>>528286276>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.

Lobby decides
How to improve armor:
1. Let us recolor it. Just give us a set of stock palettes like with weapon skins, it's that easy. That way we can mix and match the fashion more easily, and even match armors to weapons instead of the other way around.
2. Give us a customization slider for armor rating vs. stamina. For each individual armor piece, we can shift the armor rating by up to 25 in either direction, and sprint speed and stamina recovery shifts in the opposite direction proportionately (e.g. for every +1 armor, you get -1 speed and -0.5 stamina).
3. Let us tweak the armor passive values within themselves. For instance, with the Fortified perk, you can change it to 20% recoil reduction but 60% explosive resistance, or 40% recoil reduction and 40% explosive resistance. Or with Engineering Kit, you can change it to 15% recoil reduction but +3 grenades, or 45% recoil reduction but +1 grenade.

>>528350941okay have fun with that I'ma go dive on some bugs
Like, seriously, do your research before spouting nonsense. Helldivers 2 is all about cooperative play against AI enemies, not some sweaty PvP tryhard fest. And calling it hardcore? Pfft, itโs literally designed for casuals to jump in, have fun, and maybe accidentally blow up their squad with a stratagem. The difficulty scales, sure, but itโs not Dark Souls in space. Check the wiki or, I dunno, actually play the game before embarrassing yourself again. Pathetic. Smh.
HD2 pvp could be great if done right and I refuse to believe otherwise
>>528353051as someone who just turned a randoms extract into a bloodbath i completely agree
>>528353051The only PVP I support is one where another team controls bugs/bots/squiggers or it's like zombie master where one person controls the AI and different events

>>528353416Only the OGs will know. ZMR is still up btw.
Upgraded my CPU recently and never realized how intensive this game was on my old one. I always figured it was the GPU slowing me up. Super smooth now. What is it doing that's so heavy on CPUs?

>>528354297All the physics processing, most games have clientside ragdolls while this one has serverside so its more calculations, on a big map as well. Im not sure how well the game culls.
>>528354352Iโve read it, I'm warning you. this exact scenario has already been played out before
>>528353051no pvp is ever great or done right. either:
>its homogenous and boring>its entirely imbalanced based on dev preference>its a "everyone is locked into their own role" type of homogenous>its a hacker shitshow
>>528355103where is the lime green paint job in weapon customization?
Its chinkoid hours on the squid front. Time to play a different faction.

>its Counter-Halofieldestiny of Duty: <#> Black Guardian Company Zero

>>528354297it's all in the enemy AI and Arrowhead will never even attempt optimizing it. I guess it's too late now but if you were to dive into a d1-d5 on your old cpu you'd have 70% higher frames than on any given D10 on the same biome.
>>528355120all of this could be solved by keeping potential pvp missions small in scale, like 2v2. that way no overtuned item is so ubiquitous that countering it becomes impossible and you can just play with mates who can be trusted to be above the pettiness of a hax user.

>>528355806And yet bright gold yellow is not the same as lime green or shocking pink. You goddamned stupid fucking moron.
I've been playing a swath of other games for the last two weeks after the super earth event and you know what, HD2 genuinely is one of the best games of all time. Not because its technically impressive from a game development view like HL2, but because the style of live service, number of patches, type of patches and responsiveness is absolutely godlike in comparison to any other dev out there right now.
Just compared to the bullshit being pulled in Nightreign, Dune or MHW it really makes you appreciate Arrowhead a lot more even for what few mistakes they've made by being so reactive.

We've had the DSS with it's correct ability on one correct planet a grand total of once since it was added, and 99.99% of the time the wrong ability is active or the ability that should've been active is on cooldown or gathering samples to activate. It's all all poorly designed and should be removed or reworked.

bro, they shouldve just removed illuminate temporarily after the super earth invasion to focus on revamping them. we couldve started pushing the automatons and tyranids back but now we're stuck fighting the boring illuminate AGAIN over complete bullshit oh yeah the invaded planets somehow have no intercommunication other than the observation deck so true bro.

At least with squids I can drop tesla or some shit to take aggro.
bugs just fucking nuke your greens too fast, and they're just on you immediately.
Even if you kill the chaff, there will be a bile titan forcing you to hold S while you try and whittle it down.
Then an impaler shows up and you just keep moving. N theres just no answer to any of this save "lol bring gas"
Granted I'm solo-diving. But holy shit it's just not fun.
>>528377042lower cooldown, less TK potential
Gatling is strong in its own right if you need a lot of anti-medium firepower right this second, but it requires some brainpower to properly place or it will mow down your squad. Most pubbies lack this brainpower, sadly.
>>528377042because it lasts longer and has less chance of teamkilling
>>528377042>Shoots the corpse for like 5 seconds before changing targets>TKs the fuck out of you and your teammates>Longer cooldown, which hurts when that thing just instantly pops to a charger
every single primary should have an iron sights option. there's literally no reason why they couldnt just have an option for every attachment in the game and just make you keep leveling up to unlock them past 25 if necessary. it's ridiculous that a weapon like the blitzer that you barely need to aim gets iron sights but the 'judicator, 'mendment, and dcs dont.
>>528377042Sentries work best as fire support and distractions rather than your main source of damage. The gatling sentry is a lot less ammo efficient compared to the machine gun, and has double the cooldown time, so the machine gun is more likely to be up when you need it.
It's also a LOT less likely to cut you and your squad in half.
>>528377260pls understand small indie studio game very hard to make
>>528376667>never used itNot wrong honestly. I've used it like once at level 30 and then never again. But the other ~5 times I've seen this thing used by other people, it honestly did not impress me.
>>528377260Iron sight is dog shit, kys
>>528377136It's mostly just leviathans shitting on heavy armor on squids. You can manage otherwise. Backpack stratagems basically solve heavy's squid woes outright. Your favorite flavor of guard dog kills the voteless, supply pack gives you a bottomless pile of grenades to leave in your wake (I recommend sparklers) along with stims for sprinting, and jetpack outright just makes you more mobile.
>>528371551patched on may 27th
>>528377353>I've used it like once at level 30 and then never againSeems like this for most people. They use it once, kill their entire squad on accident with one rocket and then nevery try it again.
It is a good and fun weapon but the learning curve is steep and the punishment for fucking up is huge.
>>528377136If you run heavy armour on predator bugs you need really strong CC to help prevent you from getting raped by constantly aggro. So you're pretty much going to be be married to the gas dog.
>>528377392Yeah squids aren't so bad, like once I figured out I can just stick voteless to a lightning pole / flame turret.
They're pretty fun.
Honestly shouldn't bitch about them too much.
They also have hot waifus.
>>528377504Forgot about gas dog actually. Maybe I'll try that, but probably won't touch bugs again solo for a bit.
They just pigeon hole me too much with my build, while everything that counters bots is fun to bring.
>>528377151I like gatling vs squids, but honestly if I could take MG sentry twice vs squids without cheating then I would. I mostly use it as a 'worse' MG sentry when MG is on cooldown.
>but it requires some brainpower to properly place or it will mow down your squadjust chuck it "away" from the team and preferably towards the left or right flank relative to you and the enemy. EZPZ. Damn near all sentries should be tossed way the fuck away from the team. This isn't teamfortress 2. You don't need to babysit the sentries. I guess AC and Rocket need a tad bit of babysitting but they still should be off on a ridgeline where they're not going to randomly flag somebody. Even if enemies manage to swarm an MG or gatling sentry to death, it's still a win since it pulled the blob of enemies away from the team.
>>528377136i use the peak physique heavy armor on bugs with hmg on max rpm and it works pretty well. you still get swarmed but the increased handling and fire rate pretty much solve that for you.
supply pack and needle booster help as well for outsprinting them when you do need to run. heavy armor is doable on bugs for sure, you just have to think heavy
>>528377474The post I replied to was talking about the Orbital though
>>528377364but it's fun, immersive, and rewarding
what does resistance mean in planets?
easier enemies or what?
>>528362596>car is EFaggot cant drive
>>528377607A trick that I do with voteless is I just pop them in the thigh with the talon. It's a bigger target than their head, and it reduces them to a crawling bleed out animation.
I've also been using the arcdog a lot. The teamkiller 9000 is really fucking good at fucking over anything that isn't a fleshmob or harvester. You just probably want to consider pressing 5 to dock the thing when teammates are near. It does make soloing objective pretty comfy though. You do need to be careful about purple explosive barrels. There are an obnoxious number of them loitering around squid city POIs.
>>528375830>autocannon B on bot and buginsane
>>528377607Oh yeah, predator bugs in general are a hard counter to solo gameplay. Like, even with gas dog providing really good peel you're gonna get swarmed down eventually because you don't have teammates to help kill all the shit the gas dog is CC'ing.
>>528377751Orbital airburst is F-tier against all factions. Don't confuse it with the airburst from 12 months ago. It was "buffed" since then (actually giga nerfed but the swedes though it was buff since they don't play the game).
>>528377662Its' funny because that's exactly what I brought.
Had to double check the wiki though when my shots weren't staggering them.
>>528377813I've been on the jetpack quest just because I like being mobile. Wasn't honestly too impressed with the arc dog, but I only used it for like 2 missions per faction. Been kinda in a big boom mood, but I might give it a try tomorrow.
Haven't TKed my friend lately so it'd be a good to get on that right away.
>>528377813>A trick that I do with voteless is I just pop them in the thigh with the talon.As much as I like the Talon, I do miss the feeling of unloading the fucking Verdict into a crowd of Voteless and just kneecapping all of them.
>>528377992I think the main "problem" with the arc dog, besides its propensity to teamkill, is that it is just really slow at pivoting. It's like comparing the AC sentry to the MG sentry. The other guard dogs are way more mobile and are a bit better at the "kill the one voteless that sneaks up behind you" thing. But the arc dog has more firepower once it is brought to bear.
>>528377607>They also have hot waifus.Based.
>>528377860Yeah man. Doing co-op 2 man runs with pred strain had us back against the wall shooting into bugs dead sprinting as us each breach. Was pretty refreshing, also tense as hell.
>>528375830I've never user quasar one single time because back when i started playing it was considered to be a reddit meme and constantly derided by /hdg/ so why is it suddenly s tier
>>528378161My problem is that I can never tell when it's charged, and I can't control where it's looking.
I had the thing 180 on me, and zap a nigger right next to my teammate without warning.
It's like trying to reason with a pitbull and a baby.

>buggood on chaff and alphas but takes too long to kill chargers and titans. takes up a backpack slot that is better used for something else.
>>528375228teleport boot failed :(
>>528378204Nta, but it's AT that leaves your backpack slot open, doesn't run out of ammo, and reloads itself. I personally prefer the RR or AC, but I see why people still enjoy it.
>>528378289Kek
>>528377917Honestly it's a more consistant chaff shredder on bots than gatling is.
I know it gets a lot of flak - heh - but in my experience the scariest stuff on bots is the chaff and factory striders. Everything else just sorta melts.
I'd probably bring eagle cluster instead, especially on wide open maps against bots. But airburst really does some nasty stuff. Least when I used it.
Granted I still can't really justify it over taking a 3rd bombardment.
>Light Gunner armour with the Lawmaker helmet + jump pack.

>>528378289bless.
make more
>>528378262Unfortunately it does tend to be in your best interest to press '5' and recall the arcdog when friendlies are nearby. So as a downside that kind of makes it a "dead stratagem" when teammates are near, but hopefully you don't really need a guard dog covering you when teammates are near.
Whether or not the arcdog is useful largely depends on how often that you find yourself running off solo to do things. The other dogs are a bit more useful if you're exclusively sticking with the group.

>>528378486hd1 or 2? someone keeps posting hd1 links without labeling and I don't want to open the game for nothing
>>528378468Yeh.
I usually stick to the team, but I've been doing more scouting stuff lately so I could try it when I'm off on a tard venture.
Appreciate the talk tho anon. Think I'mma pass out now.
>>528378430Strafing run mogs just the other option on bots. You have five charges, it's not going to randomly teamkill somebody 50m away, and there is zero need for a wide area hits since bots are almost always clustered up in tight packs since the largest concentrations of enemies are either marching single file in patrols or are being dropped off in a blob by a dropship. Strafing also pulls double duty as anti-tank/anti-turret.
>>528378468I always get forward when using arcdog, seems to work
>>528378374>leaves your backpack slot openthis is way less relevant than you think it is
backpacks are training wheel items, you shouldn't have much of a use for any of them once your game is done what advanced
>>528378587>>528378486Helldivers 2
and also 3/4 come nut in bugussy with fellow anons we dont judge...until i do
>>528378639desu I don't take strafing run because it's too good.
The fact it kills factories is silly
>>528378729>done whatsomewhat
>>528378729NTA, but if you have an empty backpack slot you can do shit like pick up empty resupply packs or carry ammo for whoever else is running gear like recoiless. Lotta the time I just bring a support weapon and swipe my buddies second supply pack.
>>528378729I know, I'm just saying it how it is.
>>528378701Against the bugs it does. Squids outright spawn voteless out of thin air behind lamp posts within ~10m of you.
>>528378856Fair but that just further proves how optional they are.
>>528378581Concession accepted.
>>528378729>YOU CAN'T USE BACKPACKS BECAUSE......YOU JUST CAN'T, OKAY?Dilate, nigger.
Man I hope they buff precision strike. I actually like using it, but it really needs gatling barrage's cooldown or something.
>>528379194Precision strike needs a 30 second cooldown.
>>528379265That'd honestly be amazing, but maybe a bit overkill.
Maybe they should give charges to orbitals like they do eagles.
>>528378289Thank you, substitute drawfriend.
>>528379342You know what, I like that idea.
>>528379076you can use backpacks, but they're a scrub badge and don't belong in high tiers, they're not that powerful
>b-but muh supply pack grenade spam stratnot
that
powerful
>>528379413yeh
Maybe we'll see something like that.
When we had the orbital stacking I'd just bring stacks of precision strike and it was like making my own mini 380 strike.
I can tell you it was a lotta fun.
>>528378729This honestly, the backpack slot isn't terribly important and it will cost you a second stratagem slot to fill it compared to just bringing an RR that shits all over the QC
To this day QC remains the mark of a retard to me, especially if they bring it with the shieldpack
>>528379679too busy gooning to bugs
>>528377447>patched on may 27thIt happed to me TODAY
22ND OF JUNE
this game is so lonely
nobody uses voice chat
nobody talks
>>528379816then one of your dumbass teammates was standing next to it, or put an emplacement near it, or told SEAF to stand next to it
>>528379880as it should be
>>528379505Orbitals are a bigger crutch than backpacks will ever be, retard.
Difference is, backpacks like supply and jet are fun (and strong) to use unlike Orbitals that require only one input for you to get a x100 for free.
>>528377042They both have their uses.
MG Sentry has a super short cooldown, so you can throw it down with zero commitment and make small skirmishes all the easier. It doesn't have a lot of kill potential because it has less DPS, but if it doesn't bring you results then you don't really care because the next one can be ready quite quickly.
Gatling Sentry has a bit longer cooldown so you have to make a conscious decision to use the stratagem and commit to whatever engagement you're in. However, it does more than twice the damage and will kill shit dead wherever you are. Where the MG Sentry might get a dozen kills and have trouble keeping up if enemy numbers get a bit much, Gatling will shred through everything without a care in the world. However, since it's more valuable you have to make an effort to place it somewhere that it'll do the most good, and as other anons said it's effectively an uncontrollable bullet hose, so if it even so much as points in your general direction chances are pretty good that you'll be sitting out the next few seconds while waiting for your teammates to reinforce you.
>>528379580>To this day QC remains the mark of a retard to meit's decent if you bring it to the right biome/faction/loadout i.e. bots, snow planet, and a punchy primary to rely on for anything that doesn't require ap4+
>>528379880it's a European game. As yuropeans we go outside if we want company. Bideo games are considered alone time, whether they're in multiplayer or not, which is the correct way of seeing it imo, talking over a mic isn't a genuine form of socializing.
>https://www.nexusmods.com/helldivers2/mods/5922
The guy who made the excellent audio mods for the silent enemies has now made a weapon sound mod. Finally something using improved vanilla/OC sounds instead of ripping it from another game.
>>5283752282/4, we need moar for seige boss sarr
>>528380014For me QC is good with light or medium armor and capable of kiting.
Killing one heavy every 18 some seconds is honestly pretty solid. Don't need to fumble with eats, or sit still and reload the gun. You shoot and go back to shooting.
It's just not really "fun" in my experience compared to eats.
I don't quite know why, when it has the hallmarks of expectations and payoff. But Eats just feel a bit more satisfying.
>>528380271we play hd2 around here
>>528379880I usually don't do online multiplayer games specifically because I don't want to have to listen to some 85 IQ retard shouting into his $15 headset mic, or a 10 year old kid talking shit to me like he's some hard fucking gangster, or some nigger in the middle of a domestic dispute featuring crying niglets.
All communication needed is done automatically by the game as you play it, anything extra special can be TYPED out like CIVILIZED image board user.
If you hear you talking into your mic, I will mute you, even if that means losing a reinforcement from the budget when I get killed while using the menu.

is it autismo to use stratagems based on how cool they look to you?
>>528381223That's the opposite of autism, bakatard.
>>528381223no because the coolest looking stratagems are also the most effective ones
>>528380679>Squid win by being boring again + leviathan bullshit.Is this how these devs seriously want to balance this faction?
>>528381223Not really thats like the complete opposite of autismo, if you were using ones you hated just because they were good then that would be.
t. Brings Railcannon Strike because its cool
>>528381036I mean that's true, that's usually why I don't like bringing em. I like watching stuff die when I shoot it.
But sometimes you just need more DPS or a distraction.
Honestly lotta shit kills stuff for you in this game.
>>528381350ORCS would be a high A tier on a lean (like double digits) cooldown and niggers don't even get to complain about an autoaim stratagem if they ever picked a sentry, guard dog, or laser orb.

do you think they haven't released the leaked red strategems like the carpet bomb and shredder missile because of the team kill potential? They look like they blow almost a quarter of the map
>>528381469If Arrowhead care about their community becoming a bunch of nigger teamkillers they wouldn't have dropped the arc dog into the game like they did.
>>528381469they legit can't make them work, hax0rs report stuff like no damage, also crahshes because obviously those would happen
>>528379580RR is overkill on everything that's not a heavy bug seed or a bot mission with a factory strider convoy.
>To this day QC remains the mark of a retard to meJust say you can't aim, sister.
>>528379880They generally have nothing important to say.
>>528381469I think one they're tied to some gay clan shit allegedly.
Two I dont know the footage I saw looked kinda sketchy and unfinished.
I also can't really see a use case for a 20 minute strategem. It's like laser orbital but worse.
Can anyone sell me on laser orbital?
It feels like a slot waster when you have more than what you need. People swear by it like it's a get outta jail free card, but it just feels like it makes you get into those situations by wasting a slot.
>>528379880https://youtu.be/an1bP_s2_cI?t=240
>>528381727it's was very nice to have when barrages were still shit. nowadays 120, 360, and walking barrage will do more for you.
>>528381432Yeah I think if they topped it out around 90s with full upgrades (comparing to OPS' 70-something seconds with full upgrades) it'd be a strong contender for a worthwhile slot just to have a pocket heavy-deleter, every time I take it I forget just how abyssmally long the cooldown really is.
>>528381869I only take it when I feel like I don't need full blown high performers in all my slots, a bonus pick basically. But yeah if you make the big mistake to rely on it the extreme cooldown simply won't let you.
Masters of Ceremony, Viper Commandos or COPS? Interested with all those three desu
>>528379880there's one or two fags in this general who use mics
they're very nasally and I mute them each time
>>528379580>QC remains the mark of a retardThat has always been the light armour + diaper shield + railgun combo for me. I see that and I know they're going to try their hardest to play the game solo. It has been this way since launch too, even before that weapon got nerfed and everything else buffed. I've just got to remember to boot them when I see they're on the other side of the map trying to clear an outpost that we would have got to on the way back to extract.
I forget to use my 4th strategem regularly typically it's a sentry
>>528381767>folds after one replyDamn, you double digit IQ niggers really like talking shit without putting any actual thought into it, huh.
>>528381727It's less dangerous than the 380 or 120 barrage to near so throwing it into an outpost or side objective and moving in while it's active is viable.
>>528378486we back to 3/4 come fuck the bug
I think ORC is fine in cooldown because you get a free heavy clear every breach. And it's not like you're gonna throw it out when shits not going down.
I think the problem honestly is the power creep. Like you get two 500s to kill multiple heavies. Then you get rockets which all one tap it. Eats for instance are a 90 some second cool down, and you get two heavy kills every time. And it just compounds the more time you waste in a location.
Then there's shit like thermites which are just ORCs but a grenade, or ultimatum which is just a pocket precision strike.
I think reds just kinda fell off.
>>528382153lord of war is so fucking kino
watched it yesterday
Eagle rocketpods would be a competitive AT option if they were reliable
Instead these pieces of shit miss chargers and hulks half the time and can't one shot any of the real heavies
>>528382101Masters if you want a bayonet gun or some OP armor
Viper if you want to use BIG GUNS, and yellow stims (the carbine is godly when upgraded).
COPS needs a little more time in the oven. Might see it fixed next patch.
Me? Id say viper.
EAT + MG Sentry all fronts all day all week
>>528382286They're a chaff softener, but the targeting on them got fucked. They used to tap bile titan heads repeatedly and get them down to weak break points.
>>528350461All of these things are coming soon, Justice sooner than others.
I miss when impacts were meta.
They're obscenely fun to throw honestly. I wanted to try HE grenades, they're fun too, but god they just kinda suck at everything. Still fun to throw, maybe I need to airburst em more.
>>528382216It's whole point is that you don't need to aim. I think the cooldown should be a little bit shorter but that's because I play 10s and have to deal with multiple heavies constantly. On d6 used by someone who struggles on that difficulty it's probably a consistent lifesaver with how effective it is, how little heavies you come across, and how small the teamkill potential is.
>>528350461>>528382375They need to go back to HD1 where you can fuck up objectives if they take damage
>>528382375Freedom bless you justice poster.
Looking at the leaked stats I think it's basically the same as the warrant.
>>528382454Use the frags. May more damage, shrapnel is fun, shorter fuse, and I think you get five of them. Wait about one second to cook it before throwing for a good airburst at the range you'd usually throw a grenade.
>>528382470It does feel weird playing lower difficulties and realizing how basic the game is.

>>528387113Either make it be the boss map (if you don't feel like doing these all the way up to D20).
Or limit the number of reinforces while also cutting the mission timer in half.
Or alternatively, introduce some sorta mega base maps, where the whole map is effectively a single large enemy base that you gotta take down.
>>528387113Start with 10 minutes, every side objective gives you like 2 minutes, and every objective gives you 5 minutes to the timer.
>>528387118Neither of us had any, but two randos came in and saved our asses with them kek
>>528387113each d11 mission comes in one of three varieties
red: max 12 reinforcements
blue: max 2 stims on you
green: resupply cooldown increased by 110%
all with increased spawns, bigger enemy call-ins, and more objectives
every op would have one of each color
also no short format missions, always 3x40min missions, no quarter for gamerdads with max 90 mins of wifey-permitted game time

Havent played since they attempted to change the flamer to not pierce through enemies and ended up fucking collision in the process (like a 395 days according to the last major order completed,) what is the most short gist of what changed since then besides squids
Is the LMG turret still comically strong? Is the eruptor great again?
Is there a lobby of gamers wanting to play?

>>528392336there are some black sheep in our midst yes but that wasn't always the case, /hdg/ used to be populared by nothing but gods of autism that would rape the enemy to perfection whenever they played. a new player would get protected, taught, and showered in samples.
what changed? it was the inevitable consequence of the 60 day reddit-mandated anti-ableist game balancing compliance agenda.
a rep of of headache-inducing difficulty + micromanagement is good and healthy for a game. helldivers 2 never was too difficult, but the normies thought it was. now it's too easy and most people just refuse to be good, opting instead for playstyles that maximize tiktokable teamkill situations and other assorted le funny moments without much thought put into anything else. i.e. being an ace got disincentivized, being a retard is now the passable norm. lowering the bar. it always seems like a good idea until some time passes.

>>528393920it's an edit and I know it upsets him
>>528393294Keep in mind that it's not about the ability to be good, it's about motivation to be good. If you can pass the mission with ease, spare time, and +70% reinforcement budget intact by bumrushing the map while being on the lousiest, lowest dps, least synergized goof loadout, why would you go through the effort of playing smart? Why learn item + enemy attributes, optimal tactics, and target priority? If you really enjoy doing all these things then yeah, you'll be good and still have fun even in the most cancerous squads, but most people just don't bother beyond making things explode and don't mind dying their way to victory so that's 95% of the player's you're getting. It's just not the same level of passion that we had before. tl;dr indifference issue, not skill issue.

>>528397861The blob is already there and veld is further from the middle of the map. Those are the two deciding factors. Your supply lines, tactics, and regen rates are fucking meaningless to brownoid golems.

it's honestly hopeless. even if they did release the new squids, there's probably some way AH fucks it up and they won't be any fun playing against, the fleshmobs and Leviathan is just foreshadowing how AH has no fucking idea to make any new fun enemies anymore. That leaked warstrider will also be a pain to fight (not in a fun way)
I actually had a dream about HD2 today despite not playing for over a month.
There was a bunch of new bots running around, like a huge multi-treaded tank the size of the dog and helmets had perks like being able to detect weakpoints and even the APC because it lives in my subconscious apparently.
Maybe I'll go take a nap and have a chance at resuming that dream.

their dynamic of having cannonfodder swarm you while the actual threats (flying cunts) pick you off demands more situational awareness and a better decision-making instinct than bots or bugs do
zombies get cucked hard by shooting them in the legs, with only the fleshpounds being dangerous in cqc due to their bullet sponge nature
overseers are a joke until they go into melee range, and elevated oversaars tend to have bullshit accuracy at times
i wish stingrays would spawn more often, and hopefully, squids get more units that can call in reinforcements.

>>528412346Leviathan counterplay is having a brain and not running into areas with no cover if you hear they're close, or straight up picking the shield relay and invalidating their whole gimmick

>>528412715>counterplay on flat open maps against an airborne enemy that shoots down on you>counterplay is bringing a shield that goes down in 1-2 volleysSo there is no counterplay. Leviathans are a flat RNG death tax. You might as well just have a modifier that's -5 reinforcements.

>>528412525Arc thrower needs a huge buff, unironically. The charge up time on that thing is atrocious, and I want more, lower damaging arcs that do literally anything at all to the wave of chaff at my feet. I do not want to use fucking chain lightning to slowly kill big enemies through their armor, that's boring as fuck. The arc thrower was shit before buff divers era and has been hardly touched since then so not only was it objectively bad it is now comparably even worse.

>>528381560i dont like this trend of people calling the pelican early but telling everyone not to get in. i never saw this before a few months ago, did some youtube fag tell everybody to do it? they always act like it's a great tactical decision but i think theyre just scared of a hairy last minute extract situation so they need that safety net of pre-pelican, and that's gay.

i like how we get weapon config slots for each weapon despite there only being one correct 'build' for each gun
>>528416425Trust the plan they'll be useful once we get 5 different ammo types and more attachments.
>>528416425Each gun with mag options has at least 3 viable builds - one for drums, one for default mags and one for short mags. Some, like the non-carbine Libs, have 4 since the drum mag can then split into an ergo-focused and a recoil-focused build.

How to fix the game for the next difficulty
>Bot needs their accuracy back and that would solves most of the bot issue. Maybe some units like gunship should get more body armor back because engine weakness is enough. Dropship kill should only kill the basically troopers.
>Bug needs 2 shot AT headshots titan and behemoth. Also, maybe thermite should be nerf a bit because one thermite for a behemoth is just too good. The damage from spewers should be up. They probably need another range regular unit as well. Maybe impaler attack should be buffed a bit because right now, it seems like it has performance anxiety because it just raise the tentacles but don't even perform the attack most of the time.
>Squid is almost perfect. The units is well designed for now even if the Leviathan is a bit obnoxious. Maybe in the the higher difficulty, if they increase the overseer spawn ratio, they would be exciting to fight. They can use a few more new units as well.
are you diving into hell right now?
need all the help we can get.
>>528429235>remember when the game was a chore to play?>yeah bring that back
>I'm no numbermancer but the terminid goal looks kinda impossible
>more than half of all active players are on bugs and will be lucky to get half the goal within 3d18h so even if another third of the playerbase goes on bugs it'll still look very unlikely
>>528429235the perfect solution for gunships is to give the front thrusters class 5 armor and only let the smaller, harder to hit hind thrusters remain class 3.
there should be a giant version of the charger.
jut delete leviathans, bring on the rest of the units, and squids will be mint.
>>528429354The game is mobile game tier right now. Might as well have auto-play
>>528429360so you're implying the goal is possible? because it looks like the thread should go into MO ignore mode and not dive bugcancer for no reason
>>528429431There was nothing wrong with behemoth. One shot headshot is a mistake for the charger and that's why behemoth had to exist, but now we need even another charger variant because they nerfed behemoth as well? The charger is useless when AT easily take them out with a shot to the giant head. Thermite trivialize them even further.
>>528429354chore to play for incapable plebeians
well practiced expert players were fine
>>528429431Gunship was perfectly fine with all thruster being class 3. They didn't need to make the body class 3 as well
>>528429468>Lets remove all counterplay from the game. Thats what gamers like
>>528429695I agree, it was a pointless nerf. My solution is to not spawn the regular charger on high diffs anymore and instead bring on a giant charger that has the size, health pool, armor, and durability of a factory strider. Bug heavies are bitch made they need a real one.
what if they added futa penises to all factions
>>528429876>Lets remove all challenge from the game. Thats what gamers like
>>528429354Ragdoll spam and instakills are peak gameplay actually
>>528429876How is it removing "counterplay"?
man I get squidder fatigue but ppl could at least try to finish liberating Alairt III at this point
>>528429870I keep forgetting that because I always just hit the thrusters. Even when you shoot gunships from 700m away you can still hit the thrusters. What a pointless nerf.
Fourth faction should be dissidents that use our own weaponry against us
And then they should also add a pvp mode where you can join the dissidents and fight against super earth

>>528430174You can't see it right now, but I'm focusing super hard to blow your home up with my mind
>>528430291starts tonguekissing you
>>528429969The problem with bug is that they NEED the heavy unit to break the line and cause some chaos for other units to do anything. They are so vulnerable to being funneled and fucked by AOE and turrets. The heavy needs to not instantly die without much resistance so that other bugs can be a threat
>>528430174I agree but plebbit would bitch about the lack of cartoony sovlfulness in a human enemy faction
pvp would make them cry cry about getting farmed by brapdiver and AMR/DMR nerd for 5 hours each session
>>528430148Probably a nerf for a console players or something because they struggle to hit a moving target even with laser or AC
>>528430450The issue with that is that if you can't reliably kill the heavies which cause the most chaos and are being the most annoying (implying you don't just run and ignore everything which is the most optimal bug strategy), everyone is just going to compensate by bringing 4 RR and EATs every single match. Which was sure fun back then where every mission was the same exact loadout between all four players.
>>528430658I have no idea why those morons don't just add kb/m support to the PS5 version and put the issue to rest that way. UT3 did it in 2007.

>gunslinger passive increases draw speed but slows the sidearm animations
It's just visual but can they really not do anything right?
>>528430450Agree 100%. In the current state of the game bug heavies are just large sized chaff with some useless token armor. The entire faction is chaff and can just be bombed with very little brainpower involved. The small and medium sized enemies can be genuinely threatening and cause you to think fast if they flakn you or catch you off step, but the situations in which that happens are extremely rare now. Especially if you use A+ tier gigacrutches like guard dogs or gas grenades.
I miss when melting leg armors on chargers was optimal I felt like I was opening up a weak spot for the team
squids are going to become way more cancer to play against when these fuckers are enabled to spawn in game, right?
>>528430784People only run that many AT because they al have that lingering fear of their teammates not doing the AT well enough It was honestly better when a team run 2 AT and 2 mob clear and extra AT can be be provided by other stratagem. Even turrets, airstrike, and orbitals got so good at AT that heavy for bugs didn't need those nerf.
I think diff 10 should require players to lock in split between fighting, doing obj, and moving well. It doesn't demand anything from the player atm
>>528430064>Challenge is when the player cant do anything to counter the games mechanics>>528430072>Bro, just let bots drop their strongest units on us without any chance to hinder them
>>528431407they will be solved by aimgods with max dpr energy but if your loadout is too spray focused you will suffer yes
>>528431474But you have all the tools to kill those "strong" units. I don't think bot faction should just be dropship shooting gallery. It's dumb when a single person in AT emplacement clear the whole drop in highest difficulty
>>528430784People didn't bring 4 RR and EAT's, they brought 4x OPS and 2-4 500kg along with a couple EATs.
Shooting the heavies didn't kill them fast enough. Only reds did. So you learned to lead your beacons to take down titans and toss a stun on chargers to kill 'em.

>>528431701This is cope. Only shitters ever had trouble with bug heavies. They were always easy to kite, easy to take out with AT. 500kg and OPS fell off on bugs because barrages, sentries, thermites, and Eagle strafing run became better.
>Takes meta build to every front
>Gets mad when the meta build stomps everything
>Refuses to change his ways
>Demands everyone else changes
Yep. Thats a troon.
>>528431946500 blowing up under a titan killed it. But yeah, it was hard to get right. So you'd often end up kiting a titan for about a minute as you waited for your EAT or OPS to come off cooldown. And as an added bonus the EATs sometimes just didn't do anything because of buggy hitboxes so you could end up having even more fun!
>>528431946It was still pretty easy to drop 500 kg on titan because it's easy to bait them into spit or stomp. After turrets were buffed, they became great AT stratagem as well. i believe titan/behemoth should be 2 shot headshot for standard AT and 1 shot with SPEAR with how strong other stratagems are to supplement AT. There is no reason to use SPEAR right now. Remember that titan were bugged back then so that they tanked more than 2 AT shots or 500 kg regularly.
