>Previous>>527969484>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.

AI posters get the rope, and im not talking about the thick white ones reserved for leandivers
I do not give a fuck about killing zombies and walking turds
>>528034874 (OP)>start running RR on bots>immediately stop dying and manage 400 kill 0 death pubmatches
Move aside squidshit. Moon kino is open
>>528035312RR is the best AT weapon on bots just for being able to OHK everything, outside of sub-/objectives.
Dogs? Eyeshot.
Hulks? Anywhere.
Tanks? Anywhere.
The only reason why you'll get people telling you otherwise is because they want to feel unique and quirky for going "haha but at least its nor the RR, r-right?"
Ammo might become an issue at times, but POIs and some outposts have ammo boxes lying around anyway, and if you dont waste your shots on dumb bullshit like dropships, you'll do just fine.
post that loadout if it's so great
https://democracy-hub.net
I don't want to kill squids...
>>528035695Huh, on what front? Do not get me wrong, I'm down to fight on all 3, but just curious.
>>528035725I WILL nail the engine during transit this time! Just watch.
>misses
>>528035312Having the fastest and most reliable way to kill the most dangerous enemies is very good, yes
you can't trust pubbies with RR to use it smartly, they'll waste it all on dropships and hulks that got stuck with a thermite or are being lasered in the eye
>>528036376What the fuck. That isn't the pic I chose.
>>528036560that's just 4cuck scamming you with its bugginess, ancient bug, happens to every anon at least once

I believe I have crafted the ultimate bugz loadout.
>Light armor
>Torcher
>Ultimatum
>Braap nades
>Supply pack
>Stalwart
>free slot
>free slot
Torcher kills mediums and thick hordes, Stalwart kills hunters/stalkers/distant hordes, Ultimatum kills heavies, and gas grenades closes holes and retardifies bugs I can be bothered to kill. Supply pack keeps me topped up on Ultimatum shots and grenades.
>>528035931This is the second artist I've seen that makes Tau girls with massive, milk-leaking tits & enormous nipples.
It's strangely specific but I'm happy there's 2 of them.
after several operations I have deduced that anons saying there are always 6 gorillion fleshmobs around are lying. There's never more than 3 in a patrol and flares only bring in 1 or 2 with them atmost
>>528035312>>528035725Personally I prefer Quasar + Portable Hellbomb. Being able to one-tap Hulks and Katyushas is enough for me, since Annihilators rarely pose an actual threat and turret towers can be maneuvered around or just two-shot at leisure since they don't move. Infinite ammo and not being tied down by an ammo backpack is super handy, and the Portable Hellbomb lets me quickly kill Gunship Facilities and Stratagem Jammers on top of maiming Bot Drops.

>>528038592I’ve never used diligence is it good?
Personally I would replace Autocannon sentry with rocket and 380 with 120
Looks good tho
>>528036224*pisses into your lobby*
>>528035725>>528036475>stand on elevated position>clear out any threats and fabs>team can now walk in and do objs without resistanceshould've done this earlier.
>>528038745It's my comfort loadout. If I'm running solo I'll usually swap to medium padded, and swap the air strike for an EAT so I have an instant answer for factory strider turrets. That's really the only thing this loadout doesn't have an immediate answer to.
>>528036224I will rape all bots.
>>528039348Diligence is a top pick on bots honestly. Unmodded it has a very good scope, amazing ergo, low recoil, decent magdump ability, pinpoint accuracy, and high mag capacity. You just pop dev heads all day long with it, and if you git gud you can even pop zerker heads. 1-taps troopers most of the time, easily pops chicken rockets, and if a Hulk is retardo-locked on something you can even magdump the back for a quick kill.
AC sentry is a personal choice I just like it over the rockets. 120 is good, but the low shell damage can let you down sometimes. You get bigger "fuck this entire base" and "oh fuck that's a lot of bots in that drop" power with the 380.
Games is kinda frustrating
I can't complete a single mission
>>528036224Calling in an eagle!
Does the WASP do anything to the Leviathans, or is it just a waste of ammo?
>>528036224No words.
>>528039386Bloody based, brother.
>>528039348Nta, but both diligences imo are good on bots and even squids, just need to do some weakspot practice and you will really like it.
>>528035725>Ammo might become an issue at timesi got you

>>528042597You and your team probably have a bad loadout.
The more I play against them the more annoyed I get. The whole search light thing could've been fun if the search light actually stopped for a second or so when it got a lock on, the sense of dread as you try to get away when you've been spotted, trying to break los or jumping away at the last second would add to the game. Instead we get this shit.
They should never have been used outsides of mega cities in their current state.
>sneak around
Frequently more than one covering most/all angles.
>hide
They're so slow that you'd have to hide for a long ass time. Boring game play.
>kill them
More will spawn instantly assuming they don't kill you before you kill them.

It says Bugs but I'd use this on pretty much every faction, switching out Railgun for Stalwart if it's Predshitters and Strafing for Napalm Eagle if it's city.
Consider the following grenade
>Sticky that, if successfully stuck, will call in a mini precision strike
>If it does not stick, it does nothing.
>>528042597Gloom bugs is the hardest imo.
>constant fighting >low visibility>everything goes boom
>>528043945squids are different in that 99% of their roster spawns on D4 and above while for bots and bugs their heavier units are severely limited or outright not present
squid planets are also just bad for sample collecting. try bots or bugs until you get a better handle on things and a bigger arsenal to deal with heavier units and larger crowds
>>528044326Is it okay to not participate in the event thing that currently ongoing?
I wish there was an orbital that makes planets with shit visibility have good visibility for a good while.
>>528044471Yes.

>>528044471Some frustrated pinkos will tell you that it isn't okay, but realistically it doesn't fucking matter. Only time MO's matter is if they put a real reward for it like a stratagem, but even then it'll probably come back eventually anyway.
>>528043945You're given the best tools to deal with squids right away: MG turret and MG-43. Massacre their numbers. At Diff 4 you don't even have to think about Leviathans. Just mow down the hordes.

Eagle Strafing Run needs to be nerfed so it can be the decent all-rounder jack of all trades instead of superior in everything, and make the other Eagle runs (bombs, rocket pods, napalm and clusters) more viable in their own niches.

>>528060945Youre talking sense.
Stop it.
>>528060408the game was designed from the ground up to have one shots, you are squishy normal human with grounded weaponry. why not play space marines 2 if you want to an invincible super human
>>528060945some primaries should be nerfed actually
>>528057719Anon is probably a footfag.
I genuinely enjoy the addition of leviathans even if I somewhat agree that they should probably be easier to kill and not respawn instantly. They sound cool, look cool, and I enjoy the hide and seek dynamic especially on city maps where I have to bob and weave through the alleyways to avoid them.
>>528061473Which ones and why?
>>528061294Just because it was designed that way doesnt mean its good.
>>528061294No its not. Its a total fucking clown show. Go play Arma or something if you want to play a 'normal human' with 'grounded weaponry'
>>528026983Directional shield shouldn't ragdoll you when it eats an explosion.

>>528061949>Implying Helldivers invented the concept of a one-shot>Implying people play the game specifically to die in one hit

>>528061949You sound like the type of nigga who doesnt look for a girlfriend because you can jerk off and watch porn.
You dont get it, little bro.
>>528061949Because they're arrogant and self-absorbed?
>>528061984Don't even see why people hate shield pack so much. it enables light armor in every situation, n gives heavy armor more room to breath. It also lets you move without getting slowed or ragdolled by random explosions that don't hit you.
It basically turns off all the bullshit in the game.
>But it's bad because ... It just is okay!Like it's not even close to the crutch that is supply pack
>>528062363Swedish arrogance exists even in Darktide. It baffles the mind.
I like the armor that gives crouch accuracy and extra grenades because I like it when my bullets hit where I aim and dislike running out of grenades
>>528061949To be fair
They un-helldivers the game by turning it into a genuine mill sim.
Like yeah bullshit randomly killed you in the first game, but the consequence was that you lose your gear for a few seconds, and you got all your ammo and supplies back.
Granted the first game was even worse with the difficulty scaling and weapon viability falling off
Have they released city maps for bots yet?
Remember breaker shotgun meta? That wasn't super fun
I don't get why you guys don't just play space marine or darktide instead
>>528061674>Make Sci-fi game that takes place a hundred years into the future>The pinnacle of your imagination is "Assault rifle that stuns people"Considering how Helldivers 1 has more advanced tech, Holograms, Rep-80, ect, you could easily gaslight someone into thinking Helldivers 2 is actually a prequel.
>>528061674Reminder the lead QA is an arma fag and treats this game like a milsim.
>>528062867How is Arma even around? The only time I hear about it is when some boomer mistakes it for real combat footage.
>>528062867Are ARs also shit in Arma?
>>528063060arma is like dungeon&dragons for tacticool retards
>>528063060People still play and host arma servers regularly in my group
And basically this
>>528063263
>>528063101its been years since I played but honestly ARs in Arma are about as good as you would expect them to be in real life. If you're lying down from a stable firing position you can hit things out to 400-600 meters and they'll kill whatever you're shooting at.
>>528062867He's right, but then again I doubt they actually have a QA lead.
>>528063060It's fun to play soldier. Helldivers 2 is basically ARMA without the boring ass autism parts where you have to play pretend some actual faggot is your CO just so you can call in artillery on a hospital.
>>528052437It was fun anons! Barrage Squad was a beautiful thing to watch.
>>528062698Id argue the lite mil-sim elements are what makes the game feel so good to play. If someone tries to make clone of this game in the future I guarantee you it wouldn't be as fun because it will be designed like every other generic horde shooter
>>528052437ggwp all that was missing was the APC on that map long run to the lidar and back
Alright I keep having this problem where I join a lobby and we're going at it and then we all get booted to a ship in under a second?
I prefer d9 over d10 because mega nests/fortresses are boring, gay and lame
>>528062867There's QA???? WHAT THE FUCK ARE THEY DOING
>>528060625>bringing stratagems to deal with flying patrolsWeak. At that point you can just run eagle smoke to blind the Levi's and keep them from targeting you, or eagle strafe and just kill them.
>>528062867No wonder the QA is military grade. What a hack faggot, they should chop him up and sell his meat to a kebab shop already.
>>528063697>I raise the difficulty in my Vidya>the enemies health quadruples
>>528063697Hard to say.
It feels less like a mil sim at times and more like goat sim with the glitches.
I would say hd1 is like what helldivers would be without the milsim parts and it's a really solid game. Balance is fucked, but AH is pretty clearly bad at balance. Still fun tho.
>>528063871Nests? Yeah, fortresses? Nah
>>528064013Speaking of QA, do any of you guys have the problem where you're playing a match with randoms and then randomly you get booted from the planet and back to whoever is hostings ship instantly?
>hmm fortified should help me offset the leviathan's gayness

This is my usual build. What does /hdg/ think? How would you make it more fun?
>>528060625aside from the fact they quickly respawn, yeah enemy factions should have enough strong units for a single player to not be able to counter them. You should have to rely on you're teammates and yes bots are bad because of thus
>>528064328uhm bro... your cover?! your shield backpack???
>>528064286Occasionally. But I think it's due to a temporary loss of connection, like half a second, enough to disconnect you from the match but otherwise the game continues on as if it didn't just boot you back to the ship.

democracy will decide the faction
>>528063697Some other game I played forever had some glitch where you could get hit multiple times by one bullet and die instantly. Every enemy could just instantly kill you if you weren't careful to not get shot in the first place. Everyone thought it was headshots or critical hits but the devs confirmed neither of those were a thing. It suited that game but it was a glitch and when it eventually got fixed basically all of the tension of just walking through areas was gone. That game though the cost of death was way higher. You only got one life and had to corpse run to get your stuff back and the stuff you did have would cost several missions worth of stuff to even buy in the first place.
As for helldivers you get 5 lives which regenerate and drop in with all your stuff except for your support weapons/backpack which only has a few minute cooldown. There's not really any consequence to dying. You can even finish a mission and die without extracting and still be successful. At best the only reason to care about dying to bullshit is if you have an english username and are playing with the chinese because they won't reinforce you. Even then it's just a longer waiting period until the game resumes.
>>528064670I've had the boot back to the ship three times now. There's no loading screen or nothing it's like we get teleported from the ground to the ship

>>528068985>Shield genLook, I know only like 4 enemies spawn at a time on D3 but thats not an option when theres 4 fleshmobs, 20 voteless and 3 elevated overseers shooting you.
>>528069306Which ones? Shield gen? Stand in the open for a few seconds while it slowly flies over and have it kill the shield anyway within seconds? Smoke? Does literally nothing. Leviathans are horribly designed no matter which way you slice it.

>>528067842Oh yeah I'm retarded. What game then? Sounds like my brand of torture.
>>528062425I switched to supply pack because /hdg/ bullies shield users. I then realized how broken this game becomes if you have infinite stims. Also, getting a "thank you" every time I give a spare supply to my teammate is an additional dopamin hit.
>>528061294It is indeed. That's why missions have 20 reinforcement as baseline. People just get irrationally upset if they die even if it is expected due to bad luck or getting overwhelmed. Also, all of the "bullshit one shot" are usually preventable or mitigated because they usually come from slow enemies or slow attack. Games have so much tools to bail you out too. Diff 10 should be designed around squeezing all of those reinforcement to the limit. People don't want to tanky enemies but people also don't want enemies to have too dangerous attack. If enemies have no chance of one hit or combo you to death, you can just stim and escape in most situations, especially with the stim booster.
>>528069548Did they fix the broken SC spawns on city maps yet?
>>528068443I am extremely vindictive and will go out of my way to fuck your shit up unless I get a "sorry!".

>>528069918into the radius
>>528062425On bots it gets you killed more often than not because your hitbox is now huge. Arguably worth it with low shot number weapons due to making sure you won't get staggered out of shooting, but still you're just asking to catch cannon shots that would have otherwise missed and get impacted into a rock.

>>528070902Nah. Arc Thrower and Guard Dog clean up any chaff, leaving commando for heavies. The fun tech of this loadout is stunning hulks with the arc Thrower and seeing if I can land the shell of the OPS on them for quick kills. Tanks can usually "tank" a OPS shell but can get finished by a commando shot or similar follow up. The OPS is objectively shit but it is good for objective clear and annoying structure removal. It's also fun to see if I can 1-tap tower turrets by trying to align the trajectory of the OPS to hit it from the correct side.
Slugger is flavor for stuns and trying to tap heads. Dagger for sweeping groups of troops if I don't wanna arc em. It's a dumb loadout but I like it.

Good lord, turn this shit OFF as soon as you can, if you have it on. I thought this game had horrible input lag or something this whole time, turns out this setting just adds momentum and inertia to all your mouse movement. Aiming is waaaaay easier for me now.

The mission is a series of tight corridors, and you're able to call in hellpods, but the hole made by the pods gets closed up by the fast-repairing nanites (which explains why it can't be destroyed via normal weapons).
You fight the same sorts of enemies but in an extremely challenging close quarters environment with gun turrets, traps, etc to the control room, do some typing at the console, and get out before the ship explodes.

These particles are considered entities and that is why sometimes your arcs randomly fire off to hit the air.

>>528081454>No argument>>528080784So let me get this straight.
Your straight is to take the shield gen, not for the leviathan, (Which was the topic) but to use it as bait for mobs?
>And the generator is still there even thenIf you played the game you would realize once the shield goes down it never comes back.
>>your team is outside the bubble because you're running off by yourself like a retardYeah man. Lets all huddle inside this bubble while 4 fleshmobs and a voteless horde come running at us and shooting it with explosive stuff
Things must be wild on D3.
>Man this game is too hard
Lower the difficulty
>Man I hate fighting leviathans in the open
Select a different modifier
>>528082947Actually same. I've switched to using the liberator carbine until it gets fixed
>He doesnt see the issue in having one singular enemy causing everyone to avoid it
Its crazy how no other enemy in the game does that.
>>528083018Naw I take shield gen for both the leviathan and to pull aggro for zombies and flesh mobs. With how tight loadouts are atm, it's necessary to double duty it.
If the shield bubble breaks the generator will remain, it only goes away when the timer runs out.
It has a large enough health pool to work as a distraction, which is super useful considering how little damage the voteless actually do to structures.
>>528083018>he's still going
>>528083201>>He doesnt see the issue in having one singular enemy causing everyone to avoid itWhat's the issue with it?
Does the game get harder when you funnel enemies through alleyways and take cover?
>>528083362You do remember were talking about Leviathans, right?
Leviathans are okay, actually. The range nerf and the spotlight made them a lot more bearable, and dare I say it even kino
>>528083545That was a complete non-answer.

>>528083740You're right that isn't an answer
>>528083593see pic related.
The shield bubble blocks damage from leviathan, and the shield generator itself draws aggro.
Stop being a retard shitter and go back to your hug box on bugs.
>>528083712they're ok in the cities, it's clear they were designed to be there, but they definitely should not be spawning on colony maps
>>528083992They could fix it by making them only spawn when players approach objectives or enter cities.
Yeah but why do they HAVE to respawn instantly though? There's no down time.
>>528084157To discourage you from trying to kill them.
They honestly should have just made them unkillable so people would get the memo. But AH wanted to give players the potential to kill them.
Leviathans should've just fired harvester lasers instead of instakill orbs.
>>528083970So let me get this right. I need to tell 3 other people to not only put their chair inside my shield, but also do 24 thousand points of damage to the fleshmobs already charging at us and the rest of the voteless horde and to the overseers.
All so we can finally kill the leviathan who already probably destroyed the shield.
Yeah, man. Leviathans are perfectly balanced.
Like I said. This game must be wild on D3.
>>528084256>you're meant to get fucked by them periodically with no counter actionThat's even worse
>>528084496>kill the insta respawning, HP bullet sponge enemyoh okay you're retarded, no need to say more.
>>528084256>They honestly should have just made them unkillable so people would get the memoHow would that solve the issue? Even if people dont try to kill it, (Which is what most people do anyway) it still ragdolls you endlessly until it finally decides to kill you.

>>528085104Has some neat cosmetics, the weapons are ok except for the grenade launcher which is really good. As usual, one specific thing in the warbond carries the entire product.

>>528085462Red most of the times, stay away from it.
at least on release i would cope with the instakill rockets by thinking
>oh I can drop the bot as fast as they can drop me so its fair
leviathans suck for this reason because they demand so much to take them out/disabling them that you're better off ignoring them (as the brownoid devs intended) or to disengage with smoke (which you can't even do, you need to drop it before it sees you)

>>528086260Me too, It's something to do with my hands and just vibe
>>528086690damn you sound like you are burnt out on this game and are trying to squeeze fun out of it.
So what I'm getting is that there's no point in killing Leviathans because they're just gonna spawn again instantly anyway, so putting in the effort doesn't matter
You could also just use shields and smokes to disengage but that also isn't an entirely optional gameplan because they're just gonna notice you before you can do anything anyway and you're likely to get attacked by a bunch of mobs during the process
I don't understand why you would implement a giant near unkillable enemy that's constantly taking potshots at you, have a strategy to deal with them that only really works in theory and then tell Players to just ignore it
>>528086690Would be if I wasn't stuck at work. Good luck and godspeed.

Thankfully it looks like the playerbase is making enough of a fuss about it. In the meantime if you genuinely like squids (how), the most reasonable thing you can do is bring a shield generator. It's helpful with more things than just the Leviathan so it doesn't feel like a completely wasted slot.

Bugs are the most random and inconsistant faction in the game, predator strain improves upon and encourages more teamplay than "shoot into buggy moshpit".

>>528094874>Squids are literally afk simulator too.the point is not nearly as much as the other factions, and there is a fucking world of difference between a bug rocket mission and a squid rocket missions
bugs: like 3 breaches per side per launch with less than half a dozen enemies each, maybe 3 heavies the entire time, actual AFK snorefest
bots: 3 to 4 dropships per side that are often full, typically 1 to 2 tanks and 2 to 3 hulks in each drop, always a factory strider every other drop, pretty chill if you take out the big threats first, but bots can snowball if you actually go afk like you can with bugs
squids: dozens of voteless, overseers, and fleshmobs with every drop, harvesters coming in packs of 3, flying overseer cunts hovering 100 meters in the air coming over the walls raining grenades on you and going after the generators, stingrays making sudden runs on your sentry/emplacement line wrecking all your defences. can hold them at the gates sure but snowball potential is much higher and you actually have to fight instead of letting your turrets do all the work

I just, fuck man. I really try to have fun and enjoy this game but I swear to God arrowhead seems hell bend on doing everything in their power to make me not have fun. I'm just so God damn tired at this point.
Every single mission now feels like a struggle to just play, but what frustrates me is that it was not this bad before, it just keeps getting worse. For me the thing I'm losing my patience over is the constant spawning in of enemies in locations there were none not but a second ago. It's at the point I can't even attempt to engage thing because I'm getting jumped.
Unless thing change, and unless the next warbond really interests me or they do something interesting in the game, I'm going to enjoy the 100+gb of free space

Sustromming is brown people repellant.
>>528110915It's an all people repellant. It's rotting fish.
>>528110041You could sit on top of the bug breach even before 60 days patch if your team set 3 missiles turrets and throw incendiary eagle/bombardment over the breach. All charger can't even leave the breach with missile turrets firing nonstop and you might chuck in a 500 kg or precision orbital strike once in a while if you see a titan/impaler spawn.
No one respect bugdiver for that reason. Bot was only the true test of competency until they completely neutered the whole faction
>>528108230The issue with RR's damage doesn't really stem from its damage, it's from requiring to hit a weak point despite the damage. They have damage and health dialed in so tight that moving backwards (-1 damage) is the make or break point for killing heavies WITH a weak point hit. AT should be AT, not this silly minigame of required weak point hits.
Flubbers have vastly too much health for the number of them that spawn. Thankfully, AC pack and Eruptor literally one-shot them
Leviathans are a mess. The aforementioned "hit weak point or go game" design philosophy can't apply to a floating base with wallhacks, 1s delay between ragdolling one-shots that instantly respawns on death.
Another victory for the right side of history.
>>528110819Everyone says "okay, shitter" but never "are you okay, shitter"
>>528111049>People shouldn't have to aim for weak points just because they're using a AT weapon. Stopped reading after that. Genuine shitter comment taken straight from (r)reddit.
>>528111049>They have damage and health dialed in so tight that moving backwards (-1 damage) is the make or break point for killing heavies WITH a weak point hit.I hope you're speaking in the past tense here and not about the current balance
>>528111049I agree with just rounding the value up to not have the moving forward shooting part but complaining about having to hit a giant fuck weak point is stupid. Regular charger was too much of a non-threat after they allow 1 shot headshot because the giant fuck head is the easiest part to hit on a charger. That's why behemoth exist. Titans should always be 2 shot AT headshots except for SPEAR. If all AT one shot headshot a titan easily then there is no reason to use SPEAR at all
>hits a clump of dirt and teleports thirty feet straight up a sheer cliff as you go to rr its face

>>528040353Everything is a waste of ammo on Leviathans. You might as well shoot the ground. Pump 6-7 RR rounds in it, use the AT chair and pump 60% of the ammo just to take one out only to have it respawn in 10 seconds, and have 3 buddies.
They're just a tax at this point, and half as fun. Adding the flashlight on it feels more like mockery than anything.

>>528089238I wouldn't mind if there was just like 2-3 on a map but when you took them out, they were gone gone. Not gone for 5 second before two more respawn once you look away.
And the SAM site should come back so you can have a secondary that feels very important just for suppressing Leviathans.

It really shouldn't be needed to tell them that enemy that one taps you from across the map, is extremely difficult to even damage, and instantly respawns even if you manage to kill one, and there can be 3-4 on the map at once isn't a great enemy design.

Anon... I dont get it. Why do you want to fuck the bot? It cant produce off spring.
>>528115280I think only 1 spawning would be good. Part of the reason they feel bullshit is because you avoid one, then another comes lurking out from behind a skyscrapper, and then another.
Its just 3 annoying enemies you need to keep track of. With one you can keep track of it and plan around it. But yes, they should fix the damn spotlight.
>>528115280Why are we jumping through all of these hoops instead of just giving them a meaningful respawn delay instead? Holy fuck let them be a massive threat if that's AH's great and unimpeachable vision for the unit, but at least allow the players who put the effort in to destroy them a reprieve from the constant fucking ragdolling.

I hate the bug with the eruptor where it doesnt shoot where you are aiming if you pull the trigger after you bolt the next shot you have to wait a very small amount of time but its still annoying.

I just think the Spear should do 8000 damage and explode with 1500 aoe damage wherever it lands. I dont think anyone would be sad over the low ammo AT option killing Leviathans and Fac Striders in 2 shots, Titans in 1 shot in the bodies and also gain the ability to wipe clumped squads if a heavy targetable unit is in the crowd.

>>528116207The discord is fucking pissed about them honestly.
I think people just don't play the mission and bitch. It's not that hard.
>>528116067>wasting tons of spear ammo or AT placement ammo is "difficulty"It's not hard, it's a waste of time. They're easy to hit. You can hit them from anywhere. Now if you made leviathan weak point be smaller and only visible from directly below them like EDF alien ships then maybe there would be some fun to fighting leviathans. High risk high reward for actually positioning for the weak spot or otherwise wasting a ton of ammo from the long distance. But nope, they take shitload of ammo to kill anyways and they're mostly nuisance.
>>528116421>thread suddenly filled with Leviathan defenders>despite receiving considerable criticism in any other threadLike I said, you made it too obvious.

>>528116123This and also give tanks AP7 on the front to simulate composite armor, which IRL makes tanks virtually immune to non-tandem HEAT warheads of man-portable AT solutions (read: RR and EAT) and low-caliber kinetic AP munitions (read: 40 mm APHE of the autocannons).

>>528116337Flesh mobs being DPS checks has at least given me a reason to try other weapons. I am still annoyed that shooting off limbs/heads or crippling their legs has very little impact on their effectiveness.
Maybe I'm talking out of my ass with the arms part, actually. Does it reduce the effectiveness of their sperg flailing?
You guys are really riled up tonight. if I had a rep-80 I probably couldnt fix this. But it would be fun to have one.
>>528116682>but make it so impacts one shot tanks again if you hit them right.>tanks always had at least 750 HP on the turret weakspot>impacts always did at most 400 damagethey never one shot full health tanks
>>528116176of course there isnt the Spear is unequivocally the most dogshit AT option in the game currently.
>>528116620they used to have AP6 on launch so while you could brute the front down if you wanted to save ammo hitting sides was the one shot method for lighter AT options but they changed that to Ap5 then Ap6 then back to Ap5 for some reason.
>>528116686>Maybe I'm talking out of my ass with the arms part, actually. Does it reduce the effectiveness of their sperg flailing?Yep you can completely neuter em if you cut the arms off. It's hard as fuck, but if you stun em it's doable.
They can't even hurt you, they just walk up to you and mumble about game balance.
>>528116620There is no reason to believe Automaton tanks are up to the standards of protection offered by present day MBTs. I would have thought the giant, highly explosive glowing heat sink on the back would have made that obvious.
>>528116686>Flesh mobs being DPS checks has at least given me a reason to try other weapons.Personally I just ignore them lmao

Actually amazing, i never thought i'd see the day where i'd willingly choose to play bugs but squids somehow managed to do it, at least while i have shotguns to level up
>>528116686>Maybe I'm talking out of my ass with the arms part, actually. Does it reduce the effectiveness of their sperg flailing?yes, with no arms only their charge attack can do damage to you (and it's not that much without an arm swipe to tag you as part of the charge)

>>528116949Yes it is, AND Euros just woke up aswell, you giga retard.
>>528117060Im no expert but I dont think heatsinks are meant to glow red when in use.
>>528116820AP5 would put them at about the level of the more well-protected modern IFVs. I could understand AP6 if we're to assume what you're saying to be the case, but just AP5, the same protection as their sides, is ultimately too little either way.
she was my everything....
>>528116937Only half of the playerbase are even participating in the MO. Squids just aren't fun.
>>528116938that stun thing with the charging is interesting.

>>528117118So what you're saying is that euros are on the same level of bootlicking as poos and chinks? Very embarrassing.
I wish the barrager tanks got back to having no armor on the rocket rack, its a bit bullshit that a paper thin sheet of metal can stop AP4 from piercing it
Also they should explode with the force of a High Explosive shell when killed, they're based on the Tor tanks so why not make them the death traps they are
>>528117237There was 80% participation during the Super Earth invasion.
The fault lies entirely with leviathans. Theyre not fun. People tolerated them on SE because there was a new biome and the skyscrappers blocking LOS gave you better leeway with them. But now the fatigue has started setting in.
>>528117291Dude, barrage tanks are already a joke as is and you want them nerfed even more? Nobody even gets hit by their rockets anymore.
do bots have fleshy parts
>>528117128>Im no expert but I dont think heatsinks are meant to glow red when in use.>all the weapons are laser basedI dunno, with how much force they shoot with those lasers. Thats gotta be a lot of fucking energy.
Honestly makes sense the more you think about it, which is kinda cool.
>>528117362Super earth is an exception because it was actual content.
Normal MOs are more boring than squids.
>>528117429This one probably does
>>528116717
I want one of those illuminate laser sticks as a plasma heavy strategem
>>528117362I think leviathans are a factor but I don't think they're the whole reason. Fleshmobs are pretty universally disliked too. And it seems to be the general consensus that squids just don't feel like a finished faction (probably because they aren't).
>>528116967I like to think that the tanks don't actually have operators, and just have a mind of their own.
>>528117403I think AH just forgot they existed.
Honestly if they ever get their AI fixed they're gonna be a nightmare.
Imagine those barrager squids, but shooting bigger strider missiles.
>>528117580Isn't that the case for all non-Strider Automaton vehicles?
>>528117134The world wasn't ready for your love...
>>528117543I don't give a shit about leviathans and fleshmobs, i just don't want to play a faction missing like a third of it's units, half it's side objectives and that doesn't even have a mega fort.
>>528117639I SWEAR there was sound effects from automaton tanks that you could hear the bots inside them yelling.
Maybe that was just hd1
>>528117429yeah the human brain inside the skull
Sell me on the punisher plasma bros
I'm trying it on 10 bots and the low rate of fire + multiple shots to kill devs and scouts doesn't feel great
Am I doing something wrong
Ive lost track of the times Ive crawled on an active bot tank being suspiciously motionless thinking it was dead.
>>528117429They might have organic brains or at least some kinda biologically based CPU, but probably not.
Whatever happened to those huge Dune worms that were teased for the bugs? Did they end up just being the impalers?
>>528117765it's like a primary arc thrower.
You pair it with other explosives to whittle down the total health pool.
Like throw an impact? that's like 3 less shots you gotta make to kill everything. Same with aoe shit like napalm. It also stun locks the crowd. It's one of my favorite guns when I feel like going tard mode with nades.
>>528117718If you're a robot, why not just skip the middleman (the body) altogether and control vehicles directly?
>After performing a melee attack, the Commissar has a rather peculiar habit of standing still while crossing their arm over their chest, as if taunting their opponent or attempting to protect themselves. This however, leaves them completely open to retaliation.
>>528117639I like to think the Armored Striders don't have an operator either.
>>528117718I don't see any reason why a sentient tank wouldn't still be able to communicate with other soldiers. Honestly I just like the idea of being reborn as an Automaton and your whole purpose just being a literal Tank. It's cool as hell, and it makes the Automatons feel more "alien" and robotic.

I played with someone who had the reddit creek flag in squids today
They were as terrible as I suspected.
>>528117689The new illuminate roster will drop and everyone will understand everything. Trust the plan.
>>528118095learning how main damage works ruined the game for me. Sucks how much stuff is irrelevant because you're just dealing damage to completely different health pools.
>charger
>dealing damage to the butt deals 150% damage to main
>behemoth
>dealing damage to the butt deals 50% damage to main
is this intentional?
>>528118371Isn't the butt a fatal zone anyway? It seems like you'd destroy it before you depleted the main health pool
>>528118270not exactly, it depends on unit and faction
>>528118460It's not instantly fatal but it causes them to bleed out.
>>528118150I think it would be like wearing a really shitty medieval helmet either way, so it works out.
>>528118460It typically bleeds out, but it doesn't immediately die. It's kinda niche, but that's pretty big for explosive weapons like grenades, or fire damage from shit like the flamethrower.
Like looking at it, it'd take about 25 seconds if you just blew his ass out raw? nice
>>528117765The stun lock, especially AOE stun lock, is important. It doesn't kill the devastator the fastest but it kill strider and smaller enemies well. You can stagger a devas and switch to your support to kill. It also goes through heavy shield.
Honestly, it was a crucial weapon when bot was more of a threat. You had to stagger the devas, especially shield devas, if you can't kill them before they rev up the chain gun.
Since it is a plasma explosive, it can go through and destroy tank/tower heat sink. You can actually arc the shot to hit the heat sink of a tank even from the front.
>modding in SEAF skins
Why do redditors love larping as shitty cannon fodder? You see them do the same thing with imperial guard too.
>>528118482I dunno.
like if you throw an impact at a group of devs. Their main Hp pool goes from 450 to 350. And if you shoot them in the torso, you will kill after dealing 350 damage. but that ONLY saved you 75 damage you woulda dealt.
This is a lot worse on heavies, where their heads have such tiny health pools compared to their main pools. EG you do like 4000 damage to the biletitan with a side shot with the spear. But if you tried to finish him off by shooting his head with the rail gun, you'll pop his head before his main hits zero. So you're better off just aiming for his bug sack
I for one don't mind leviathans

>>528119256Helldivers have less HP than SEAF, but they are piloted by the manifest spirit of managed democracy (the player)
>>528119256A helldiver is still leaps and bounds more valuable and effective.
>>528119025the imperial guard has always been popular. there's nothing wrong with wanting to play as a grunt. Thats what games like Ace of Spades did and they were great. Helldivers are like the elite of the grunts, its a very heavy handed part of the narrative that theyre very destructive and highly expendable.
Reddit is just cringe about it like they are about anything.

You ever think about how fucking big the enemies are in comparison to the rest of humanity?
If the Smelldivers really are 7ft tall as everyone's favorite hypno-sissy canon wishes to believe, that doesn't help us at all, when you look at just a Scavenger bug and realise it's essentially the size of a wild hog. Thus, a Hunter would be more or less the equivalent of a onions-diet bear pouncing at you.

>>528125016But being tall only really puts extra strain on your joints and heart without much in return. Obviously they aren't going to be super short, but I think 7' tall Helldivers would just be a straight downgrade from 6' Helldivers.
>>528125214Imagine the G force in those pod when you are that tall.
>>528125214If they all average at just about 7' then I thinks that's ok. I don't think most of them live long enough or serve long for joint issues to pop up. And who knows, they have minimal gene tech to help alleviate point issues.
>>528125214>extra strain on your joints and heart without much in returnwe have stims that are laced with all sorts of drugs under the flag, we get shot to shit, burned, cut, stabbed, get blunt force trauma, to a point where anything beneath the suit of the helldiver would be the same as a meat slurry.
