>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 Democracy™. 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.

Shit that's bad and why:

>Lib Concussive: Can only stagger one target at a time
>StA-52: No customization, worse than stock Lib in every way
>Constitution: It's the fucking Constitution
>StA-11: No customization, and it still eats magazines while reloading
>Slugger: A worse Dominator
>Breaker Spray&Pray: Dogshit damage, worse than stock Breaker in every way due to customization
>VC-39: Horrible ammo economy, mainly due to damage per round compared to other weapons
>Punisher Plasma: Charged Purifier does everything better
>Torcher: Stupidly short range

>Warrant: Dogshit damage and ammo economy, it's barely better than the Peacemaker
>Peacemaker: It's the fucking Peacemaker

>Stun Grenade: AT weapons are actually good against heavies now
>Smoke Grenade: Lol
>Throwing Knife: LOL
>Urchin: HAHAHAHA
>Arc Grenade: PFFFHAHAHAHAHAHA

>AMR: Horrendous ammo economy, due to small mag size, few reserve mags and very low ammo replenishment ratio
>Flamethrower: Short range for its damage and terrible ergonomics
>Airburst Rocket Launcher: It TKs easily and reload time is stupidly long
>Spear: Worse than the Recoilless in every way
>Arc Thrower: Only kills in a straight line, and low damage for a support weapon
>Sterilizer: Unable to kill shit in the support weapon slot
>One True Flag: I don't even need to say anything
>De-Escalator: All it does is stun on very low ammo economy
>Epoch: Heh

>Eagle Smoke: It's fucking smoke
>Eagle 110: Can't even properly kill heavies
>Orbital EMS: Nonlethal, and hinders players
>Orbital Smoke: Self-explanatory
>Tesla Tower: Kills teammates
>all Minefields: Cooldown is too long and battlefield is too dynamic
>Mortar Sentry: TK city
>all Exosuits: Too squishy, limited uses, long cooldown
>Laser Sentry: Short targeting range, targets 5 armor enemies despite not being able to damage them

I have swigger fatigue.

>>533763282
arc is a fun alternative to the gas grenade, only downside is that it can't close bug holes and the gas grenade for some bizarre reason can

You should be able to close bug holes with flamethrowers.

>minefields bad
3 mines is literally the game winner setup on 2/3 factions thoughbeit

hang all thoughbeit shartyniggers

>>533763282
>VC-39
Is this the plasma sniper from the Killzone collab?

>Torcher: Stupidly short range
I am a torcher fanatic and have literally never, ever had this issue. You do realise if you fire it towards the ground, it bounces up and travels further, right? This weapon pairs best with mobility backpacks, especially the jetpack. Only ever bring it for bugs though.

>Arc Grenade
I genuinely love this fucking thing, the only downside in my opinion is the lack of demo force. That IS a big downside, but it's a fun enough alternative that can absolutely shred crowds if you use two at once. I'm an engineering kit fag though so I guess I have a different perspective on grenade usage. That being said, arc nades are EXTREMELY bouncy for some fucking reason, so if you throw it and it hits an enemy before the ground, you can expect it to come straight back towards you. Seriously though, it's incredible if you can catch a train of bugs or illuminate chasing you and get them into a choke point. I'm regularly getting 20+ kills per use, but like I said, usually takes two per use case.

>Airburst Rocket Launcher
Has its place, like on defence missions. Not gonna defend it too hard, but it's not terrible.

>De-Escalator
I haven't used this since the Force of Law warbond dropped. Did they apply the fix to its damage? Was perfectly usable at the time.

>Eagle 110
Not great, but I like it on bot cities. It's not impacted by city geography like a strafing or airstrike is plus low cooldown, pairs well with EATs, commandos and/or sentries.

>Tesla Tower
It's fun :)

>Mortar Sentry
Look up.

>all Exosuits
Git gud, they're both usable on d10 bugs, d10 illuminate assuming there's no leviathans, but d10 bots they'll get shredded relatively quick.

>Laser Sentry
Honestly, you're correct on this, but I still have fun using it. Short enough cooldown that it's not too annoying. Pairs well with the MG turret ironically, but I only find it being useful on bugs.

On my hands and knees, praying the "SEKRIT PROJECT" is actually an engine overhaul for Helldivers. (It isn't, I'm coping)

will something happen before the xboners join or is it over

The clearest sign of a shitter is someone who complains about exosuits. He used to term "squishy" so I know for a fact that he's a gay little redditor.

>helldivers are le brainwashed cannon fodder... you're not supposed to be proud chud, you're supposed to be ashamed!!!!
is that so? tell that to my 200:1 K:D 10 inch dick sporting 7 foot tall diver that's viewed by the SEAF as a walking, talking god amongst men

>>533763990
even if not that, make it so that they're temporarily closed so that bugs can't spawn out of it.

>>533765339
the SEAFs don't even care that you exist and consistently throw grenades at you because you are close to enemies

>>533765531
as a walking god of course they're not worried, why would grenades hurt demi gods?

There are a lot of weapons or stratagems that help identify bad players whenever said players complain about them. For example, exosuits. If someone is still complaining about exosuits then you know you're dealing with a serious retard.

>dodge charger close to bug breach

Why did he do it?

So now that we're soon going into the gloom proper, I really hope there's more to the biomes than simply having them be the same but foggy and yellow with bits of bug goop thrown here and there. These planets have been infested with bugs for almost a year, I at least want to see the effect of that. Imagine if AH added random Super destroyer wrecks in some of the orbits from divers that got lost in the gloom. So many cool things they could do which will never happen

>>533783164
31 dead bugs for the price of one dead helldiver is a massive net positive for the bugs.
>1,000 dead bugs to 1 dead infantry is a net win for the bugs - startrek bloopers

>>533783735
i wouldn't mind seeing the supercolony biome come back, it seems sufficiently low-effort enough that it could be done, plus it was fun

Remember chuddies, you can't tell dad gamers they are messing up the MO but you also need to coordinate 65%+ of the players in order to beat said MO.

Nigger. It's nearly 3 seconds when upgraded.
>Sterilizer: Unable to kill shit in the support weapon slot
It kills all light chaff it touches and lets you fight cqc in any environment without getting zogged. People say gas dog is better but it depends on what slots you want to take.

>Eagle 110: Can't even properly kill heavies
Would be too efficient, just finish them off with your kit.

I get the impressions for a lot of this stuff, but most of these are just "I don't combo my gear with stuns or damage".

>>533763282
The amount of skill issue radiating from this post is palpable.

>>533798801
Your meant to pair it with other sources of damage like turrets or dot nades.

I kinda want a spooky occult science warbond from compromised scientist reverse engineering squid tech.

Armor with a hood, a glowing third eye on the forehead & the suggestion of tentacles/illuminid shapes & colors

>An energy rifle that can switch to melee mode & be a staff

If they cant get enough squidish things to make a warbond, maybe pad it with some bot or bug stuff too. Acid bile grenades & stuff. It's be cool to have the warp pack & some cultish armor & weird weapons

>>533802365
I think that'd be pretty cool

Literally slap on narrow choke, short mags, vertical grip, and a scope of choice.
Shit fucking mulches through hordes with how much ammo it has. It's even viable on squids since it makes shields go *poof*

This mission is so boring and ass now. I miss having 9 BTs and a dozen chargers storming through.

>>533804503
for some reason if you let the enemies call a breach or drop they'll spawn much more aggressive numbers of enemies. it seems like the breaches that spawn outside the walls have either fixed or much lowered spawns.

guys i was thinking of doing a doomguy larp for a few missions, i wanna get the punisher w/o sights so that's locked in. for secondaries i was thinking peacemaker, or maybe gaslighting myself into accepting the warrant because of auto aim. loyalist masquerading as plasma gun is acceptable as well.i wish there was a grenade of caustic green goop that reduced the armor class of any enemy in it by 1, but we can't have everything. i'll also brainwash myself into somehow perceiving the eats as the rocket launcher, the commando as the rocket launcher, the epoch as the bfg and the support pack, because nobody should suffer without just compensation from this.

Control group is like a joke right?
everything is just bad outside of the warp pack.
The epoch I have to assume is actually simply unfinished by AH.
It's not even close.

>>533804503

>>533806630
As someone that's been here for almost a year, no. Maybe one in 20 anons use the mic.
They don't get kicked or anythig like >>533806884 says but in general we're too autistic to talk to each other directly.

the only mic user rage quit after 2 missions because im new and brought the grenade launcher to a bug map

>>533805647
>>533806081
On one hand Joel's riggerfaggotry is tiresome, but on the other hand at least it'll mean that the bug order will rate will go from just under 95% to just over 90%, which is at least a little interesting to document.

the grenade launcher is goated on bug maps
people ragequit for the most retarded reasons
i had a dude rage quit because he couldnt stop walking on my mines
another ragequit beause we didnt reinforce the second he died
if someone ragequits its their problem

>>533807392
GL is good on bugs thoughever? At least as long as you or a teammate still has an answer for heavies.

>>533807392
But the grenade launcher is a pretty good weapon against bugs? It clears hordes, can start chain reactions on spewer packs, close bug holes, and even deal with chargers reasonably well if you know where to aim.

>>533807523
>>533807568

>>533805671

3/4

>>533807661
its decent for blowing up charger butts too in a pinch
fact of the matter is if you had time to fire at a charger butt, then people with dedicated AT werent doing their job and the retard had no right to complain

Why can't I ever be satisfied with any primary that isn't the Eruptor or Purifier?

>>533807661
>but he got mad that i was trying to use it on the back of those heavy rush guys
I mean it's still pretty good for that as long as you direct impact or it goes off right under it. The only thing you just don't have an answer for is bile titans. But there's nothing stopping you from taking EATs as well.

emancipator is too based

>>533807927
Because most primaries are meant to compliment your support weapon. Those two act like primaries that want the other slots to compliment them.

>>533805671
4/4 full

>>533807970
i brought the eagle bomb runs and the 500kg bomb, grenade launcher and a sentry. i was going to switch the launcher to eats on 3rd map but he bailed. its all good though

>>533807460
it'd be even more based if the bug fags clutch this.
>sub 95% faction fags

>>533808125
EATs are great, honestly you get the most powerful strats first. MMG is great, EATs are great, Eagle air strike is fantastic, 500k is really strong, MG sentry is pretty fucking good after the cooldown buff.

>>533808283
Very true. the bigger the disparity between the botfag winrate and the bugfag winrate, the more I get to smugpost.

>>533807991
Patriot is better on bugs and tied with it on squids, but it's better on bots.
I honestly wish I could bring both like the old days...

>>533809003
You can just focus on heavies and stomp over chaff bugs. You dont even need to melee, just walk over them. You'll run out of ammo before they damage your limbs anyway

>>533809003
emancipator is best on all factions, but patriot has BRRRRRT

>>533809316
That works for the Patriot too.
I've literally brought a mech of one sort or the other to every single mission since the day they released the Patriot.
I likely have more time in a mech than most people here have total play time.

>>533809003
Patriot is better on bots and squids, Emancipator is better on bugs.

>>533811260
What makes you say that?
In my experience it's the exact opposite.

>>533811923
The Patriots rockets work better to quickly deal with the bots that can easily kill your mech while the Emancipators ACs let you close bug holes and demolish every bug side objective with ease.
And minigun just shreds squids though the Emancipator is better at dealing with leviathans.

I’m convinced people who seethe about mortars have to be clinically retarded.
I agree that all grenades suck except like two, the rest you just take for funsies, or are called thermites which I refuse to use for autismo reasons (what’s up with the secondary explosion doing so much damage?)
Tesla towers are certified helldiver classics btw. Part and parcel.

>>533765531
Nah, they do it because they know you’re invulnerable to the means of meager material beings.

>>533813991
NTA but I'm still going to say bringing mortars to bug missions is retarded. They're fine against bots, decent if mixed on squids.

>>533763074 (OP)
Are we really about to fail this MO because bugniggers are too stupid to move away from the DSS, go to the correct sector, and pick up samples?

I take tesla towers, mines, and mortars all the time. It's part of the game. If you keep getting killed by them then just get out of my way. That's on you, buddy.

>>533814514
It's because the planet that needs to be defended to win the MO is in the wrong fucking sector.

>bring rail gun to bugs
>entire time think "man I should have just brought epoch"

like the one thing railgun has currently over epoch is accuracy, but once they fix that it's pretty much a direct upgrade

>>533812948
NTA but Emancipator ACs can kill hulks in one shot to the eye. It is better than Patriot against bots for that reason alone.

>>533815215
You could just bring QC and outclass them both

>>533815345
I like the versatility of railgun and epoch. Quasar is only for heavy killing.

>>533815426
So is the epoch, it has a tiny aoe, awful ammo economy and a charge up. it sucks against chaff, it sucks against mediums and is outclassed by every other backpackless AT option in the AT role

>>533763282
>Smoke is bad

Smoke is S-tier on bots. You can pop-smoke on any objective and do what ever you want. All those times you decided to run away but got shot in the back and killed, you probably would have survived with a smoke grenade. It's incredibly useful if you use it, it's just tough to give a red or green stratagem or grenade slot for it. If we had a tactical grenade slot I would take them every game.

>>533799530

What does the arc GL do better than the conventional one?

minefields should be eagle stratagems like in the first game
they deploy way too slowly and too randomly to be useful except on defense missions

d10 any steam://joinlobby/553850/109775244058025990/76561198066017633

>>533821218
I would assume because of arc jumps.

Design a 'mass coordination' system that wouldn't immediately be useless, inundated by trolls, or opens access breaks community guidelines (you don't care about this, but devs do).
The DSS was originally useless and now is sorta ok at directing the blob to a planet, but realistically the blob drags it around.

killing bile titans/chargers from the sides/front, dupes kills (pair this with the portable hellbomb and the yellownumberfag's ego will never recover)

I know I'd be asking too much of this game but I'd really like the idea of supply lines and the location of where you conduct operations actually contributing to
>how difficult the operation is(i.e you can't get resupply/reinforcement/support that easily)
>how it affects other missions(successful missions behind enemy lines soften up the "front line" since you've disrupted their supply lines and/or drawn attention)
Basically the idea of how in Planetside any random bumfuck engagement could actually contribute to the planetary war in a tangible way but applied to PvE.

that'd actually be really nice, because mines usually detonate after clearing a wave. Just being able to stack and layer them would actually be pretty good. You could also have them self detonate after 30 or so seconds to clear the area for performance and so randos don't step on them.;

>>533822750
they might as well just remove helmet options

>>533822750
A lot of it looks better in deployment than on ship, but yeah it’s never seamless.
>>533824159
>mine stacking
Bring 2+ mine strats
>mine self removal
That defeats the purpose/fun of mines overall, especially on small maps. Also improves the elitistist factor of jetpacks, literally flying over grounded plebs wading through your mine fields.

So to get from AP 2->4, it lost 800m of range.
Instead of just putting the laser cannon on the laser turret, they should have made it its own weapon: an unfocused miniature orbital laser, reduce its range to 50, increase its AP to 5; since that’s all the targeting could handle.
Also makes me think firing modes for beam weapons would be sick.

That’s my personal support to primary port wish. Picturing a TC- encore, but 20mm and HD2. I never use the AC, as a quasarjak, but I would wife that pure sex on the spot.
I think id rather a quasar secondary, if making a wishlist, since there’s a president with the ultimatum, in a sense. Just give it identical damage stats to the support weapon, but a minute long cooldown.
>squad leans out of their recon vehicle, pulls out their hand cannon in a show of synchronicity emulative of ye old Calvary dragoons

you suffer through your energy Commando being anus or you wait til it gets patched, any other desired buffs notwithstanding they acknowledged the spread is completely wrong.

>>533835142
saw a post that implied epoch was originally a heavy plasma shotgun type deal so i wouldnt doubt it if the plas punisher was the base and it fired a fuck ton of plas punisher shots or something at first but just never changed that value after retooling for AT

if the primary/uncharged fire was a scattershot weapon that would absolutely fix its slight identity problem and near total lack of reason to use uncharged fire currently outside an emergency where if you don't you die
>charged shot gets spread value that doesn't suck, overcharge synchronized to the muzzle flash, maybe a quarter-half second more hang time, it's really fine as is otherwise even if an extra shot or a smidge more breakpoint damage would be nice
>uncharged shot changed from a slightly bigger AP4 Purifier that you'll probably never really feel like using now to a shotgun carpet of unfocused smaller plasma balls between the uncharged Purifier and Punisher, it's like firing Napoleonic era canister shot but purple
>probably AP3, would match the size of plasball and suffice for what amounts to a weaker cluster launcher with fewer steps
>give it more ammunition per gas cartridge like 6-8 but charged shots cost double for the same current or a slightly buffed/evened out ammo economy in the hard AT role
>if you give it the boosted mags+double cost charged shots the current uncharged might also be just fine left as is with a spread that isn't retarded as is it's just a much angrier energy autocannon/AMR with good AoE/Eruptor with pure splash over fragmentation that simply lacks the usable spread and ammo economy to be used as such, fix those and it's golden
>you could even go further and give it two charge levels as the weapon gradually focuses and calibrates- tap for incoherent shotgun with short holds tightening spread, one flash for current plasruptor, two flash for overcharge plasAT taking 1/2/3 mag charges respectively plus one hard fixed shot dispersion stat for charge levels 2-3
that sounds like a weapon worth risking exploding over. As long as you keep the ammo economy scant compared to backpack equivalents to its two charged levels, maybe a little less scant than now, it will be a strong pick that doesn't obsolete more specialized options.

It is cute but holy shit is it traumatic when they just willing path into a mine that isn't even along a straight path. Like JOEL himself guided them into death before my eyes. It is different when you're actively trying to save them versus them dying in a mission.

>>533833053
I holding out that it will be +2 stim, mags, and nades

>>533842074
>>533840726
Absolutely not.
Most I would expect would be a baseline change to give you back half of your max grenades and stims rounded up. 3-4 grenades gives you 2 back, 5-6 grenades gives you 3 back, 7-8 grenades gives you 4 back. Same thing with stims.

>>533841929
>It is different when you're actively trying to save them versus them dying in a mission.
During the Super Earth invasion I was busting my ass trying to protect the little fuckers, but they actively try to kill themselves to the point where its not even a desperate struggle as much as it is an annoyance.
Rescue Civilians and Reinforce SEAF Battlement should be a megacity secondary objectives, so that you could just round up civilians and SEAF and escort them to bunkers and battlements instead of just watching them cut their own heads off.

>>533839534
>that sounds like a weapon worth risking exploding over.
Umm, sweetums. It's OK for weapons to be terrible jokes. The epoch, like the flag and throwing knives, is just as it's intended :)

>>533841908
I will call down supply pods at primary mission objectives and maybe at the evac site if I'm dropping off samples for later. I don't need the samples, but someone else might.

Helldivers is a game that likes killing you out of nowhere either from jank, teammates, or the occasional enemy being suddenly cognizant. Perhaps those kinds of shitters doing d10 enjoy getting their balls busted. Shouldn't come as a surprise considering how nerftrannies act, since it isn't really all that different in the end.

you and me both, but where are the underbarrels for conventional primaries? where's the muzzle attachment rifle grenades? Where are the modular bayonets?

>>533860743
HOW FUCKING DARE HE

>>533858819
I don’t think they’d need to rebalance it that much. The same exact numbers, but playing out split into a scatter shot of 4 punisher balls uncharged, and functionally a delayed plasma EAT projectile wise when charged, wouldn’t be unbalancing.
They can release a bigger v2 simultaneously with the changes as an emplacement weapon, which is just a plasma mortar, for all the people who like to larp as crescent overseer tech users.
>>533860554
Support weapons I can kind of get, since they come from the factory (even though every iced helldiver on your ship is wiped the same way, so it stands to reason it could be customized in line with whatever decision making goes into that logistical autism)
But secondaries having no camo is a definitely a head scratcher. Seems like low hanging fruit.

Stingrays. Autocannon suit used to be goat on squids but you just can't take it any more with leviathans and stingrays around.

>>533874173
Turing’s close to winning as it is, but I’d suggest diving on the planet, not the cities. They’re making good progress down there, on both cities, but we’ll win the defense before they win the cities.

that brings it in line with every other pistol caliber round having 60% drag factor
except the warrant which still only has 30%, the default drag factor for ballistic weapons.

They should nerf the warp pack.

Because it's arc, it, well, arcs. Making it a TK machine if you're near teammates at all.

>>533881891

>>533881891
Very strong. But also pretty much a solodiver stratagem unless other players bring shock res armour. Even if you perfectly try to control that dog it'll TK people eventually. And if you're just keeping it off the majority of the time you're around your team then it's basically a wasted stratagem to begin with.

Where does its damage come from??? It’s literally the same round as the machine gun from a shorter barrel going slightly slower.

Are you talking about the AMR?
That's easy, They don't use the same round. The AMR has an explosive round while the HMG fires an inert round
AMR fires 12.5x100 EIT, which stands for "Explosive, Incendiary, Tracer"
HMG fires 12.5x100 BCHP, which stands for "Ballistic Capped, Hollow Point"

I'm from the future. They're going to re-run the Killzone stuff. They've been waiting this long because they wanted to avoid the shitstorm of temporarily bringing back the killzone stuff only for the entire xbawks community to be unable to participate.

For me, it's the humble warrior, the underrated waifu

>>533881891
It's like having an incompetent retard following you around with an arc thrower. On the plus side, even with an incompetent retard behind the wheel it's still a fully fledged support weapon providing extra fire support.

The downside is that it is controlled by an incompetent retard who will happily zap stuff when friendlies are within the danger zone. To offset this, the team either needs to coordinate and bring shock armor or you need to do your very best to tard wrangle the shockdog via deactivation, staying on the frontline, or running off to complete objectives solo.

No. No gears bond. No halo bond. Just killzone re-release. You rike?

I'm very tempted to drop the link to the hack that simply lets you spawn SC in your mission, so arrowmod copers can stop coping.

I know for a fact that swedes can't get rid of it because I've reported it and showed them how the exploit works in detail and they did absolutely nothing about it for the past 10 months.

explain to a new player how these nest work. do i have to call in the 500kg to clear a nest or whatever? i dont mean the ones that you use the grenade launcher to close up the nest holes. and those radio towers as well, to blow them up. and how the fuck do i get a hellbomb? is that an objective call in. i try my best to keep up with the lobbies from here but most of the time i feel like im sprinting to follow to barely keep up and i hate the feeling of being dead weight

>>533892656
>on purpose

>>533889496
They're just a completely boring motherfucking faction. Them and bug bricks are the worst parts of the game by far, with bug extermination being only a slip bit above that because at least that dogshit mission has respect for your time and ends in 5 minutes or so unlike bricks that blows a good 15 minutes of your life away for absolutely 0 entertainment value given.

>>533893403
you just need something with a good amount of demo force to shut the hole, like an ultimatum round, OPS, or falling hellpod

>>533893403
Best solution to the BT hole is typically just throwing a 500kg near it, so when you're attacking the meganest make sure you have that ready for it in case the meganest has one.

>>533893986
how does a hellpod close that shit up but when i aimed and landed on the robot at/at in hopes to kill it i just landed and spawned on top of it

>>533893403
Before I answer your questions, let me start by talking about a stat called "demo force." Each weapon has a demo force value, and certain objectives can be destroyed if struck by an attack with a sufficiently strong demo force value. THIS IS NOT EXPLAINED ANYWHERE WITHIN THE GAME BECAUSE SWEDEN FUCK SWEDEN GOD DAMN RETARDS. The hellbomb is our most powerful weapon in terms of demo force, but normally we can't call it down. If you get sufficiently close to an objective, such as an automaton detector tower, then you get given access to the hellbomb stratagem. However sometimes alternative weapon options with less demo force than a hellbomb is sufficient for the job. For example detector towers and illegal research stations can be destroyed by 500kg bomb, orbital precision strike, walking barrage, orbital laser, 120mm barrage, and 380mm barrage. Technically orbital Gas strike can do it too if the shell itself strikes the objective.

In terms of closing the mega nest, it's simply a big fucking nest with a bunch of holes everywhere. You need to destroy every hole within the nest. Grenades and such are sufficient for this task. HOWEVER there tends to be one bile titan hole within a mega nest that will spam the fuck out of bile titans when a player gets near. The bile titan hole is too strong to be destroyed with a grenade. You need an attack with higher demo force to knock it out. Relevant attacks that people frequently use to close bile titan holes.
>500kg/OPS/gas strike will close it. So will the bigger barrages.
>the "ultimatum" sidearm
>hellpods. If you call in a supply drop or a support weapon or a sentry turret in such a way that it hits the BT hole, then it will close it. This includes dying and directing your respawn pod to hit it
>bile titan stomps. If you're a mad lad who stands in the hole, BTs themselves can close the hole with their stomps. Their death flail can close it too.

>>533893403
>hellbomb
they become available for call-in at objectives that need them, or you can unlock a portable version later on
>i feel like im sprinting to follow to barely keep up and i hate the feeling of being dead weight
you'll get better dont sweat it. until then dont be afraid to stim up to keep running if you're lagging behind and just focus on not killing teammates and you'll be fine.

>>533894225
The damage system is fucking autistic. Some objects have healthbars and are destroyed via damage. Some are just marked with demo force values and are destroyed by exceeding that demo force. Some have both. Some targets are immune to explosives. Some targets have "durability" which causes them to take a weapon's "durable damage" instead of its normal damage (durable damage is not displayed ANYWHERE in game).

Landing the hellpod on the Factory Strider "AT-AT" did damage it. Hellpods inflict a respectable amount of damage. Factory Striders just have a metric fucking SHIT TON of HP and take forever to kill if you're not knowledgeable enough to concentrate fire on a weak point.

>>533894462

>>533894731
>thanks i never saw the demo force stat before
You didn't see it because the swedes don't fucking explain it anywhere in the game and they don't think it's important to explain it because they're retarded fucking swedes. The only reason that we know how the system works is because of dataminers.

>>533894731

strafing run can close titan hole

>>533894939
strafing run only has 30 demolition force, bile titan hole needs 40. post a webm of a strafing run closing a bile titan hole (and not a bile titan getting hit by the strafing run collapsing or stepping into the hole causing the bile titan to close it instead)

Is the laser sentry good?

>>533894896
So here's what you should know about factory striders. First off the game fucking lies, or at least isn't sufficiently detailed, when they say that weapons have "light, medim, and heavy armor penetration". Armor, and armor penetration are integer values. Tanks for example mostly have level 5 armor. If your AP value exceeds the armor level, then you do full damage. If it matches it, then you do 65% damage. If it is loser then you do no damage. If the attack strikes at an extreme glancing angle, then AP value can be reduced.

When attacking factory striders, there are a lot of ways to interact with them but IMO these are the most important bits.
>if you don't think that you can meaningfully damage a FS, then consider attacking the gatling gun "fangs" on the head. They are armor level 3. In game terms you can attack them with "medium armor pen" weapons. They are immune to explosive damage. These fangs are extremely deadly, but the FS is largely toothless once you destroy them.
>the "Eye" is vulnerable to anti-tank weapons like the EAT and recoiless rifle. It is armor level 4. The "eye" is actually an inner head assembly that is surrounded by an armored helmet. This inner assembly is attackable from the sides, but the most prominent hole in the armor is from the front around the glowing red "eye". The recoiless rifle can kill an FS with one hit to the eye, but other AT weapons need 2 hits.
>the feet are another armor level 4 weakpoint. It's actually a leg assembly and you can attack the knee joints, but the feet are most exposed. Each leg has its own HP. Two AT rockets to the same foot will kill it.
>the underbelly is an armor level 3 weakpoint. Each door has its own HP, so concentrate fire. This is the FS's most vulnerable point, but it is hazardous to get into position to exploit it.

>>533895713
if you're not tossing it into a bug breach it can last about as long as an MG or gatling can

man crisper feels really mid, like floor flames are so inconsistant so it's kinda hard to justify it unless you're using solely for heavy killing.

>>533895817
>>533894896
Here's an example of using this info to kill an FS quickly.
>the pyrotech "sparkler" grenades toss out sparks that inflict AP5 damage.
>the Quasar cannon to the foot deletes most of the foot's HP, but isn't enough to kill it in one shot.
>the sparklers damage the foot and finish off what's left of the foot's HP. This destroys the inner leg assembly, which destroys the entire FS.

>>533895950
i didnt know any of this and am beyond surprised the neck isnt a weak point which is what i aimed all my eats at

>>533895827
>>533896102
Alright cool I'm getting it then

>>533896036
there's literally no reason the neck shouldnt be a weak point except some doofus at AH didnt want their game to be star wars because they hate fun

>>533896036
For what it's worth, the neck is a weakpoint. Equivalent to the "eye" I think. In practice it's just significantly harder to hit the neck due to a combination of the head moving around and hitbox fuckery. If you can hit the neck, then you can more easily hit the eye or that "temple" spot right above the automaton logo on the side of the head. Consequently there is no reason to ever really aim for the neck.

The EAT also still needs 2 hits to the neck to kill it. Just like the EAT needs 2 hits to the eye. But your teammates are probably also shooting at the eye, so it's better for you to both go for the eye than split your efforts between the neck and eye.

>>533896151
those are eagles 2 through 12. you can call in eagle 1 while a DSS eagle is firing, proving beyond a shadow of a doubt that eagle 1 is loyal to you and loves you

>>533896151
Those aren't your Eagle-1. They're an independent fleet that dock in the DSS hangers until deployed.

>>533896290
>>533896170
>>533896036
Pic related. The neck weak point. There's not really a reason to ever go for it over the eye. The "eye" can be attacked from more sides and is probably where teammates are concentrating fire.

If you are in a position that sees the feet, the feet are large and go through predictable periods of being stationary, so they're the easiest target. There's just no reason to go for the neck with AT weapons over the feet or eyes.

>>533896290
>>533896513
not knowing any of this i would go for the neck because being in front of it while it have huge guns pointing directly at you instead of behind on its flank made way more sense to me
