny" but doesn't give a source on that. I'm assuming they said something in the discord once.Anyone have a screenshot of them saying something to this effect?
>>563778438My experience is it's not so much the game is coded that the turrets will shoot at you on purpose, but what I incidentally feel is true in my bones is that the game will intentionally spawn enemies in such a direction that the sentry has to cross your path to shoot them. This is very noticeable on Squids who get spawned in by their portals when direct reinforcements aren't involved. You'll watch your Gatling Sentry swing in your direction to shoot Voteless that just appeared directly behind you.
>>563777749Yeah, that's what I'm saying in the post you replied to. On launch, it had a small(1.5-5m) AP5 explosive effect which tacked on an extra 200 per rocket. It got nerfed to AP3 around the time of the heavy enemy rework, which means that 200 damage is now effectively missing from it on anything with a heavy armored main. Having that small AP5 explosive effect adds consistency by overlapping the explosive damage in the space between the aiming points. That also opens up the ability to hit multiple parts and stack additional damage to make up for any that hit non-effective targets like Vox cannons.
>>563775765Maybe have the rocket pod eagle have an armament of 8 or 12 rockets, and you can choose whether to use 2, 4 or all of them. But once they are expended either they are gone for good or the eagle has an extended rearm

>>563780968every single armor with servo assisted
>>563780968The heavy Dust Devil set>+20% throwing range which just fucks up your innate sense of distance on the toss>Meaningless +40% protection to all elementsI also like the look of the fat set from Control Group, and that passive is just straight up worse medic and will actually kill you in situations you could have survived, because the passive has a tendency to activate at <10% HP
>>563753068NEVEC never disappointed the Ministry of Expansion!
>>563781390And vs shotgun would be cool
>>563781196I run servo-assisted, so Dust Devils was actually a godsend for MY innate sense of throwing distance when I was sick and fucking tired of getting lit on fire on certain planets and against the Incel Core.

I hate bugs so much. Why the fuck do they just have so much fucking life and there's always way too many. God damn I will kill 50 million bugs but one of them is glitched inside of a tree or something and summons 50 million more.
