Temu Heavy Devastator Edition>Previous>>563704459>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.

>>563807271>AP3 40% durable shield with ultimatum launchercalling it nowmaybe the armors will improve stratagem armor durability to fix the blanket nerf everything got, so the devs can sell you a solution to a problem they created
>>563807461 is a based chad with a big human cock for sexing ayyliens
>>563807271I kind of wonder though, what kind of situation would you need this exosuit for? 90% of bugs don't even have projectile attacks so the only thing you would really be useful for is maybe stopping Chargers in their tracks and saving teammates from Bile Titan attacks. Squids generally aren't even a threat so the shield would have minimal utility on that front. And bots throw shitloads of projectiles at you but unless the shield is specially designed to resist explosive ordnance it's not going to last for long the moment a Rocket Devastator enters your general area.
2nd for mech diver passive having better ergo on vehicles and gutting peak physique having the effect
>>563807948>unless the shield is specially designed to resist explosive ordnanceoh god you're right, they're going to botch the implementation and any explosive that hits it is going to clip through and hit the arm or the leg behind it. they'd have to make every part behind the shield explosive immune if they want this thing to actually work the way people would expect it to
>>563807461Calling it now: The armors will be some kind of bacon apple mixture of traits like extra throwing range + faster primary reload rate.
Should I buy urban legends next? I mean if the April warbond is shit I will, The supply turret booster is cool and the only boosters I got/use are the health and supply ones, anti tank emplacement is great for clankers and the armor is cool with a good passive

>>563808540I'd save up. Technically you could use the bastion as a mobile AT emplacement, it'll just be clunkier and less disposable and you won't be able to turn around 360 degrees
>>5638086412/4

>>563808676I really wonder if the pivoting on the bastion is shit on purpose just so it wouldn't step on the ATE's toesEven though it's already an entirely different (and more useful) nicheThe swiggish mind is an enigma
>>563808906One of those desert planets was genuinely awful. It had those gigantic rock formations and EVERY goddamn hill was on an 85 degree climb, it's insanity.
>all units can clip through the shieldthis is 100% happening
>>563808906It's nice when the horde shorter has hordes.
>>563808676>and you won't be able to turn around 360 degrees
>>563809116I thought i was going crazy with those fucking slopes being everywhere>>563809287The hordes themselves happen to not be the actual problem in this situation lol
>>563808676Bastion is kinda shit due to how little wiggle room the canon has and unresponsive teammates desu, I usually run the emancipator Hopefully the next warbond isn’t vehicle focused since I want some free stuff instead of spending medals

BUFF THIS NIGGER TO DO AIRBURST ROCKET LAUNCHER DAMAGE RIGHT FUCKING NOW>b-butSHUT THE FUCK GLAZER
>faction is feature complete>multiple variants depending on difficulty>dozens of unique attacks and animations>very cool designs>basically ready to ship>restart from scratch>outsource them to literally whos>completely gimp themI've never heard of anything like this happening before thats fucking crazy
>>563811682>AIRBURST ROCKET LAUNCHER DAMAGEEven that shit isn't that great bro, nerftrannies might actually allow this "buff".
>>563811431I do not follow every single argument people make on this site, so no
I might have remembered a way to have fun killing oodles of zombies while also still blowing up warpships.
>>563811729>can 1 tap every medium enemies in the game>can technically 1 shot chargers and hulks if 1 of the bomblets landed on it's ass or ventthe ABRL is actually broken as fuck if you know what you're doing
>>563811682What if, instead of air burst level damage: we instead replace the its cluster explosions with mini strategem beacons that deploy a random red strategem for each one
Is 500kg better than SPEAR when it comes to single target damage?
>>563811812when the fuck do warpships start landing
>>563812046Spear doesn't work half of the time and just randomly hits for 0 damage. 500kg is always better.
>>563812131During repell overship missions
>>563812131the mission that was removed for filtering people during the defense of super earth
>>563812363Was it removed? I don't remember it being removed
>>563812363>make interesting mission types and content>remove them from the game and make everyone play boring shit like eradicate and evacuate missions to complete operationsI love doing the same mission objectives over and over and over and over
>>563812363Wasn't it actively bugged to never stop spawning overseers?I remember being called in once and dying before i could move because of the amount of projectiles flying around, not to mention the framehits
>>563812174>Spear doesn't work half of the time and just randomly hits for 0 damage.proof?
>>563809620My meaning was that when you're in the gunner's seat, you can't turn 360, you have to switch to the driver's seat, which is clunky>>563810005This desu>>563812046Check the wiki, the dmg is listed there
sex with bots
>>563808940Maybe, but I doubt they put that much thought into it>>563809829Eh, it's free though, and the cannon is technically stronger than the mech's AC gunsGuess we'll see
>>563812723I don't know of it's bugged or not to never stop spawning overseers for certain. I ran a few missions of repel invasion on an Agitator planet (no spawn adjustsments) with pubs and it worked fine in the sense that nothing crashed. But the landed ships would only spawn overseers and elevated overseers, and faster than we could kill them, so they would get to critical mass pretty quick.The few times I loaded the mission on a Mindless Masses planet it would just crash as soon as the first warpship landed and opened it's doors. That was with swapping all spawns to voteless, so there might be some fuckery there, have to try vanilla to be sure. But replacing everything with voteless on a normal squid planet seems to work fine. I can even increase the reserve count of the squid warp ships, though 50 does seem like a good number.
>>563812363Overseer spawns were reduced during the invasion and then the mission never showed up in all the megacities that started popping up on other planets, if I remember right.
what if i kill the op? huh what if do that?!
>>563813509we get another one out of cryo
what if i bring the SPEAR on D10? huh what if do that?!
>>563811704I really wonder what the story is. I saw someone else here theorize that they were almost complete for release, and then when they did release the game they moved the people who made them to a different project or fired them, and then no one who was left was competent enough to understand how to complete it. It kinda makes sense when you look at how half-assed most of the post-release content they've made for the game has been, and how much of it they outsourced.
>>563813876I'll pay an etsy witch to curse your crops
>Solo silo>Commando>EATs>Expendable NapalmYeah, I think it's Hell Divin' time.
>>563812430yes, it was stealth removed
Is there any concreate proof of them scrapping the assassin squids or this is just another case of mass hysteria?
>>563813964It could just be their retarded flat management. People wanted to work on the cool cultists, but didn't want to work on the other more boring factions or work on the annoying last 10% of the cultists, so they went on pre-vacation instead.

>>563814098>the helldivers launched at the start of the commando mission are never recovered after the mission is over
Elevator pitching ideas for alternate/additional enemy faction concepts is always a decent little time passer as topic subjects go. You are given the power to expand the enemy faction roster out with an idea of your own imagining, tell us what you'd make.
>>563814182we don't but let's not pretend this could be another>Halo 2>Final Fantasy XV>Anthem>Doom (2016)>Star Wars 1313/Star Wars Battlefront 3>Prey
>>563814257surprisingly no rule 34 exists of that
>>563811729Are you the same retard that thought devastator shields blocked explosions?
>>563814743no I am an aimCHAD who brings lib carbine to bots
>>563814743is that a different guy from the one that thought plasma was a special explosive type that uniquely penetrated devastator shields while other normal explosives didn't?
>>563814329We've already got the holy trifecta of scifi factions. >MeatBugs>MetalBots>MindSquids.
>>563814832I think it was scout strider faceplate armor not dev shields when he was talking about plasma splash
>>563813303I did the Repel Invasion Fleet mission on the Mindless masses planet too, and I also tried swapping enemies. Swapping anything would ALWAYS crash. It's interesting you say the Repel mission on an Appropriator planet only spawned overseers because the Repel mission on Mindless Masses spawned voteless, overseers, crescent overseers, and harvesters. But never fleshmobs or elevated overseers.
>>563811969>it has a 95% chance of dropping a sterilizerWish granted.
tfw don't have the balls to use the portable hellbomb
>>563814329>incel war striders Gets four incel conflagration shotguns, fires incendiary grenades>armored fleshmobs covered in ap3 armor>gun bugsBugs with guns
>Eagle Storm is up>this means Joel is going to deliberately not throw any attacks at us for the next 24 hours
>>563815385Agitator repel invasion fleet didn't spawn only overseers, sorry, I should have clarified. Harvesters, orbtruders, and squid mechs would also spawn from the ships that didn't land and just beam troops down. It's just that the landed ships spawned only overseers and would do so in such quantities (like your webm) that I think spawn caps were reached. Vanilla Mindless Masses not spawning elevated overseers sounds normal to me, but no fleshmobs is weird.
>>563815760>fires incendiary grenadesfire expendable napalm
>>563815828nono, the incel factory strider gets the napalm launcher on top, and chin-mounted flamethrowers
>>563815968What if ine chin gun was a cremator and the other a minigun that was loaded with coyote incendiary rounds?
>>563815385peak rundivers
>>563815747Same, i don't get it how other anons just rush through massive battlefield, stay alive and get 50+ kills with a single hellbomb.If I do that, I get instantly killed or my hellbomb manages to kill 3 chaff enemies.

Knowing them it would be bugged for months, only target the host, and fire immediately with no warning.
>>563816524condoms and C-01 forms for instant sex with leandivers during the mission if needed.
>>563816319First off, it lies about how many kills that it scores. Those 50 kills are more like 20 tops. Secondly you can just spam the fuck out of stims to brute force making it to the target. In a best case scenario it's good to drop it on the ground and survive the attack, but any objective worth blowing up with a hellbomb is worth spending 1 reinforcement on. It's a big waste to use them against regular enemies though. They're better suited for knocking out jammers/detector towers/gunship fabs. They'd be more useful on the other fronts if other faction objectives were as robust as the bot ones.
>>563816636They also work pretty well as a field resetter, letting you stop enemies from overrunning you and snowballing at the cost of one reinforcement.
>>563816621Pro-tip: You don't need the C-01 form for certain leandivers, as a C-01 is only necessary in acts that may create a child.
>>563816852Surely in the year of our lord 2184 and since it is confirmed that super earth dabbles in gene modification, they made male pregnancy real by then?
>>563816981Ofcourse, why do you think everyone is so brown?
>>563817038>nigger-on-nigger sexDO SUPER EARTH CITIZENS REALLY?
>>563814329>Jet StriderDue to the space requirement of the jetpack, it loses the ability to fire grenades and its main guns are replaced with miniguns you'd see on the VE or FS. Unlike other jet brigade units, this one can hover in the air and do strafing runs.If its main guns are destroyed, it will actively try to squash helldivers via death from above landing.>Flame tankReplaces the shredder tank. Basically like the flame tank from C&C Tib Dawn.>Stalker WaspMedium sized flying unit. Will pick up helldivers and drop them from high altitudes in place of the ragdoll attack that stalkers normally use.
>>563816847I'm not a fan of using it like that. I feel like teams that shit the bed and let things start snowballing never learn their lessons and routinely fuck things up. Your efforts to stop the snowball with a hellbomb are going to place you offbalance by at best wasting some stims as you extend into the heart of the enemy formation to plant the bomb, or at worst result in your death. Now you need to retrieve your support weapons. You're at the whim of your teammates calling you in quick enough to retrieve your gear before the enemy regroups, which is a big ask if they've been letting things get out of control in the first place.
As a contrarian, I think the enemy variety is quite fine as it is - they should focus on making more if not all weapons D10 viable since we have so many weapons and stratagems just collecting dust.
>>563815771That's okay, because nobody plays on Eagle Storm days anyway.
>squid defense>everyone lined up on the stairs blowing shit up, except for green who is hiding on the other side of the boxes next to the stairs>my mini turret spins from 12 oclock to 4 oclock after every zombie to fire a single bullet directly at his head (thankfully the box is in the way)>it does this several times
>>563817350>Eagle Storm daysIs that when all Eagles have a synchronised menstruation?
>>563817604remember - malicious coding is all in your le head :)
>>563815747You should it's fun https://files.catbox.moe/tx0rem.mp4
>>563817604For some weird ass reason sentries always do that on defense. No idea why. But yeah they 100% coded sentries to randomly kill you when theres stuff happening. I know this because I've never been set on fire by the flame sentry by it randomly flicking targets.
>>563817604I still maintain that 95% of the time sentries placed within 40m of a teammate are poorly placed. The remaining 5% is when it's placed with exceptional care so that its line of fire cannot strike a helldiver.
>>563817860>turdhead changes the hellbomb beeping to some chick just fucking scream bomb get the fuck out>knuckleheads getting tk'd by hellbomb drops by 99%
>>563818120It really does help yeah
The damage to Sweden's PR dealt by a game development company's irredeemable stupidity is staggering
>>563817604forget defense missions, every MG/minigun turrets will turn to look at you after letting off a burst if you're not careful, and will always prioritize enemies that has you between its firing line.always operate under this mindset and suffering will noticibly decline.
Whats a fun all around main weapon?Im having a blast with double edged scythe, but something that doesnt try to kill me would be a nice option
>>563818120that or the megunim mod is the usual from what I seejust about anything that boosts the hellbomb sound is extremely convenient particularly with bots and explosions happening constantly
>>563818487Eruptor but I'm an explosionaholic
>>563818487M90A/Defender smg but I like shit guns
>>563818487punisher plasma
>>563818487entirely depends on what you expect out of your primary weaponby 'all around' I'd assume you'd want weapon that can handle both chaff and medium~heavies in a pinch with acceptable ergonomics; in which case your options are the medpen ARs realistically.other alternative medpen weapons also exist but they generally tilt more towards 'anti-medium' rather than 'anti chaff', along with generally worse ergo/ammo/etc that gives them such properties, so there's that factor to consider.
>>563818487R-72 censordiligence if it was a zero recoil laser
>>563818678I bought the cutting edge bond last week expecting fun weapons, but both punisher plasma and the arc shotgun feel weak as fuck
>>563818487talon
>>563818819blitzer is shit but the PP is good now, 250 ap3 explosive damage with good radius and high stagger cannot possibly be bad.
>>563811812>tfw missed cool shit like this because the game was unplayable for me (would straight softlock and black screen my pc on map load) for a full year
>>563818487works on every faction and requires no skill, just point at the center mass of an enemy and shoot.drum mags + siege ready and you will never run out of ammo too.
>>563818819I dunno man. The blitzer definitely sucks but the PP is a good weapon. Weakest on the bugs because everything that's not a scavenger or hunter takes more than one shot and you can't leverage the aoe much. It does very well on bots and squids though, especially since it's an explosive weapon and ignores heavy dev shields/oversaar armor and shields.
>leviathansreeeeeee
>>563818487Bots/Borgs:EruptorIlluminate:Scorcher/Purifier Bugs:Coyote All of these weapons can be used against the other factions listed, and well at that, but this helps me keep some flavor to my gameplay. You can try running AP2 or some of the other gimmick weapons, however they are not only inferior, but also less fun.
What happens here?
So what happens to helldivers that fail to extract and get left behind? Do they get killed on the spot like traitors or are they just left to fend for themselves until eventually they die? I wonder how long you could feasibly survive after extraction, especially if you have survival knowledge.
>>563814329>Space pirates.Literally extract them right out of how they are from Metroid at the concept art level up. >Dissident rebellion, >Generic goodguy space nation.>Equally gonzo fascist empire like super earth.>Actual super earth splinter civilization that was lost and now found. Two Super earth can't co-exist and must fight.All these slot into the same broad pallet of playing against an army of other generic space army guys WHICH IS NOT THE SAME AS THE TERMINATOR VIBE BOTS HAVE GOING ON. >Eldritch incursion.Thoroughly showcased by Warhammer's chaos, lots of lovecraft sprinkled in. >Primitives.Tribal warrors with scavenged laser guns. The lizardmen riding dinosaursfold into this. Others have detailed it already and these threads are the same 40 or so people repeating the same opinions anyway so you already know what this entails.>Dogmatic alien empireCovenant. It's just the Halo Covenant. Fanatical adherants to an alien religion in an empire of oriental despotism. Arguably overlaps a lot with the "Equally gonzo fascist empire" category from earlier but the alien-ness keeps doors open for it being aesthetically different.>>563814868There is no such thing as a holy trifecta of sci-fi.

>>563817604I'm pretty sure they lock to targets while firing and when they run out of targets they'll just lock to anything within range. I've been lying near the flame sentry and it pointed down at me when it did its random turning and turned vaguely in my direction.

Amazing
>>563818939The libtard variants are always outclassed by later, better options for all-rounder weapons.
I remember back on release the game would shit out a constant stream of berserkers. Now I don't see them anywhere. Makes me very sad.
>>563819686should've replaced them with interlopers
>>563820038it took me longer than I care to admit before I realized these are just devastators with no 'skin'

I would rather fight 10 million bots and squids before 1 bug. Bugs are complete fucking cancer.
Ultimatum-chan. But I disagree with the artists design. Ultimatum is small, yes, so she is correctly short, but the Ultimatum is also powerful and makes a big boom (and also cannot be launched far), so therefore she should be stacked, too. A shortstack, if you will.
>>563821647I agree, ultimatum girl should be very short but packing ass
"What kind of bug is this"
>>563818962Popping the flying overseers with two plasma shots from the punisher makes me cum. Reminds me of the good ol days of tf2 blue balls.
>>563821897"This is a bile spewer, it spews bile"
>>563814098Swap NEAT for Leveller and im game>>563816260You can joke about it, but back then even a full team of good divers could not outkill the spawns on this mission, it was genuinely fucked
>>563821897You reminded me I wanted to mention the humble Bile Spitter when the thread was discussing 1v1ing a scavenger.Anons often mentioned stomping scavengers, but you cannot stomp a bile spitter, even though they are even weaker and more fragile. Because if you did your body would be splattered with acid and melted like that nazi from Indiana Jones. Your only option would be to shoot it or kill it with a very long stick or something so you can avoid it's lethal acid burst upon death.
>>563816420Yes, because ARs are the most boring weapons in videogames.

>>563822756Bugs would be more fun if you never had to fight them on maps where there's constant cover everywhere and they didn't decide to get stuck inside of the map while calling in more reinforcements.

A full salvo of 15 of them should completely level an area but they are essentially just a slightly bigger precision strike because nordcels can't into military

>>563837598You mean you want taking fortified positions in the city to actually mean something other than an arbitrary liberation bonus? Sorry chud. Thats space magic and not in like with our satirical grunt fantasy.
>>563838004Ideally they should be exploding before impact and have a way bigger impact area. The fact that we had this technology in the 1940s but future earth is just letting them slam into the ground is retarded. But that's nordcels for you
>>563837420it's never stated what type of ammo it is or how much explosive filler the round has though, or if it's just straight up solid AP
>>563838132Seriously though wouldn't a flat 0.5% or 1% SEAF bonus on that planet (like SEAF is set up and deploying from the city) per city make way more sense?That seems like the most straightforward easy change

I like fighting squids. those fucking appropriators kind of fuck though. the big mech dudes are a pain to kill in time. anti tank feels overkill but med pen feels a little slow. Heavy pen would be nice but theres no solid heavy pen rapid fire. I'd say Eruptor, technically, but that's too slow and explosive does fuck all.

>Bugchaser so mindbroken he's trying to false flag now
Listen. You need to stop having a meltie in my general. You will not bug dive. You will not talk about bug diving. You will post the way I like how I like or you will get the green text.

>>563840350Stop same fagging! There's no way more than one person is arguing with me! I said no bug diving!
>>563840350It's hardly an argument. I told them good luck with having the attention span to capture several planets in that specific order when theyre wasting time on Phact Bay and the bugchaser lost his fucking mind for some reason.

Units are split into stationary ones that straight-up sprout out of the ground, and mobile elite units that are closer to discarded vehicles and corpses puppeted by vines and roots.
>>563840631Charging heavy enemies in this game in general are really fucking annoying.
christ, you guys werent kidding. The M90A really fucking sucks7 shots to kill an overseer
Game is getting very boring. We're playing a sandbox action shooter filled with over a hundred forms of weapons and yet the variety between them is fucking abysmal.

>ragebait bot troons>boot up the game and play with my lads>go back to thread>bot troons still seethingtop lel
>>563841521I mean, outside of a few cases that were most likely outsourced, they've been pretty creatively bankrupt. Like, I wouldn't even mind the "1000 assault rifles" design philosophy if they at least did something other than "increase two stats, decrease two stats, arbitrarily remove customization on half the gun" for almost everything.
>>563841057>demand that every weapon performs the same at every task>gameplay variety fucking dieswow no one could have predicted this
>>563841875No, what people ask is for the current roster of weapons to be functional and not dogshit. That's a far cry from the actual complaint of "sentry but X" or " guard dog but X" is a very boring way to keep updating the game.The most obnoxious argument to have is with midwits who seriously believe every possible red stratagem has been exhausted, and there's no possible way Arrowhead could create something new and unique. You know, something like a Pelican 2 providing fire support like an aerial sentry that can move around a little, but it being airborne means it gets focused way harder than a sentry and can kill Helldivers when it crash lands.
>doing take down overship mission>fire the big gun >hardcut to black screen then back on the destroyerwhat the fuck
>>563842162>The most obnoxious argument to have is with midwits who seriously believe every possible red stratagem has been exhausted, and there's no possible way Arrowhead could create something new and unique.This, especially if you bring up a list of every possible one they could make and they go "Durrrrr but how that different from OTHER stratagem? Huh?"And then they immediately go creaming themselves over medium pen assault rifle #7.

>>563844103realism, shut up chud
>>563842162I reckon the reason we aren't getting wildly new stratagems is because Arrowhead is refusing/not willing to hire new VO for the divers and the Super Destroyer comms.
>>563844103I would say it's because "bringer of balance" :^)
Armor that gives you a 5th strat slot plz
>>563841398This would be an example of a situation where "crowd control" effects could be useful if you freeze them all in their tracks with a cheap stun. TOO BAD THEY IGNORE YOUR STUNS BORK BORK BORK.
>>563844759>super destroyer gets a super sample redeem>its just a 5th strat
>>563844891Literally all they need to do is let us shoot off their legs. its the only non elite enemy we can't
>>563844103The voices in the walls told me that once upon a time the memepoch's AOE radius matched it's visual effect. Then, during an internal test, someone decided to be creative and destroyed a Hulk's heatsink by shooting a wall behind the hulk which splashed lethal damage onto the sink. Alexus heard about this and had an "Oh my science!" moment and then nerfed the radius since he didn't intend for players to use the explosive weapon as anything other than a direct fire AT shell like EAT/RR.
>>563844759Devs are too stupid to balance this out with a negative passive. Really big meaty passives should give you some shit like -25/-50 armor to compensate for the buff they give.

>>563838257It would be nice, but it would take too much effort on the part of AH. They already sorta-kinda do it manually for MOs, where taking the first city will lower the decay rate slightly and make it easier to take the rest of the planet, but it's a few and far in-between "feature" that they rarely do.Also, how would it work for Megacity planets that already have low decay rates? Going from 1% to 0.5% isn't exactly a huge change.

For an MO that requires us to win defenses, there is a distinct lack of defenses. Maybe the DSS blockade is actually doing something.

>>563861910what are your other 3 state-mandated stratagems for this godly loadout?
>>563860775Joel's just being an asshole and waiting for the DSS to make a jump with less than 8 hours left on Eagle Storm. Then he'll throw out at least one unreasonable attack, the DSS spends the next 3 or so hours over its current planet before the next jump cycle puts that planet on the list, and then another 4 hours to complete that voting cycle, so that by the time the DSS arrives at the defending planet Eagle Storm is offline.
>>563864348I often wonder what they point of the strategic level effects of eagle storm and the other skills are even for of Joel is going to be a malicious izzat faggot who explicitly goes out of his way to fundamentally undermine them?
>>563864348Nah, he'll shit out two defenses originating from hydrobius so he can pretend the orbital blockade worked for the first time in two years and people can finally do a gambit.

>>563866795>Its weird for the starter gun to require advanced game knowledge to be effectiveNot that weird honestly, it makes sense for the most basic weapon to be the best when used properly.
>>563867007>Orbital Precision is too goodI would agree with you, but its cooldown is way too long and that's why it goes under the Eagle 500kg.
>have to saw the body because the factory strider will kill you by moving its head slightly
>hulk's stomp attack has a backwards elbow afterwardskek
what baby difficulty missions are you guys playing at where killing a factory strider is its own objective
>>563867625>he isn't on developer difficultiesYou are playing the game wrong
>>563867625people play missions like those to test out dogshit weapons and see what you can do without having to deal with a bunch of chaff and 3 other factory striders
>>563867625D6 and below have meme objectives. Unfortunately it doesn't replace the factory striders with vox like it does the convoys.
>>563864530The best part is that in the early days of the DSS being deployed, Joel would break the existing rules by attacking one planet from two directions, so even if Orbital Blockade could stop in-progress attacks (it can't), attacks coming from two different planets would negate it.It's hilarious that a GM can be so petty when they already control all the rules of the game, and has no restrictions on when and where and how many and how strong enemy attacks and defenses are.

>>563868502Railroad DMs are a pretty stereotypical scourge on RPGs. People who think that being DM means they get to tell THEIR story and all the players are just witnesses to their glorious writing that need to be dragged around by the nose to properly experience it.

Whens the next warbond?
Vehicles need a rework they all feel terrible. Should be like Halo CE where they kill anything instantly as long as they're in motion. If you try walking over a voteless in the mech you desync in place for a second before the game remembers you should be able to walk over them. And the voteless will survive.

>>563841007you're using a pellet gun on ablative armor
>>563878917siege ready does not increase the resupply efficiency of weapons. If you're using, say, the adjudicator which starts with 8 mags, gets +2 from siege ready, and has a 50% resupply efficiency from ammo tins you will not pick up 5 mags from an ammo tin.you picked up from the resupply call in which with superior packing methodology always refills 100% of ammo
>>563841007>7 M90A shots to kill an overseerare you shooting it from 60 fucking meters or something or just winging every arm and leg separately?
>>563879118>>563879305HMG default spare mags is 2. Siege ready makes it 3. Now I can't prove it, but I believe 3 is more than 2.
Give me the quick rundown on helldivers 2 balance right now? I hear its a mess but why? What makes it a mess? I have not played this game but was curious about it. From what I gather, the devs made some "less fun" choices and sort of willed that certain guns be meta and only those guns? How accurate is that?
>>563879704we're not talking about total ammo, we're talking about resupply>>563859454>Siege ready to increase the resupply for HMG by +50%>resupply
>>563879851>I hear its a mess but why? What makes it a mess?90% of what you hear is from hyperbolic whinging shitters stuck 16 months in the pastalmost every gun/stratagem is usable with only a tiny handful of duds
>>563879874Yeah, you pick up 3 instead of 2. 3 is 50% more than 2.
>>563879704o prove that 2<3, we need to rely on how numbers are defined and how the “less than” relation is constructed in a rigorous system like the natural numbers.Step 1: Build the natural numbersOne standard way is via the Peano axioms:There is a first natural number, 0.Every number n has a successor, denoted S(n).Numbers are built by repeatedly applying the successor function.So:1=S(0)2=S(1)=S(S(0))3=S(2)=S(S(S(0)))Step 2: Define “less than”We define a<b to mean:There exists a nonzero natural number k such thata+k=b.So “less than” is defined in terms of addition.Step 3: Use the definitionWe want to show 2<3.Using the definition, we need to find a natural number k=0 such that:2+k=3.Take k=1. Then:2+1=3.Since 1=0, this satisfies the definition. Therefore:2<3.Step 4: Why this works (intuition)The successor structure guarantees:3 is literally defined as the next number after 2.So there is exactly one “step” from 2 to 3, which is adding 1.Thus, 3 is strictly greater than 2, and therefore 2<3.
>>563880167Grok is this real
>>563880167hey just wanted you to know I didn't laugh
>>563880232nah this is cap, some woke bullshit that tries to tell you that your opinion is not real. But did you know that there is a white genocide going on in South-Africa for real?
>>563879851Old weapons are being left behind with power creep.The higher difficulties are also pretty much gated around players taking at least one or two heavy AT options or suffering so everyone takes the same fucking thermite/giganade and/or ultimatum combination to deal with them.Add to all of that the fact that devs are literally shitting on any weapons that try to use status effects and you have a game where the only valuable metrics are armor penetration and time to kill.
>>563879851I dunno about that, but the devs routinely make shadow changes and lie about doing them. >coyote is an assault rifle that also lights enemies on fire. >is strong but not overpowered (despite what people might have thought).>players from experience know that this things is getting nerfed.>update comes and the devs smugly announce that they did not nerf it. >dataminers datamine. >as it turns out, basically every enemy of importance had their set-on-fire resistance increased by exactly 0.1 points. >this change by this small of an amount only really affects one weapon in particular (the coyote). >devs later admitted that they did in fact nerf the coyote despite saying they did not. Repeat this every update with varying degrees of severness, and you can see why a lot of people hate the swiggers.
>>563880440>The higher difficulties are also pretty much gated around players taking at least one or two heavy AT optionsit's a problem that high difficulties require you to tailor your loadout to the difficulty?
>>563880815Why did they lie about doing that? Seems pointless to lie about.
>>563855559If you go solo that number goes up to 1000-1500.
>it's a problem that high difficulties require you to tailor your loadout to the difficulty?Yeah. I want to bring my larp gear and walking simulator my way through the game on Super Helldive, broooo. *rips bong*
>>563881406because the community has a history of throwing an absolute shitfit whenever overperforming weapons get deserved nerfs

has anyone tried throwing a strat ball into the vox engine's exposed core after destroying 3 vents instead of a grenade
>>563881589stratagem balls do not produce an explosion so it would have no effect
>>563832583Me t
>>563881654>stratagem balls do not produce an explosionneither do snowballs
>>563881654There are multiple grenades that deal no explosive damage but are still able to kill vox engines by throwing them into the hatch.
>>563879851Balance is fine for the most part. As another anon said, the problem is that there's so many weapons that stuff gets left behind in balance passes, and there's no telling when (or if) they'll get addressed. They will every now and then show good faith in addressing these balance issues, but whether they do so competently is another question entirely.
>>563882114because you don't need explosive DAMAGE, you just need it to produce an explosion effect. smoke grenades don't do any damage but they are still coded to produce an explosion, which because vox vents have a 0 demo force threshold still kill the vox.
>>563877363only ever on bugs, and it's more like two 500kg bombs split into four uses, but only good vs single target
>>563838836Trident is also the best for popping Harvester and Dropship shields. It just deletes them in a few shots without having to waste a magazine(s) like for other weapons.
>>563832583
>>563881116AT should be required to kill things without thinkingIf heavy enemies were designed with more care, an alternate way to kill them with less powerful weapons but through a more lengthy process would be nice.Example: Vox Engines - You only need to blow up their vents and throw a grenade into their engine. The idea is very good, the execution leaves something to be desired, what with them shooting through themselves to kill you if you're under them, the turret on top twisting and rotating to block its own vent; things like that.
>>563881406because they're the worst kind of smug nord
>>563881732>precision>>563881654>>563882324i'm not suggesting that the strat ball would blow up the engine like a grenade, i'm just asking if anyone's done it for fun, like to see if it makes their red strat not miss when the vox decides to shift into maximum overdrive
>>563881732Sorry sir, doing my best
>>563883659>like to see if it makes their red strat not miss when the voxred strats only target the original position of the ball so no.blue strats might kill the vox? since the hellpod impact does produce an explosion

>>563864348HAHA, I FUCKING CALLED IT. NO EAGLE STORM FOR DEFENSE WITHOUT JOEL'S EXPLICIT PERMISSION.
>>563879851Heres my anecdotal bullshit with some 1000 hours since launch. The balance is close to perfect. I define perfect for a coop pve game being "you can bring anything with accompanying choices and it'll work". The only things I would say are not balanced are such extreme rare cases like the Sterilizer, stim pistol or bolt rifle that its irrelevant. /hdg/ has a bad case of confusing balance with tier lists.

>>563893625>SquidsBring expenable napalm and shoot the underside of the UFOs whenever he triggers reinforcements. HMG emplacement+AT emplacement for mechasquids (HMG is better vs mechasquids, but AT gives you something when HMG is on cooldown)>bugsorbital napalm barrage (won't be available every time)>botsbring a supply pack and arc grenades. Toss one grenade at every group of infantry that gets dropped down. Use a mix of strafing run and your favored non-RR AT weapons of choice for the tanks/war striders/etc.
>>563893994bugs are much harder solo in my opinion
>>563874198>HE SMELLS LIKE HE HASN"T TAKEN A SHOWER IN DAYSPeople who cannot shower despite having easy access to it should be removed from society. Autism is not an excuse for everything. I am autistic and I take hygiene very seriously.
>>563893884Easiest faction to disengage from.
>>563893884Vanilla bots are the easiest faction since they can't aim and are too slow to pressure you.
>>563893058I would have made a scene by saying fuck no he stinks, but you're a better man than me.
>>563893625>>the game becomes infinitely less funNigger, seriously, I want to delete this boring shit because I'm annoyed by the small number of enemies.>>triggers every enemy callAnd what he's wrong about.
>>563893884There's overlap between becoming a solo player for more skill expression, and the bot front demanding skill expression with weakpoint clicking, good positioning, and tactically approaching objectives.Bugs mostly boil down to a dps race that becomes really punishing in solo, and squids have been kind of a snoozefest until very recently.

>>563830171The throwing knife should've replaced your weapon butt with a knife swipe that dealt more damage. Would at least give it something a bit more worthwhile but it'll still stay a meme pick.
Almost every single cheater I've met has been on the bug front for some reason. This last guy had:>More than 4 stratagems>gatling barrage x10 that would tank frame rate and sound>super laser that did way more damage>infinite ammo, health, stamina>Instant full charge rapid fire Purifier>This weird prone glide thing>free super creds(kinda based)At that point though why even play the game

I've noticed in the last few months that using the ATE will spawn a patrol right behind you though, so it's difficult to use for more than a couple of volleys before you get ganked unless you have someone watching your back

>>563825446bollywood-like clip
I genuinely don't understand how anyone has issues with the game's difficultyI routinely do d10 missions with a 3 man squad of just me, a 35 year old retard who never goes beyond medium difficulty in any other game, a 32 year old stoner who is high to the point of being nonverbal most dives, and a 42 year old who insists on trying to make melee work and we beat 95% of missions

Why are you poor /hdg/?
>>563906537because of jews
>>563905347sometimes the jank goes in our favor
>>563905641The ranged mech is actually insane sometimes, tankier than melee mech with less weakness for some reason, can instakill with a charged sniper shot from extremely long range, and if you're caught out in the open when it starts auto fire you're getting melted.
>>563906537That screen looks like shit ngl
>>563825446mein pov
>>563906537Post hand
>>563906861For some reason, the ranged mech is heavy armor when everything else in the squid line up caps out at medium armor. The best place to shoot it is the pilot or the rear weakspot, which is unarmored. The squishy bits of the joints are medium armor but hard to hit.
Since we keep fighting mindless masses or appropriators, I haven't seen a stingray in months.

>>563907845They were your friends
>>563906861>>563907120I like that it's a bit tankier than the other mech, actually makes it feel more like an elite unit since it spawns less frequently than its melee counter part. At least it can still be killed with the same method by shooting the cockpit or disarming it.

When was the last time we had a fun, memorable MO? Super Earth invasion? Cyberstan was so blatantly railroaded it soured the whole thing and people already forgot about it. We haven't unlocked a new stratagem through a MO in over a year. All we get abysmal GMing and you can really tell Joel or Udit or whoever is in charge is an insufferable redditor faggot you'd never want to play a tabletop game with.

>>563919019He's correct, balance is a myth the more complex and the more variables the game enters.
>>563918921My inner armchair psychologist tells me he posted an image of a simple country farmer much like the hero of the spaceman saga Star Wars to make it clear that our lover of fake information is well aware of their status as just another being required to consume that which grows out of the soilage of the world, as you or I would require, but that in our collective quest for distraction, we partake of the same enjoyment. That being stories of fantasy.
>>563919391Balance is easy if you actually know what youre doing.
>>563918826was its shield up, or bugged and up but didn't look like it? I cannot imagine for 1 second it taking 7 shots at that range to kill an overseer unless there was either fuckery going on or sorry to say you just missed your shots and it's as skill issue. it's 4, 5 shots even as far as 20 meters
>>563919480balance does not mean "every weapon is capable of dealing with all situations well with no weaknesses", anon
>>563919162Players foolishly expect the weapons in their video game to be fun to use instead of appreciating AH's grunt fantasy of dogshit military procurement
leviathans are the shittiest enemy in the entire game, nothing else even comes close to being as annoying and pointless and contrary to the design philosophy of the faction they're in. Not even war striders are this bad.
>>563919607Youre an example of someone that doesnt know what theyre doing. Thank you for providing the example.
>>563919070A reminder pilesofshit said the galactic war will become "more sophisticated" over time.
>>563919632They were even worse at release. They would instakill you from across the map with no telegraphing whatsoever. The fact that they greenlit that garbage design and even introduced them on regular maps at some point made me believe the malicious devs allegations.
>>563919846I'm well aware, I was there for it. They're not much better now. It's just a big flying stage hazard that destroys vehicles and sentries/weapon emplacements that no one can kill because no one brings AT to squids.
>>563919846>They would instakill you from across the map with no telegraphing whatsoeverAnd then they had the brilliant idea of giving it a bigger radius but smaller direct damage and thought that was a fix. But in practice it just ended up ragdolling you 7 times in a row until the RNG code decided to finally kill you. Oh, and they used to spawn in the open field colony maps so you have zero cover if your objective had to take you out in the open.
>>563919846>with no telegraphing whatsoever.other than the spotlights telling you you were being targeted
>>563919787Ples also called himself and the rest of his employees "imbeciles" that couldn't even listen to basic instruction from the senior devs back in their Magicka days. They are fucking retards
>>563919949they didn't have those when they were released and they don't help much now
>>563919787>bugs and squid MOs are braindead easy>Bot MO are railroaded as fuck with the odds stacked against the already small botfront
>>563919949>t. didn't play when they were added
Y'all should be grateful that the swedes made such a kinoge like no other. There's truly nothing else like it out there hence why we're all here
>>563919513unless it was some fucky netcode/host issues going on, nothis was consistent throughout the entire mission. Usually took the entire magazine full of clean shots, often more than the magazine. Very close to the target (duh it's a shotgun). I could see the pellets hit the enemy.
>>563919949>he doesn't know
>>563920109Do you spit or swallow?
>>563919949They didn't have those at release, they'd just randomly instagib players from 5 blocks away (and would also ragdoll you if they missed). I think it took them 3 or 4 months to add the spotlights.
>>563920007looking at super earth invsion footage and damn you're actually right they didn'tI'm retarded, carry on
>>563919513>shield up, or bugged and up but didn't look like it?it was probably this
>>563920109I'm cursed to play swedeslop. The division, vermintide/darktide, helldivers, valheim. Why did God make the swedes able to make games with good core gameplay and then a bunch of bullshit surrounding it to make the experience pain? Why?
>>563920159how is that even playable
>>563920202>vermintide/darktideThese are good games. Would be better if they updated more than 2 times a year.
>>563919910>no one brings AT to squidseagle strafing run can kill them shockingly quick, and that's usually a mainstay of ppl's loadouts
>>563919632My favourite episode is when you're trying not to fall asleep during squid bricks and then all of a sudden you fail the mission because the leviathan decided to beam the generators
>>563920159what heavy armor was that? just curious
>>563920253I know, that's what I mean. Great core gameplay, but everything about them is just pain. Both of them took years to become actually decently playable. Darktide was fucking awful for like two years and I stayed with it for some fucking reason.
Initiating FTL Jump to: The Cum Zone.
>>563920359leviathans are coded not to target the generators
>>563920246You just bled the deaths. The squids were still a joke faction, and the leviathan problem wasn't an issue on the only 'hard' mission ('repel invasion') because it only became a probably after 20+ mins of leviathans stacking up in the skies.
>>563919480I'm not a nerfdiver but keeping balance rn while they implement new content with new weapons on a schedule, nothing will ever be balanced. I really want them to go back to stuff like the spray and pray, jar-dom but they wont cus swedes.
>>563920359That shit was fucking awful.
>>563920371Cinderblock I think
>>563920403>trusting their codingI wish I saved the clip just to show you because it certain wasn't fucking voteless that beamed the generator
>>563920403a lot of things are coded to do or not do certain things, but they happen anywaydid you know vox engines aren't supposed to be able to shoot at you while you're below them with their main guns, but they do anyway?
>>563920436Repel was only "hard" because the game shat out elevated overseers like it had diarrhea.
its actually insane how hard they dropped the ball on squids. Bots and bugs are fun but squids feel like a fucking chore.
>>563920523>stand against the generator or deploy sentries near >cry when they get clipped by the leviathanare you also the kind of nigga to cry when hive lord targets the truck while you're sitting in it?>>563920530false equivalenceleviathans literally don't have generators listed as potential targets
>>563920629Cultist were full built and gave a interesting niche aka space magic wizards instead, AH decided to go full zombie slop
>>563920629it's because they outsourced half the faction and they're too incompetent to properly balance enemiesI'm pretty sure leviathans are an arrowhead original too
>>563920647Nobody was near the generators or throwing emplacements at them the mission was boring enough without needing to sit way in the back. We were all up front
>>563920647dude... leviathans would constantly blow up generators when they were released. People complained about it a lot. It was probably the biggest complaint everyone had with them, even glazers couldn't ignore it.
>>563920647>are you also the kind of nigga to cry when hive lord targets the truck while you're sitting in it?retard https://files.catbox.moe/stltv6.mp4
>>563920793correct, and as a response to that 1.003.003 patch made it so they wouldn't target them at all>>563920783what's more likely one of your teammates put something that the leviathan could target with the generators as backgroundI've played enough of these shitass missions to know that leviathans won't target them on their own
>>563920629Appropriators are fun though.The biggest problems with squids is that the regular enemies you meet are completely harmless while harvesters, stingrays, leviathans and fleshmobs just disregard good game design to kill you in retarded ways.
>>563920924>Appropriators are fun though.>Charge slop
>>563920914The only thing I can think of are the default hmg emplacements that the map starts with
>>563918434>>563918827Bought urban legends and hope I can find enough super shekels on squid planets
>>563921003they should spawn more gatekeepers and less veracitors. I like how many overseers there are, feels just about right. Gatekeepers are actually dangerous, veracitors should be less common so you still have the melee pressure enemies but so that they're not the majority
>>563920924Obtruders are one of the worst enemies in the game

>>563921313There's no gun in the game that stops them from occasionally turning into flubber and bouncing in your face. It doesn't happen often but when it does it sucks
>>563921331If I like it I use it but I always just wear heavy fortified or b-01 tactical at this point lol
>>563920159>Leviathan takes damage from a helldiver it was not targeting>Reaches out in the Illuminate psy-consciousness network to determine where to reprioritize it's attacks>Detects a reloading diver through the vision of a voteless>First shot from a second Leviathan off-screen misses>Kills the threat with a second shot from the initially damaged Leviathan because the threat chose to reload in place instead of repositioningI would have been mad too.
>>563921378nah man, roadblock is in the warbond, chink medium armor is the superstore one
>>563921474They don't bounce in your face if you shoot them from further than 5 meters away.How about you drop that medium pen shotgun and use a real man's light pen assault rifle?
>>563921429>WOOOOOW, OKAY DUDE.>AH-AH-AH-AH, WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO HERE? THE DOOR WON'T OPEN!
What a shitshow
>>563921654Roadblock is temu garbage compared to Cinderblock.
>>563921756I disagree. Cinderblock lacks yellow, roadblock has the classic helldivers color coding.

>>563921665I can't believe DSP is still doing his thing after all these years. I hope he lives forever.
>>563921756Cinderblock is made of automatons thus YOU are an automaton when you wear itClangger
>>563921810Roadblock is grey instead of black though, doesn't fit the color coding at all.
