>>565312636took your sweet time
my shield, man
The Raped
bugs owe me sexbots owe me sexsquids owe me sex
Remember to bring FAGs to spore strain
Wouldn't it have made more sense to change the Hive Guard's front plating so it was AP3 ablative? Like beefed up Overseer armor? You know where you have to destroy it first before you can kill the Hive Guard? Wouldn't that have achieved the same thing of being tankier while also not making the Maxigun or Patriot feel like doodoo?
>>565312702I hate corpses like you wouldn't believe
>>565312790What's that one
>>565312702Why do corpses need to do damage? The fuck? Like I get if it was flying at mach speed and it kills you but that's the lightest fucking tap in the world and it still blows up the shield.
>>565312809making the experience worse is the point
>big mech buff patch>mechs still get raped by botslollmao even
>>565312790I am not bringing you on my team you homo
>>565312926because arrowhead's whole philosophy is that random instant deaths from an appendage moving at 6 km/h = funny xd
>lib carb + stalwartspore bugs fear mebut I fear chargers and bile titans more
>>565313048Fair enough. I do find the rape rate in Sweden funny too.
>>565312916Fire, arc and gas. If your team brings enough they can be locked down very efficiently. I recommend gas mines and tesla tower with whatever fire.>>565313002Nooooo I meant the acronym! I'm not a homo!
>>565312809>adding a new hitzone and updating the model to have the head armor and head underneath be separate partsToo much work and would have made the game run worse, prease understand. Best we can do is increase durability.
thrilling gameplay
>Wake up>Go to work>Read up on the new comment Shams made on the trooncord when he try to defend this update as a "big one."Amazing, this is more entertaining that this game.
>no lobbydead
Sloptubers lost. Crydivers lost. Reddit buff indians lost. Nerfgods and doxxchads run this game.
>>565313126Ah okYeah I never drop into bugs without my trusty crematorMaybe I'll give gas mines a shot now that sentries are in the back seat
Who tf here links 4chan on r*ddit jesus fucking christ
>>565313582Yeah I found sentries to be too unreliable because they trigger the spore speed buff then get overwhelmed. Gas and fire don't trigger that
>>565312702apparently the arm hitbox clips through the shield so roughly at the center of the shield and on the left side it'll just damage your arm instead, instantly deleting your shield and arm.
>>565313339wait they released a new biome? was it the current MO planet?
>ap5 head armour on hive guards>but they die if you tickle them with light pen weapons nowOh ok I see the vision. you wanted to buff light pen weapons without nerfing med pens>gatling weapons now can't kill hive guardtypical cackhanded swedes. I can't imagine that second part was intended but they have no fucking idea whats going on in their game.
>>565313759It's time to stop pretending 99% of this general isn't already on reddit
>>565313759>>565313985go back
>>565313985>nerftranny trying to normalize reddit touristskys
>>565313954Every balance change in this game is needlessly overcomplicated and obtuse. Is this a Swedish thing? Are they adjacent to Germans in that everything needs to be a Rube Goldberg machine to crack open an egg?>Agree with the playerbase that mechs are squishy>Buff the mechs so they're less fragile>But then in the exact same patch make enemies deal more durable damage which defeats the purpose of the buffs>Those same durable damage buffs make everything else feel like shit
AH AH more ragdoll enemies please
>>565313985I am the 1%
>>565313759this general is full of redditor shitters, they shamelessly admit that they're astroturfing this place
>>565314323I make fun of the armor system all the time. It's probably the most comically overcomplicated armor system I've ever seen in a videogame with little benefit to its implementation.
>>565313759Reddit has tons of people that lurk in various 4chan threads that exist solely to inhale slop to post on reddit for upvotes These people are even worse than trannies
>>565314323I have a feeling that arrowhead don't understand their own armour systemIn fact they don't understand their own game and why it became so popular
>>565314323I bet it's as simple as>buff the mechs>test it on d6 for a bit >oh wow I got swarmed and they did fuck all, that's not intended>ehh give the chaff durability damage because we don't want to hurt the mech in the mech warbond & we want the mech to feel powerful>oh that's going to offset the mech health.>give it like 400 more health the mech is still powerful, it's just that getting swarmed eats shit. >the acid damgethis is fucking baffling though. I assume they tanked a couple bilespewers full on and thought that was too much in testing so just overnerfed it. >>565314556yeah it's fucking weird that theres mutlitple unarmoured states, one heavy and one medium and then 5~? tank armour states. I wonder if they spent so much time on that in the design phases, implemented it and realised way, way too late that it's not necessary but it's already fundamental.
Been seeing a lot of pubs using orbital napalm on nubugs and ive fuckING HAD IT
how do i make better arrows mod?
>>565314978orb nape is a staple of pubdivers on bugsi think about 9/10 of them use it simply becaue of how fucking braindead it is
>hidden change where chargers now turn around faster after chargingWhy tho? Nobody was killing them from the back anyway. Why make it HARDER for the few people that do?
>>565315132i remember back when you had to master the art of shooting the rear of their clawsgames piss easy nowadays
Current Gloom spawns are so blatantly designed around the Lumberer that it's not even funny.>Endlessly spawn Spore Titans which are a two-tap for the Lumberer's 75mm cannon>Endlessly spawn buglets for the flamethrower
>>565315261ive had far more success with the breakthrough
>>565314978This is just a consequence of bugs being a braindead dps check that punishes you really hard if you don't meet it and orb nap being the most foolproof way of doing so.
>>565315048>oh bug holes I will use my trusty grenade pistol t->WRONG STAND AROUND FOR A WHOLE MINUTE WHILE THE NORBITAL ONLY TAKES OUT 2 HOLESNOW WAIT FOR THE FIRE TO LEAVEOH AND THE BUGS LIVED JUST LONG ENOUGH TO SUMMON ALL THEIR FRIENDS TOO
>>565315487bro cope i got a x20 kilstreak from that :D
>>565313209Works on my machine (Arch btw.)
>acknowledge that bugs struggle against vehicles while saying bots and squids are fine>Buff durable damage in bots anywayWhat is this type of balancing called?
>>565314323I think for the mechs at least AH believes they're powerful and tanky enough, but also know that the community disagrees with that. So they buff them to please the community. But they don't actually want to make them stronger, so they buff enemies along with it to keep the powerlevel of the mech roughly the same.Then again we had the Bastion that they were completly free to design how they want, and it still cam with enemy durable damage buffs across the board. So who knows. Maybe they really are addicted to overcomplicating everything.
>>565315132I still sometimes kill them by blowing their ass. I think that the quicker turn speed also affects them while they are charging you, not only after they've charged. That's how it has been feeling to me personally. They are more like a homing missle now.
>>565315534ILL SHOW YOU 20X
>>565315889>They are more like a homing missle now.They've always been that way when you're host.
>>565314556what's so complicated about having three states of "no damage, some damage, full damage"?
if the reviews keep getting negative in a few hours we will have negative reviews,it's all according to the plan
>>565316121>Three states
>>565316240are you merely pretending to be retarded or are you actually retarded?
>>565316240dumb fuck
>>565316240retard
>Did some bot runs with /hdg/ yesterday>Everyone used mechs and tanks>Stomped them with no problemI dont get it, whys everyone pissed
>>565316460because they don't actually play the game, they just complain about it
>>565316460performative bitching for the sake of itspreadsheet gamers having a melty over patchnotes
>>565316460Gotta get the backed up feefees out somehow
>>565316328>>565316356>>565316379There are not three states, did you go to the Swedish school of counting?>Full penetration>60% penetration>Ablative>Explosive resistance which scales with armor penetration after the fact>Deflection angle which scales in relation to armor type>Zero penetration
>spear now gives 5 shots>doesn't kill a titan in 1 shot>doesn't give full ammo with resupply
>>565316240whats the point
>>565316614Unfinished half-baked shit system.
>>565316578spear is reserved for D7 where you can afford to waste 3 rockets on a single bile titan.
>>565316460
>>565316614reserved for future use obviously
Reminder that SC cheating is already back in full force, more AFK-able than ever, and all it cost was AH fucking over people trying to farm SC pickups legitimatelyA+
>>565316460Because if you're not using mechs, this MO is an absolute ball buster.
>>565316578for years the spear has been relentlessly punished merely for existingnever being allowed to be even remotely useful in the face of the recoilless rifle effortlessly solving any armor problem instantly
>>565316460>bots
I have improved a lot on the delayed puke timing of the spore titan and aiming headshots with the RR.As long as I got homies covering my back from tiny ankle biters, I shall squash every single spore bile titan from a bug breach on D10.And if the homies don't got me, Unflinching got me.
I wonder if the laser cannon is any good for the gloom bugs. it does heat damage but I worry it would kill them too quick for the fire to affect them and stop them cumming crack for the other bugs.
>>565316460Because sentries were nerfed for no reason and the actual problem with mechs, that being the way they encourage rundiving and only using ammo to speedrun objectives, not actually being addressed?
>>565316953The swede mind thinks that because the SPEAR has lockon that its an easymode weapon and needs to do shit damage to compensate Nevermind that because it has lockon its actually worse since you cant hit weakpoints
>>565316460Buff indians don't play the game.
>>565316907link?I have never dabbled with it
>>565317097Laser Cannon is way too slow for this amount of enemies. LC is exclusively for precision weakpoint melting, and bugs don't really have that.
>>565316907This is objectively false, new 100 SC limit per mission means you have to restart the mission all the time after getting 100 SC.
>light oxygenator>grenade launcher>warp pack>EAT(purely for closing BT holes)you may not like it but this is what peak performance looks like
>>565316240I understand you anon. Don't listen to the other meanies.
>>565317317>He doesnt know
>>565317358how do you avoid rape by 100 sanic scavangers????
>>565313948Yeah
>>565313759this is why you should tell every faggot that posts reddit screencaps to kill themselves and go back to their shitty website
>>565317443if you press your left mouse button your gun will fire
>>565317443just don't shoot themnever killing any of them means they never get fast
>>565317532YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO SEX THE BUGNOT KICK IT
>>565317443with the power of friendship
>>565317487>the same procedurally generated terrains, but with slightly more greenw-woah rape sweden
is it always going to be more ragdolls every updatewhen will it stop
>>565317745the new forest biome is literally swamp biome with different tree models as well
bored of the new biome alreadygive me a super earth controlled megacity
>>565317097I was running it some last night and while its still a niche pick for bugs purely because of how lasers function, it DOES stop sporeniggas from exploding regardless of how quickly it kills them.
New biome idea: Oklahoma
the only biome i want is desertdesert desert desert
>>565317889Imagine the sentry deaths
how do I join lobbies here?
>>565318021paste the link into your browser>consoleyou don't unless you get invited in-game by someone already in the lobby
>>565317930new biome idea, dessert
>>565317295>slow oh wow that's the opposite problem I was expecting. I know it's a weak point drill but given (most) bugs are light I assumed they'd die quick enough to not matter, excepting hive guards or anything i'd need something bigger to kill. >>565317834I had the idea after using the scythe and that worked out pretty well, I assumed bigger laser bigger success and then I could use an eruptor or something for the bug nests leaving my secondary on the ultimatum instead of a grenade pistol. god I wish the rocket pods were worth a fucking damn. >don't track targets >doesn't kill targets it does trackChrist even in its video preview it doesn't kill all the things it shoots at.
>>565318083thank you
>>565316571>>Deflection angle which scales in relation to armor typedeflection angle doesn't scale with armor type, it's a baked in value that every weapon treats the same way other than what penetration that specific weapon has in a specific angle of impact bracket. those brackets being 0 to 19 degree impacts, 20 to 59, 60 to 79, and 80+ degree impacts. >>Explosive resistance which scales with armor penetration after the factexplosive resistance is not part of the armor system. 8 armor or 0, a parts explosive resistance is an arbitrary value assigned to it with no regard for the armor value of that part
>>565318239>explosive resistance is an arbitrary value assigned to it with no regard for the armor value why are the swedes like this
why can't we buy the armors we didn't get on past events? I really want the cheese armor I like it,I guess the swiggers are allergic to money
A FATWA ON THE CALIPHATE OF SWEDISTAN FOR THEIR HOMO EROTIC DEGENERACY INSHALLAH
Is OPS slower than it used to? I remember sniping a lot of bile titans with it. Not sure if I'm out of practice, or if the swedes sweded it up.
>>565318239This is even worse than I imagined.
>>565318486I knew Arrowhead were incompetent the moment I heard them say OPS was intended to be for spawner killing only.>A spawner killer that has a minute+ cooldownAre they stupid? Even pre-60 day buffs before AT could destroy bot spawners, this is horrible.
What if...AH went all out on the power fantasy for Helldivers 2.Then they made a spin off game/DLC where we play as SEAF. This way AH can double, triple, nay, quadruple down on the so called "grunt fantasy" with SEAF gameplay.
>>565317317RetardThere is no limit OUTSIDE of the missions.
>>565318674>the eat pod itself is a better spawner killer than the devs intended spawner killer
>>565318758so nothing has changed as far as passive farming on the ship is concerned and you're just being retardedgotcha
>>565318674>heard them say OPS was intended to be for spawner killing onlyThis game is some sort of cognitohazard where asking innoculous questions can lead you to cursed knowledge like this.
>>565318814God you're a moron of unfathomable proportions.Go on, try and do the previous ship SC farm lmao
>>565318674>OPS was intended to be for spawner killing onlyTHESE NIGGAS DONT EVEN PLAY THEIR OWN FUCKING GAME
landing ops on big boys is my favorite thing
>>565319117Bet for a brief moment that titans spine felt so goodGod my back hurts
>>565319270Maybe you should orbital precision strike your back.
>>565319270get someone to squish you down on bed,I used to do that to friends who had bad back pain,you just need someone heavy and do a little bit of force on the sides of the back not directly in your spine obviously and then you will feel relieved,you just have some pressure in the joints of your back anon,hope this helps
>>565319435god I wish someone would squish me down on the bed...I am so lonely...
>>565319270>God my back hurtsdo a hand stand against the wall a couple times a day twice a week
>>565319117why does this work but 500kg sometimes fumbles it?
>>565319270>God my back hurtsdo consecutive back flips to mobilize the spine and relieve pressure.
>>565319654the only time I can think of where the 500kg fails is when the user missed it horribly or you got unlucky with angle and the projectile got stuck in a rock, blocking most of the blast
>>565319654to be fair sometimes the OPS also fumbles it.
>>565319914doesn't it still do that thing where the explosion doesn't do damage after a direct hit?
>>565318546only eagles and orbital projectiles have gradually lower penetration with angle. every other weapon only cares about the extreme angle hit, which is obvious on its face and shouldn't need explaining because of course hitting a target at a near parallel angle is going to see the bullet skid offthey've even made the system less complicated over time. many weapons did used to have various penetration values based on imapct angle beyond the extreme angle hit, but they were all standardized. except the patriot rockets which is the last hold out of the old system.
>>565319117excuse me I was told spore titans are immune to damage because EATs don't one shot them. you must be cheating.
>>565319735can confirm, just did seventeen in a row and never felt more nimble
>>565319270Hang from monkey bars or a pull up bar for a minute+ multiple times a day. This un-squishes your spine, I don't know why the other anons are telling you to squish your spine more.
>>565319430>>565319435I simply need help from the bots >>565319631Never heard of thisLooks crazyThangs anon
