Necromancy EditionPrevious:>>569348143>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.

Playing a bit into casual pie in the sky stuff.What would be a Helldivers spin-off game or story or movie or show or whatever tht you would think of as nifty to have served up to you on a silver platter?Stuff like:>An Eagle 1 ace combat clone.>Walking simulator horror game of some rando citizen just trying to survive and escape their megacity when squids turn on their monolith and start mindfucking everyone. Bots also present and trying to seize a it, three way fighting going on in background. it'd be a whole thing.>Linier FPS campaign in the spirit of COD all about one diver group going from planet to planet in the first days of HD2. At the farms during Terminid containment breach, Malevelon, TCS missions, blow up a prototype factory strider to delay it's development, that sort of stuff.>Dating sim for the kicks.A quality assurance will be that it gets to be at minimum say 8/10 in whatever media/genre domain you choose.

>>569460525That's nuts. I kinda wanted those weapons. I hope they don't just super store them snd armours.
>>569461174Honestly all I want is a Helldivers clone set in real world so I can slot floppies or bag ragheads with my buddies around the world. A little mercenary outfit.I have 0 interest in the universe, if I wanted a generic derivative sci-fi soup I'd play Darktide or something.
>>569462523just play ghost recon then
I almost don't even want to share this because this shit hurts my fucking eyes like snow blinding me and I feel like its going to cause someone a seizure but I have never seen this before and just jfc

>>569462570You either never played Helldivers or never played Ghost Recon because the only similarity in gameplay is that they're third person perspective co-op shooters.Also:>Ubislop>cagshit>sci-fi anyway"No."
>>569462523Just play Cawwadooty

>we went from vague announcements to slightly less vague announcementsI guess that's an improvement
>>569461174Dead Space clone horror game where you try to survive as a Helldiver that was mistakenly de-iced from a secret cryo cache on an occupied squid planet.

Is there a use case for the 120mm barrage? Not sure why you'd use it over the 380mm barrage and if you need precision strikes you'd just go with something else entirely.
>380mm over 120mm
>>569468341It's a shittier gatling barrage. Use it if you want variety but thats it
I can't believe we're just never getting another warbond ever again
>>569468341Because it has a lower cooldown and 380s are overkill. Base clearing is better done with Walking Barrage.
>>569468839warbond soontrust the swedes bro
>>569468194>>569468249transmog isn't needed as much as a fucking hue slider for every armor.This way each armor still accurately represents a passive but just has different colors and lets you match different hues between helmets, armors and capes.

>>569470240>The Illuminate would tolerate the borgs and bugs literally enshttifing their galaxyWMD memes aside the squids are just as imperial as SEPeople forget their whole goal in HD1 was to leave the galaxy in basically a state of stasis so they could study it forever
>>569470634>bugs rape the galaxy just by existing and spreading wildlyironic
>>569470634No. The bugs stop evolving when they stop being attacked. >>569470648No they're not. There is no lore to suggest they ever took over planets from other factions.
>>569470715Nigga...They're literally the stargate memeThey wuz kings and already subjugated man in ancient egyptTo believe that they wouldn't take drastic action against any species that threatens their hegemony is at best naiveSE shot first and sure that makes them bastards but they're not wrong to be afraid of the squiggers

>>569470870Source: It came to me in a dream.
>>569470956>>569471076They're literally Illuminati pharo niggasHow this is an argument is beyond meAnd it verges on being blatant bait"The Illuminate have had settlements in this galaxy for millennia. In the late 21st century there were plenty of Illuminate recon ship sightings, but these were dismissed as folklore back then."They're literally the alien shadow government conspiracy from modern dayThis is unironically a media literacy problem if you can't put 2 and 2 together
>>5694712764/10 desu
>>569469681No fuck off with that apple bacon bullshit. You can have both transmog and a match color option no problem
>>5694712762/10 you didn't even try
If you can't parse even the bare minimum of vague plotlines I'm not gonna keep arguing about itBelieve what ya want but the truth is out there and it's pretty obvious
>>569470240No they wouldn't. The Illuminate would attack the automatons for destroying the environment. The Automatons would attack the Illuminate for wanting to genocide humans. And bugs are animals that both sides hunt to use as fuel.
>>569471276AH has been 100% clear that SE are the bad guys exclusively. There isn't a debate here.
soober erf..
>>569471526Holy mental larp no one cares about your fanfic we're talking about the actual lore.
fucking lol
>>569471540Based and true frenJust like Paul Verhackeven intended B)
>>569471576retarded cutediver
>>569471430Armors shouldn't have passives, just providing a base visual set, then passives should be simply specific gear models like additional magazines, medical packs, gas tanks, etc. on predefined attachment points on the armor.+ recolours
oh it's the starship poopers sperg, that explains it
>>569471598That is the actual lore. That is what they would do if super earth wasn't around.
>>569471801No.
>>569471626>dude makes a movie making fun of nationalists and it's popular>this angers them>seethe for decades after pretending that it's actually making them look cool instead
>>569471829no true scotsman incoming
>>569471675Passives should be training you get with your armor
>>569471829he actually made the nationalists look really cool and happy though? no ones mad at him for anything but failing to make a compelling satire and instead making a badass fascist fantasy
>>569471903yeah they looked ecstatic when they were being disemboweled
>>569471818Yes. The moment Super Earth is out of the picture. The factions would attack each other because they are ideologically opposed to each other. This is the actual lore of the game, not your fan fiction.
>>569472027No.
>>569471526It's kinda funny that the teeming mass of bugs are the most peacefulEven if it's just because they're predatory by natureIn a vacuum they would probably just become fat and defenseless while doing next to nothingIs there even lore to explain where their biomass comes from?It's almost certainly lower class citizens that don't get evac'd but they also have that spore shit going on so who knows
>>569472027AH have already stated there would be peace without SE. And you have no other source to suggest otherwise.
>>569472067Yes.
>>569461174FPS about a Helldiver that got left behind on a planet deep within the system. Plays like a doom clone with you starting off with your shitty peacemaker but picking up new weapons along the way including bot and squid ones.Everything is scaled up to make for better set pieces and fights. Stuff like Alpha commanders, fleshmobs and cyborgs would make miniboss fights rather than just chaff. Make up some crappy reasons why all 3 factions are dicking around on this one planet.
>>569472118Where did they say that?
>>569472027The moment Super Earth is out of picture Illuminate go back to wherever they were chilling for the past century, Automatons live happily in their communist utopia and Terminids just keep living on whatever planets they end up on because they don't have space travel so every invasion is just Super Earth moving them around. It's not like Bots or Squids actually need their blood as fuel like Super Earth does.This is the canon lore.
They did itSuper Earth is explode and the divers are no moreWhat do the factions do next
>>569472120No
>>569472118>AH have already stated there would be peace without SE.Source?Not trying to be sarcastic i'm genuinely curious to know where they've said thisI think it's' dumb but it's absolutely something AH would say in earnestThe fuckin retards
>>569468704>>569468341demo force for detector towers and a few other bot objectives
>>569471603holy fuc,k....this satire...is off the charts!
>>569472118You don't have source for that because the devs never stated that. The devs have stated, on being asked if the factions would work together, that they wouldn't. Because they are ideologically opposed. They do not like each other.>Squids hate bots because bots destroy environments>bots hate squids because squids hate humans>bugs hate both because they get hunted for fuelThis is not up for discussion, you cringe ass larpers with your did nuthin wrong niggatry.>>569472116Its probably the result of consuming whatevers on the planet. Like animals, plants and stuff.
>>569472194Literally just peace
>>569471903>no ones mad at him for anything but failing to make a compelling satire and instead making a badass fascist fantasyThis is why i call him a hackST is a failure as satire and the sequels and secondary media unironically do it better than he didAnd robocop while a pretty good satire on law enforcement, corporate interest corruption, and the police state only really came to be by using Judge Dredd and already existing cyberpunk media as a baseThey're great movies in any case and i love them to death but they're not ground breaking by any means
>>569472194giant orgy
>>569472406>no sourceignored
Wouldn't it be funny if the bots turned on their cyborg masters
>>569472145too cool for swedes, never happening
>>569472406>You don't have source for that because the devs never stated that.Yes they did, in HD1, multiple times.
>>569471276soooource?
>>569472194The Bots build 600 gorillion tanks and 1 quintillion factories, The Squids get mad and tell them to clean up their mess >:(The Bots might unironically do this as utopian commies because they're just that 1 dimensionalThey bots probably bully the bugs for fuel now that they can't blend SE civvies for fuel or whatever their biomass tech works on unless squiggers give them tech (lol, lmao)However bots are functionally immortal and can take the loss of FTL on the chin and go on generational voyages ala necrons because what's 100 years in the face of eternity
>Civie comes around corner>Chainsaw bot closely behind me>Chainsaw bot sees me>It instantly turns aroundThats what I thought, bitch.
>>569472657He has none. Hes making it up because hes a cuck who cant play as the bad guys.
>>569472187That is your head canon fan fiction of the lore and not what would actually happen. I have already explained their actual thoughts on each other and Im not gonna repeat myself, you can just scroll up through the thread. But considering you seem to just mindlessly repeat your fan fiction I doubt you will.>It's not like Bots or Squids actually need their blood as fuel like Super Earth does.They do...Illuminate require fuel for their ships...which they steal from us...the fuel we take from the bugs...without us they'd hunt the bugs.And the bots use space travel like we do, so they hunt the bugs to use as fuel...this is the canon lore.>>569472212Yes. If you want to write your fan fiction, then feel free. But its not going to replace the actual lore.
>>569472787>Anon is so creatively bankrupt hes taking others replies to save face Lol
>>569472787>no U have fanfic>posts no source
>>569472724>Chainsaw bot closely behind the civie*DAMMIT
>>569472724I would rape robutt everyday if I could.
As retarded as some of you guys are, it hurts even more knowing that you're still smarter than the average person.If this conversation happened literally anywhere else, even irlWe would be talking past each other and losing focus literally 20 seconds into this convo
>>569472959Is this one of those AGP things?
>>569473032Wanting to rape robots is a white thing.
>>569472641Then pipe down, because this is about Helldivers 2, not 1.
>>569473089rape is brown
>>569472194cyborgs/automatons run out of fuel from trace amounts of 710 from blended up civilians so they start to enslave/experiment with bugs and soon dark fluid deep into the hive worlds (because dark fluid is required to fire the death star that they have), illuminates start attacking cyborgs since they are part human having a planet busting weapon, illuminate are cut down by former SE civilians now Cyborg converts and have to start subjugating bugs with mind control to bolster what little forces that they have left
>>569472406>Squids hate bots because bots destroy environmentswhere in the source material is it stated that the illuminate specifically care about "the environment"? further, why do bots destroy environments? if your answer is anything other than "for resources in the war against super earth" then you're wrong.>bots hate squids because squids hate humanswhy do squids hate humans? if your answer is anything other than "they explicitly do not intrinsically hate humans, super earth started a war of aggression" then you're wrong.>bugs hate both because they get hunted for fuelwhere in the source material does it claim that anyone besides super earth uses bugs for fuel? you're wrong btw.>>569473092cope. helldivers 2 is a narrative continuation of helldivers (2015)
>>569473180raping living things is brown.raping non-living beings is white because literally nobody gets hurt.
>>569473092NTA but do you not understand how lore works? Although as I say that I do realize that HD2 takes places 100 years after the end of the first galactic war. My stance has always been that SE in the first war are definitely the bad guys but they won and 100 years passed and now everyones chimping out on them. SE in HD2 are not the aggressors and are instead just trying to deal with the sins of their grandfathers.
>>569473180did you forget who did all the colonizing of foreign civilizations in the past
>>569473092COPE
>I like playing as the bad guys/dont careChads>WAHHH NOO WE GOOD NO NO NO NO I CANT BE EVIL NOOOOOVirgins
>>569472721That is what they did in HD1 and do now as well. Becoming a more efficient war machine is prestigious to them. Becoming a vox engine would be, too. There's nothing in the lore that says they WOULDN'T keep going down this path.
>>569473373>Becoming a more efficient war machine is prestigious to themnon-headcanon source?

Butchers are described as the surgeons of cyborg society, responsible for performing cyborgs' augmentations. It is unknown what their peacetime looked like but it is known that the Cyborgs had come to view their cybernetics as a form of ascension from the standard human form. Their military culture however strives for more dangerous cybernetics to overthrow the Federation and combat the Helldivers in an equal footing, having employed separatist soldiers such as the Berserkers and other fellow rebels to fight against the SEAF. >I-IT'S NOT TRUE NOO IT JUST CAN'T BEshow a source that says otherwise.

Yes, SE in Hd1 were the bad guys unambiguously. And everyone SE attacks is the good guys, that isn't up for discussion, but it bears little to the topic at hand, which is HD2. Everyone is a parody of themselves in HD2, SE included. Everyone has become what Super Earth feared. Yes, the factions would live in peace if it was HD1. But this is HD2, and the factions would not live in peace.>>569473261That was the past, this is the present. What was the trait of civilization is now the trait of brown animals and niggers.

https://www.svg.com/1588774/helldivers-confirms-real-bad-guys-super-earth/>Arrowhead CCO Johan Pilestedt recently gave a talk at the Nordic Game conference, during which he got into all kinds of details about the development of "Helldivers 2." Pilestedt gave us a compelling look behind the scenes in his talk, and he also revealed Arrowhead's original vision of what "Helldivers 2" would become. The original pitch for "Helldivers 2" describes it as "a co-op action shooter where players are put in the shoes of the 'evil side' grunts of pop culture. How would you fare as one of the 'extras' in your favorite '80s/'90s action movie? Would you be able to survive a galactic war without plot armor to protect you?" That may not sound like a news flash to some, but it certainly surprised a good number of players.>Super Earth may loudly preach about the benefits of democracy, but according to Pilestedt, the Helldivers are more like "Star Wars" Stormtroopers than intergalactic superheroes. They're not the heroic rebellion; they're expendable invaders who are always getting blown up.
>>569474412delete this
>>569474412>The elevator pitch for "Helldivers 2" explicitly states that the Helldivers are the bad guys of the universe. However, it's a little worse than that, because the Helldivers themselves aren't mustache-twirling villains — they're just the expendable grunts that the real bad guys use to further their interests. If a Helldiver broke their brainwashing and figured out the truth, they'd probably be devastated. Suprisingly enough, a lot of folks missed the satire in the game, including the fact that the blatantly fascist Super Earth isn't on the up-and-up.>For Pilestedt, the "bad guy" framing helps make "Helldivers 2" as hilarious as it is. Much like Arrowhead's commitment to friendly fire, the game's narrative is set up to deliver some darkly comedic moments. In his talk at Nordic Game, Pilestedt recalled a moment in "Star Wars" when a Stormtrooper gets shot by Han Solo while trying to defend the cell blocks on the Death Star. "And that's the question," Pilestedt said, "Would you do better climbing into that room trying to capture the bad guys that are trying to take over your lovely Death Star?">Pilestedt has previously told players that Helldivers have an average life expectancy of two minutes, so it's safe to say that the answer to his question is no, and that's part of the fun. It would be a little harder to laugh at Helldivers being blown to bits on the battlefield if we were also supposed to believe that they were the heroes the galaxy needed. The fact that they're bad guys (without even realizing it) makes every hectic battle or accidental friendly fire incident into a hilarious bit of comeuppance.
This is my favorite cyborg track, I really like the red menace vibehttps://youtu.be/aZ9jR53CBLk?si=hKKsUEMVKghtqil7
>>569474412>they're expendable invaders who are always getting blown up.And by the power of human effort they are not, being the ones blowing up aliens at a 100 : 1 ratio.
>>569474468>Helldivers themselves aren't mustache-twirling villains>If a Helldiver broke their brainwashing and figured out the truth, they'd probably be devastated>The fact that they're bad guys (without even realizing it) makes every hectic battle or accidental friendly fire incident into a hilarious bit of comeuppanceI mean I guess? It's more tragic than comedic if you think about it.
>>569474412In that case their should be a mechanic where you randomly miss regardless kf where your reticle is...considering how fucked this game is it might be a mechanic already
>>569474540I mostly play with music lowered down so I can hear what is going on in the battlefield more, and only hear the music during actual quiet moments. so I can't really appreciate the soundtrack
>>569474725bro, your random spread?
>>569474761random spread?
>>569474761>random spread>crosshair clearly shows where the next bullet will land>every time??????
>Look at something, its loud>turn away, its quietThis has been happening since the patch and its really jarring when a hectic battlefield suddenly turns silent just because I looked behind myself or the DO's speech gets cut off everytime I turn my head
>>569474683lol having empathy for bad guys makes you a bad guybe more media literate next time chud
>>569474540HD2 soundtrack gives me the same feeling as DS3/ER soundtrack does. Really generic orchestral and choirs. The other Swigger co op games mogs HD2 so hard in music like Darktide and Payday 2
>>569474887are you just pretending to be retarded or are you a newfag that didn't experience launch reprimand and epoch?
zero reason for the machete to be so slow
>>569474412>>569474468>piles talking out of his ASSI would be more inclined to accept his narrative if it wasn't in CONSTANT conflict with what the game actually ISproblem is the grunt fantasy never exists you're ALWAYS the trooper in the propaganda vidsIf you're not alone you're guaranteed to rip the enemy a new anus literally all the timeand the only time this is inverse is when you're facing numbers so comical that your valiant death in the face of such opposition is commendable in itselfYou can't even blame all of this on 60 day patch stuffThe game is literally just ground up designed to be a playable propaganda videoNot a milsim by any meansThey can blame it on the cod players all they want but the truth is HD2 was always a conflicted game without a clear direction
>>569474412>>569474468All I'm seeing is why the devs keep intentionally making annoying janky shit that gets you killed like the bile titan that leaps into the air on death like a ballerina to crush you. They find that to be a core gameplay design
>>569474468>>569474412>says all this shit>4 clowns can kill several hundred to a few thousand of the enemy in a missionYup peak storm trooper grunt stuff
If you've played literally any ARMA you can see that piles is kinda bullshitting
>>569475284When is he not? That AMA was a shit show
>>569474964I remember the Reprimands spread being so bad I killed an entire swarm of shriekers with it. I just kinda shot in their direction and they all died.
>>569474412>We want realism!>Lives in fantasy land where good and evil are black and white
It's really frustrating liking this game and seeing how shitty the devs are
>>569475650It's funny they say all that knowing that the capital of this super evil galactic empire is Sweden, Stockholm
>>569475462With the backlash from the ama and the announcement of the progression stuff it feels like they genuinely have no plan at all for the shit they do>OH MY GOD SVEN THEY'RE REVIEW BOMBING>QUICK, CHANGE THE CODE FOR TEAM RELOAD STAT
>>569475284Majority of normalfags fell for the grunt fantasy bullshit they pushed because they don't know how actual mil sim or grunt fantasy shit works. You're on a equal playing ground against enemies in mil sim. Sure they might have better tech or whatever you know for sure they die in the same way you do. I never felt that in HD2 with all the bullshit deaths that are intentionally coded to happen alongside the terrible bias towards enemies while you are stuck with "realism"
>>569475758Playing some of the prairie fire missions and coming back to HD2 is night and dayIt's literally the same scenario just lower tech and it's just so godly to play
lobby doko?
Downloading the HD1 music replacement mod has been the best decision i made about this game
I'll take one for the team.

>>569476419Wait, do people actually believe we're getting something during SGF
Who else here autistic enough to not complain about the jank, and rather, work around it to ensure you finish the mission with 0-1 deaths on D10 every time anyway?
>>569476538No I'm shitposting. If they had anything it'd have been in the sony event.Warbond on June 30th at 11:59pm swedish time.
>>569476569I don't complain and i die 8 times per game.
>>569476629based dontgiveafuckdiver
>>569476569I still dont have D10 but carrying the shit out of D8
>>569476569>There are anons ITT that haven't honed their psy abilities to perceive when and where swede jank deaths will occurWould you like to know more?
>>569476459If you talk to the scientist in Mossdeep Space Center he'll tell you how many rockets have successfully launched. Do that once a week until the count is 100, whereupon he'll offer you the chance to be on the next rocket. Selecting yes will take you to the moon, where you have the opportunity to catch the legendary Pokémon Deoxys.
>>569476878CUTE d8 diver
>>569476878the difference between D8 and D10 is so minimal the condition for losing a mission just basically becomes having shit teammates.Just join the D10 club already.>>569476890same, I swear I have developed some kind of spidey-sense and sometimes I want to let my teammates know they will die in the next 5 seconds and 90% of the time I am right.But I usually don't tell them because it would break the time continuum.
>>569476569I've learned to play around it as if the jank were a part of the gameplay, I don't really complain about it but my resentment for swedes grows a grain at a time.
>>569477000honestly only 20 days is pretty insane

For me it was always cod zombies rumors and shitty fan theoriesIt was kinda fun how they became real as more maps came out and easter eggs got more elaborateWell until like origins/ bo3 when it all became routinereally lost the magic after buried

>>569490587I still can't prove it that liberator penetrator is better than the coyote but I just can feel it!Even if mathematically coyote deals more damage.

>>569490587Always has, DoT sucks dick.
>just let me grab the uhhhhhhhhhhhh
>>569490820that extra 40 rpm of rate of fire sure makes a difference right???Lib pen has 5 more durable damage tho so that might play a role in some cases.
>>569491262Please AH let me fix my gems after I fuck up please
>>569491317It is not "just" 5 more durable damage - that means that the liberator penetrator deals 50% more durable damage than the coyote, which is a massive difference that could be why in practice libpen kills enemies a lot faster than coyote.
Big things happening today, trust the plan
>>569491656Lib pen also just handles better.Coyote feels about as dogshit to shoot as the adjucator.
>>569490587Still mad that AH outright lied about not nerfing it, and Piles just doubled down on the lies. Oh, and they lied about not changing charger legs too.Nuke sweden

So when is this update supposed to be happening. Don't say June 30th. I don't want to wait that long to be disappointed.
>>569493764by the end of the year :)
>>569493583But I thought AH is LGBT-friendly?Are they not our allies??
Helldudes, are we the baddies?
>>569494121>just give up your weapons and shut down your defenses bro>just trust us on not killing you broretard
So we got coomer mods and abdoslop mods.What about mods that make BRAWNYdivers just a bit bigger?Like, imagine fortified commando, but just 20% bigger.I want my beefhead grunt fantasy!
Would you rather be turned into bug shit, become a mindless zombie or be swirled into paste
>>569494398being swirled into paste is probably the quickest death, so probably that one.Unless bugs will rape me first before eating, might be more worth it.

>>569481425instead of aiming it should a faster chainsaw swing to mow down chaff But i dont really have many ideas melee will be a meme now and forever unless they rework the melee system also sweden give a dedicated melee slot no one is giving away the utility of their secondary slot to use a meme saber

>>569499439>>569500608I think the purple kinda matches the chink armor at least because of the gold trim
Give helmet effects and upgradesGive armor passive tinkeringGive cape effects
>>569504008Stealth is actually pretty fun if you're going for a sniper assist kind of setup. Helping out teammates that are stuck behind cover by thinning the herd a little. You're right on it being a mostly solo fag kind of setup though
>>569504008Full stealth squad is fun, especially outside the commando missions

>>569493093>Oh, and they lied about not changing charger legs too.disingenuous shitstirring retard. that first quote is from the patch 1 month after release that changed the chargers head to be one-shottable by heavy AT. That patch did not change the chargers legs at all.the second half of that image is a change that was implemented during the 60 day patch SIX fucking months later as part of the ENTIRE HEAVY HP REBALANCE. Deciding six months later to rebalance heavy HP across the board in response to player outrage over behemoths is not them LYING about "not changing the charger legs" in a patch six fucking months prior beofre they even fucking buffed behemoths, you lying dumb fuck
oh oh swigger subhuman melty

>>569509257arrowhead has done a lot of retarded shit and they have wormed their way around a lot of issues but shit on them for things they actually did instead of trying to weave a narrative that never happened. If someone can so easily prove you're just seething for the sake of seething it's easy to write off your dumb shit and anything else you say no matter how legitimate because it's clear you just have an axe to grind and will say anything to make them look worseseethe at real shit so people can't spend 2 minutes looking at patch dates and see you're just trying to manufacture outrage like some slimy fucking news media """"""journalist""""""" pushing an agenda
>>569509627i feel no need to obsessively research over patch dates when sweden's quality control is so absymal to begin with it is far more likely they fucked something up with an undocumented change

>>569512307motherfucker, the swigger has literally been caught pausing the fucking game and cheating when things didnt go according to his plans, and you are unironically complaining about the niveau of his gm actions lol.

incendiary devastator surge is kinda anemic desu. game needs heavies and game needs heavies to be dangerous
A Half-Life 2 hot rebar crossbow would heal me
>>569515789automaton tanks are such undewhelming pieces of shit I really wish they'd rework tanks in general (Both the bastion and enemy tanks) to have a better damage model instead of just shooting in in the turret with an AT weapon once to kill it. You should be able to dislodge the tracks or blow out the engine.
>>569512967>>569513189basically a huge portion of the playerbase started to spam d1 missions and the swiggers put a pause on the entire war for 24 hourshttps://arch.b4k.dev/vg/thread/515920291/#515920291
>>569488775The Listâ„¢
>>569512693>>569516726There was also outright cheating.
>>569516942i wonder what happaned to the list fag it has been quite sometime i've seen some one posting the list
any lobbies?
>>569516726These threads used to be so much more lively
>>569517336nyoded gaem
>>569516726>>569517202lol wtf. I kneel, chinaGODs
>>569517407aww
They should give out more free stratagems but make em the least picked ones so people have a chance to play with emLike the grenade emplacement and commando
>>569516726>basically a huge portion of the playerbase started to spam d1 missionsit was china cheating missions complete, not fucking a dozen retards thinking them spamming D1 missions actually changes progress to any fucking degree
>>569517981the argument is this:>d1 missions give 2-3 squad impact. You can clear 15-20 d1 missions in an hour, which translates to 30-60 individual squad impact in an hour. 1000 players doing this would mean 30000-60000 damage to planet health, so 3 6%. Say we have 5000 players doing it, planets would be liberated at a rate of 15-30% per hour, by those players alone. Compare it to around 20 squad impact for the entired squad after almost 2 hours of full clearing maps. I can do 2-3 d1 missions on my own and I will have contributed more to the Galactic War than taking part in a 15 star d10 operation. I am d1ving. Are (you)?
I'd use grenadier emplacement more than hmg on defense if it actually landed consistently with the way you're facing honestly you should be able to walk to either side and rotate it manually
Concerning.
>>56947020241% is my bet.
>>569518627What is currently the optimal way to generate most of impact? Did someone made some reverse engineer calculation for that?Is there enough difference between D7/8/9/10 to justify taking higher/st difficulty?Or it won't matter because GMs are fucking hacks?
>>569518627>1000 players doing this would meastop right there. yes the math works but you're not getting 100 players doing this let alone 1000. there's was no concentrated mass effort to spam D1's by tens of thousands of fucking players. there just wasn't.
>>569474375why do yall hate ex mormans so much? what happened to forgiveness and shit?
>acshually it was just a bunch of fags spamming lowest difficulty missions and not china being dirty cheating scumbagsThe lengths you disgusting creatures will go to to avoid having to admit you cheated.
They unironically need to make liberation leaderboards for each campaign with a special SC reward (or cosmetic) and you'll see those planet liberations go up real fucking quick
>>569474739yaint missing anything. i prefer to dive while listening to the venga boys. we like to party.
>>569519290>What is currently the optimal way to generate most of impact?it would probably be completing a d10 operation and on the last operation (in this case eradicate as it has an indefinite pelican) and kick your teammates so they split into their own lobby which multiplies the liberation. then you call down an sos and you start kicking people who get close to the pelican so they add liberation of the three d10 missions in their lobbies by boarding the pelican
>>569519290it really doesn't matter unless thousands of people are doing it which is why the entire galactic war is a retarded farce to begin with. if your game's number war requires 80% of the game's active players to all do the same thing it isn't going to work.also the GM's are hacks.
>>569477000Well i know whats going to happen on day 21.

>>569518937what exactly is wrong with this
>>5695193521000 out of 50,000~ at the time is not impossibleand the 1000 become more influential the less players play which causes the galactic impact modifier to rise with it

>>569516537You can blow out the tracks. It doesn't destroy the tank, but it does basically turn it into a stationary emplacement. Also, the plate on the back covering the engine was medium pen, so you could slip behind it and unload into it to destroy the tank while ignoring the heat sinks. This was most useful against Shredder tanks whose turret traversal was too fast to make the heat sinks easily accessible. This was recently patched to require heavy pen iirc. Wasn't a huge fan of that, but oh well. >>569475103The propaganda unironically works for you because that's the part you see, and you set your analytical end posts early enough that is all you see. If you continue the analysis:>Where did each of these people come from? Why are they here? Why hasn't there been a leak? What makes this possible? Why only 4 instead of 20 guys at once? All these "forbidden" questions are the meat of the satirical bit. If you only scratch the surface, you're unironically playing the part of the victim that HD's entire governmental architecture is built to prey on. If you start scratching at the depths, you're harboring dissident thoughts by en-media-res defintion. The thing that terrifies me, is the fact that a blueprint or thing to aspire to has been shit out for some subpopulation of autocratically inclined retards to chase claiming "it might work!" There aren't many technical hurdles to be overcome to realize most of the "Managed Democracy" construction kit today.

>>569538514i'm sorry. not seeing the left side of the skull is evidence that you're going to go perma blind soon
>>569538514If you can't see the left side you have a vision impairment that's manifesting in your brain. Very common condition and that's why game developers do this kind of brightness test, it helps flag people for the various optometrist societies

>>569573093anytime anonapes together strong
>>569571237>Why not just download a script that randomly disconnects your mouse and keyboard at that point?because getting ragdolled from explosions isn't random. 90% of the time you can see it coming and the for the other 10% you don't see because the enemy got a drop on you or you were not expecting them they still have a discrete cause rather than being some shit that just happens out of nowhere
>>569573408>because getting ragdolled from explosions isn't randomOkay, change the script to disconnect your m&kb when you click a new link. Try it. I'm sure you'll get a real kick out of it. You seem very easily amused.

>>569573875Helldivers has this unique underclass of players who hopped on after the 60-day buff changes but still operate as if we're in the trenches of the early nerfdivers meta.It produces a player who's convinced they're playing dark souls while losing all their reinforcements on mindless asses.

Why can't people agree on if 500KG bomb is good? Also, I like using OPS. You can use it as a combo with Eagle Strafing run to kill Bile Titans pretty easily.>>569589037110's should probably be stronger, but I do enjoy using it on the bug front to deal with chargers. Sometimes they survive, but if you bring something with heavy pen like an autocannon or a grenade you can finish them off.
>>569589174A single 500kg is unreliable trash, but you get two so it doesn't matter>You can use it as a combo with Eagle Strafing run to kill Bile Titans pretty easily.Or pick EATs, Leveller, RR, QC, save up a slot, and kill BTs even more easily
>>569589597If you bring EATs you have to call in the weapon and then drop any support weapon you had before. Taking the RR and QC stops you from taking a different support weapon. The OPS + Strafing run combo gives you two versatile stratagems that can deal with objectives and hordes along side dealing with bile titans. It's not good enough against Bile Titans to deal with all of them alone, but if your teammates bring some antitank of their own you should be able to handle them together.
>>569590051>If you bring EATs you have to call in the weapon and then drop any support weapon you had before"If you bring 500kgs you have to stop what you're doing, type in the code and aim for the enemy"That's how retarded you sound"Having two stratagems to do the work of a single one that gets off CD every 60 seconds is a good thing"Yes, that's how retarded you sound
>>569589174500kg is inconsistent and that's the worst issue it has. It would be good if you could rely on the direct or close hit to kill the bile titan next to it, but you can't and for the cooldown and use limit (per eagle reload) that is fucking pathetic.
>>569590051can you post your hours?just curious
>It's a "absolute niggerfaggot troll runs 3 mines and a jump pack on bots:flags and throws all the mines on the flag and losses the team the mission with 9+ accidentals by the end" episode.I really don't get why this game attracts faggots of this level as often as it does, but my blocklist is easily on 4 pages by now.

>>569590567You're so smart bro
>>569589174>>569589597>>569590305>https://www.reddit.com/r/Helldivers/comments/1thbclj/500kg_and_other_bombs_only_deals_3050_intended/>tl dr: the game calculates direct hit damage from bombs through speed instead of a preset speed like everything else. this means the 500kg will always have significantly reduced damage than intended because the game will always treat it as "moving too slow"The reason why 500kg is so inconsistent is because its affected by 2 major issues/bugs. The first is old, retarded velocity thing heavily reducing the damage. Remember how AT launchers required you to dive forward to get the extra damage? Its the same issue here but its even worse now. The 2nd issue is that the 500kg blast radius is absorbed by "hard terrain" aka anything that cannot be deformed aka the areas around objectives or roads in cities. As >pic related shows, this is why sometimes you can survive a 500kg up close because there's hard terrain somewhere absorbing the fucking blast radius.
>>569590270I also bring EATs sometimes. I'm not insulting your character. When I bring EATs with me, it's more of a consideration where I throw the ball so that I can grab it quickly without the hellpod getting swarmed. With the OPS + Strafing run combo, I just need to get a good throw under the bile titan and then one in front of it. In a lot of situations this just feels more fun for me. If you don't think it is, that's fine. I should clarify, bringing EATs would be better for dealing with bile titans, but the orbital precision strike and strafing run can also be used for other things.>>569590316268 hours. I could play with more optimal loadouts, but the game is too easy for that to be fun.
>>569590937I hate swedes so much bros it's unrealInstead of just functional weapons lets over complicate the FUCK out of it so that it's only really ever cool once in a blue moon when everything lines up
>>569590937>>569591158Ermmm realistic milisim, bro
>>569590937Making a bubble of damage is so hard... please understand... we hear you...
>Settle down, bro. That lit dynamite wont hurt anyone, its not moving!Is the type of shit the Swedes are taught when theyre conscripts?
>>569590937Hard terrain constraining the blast radius of a bomb that explodes on the ground instead of airburst is precisely how it should work. The problem is it is hardly buried in the ground, the blast shouldn't be as constrained as it is.
>>569591474Unironically yes. Conscripts are hated by the mass majority of militarizes because who would've thought, forcing people who don't want to be there is a shit idea. This is why they are always trained wrong and given shitty equipment because they won't be there long enough for the consequences to matter.
