>Previous>>527434024>WHAT IS HELLDIVERS 2?HELLDIVERS 2 is a 2024 co-op, squad-based, PvE 3rd person shooter for PC and PS5 where players fight against hordes of alien insects, robots and squids to Spread Democracy. Players wage war on a number of contested planets, each with a different environment, completing as many objectives as possible within a procedurally generated area while constrained by a time limit. With enough successful operations a planet can be completely liberated, and the player base must cooperate to try to liberate the entire galaxy by focusing and combining their efforts as much as possible.

>WHAT ABOUT THE FIRST HELLDIVERS GAME?Released in 2015 for PC, PS3/4 and PS Vita, the original HELLDIVERS is the origin of the setting and basic gameplay formula of HELLDIVERS 2. The major difference is that HELLDIVERS is a top-down shooter, its mechanics being based primarily on Arrowhead's first game Magicka.

>>527498915 (OP)game would be better if the Libpen dealt 45 damaga again
>meanwhile, in the future
>>527498925Just think it needs a second longer stun. Stagger from shit like the libconc honestly out classes it. (And feels a lot beefier.)
Or maybe just needs some more magic gun juice to feel a little better.
Something about it just doesn't tickle me right like the other guns. Maybe it could just use more stagger.
>>527498925Pacifier is bugged to deal 2x as much stun when playing as a group opposed to the intended amount when playing solo. Recently maxed it and it's lack of stagger force makes it horrible at the job it's supposed to do, pummeler or lib concussive shit all over it.
>>527499019For me it's gonna be shit like fletchette rounds, and rikochett.
Just wanna get a shotgun n slap out some beefy molton lead that rips right through enemies.
>>527498703Absolutely, before the new arc dog I was running gas dog on predators quite a bit. Seeing predators beat the shit out of each other while trying to chase me is really satisfying.

Whats the verdict on the police brutality warbond?
>>527499218Shit primary, needs a drum mag
Decent GL, bugged to deal near 2x damage when playing in a group though
Fantastic backpack
niche grenade
7/10 overall
>>527498541So you want the Crescent Overseer's weapon but Helldiverified
You pretty much just described the fuel rod cannon
>>527499218Second best release warbond after the cowboy pack.
The primary is ok, and the pistol is serviceable. But for me I'd say the rest of the pack is perfect.
New grenade launcher feels on par with the autocannon.
>>527499120I'm aware. Still a cool gun. It'll be patched and a staple gun for a long time to come, at least on anything non bug. The guns you named have crippled effective range thanks to light pen and the SMG meme category that's really just ARs with more falloff.
>>527499384why do you have a stick
>>527499396I have never played a halo game, so I don't know what the fuel rod cannon is.
>>527499396Why aren't there any rapeable female overseers on the frontlines? These so-called illuminate are not nearly as enlightened as they think.
>>527499384Man, I think the best thing they did for this game was make it so all the support weapons are innefficient at killing heavies compared to rockets. But you can do it. And getting all your teammates to shoot a bile titans works great, and feels stupidly cathartic.
(I think that's what illuminate is missing for me.)
Sick webm
multiple terrible games in a row where shitters desperate to level up weapons show up in D10s, and can't handle basic chaff troops.
10+ reinforcements lost in the first three or four minutes.
This fucking sucks
>>527499548Point and laugh at the zoomer
>>527499384That fucker literally dropped in!
When did bugs get drop ships!?
>>527499670Predator Strain Pouncer Titan.
>>527499601I'm a 30 year old boomer. I never played a cawadooty game either. I was too busy playing BF2142 in high school and assorted sovlful source mods in college.
>>527499218Pacifier is great other than the damage rating, but it'll be fine after a modest buff to it, don't listen to the retards that want to slap drum mags on everything.
The new armors look great, the new perk is absolutely amazing and meta if you go into lobbies without vitality booster.
The GL is a bit weird, a lot of reload and aoe damage is merely decent, but those grenades rip apart shit on impact it's pretty insane.
I like the skins holy shit they look fantastic, the logo too.
I wouldn't waste my time with the booster or the grenades on anything but defense missions. The booster is firepods with ragdoll+stun instead of burning, the grenades don't stun heavies which they should.
Overall a 7/10. Far from perfect but worth your 1k goy slips.
>>527499709Ah, so you only played bad games.
Why does stagger just feel more satisfying than stun?
like punisher, lib conc, auto cannon, bushwacka (with all barrels).
When are we getting a support shotty.
Hell when are we getting that double barrel.
>>527499549They've all already "Embraced Democracy" if you get my meaning
Why do you think all those illumicels are so mad at us?
>>527499702Oh please, watching people howl and gnash their teeth at regular predator strains, this would have them threatening to quit.
>>527499218It's shit
the armor it the only decent thing in there
>>527499702Predator strain impaler: An impaler, but he's invisible.
>>527499818Stagger is instant and easy to spread among multiple targets while pushing them back
Stun requires build up and chews through ammo while holding them in place, if you try to stun 2 p stalkers at once, by the time you stun the second stalker the first one will already have recovered and is back in your face.
>>527499761>The booster is firepods with ragdoll+stun instead of burning, the grenades don't stun heavies which they should.Booster is solid if you stack greens and use mines. I stagger my greens on bug drops and basically have an orbital EMS bombardment. Then it kersplodes with all the mines setting off.
It's niche, but it's a fun niche booster.
Urchin stuns lesser heavies. It also stuns in an AOE. It's gonna be glued onto me for a while. I totally get people not liking it, but the versatility of stunning chaff and locking down heavies is almost always worth more to me than thermite or napalm grenades alone. I just think it's fun getting an urchin around a corner and watching the pile up of enemies. Just to finish em all off with the torcher.
I just really like shit that rewards me for planning and enables me to shoot my gun more.

>>527499596Sorry to hear that dude.
Hope your games get better, and you find some good buddies to play with.
>>527499384being the one in the middle was cinematic as fuck, i wish i could drop a clip
>>527499218Whole kit is good, one of the bettee warbonds
>>527500030I like the idea of an invisible Predator Charger because it's funnier. Predator Impalers could be super-aggresive and stab you with their tentacles directly instead of digging them into the ground, making the forehead weakspot that much harder to attack.
>>527500037I just think there's something better about the stagger animation and sound. Like stunning a charger you hear it grunt and flinch, and each time you stagger it it slows down a little bit more before stopping.
Just feels good. Stun guns are flashy but don't got that beefy stagger feel.
>>527499218Everything good about the weapons is caused by unintentional bugs and are thus almost certainly going to be turned into the dogshit they always intended when their "fixed". And if they don't buff them when they do so, or make the bugs "features" like they did with the siege ready armor, then that's all we're going to be left with: Dogshit.
The Armor is okay I guess, even if the medium and light models should be switched.
>>527500293Yeah, hope you have a good night.
>>527499156I want stun rounds on more of my guns
>>527499218Literally dont need anything but the pacifier and shock gl to obliterate D10
>>527499702Redditors and /hdg/ would seethe for years if they did that.
>>527500227I feel like the predator strain is a lot about high alpha, and singling out players.
Think the predator impaler would probably just be a really aggressive tentacle thatd go after the player furthest from the group. Knock em down and knock em away from the rest of the team. N just keep doing that for people in the group.

I think the new GL sorta nails how support weapons should feel. Rare, beefy. Long reloads. You have a time and a place for it, and your primary does the rest of the work for you.
Maybe not all support weapons should stick to this, but for me it feels satisfying having the right tool do its job at the right time. That and banking shots off walls so my team doesn't get zapped.
Oh and killing biletitans with side shots. Fuck man, I wanna use it more.

>>527502407I think the funniest thing about the set is that the people that hate it just don't have friends. Because the weapons perform dramatically better due to the lobby glitch.
What's the fucking deal with the Urchin? Its AoE is hugging the enemy straight up, it has trouble sticking to whatever you're throwing it at, and mainly works on just one enemy.
What keeps me from using Stun Nades or Gas over the Urchin? Aside from not having the Warbonds for them.

>>527497369ggz, more coming when i wake up kek
I think the eruptor got a stealth nerf last patch, it reacts WAY more to flinching and rapid fire. Out of like 5 shots before, if you were firing as rapidly as possible, maybe one or two would miss by angles of 10 degrees or so, now it's like 3 shots will miss, 2 guaranteed, and they miss by a much larger margin, hitting ground or missing very high and to the sides. Giving unflinching a try since that got buffed.
>>527502753heres how to improve it
>make it shock nearby targets with love-taps similar to a blitzer, but with like 10% of the initial damage from itthere done.
AH, wheres my job position as supreme QA playtester?
>>527503450It doesn't keep the same point when you aim. I noticed my shots were missing because normally aim would stay in one place but now it sways to the sides meaning every shot requires correction.

>>527503606Wouldn't worry about it anon
>>527503769Yeah that's how they differ. Urchins lock down shit that travels at you in a straight line. (Like 99% of the enemies).
Gas grenades disorients and disperses enemies.
>>527502923no, but they should

>>527504784Might have its damage lowered each time it arcs. No clue honestly. Does shred bile titans though
So I'm curious about the de-escalator, been enjoying it a lot, but I've heard it's bugged so that it does more damage in a squad and less in solo. What I'm wondering is which one represents what it's actually supposed to perform like? Is it supposed to perform like it does in solo and the bug is playing in a squad makes it more powerful, or is it the opposite and in a squad is how it's supposed to perform and the bug is making it weaker in solo?
Like I said, enjoying it, worried that they might nerf it to being ass like how it apparently performs in solo.

How am I meant to make the flamethrower + hover pack combo work? Half the time it sets me on fire and if a bile titan / charger spawns it just does cartwheels underneath me waiting for me to fall down and eat me.
>>527505518I don't even mind the friendly fire, it's just not doing a lot of dps. Inherited arc thrower's shittiness kinda.
>>527505563>How am I meant to make the flamethrower + hover pack combo work?you arent.
>>527505518Luckily gas weapons don't need 'em.
>>527505518>george droyd warbond that comes with arc dog doesnt come with arc armorgas and fire at least have those armors, except its still jewish if you buy the servants of freedumb and try to use the dickle without the fire retardation armor.
and what the fuck is a medic pistol doing in a gas-themed warbond anyway?
How do fix the defender? It feels pretty bad to use compared to the base liberator and it being one handed doesnt feel like it does enough to justify the downsides like increased sway, lower durable damage, and damage drop off.
>>527505518Issue isn't team kills. It's how badly it's performs. Firerate is shit. Accuracy is bad. Most of times it doesn't arc. Regular guard dog kills enemies way faster. Gas dog stops enemies faster and it's way better.
If it was blizer style and slightly faster. It would be good at keeping enemies from rushing you.
>>527505518>kills friendlies>ESL illeterate immediatly assumes it kills the poster>also your team should all switch to the arc armor solely because one nigger in the team decided to use one specific stratagem
>>527505606Arc thrower is more reliable. It's better to take arc thrower guard dog than k9.
>>527505754you will buy every warbond for the single viable item in it and you will be happy that each item only works when supported with an item from another bond.
>>527505754I don't question it, I'm just happy it's there because otherwise we'd be waiting years for a medic warbond with a syringe gun and nothing else of substance in it.
>>527504760Yes, and that's a problem.

>>527506168Because a multiplayer game that makes it mandatory to have 1 more retard in your squad to do anything worthwhile, is likely gonna die out or have a tiny community that plays it.
Some people just want to play solo because of autism or to 'prove themself' AKA half of you niggers screaming about "ok now do it solo"
Some people dont have a group to play with.
Other times, you go into a public lobby, and now imagine having to tardwrangle a bunch of idiots just to get 1 mission done, because little Timmy knows only 2 things - how to shoot the eruptor, and 500kg bomb.
Now imagine if support weapons REQUIRED you to have a diver be glued to your ass, just to reload it. You're essentially determining the effectiveness of one weapon purely off the competence of whatever retard has the backpack, or the weapon.

For bugs it really needs supply pack, but so many other primaries paired with supply pack are great anyway.

I would argue the game is only as co-op as you make it to be and this is fine. HD1 suffered from one big issue which was forced single perspective for entire team, it was top down shooter but the screen area was small which was infuriating. Being free from that is nice.
What HD2 needs is more variety in objectives and return of the resource train delivery. Entire team would have to take care of the train with the sheer amount of enemies HD2 throws on you.

Or does you having a fully upgraded destroyer mean no one else in the whole wide worlds needs to "waste time" collecting them?
>can't take a screenshot while doing literally anything
Frustrating.
Is there any way to make a input count for "more" than others?
I want to be able to take screenshots while sprinting for instance.
>>527507989I don't have a fully upgraded destroyer, all the upgrades are too miniscule to really matter, I got 2 or 3 from each category and have no plans on getting anything more.
>>527507989nta, but I dont bother picking up samples because nobody asks me to. if you're picking up samples, thats fine, whatever. I just wanna shoot things.
yes, i refuse to pick up samples until im asked to do so, because i wanna force retards to communicate. dont expect everyone to do everything for you. maybe if you ask "hey guys you mind helping me with collecting samples?", that'd be a LOT better than "are you guys retarded why are you running past samples"
SURPRISINGLY, if you ask other people nicely, they're more likely to help you out.

That guy did nothing wrong.

you donate shit to the DSS for the orbital blockade, theyre gonna throw it on anything but the planet that the invasion is coming from
you donate shit to help the defense, theyre gonna send it to a planet that needs liberation

>>527509464No, the current (for like a year now) IFV has had it's turret removed. Nothing has changed otherwise. I don't know why it was done but that turret was the last piece that wasn't completed on the IFV.
Now you can argue we'll get APC without the turret and IFV with it, but it would be the laziest shit ever since the model is the same and the guy who would otherwise operate the turret does nothing.
if I had the option to be a dissident and actively hamper MO progress I'd do it without hesitation
>>527509440The orbital blockade is useless because it doesn't stop an ongoing attack. If you put the blockade on a planet, Joel can just start an invasion on another planet when it's the most convenient for it. Really it's just only good for a free 380 barrage.

>you seem to not understand how firearms work in reality?????
The eruptor gyrojet moves at fucking 180m/s
an IRL 7.62 round moves at ~800m/s
The fucking DCS bullet ingame moves at 900m/s
>>527530820Brother. That is a support weapon that uses a fucking reflex sight
>>527530973Support weapon but yes, it's the closest thing to what I want.
>>527531218what
I'm answering fuckers telling me that the ERUPTOR is a substitute for a marksman/sniper rifle
what "army stuff" knowledge am I flexing, exactly?

>>527531601it really is insane how much borderline plagerism there is in this game
Laser sniper rifle, but it's med pen and takes a split second to spool up like the sickle + scythe. Thoughts

Man. I didn't remember it being this bad.
>>527530772>>527530973AMR is strong but it's not a marksman rifle. It has bad ergo, kicks back like crazy, it might have insane fire rate but otherwise it's the gun you ideally wanna sit or lay down to fire, undisturbed, and dish out that massive 450 damage per round rapidly at a bot base or incoming drop. DMRs are more for clearing out nasty chaff like zerkers and devs before they see/shoot you, countersniping MG nests, and spotting big targets for the AT gods to launch into space. Just google designated marksman role.
>>527529531AMR has been in the game since launch.
>>527531995copout version: primary Talon with 165 damage medium pen and no mods besides scope options
>>527531995outclassed by the Accelerator Rifle in every possible way
>>527532020You don't realize how stupid the average pubbie is until you play with them after only playing with /hdg/ for a while
>>527532218i would settle for this
>>527532225except for its godawful ammo economy
>>527532050>clearing out nasty chaff like zerkers and devs before they see/shoot you, countersniping MG nests, and spotting big targets for the AT gods to launch into spaceexactly what the AMR excels at
sounds like your little twink tranny hands can't handle an actual sniper rifle and you need a plastic-frame 5.56 peashooter (but it has to be heavy pen), that has no recoil.
>>527532218That's just sounds like a dcs with infinite ammo
>piss soldier outfit is super cool
>gas resistance is almost useless
>>527532304>have been playing the game almost always with friends or /hdg/>mfw i play with randomsSome of them are actually top tier lads. But damn, most of them are jeet tier.
>>527532510Speak for yourself I live in the brap at all times
>>527531872actually would be incredibly kino
put a scope on it and I'm sold on it as a primary
>>527531995What damage are you thinking? I figured it's got to be more than the DCS if it has to spool up. Maybe Deadeye level? 300 or so? Might still feel a bit bad though, since you'll have to constantly spool up before every shot, unlike most other laser weapons where you only spool once and keep firing.
>>527532050>it's the gun you ideally wanna sit or lay down to fire, undisturbed, and dish out that massive 450 damage per round rapidly at a bot base or incoming drop.nigger you have a lever action that does 300 damage and can do exactly what you just described.
the dcs has less damage but can do the same fucking thing
the cs has AP2 but that doesnt fucking matter when you're using a MARKSMAN rifle that DEMANDS aiming, therefore you can clearly shoot enemy weakspots
amendment can also be used to magdump shit at closer ranges
all i hear is you being a little bitch that refuses to use the AMR because "erhm it doesnt fit my autistic headcanon on what a weapon is supposed to be"
>>527532406nah mate AMR is overkill for zerkers and devs, you absolutely do not need it, those are chaff enemies that yield to even the weakest primaries if fired well
expert AMR guy removes shitloads of hulks, tanks, turrets, semi-heavy to heavy targets
the horn should be louder and the car should make louder vrooms
>Railgun still doesn't have 4x/sniper scope

>>527532708>overkilla dead enemy is a dead enemy.
>>527532684Deadeye is strong enough as it is yeah but DCS would not be terribly overpowered if it got an ap4 ammo kit
Bug niggers are gonna be forced to dive on preds
>>527532693>no reinforcements>34 min leftMan even throwing myself at mines i could not manage that
>>527532916it's also a waste if you use a gun that does 300% of the damage you needed
>>527531995Like an extremely overclocked Scythe that can overheat quickly, but has very high DPS?
>>527532898It does, but only with insignificant shit like troopers i think.
>>527532693Desu intentionally wiping out your reinforces as soon as you land then doing the rest of the mission with only one life sounds like a fun challenge
if you ping a bile titan because you brought no AT it's a insta kick
>>527533197how is it a waste?
a dead enemy is a dead enemy.

>>527533308So it doesn't,. The Warrant does, for some reason
steam://joinlobby/553850/109775240982047157/76561198055931055
Democracy decides
>>527533524The Warrant is all sorts of fucked. It goes through hulks.
>>527532621Around about the same damage as the Deadeye, yeah.
At first I thought it should only have to warm up for the initial shot and after that you could keep firing it with no delay but I think having a windup before every shot sounds cooler and more impactful than being able to spray it.
>>527533373nta, but their point refers to the AMR itself not the RR
zerkers and devs are easy enough to kill with your primary, that you wanna reserve your AMR ammo for other targets like hulks or fortress turrets.
which doesnt fucking matter because every AMtRanny uses resupply pack anyway, due to only getting 1 magazine back from ammo boxes.
>>527533360I'm simply pinging it to raise awareness. if you would like to take it out with your AT be my guest
>berserker steps up a sheer 6ft wall to slap you
>berserker walks through a rock formation to slap you
FACT: the equipment and strategems you can get at level one (1) are literally all you need to clear any given D10 mission
>>527533373Yeah RR is a victim of its own power. It is quite often dead weight in combat. The "lesser" AT stratagems can onetap everything smaller than a factory strider. RR is built to pop annihilator turrets from a distance. For killing enemies I really recommend something lighter with lower opportunity cost. Or the ABRL, it'll take out any heavy including titans and striders while also shredding everything around them.
>>527532621>Might still feel a bit bad though, since you'll have to constantly spool up before every shot, unlike most other laser weapons where you only spool once and keep firing.could just make it like the sickle where it has a 1.5 second delay before it starts cooling where in you can fire it again without needing the spool back up
I want this, or a quad ATV, in the game. It would be great to drive around in a more nimble vehicle.
>>527533714I feel like level 1s should get the EAT from the beginning
if they can add meme shit like the car, flag, they can add a forklift.
>>527533624nta, but you don't need resupply pack if you are not a solonigger, and have normal teammates that don't call in resupplies in the most abandoned corner of the map.

But they'll never do that, because it doesn't fit their sense of 'tactical sim-lite' bullshit.
>>527535741Dogs get shot? I've never actually noticed. I know they return to my back to reload or cool down

is it normal to have to clear 20+ bile titans to make it through one mega-nest?
>>527541718I would agree if the max difficulty was any different from D5
>>527541023predators are very easy, you just have to shoot your gun.
>>527541775No. If this happens, it means some retard triggered the titan bug hole and left without destroying it.
>>527541775it's normal if you don't destroy the big hole in the mega nest with orbitals/airstrikes/500s/ultimatums/hellpod/reinforce
it will keep shitting out titans faster than you can take them down

>>527541023Scythe > Diligence
>>527541791Yes, D11 should be pre-nerf EoF D9/D10
>>527541023they should stop making warbonds for a year and work on literally anything else.
>muh difficulty
The only thing that's required is to up the maximum amount of enemies allowed in a single mission.
But the engine can't handle it, so we're fuggered.
sorry for alr-f4'ing. gf aggro
>>527542003They should make warbonds focused purely on giving you more armor, more weapons, more stratagems (yeah right) or more cosmetics.
I'd rather pay 1000 SC for a warbond that gives me 6 more guns, even if they're mediocre, instead of "uhhh heres like one primary, a secondary, a grenade and some armor i guess lol"

The Swedes are way too fucking slow and the quality of the content they do release has reached rock bottom.

>>527503450>>527503564>I think the eruptor got a stealth nerf last patch, it reacts WAY more to flinching and rapid fireI've got a schizo theory that I haven't verified. Someone in one of these threads was claiming that swedecode introduced a bug in the code where your character suffers from worse shot dispersion and extra sway when you are out of stamina. Allegedly the swedes somehow managed to tie everyone's aim to the host's stamina. So if the host if flailing around in the middle of a bug breach like a young athlete dying suddenly from his fauci ouchie, then everyone else in the squad is having their aim fucked up by the stamina sway. This is felt most by weapons like the eruptor that are heavily penalized by missing your shots.
Anecdotally aiming down sights in first person behaves as normal. It's just obnoxious when you should be able to make some textbook simple shots in third person ADS.

The entire fucking office will completely shut down in the summer while everyone goes on vacation at the same time. Then the office will completely shut down in the winter due to bad weather. They'll have some mid-season breaks during the spring and fall where they either lament the end of summer or celebrate the end of winter, and then after each break they need a week or two or three to get back into the swing of things and recover from their vacations.

I think that every single one of the objectives in bug megacities should be hardened to the point where hellbombs are needed to take them out. It is pants on head retarded that one guy with an autocannon can complete all of the mission objectives in ~3 minutes.

But pubbies keep calling them down directly on their own dicks like this is team fortress 2.
Then pubbies get pissed off when you destroy their sentry after it rips R4 in half and deletes 80% of your healthbar. If you can't find a good place to put a sentry, then at least throw it 50m away from the group.

>>527547675>>527546138>>527545346Also consider the city extraction points. They are one of the most trivial places to safely place sentries around. Simply put the sentries down in the streets or on the lower platforms while the helldivers occupy the upper landing pad. It's basically impossible for the sentries to friendly fire teammates when the helldivers are on the upper platform, and all of the sentries are down below. But then some chucklefuck will place a gatling on the upper platform where it will rip someone in half the moment that it feels like spinning 180

Turrets are obviously a noober 'gem. Unless you're playing with bad players and you need to metaslave to get by, you should avoid the crutch picks.
>>527547831>place turret in position you can cover it, all it needs is 180 degrees of vision if you’re in an intersection, give it less directions to worry about >make sure your own back is clear, or that if there’s somewhere behind you that’s vulnerable, the turret won’t have to sweep you to shoot thereTLDR side pocket them or set and forget them in an intersection behind you as you move on to soak aggro. Shrimple as that unless you want make a dissertation on each particular map portion.
>>527548473Nigga they tell you to go prone not crouch
>>527548806whats prone for $1000 please
>>527548921>it's the reading comprehension lacking retard againWhat is C for $100?
>>527548819Man, I just like using the rocket sentry on bots because it covers me and I don't need to be worried about getting shot in the back of the head
>>527548458You just need to put them where they're not going to flag people. Only the rocket and AC sentries need any level of babysitting since they shit their pants if anything gets into melee. MG and gatling sentries will fuck shit up unless it's a charger or above. Behind the team is the worst place. Behind the enemy can work if you can put it there, but you want it to be more like behind them at the 2 o'clock or 10 o'clock positions instead of directly behind them so you're not as likely to be in the crossfire when it engages the bugs.
Turrets are ultimately disposable, so it doesn't matter if a large chunk of bugs manages to overwhelm one that was tossed off. It still accomplished its mission and kept bugs off your back by drawing aggro away from you.
>>527506987There could be ways to make game more team focused without killing solo play.
Common is to buffs when more people are together.
But we don't have buff or positive gear other than stim pistol, supplyback and forcefield. There is no radio equipment. Everyone has radar and resupply. Game isn't trying to be team based. Other than throwing so many enemies at you.
>>527507647Game can rarely deliver enough enemies. Becouse engine/PS/servers can't handle it. Most of time issues arise only when everyone has meme loadout and fucks around too much.
Just today I wranglered level 18 in d8 who just didn't use sos beacon. He died 10 times. I died 0 times. Still I managed to push him through it becouse I actually had functional layout. But if there was just 20% more enemies. Then it would be diffrent situation. You would need actual people who can fight.
>>527537280No more supercredits on the map.
You gain a small amount of supercredits for completing operations, that scales with difficulty to prevent farming.
You get 10SC per operation at D10.

>>527547675optimal turret placement is something i've thought about for a while. you're correct in that a turret to the side is better placement than right on your location assuming it can flag you, but something a lot of people don't consider enough is elevation. as long as the turret is above you, even just a little, it'll almost never hit you.

>>527541023Weapon slottage shouldn't define how powerful a gun should be, just how efficient it is. If a player takes a support weapon that kills chaff, they should have options on their primaries and secondaries that kill heavies. Just again innefficiently.
Stim economy ruined the game. There's rarely a point where a player will consider banking a stim, and the game actively punishes you for holding onto stims with limb break and insta kills from 75% health. Stims effectively let you take risky plays. They shouldn't be the main source of healing in this game.

>>527550352Yeah, in general the factors that you can use to keep helldivers safe from sentries are:
>different Z-level>placing them to the sides rather than in line with the enemy>placing them far away from the team>placing them where hard cover blocks direct LOS between the helldivers and the turretBlocking LOS entirely has a drawback in that it makes the turret more vulnerable to being overwhelmed and destroyed since helldivers can't help keep the turret clear. But this is only really a concern for the rocket/AC sentries, and the helldivers themselves are free to relocate to a position where they can cover the turret if they wish. What's important is that the turret can't vaporize a teammate while their attention is on the enemy.

>>527551197the turret being overwhelmed isn't really an issue so as long as it gets to use most of its ammo imo
If a turret is thrown off to the sides and gets overwhelmed, all of those enemies are being drawn away from the main team. There's no need to support the stupid turret because its expendable and their cooldowns are so low now there's very little incentive to actually keep them alive. People just need to learn to chuck turrets out with servo assisted on flanks or to where you can't see them so they can kill things and draw aggro with no risk of decapitating a teammate.

>>527552618It's like they pulled a starship troopers, and actually proved the point of super earth.
For a major galactic empire they're doing a pretty good job controlling things.

>>527553024>Starship TroopersI actually read that book because I bought it years ago and finished it after starting Helldivers. The references are there but the book is just about jacking off military service. It's based but a meme. Would read again though.

>>527552618Defending yourself is le hecking fascism
>>527552656Nah. If you go to extraction. Enemies will spawn same way they spawn as during extraction has been called. Same direction. Same gongoline
And it's diffrent than standing middle of nowhere.
I'm just wondering why isn't there system where enemy spawning starts when extraction is called and where they come from and how many directions is dependand on difficulty.
D10. They come from everywhere
>wow this objective is really boring you just stand around pushing buttons for 5 minutes>wow extraction is really fucking boring, no enemies spawn at all on 99% of mapgensGentlemen I have a solution
Just make every single "stand around and wait" objective work like pic related from the moment the first terminal is activated
>>527552967i know solodiving is the hot new meme around here but most people play this game with other people and you're not going to convince 3 illiterate randoms in every single game to stand on the very tippy toe edge of extraction so that both patrols are able to spawn and the countdown timer is allowed to continue
how about instead of rabidly defending what is obviously a broken mechanic you do your part and send a report in about it so that extractions can work like they did in HD1 (FUN)

even then, SE is still genocidal as well as a state that reconstitutes human, bug, and bot bodies in order to grease the gears of war

>Slugger can one tap an overseer head at point blank

This was a deliberate balance decision too which is mind boggling. I get its supposed to be a close ranged weapon, but it doesn't do anything exceptional compared to other medium pen rifles. Outside of continous reload.
So whats up with ravagers and their seemingly wildly varying health? Sometimes it's an easy single EAT to the eyes to kill and sometimes it takes like 2-3 EATs to the same spot and they're still not dead. They are a less consistent kill than anything else in the game and its not even close.

>>527552402>Game tries to spawn enemies outside of map. And it can't.That's kind of dumb, it should let enemies spawn a little outside of map, just like 50-60 meters.
>>527554762That's like saying the perpetrator of a home invasion has a right to defend himself.

>>527552618Why is it so hard for the tribal brain to understand that all factions are morally corrupt?
Instead of peace, they all pursued war and violence, Super Earth being the one usually starting them for the sake of keeping the secret elite in power.
Obviously, as a human, I'd side with humanity to ensure my own survival, but that wouldn't mean I'd support the autoritarian and violent means Super Earth imposes, and I'd likely eventually end up labeled as a traitor and maybe caught and executed for trying to survive instead of throwing myself into the battlefield for SE.
There's also the argument that Super Earth sees everyone as expendable, and is guided by a Super AI that controls managed democracy. Meanwhile Illuminate have a clear hierarchy, so high ranking squids are extremely unlikely to ever see war and die, and automatons can back themselves up in data nodes, while soldier bugs are seen nurturing eachother even on the battlefield and all share the same mind (with the mindbug/shroom likely hidden somewhere impossible to find).
The only comfortable things SE offers for the middleman are propaganda of a comfy life (which never lasts because war is everywhere) and a fake sense of camraderie between soldiers.
Meanwhile other factions have actual perks.
