>>532419213>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.

Arrowhead should hire me to fix the game. First thing I'll do is fire Alexus. Second thing I'll do is kill Alexus while he's still in the office as a lesson to the rest of the staff.

As much as I love the railgun, I just can't make it work against Squids...
>>532506664Of course. They're designed to counter strong single shot weapons.

This was a forced loss from the start. That side objective was never possible and they knew that
>>532506664Why are you trying to use the bot counter weapon against the squids? Bro? Your GL? Your MMG?
>>532506436dis gon be good
>>532506750>Achird III is slowly gaining more and more liberation progress>squid MO happened, dont care, go fight bugs>bot MO happened, dont care, go fight bugs>rose from 12% to around 30% nowAnd thats without the DSS.
It is possible to take over a planet without it being the MO target. It's just slow.
Liberty bless those souls, they are enjoying themselves, with no care in the world, but to shoot the bug and have fun.
Flamer sentry is second lowest cooldown of all sentries now btw. 77 seconds for gatling, 86 for flamer.

When are we getting that extremely democratic feline allied race?
>>532507698Why the fuck would I ever use the flamer sentry when I got the MG Sentry being actually reliable at killing shit no matter the range, AND having a lower CD.
Even the Gatling Sentry is better at its job, despite its chance to blast my brains out is way higher (if I placed it in a shit position / the game decides to spawn a patrol between me and the sentry), but thats a risk I'm willing to take.

>>5325064363/4 Test your luck!
>>532508072>Using crutchFaggot.
After leveling the punmeler and defender to level 25 I've come to the conclusion that they are not very good
>>532508552>all light and heavy armoursMedium are the best armours in the game though.
>>532508660It's amazing how many people think the starting armor is awful just because its the starting armor
Anyone who says anything about a "crutch" is literally just Alexus trolling.
Ignore him and move on.
>>532508312I can see your point, but I do not wish to rely on sentries being my main-contributing armor-counter.
MG / Gatling do a good job for mobbing up chaff, with the rocket sentry being the best of two worlds, while the AC just smacks a bitch.

We're supposed to be the "elite" force (aka sending 20 retards that were just good enough to pass the litmus test of unlocking their BraschPhone in under 2 seconds)
>>532509814I can hear your clanking from here, you rusty metal scum.
Shotgun devs are bullshit and not fun. I don't care if you call me bad. They should not have the ability to one shot you from 100 to 0 while wearing heavy fire armor at range.
How do we even kill enough factory striders when they only spawn 2-3 per mission or just 5 max on heavy seeds spawns.
>>532510529You dont. You think this MO was ever possible??
>>532510529Small brain: Spam missions with convoys.
Big brain: Realize this is a bad MO and ignore it.
AH needs to hire an actual mathemathician to balance their game. Since all their balancing seems to be based on "feelings" and "believability" rather than objective facts.
>>532510046Anon, the Nazis were literally left wing by definition.
Literally all of their domestic policies were extremely leftist.
The only reason you think otherwise is because you fell for propaganda by socialists trying to distance themselves from the inevitable end-state of their policies.
>did.. did that enemy just kill me?
>i lost one respawn in a game with 20? AIEEEE NO NO NO NO IM NOT SUPPOSED TO DIE ON THE HIGHEST DIFFICULTY NERF NERF
>>532510685Wait, there's an MO?
I'm supposed to follow the instructions of some retard on how I should play the game?
>>532510529Also, hire someone with basic math skills to decide on MO numbers.
>>532507538>It is possible to take over a planet without it being the MO target. It's just slow.Meanwhile, enemy factions can take 4 different planets in one day
>>532510046Modern fascists are weird in that they desperatly try to distance themselves from the nazis while completly embracing everything they said at the same time
>>532510879>not just wanting your guy to live to retirement
>>532510851I have a bridge to sell you.
>>532510851>I got all of my information from a podcast that was trying to sell me supplementsThe nazis weren't even the first fascists dipshit. It's only been a little over 100 years, did you really think this was up for debate?
>>532510851>Literally all of their domestic policies were extremely leftist.this is your brain on amerilard propaganda
>>532510851I like how your entire argument revolves around other people being as afraid of the word 'leftist' as you are

>>532509814Helldivers 1's government was evil. Helldivers 2's government is mildly corrupt and somewhat incompetent, but not evil. It's why Helldivers in Helldivers 2 spend more time saving people than in helldivers 1.
People forget that 100 years have passed.

>>532511551>>532511384>>532511378>>532511260>>532511170Their domestic policies were all literat text-book collectivist socialism. Literally the only difference between them and modern socialists was the fact that they valued their original culture and wanted to perfect their people for the good of their people.
Furthermore: they directly based their racial ideas and eugenics processes off what America was doing at the time, and is literally still doing through shit like Planned Parenthood, ect.
>>532511894kill yourself nazbol retard
>>532511785Reminder that they removed some of the desynch safeguards to "fix" status effects.
>>532511938Bruv, I dislike the Nazis AND Amerilards.
Just because I state the truth doesn't mean I like them.
How about we talk more about in universe ideologies like that of a surveilance state being based
>>532510879It's a game and players don't like deaths with little feedback or control. Deaths that are summed up as "the ai rolled a random, unlucky spread and insta gibbed you" are dissatisfying. You did not do anything necessarily wrong, but the enemy got 'lucky'. This is why leviathans, elevated overseers, and devastators are hated.
>>532511894>Their domestic policies were all literat text-book collectivist socialismYeah like privatizing everything. That's hardcore socialism
I LOVE TO SOLO AND I'M PROUD
>>532512114Bro, literally every "private" company in Nazi Germany was party affiliated and controlled.
Exactly like modern China.
>>532511565Weโre only saving the upper class citizens or the military personnels though, any lower class gets abandoned to death.
Hell the Bunkers in megacity only allow certain class of citizens.
>>532510850>Balance based on numbers>Everything is just based on DPS instead of use case and fun factor>People filter out what has the best DPS in terms of gameplay>Can't tweak because number god said big balance>Or worse everything feels exactly the sameNyo.
Id rather they just buff primaries more so we can just bring strategems for their utility over their dps
>>532512629No. I'm a historian.
I care about facts, not your sad little political fee fees.
>>532512689I'd rather they hire someone who actually plays the game on D10 but can still have fun on D6 with friends to balance shit.

>>532515029It continually boggles my mind that almost no developer of co-op horde shooters grasps the importance of damage breakpoints. Fatshark had the exact same problem and still doesn't seem to realize it.
>>532514558Liberator vs Fleshmob. You can see them adjust the liberator's durable damage over the patches until it was dealing pre-buff damage against it. They are probably trying to have the newer post-buff TTK match the old pre-buff TTK by adjusting durable and armor on enemies so the changes are less player facing. This leads people to call for "primary" buffs when the guns themselves don't need a buff.

>>532515489It always had aoe, just not as big as something like the stun grenade.
The stagger is pretty strong though.
>>532515520Because the Eruptor hits much harder with the shrapnel, clears groups better with the shrapnel, and doesn't lose damage over distance.
>>532515520>higher pen>more damage>actually fast projectile>bigger aoe>actually has punch to it

basically treat it as a moody, limited autocannon
>>532538303>>532538572the little chin guns have 100% explosion resistance so the epoch eats a fat 50% damage nerf on them and it seems like it's eating shit against the 100% durable too because it struggles to kill them despite the fact that the projectile has 800 damage and the guns have 300 hp
combine the fact that you have to run in terror from the guns with the fact that he's got 40% explosion resist everywhere else on him, and lol

>>532539737>>532540167the deciding factor here is barrel wall thickness and diameter
shotguns use much thinner barrels and use much lower pressure shots

>>532557731i was trying the shield out to see if it was fun, its whatev, fire damage got past the shield anyway so it was kinda useless desu
With all this talk of weapon damage I looked up the weapons I usually use and compared them.
>Adjudicator
95 damage
>DCS
200 damage
>Slugger
280 damage
>Punisher
405 damage
What the fuck are these values? Hunters should die in one shot anywhere on their body from the DCS, slugger, or punshier but they don't. Is drag factor really that much of a problem? Drag factor is given in percentage so I have no idea what it means. Where can I find the amount of damage lost per distance for each gun to find out what is optimal for the ranges I tend to engage in? (I'm assuming that's what drag factor means)

>>532554218At this point I'm convinced the squid stuff has become a perpetuated meme
I don't mind them at all I just realized a while back that it was easier to ignore fleshmobs entirely via a gas backpack and quickly do objectives and leave
They're a faction you can easily speedrun things on so it's just not fun innately to do it
Still the best to use the car on due to running over people being more satisfying than bugs or bots (and less of a threat) but I've had zero reason to drop into them versus dropping into bots for weeks now
And no, I don't care about the MO's because I want to take these fucking planets first

>>532558915>Hunters should die in one shot anywhere on their body from the DCS, slugger, or punshier but they don't.you hit a leg or wing which don't transfer enough damage to the main HP to kill them, also that 405 damage from the punisher is the total damage of every single pellet, which will rarely all hit the same zone unless it's very large

Leviathans are trash, fleshmobs arent' that bad now that we have warp pack for heavy armor, War strider is honestly kinda a nothing burger just an AT check. It's not that bad tho and I'd say every faction feels pretty okay save for fire bots.

voteless/fleshmobs should be an illuminate subfaction
their main chaff units should be tripods, like in HD1. this makes their shields a much more important mechanic and also prevents them from being bulletsponges.
>>532572384voteless and fleshmobs are the devs masturbating. They are not going anywhere.
>you need to do illuminate missions NOW!!!
Sorry I'm on summer vacation :)
>>532558915theres a spreadsheet, Adj loses like 6-10% at 50m+ DCS only loses 8% of its damage at 100m, the slugger loses like 20-35% of its damage after 25-50m ranges Punisher loses slightly less but you already shouldnt be shooting a punisher beyond 25m usually.
>>532572384they already referred to them as the great host in the past so id imagine they may be one of a few.
>summer tourist cucks mistakenly think there's another thing coming
>OGs agree it's never been more over than now
>>532574046I'm pretty sure "the great host" just referred to the invasion fleet that glassed all those planets and attacked Super Earth. We beat them.
>>532556918hey what if8gtms
>>532572895I think I need to start pinging enemies I'm shooting at so I can see the ranges and try from there.
Just saw the fucking amendment does 300 damage per shot god damn.
Heavy armor should have aimpunch immunity by default.
The fact that there is no heavy Unflinching set almost makes me think they may have intended this at one point.
>>532574809Amendment has 200 damage like the DCS with the same damage profile and everything but trades armor pen for a better handling weapon. Unless you meant the Deadeye?
New liberation system sucks ass. The HP pool of the planet is bloated, making planet progress basically impossible unless all the cities are locked. But, each city usually gives enough liberation to unlock the next one. So, all liberation efforts have basically become "play endless city maps forever" on every single fucking faction.
What a fucking crock of shit.
>>532513237The US is outdoing Super Earth with Palantir and AI surveillance tools that also work for the highest bidder.
>>532575360>malding over the mechanics of a blatantly rigged featureIf you get invested in it you lose
>>532575360it's baffling they didn't make city missions provide normal librate plus a bonus when liberated or just make a region capture mechanic identical to such except that there are non-urban and semi-urban regions with the respective map variants
baffling, but not surprising, swiggers
>>532570161I'm busy pounding Robutt.
>>532575225Yeah the deadeye whoops. I've been using the default liberator on bots for a bit and it's surprisingly nice so maybe the amendment would be okay.
>>532575360As compared to the previous iteration of this game being "play open field maps forever"?
>>532576262the best biomes are town biomes, i thought mega city bots would be kino but its fucking boring, but bots in towns some of the most kino this game has to offer
>>532575360Dont forget that defence rate doesn't get converted into liberation rates anymore (WHY???)

For bots, it may spiral out of control with you and your team fighting at the generators if a trooper manages to sneak in and call in a drop, and it is difficult to push them back if it happens

>>532593586its fun and satisfying, but it doesn't keep up in DPS with other support weapons. Even if you're perfect with it.

Lobby decides 2/4
>Squidsissies steal the DSS so the crew can watch them lose to squids.
Why cant squiddivers learn to take an L?
>>532595020Russian lost to vodka. 2/4 agane.
>>532592623I think it got easier because of all the things mentioned in the post, which can be backed up by just looking at the patch notes.
So on top of just straight up ignoring actual game changes for the sake of a smug redditor shitpost, you're also just blatantly saying that in the game's previous state it was also perfectly adaptable. Jesus, pick a lane.
>impotent seething from bugcuck who purports his railroaded MO successes to be why he is superior
>not just ignoring joels shitty narrative and playing the faction i like vnbothered
>still get the most ass kissing from joel for doing so
Neither botcucks nor bugsissies can make me angry when I have already won.
>>5325950202/4 PLAY VIDEO GAME NAOW!!!!
>>532596372No Im going to bed
>>532596245>used to take a full recoiless rifle shot or 15 fully charged railgun shots on the engines to kill one>they had extremely good tracking and you couldn't hide from them, losing aggro was basically impossible>forced you to bring something to deal with them efficiently or else you had to suffer the whole missionI miss the old patches.
If they ever add difficulty 11 they should call it "Legacy Helldive" and it should just be the game before reddit shat itself into tears.
>>532596245>posts a video of gunships ignoring him>meanwhile enemies will instantly fry my face when I'm playingjust sounds like swede jank.
Game was a lot easier back in the day. Except bugs. Bugs were a lot harder than bots for a good while.

>>532597093>15 fully charged rail gun shotsI don't remember this at all.
All you did was take HMG emplacement, and just gun them down while the other guy went to drop the bomb. It was tense as fuck, but it would snowball if you spawned next to one and didn't prep. Basically forcing you back to lobby.
>they're pining for "the good old days" again
>Joel increased the regen on Cloarell
NO NO NO YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO LIBERATE THIS PLANET YET! STOP!!!!
>>532597093>difficulty 11Nta, but does anyone else think this game has way too many difficulties? I legit feel like you could cut it down to 5 or 6 and be completely fine.
>>532597675we need 15 like the first game
>>5325976757 to 8 is the only noticible jump due to enemy types changing.
I honestly play on 7 because the variety is more interesting and the spawn rate is less "sweaty" for DPS checks.
>>532597853I feel like they need to compress the difficulty. 2-4, and 6-8 is redundant.
What's up with elevated overseer accuracy.
https://streamable.com/e2sj33
Feels like they just instantly beam you the moment they see you, even if it's a little chip it's still just forced constant HP loss. Hell I'll stagger the fuckers sometimes and they'll turn around and just blast me the moment they un-stagger lol
>>532597527>I don't remember this at all.Never tried to gun down a gunship with the railgun before they nerfed gunships and buffed the railgun?
It was 13 fully charged shots on the engine for a single one.
>>532597787because the first game had 15 difficulties
>>532598030It's totally random, and they're actually really inaccurate. The issue with randomized accuracy is that when mixed with the devs' addiction to "realism" you get the potential for them to repeatedly headshot you and kill you instantly. The fact that Elevated Overseers are flying above you also manages to make this even more likely to happen.
>>532598021they could honestly get away with like 5 difficulties.
>Trivial: Low spawn rates, lower armor values and health>Easy: Normal spawn rates, lower armor values and health>Normal: Normal spawn rates and enemies>Hard: Higher tier enemies and normal spawn rates>VeryHard: 25% spawn rates (basically to coincide with all the buffs the players get from ship upgrades)
>multitudes of planets
>multitudes of difficulties
>50k players divided between them all
>lowest difficulties are so ridiculously easy it begs the question of why they even exist
they actually really do need to scale this shit back
the original had 15 difficulties, we haven't gone far enough
>>532598649Original difficulties actually scaled and let you unlock shit for beating each of them.
Mega cities have been terribly implemented into the game. They completely fuck up the way planets are liberated and split up the playerbase even more. I don't know how swedes can make the wrong choice literally every single fucking time. Its a mystery of science.
>>532598831Tbh think they just don't care and make game for tards that just wanna play funny shoot game
>>532598361Yeah, do it the way games like DT or KF did it. You have your standard ramp up of 5 difficulties corresponding with player skill from gamejournalist to hard+1, and then you tack on the "postgame" difficulty for sweats who have unlocked everything and know how to fight everything
>>532598831in reply to your post I will repeat myself for the swiggers in the back
>make all megacity missions give normal librate>capturing cities fully still gives a meaningful final bonus so people still have a reason to prioritize completion>bonus probably tuned to be a wash to the current numbers when you combine the normal lib% with the new full completion%>make normal rural and town missions also be tied to megacity style capture regions>region system allows more places to plug in high level mission modifiers and galactic war objectivesthe system is now more or less 100% fixed, by making planets into Matrioshka dolls of sub-capturable portions that can maybe influence each other
>>532598361>>532598938I do like how lower difficulties sort of serve as a way to slowly introduce different enemy types, but I agree with these.
>>532595272at least we won most of our MOs unlike botdivers
Add a skulls system like halo for retards who want ballbusting but optional gameplay
>>532595272>Was winning>NA Hours pop up>Steal DSS away for 2 voting cycles>Alamak starts losing>SEE WE SHOULD JUST PARK DSS ON CLAORELLFuck you botniggers, I'm voting the DSS on Achird 3 next out of pure spite.
>>532601003Didnt you guys lose every single invasion for several months straight and got multiple planets blown up?
>>532601181No one cares about a literal "who" planet.
>>532598353had to watch it 3 times to see what happened, but yeah that was just 2 headshots and a leg shot I think. Honestly wish we had a booster that was just reinforced helmets, and just negated headshot bonus damage. Would honestly take that every mission, just because how often random hits just swing for way more damage than I expect it to.
>rewatch footage of my epoch gameplay on release
>had an insane explosion radius, could kill like 6 zerkers in one shot
>would kill hulks in a single shot
>Now can barely kill 3 devs or two tap a hulk
I wonder if something fucky is going on with the host and epoch.
>DSS voting war
>when the MO isn't even liberation related
>>532602004This game can't seem to find a middle ground between 'basically harmless' and 'You will die in 0.5 seconds'.
>>532602202Yeah, it's like that's fine because yknow shit happens. But it kinda takes away the whole "tactical sense" or "resource sense" when I can't expect anything in terms of damage.
>>532602004There shouldn't even be a difference between body damage and head damage due to the obvious balance issues. Maybe add a head injury to serve as another broken limb kind of thing.
>>532602458Yeah, I mean it's kinda cool how like standing straight up means I'm less likely to get headshot by bugs and stuff. But a lot of random stuff fucks you over. Like impalers for instance one tap when they attack, mainly because they hit your head.
I think Eradicator is a pretty cool guy. Eh kills aleins and doesnt afraid of anything.
>>532602761>gives us purple cape>xbone release>halo cross over with elite (purple) and master chief themed armor
>>532515029r*dditors think we are "overpowered" because the Eruptor has a 70% pick rate. No you faggot it's just an over buffed meta weapon that meta slaves pick.
Once upon a time the tenderizer killed most small and medium sized chaff in 1 less shot to their weakest parts compared to the liberator. devastators were a good example of this where the liberator required 3 head shots while the tendierizer only needs 2. This made the lower capacity but higher damage tenderizer a pretty comeptitive pick on bots.
now they both kill things in the same number of shots because people whined and whined and whined and whined the liberator didn't do enough damage and it got buffed repeatedly. so why should you take the tenderizer over the liberator if the liberator has the same breakpoints but way more ammo, and now with attachments virtually the same recoil? You can't buff the tenderizer any more because the only appreciable buff you could do to it would be to lower the breakpoints so now it's 1 tapping devastators, but then now you've just taken a massive shit on the diligence which has even less capacity and its only saving grace is it can one-shot devastators.
>>532600867>games journalist>gamer
>>532602879Anything without ODSTs is pure slop
Console aimlet here, which primary is best for disposing of these fuckers from the front? My go-to strategy of shooting them in the dick isn't viable with that shield.
>>532604328You probably want something with lots of stagger then. A slugger, jar, or the purifier to simply bypass their shield.
>>532604328I was going to say aim to the left a little bit and shoot them in the leg but then I remembered consoles are slaved to their aimbots and literally can't do anything but aim center mass so you're just fucked m8
>>532604328shoot them in the face
>>532604328Shoot their arm off and/or pray
>>532604328Definitely the crossbow. Plasma guns are good too, but you might wanna run supply pack with them cause they eat ammo like crazy.
>>532604328For me it's the plasma punisher. Takes like 4 or 5 shots out of the 10 round mag and it's a slow kill still, but you can chain CC them to death. You also deal with the shitter bots in one shot too, which helps since purifier (which is the better weapon against these shotgun devs) tends to pushed by those shitter bots more easily than the PP does.
>>532604328Iโm a masochist and use fire-resistant armor with double-edge sickle.
>>532604328You don't need to play peek-a-boo with Eruptor and Purifier
>>532604328Several options:
1a. Use a scoped weapon and take out the head. Scythe is also good for this since it has zero recoil and inflicts zero stagger so it's easy to just trace your crosshair over the head.
1b. If your scoped weapon is AP3, pummeling the torso with enough bullets can result in a kill.
2. Go for the backpack, it's taller than the shield and blowing it up instantly kills the Devastator. It's stationary like the torso so it should be easy to focus down and destroy.
3. Focus its right leg, which isn't as protected by the shield. It jostles around a bit as it walks, but destroying either leg is an instant kill.
4a. Just use an explosive weapon and aim straight for center mass, explosions will knock the shield aside and inflict heavy stagger on the Devastator, leaving its torso wide open for follow-up shots. While it's staggered from explosions it can't shoot back at you, rendering it completely helpless. Autocannon, Grenade Launcher, Exploding Crossbow, Punisher Plasma, charged Purifier, Loyalist, you name it.
4b. The Wasp auto-locks and does enough explosive damage to outright kill it in one or two hits, requiring zero effort from you outside of being far enough away that the missiles can reliably home in.
>>532603729I unno give it more durable damage?
Tendy has like amazing ergo and 300 damage burst fire shots is really solid.
Like my favorite part about the gun is just how good the burst fire feels
>>532592623>picrel would one shot you with any of the four rockets it shot out infinitely>heavy devastators and related would shoot through cover>rockets? all one shots>a slight graze of the scorcher hulk's flamethrower would instantly kill you>inaccuracy application by shooting at bots didn't work, bots retained 100% accuracy>armor values didn't work, a base trooper could easily gun you down (try 50 armor in an acid storm)
