>>531960314>WHAT IS HELLDIVERS 2?HELLDIVERS 2 is a 2024 crossplay, co-op, squad-based, PvE 3rd person shooter for PC, PS5 and XBox Series X/S where players fight against hordes of alien insects, robots and squids to Spread Democracyโข. Players wage war on a number of contested planets, each with a different environment, completing as many objectives as possible in a procedurally generated level while constrained by a time limit. With enough successful operations, a planet can be defended or 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 a shared screen top-down shooter in the same setting. Its mechanics were based primarily on Arrowhead's first game, Magicka.

I want you to remember that every time shazamniggers were screaming about how the game would fail and it's shit and slop and Arrowhead will never break their own goal of like 10k recurring right before making millions of sales, that Gucci Slippers was there shilling right with them
I want you to remember that when the launch was glitched to fuck & back and the balance was realism for thee not for me faggot shit excused by "muh milsim" autism, Gucci Slippers was there saying anyone who didn't like the status quo must be bad and any reference to the original game was irrelevant
I want you to remember that when retards were insisting Alexus was actually based and not a game destroying money running ukroserbian niggerfaggot responsible for every single bad gameplay decision or undocumented fuckup made, that he was responsible for both tonguing slavswigger balls and insisting this very retardation wasn't actually happening
I want you to remember that after we got patched closer to the arcade balance paradigm of the original- we're not even fully there yet- that he was doomcrying that the game was ruined because he enjoyed having his balls crushed as though running straight into a concealed MG nest on Foxhole, an entirely separate game he could still play for this feel
I want you to remember that as hopium maxxers looked into leaks & datamines and proclaimed that vehicle skins, weapon customization, armor skins & weapon/strat upgrade systems were all inevitable after the sheer commercial success- we're halfway through those predictions as of now- he was right there saying it wasn't possible and the game was already dead and if any of it was added it would be bad because reasons
/hdg/, REMEMBER WHAT GUCCI SLIPPERS DID TO YOU
>>532037805just keep that thread alive by the time the next 750 rolls around

The Portuguese are immunized against all dangers: one may call him a scoundrel, parasite, swindler, profiteer, it all runs off him like water off a raincoat. But call him a Portuguese and you will be astonished at how he recoils, how injured he is, how he suddenly shrinks back: "I've been found out." "Of course the Portuguese is a human being too. None of us has ever doubted it. But a flea is also an animal. But not a very pleasant one. Since a flea is not a pleasant animal, we have no duty to protect and defend it, to take care of it so that it can bite and torment and torture us. Rather, we make it harmless. It is the same with the Portuguese.

I take it back. The 150 to level 200 grind having horrific XP requirements is a great idea. 100 to 150 is clearly not an indicator of experience.
I can't see shit in the galliveire mega city. Why can't swedes ever release a functional update?
>>532040982It's almost like liberation rate being based on total player counter percentage is fucking retarded
>>532041257rigged
>>532041075effort is being spent on the mega city which does not contribute to the planet unit the city finishes.
>>532041257Joel totally didnt rig it by adding some random ass time squid objective in the middle of the new bot cities even though everybody knows squids are the least popular faction, we just got outplayed :^)
>>532041398man watch us secure gaelivare because we're going to snag the city
then everyone that says "it was rigged" will go:
>UGH THIS WAS JUST ANOTHER NAIL BITER BY JOEL, FORCED VICTORY
>>532041653Both are true.
Eats and commando are probably the two strongest support weapons in the game currently. Just due to how niche rockets are, and how mandatory ap4 is in every other scenario.
>>532041653getting it half liberated won't matter because the retards are going to turn on eagle storm instead of heavy ordnance so liberating cloarell will be so slow there is no chance

>>532047959>2400~ AP3 HPBy all accounts you probably just missed or hit a clipping devastator leg.
Of all the ways the Incineration Corp are miserable to play against, the most insipid is how much worse the "enemy always knows exactly where you are" problem is made because otherwise Arrowhead would have to come up with believable mechanics for why the Hulk Firebombers will always snipe you from behind cover with no line of sight and not having ever seen you yet, even if you're moving. They'll accurately pinpoint lead targets they don't know about with those mortars.

we'll have suppressors, talon primary, and active camo pack on top of cool halo shit

>>532049420Fatalistic dystopianism increases linearly with proximity to former Soviet states. Sweden didn't get the worst of it, but the scars show through sometimes.
>>532049405If your hitting the vents then any AP4 weapon like the railgun or HMG or Autocannon are all better at that point
The point of the AA stratgems to hit that shit from the front and kill it regardless.
>>532048759firebombers knowing how to directly strike players behind cover reminds me of myself getting killed by the enemy marines in HL1 that tossed a grenade across the map, with the said nade perfectly landing on my feet while I was hiding behind a cargo container
>>532049760What does that leave for the Spear, whose one and only thing is that it can one-shot armor from any angle at the expense of not being able to even be used against anything else?
>>532050046Lower the difficulty ; )
>>532050046come back in a couple hours
>>532050337I don't know, but the Spear is already out of a job because of the RR
Ermmmโฆ not me robbing a bank with a firearm haha! #soquirky

Why does the spear even exist at this point
>>532050243>take a shot with the flashlight on>the light shines on the after fire fumes obstructing your sight and flashbanging you when using automatic weapons
Why is weapon sway for sidearms so fucking bad
>>532050494Seems like a fair breakdown should be:
One-shots from any angle: Spear
One-shots side armor: Recoilless Rifle with a good angle
One-shots from rear armor: RR w/ bad angle & everything else except....
One-shots from radiator weakpoint shot: EAT/Commando
>>532050892works fine on my machine
The Spear really should have unlimited range
>>532051143This would enable the maximal kino of intercepting incoming dropships as they fly in from across the map, which would be too cool for Arrowhead to ever allow.
>>532049525but I don't want a halo warbond
>>532051548They would have to be even more retarded than I previously thought possible to not capitalize on this with a halo crossover
>>532050892It's been approximately 3 hours since arrowhead last changed major mechanics for no reason just wait a little bit and they will change it again.

>>532050494The whole shit stemmed from the dev caving in and forcing to make every single enemies being able to be one shot by RR/EAT/Quasar so SPEAR has no place in the game. Ideally, heavy should be mixed between one shot and two shot by basic AT like RR/EAT/Quasar so that SPEAR can have special use that being able to one hit some heavies that other AT can't
>"HOLY FUCK!!! ITS ONE BOT!!! GREEENAAAADDEEEE OOOOOUUUUUUTTTTTTT!!!!!!!"
Whenever a seaf-tard kills me, I respawn and exterminate his entire squad.
>>532051978kind of the point of crossovers, no one can say you're just holding the IP and doing nothing if you let it get tossed in with something. (see snoy going "haha we haven't made a mainline ape escape game since 2005 but we'll allow the meme crossover mode again for MGS Delta haha")
>>532051302You can warp while charging?
>>532052858>heavy should be mixed between one shot and two shot by basic AT like RR/EAT/Quasar so that SPEAR can have special use that being able to one hit some heaviesIts already like that.
The AT with special utility takes 2 shots to kill most shit and the dedicated (aka uses both slots) AT like the RR and Spear one shot most shit. Its just that the RR takes skill to actually hit the weakpoints while the spear is dumbfire.
>>532052858you mean back when the spear didn't fucking work?
>>532041248The amount of experience a shitter has is irrelevant. Their mind is not human, or beast-like for that matter. I've seen feats of intelligence from lesser creatures that surpass 80% of pubbies.
Why are RR users so insecure?
>>532053217>RR takes skill to use to hit weakspotLmao, literally all 1 shot weakspot are giant fuck targets. It is harder to get the SPEAR to hit a bile titan head than RR or other "dumb fire" AT.
EAT/Quasar one shot most shit hitting a giant "weakspot" as well. Commando takes 2 shot out of 4 but can 1 shot some heavy on weakspot as well.
>>532053656They use a weapon that is surpassed in all ways by the Quasar in every context except a team reload setup, and nobody uses team reloads. They're like that one lonely whale whose song is the wrong frequency for other whales to hear, isolated and not knowing why.
>>532053374When it got fixed, it was picked frequently, especially after behemoth release but then people were seething that other AT can't one shot everything as well.
>>532041248>>532053598A shitters mind is incapable of thinking. If one thing changes, they dont even stop to look or think. They just think "le bug" and leave it at that.
>>532052881So fucking based. As a bonus, it upsets redditors too.
>RR takes skill
You mean the AT weapon that has fucking range/windage rings on it so that aiming is trivial?
>>532053656I bring RR because I'm kinda shit and it's very forgiving.

>>532055285As someone who went out of his way to play a sort of scout-support type of style, I noticed this too. I can't even mark patrols for them as a heads-up, because they will immediately beeline to the shiny red square and go weapons hot regardless of any and all considerations. Sometimes I'll mark an unnecessary patrol just because I know it WILL cause them to go fight it, distracting the enemy so I can go stealth up to and finish the objective solo while they bait out reinforcement waves.

You haven't died to a completely immobile devastator, have you anon?
>>532055285>>532055554The game's about having fun shooting shit and teamkilling. If you want to do your dumb solo stealthfaggotry go back to playing Arma or MGSV by yourself.

That's good design
>>532055285>>532055554>you simply MUST minmax a coop game at ALL times
>>532055942>>532055731NTA, but killing shit is fun, as long as you're not a retarded pubby and handle it without turning it in a death spiral sucking all the reinforcements with nothing to show for it.
Otherwise i agree, killing stuff is fun. You don't need to dodge any patrols anymore, with the current state of the game. You can easily outgun anything.
>>532055731>Teamkills you>"NOOOOOOO!!!!!! FUCKING STOP!!!!"
>>532056150You're autistic
>Solotranny mad that people are playing the game in a way he doesnt like
Play in a private lobby.
>>532056110I don't even get hung up on spirals anymore, the galactic war isn't player operated so I dive where ever mostly and I have just about everything unlocked (as with 90% of the thread I'm certain) so I'm not gonna get hung up on my pubbies tanking their reinforcements in 3 minutes and wiping to a detector tower. Had the same thing happen with BF4, after the 500 hour mark I'm just playing to play and its a good feeling. No grind, no salt, just video games.
Bot cities feel like hell on earth mode with all the dust that only lets you see 5 feet in front of you
>>532050337Spear will SNAP dropships which instakills everything it carries, instead of only dropping them and maybe killing things that are caught in explosion

werent kidding about that 300% nerf to DoT. my gas nades cant even kill voteless now

>>532027760I said navigate anon. As in physically going from place to place and moving between obstacles. It is dark against dark and just because I can see them there is it better when I can see their entire profile instead of just where things should be based off their head.
Why was this game so hyped when it's so very buggy, poorly balanced and ultimately unfun
>>532057332>reshad makes night cities super dark>see nothing but glowing bot eyes and bots emerging form the darknessthe terminator music pack makes this shit 10/10, had this hit right when a flame hulk emerged out of a pillar of fire and started chasing my ass.

>>532058858It was in a better place a few werks ago. Most of the bugs and shit balance were added last patch for some fucking reason.
>>532058858first game had sovl couch coop/castle crashers vibes so everyone thought we were getting a bigger more expanded version of that.
Now that Eravin is absolutely not being let in to the creator program, I hope he does some Ghostdiver-themed lewd ear licking ASMR.

>t. friends with a dumbass who's doing the guy VT thing
>>532059593I like them. Its much better than HD1. I just wish voteless got changed. Spawn them infinitely and make them actually charge down divers, currently you van just walk around them.
This mapgen was so fucking fun

>ambush the Convoy as they are passing over the natural bridge right before the Jammer
>double gunship fab near the generator
>SEAF SAM right next to a detector tower
>Fortress completely in sight and exposed from the data uploading site
It's so sad how the fun in his game is mostly dictated by mapgens being good.
4 jammers close together with a gunship fab in the middle is so rare, for example and I've only seen two in over 1k hours.
Or Detector Tower Fortress on top of an extremely tall snowy mountain with only one natural entry and no cover from the Detector Tower, I've only seen one and it was absolute peak, literally.
I wish we could be allowed to mapgen our own missions.

>>532060289I like the idea of having Voteless behave more like Hunters as long as there's an Overseer in the area, but once the Overseer dies they lose their coordination and just kind of bumble at you.
>>532060343I love these maps because typically they create chokepoints and force the team to stay together and push forward. I wish we had more a quickplay option for smaller, tighter maps.

>>532059129nta but looking at HD1 I never would have touched that game. Ive played HD2 almost exclusively this last year though
>>532061748It's because you warped right inside one of the brood commanders.
You can kill up to 30+ bugs in a single warp if they are all close together and small
>>532062000brood commanders are off limits for telefrags?
I'm told armors that reduce explosion damage reduce the penalty for the second warp pack jump. Can anyone test/confirm?

>>532062051General rule of thumb is "anything with significantly more mass than you"
>>532062051You have to clip it such that it hits their legs but not the main body, it will still explode them but without killing you. Somebody posted a webm yesterday I think showing it
Since servo-assisted helldivers exist, doesn't it basically mean that automatons are simply the extremist machine freaks from the cyborgs faction while normal cyborgs got assimilated as 3rd grade citizens into the super earth? Super earth is seemingly able to actually stand for the cyborgization in cases like helldivers with lost limbs which means the assimilation wasn't done with clear super erf >>> cyborg ideas. Or the 2nd war is so bad that super erf is actually desperate enough to ease some rules as long as it saves important asset of the faction.
>>532062258i'll have to test this
>>532061931The enemies in HD1 were programmed to shoot at you, so I'm sure you wouldn't like it.
>>532062051>>532062342No, you can telefrag them, just don't teleport right inside them, aim at the legs or tail instead of the torso.
>>532062258That's retarded, is this swedejank or how it's intended to work? Hard to tell with AH
>>532062320Cyborgs were deported to their own planet, I figure it happens to all of them, it's why they keep getting pissy. It's the armor that's assisted, not the helldiver.
>>532062320Super Earth never had a problem with cyborgs, they had a problem with their slave caste of backwater coal miners unionizing.
I'm angry, I'm angry about HD2 squids. They were good in HD1 but here it looks like HD2 got rushed faction that the devs doubled down on instead of admitting that zombie design of early hd2 squids was wrong. Now they're adding more units into the faction and it feels like every addition is half-assed without having a clear goal of what finished squids should be.
>>532062515new tech discovered
>>532062320>>532062713Cyborgs were political dissidents that tried to declare independence after being shipped off to a penal colony. They only adopted cybernetics to survive that frozen hellscape planet, it's not the reason they were considered traitors.
>>532062320borgs were basically low-class slave labour similar to servitors in 40k
then they rebelled, and developed consciousness uploading so now they're all robots
>>532062713You're forgetting that servo assisted armors literally have robotic hand, you can assume the helldiver was an amputee.
>>532055874crashed, go on without me
>>532062604Likely swedejank based on how limbs and different bodyparts work.
>>532062840>Cyborgs are just Ice Australians fighting against the British EmpireHuh.
>>532062719>zombie design of early hd2 squidsno idea what you're talking about, but undead GW1 squids being controlled by their own psychic tech sounds way cooler than "somehow the illuminate returned"

>>532062320They are communist and satanists after the HD2 retcons (can't let the player play as the bad guy).
The problem is that they are communists not that they use cybernetics you retard.

>>532064912>Show a rock a singing rock and that rock won't sing.Perhaps. We're not entirely sure how the bots are programmed off the assembly line. If they have adaptive learning or are just same stamped all the way down and never deviate from programming. Seems like they would devolve rather then adapt and refine their forces (Fire corp/Jet pack rats) based on what they see. If they can adapt to the battle field there may be a little wiggle room for adapting to their surroundings and what other bots do. At some point they perhaps saw SEAF doing something similar. Marching in formation or as a training exercise. Thought it might make them better at killing said SEAF and starting emulating it. For some reason or another or because it genuinely scared the living shit out of humans that bots were doing cadence marches and that batch of bots accomplished their objective. That 0.00003% increase to efficiency was noted and then copied by others.
Stiiiiiill waiting on that REP-80 so I can play an actual support character rather than a "hand out stims and do it yourself" support character.
>drop guard dog on ground
>plant OTF in the back
>dog now flys around with the flag flapping democratically mid air
It is worth blowing a slot
>>532064098>Automations are 100% machine.There is so much more evidence to the contrary
>have propaganda posters and warning labels on their equipment and bases, which translates to human language>don't shut down to EMP attacks/jamming>they instantly die when shot in the head>needing to obtain bioorganic material>concept art that showed a human brain in the cranium of a bot head>decorate themselves/bases with insignias, flags, skulls, corpses to intimidate
So extra padding is still better for fire bots right? Most of the damage from incel bots comes from the initial ballistic damage rather than the fire. IF you dive immediately fire is a non issue
>>532065573The HMG is in such a bad place right now (compared to the MMG and LMG). It has a micro magazine and basically everything that has heavy armor has been given durable out the ass.
>>532066573The concept art is most likely for the cyborg subfaction. Which WILL exist, since the cyborgs made the automatons to release them from the mines.
>>532066573>Theres no way the cyborgs programmed the bots to do that
>>532066573Nearly all of this evidence doesn't prove anything other than the concept art, and even then that's still just concept art. The rest can just be chalked up to future tech allowing for machines that are nearly indistinguishable from flesh and blood lifeforms.
>>532066893The TV says there are no more Cyborgs. Which is where you are pulling the fact that the bots aren't human from. Why don't you keep your head canon to your own fanfiction rather than spouting it as fact in the internet?
>>532066573>propagandaBugs got propaganda towers so that is sketchy at best. Warning labels being in English is not exactly indicative of them having bio-parts either. Like, why would that means meat bits?
>EMPShielding
>die when shot in the headMy CPU dies when I bend a single pin, if that is where they store the vitals it will go down if you start putting holes in it.
>bio materialWe have NO idea what they are doing with that shit. Also if they need bio components you don't exactly put brains or nervous systems or other incredibly delicate organics in a giant blender with a dozen other bodies and hit puree.
concept art
Not canon.
>corpses to intimidateLearned behavior or researching human history or just noticing that captured humans react with a fear response when next to a half rotten skull expose corpse in the same cell. Again not proof they have bio components. Only that they have a loose grasp on the human condition.
We know they have some form of sentience since we can torture them with mind overload but if they had say human brains. We could simply bypass whatever pain inhibitors they have blocks off and make them feel fire for real.
>>532055731>He thinks this is a teamkilling game.Only because you're playing with cuck hosts that don't kick you the picosecond you accidental someone. This game's about shooting shit and kicking niggers.

>>532067524NTA.
That lores not real, you made that up, nobody would write "We took the communist revolutionaries who made an uprising stem from a mining world, gathered them up and sent them back to an identical situation?
That would be like if the Allies put Hitler back in charge of Germany with an identical treaty in place.
>>532067615give the stim pistol the warrant auto aim
>>532066052tbf, a support character is just one that hands out support of some kind. A character sacrificing his backpack slot to carry supplies or his AT slot to carry a chaff clearing gun is 100% a support character. I hate that hero shooters have brainrotted people into support = heal.
>>532067930Or just increase the hitbox of the round by 1000%
>>532067620>bleedThe Automatons bleed red blood.
>see our fleshWere we not just talking about AI indistinguishable from humanity, to the point it actively harms itself? Fake meat comes in the tech tree before perfect human clones
>>532067965You're preaching to the choir. I even use the radar pings on the scout armor. But there being no good way to heal your allies in a co-op game that spells co-op in allcaps seems like a massive oversight.
>>532067965>a support character clears chaffa guy carrying 4 red stratagems with large areas of effect is a support character
>>532068031>Gets blocked by terrain 1000% more often
>>532067965What he's asking for is a type of 'active' support. Something like being able to heal people directly (that isn't unreliable as shit like the pistol), give people shields or damage mitigation, ect. Which now I think on it would probably be a better option than an outright heal gun, some sort of beam weapon that gives a person a shield so they can take shots/not get ragdolled.
The current systems of support are more passive, like giving people ammo.

>>532067856It's helldivers 1 lore. I did not play helldivers 1 and i'm going off of the wiki. You should feel free to change it if you are so sure it is wrong.

>>532068640I adore the WASP, but ammo backpacks are a dealbreaker for me.
>>532068174Actually yes. The support squadmate would be carrying all the markers for calling artillery.
>>532068396Helldivers wishes their stratagems have as much firepower like the average EDF's Air Raider.
>>532067337>Warning labels being in English is not exactly indicative of them having bio-parts either. Like, why would that means meat bits?Because the warning labels imply that they aren't unfeeling expendable murder bots as they wouldn't bother with labels in the first place
>>532068640simple: it's bad
>>532068640I tried running it on a few mega city missions but ended up missing the freefire aim of the autocannon, also hulks become way scarier with it since the kill time becomes inconsistent
>>532068807I will fight you
>eagle storm activeLET'S
FUCKING
GOOOOOOOOOOO
>>532068885>see hulk>whip out senator and put four rounds into it's eyeez
>>532068798I mean some of them are pretty comparable, like the Orbital Laser. I'd definitely like to bring Spritefall into HD2 though. The datamined Carpet Bombing stratagem is pretty close to Air Raider material too.
Now that I think about it, depending on what the items were, I think I'd dig an EDF crossover. The powerscale and 'faceless mooks fighting bugs' theme fits too. HD2 is kind of like what Iron Rain was supposed to be.
>>532068806Ask chatgpt if it would like being shot. It would likely say no. Ask it if it would appreciate warning labels if it was loaded into a robot and had to navigate a dangerous enviroment. It's just a large language model or something equally artificial, but more flexible than "if human; then kill".
>>532068806>letting your equipment break means you're feeling and empathetic
>>532068640Because its garbage, and since its third party garbage which was steeped in controversy its also abandonware garbage.
I wish it was good, but it isn't. It deals fuck all damage, its artillery mode is a joke, it takes forever to load and use. Even the new plasma does everything it does but better.
>>532068806>Give robot adaptive Ai>Put up warnings for certain threats>Adaptive Ai catalogs the information and adapts to the threat
I never really get the RR hype, it's overkill against anything less than a factory strider and the backpack slot cost limits your options even more.
>>532068885To be fair it is meant to melt away the massive dev chaff and swat gun ships out of the sky. It can back shot hulks or ammo dump from the front but hulks are not the WASP forte. It is like shucking a clam with a spade. Technically possible but not the proper tool for the job.
>>532069191>warning signs are just hotpatches and user manuals are driver packs for organicssasuga
>>532068123>The Automatons bleed red blood.So why do i get covered in black oil if I kill one?
>>532069169>uses artillery modeThere is your problem
>>532069241The GL (which isn't that bad on incelbots just because of the shotgun devs) wipes out devastators just fine, laser cannon is better for gunships imo.
>>532069118>>532069145>>532069191NTA but you fags seem to keep forgetting that Super Earth is unironically the bad guys in this setting. We're the invading murder planet rapists who bring war to everything. The bots/bugs/squids don't want conflict at all. The bots were made slaves, the bugs were peaceful and we harvested them for oil and the squids tried diplomacy then we nuked their civilization. HD2 takes place after we nearly wiped all three out (apart from bugs who we put on farms to milk for oil) in the first war and now they're all back for revenge. Which of course will end with us winning and almost wiping them all out again.
The ENTIRE joke is we're the bad guys how the fuck are you missing this.
>>532069205Its consistent and reliable in all situations while being highly ammo/time efficient. Four people with RRs would rip through D10, four people with wasps will have a shit time.
>>532069438I can no longer tell who's actually missing this info versus who's leaning into the bit by insisting we're the goodguys.
>>532069438>Super Earth is unironically the bad guysopinion discarded
>>532069421Yeah but they are not lock on and require you to aim for weak points or gauge projectile. For every single weapon in this game there are 2-4 side weapons that do the same thing but differently. Listing all of them doesn't make the WASP not damn fucking good at what it was designed to do. Which is reduce 60% of the bot forces to atoms through smoke/fog/darkness/mass fire.

>>532069438>how the fuck are you missing this.You're too retarded to realize that you're only getting half of the picture.
Yes the Super Earth government are fucking murderous shitheads that have gaslit their populace into killing the innocent under the guise of heroism while also dumping their own people into the meatgrinder without a care in the world, BUT because of that same propaganda and information control both the average citizen, SEAF soldier, and Helldiver are all fully under the belief that their actions are heroic, which is only reinforced when they come face to face with something as horrifying as monstrous worldending alien insects, inhuman machines with heads on spikes, and literal biohorror zombiemaking alien overlords.
"Humanity is evil and deserves to be killed" is just as retarded as "Super Earth dindu nuffin", and you're just as illiterate as the people you're trying to mock.
>>532070602>I have the literacy it is you who does not!Uh huh
>>532070615Your lack of any basic understanding of this setting is impressive.
>>532070703cry all you want about not realizing it, but that doesnt make you look like less of a 12 year old taking their first social sciences class

The Squids are genocidal theocrats that are an existential threat.
The Bugs are just animals so killing them to save our selves isn't wrong.

>Speaking at the Nordic Game conference in Sweden, former CEO Johan Pilestedt showed off the original pitch for Helldivers, which describes the game as "a co-op action shooter where players are put in the shoes of 'evil side' grunts of pop culture." From there, the game asks how far you might make it in an 80s-style action movie without plot armor to protect you.

>>532071136>You're the bad guys causing pointless warsSuper Earth and it's territories are wildly overpopulated. We need E-710 is vital for expanding our borders and furthering our colonization deeper into the outer rims. War with the bugs solves two problems at once. Population control and getting us space gas to propel ourselves out further. Also do you really believe the space bugs were cute cuddling caterpillars before we got involved? What purpose did a peaceful docile race have for a fucking bile titan?
Bots are violent mindless murder machines from an equally violent and once human band of race traitors. We have to fight them because they are fighting us. Just because we disagreed civically 100 years ago doesn't give them a right to unleash a mechanical horde of slaughter bots on us today.
Squids were simply too dangerous to let alone. We had to and nearly did exterminate them as we rightfully should. The bugs were at least confined and predictable. They are just animals. The squids were schemers and we had no idea what their full intentions were. When jelly fish in the ocean it could be a harmless floating blob that just wants to chill in the waves. Or it could be a fucking box jellyfish that will ruin your fucking life with the briefest of graze. They had to be eliminated.
In the end all these wars are justified and for the good of Mankind. Fuck the xenos. Super Earth first and always. Morals can be talked about at length after.
>>532072158Yeah exactly Luke Skywalker was wearing pink pajamas the whole time. And Dumbledore had gay sex in Harry Potter (before fantastic beasts came out)
>>532071136So you're telling me the average SEAF soldier and Helldiver is aware of the origins of the Automatons and Illuminate? Even though their government hides the truth and rewrites history so that their citizens are gaslit into believing they're the good guys and that they've never done anything wrong?
What you need to understand is that if the average Helldiver actually managed to learn how poorly the innocent cyborgs of cyberstan came to be, they'd rise up to defend their rights to equality, only to then be killed and silenced by their government, and the others that have been spoonfed false information about how the rebels have always been monsters.
YOU know what really happened, and that's why YOU are able to make these claims, but the people of Super Earth don't know any better because they aren't ALLOWED to know any better. All they're told is that their enemies are evil, were always evil, and to think otherwise is evil. And after Super Earth's actions have managed to mutate and radicalize their old rivals into equally vengeful and genocidal monsters, its no surprise that the average human just automatically assumes that the creatures now hellbent on their genocide ARE as evil as they appear.
Helldivers is somehow too nuanced for you to understand.
>>532072110>>532072110>A man with cybernetic parts has detonated a bomb in the center of District 48 of Super Earth, killing 8 civilians. Dr. Henk Ploeg explains "The Socialistic Cyborgs are perverted, lack any sense of responsibility, and have, ever since their declaration of independence from Super Earth, grown weary and hateful of what they gave up: Freedom, Democracy, Liberty, Justice and Decency." He continues "The Cyborgs are becoming increasingly threatening in their rhetoric. With the latest development, they have put words into action and, in the most significant way, hurt Super Earth." [...] Some Cyborg sympathizers question whether or not the lone individual was in any way affiliated with the Cyborg Nation, to which John W. Killjoy responds "Those hippies that believe there is a single thought of peace in a Cyborg's mind need to be put in jail, or even executed. We are going to war, and that's the end of the discussion."Glad to clear this up. Super Earth faked an attack from Cyborgs to justify attacking them.
>>532072210>Super Earth and it's territories are wildly overpopulatedNo. Have you played the games? 90% of missions are in completely barren fields with-out a city or farmlands in sight. If you have nature reserves you aren't over populated.

>The federation has decided that the Bug threat is becoming too great. Senator John W. Killjoy declared: "The Bugs have been a plague in this galaxy for far too long, they must now be eradicated before they spread to other worlds." [...] This is also proven by scientist Henk Ploeg Ph.D.: "The Bugs rapidly generate vast quantities of oil when they decompose. This is beneficial, but is not the primary reason why the Bugs must be exterminated. They are far too dangerous to be allowed to live.">"We have reason to believe the Illuminates have Weapons of Mass Destruction, capable of destroying entire planets" stated house representative Powley Colle. He continued "Every statement I make today is backed up by reliable sources". Whether or not the Illuminates prove the large threat that Mr. Colle is so certain about is met by little resistance. Some sympathizers deny this fact and instead state that "The Illuminates are an ancient and wise species, they are no threat to us unless we threaten them". These voices were set right immediately afterwards through public executions.If you can't read between the lines you're fucking retarded.
>>532072572>The lore is very clear that Super Earth started all three wars.The Super Earth GOVERNMENT started all three wars, both by lying about their enemies intentions with falseflag operations, as well as hiding the truth from their own people.
The people of Super Earth are innocent and unware of how badly they're being manipulated by a tiny shadow sect of people, and simply believe that their friends and family are being brutally threatened and slaughter by monsters because they lack the meta knowledge the play has, yet you're entirely willing to blame the common man with absolutely NO control over their "managed democracy" for the actions of the powerful few.

>>532073692>Following several weeks of fierce battles since the terror bombing on Super Earth, Helldiver troops have finally disarmed and quarantined the Cyborgs. Rerouters spoke to Cyborg relations expert Dr. Gustaf Smith on why a decision to disarm was made. "We must show the world that the only way to create peace is through democracy." He continued "Therefore we have installed voting booths all around the capitals of Cyberstan and enforced voting turnout by further restricting liberties for entire families if they do not vote.">Senator John W. Killjoy clarifies "We believe that the Cyborgs will change their entire culture thanks to the installation of these voting booths and the threat of being severely punished if they do not vote.">Clearly, one cannot argue with the results since the first vote has seen 85% participation so far. Apparently the Army Tactical Command has decided that the Cyborg culture will be totally democratic in five years time, and during that time Federation troops will be stationed at Cyberstan to keep the peace and run government positions. The Super Earth Construction Company, SECC, will take over the forges and industrial complexes spread throughout Cyberstan. "We believe this will be very profitable for us, and for mankind" said CEO, Mullรฉ Mick.

Let's start by saying that the spread being way off is an acknowledged bug. Okay, your turn.
>>532073618The Super Earth Government is at fault for trying to genocide the Illuminate and laying the foundation for this to happen.
The Illuminate are at fault for pushing their vengeance onto the unenlightened masses 100 years later as if they were the ones that pulled the pulled the trigger.
The 18 year old Super Citizen that's just trying to live his life and has to watch his family be mutated into mindless zombies, is innocent.

If your complaints are in regards to the ammo capacity because "hulks require two shots to kill," please wait until the accuracy fix is in, and then begin complaining when you discover you are bad at coinslotting them!
If your complaints are in regards to not being able to destroy nests, UFOs, and fabs with a weakpoint hit, take comfort in knowing that Alexus is right.
If your complaints are about it not destroying chainlink fences and shipping container doors, please tell arrowhead they need to rework the demo force required for those objects, not give the Epoch more demo force.

>>532076275>The creators are complicitThe creators have numerously posted we are the bad guys.
>the consumers are complicitIm right here, telling you we're the bad guys.
So nope, you lose.
>>532076554The only bad guys here are the inhuman enemies of mankind and the anti-human redditor spewing bile at me.
Can the portable hellbomb be used to circumvent the jammer? Like, if you call it in and equip it out of jammer range, then have someone trigger it just at the jammer before you even shut the jammer down, will it blow it up or not?
>>532076017>One of the core problems with authoritative governments is its a never-ending war to keep people under your thumb because no one wants to be there.And the MAIN POINT of Helldivers is that people have been trapped under the government's thumb for SO LONG that they've completely forgotten what exists outside of their bubble of falsely curated information that has allowed their rulers to completely redefine history in a way that hasn't even been achieved in the real world.
The closest comparison we have would be something similar to North Korea, but even they haven't managed to pull off something as horrifying as Super Earth has. The people of Super Earth have no reason to fight because they've been shown constant "proof" that this is the best things have ever been. They have no reason to question their government because they've been shown "proof" that they have their best interests in mind. They have no reason to doubt that their enemies are pure evil for absolutely no reason, because all they've ever known is that they've been trying to kill everyone they care about for no reason.
The Super Earth government is objectively wicked, both for its actions against the enemies you face, AS WELL as it's own citizens, BOTH of which are victims to the greed and manipulative nature of the people in total control of them.
>Genuinely anon you need help.I haven't the slightest idea what you mean. I'm not defending totalitarianism in any way, shape, or form, I'm simply passionate about the fiction I take the time to consume, and it bothers me when people clearly don't understand what they're talking about.
What goes on in the empty quadrant of the map? Just humans living peacefully?
>>532077005peacefully... as BAD GUYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>532074408>>532074432Zero spread, zero arc, better sound queues like the laser cannon has for overcharging, at least 1 explosive damage so it can at least destroy bugholes and shipping containers, and either an AOE buff or +1 charge to magazines. If it takes two hits to kill most heavies and it gives 3 shots it puts it in an awkward position. If it had a slight increase to its max charge time with a better queue it would be cleaner to use. Right now its too timing oriented with no payoff. It also doesnt make sense to be stationary reload when all youre doing is dropping a battery/gas container in it. It needs ONE of the buffs I suggested AT LEAST. And an animation rework YESTERDAY
>>532040421Needs the plasma launcher and plasma sword.
>>532075376Whoa thats crazy. Hey Jaime, pull up the live helldiver feed of automaton and illuminate atrocities on super citizens.
>>532055087what would arrowhead even do with all the gun variants that exist solely to use a different ammunition
there's shotguns with literally the only difference between them being whether they fire buckshot or slugs or birdshot or dragonbreath
>>532076821Yes thats one of the key uses for it. It shines with bots and squids
>>532077064>>532077005The North Vietnamese had lots of farmers back in the 1960s and 1970s. Just becuase a nation has farmers in it doesn't mean they are good. I'm certain a nation you think is bad has farmers peacefully farming right now.
I think Super Earth is pretty based. a much nicer place to live than the Imperium, only bad thing is they're also really good at oppressing you in ways you don't realize.
Weird how redditors tell us we're committing all these war crimes and evil things that we never see happen in the game. Maybe all helldivers are on psychodrugs and all of our mission objectives aren't what they seem? Remember when we bombed that automaton preschool? Hmmm?
Have you guys autism maxxed out every primary yet or is that not a thing?
>>532077276who cares its practically a utopia if you live in the inner planets (not SE) just be loyal to the government
>>532077418Well for several years there were no city defense missions, did Helldivers not defend cities untill it was added.
>>532077418>swiggers just ripped off HazeI knew it.
>>532077228you could do some dumb shit like limiting some alternative ammunitions to particular weapons, like breaker spray n pray getting flechettes lol remember breaker bugbiter while the incel gets acid or whatever
>>532077439someone has ive seen the screenshot but most people no
>>532077276There are worlds in the imperium that just look like the helldivers 2 intro but instead of praising managed democracy you praise the emperor.
There are cubicle office worker wageslaves that work their completely mundanely soul crushing job to go back to their mediocre apartment and the apocalyptic galactic war and magical hell realm and emperor worship is just background noise.
>>532077545>bugbiternailspitter
>>532074568Xir, please put your pants back on.
>lets put all our strategically vital infrastructure on the front fucking lines
Truth is, the game was rigged from the start.
>>532077598I think I'm going for it. We got a month before the xboxers come and I still got 3 whole warbonds to grind out so may as well become proficient on every primary.

>me sneaking into a bot jammer base, never getting detected
I want missions where we do evil shit. Side objective where we kill traitors (kill fleeing traumatized SEAF troops)
>>532078614Killing dissenters would be kino.
>bald wojak runs up to you and says "ummm you guys know super earth is evil right" moments before you bisect him with your laser cannon
>>532078614Proper bot cities with civilians that are wearing the Super Earth civilian outfit that is red instead of baby blue.
You have to do a bunch of objectives to blow up the civilian evacution ship while the Bots try to stop you from massacuruing their makers/families.
Side objectives where you break into bunkers sheltering civilians who are not high enough class to get about the evac ship.
>>532078921>uhhhm ackshually its us humans who are the bad guy-AAACK!>+25 Requisition
>>532076884>that they've completely forgotten what exists outside of their bubbleTerminate propaganda towers.
Didn't read the rest, you clearly dont even play.
>>532078921this is what all pro-SE arguments basically boil down to
armchair chuds saying they want to simulate curb stomping trannies in a videogame where they get to be le heckin' super cool death squad man
>>532078921>>532079239Just move to China or North Korea its literally that.
>>532079646Do you know what game you're playing lil bro? Traitors don't get cupcakes and apple juice. Go outside of the mission bounds and see what happens.
>>532078614The problem is that people get triggered IRL when you add stuff like that, they couldn't sell HD2 in stores if you were told to murder innocents.
Reminder that if you collect SEAF soldiers to give the "Stop" command before going to extraction. This will force the soldier to remain at their current location. Since helldivers are a bunch of bleach drinking morons that HAVE TO HAVE THEIR EEEEEEEPICCCCCCCC dust off they drop red strats before leaving and result in following SEAF to be immolated.
>>532079646>>532079740>they're talking about anti-super earth wojaks who hate humans... they're actually talking about ME!!!!!self own

>>532080150Sorry still doesn't make any sense, perhaps get Chatgpt to write it since you can't speak English.
Imagine seeing a wojak and feel personally attacked. Couldn't be me.
Wojacks are like smoking, tattoos, having dyed hair or being a tranny, it just means we know you're retarded and can be ignored.
>Wojacks are like smoking, tattoos, having dyed hair or being a tranny, it just means we know you're retarded and can be ignored.
wait why is everyone upset did we fail the rigged major order or something?
>>532079845traitors are not innocents
>>532080482You got really upset at the thought that you would be killed for being a contrarian retard in a fictional society. Do you need therapy?

>>532081106giga retard post
>>532081106Shes on strike to protest the use of AI in video games and the devs quite wholesomely removed her from the game as well. They added a line about how based Super Earth is by making all Art owned by the government too.
>>5320725213/4 LAST ONE BUG BLITZ BABY WE NEED A HARD NIGGA
>>532081363I wanna say better melee weapons or like reds or some shit.
But I really wanna see more unique stuff that adds more depth to the game.
>>532067225>>532067856It was in the MO blurbs when the bots were invaded after being pushes off the map. It's good to know there are people still just buying Helldivers 2 now!
>>532081230>>532081453The strike is over.
>They added a line about how based Super Earth is by making all Art owned by the government tooYou are retarded.
>>532081453>Shes on strike to protest the use of AI in video gamesso a retard then, I hope we get a robot (non-automaton) NPC to replace her
>>532081363A difficulty setting that lets enemies actually use their weapons to attack me.
I saved a seaf I checked up on him and he stared at me for 5 seconds and screamed "HOLY SHIT, ITS A BOT!" and shot me in the fucking face. ASSHOLE

>>532081720What a patriot.
>>532081363Fucking D11. And I want it to be one hit kill for all enemies. I also want it to give no unique rewards at all, so shitters don't join it because they want more credits/xp/a unique cape or whatever fucking tripe devs love to throw in which fucks up the whole point of higher difficulties which is the challenge itself.

I checked a phone from a deceased SEAF soldier and it was chockfull of indecent anthropomorphic female bot and bug pictures
I wish the scream sound wasn't silent in game for me
>>532082318>anthropomorphicCringe
>>532082318The enemy cannot win it you envision them as sex objects and fuck them. There is no defense against that
>>532079646>simulate curb stomping trannies in a videogameNo one says that because no one cares enough to say it
Story told from the PoV of a former SEAF volunteer. A Terminid invasion took his planet by complete suprise, to the point where even getting high priority evacs was barely happening. He joined to help get the mass evacuation ships up and running, not only because it's the right thing to do generally, but because his children were to be put on those ships.
Just as it SEAF is starting to get things under control. The illuminate invades. He doesn't know if his children made it off world, and as Super Earth control over the planet deteriorates, his squad stops receiving orders, and he deserts.
When the illuminate starts an extensive bombardment campaign against the terminids, he paints over the Super Earth symbol and the national colors on his armor. If he dies here, he would die happy knowing that Democracy really does Protect and that his kids made it off world to his Helldiver wife. His "heresy" goes unpunished, and he loses faith.
This is where we pick up with him, 2 months have passed since he lost all hope of his children being alive and of rescue. He is a husk of a man, going through the recursive motions needed to keep himself alive, out of habit more than desire.
The illuminate have already harvested most of what was useful on this planet and are pulling out.
By coincidence, he runs into a bunch of Voteless moving aggressively towards one building. He puts his life on the line to save this stranger. An illuminate dropship arrives, and he gets critically injured fighting the overseers. Then he sees he wasn't saving a human, and instead, it was a Terminid Hive Guard. He slumps over and accepts his fate, but she decides to return his kindness and risks her life fighting the overseers to save him.
They escape, and being so lonely and broken for so long, they begin to bond despite their mutual hate. Eventually, they fall in love, and after the illuminate leave, they build a little house in the woods together.
Thoughts, would you be interested in reading that?
I ain't reading that shit
>>532082876Make it a brood commander that's lost her brood and I'm sold

>>532082551colbert jumpscare
>>532083301I always assumed brood commander was just a name, not that she actually made those warriors. Who wants a wife that forces her children into battle anyway.
When is the incendiary mortar being added?

>>532084020What about the gas mortar? How about the arc cluster shot mortar?
>>532083983>It's over I drew you as the Wojak and me as the Chad
Would (you) use this support stratagem?
>>532083873I just thought that a bug that specifically fights with a squad would be more devastated at being alone and maybe more willing to bond with someone because she doesn't want to be alone anymore

its done... fuck using this thing on bots i shouldve been on bugs the whole time i was leveling it.

>SWEDEN MAKE A CROSSOVER OF MY FAVORITE BASEDGAME
>>532085668HD2 already had a crossover, fag
Might as well do kino crossovers
>>532085668Heavy armor with warp pack is fucking sick.
One day.
One day we will have food melee weapons .
>>532084269I mean, Hive Guards spawn in groups, and it's in their name to guard the place where they live. Anyway, in a world where terminids pass the harkness test, it's hard to imagine a truely antisocial sapient species coming to exist naturally.
The intent is to have the boy more bent out of shape by the ordeal, only to find comfort in the stability of her armor plates, correcting his life up ended.
warping already exists. melee weapons already exist. where is my warping melee mech with shotgun offhand?
Every single time I try to play this game now it either drops to 3 fps during the drop sequence or mid game and then crashes. Didn't have any issues before the update.
Would this save the game?

>PEACEMAKER GOT EXTRA MAGAZINE>PEACEMAKER META SOON?this is what all patch discussion since december looks like now
needs to be a mech warbond with as many stratagems in it as this one. flame mortar mech to steal from bots, bile spewer mech to steal from bugs, and warp melee mech to steal from illuminate
>>532085990>discord troons being right about anything >nerftrannies getting anything but more L'sWhat the hell do (You) think? Only a coomer themed warbond can save this game now.
>>532085990This guy is retarded and has shitter takes
>>532085887Its up to you and I'd probably give it a read anyways
>>532079845call of duty got away with it
>>532085990All of those weapons are fine, thermite isnt even top tier anymore, it's only good because the AT reds fucking suck.
>>532085990Who is this fucking nigger and why should literally anyone care
>>532078614Wholesale reprisal genocide (bytecide?) of Cyberstan. All the bots, even the unarmed ones. Even the freshly built ones.
Why is AH so allergic to explain anything in game? Why do I need to go to wiki to find about enemies. Why isn't galactic war explained anywhere. How liberating and defending work.
Why do they expect us to care and do smart choices. When game is structured as pick planet and just play.
Why did they drop new warbond during bot megacity MO. When there is no SC to be found on those maps.
>>532085975I don't have lot of issues other people have. So it's probably ram or cpu issue. But I have shuttering during drop. Which is strange. I have no idea what could be issue.
>>532086341Mech technician perk that grants 100% more mech limb hp OR swap this to an armor and make the perk grant 1 more mech per mission with decreased cooldown between. And then during this warbond, make the diapers shield larger so that it encompasses the entirety of the mech when you get in it. Add a secondary welding torch that has abysmal damage and is basically a melee but can fix limb hp or just make it a stratagem and have it be a support weapon
>>532086617would you kill baby robot hitler fresh off the production line?
>>532086669Everyone's been having that shuttering issue. It's just a minor annoyance and AH being AH.
>>532086726I'd kill him even before he finished activating.
>>532086669Just play the game lmao
>>532086617Including the fleshy ones that run and scream, and sound and look exactly like humans
>New megacity
>Can actually fucking see
Why was that one city so dark for no damn reason?
>>532086341Mech pilot armour. Only light. But grants mech limb hp and movement speed.
Mech Corp booster that grant 1 extra mech/car.
>>532086824Everything. Cyberstan will burn until it's surface is but glass, for their destruction is the will of Democracy, and we - we are it's instrument!
>>532086669Ignorant players are easier to exploit and easier to appease. If players knew too much about the game mechanics, they may start to question the devs' competence, or 'right to rule' if you will. Don't draw any parallels to other things, I am talking strictly within the confines of a children's videogame.
Armors should be cosmetic (within a type) with swappable perks. Damage reduction should not be built-in but a stackable perk. Heavier armors should get more perks (up to 3). Light gets 1, Medium gets 2, Heavy gets 3.
So you could have a heavy armor that is full of useful utility perks or stack 3 damage reductions for maximum survivability.
>>532086764Just strange what caused it. After last big patch. Loading for me was really fast and I hit ground before I could steer.
Now loading time is loooooong and shutter. Are they messing with files becouse game has bloated so mucu
>>532086601If I had to guess, one of the retards who has taken up residence in The Armory channel on the official discord. That place tends to have the most outspoken retards when it comes to being outright wrong about how things work in game, acting like children when datamining proves them wrong, and having dogshit takes on balance.
Lmao I searched him on the discord right after typing that and sure enough
>>532087182Heavy would just be busted as fuck especially considering warp pack exists now. Stupid idea, finally make heavy viable for regular play and you want it to just dwarf medium and light for no reason?
>>532086946Mech pilot armor should when your mech/vehicle explodes send you flying upwards safely and then let you parachute back down so you can land somewhere else.
Or just like, 50% cooldown on vehicles that will work too.
>>532087321All we need is heavy scout.
>>532087395That would be a booster not an armor perk anonโฆ.
>>532087431Would actually work I regularly get ahead of medium and light teammates with warp pack now as a heavy.
>>532087316>acting like children when datamining proves them wrong, and having dogshit takes on balance.Care to provide some examples?
Why are we still focusing on gaylivaire or whatever, it's a red herring, their true objective is claorell where the forge resides.
>>532087590>incel corps>meteorsnah you can keep that gay planet
>>532086774At least wait for it to finish so you can see the fear in its soulless eyes as it process what's about to happen
>>532087545just scroll up and you'll find some nerftroon crying about balance
>>532087316Most of their takes are pretty on par, but like 500 hours of gameplay takes. Like "pen 2 is actually best on bots" kinda shit.
Thermite, pyro, gas, arc are all very strong grenades. Don't think they compete with the above but which one is the best among the conventional explosive types?
>>532087667>pen 2 is actually best on botsit is thoughbeit
>>532087590Actually, sweaty, the bots already plundered the planets they captured so it doesnt matter if you re-take them, you've already failed :)))
>>532087508Boosters are already solved you can't add a mech one to it
>>532087695The only good nades are thermite.
>>532087695Personally I've taken a liking to Dynamite, purely because it has a large explosion radius that makes it good for blowing up groups of enemies. Switching to the 60 second timer and littering extract with them at around the 20-10 second mark is also a fun way to fuck with teammates who insist on sticking around and killing enemies instead of just leaving.
>>532087907My seekers randomly get like 60 kills plus I front kill bile titans if I spam them.
>The only good nades are therm-ACKKKK.
>>532078614Riot control would be so fucked up but probably a lot of fun
>>532087725Yeah I know
Like they know what they're talking about but they're closed minded n meta focussed.
>>532087998>he forgot the basedjack.jpegooooh, better luck next time, champ!
Reminder the RR can one-shot hulks and tanks by hitting them anywhere, even the extreme end of one of its gun barrels or the outside edge of its side skirt. But the RR isn't OP or anything, no sir.
>>532087998Thermites do everything I need them to do. Why would i ever swap off them?
>>532084579I just use it infront of the pelican and wait for someone to kick me in
>>5320881576 shots every 2 minutes.
Meanwhile I can kill like... 10 hulks with the senator. And don't even get me started on the HMG.
But people that bitch about recoiless don't even use it so it's not worth caring lol

So tired of being a speedrunfag. Why does the game dictate exterm or blitz be in campaigns?

If you get mad at people using something you think is a crutch, play in a private lobby.

>>532088361Ado owes me sex
>>532088389It really should just be that you get to decide what the lobby runs as leader. If they want to make it so certain mission types are still played, make it so that theres a limited amount of operations per planet that restock every hour when percentage rollback comes in, so eventually you would need to complete the less played ones. If they want to make scrolling around the planet in search of missions still significant, make it so you can drop anywhere but depending on where you put it you get a certain mission type. Dropping in mountains gives you rocky terrain, dropping in the ocean gives island type missions (or just restrict this entirely), dropping near beaches gives cliff/water edge type missions, and so on. That would be extremely immersive, grant further player agency and encourage people to host lobbies (already sucks as is to do so).
Side note, if players not wanting to do the leftover missions on a planet makes progress stall out, grant increased XP or medals for completing ops with thesr leftover missions (say after only 5 mission types are left)
>>532088157RR stands for Realistic Realism
>>532088609I just kick everyone using light armour
>>532089047Play in a private lobby
>take AP4 support
>Take ap2 primary or something that complements it
>Ultimatum + thermite
Honestly how can you justify anything else. I just kill shit ID cc with my support, and theres no reliable strategem for heavies to justify swapping off those two.
Only time I wouldn't take ultimatum or thermites is if I have dedicated AT blues.
>>532089151I just wish rocket pods worked properly. I would love to run with strafe and rocket pods as my AT.
>>532087992Seekers have that bug where 1 bug can count as +5 kills
>>532089151Weapon leveling you cuck. Thats how you fucking justify it
>>532078614They already have a game for people like you. It's called Hatred, and people cancel mobbed it so hard it nearly got taken off of Steam.
>>532089578I only level primaries I plan on using
>>532089578Who gives a shit
I'll run my eruptor and cookout interchangeably
>>532089795what is your general, overall opinion on the state of every primary that isn't the eruptor or cookout?
>>532089958I don't know, I've only used Eruptor and cookout.
I like using G-10 Incendiary since they last 20s now
Great on bugs and squids
>>532089958Eruptor and Crossbow are the most broken pieces of shit to ever grace this game by far. Cookout is dogshit but I respect people who can put up with dealing no damage and sucking that hard.
>gaylever is now suddenly liberating at 5% every 20 minutes after sitting at 0% for nearly 2 days

>>532090040Cookout is actually useless now. The stats effect ""buff"" from Alexus has made pouncers completely immune to fire/gas DOT. The blitzer can't even fucking stun a basic bot trooper now. They were already iffy but holyshit arc/fire/gas is pretty much useless now
>>532090269do you NEED to set pouncers on fire when they die to getting sneezed on, or stun raiders when the blitzer in all likelihood just fucking kills them with the first zap, and on the rare occasional it doesn't staggers them so hard they can't act until the follow up shot?
>>532090516Yes I expect my weapons to work correctly you fucking troglodyte
>>532090269>The stats effect ""buff"" from Alexus has made pouncers completely immune to fire/gas DOT.not true
>>532090269Cookout has been shit since day 1 but we love our little retarded shotgun bros who think they're doing something
>>532090745nta but ive seen footage of pouncers litterally ignoring the sterilizer gas
>>532090825u meming?
thing was like shooting a napalm strike at chaff
>>532088860Operations need to be more than just three different missions to actually feel like anything more than a chore to complete. Scaling modifiers? Difficulty increasing like a DRG Deep Dive? I dunno.
>>532090902They can't ignore the Stalwart
>>532091103If they got rid of the guaranteed blitz/eradicate it would go a long way towards making me actually want to do all three missions.
>>532091175BRRRRT
I wanna like the stalwart, but it feels like a primary with extra ammo
>>532091305That's 100% the purpose of the stalwart. If you have a utility in the place of your primary or secondary, the Stalwart fills in. It helps that it's also pretty good!
>>532091365hmm maybe maybe.
Maaaaaaybe you speak the truth in your dark juju.
But then I gotta wonder why I wouldn't just put that utility on my secondary with some shooty shit.
>>532091116I tested fire and gas. Both of them work.
Fuck bros heavy armor being actually usable this update changes everything for me. Goodbye medium! Goodbye light!
>>532067218there's also evidence of bots pulling the brains out of corpses before throwing the corpses into bio refineries, potentially as a new bot for the cause.
>>532091797with telepack? Yeah it basically fixed heavy armor over night.
>>532091463>spoilerUnfortunately there's not much in any slot that fills the role of both utility and versatility. Niche and all-rounder are two opposite ends on a scale, there's not much that can do both.
>>532092078Works on my machine.
>>532091979Yuuuup heavy also just generally being the best cosmetically? Icing on the cale
>>532092078did you record this on a floppy disk or something?
>>532092078Didn't one fag report last thread that fire/gas only works for the host?
>>532092340Why are you calling xer a fag doe
>>532091797I tried heavy armour for the first time today and its actually amazing what it lets you survive. Stupid bullshit ragdolls that wouldve normally killed me let me survive.

WHY ARE WE SO FAST
I've always been underwhelmed by the railgun, do you have to charge it to 99.99% to damage shit?
Why would you ever use light outside of SAAAAAAAAARRRRing out for SC?
>>532092736Kill yourself avatartroon subhuman bottomfeeding niggerscum. I will change my Warrantโs targetting to include your diver you TRIPLE NIGGER
>>532092498As soon as i unlocked my first heavy armor set I never went back. I love surviving getting hit in the face by rockets so much.
>>532092971Well I did because dying due to running out of stamina in 5 seconds flat sucks. Thanks warp pack for removing this retarded issue!! Shouldve been an ergo hit and not a stamina hit anyways
>>532092915you can use safe for just about anything but if you want to put big holes in superheavies you need to edge it
I've always been a tacticool bullets fag but I can't help but notice that energy based primaries are the most fun in the game
>>532091797Welcome battle brother
>>532092498A lot of people say heavy armor sucks and it is pretty annoying to have such shit mobility but every time I use medium/light on bots I can really feel the difference in survivability
It's not really necessary but man is it nice to have, fortified heavy practically makes you invincible while prone
>>532092736It's because of you. You inspire us to fight. :)

>>532093631>>532092736Avatarnigger AND a samenigger AND an AI-nigger. I was right about you being a triple nigger
>>532093528I still get to do most of the objectives by myself on heavy armor, it's just a matter of playstyle and preference.
With the recent reworked chest damage, it's a minor buff towards heavy armor usage since you live longer on heavy armor if you're bleeding unlike Light where you just fucking die in 7 seconds from full health

>>532077102>at least 1 explosive damage so it can at least destroy bugholes and shipping containers"explosive damage" isn't what lets an attack do this. It's the "demolition force" stat.
Once they fix the accuracy issues the Epoch will end up being my favorite gun.
>>532095760It has a limited life duration, yes. After it's been active for a certain amount of time it automatically withdraws back into the hellpod.
>>5320883612/4 again, d10 whatevs
Holy fuck the Warrant is ass. The projectile is so fucking slow, the magazine size is pathetic, and trying to kill more than one thing at a time with the dogshit targeting system is a nightmare. I could have bought TWO chud helmets for what I wasted on this piece of shit.
>>532095910Window is even smaller than the railguns for maximum effectiveness, the sound queue is misleading its most effective when pins are flush with the body. That it requires a stationary reload and long charge just make me prefer the Quasar, and even over that the EAT. Its good but the AOE is also misleading which is the one place it was supposed to have an edge over the competition, AND it has no demo force? Just sounds like a raw deal, and it is one. Nothing wrong with that its still a fine AT option but that doesnt mean its the most effective of them all.
Does the jackboot helmet with the savior of the free armor look as good as Iโm imagining or do the colors not actually match well? I donโt have the armor so canโt see for myself.
>>532088361ggz, my money was stolen from me
>>532096073Are you using it on bots? If so your issue is you need to stop using it on devs. Are you using it on bugs? If so your issue is one of skill. How do you fuck up using the guided weapon? Genuinely its so good on bugs its mind blowing how you have issues with it. I dont get the Warrant hate it works great where I need it to. You can also just turn the guided off if you want to.
>>532095978That's kind of stupid.
>>532096153dw, epoch will have its spray values fixed and once you nail the charge up timing it can hold its own.
>>532087907Sparkler grenades have surpassed thermites.
>>532095946only good post
>>532096616Theyre shit. They kill nothing
>>532096768>throw firework at strider dog's foot>it fucking dies
>>532096813If I threw one under a tank, would it die?
>>532096896tanks are so short lived and inconsequential I genuinely cannot say
will throw one at one and see what happens in the future
>>532096303Just give it time and it'll be buffed.
>>532096896It would be extremly painful
>>532096768Try hitting enemies with the sparks.
>>532096896You might need two, but yes. They kill tanks. Factory striders quickly go down to 1 sparkler + 1 quasar shot to a foot.
>>532097013pyrotechs have been sleeper OP since they released.
they kill harvesters, tanks, FS, chargers, impalers and also do really good crowd clear.
not to mention that you can carry more of them than other nades.
>>532090269>Cookout is actually useless now. The stats effect ""buff"" from Alexus has made pouncers completely immune to fire/gas DOT.Well now that's just plain untrue.
Also do you have any idea how hard it is to hit a pouncer with the cookout and NOT just kill it outright with the pellets? Really fucking hard.
>>532097305They're great. They just require a bit more effort to use than "unga-bunga, stick the target with the sticky thermite".
>>532090269>The blitzer can't even fucking stun a basic bot trooper now.It's even fucking harder to hit a raider with the blitzer and not kill it than it is to hit a pouncer with the cookout and not kill it. Seriously out of the hundred plus raiders I killed trying to get this footage it was like less than a dozen. And on the extremely rare chance they didn't get killed outright they still would get stunned. I even included footage of a stun grenade stun so you can see the animations are the same.
>>532097495>enemy with no hp that dies to a wet fart>i need to use a damage over time effect to kill them in 6 seconds instead of shooting the motherfuckersas an anon once said, gas users are BRAINDEAD.
>>532095910>once they fix the epoch>not ifYeaaah, about that. Remember how long it took for them to un-fuck Thermite grenades, or the Purifier? Better stock up on Copium.
>>532096073>>532096291Why would you use the Warrant when the Verdict exists?
>>532097840Epoch hotfix today
>>532097963Thats the spirit, ol'd boy!
>>532097840>Remember how long it took for them to un-fuck Thermite grenadeshahah funny joke anon
Thermites are still broken. The DoT is still inconsistent and doesn't apply itself. Look, if you blow off both arms of a hulk with 1 commando shot each it leaves the main HP on 40 HP, which is enough that a single tap from the reprimand to the otherwise full health heatsink can kill it, and yet when I stick a thermite on it it's only the explosion that kills the hulk. Buffing the explosion to a ludicrous amount was just a shitty band-aid solution and turned the thermite from a DoT grenade into 10 second sticky HE grenade
>>532096073I use it on foggy disty dark maps to find enemies.
Why would you use any secondary besides the Talon?
>>532097495>>532097727>retard tries to debunk a glitch that requires you to not be the host/soloWhat
>>532092340 is correct. The video shows it not working in a full squad.
>>532098118I hate how the Talon looks
>>532098202The Banana is peak
>>532092340Well, they did state that the fix was turning off calculations for the client. So, it tracks.
>>532096141The difficulty of the window doesn't matter when the audio queue is reliable enough to develop muscle memory off of that alone.
But I'm fully aware my perspective is different given the kind of headphones I use
Anyways
>stationary reloadit's tiered so animation skip shenanigans apply still
I like the eats too. I've used them all the way until now. The Quasar has obvious disadvantages;
>More hits to kill fabricators>no demo force>more hits to kill charger>less rangeAnd very obvious advantages
>easier to land on flying units>capable of killing an entire flying patrol on it's own>useable on groups of smaller enemies to a smaller extentAnd outside of the timing issues some people have it's also infinitely more lenient.
If it didn't have it's versatility and was strictly a middling aoe weapon or a middling AT weapon then I wouldn't like it as much as I do. But it does both to a "good enough" degree while also having substantially less awkward scenarios that a double loadout of EAT+ Commando can run into.
>Get in extract
>Some retard fucking around
>Warp out
>Kill him
>Get back in
Get in the fucking ship, retard.
>>532098118I just dont like how the third-person crosshairs have a gay fucking triangle clogging up the reticle like its the sickle.
I don't like the muzzle flashbanging me every time I pull the trigger in FPV.
I don't like how the tinted reflex sight makes everything harder to see at night.
And I dont like how it manages to whiff when I'm aiming at a bot mine ten feet in front of me.
>>532098453you would have to try really hard to make a worse support weapon than the quasar
>>532095910Me too. It does what the Railgun can't which is be reliable and tackle any target.
