Sweet Summer Edition>Previous>>565070554>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.

Trident got stealth nerfed on top of all the other bullshit in this patch. It overheats SO fucking fast now. Can these devs leave anything alone?
>>565096973>>565097026buy an ad nigger stop spamming
>>565097097>nowIs this the first time you use the trident?
>>565097097actual proof? I'd believe it 100% but I just need a clip or something
>>565097097Tridents always been kinda ass on hot worlds and just alright on normal worlds.
Dude this bug speed is aids even on baby difficulty.
Enemy swapper seems to work though I haven't tested it on all enemies yet. But there's hope that funny lobbies will continue. Planet swapper doesn't work so we are now at the mercy of the Swedes as to what biomes we can play on.Planet modifiers are also not working (RIP Enemy Force Increase we hardly knew if ye did anything anyways).Activate Terminid Control System mission is missing it's megastructure objective. I can load the mission but the map is empty. RIP TCS tower, that last lobby where we played on it yesterday must have been one of the last.

>>565097217Adapt or become ded
Clearly, the expendable MG is light pen because you can potentially kill up to 600 enemies with it! That's 300 times the killing power of the EAT!

>le light pen is bad aimlet
Storms fine, defending a position, call one down, already have one in the hand, that's 900 rounds of fun right there. Also the Breakthough is infinitely more fun than that Lumberfoot, you run of of ammunition you can just bash things
They still haven't fixed exosuit aiming and it's been pissing me off ever since the initial change to keep you from blowing yourself up when turning and firing. Aiming properly with the patriot rockets or Emancipator (just try accurately firing at a distsnt spore sewer if it's semi obscured by a mountain between you and it, or any target behind and slightly obscured by a building or a heavy body for a demo) a nightmare and it used to be soo good. Sadly the lumberer is also affected by this though I'm not sure why I thought they would ever fix it.
>>565097536Never, they give so little of a shit at this point that they don't even know how little of a shit they give. The one guy from AH did an AMA on Reddit the other day where he literally told them they aren't planning on doing fuck all kek

The Raped
>>565098836>braindead weapon made ever so slightly less braindeadoh noanyway
>>565098443A support weapon needs to have at least medium pen.
Cant play yet, but what's the beef people seem to have with the rocket pistol? By the stats, 1k ballistic damage, 300 explosive damage, Anti Tank 2, it looks like you get half an EAT times four as a pistol shot but also target seeking.Also, is the Bullet storm any good? Based on the wiki numbers, it is the stalwart with 30% more DPS and no reloads, so somewhere between okay and dogshit. is it true that you get 2 in a drop like an EAT?
>>565098914Back to discord, nerftranny
>>565098836its because that one e-celeb with the glasses said its the best primary in the game
>>565099026>peepee poopoolmao!

>>565098996>what's the beef people seem to have with the rocket pistol?it's not a lock on ultimatum so they think it's shit
>>565098836>about 33 shots in 18 secondsIs that actually way worse cause I feel like that's normal, but I haven't used the gun in about week
>>565098836Seems normal to me.
>>565098996>what's the beef people seem to have with the rocket pistol?it medpen>is the Bullet storm any good? its light pen
>>565098996because you need to empty all of your ammo reserves for it to kill a heavy.Ultimatum is just 1 click...Bulletstorm good for static gameplay where you defend a point for a bit longer than usual.
>>565098907TheRaped is back on the menu, boys!
>>565098914>>565099065If the nerf is a nothing burger nerf then why do it in the first place and not put it in the patch notes? Why are the devs such spineless cowards?
>>565097536the 60 day patch was never that good to begin with, more a first step. Expectations were zero and they threw us a crumb, everyone was hyped that they'd build on it but that never happened.
>>565099165Retard.
>>565099075Poorfag with the SerieS. Plus I had to compress the video to appease Gook
The Patriot Exosuit does not feel very good to use in the current meta. The Rockets are extremely inefficient against all targets, even if their on-paper DPS and per-rocket damage is fine; the total damage is very, very low, especially relative to the poor ease-of-use due to the poor projectile velocity.
>>565096904new warbond is fucking awesome, but what the fuck is up with the gallant and shooting the chicken rockets?
>>565098996you get 2 yes
>>565098836seems normal to me m8here's a timestamp from some random sloptubers video made 2 months ago that I found just now. trident heats up really fast on normal planetshttps://youtu.be/Ks3uBMIfTeM?si=fyDKz5G_kAGjSZcV&t=40remember, the first impression we had of it was on cyberstan, a cold planet
>>565099165The missile is AP5 you dumbfuck.
>>565098684sure
This patch broke something with my PC and the new bugs are awful and I read there are issues with pretty much every other enemy in regard of movement speed. I'll put the game on hold for now until this stuff gets fixed but, man, I have nothing else to play.
>maxigun muzzle flash reduction mod broken again>other mods that are just for funsies just fineLmfao, fuck you swedeniggers
>>565099342The Patriot has always been shit. Emancipator is better at everything.That seems to be the issue with Lumberer too: the Emancipator does everything it does, but better.
Were reddit bugs always this fast or I just dont remember them being that fast?Can't even outrun them with light armor.
>>565099165>he needs pen
>>565099165The stat page lied, the impact of the pissile is 1k AP6.
>>565099463>AP5what? why does it say medium?
>>565099342I agree, but the rockets are pretty good at quickly killing multiple dogs.Only problem used to be that a single dog cannon just fucked you over before you got to line up and fire your rockets, don't know how that is now though.
The day of reckoning is now here, chuds. You pussy faggots got so comfortable with your crutch strats and click-to-delete guns that you hallucinated a false sense of skill inside your own heads. Now that the line has been drawn it's time to separate the chads from the shitters and there's nothing you can do about it but cry for buffs. You may as well leave this elite forum and go post your "game too hard :'( " threads on reddit HAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Only the boosted shitters will argue this. Get fucked casuals. The real divers will take it from here

Pissile can also be dumbfired according to the wiki. Maybe it's actually good for popping Hulk eyes and war strider hips?
Missile Pistol is the inbetweener of the Ultimatum and Grenade Pistol>All can kill spawners>Ulti = 2 rounds / Pissle = 4 rounds / GP = 7 rounds>Ulti = 2000 damage / Pissle = 1300 damage / GP = 650 damage>Ulti = Kills massive enemies in 2 shots average / Pissle = Kills large enemies in 2 shots average / GP = Does fuck all to anything but chaff>Ulti = Teamkill whore / Pissle = Safe / GP = Pretty safeI personally am sick of the Ultimatum conveniently auto-equipping itself in my hands whenever I expend an EAT, despite it not being the weapon I was using prior, so I'm shifting to the Pissle.
>>565098443I'm tired of pretending this game is a precision milsim
>>565100091I havent seen a crossbow in ages... everyone is slamfire shotgunning or tridenting these days

>>565100354>Ulti = Kills massive enemies in 2 shots averageSHITTER ALERT
>>565100035For the record, I sincerely agree with this. I genuinely believe that RNG should heavily factor into all gameplay interactions and that min-maxing behavior should not be consistently rewarded. I'm sorry, but I don't personally believe certain axes of skill should matter in some games, Helldivers being one of them.

>>565100142Arrowhead thinks that if they wag their finger and act disappointed, then people will stop of their own volition (and buy out every warbond and SuperStore item as an apology).
>>565100581i lied to u hahhah
>>565100448It would be fine, but D10 revolves around spamming heavy enemies all the time while your ability to kill heavy enemies is vastly reduced compared to enemies.As such, you are forced to min/max to make D10 viable, which is why numbers start being important in order to be competitive.If D7 was the highest difficulty I am sure a lot less people would take ultimatum to every match and we would have the freedom to take stuff that is cool and not stuff that lets you sruvive D10...
>>565099342it has been borderline unusable since the first fix for the exosuits. It was an amazing AT missile sniper before then because you could actually lead and predict where your missile would hit because you didnt have to account for your crosshair just not being accurate.
>>565100581Erm, they can't just put a repair grenade in the mech warbond, chud

I wish I could take all 4 mechs and play nothing else. There are literally no other games like Helldivers 2 that are explicitly PvE-only semi-openworld shooters with both vehicular and infantry gameplay. The fact that the first tracked vehicle introduced into the game was a slow, cumbersome tank destroyer instead of an IFV is a god damned travesty.

I always brought heavy armor against predators due to their speed. Guess I will need to do the same tactic against normal bugs. No outrunning them.

>>565102206>>565102363>>565102632it isnt impossible for their bodies to be able to synthesize a biometallic chitinous plate
>>565102206There are certain animals that integrate a noticeable portion of metal into their shells.Create an animal that uses that process but is able to metabolize and concentrate much larger portions of metal into their carapace and you could probably get a bug-like creature that is bulletproof at least to some degree.Probably wouldn't work with skin due to the need for that to be flexible but exoskeletons could maybe work.
>>565102364Works on my machine ;)
>>565102758makes sense to me: the bugs were too slow
>>565102087Get a dog backpack. Use toxic gas grenades.
>>565102632depends on what this alien species chitinous-like material is made out of*for all we know it could have incredibly dense filaments of a natural iron alloy woven through it
>>565102528Both are larger than a hive guard, and I would believe something the size of a charger or bile titan could, hell I'd even be more willing to believe an alpha commander with an ap 4 head would make more sense than a hive guard, just based of size. I would unironically remove the current hive guard and put it on the backburner till more important things are fixed or adjusted.If I had infinite time I'd rework a HIVE GUARD into being just that. Make it heavily armored in the front, more scorpion like, with shield like front claws instead of scorpion pinchers, and a long striking tail, they sit back, guard entrainces to hives, bugholes, eggs, cave entrances etc etc. Also make them not spawn outside of these areas often if at all, since bug locations don't really have proper defenses like the other factions.
they should take the warrant and pissile's lock-on mechanic and give it to the stim pistol

>>565101820>squigger diverAnon, please take your meds. You're making up things that don't really exist again.
>>565102465I fear the Arc shotgun may not be enough. The RoF is too slow. Maybe the ballistic dog or perhaps the hotdog could do the job, paired with Lib carbine or Stoker. The K9 is probably ridiculously good too since pods are around 19 warriors and sanic scavs. I think the main thing here is using a fully mobile loadout, so no stationary reloads, just like Pred bugs. And since the heavy spam is insane EATs and Strafing runs will be necessary.>>565103074Yeah who knows if AH is going to keep them this way but probably should expect it to not be fixed for at least a while.

The spore bugs need to chill the fuck out, are they faster than the predator strain or just the same? But they are more annoying that's for sure.Also the new bile titan brapping knocks you prone, just what i wanted more ragdoll fuckery.

I actually like the speed buff for the scavengers even if it is a bug terminids are just bullet sponges now they feel a threat
there's no way to convince me this is okay.movement speed was one of the most well balanced things in the game and they blew it out of the water. Movement speedand stamina were the lifeblood of the game's fundamentals, you spend stamina to create breathing room. now you don't even get any breathing room. at all.wearing the super speed armor barely even helps, a spore scavenger can still outpace you by double, maybe flank you, or maybe just run up instantly from out of view when it spawns behind you within 20m and get your hitbox locked in a circle of bugs.I went to do solo runs with/without the new armor trait and with/without spore bugs to get some control tests after my first drop today and seeing this spore BT move at hunter speed.Are you fucking kidding me? Is it just the biome or are all spore terminids like this now? This clip is level 3, it's just impossible to get away, even with warp packs, even with light armor, even with the new armor. I've tried it all they just schwoosh right up to you instantly. As if it isn't bad enough these guys explode on you, they're already the "don't kill them up close" enemy so lets just remove the option to kill them far away :^)
>>565106253we got a glazediver over here boys

>>565106443>I NEEEEEEED TO PLAY ON THE FRONT WITH THIS NEW GIMMICK OR ELSEEEEEEEEOk little bro.
the movement speed wasn't in the patchnotes, was it? Surely it must be a bug and will be patch shortly.
>Bugdiver and Botdivers are sperging againThis is why we squigger killers stay winning.
Give me one good reason the Reprimand is still two-handed.
>>565106523It's obviously a variant of the FRV. It's just missing a wheel and only has two seats, it's basically the same thing!

Is this the worst update of the year?

>>565106743So far
>>565106743The worst update of the year so far
I like the fast bugsI dislike the spore cloud still damaging you
>>565106681swiggers literally forgot they put TE in the game
>>565106681Because AH is stubborn and gay while their golem defenders are retarded and gay.
>>565106660Let's be real nigga, nobody has beef with squid divers because they barely exist
Rip Stalwart against bugs
>>565106660>bugchaser tries to act cute>gets dished what it was serving>starts spergging out and calling people brownMany such cases
>>565106579they were just fast enough to catch anyone at all weight classes who was out of stamina and not fast enough to catch anyone that was sprinting, that was the whole fucking point of the game's mobility. If you can't escape anything you never have time to kill anything, it's dogshit. We already have hunter strains and shit, they solved the problem at RELEASE by making an enemy that can close the gap instantly. But you know what they did? They gave them predictable patterns and behaviors to this movement so you can predict and prioritize those enemies.These little faggots just schwooshing up to you with 0 effort is just you getting bumrushed 0 effort, it's devs hitting a "you lose" button on the planet.
Why do people consider this update so bad? I haven't been able to log in yet but nothing in the patch notes really jumps out as me as being egregious.
>>565106887>Barely existAnd I wanna keep it that way. Killing squiggers is a peaceful life.>>565107001Sad!

At least sheep detectives is getting good reviews. That won't disappoint me.
>>565106443Just from watching you play for 40 seconds I can tell you are genuinely bad at the game and lack the fundamentals of cleaning your own ass in D10.No proper grenades usage.Bad warps.No warps when needed.Only using the warp pack to run away instead of clearing.No red inputs.Bad dives.It's genuinely not the game, it's a skill issue on your part.
>>565107065Tourists are retarded and just parrot whatever they heard first creating a feedbackloop of retardation.
Sometimes it felt like I was playing Oblivion with guns. Which isnt necessarily a bad thing
Now that we have a medpen knight, can we have a medpen defender? I'm just not a big fan of crazy rof guns
>>565106646I don't "need" to play on the new biome I NEED the devs to rub two brain cells together before they do literally anything. I'd honestly rather they put the game in maintenance mode at this point than continue to run the game into the ground with lazy seed balancing, bad spawn changes, and just all around smug self-righteousness.
So generally speaking the losers of the update are>bug diversand >lib pen users
>>565107216>Sometimes it felt like I was playing Oblivion with guns.Fallout?

I think it should be optimal to aim at the body of hive guards, while still being able to damage them through their front armor with med penThey should have buffed the armored parts HP or something, cucking gatling/MG sentries, gun dogs and med pen weapons is retarded

But it's clear that nerf crackhead bugs discourse will come soon

I like the Breakthrough more than I thought I would, it's surprisingly satisfying to use the shield bash and it has the same demo force that the stomp has so you can break through most props and walls with it, but the animation is nicer than the stomp so it feels better.I thought I'd like the Lumberer more than the Breakthrough, but it doesn't feel as satisfying to use. The flamethrower feels unexpectedly weedy, the AT Cannon is nice I guess, but damn I thought it would just feel nicer to use.
>>565108603>>565108818One of the few reasons I don't play bugs is because I hate the vision obscuring slop
>>565108708It's funny how things in warbond that should be sure hit. Is meh. And stuff that you think is shit is fun. Bulletstorm has odd 8sec call time and is light pen. It is fine. But in the end stalward side grade. Missile pistol is okey. But both exosuits feel fun and new armour is fun.
>>565108774But it (mostly) isn't.Sentries are 0% durable.Tank is pretty much all AV3 and the only 0% durable parts are AV2, and you just run over melee enemies.FRV probably got fucked but it kinda was made of paper already anyway.
>Pissile is actually good it was just a bad tooltip>The medpen outrage was for nothingThey do it to themselves
>>565106752Them varmints done gone stole our STIMS
>>565108956There is something off with flamethrower. But shield feels amazing. If breakthrough had way to close bugholes. It would be perfect. >>565108818Every dayci yearn for moon biome.
>>565108560A plasma turret would ideally aim for medium targets as it's priority
This update screams Alexus
>bots got the lava planets>bugs got the tropical/beach planetwhat planet/biome exclusive will the squids get
>>565107412>buff mechs>buff enemies>thus nothing has changedMasterful gambit, what will sweden do next?
The new map is really pretty.
>New bile titan survives a leveller to the domeSo what the fuck do I bring? recoilless takes too long to reload bugs are on your ass the second you press R, EAT feels like it doesn't 1 shot them to the face anymore and even the leveller doesn't do shitHow do I deal with the 10 that will spawn out of every breach?
>>565109362They get snowy fields for kino melee duels and staining the snow blue and red
>>565108682the buff helps against the automatons who didnt get any additional damage buffs if anything the buffs bugs got was so they could still pose even a tiny threat to mechs with their new HP pools. HOWEVER the buff also increases how strong bugs are against emplacement and sentries without compensation.
>>565105458STILL 3/4
to those dudes who have trouble with guards
>>565108682But it got buffed against all the real threats while not making the lesser threats completely non existent.

>>565109549>difficulty 5Thank you, helldiver supreme
>>565109549THIS GOES AGAINST THE ENTIRE PARADIGM OF BUGS = HEADSHOT DEATH
>>565109262That would make sense. Being midrange sentry vs AC and rocket. Flamethrower and tesla for short range. 0-25m)Plasma and laser as med(50m)Mg, gattling, AC and rocket at long range.(75-100m)
>>565109549Nobody has trouble with them. It just fucks over turrets and very inaccurate weapons.
>>565109387>cum fish>bisected farmerThe robutt is on to something shit's fucked
>>565109549Light pen bros can't stop winning
>>565109650I thought that was bots
>>565102364Laser sentry status?
>>565109650That paradigm doesn't even work most of the time shooting bugs in the head causes them to tard rage charge you and get a cheap hit in because melee is wonky as fuck and sometimes you'll whifflegs should be the real weakpoint
>>565109558and by doing that it made bugs more deagarous for the frv and sentries for no reason great update 10/10 no fucking notes
>>565109801100+ IQ pick

Okay now I see why you would take bullet storm over stalwart, this thing is my shield against these rape bugs
>>565109549>helping prove that they are a pointless enemy that needs to be reworked or removed so the spawns are used by an actual good enemy typethanks
>>565109882Admirable, I suggest not using any reinforcements the next time you do it though.
>Extended magazine on the new SMG doesn't change anything visuallyWe've reached peak laziness boys
>>565109449I don't get what are they. They blow up as they die. Vomit attack is slightly diffrent and staggers you. They seem to have higher hp. But other then that. They are biletitans.I figured they would have been light armour. Higher hp and faster variant of biletitan.
The game is Helldivers not Hellsliders I didn't know people hit crouch in this game while running
>>565110069the backside of the mag is taller. no need to make shit up, the truth is bad enough.

>>565109984I wish they didn't do it, yet I perfectly understand why it happened and would likely do it if I was a dev.A frustrating feeling.

>>565110249huh. are they mad about the AMA?
>>565110069Fucking nogun retard
>>565110418they read "durable damage increase" when the only real losers are bastion which is still tanky as fuck against bugs and FRV which is faster than bugs. Emplacements got raped prepatch if enemies closed in on it melee range and sentries always got charger'ed anyways or instantly died if things reached melee anyways.
>>565101839The game gave me an entire shitty arsenal I am going to club the enemy's brain with every single of the weapons.Dagger included.
You know, maybe the AMA is a good thing. This latest patch didn't piss me off that much because I knew very well it would be shit. It's like hearing your cancer is terminal and coming to terms with it.Maybe I'm just coping, but I don't care. I'm free from this shitty game

No need for higher then med pen. energy shield and their fancy armou to protect them. votless being bodyhorro monsters. You need to target the limbs to kill them. Head is usless for them. .

Aight>SMGFeels a bit worse than the Knight, but I guess it's good if you don't have the Knight. Only okay outside of that comparison. >Missile PistolEh. Has a few good uses, but way worse utility than the GP. Might have a niche if you suck against jet pack men. Otherwise, it doesn't do enough damage, so just use the Ultimatum.>ArmorThe light armor is the only one worth looking at. It's... okay. Not as fast as I'd hope. I'd say it's the best for farming, but, the FRV is still faster. >Disposable MGDogshit. Worse than the standard MG for most purposes, hits a weird niche over the Stalwart for being the MG you can aim with. Might be interesting over the Stalwart if it was a normal gun. Not worth the inconvenience as a disposable. >LumbererUtter dogshit. The flamer has pathetic damage, it has nowhere near enough ammo on the cannon, and is constantly in situations where it can't actually deal with enemies. Struggles to perform any function whatsoever, it's actually kinda impressive with how ineffectual it is at literally anything. Best I can say, it does not in fact struggle with lighting itself on fire, which is better than I expected. >ShieldmechBetter than I thought, but not very good. Can bully small heavies, but is kinda inflexible. Still belongs nowhere near melee with a bile titan. The shield itself is decent. Awkward because no explosives means you are constantly getting out to blow up holes. Better than I expected, still not great. Might be good specifically on difficulty 5 and 6, when there's only light heavies, in low numbers. Overall, the bond itself is a flaccid 4 or 5/10, and most of that is the missile pistol. Niether mech is better than the Emancipator, and the Lumberer is a joke. The armor passive kinds sucks. The SMG is okay. The missile pistol, I don't really like it but I can see use cases that justify it.
>>565111473Chinks crying again.

>>565111560It mainly comes from the fear of getting caught in the crossfire if Arrowhead decides to do something. It can happen on games that can actually detect that shit. I remember in DS2 and someone dropped some modded binoculars and my DS2 file got flagged as a cheater.

>>565111368>put him on a watch listWe already knew they couldn't do anything but it is funny to see confirmation, it also is even funnier because someone would need to screencap you cheating and send it directly to the devs for them to even become aware it is happening.
>>565111991The problem is Arrowhead's changes are just making gas "worse fire" with every update.>Before, gas exclusively confused enemies>Fire gets the confusion AND a slow with Entrenched Division>Gas gets slow in the next updateSo now gas has zero unique properties, it's just fire but worse in every capacity except being safer in regards to proximity to teammates.
>>565106443Bugs were way too slow.
>>565112094YesThe shieldmech can effectively stunlock light heavies. It's good at punching into them, on the condition that they're alone. Fleshmobs are a bit inconsistent, as usual with them.

>>565108935I learned to play two years ago why should I have to relearn everything that worked for two years because some swigger wanted to have a giggle at us dying?I'm running missions just fine all day, it's just frustrating they got no idea what they are doing.And people are always talking about "THEN DON'T PLAY THAT DIFFICULTY" or "DON'T PLAY THAT FACTION"well where was the indicator that this "new" biome, not anywhere near to any of the gloom, was gonna have bugs crossfading on crack and crystal meth? This is officially the point where spore bugs need to be made an official bug faction if they are going to put this big of a change onto them.It's not even the movespeed itself. It's just the fact that there's 0 mitigation for it, you either waste grenades and other resources on what are supposed to be trash enemies or get overwhelmed. I didn't come here bitching when Cyborgs were out there overclock bot speeds, if they can do that then why is it just a global buff on these bugs? Why don't they make it an enemy that buffs the other bugs with spores so we can be tactical about it and have some back and forth play?What they did is just lazy, that's what's wrong. Just like it was lazy when they added pretty much everything since Into the Unjust, the difficulty level system they put in was an afterthought and spawn rates and objectives on every new biome or missions type since then are pretty much identical.
>>565112221There only option is to make our gas also apply acid effects. If they did gas would become top tier utility overnight >>565112481It's 12 seconds without the ship upgrade, the XMG is already under it's effects sadly
>>565112508>all that copeYou are bad at the game and lazy, fuck off and go back to regular bugs you low IQ nigger.
>>565112160it feels so fucking good, especially if you want to magdump some cocksucker in particular
>>565109549yes now instead of face shooting it 4 times with talon when it's far away you just wait until it's close and one tap it below the chinthe thing is honestly even more worthless than it was before which begs the question why it needed to be changed?
As far as I can tell, the Breakthrough's shield is some ridiculously high AP tier with its own unique health pool completely separate from the mech. I've intentionally sat in front of Spore Titan spew beams and it does no visible damage to the Exo, while at the same time the shield's healthpool barely dwindles by 1-2% for the entire duration of the breath attack.
>>565112443thats your chance to refund btw

It's insane that we still don't have loadouts.
>>565106523Fuck that. no side car i want to Evel Knievel
Are gloom bugs on crack ? why are they so fucking fast ????They're even faster than Predditor
>Said the Breakthrough would be the surprise star>It isYeah it turns out when you have an effective infinite use melee option that's not shit, be practically invincible from the front, and aggro everybody by virtue of being in a mech, that combo turns out to be really good.
>>565112221Proper gas still has the vision blocking effect, which makes the confusion defacto stronger, since they can only see and fight eachother. Gas remains a bit better for pure crowd control and aggro management by that virtue alone, while fire is better at everything else. Granted that's pretty minor and does nothing for the Sterilizer (I think). The main thing going for gas is the methods of application are better, and it's less lethal to teammates (the slow made this a bit worse, but it's still absolutely the option that is less likely to kill allies)
>>565112824I'm basing it off the fact in the last thread anons already said it's 8 seconds with the upgrade and 12 without
>>565111687Knight was already the highest DPS primaryGallant is now the highest DPS med pen primaryGallant literally makes all other med pen besides sweeper or your med marksman of choice obsolete. There's no reason to take coyote with its nerfed useless fire, or Lib Pen that's just Gallant with half the fire rate.
PLEASE just patch the Linux bug already
>>565112960yes
I'm pretty sure illuminate dropships got a huge stealth buff to their shields, used to be able to drop them with the Bastion's HMG and blow them up with the cannon, and now, I can barely destroy the shield before the ship drops it's payload. What's the point of making the ships destructible if they're going to make sure you can never blow them up.
the new expadlabe machine gun havin the double the call in time of the EAT is a bug surelly right RIGHT
>>565113221Yeah, they haven't applied the buff from the ship properly.
>>565111368>phone photo>broken englishlmao is this the guy that calls you brown for SC cheating?
>>565113013I find the Gallant too hard to control. The fire rate makes it so a lot of ammo goes into corpses. Also I'm pretty sure it suffers from the SMG drag issue as well. Cotoye is much more pleasant at range.
>>565111730if you weren't retarded you would see that shows all reviews not the recent ones
Still stuck in wagie. How good is the xmg as a supplement to an anti-heavy build to deal with chaff in the same way EATs supplement an anti-chaff build to deal with heavies?

>>565113265>>565113351sasuga sweden

>>565113013EhI just don't value dps as much. Like, something can absolutely have inadequate dps and that's awful, but there is in fact a point of "enough" dps, and having more than adequate only really matters for like, Fleshmobs and kinda Bile Spewers. Ability to punch up, deal with crowds, or other utility functions are way more important to me. None of which it really does, besides being a proper one handed weapon, that you can carry shit with. If I valued either shield higher, it might do a bit better. I haven't tried the new ballistic shield but a bit more hp doesn't really translate to meaningful changes to how it functions so... eh. Like it's not bad, it functions, I could see using it and being happy. But it just doesn't have any of that special something that makes a primary stand out. I think at least.

The swedes will never change anything until you start fucking with their money.

They have no incentive to fix anything as long as retards keep throwing money at them every 2 months
>>565114285their balacing master currency is "stratagem slots" with "backpack slot" playing a minor role.A flamethrower is one stratagem slot for a gun.The mech is one stratagem slots for two guns and extra armor.

Lower. The. Difficulty.Stop whining about the enemies you retarded indian shitters.
>>565114945>>565114784Why is an indian the CEO of a swedish company anyway
>>565114798and you're still wondering why 20-30% of the playerbase never participates in the MO?
>>565114790I know, I know.But it is worth acknowledging, considering the average shitter isn't playing above 6 anyways, and that's going to shape the opinion of it.
>>565114081>i was merely pretending to be retarded for (you)s
>>565115003hi gucci slipers
>>565115042Don't see ur point
>>565115037Because indians are easily controlled by jews.
>>565114954ERM, explain without sounding mad or hurling insults why it shouldn't take at least 2 stomps if not more to kill a hunter??? Maybe don't run out of ammo or get close.>>565115037Cool it with the racism, chud
>>565115037Shams is iranian, but arabs and indians are cut from the same poo phenotype cloth.
>>565114954>>lumberers flamer has minimum range because reasonsI guarantee you this is because otherwise it chronically lights itself on fire, and the alternative was making it fireproof, which Alexus proceeded to have a melty over.So minimum range it is.
>>565114738I'm on D10 and the Breakthrough is doing impeccably well. I don't understand how you could struggle with it.>Can't be rammed by Chargers unlike every other Exo because the shield bash staggers them out of it>Large horde? Backpedal, shoot the bigger stuff, and alternate with a one-tao shield bash to kill 5+ enemies waddling in your feet>Shotgun can mag dump every enemy on the bugs to death. Chargers and Bile Titans all die in the 6 shots per reload if all shots connect in a squishy area>70 rounds means you get to kill 11 big enemies>One blast of the flak cannon is like an Orbital Airburst and will shred thick hordes if you want to thin them that way>Piss easy to hit Shriekers, you can kill an entire flock that spawns on the edge of the map and herds towards you in 1-2 blasts
>>565115037because Sweden is actually Canada-tier of progressive spiraling to the point of literally willingly killing themselves before ever harming a brownoid

>>565115256Explain without coping why the mech equipped with a flamethrower wouldn't be immune to its own fire weapon in the 2184 where Super Earth has near instantaneous FTL travel and backpack sized warp tech?????

>>565115535>BUT BOTS
If lumberer is to remain as is patriot needs something too. Currently lumberer has almost twice the AT capacity which is far easier to land and even does slightly more damage. the minigun isn't any better than flamer, maybe they could balance it if they removed spin up time
>>565114815I like the updates so i pay for warbonds.Sweden works for me.
>>565115545Oh honey, media literacy is not strong with you.
>>565115545Probably because it's tied to other shit in the game.Wouldn't surprise me if it shared entities with helldivers or cars therefore making one mech invulnerable to fire makes every other mech and car in the game invulnerable to fire or even fucking helldivers.
>>565115535Did the thingSee: >>565106246
>>565115545Because making the mech take fire damage is easier than dealing with Alexus shrieking and shitting on the floor in your office
>>565115465>>for no reason at all lose your shieldThis has not happened once in the 20 missions I've done today. The shield has its own massive health pool separate from the mech. In fact, the arm holding the shield is covered from every angle except the most immediate left rear flank. So at that point I don't know how you're losing that arm when you'd have to try to show off that specific part.
>>565115628>1000 grind currency stratagem is stronger than free stratagemi fail to see the issue

>>5651106583/4 again
The AMA left everyone disappointed. There is no progression coming any time soon. Each time they'll add new content it's gonna be abandoned in favour of novelty. The game is basically an ankle-deep ocean of content. It feels like they want to lose the hardcore playerbase so the only ones left are the mid-game players that still have something to do and thus don't complain as much. Then these players will level up and quit as there is no more incentive to play. The last progression update was nearly a YEAR ago. Mind you the game is slightly over 2 years old. 2 years and they have already given up on in-game progression while each part of it feels undercooked. It sucks so much to see this game fall apart. Call me a whiner or whatever but I just want something that will keep me interested in the game and reward me for playing.
>>565116778Bring it to bots or squids. Spore Strain enemies have durability that leech the DPS pretty severely.

>>565117882Someone mentioned the heavy, anti-gas strategy of gassing yourself constantly for effective immortality one time too many, and Alexus finally heard about it
>>565117339They are only focusing on short term gains. Things like warbonds and cyberstan attracts crowds of returnfags and tourists that spend money on supercredits to catch up or get the new stuff. You, the long term hardcore player, do not buy supercredits and thus giving you lasting content has no short term payoff. Even long term quality of content is not a priority as the returnfags and tourist come and go in a short enough period that things just need to be functional enough to hold their short attention.
>>565118020Except for that last part, since now you only get medals for MOs that you were logged in for. This is to guarantee that the tourists either play for a bit longer to keep engagement numbers up, or to ensure that they can't get the first page "for free".

>>565119046I have more dont worry.
The xmg has too many bullets and shoots too fast with little recoil. It's too good at killing off chaff and makes all other chaff clearing support weapons invalid in comparison. You also get two of them at a time. A nerf is order to maintain balance integrity.
>>565118830me when everyone is freaking out over hiveguards when they fucking melt instantly if you shoot them literally anywhere that isnt armored parts
>>565119096How about I turn you off faggot.

>>565118998Jetpack or JihadBulletstorm or EATEMP MortarYour choice of red
>>565119216The armor change makes mg and gatling sentries useless against bugs. When a bullet sentry targets a hiveguard it wastes all of its ammo on it. The beam sentry is now the bug sentry.

New speedy spore bugs are…. Interesting.Never thought I’d respect the humble scavenger as a threat.I wish it was only BTs as the heavies so I could be greedy with light/med start guns, but, thats just d10.
>>565119709>Enemy durable damage buffs that changes nothing>he says when after the last patch some enemies do 3x more durable damage>it's so bad now that if they actually made helldiver heavy armor durable then we would start taking more damage from that alone than if they didn't do thatBro, the durable buffs are going to end up making our sentries more fragile than they were at launch at this rate
>>565103724Its their only own.
>>565119841Sentries are 0 durable so it does nothing, FRV got down graded from cardboard to paper and tank is unaffected.

I think the stalwart might just be better, even with the recoil. Similar ergo, Variable fire rate, standard reload, an actual sight in ADS, any random ammo box gives you +250 boolets, 1,000 boolet reserve, stalwart just does everything you want light pen to do with none of the hassle.If the bulletstorm had a fast call-in like EAT it might not feel so clunky, but its annoying calling it in and getting pushed away from where ever you threw it because your current bulletstorm is out of ammo or running low.
>>565118623You're already playing an Early Access game, dumbass. >no working servers at launch>everything was, and still is, buggy and unfinished>launched with unfinished factions>one of the major factions was missing and is still unfinished>didn't even go through a basic optimization passJust because you're paying for the updates doesn't mean it isn't an unfinished early alpha.
>>565120324Retard
>>565103724The biggest own would probably be that one time bugs were launching 3 or 4 invasions from 1 planet and bugniggers failed the easiest gambit of all time
>>565117339I'm just gonna uninstall again
>>565120004>You just ditch them after they are out of ammoYou know that's just for gameplay right? Or are you implying the mechs are as disposable as an EAT tube would be.>no bro the items need to be shitty because it'd be realistic, actuallyYou do realize that even cheap weapons in real life are actually decently effective against their contemporaries? There are countless examples. Kill yourself you stupid dev and discord parroting faggot nigger.
>>565120274ThisHonestly outside of illuminate I usually lower the Stalwart's fire rate, not having that ability hurts the ammo economy on a weapon where that's even more important.I also see people getting cut off from their second gun and getting overwhelmed all the time. The EAT this is less of an issue, but this thing WANTS to be used under those conditions.The long call in also very much sucks
>>565120572>Or are you implying the mechs are as disposable as an EAT tube would be.Pretty much. You leave them behind on a planet surrounded by swarms of hostiles. And even if it survived (no way), the logistics of moving this shit back into Super Destroyers would be a nightmare. >mohfuggen bix nood discord shieeeeeeetLower the difficulty.
>>565120274what if they made it med pen instead?
>>565100798>Erm, this war bond? >Yep, practically unusable
>>565121259It'd be way too powerful as a recoilless MMG, you'd trivialize anything with a medium weakpoint in one burst. I'm not really sure why its recoilless in the first place, I think adding recoil and going medium would give it a more interesting niche.
>speed armor>actually feels faster>try new planets>bugs have 3x speed nowGoing back to bots. :)
Gad to see the random one shot blow up when no enemy is near is still here
>>565122398Its a staple
>>565122301Is that suppose to be an environmental feature of the new biome?oxygen rich planet therefor everything moves faster?
>>565122301Thw reason they made the bugs so fast is so they could get good boy points for making the armor faster but justify slowing down the armor to the value they actually want in the same update they'll slow down the bugs
Did they fix the armored striders not dying from their rockets exploding ?
