>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.

Daily reminder SEAF "chan" look like this, it's weird seeing her fan arts trying so hard to portray her as someone completely different because coomer pedophile nazis can't handle the fact their make-believe blue eye, blonde hair loli waifu is actually a Black women according to the lore and to the game developers themselves.

I found this while digging in the game archive for the Sickle
>NOT IMPLEMENTED The 'SCYTHE' is a rifle based on experimental Super Earth developed laser technology. It fires a continuous beam capable of heating up surfaces to extreme temperatures in seconds.
The beam is focused on extreme distance but can be focused further using different prisms, allowing for greater damage if used correctly. Refocusing the beam reduces the efficiency for the non focused interval.

>>534147230
They still are reliable at killing chargers, tanks, and factory striders.

Pubbies are so fucking stupid.

I had a lobby with two level 50+ playing on D9, missile silo mission bots.

I had to do every fucking thing. I took out every base, did every objective, took out the double gunship factory, they used all the lives accomplishing fuck all. I took out a bot drop and patrol alone while they got hard filtered by the pipeline terminal puzzle with no enemies around. By a miracle the one who knew how to do the solo part pulled the final stop and reinforced me on the terminal so i could launch the missile after getting surrounded doing 90% of the silo alone. Then at extract after I killed majority of the enemies closing in on us one of them (wearing shield diaper) shot me with the ultimatum and then he died pathetically running in circles.

How can you be over level 50 and not know how to do the missions. Is it flouride??? How are pubbies so fucking stupid? This game is a simple IQ check

Halo bond as stated is what absolutely everyone expects, but the Aug 26th double release of both sexbox Helldivers 2 and reGears is suggestive of a disturbingly realistic alternative that might make people really mad and lead to an inevitable Halo bond anyways.

What the fuck are we even doing here anymore?
The swedes aren't gonna implement any of the changes we want, the quality of the content they've been releasing has dropped to subpar, lobbies have been posted less and less.
Do we only exist here to argue about namefag trannies, AI-posters and whatever argument has been reused for the 952543rd time?

And what the fuck happened to the ARG anyway? Quick rundown doko?

I'm gonna sounds like a shill but at just over 1000 hours im still having fun just playing the game. but i look at it like these devs are learning in real time how to do a mainstream live service game and I'm just excited to see what's up next, even if it's bad. it may not ever be the game we want but it'll be a game i play for a long time. i think we'd get a lot more lobbies if consoloids felt comfortable posting friend ids and i think that's gonna happen once xbox is integrated

>>534149915
there's no content to discuss so it just devolves into pointless arguments. the tranny attention whores are just a 4chan constant

>arg qrd
there were some menial bullshit tasks that required community cooperation to complete. Went about as well as expected for this community, and eventually we turned the satellite feed back on. Purple circle appeared off in the distance, started moving, and then pic related generic slipspace rupture detected ripoff. then we got the cape two months after everyone forgot about it

I generally don't like backpacks. Supply pack aside - which I don't need due to running an ammo efficient loadout; also plebs always picking HSO - no backpack stratagem seems worth the asking price of one entire slot. I'd rather bring one more red/green/support item and leave my back slot open to later snatch a backpack for free or team reload someone. Or bring a TR weapon of my own. Autocannon fucks.

>>534150091
is this an out of season April fool's joke?

>>534150091
Doesn't it target the largest enemy in proximity? So there can't even be devastators nearby.

What? Don't you have all the red gems unlocked by now?

>>534150418
you posted this last thread

>>534150381
The turnaround time on the cape is the most mind-boggling part. It either implies they genuinely thought adding it two months after the event was relevant was a good idea, or it took them two fucking months of development pipeline to get it done. Not to say that it took two months to make, but took two months between getting the idea approved and getting it started, finished, finalized, and implemented.

>>534150629
I deemed it worth repeating. Some anons seem to believe you're obligated to take a backpack. But they're just popular, not really "meta".

>>534150702
the swedes are not known for their work ethic

>>534150091
>It's real
What the fuck? Why?

>>534150091
i guess it could work if we target dropships, the question is, will the downed dropship count as a railcannon hit or as impact damage/non-related explosion
One thing's for sure though, you can't do that efficiently on the higher difficulties, too many devastators and heavy units packed in them

>>534150702
>two months to shart out an ugly cosmetic item
Absolutely positively grim.

>>534150579
it'll only be funny if they give us infinite low or no cooldown railcannons, a 3 minute timer to kill one trash mob is gay and nobody's going to do this

>Says its Duma Tyr and Julheim as liberated despite it being automaton owned
>also 2.5m troopers kills with a stratagem THAT TARGETS large enemies

The summer janny intern is getting fired tomorrow I guess? How did this even get pass as the MO? Sweden work ethics are so fucking bad bro

Imagine the orbital railcannon mistaking the robutt for a trooper and it gets fucking blasted

>>534150094
Me too!

>>534151162
Even if they gave it out right now as a free gimme its never getting done. Like >>534150963 elaborated, the railcannon's targeting priority means you would have to go out of your way to the extreme to make it lock onto trash mobs.

>>534150809
And yet the bones of the game are so good.

>>534150757
backpacks are meta almost by definition
>gunpacks
keep chaff off you and make the game a lot easier
>supply pack
infinite grenades, ultimatum rounds, railgun and hmg mags, stims
>hellbomb pack
trivialized objectives
>shield pack
counters ragdoll and oneshots
>warp pack, jump pack
trivializes the movement penalty for heavier armors, aids escape
>hover pack
helps you get above chaff waves on squid and bug
they are all absolutely meta by design, but i agree that you're not obligated to take one. it just depends what you want to do with your build.

>kill 2.5 million of a specific enemy type with a stratagem that can only kill 1 of them every 4-5 minutes so long as it's the only enemy in the vicinity
Did they think that would be fun? Its basically a tax on everyone's loadout.

>>534151372

>>534151486

>>534150418
I've gravitated towards no taking a support weapon and just using whatever I find in the field personally.

I pick whatever loadout I want, regardless of what other people are bringing.
Oh, my loadout struggles with killing armored enemies? Good, finally some difficulty on the table!

>>534151450
All of that is good, just not "spend a whole slot" good. I still like the idea of a 5th exclusive backpack slot that auto-fills if you take a team reload weapon.

do you think the enemy for the MO was just picked from a dropdown list in alphabetical order of the internally commented names, and it was actually supposed to be something like tank_annihilator that was selected but Joel misclicked down by one onto trooper_generic without giving a shit?

>>534149915
At this point /hdg/ is a waiting room in which we reminisce the game that was, contemplate the game that could have been, and hate the game we ended up getting. This will go on until some new FOTM sweeps us up and makes us forget the whole past 18 months. Some anons wanna cope it's BF6 and while BF Studios obviously cannot be trusted I hope they're right.

Gears and Halo are the only universes that would make sense for a collab due to AH autism. COG grunt armor with and without the sleeves are perfect for the shitty grunt fantasy. Halo obviously has the ODST armor and then UNSC Marine armor. Not sure what version because only Halo Infinite and Reach have their faces covered up. Can't really have a exposed face for helldivers.

>>534148061
Imagine the backlash if they fucking choose the Halo 4 Marine designs or even 343 ODST

Arrowhead genuinely believe there's nothing wrong with the orbital railcannon strike and its abysmal pick rate can be fully explained by players just not giving it a chance. Remember that they don't look at feedback because it hurts their feelings. They also generally don't perceive an item that is worse than all of its alternatives as a balancing issue.

>>534150091

>>534155778
the ORS exists for one reason, and it's for people who are too lazy to aim their AT reds. And even then, the Eagle 110MM arguably does that better.

>>534154746
But do they know that? Swiggers dont play their own game.

>>534155778
ORS is fine on bugs, but yeah could use a buff for bots

>>534155943
There is value in a fire-and-forget orbital stratagem. Putting out a heavy by passing by, or around a corner, is genuinely fun and useful. But it got choked by that completely overblown cooldown. It should be in the ballpark of 60-100 seconds. Rocket pods should just plain do more damage. There's exactly one Eagle stratagem considered S tier right now. There's no harm in making the others a bit less wimpy.

>>534156076
120 seconds after upgrades would be fine. anything lower and you're just making a skill less strategem optimal.

I'm pretty sure it can't be a commisar or brawler or mg gunner either. It has yo specifically be the Trooper.

>>534157787
go to d1 mission and stand near exrtract, throw ems, clump the troopers on the edge of the strategem and keep stunning with stun nades, throw railcannon ontop of them. get like 10 kills and repeat until you hit 150.

>>534158354
here's my genius solution: we add up to 3 additional inputs on the end of ORS's stratagem code that determines how strong it is, no extra arrows nets you basically an eagle 110mm, two arrows is ops strength, 3 is original strength, with longer cooldowns for higher power because it has to recharge more or some shit idk hire me

>>534158745
That's kinda funny, honestly tho I just want 2 charges total, and get one refreshed on the normal cooldown window.

Just tried this and never got a single trooper with my strat on d10.

I've noticed helldivers 2 players are the most annoying asshole players of any game, Ive never been teamkilled (purposefully) or kicked for the most mundane reasons this much vefore

>Kill troopers with one of the least efficient anti-tank options
>Said troopers spawn in groups of other rank-and-file bots
>If you're retarded enough to actually play by the MO you'd be rolling a dice whether the railcannon targets the trooper or the raider next to it

This is easily the most retarded community in gaming right now. And that's saying a lot.

>>534157279

Kill clankers. Behead clankers. Roundhouse kick a clankers onto the landing pad. Slam dunk a clanker head into the trashcan. Crucify filthy clankers. Defecate in a dreadnoughts fuel tank. Launch niggers into the Hellbomb. Stir fry niggers in a smelter. Toss clankers into active bug holes. Urinate into a niggers gas tank. Twist clankers heads off. Report niggers to the Ministry of Truth. Karate chop clankers in half. Curb stomp devastators. Trap clankers in quicksand. Crush clankers in the trash compactor. Liquefy clankers in a vat of bile titan acid. Eat clankers. Dissasemble clankers. Exterminate clankers in the gas chamber. Stomp clankers skulls with steel toed boots. Cremate clankers in the oven. Deprogramme clankers. Mandatory app manager abortions for clankers. Grind clankers in the garbage disposal. Drown clankers in fried E710. Vaporize clankers with orbital laser. Destroy clanker soldiers with orbital rail cannon strikes. Kick old cyborgs down the stairs. Feed clankers to chargers. Slice clankers with a saber

I don't understand. you're communicating through a text medium so you can clearly read, so why do you think that says they made it longer when, in fact, they made it shorter?

>>534159681
Honestly never experience this. The only times i get kicked is when i join chink lobbies and they insta-kick me cause they didn't set their game to private

>>534159681
do you have crossplay on? if you do that won't help matters, I'd say it would even provide for most of your grief

>getting mad over what is clearly and obviously a fucking joke MO
what a bunch of miserable, joyless, humourless serial complainers

>>534160318
If it was funny I would be laughing.
I am not laughing.

Why couldn't it be a gatling barrage or an airburst strike at least? It takes 180 seconds to come back after I hit a single trooper if it doesn't target the hulk protecting all it's little trooper-kuns.

>>534160416
It's a very funny joke MO were you're supposed to farm troopers on D1

>>534147230
>>534147657
because they don't rely on applying a status effect but instead shoot out damaging particles completely independently of the DoT system

>>534160318
being sick and tired of clowns that are principally averse to applying themselves and taking anything seriously isn't the same as being joyless

wondering if you could use the hover pack to get on top of somewhere tall enough for them to get stuck below, funnel as many troopers below you as possible, and take out groups with the railgun
maybe hover pack, laser cannon, orbital ems, orbital rail cannon for one guy
rest of the party goes AT and tries to get every enemy to one spot of the map while taking out anything else the rail cannon could target

This game is barely worth playing because of all the crashes ingame, I cant wait for Battlefield 6

>>534160701
A jet brigade attack could push it a bit closer, since it replaces a lot of zerkers + devas with more troopers

>>534160916
I wonder if the other players could smoke themselves off and transfer the aggro to the hover pack player
3 guys with scout armor, AT, jump packs to get around fast, and smokes and ems/stun to section off heavys

>zero reinforcements left, one player is in reinforcement limbo spamming the request key
>the other two are fucking around with enemy drops about 150m from extract
>fuck it, go activate the beacon

I still don't understand what the fuck they were trying to do.

>>534159681
you haven't played a left 4 dead with randoms then, you'll see the deepest pits of humanity, if you could even call it that.

Bugsissies get the trivial 'Kill N bugs' orders because they have no expectations placed upon them.
BotGODS get the hard major orders because we are the elite of the elite. We're the best there is.

That never works, these people live here and if you don't give them attention they just keep shitposting. Then if we're lucky they get banned until they spend 5 minutes resetting their router and they're back to it.
You fence sitting tards ate the absolute worst. Pussies who won't do anything but will point the finger, like the Karen of the internet lol.

>>534161339
Botcucks are domesticated MOnkeys who will dance on command for peanuts. BugCHADS do what they please and make the devs cater to them lest they become displeased and review bomb the game.

>>534161153
Made this just for you anon.

>>534159681
I've mostly only ever been teamkilled accidentally and people usually say use the "I'm sorry" voiceline right away, even chinks. The one time I got griefed was when I was just standing at extract and got shot by a teammate and he picked up my samples and brought them elsewhere and dropped them before the others revived me. He was very low level too so I have no idea why he'd want to throw samples away other than to be a dick for shits and giggles. It just confused me.

>>534160318
If the goal was 1M or so, then I'd see it as a joke. 2.5M is "Wait, you're serious?"

YES

>>534148061

Armor lock backpack would be pretty good actually

>>534174968
video games are serious business, and pve video games doubly so

>>534174968

>>534174968

>the objective requirement is extremely high
>the red stratagem cooldown is extremely long
>the stratagem is just unfunny garbage to use
I would maybe understand orbital precision strike, but orbital railcannon is just a straight "shove your nigger MO up your ass, I'm not going to dive on lower difficulties with stun grenades to group up troopers in a single railcannon's small ass AOE just to help complete that garbage."-tier MO

>>534158712
trvke, gweilo couldnt defend its own city after the squigger patch

>>534176154
It is on a downward trajectory right now. We've had less but that doesn't mean we can't get there again sometime in the future.
Currently we have two factions and a third mini faction. I like playing against the two factions we have but it gets stale eventually.
The third mini faction is so boring that everyone that came back for the Super Earth defense left shortly after.
They need to release the full Illuminate roster or just outright overhaul the faction entirely to make it competitive with bugs and bots.
That and more reds

Epoch needs a mobile reload and 250m range.
That's it.
Everything else is fine.

>>534176872
Epoch is already fine, better to have the swedes focus on making the Quasar good.

The reason why this community is so vehemently against ramping up the difficulty is that we have an unusually high amount of day drinkers and 420 brain fog lovers.

>>534150091
They've gotta be testing a system to randomly generate MOs, right? No human would be this retarded, right???

>>534176872
We don't need yet another long range siege support. It has enough range to kill gunships and that's all that matters.

Let's say 32k people bring railcannon strike and dive on bots planets, immediately.
That would "only" take take 4-5 hours to complete.
Now let's account for the fact that it's not realistic and only half of the playerbase will take part in it, that's 8-10 hours.
Now let's be even more realistic.
This MO sucks, only 10% of the botdivers will take part in it: that's around 3-4 days.
So this MO has good odds of getting completed before the deadline and will be carried by plebbitors.

>>534175481
I want hologram the most

>>534177449
Long range weaponry and combat are precisely what this game needs. It's incredibly lame that all action gets compressed into a tiny sphere around players. Why is a sandbox game trying to be an arena shooter?

>>534177514
If anything, this MO will be completed by Chinese divers using 0.1 second cooldown railcannon strikes.

>>534177514
Too bad that ain't what's happening, because why would you use one of your 4 slots to throw a fucking 3-minute cooldown stratagem to kill a single trooper.

Maybe after this MO they'll see reason and cut railcannon's cooldown in half. It's a decent stratagem, just awfully balanced.

>>534177138
Playing d10 stoned is pretty much exclusively how I play, and I still want more

When they give us shit MO after shit MO, it means something big is coming and they're focusing on that... right?

>>534177846
But that would make OPS even more obsolete than it currently is, unless they give it a 30s cooldown or something

>>534177846
I remember when it was almost mandatory pre-60 day patch because 2 of them could effectively kill heavy bots or titans and that was considered good
>>534177921
Next big sotry arc starts when the xbox release happens

>>534177718
True.
>>534177816
Because plebbitors are braindead fools.

>>534171865
Whatever you're trying to convey in this image, it's not getting across. Learn to draw instead, and maybe you'll be able to draw an image with some intention.

>>534177138
i oppose ramping the difficulty because their flavor of upping the difficulty isn't to make the game harder but to make it more annoying to play

>>534177846
>instead, Arrowhead makes it target whatever enemy is closest to point of impact, regardless of size
>no other changes because "it does a lot of damage and targeting"

>>534178074
Casual gamers always resort to the "it's not harder, just more annoying" cope when any hint of difficulty increase is mentioned and their odds of dying increase as well.

>>534178074
I'd be in favour of them adding a lot more mission modifiers, and having some/most of them be on a per-mission/operation basis.
And allowing missions to have like up to six or something.

>>534178210
>the difficulty increases:
>everything one-shots you now
>if it doesn't one-shot you, it ragdolls you for 10 seconds to let the enemies one-shot you
>handicap your arsenal for no reason

>takes 6 RR shots to kill and respawns instantly

>>534146716
Hoping for halo but it's probably going to be gears of war. I always thought the COG soldiers looked cool.

>Arctic assault is literally based around winter warfare
>armor passive for THE WINTER WARFARE ARMOR doesn’t include ‘ignore the aids slow from blizzards’
You don’t hate Swiggers enough

>>534177816
It doesn't even target troopers unless there is nothing nearby.

>>534178434
>NOOO WHY CAN'T I JUST PLAY RETARDED AND WIN ANYWAY?!!? I HATE USING STRATEGICAL APPROACHES AND METHODICAL THINKING, EVERYTHING SHOULD JUST SIMPLY DIE WHEN I LOOK AT IT AND I SHOULD BE IMMORTAL

>>534178628
Yes, instead let's make you simply die when you get looked at and the enemies should be immortal.

>>534178361
They had more modifiers that made the game harder but people complained so they removed them. They also made the remaining environmental modifiers (meteor, volcano, tornados) much less dangerous

>>534178783
Playing as the underdog is way more interesting than playing a retarded powerfantasy for plebbitors.

>>534177514
I'm using the ORC while farming SC, it's bad, like 15 kills an hour, and that's assuming most actually hit troopers instead of a Commissar or Brawler

>>534178947
Name one difficult game like helldivers where you play as the underdog

>>534178828
Fire tornadoes actively followed you. That’s clearly BS when they shoulda just been random movement.

>gameguard downloaded 300 megabytes worth of something
uh oh

>>534178557
>ignore the aids slow from blizzards
That's called muscle enhancement

>>534179070
I remember so many people going "NUH UH, THEY'RE RANDOM, YOU'RE JUST SCHIZO!" when I mentioned that tornados use enemy pathfinding to follow you.
Meanwhile, I watched 12 fire tornados actively homing in on another player during a game, following them the entire time the effect was active. Or every tornado beelining for evac and staying directly on it because we were there.

>>534177619
>It's incredibly lame that all action gets compressed into a tiny sphere around players.
Recoilless Rifle, Commando, EAT, Spear, Quasar, Autocannon, AMR, Laser Cannon, WASP, Railgun
These are all long range support weapon options (minimum 200M). Are you really starving for choice?

>>534179050
Even fucking reddit rock galactic has challenging difficulties

>>534179886
>tfw the average "pro D10 crutchless chaddiver" would utterly shit themselves in fear from a single Elite Deep Dive

>>534179985
Control Group just for the warp pack so you can loot bunkers without the help of others.
Viper Commandos has crack stims and arguably the best Liberator variant
Everything else is just personal preference.

>>534179886
>the game where you can just complete elite deep dive solo by playing scout and jumping around with the grapple
Guess what DRG has that helldivers doesn't, hazard 5+ where the devs just went "oh you're complaining about difficulty? There, go create your own shit and stop complaining." because hazard 5 is still super easy.

>>534180203
b-but I just unlocked the grenade secondary. Seems to have so much utility for robots and bugs and all the objectives on the map

>>534178040
You remember wrong. Orbital failcannon has always been shit. It's only usable on D5 where the tanks are primary mission objectives and consoletards can't aim their throws.

>see a webm or pic of the old 10x crosshair
>immediately go into contemplating what the fuck they were thinking

>>534180340
You can argue for the nade pistol, but i use strats for holes/fabs and like the sidearm for combat.
Its preference.
Arctic assault has the tenderizer, my fav ar if you want a different suggestion

>>534180668
>Arctic Assault
its called Polar Patriots you dense baka.

>>534180668
>Arctic assault
This made me smile

>>534179985
Polar patriots for the best plasma weapon in the game.
The side arm is also pretty nice.

>>534180668
yeah snow strike is my favorite as well

>didnt give us railcannon strike for free
lmao swede niggas really thinkin im takin that shit

We both know that the average HD2 player would go catatonic when they realize they can't oneshot a Dreadnought with a default grenade launcher.

>>534182093

>>534181207
huaheuheuh maybe a nice stack of spread on Eruptor as another stealthy nerf to general effective range by Alexus
who knows maybe he'll put spread on the DMRs soon

>>534182306
The only risk is ammo starvation if your teammates trigger EVERY squid drop on cool down and do fuck all to help cleanup the mess

>>534182093
Except they nerfed the only difficult enemy on that front and it's a boring slog of nothing going on because you can kill the one enemy that can call in drops
The majority of time spent on squids is doing absolutely nothing but shooting random patrols, not to mention it doesn't have a mega structure or any somewhat difficult side objectives

I hope the railcannon objective is "lol ur supposed to fail" so they will have an in universe explaination to justify buffing the railcannon.

>>534182593
I usually get mates thatstock me up via supply pack. Also you can save a great deal of ammo by putting cc items in your other slots.

>>534181965
Because it has forced invulnerability phases. Oh and also there's no random hordes when you fight it because it's a boss fight.
If AH was in charge of DRG, the dreadnought boss fight would have an endless horde for as long as the boss is alive, it would shit out rockpox everywhere and at the halfway point, you'd have an omen modular exterminator pop out of nowhere.

>halfway through the MO minor order pops up negating the kill requirement
wooow

>>534182093
>ayckshully squids aren’t difficult, they’re just annoying
>*proceeds to waste all the reinforcements while complaining*

Reminder that this game is meant for casuals
Reminder that it is supposed to be easy

If you want a "hard" horde shooter go play some autistic chink shoot em up game

>>534182918
you cannot name a reason not to make challenge an option so you lose the argument

>>534180668
Cold Commandos also has the Purifier, which is extremely strong

is killing chaff with the railcannon a worse objective than the leviathan kill quota?

>>534182093
Squids have a lot of instant death shit. Harvestor beams and jetpack overseers will randomly roll perfect accuracy and near instantly kill you.
Harvestor zaps are not telegraphed and are usually an instant death if not wearing shock armor.
If a staff overseer melees you, chances are you will be combo'd out and killed.
Sometimes fleshmobs ragdoll you in such a way the fleshmob can kill you in one combo.
Tesla towers will zap you if you round a corner and not know it's there.
Stingrays sometimes don't have their strafe tracer appear and will kill you with little warning besides a sound que.

Chiller Killers just seemed like a waste to me

Here's how to reform the retarded galactic war. Simple solution.
>scrap personal orders and replace them with five bonus objectives related to the current major order
>simple objectives such as destroy 5 science stations in sector X, ride in an FRV for n meters on planet Y, recover 20 super samples + kill 800 enemy units on planet Z
>these would give all MO divers a handful of additional common goals to communicate and cooperate for (imagine that)
>each solved bonus objective rewards 10-20 super credits on MO completion
The community would be more united in that old and new divers wouldn't just share a location on the map but actively group up to secure their bonus. I think this concept is pretty good aside from the obvious flaw that snoy and/or shams would be against the payouts.

>>534182093
they're buggy and alot of the units dont have good hit feedback, chaff bugs scream in terror, chaff bots sound like they're getting put into a garbage disposal, voteless get an unsatisfying flesh noise and fall over
they're genuinely a good faction and are fun to fight but they need more blood and guts spewing out from them as i shoot them

>>534183991
I don't remember. I basically skipped this past order. But now that I think of it I would've noticed if they slipped in a different MO, so I guess it shouldn't count for stats.

Servants of Freedom is your golden goose of overpowered items.
Urban Legends is more modest but has one really powerful item, the anti-tank emplacement, a stratagem that lets one diver waste an entire map if deployed well. You should also get Freedom's Flame for the inflammable armor perk because we semi regularly encounter enemies with fire-based weaponry as well as planets with ignited atmospheres. Also Chemical Agents has the most powerful grenade in the game BUT before you even touch any more premium warbonds I want you to unlock your 10-page Helldivers Mobilize warbond because it has nearly all of the decent boosters which you absolutely should have available.

Huh, I never gave it too much thought but Boreal Battalion is definitely one of the best warbonds. Too bad the armor passives are recycled and the booster is shit.
>>534184815
>for the inflammable armor perk because we semi regularly encounter enemies with fire-based weaponry
The inflammable armor is pretty much a requirement for using the Dickle so I'd get that before Servants of Freedom. It also has the Cookout and Torcher, both of which are very strong vs bugs.

Yeah, but it is a bit retarded to spend 250 SC for a single piece of armor, when for 700 you can have 1 light + 1 medium sets with the same passive, 2 primary weapons and 1 secondary.

Where's the new (if any) warbonds announcement? Is it really still 3 days away.

Twice in a row now we've had stratagem weapons in warbonds that literally didn't work as intended...

>>534195184
odst warbond

>>534194846
Most SC farms gets like 300ish SC/hour, it's not that bad of a deal when the warbond mostly sucks/stuff you can live without anyway.

>de-escalator went from A tier to complete garbage in one update

>>534195184

Nah, easily the nicest player base on earth, and that’s for pve games, before you even get to pvp or MMO’s

>>534195591
>the warbond mostly sucks
It's great for bugs and decent for squids. Cookout is one of the best weapons against the predditor strain. It has good armors and weapons which makes it better than most warbonds, the only thing in it that sucks is the booster.
I guess the Salamander armor is pretty good against fire bots but I'd put that pretty low on my list of priorities if I were a new player.

>>534146969

>>534169147
Because there is no front line. Helldivers drop behind enemy lines, of course you’re surrounded.

>>534196218
You can take the Punisher and it would play pretty much the same as the Cookout on either Predditor or Squids.
The Crisper while good, most fags would pass up over the grenade pistol, but if you care to take the GL instead of being an RRtard I suppose it is useful.
The Torcher on the other hand is very meh as primaries go.
Also Salamander+DE Sickle is pretty good for going prone and pretending you're shooting an MG with.

>>534196624
And when you completely clear out the enemy lines and blow up their entire reinforcement capacities, does it also makes sense for the enemy spawns to be doubled/tripled? Because that's how it used to work before the devs finally fixed the patrols.

>>534196803
Making the Torcher and Crisper both just stat variants of the flamethrower was a mistake, I'll be honest.
I fucking wish they at least made the Torcher significantly different. Like shooting balls of napalm or flame jets, or even modifying it in bigger ways than just "magazine size".

emancipator is ok, there are more economical slot uses but it's alright
epoch is strictly not as cool as quasar, EAT, and commando imo

>>534197676
The increased armor rating effectively increases your durability against other damage so you don't die from a stray enemy shot while under 30% HP.

I'm glad youtubers can make daily slop videos with all of the frequent content updates we get!

>>534197593
I'd use the Eruptor with something like the MMG/HMG (with fortified armor) or LC, but Epoch isn't a bad choice. Warrant is inferior to the Verdict. Adreno armor is pretty shit. Emancipator is good but I think something like strafing run would be a more useful choice.
All in all 6/10 it's ok.

>So you'd rather Sony have pulled the plug?
I would, personally. I spent $70 on the game, but enjoyed it only up until shortly after the tencent acquisition and the pivot toward the game being turned into a vessel to dragnet the maximum number of hypercasuals into a microtransaction platform.

If it stopped existing tomorrow, it would benefit me by freeing up space in the market for similar, better games.

One of my biggest gripes about bugs or bots is how 95% of the time they have the worst aim and seem to be actively trying to not hit you but then they land 3-5 shots or a rocket with aimbot accuracy, especially if you're using cover.

Yes, because we're behind enemy lines and we've just painted a big target on our approximate location by blowing up a lot of shit. Go look up the entire recorded history of paratrooper operations.

>>534204586
What if I swapped the warrant for the talon or dagger?

How would you make the illuminate an itneresting faction?
I think the worst part is how the chaff and the dangerous overseers are so similar. So I'd introduce the floating chair guys from HD1 (bigger targets), the cloaked melee guys (who could use the voteless as cover) and maybe another form of the harvester, like a less tall but wider one.

I just want an MO where they tell us "we are developing xyz stratagem technology on this planet, hold it against the deplorable motherfuckers trying to stop us, meanwhile we also need x amount of samples from ABC sector on the other side of the galaxy & the brains of whatever alien unit to develop this other stratagem so go kill a billion of them.

I think squids are great right now, their meta is fresh compared to every other faction. Maybe make them the faction you want to melee too.

>>534205431
Then you get a 1 or 2/10 : needs more lasers

Having all laser weapons in all available slots (Primary, Secondary, Support, Backpack, Orbital, Turret, is 6/10. Then you get a bonus point for every Beam Primary/Secondary/Support. No one can get a full 10 out of 10 till we get a laser throwable

Mystics that do weird shit, levitate, & weild a staff

I'd introduce specialist units like the bots & bugs have. Like unique suicide bomber voteless & fleshblobs as well as "elite guard" Overseers with fancy armor & a different kit.

last I checked, the MO was estimated to finish at around 1% so probably

>>534206249

>>534208218
What's the use case of this, exactly?

If they get rid of the warp pack stationary reload bug I will burn down Sweden

>>534208586
It's more accurate than guiding the missile and you can keep moving so a robot emplacement or whatever doesn't shoot you,

>>534208218
Can you use this to fire around corners if the angle is large enough?

>>534205620
They’re great and I love them. The current illuminate seek to be ironically based off helldivers: ei expendable terrorists squads meant to weaken but equipped with the hope they totally destroy and defeat the enemy anyway.
So I’d add more terror units
>jetpack voteless with grenade launchers: some are plasma, others are poison gas that turn dead divers into voteless, and stim the fuck out of regular voteless

>>534208218
This seems like sloppy programming (what a shocker!) where the last known aimpoint is not cleared and remains when you stop ADSing with the laser pointer.

How many boxes of ammo would you need to receive from a hypothetical "Ammo supply backpack" stratagem for you to take it over the regular Supply Backpack stratagem?

>>534209723
Infinity. Ammo ain't worth shit if i don't have stims to still be alive to use it.

>>534208218
Does it work for moving targets? Say I laser pointed a Hulk's face and he moves, will the rocket go to his previous position or will it go for its face?

>>534209723
if one tap gave me full restock I'd take it, that or just give me bonus ammo and grenade storage I'd take it.

Honestly I'd just take a grenade bandolier, and or something that reloaded ammo for guns I don't have equipped. (This applying to a support weapon would be pretty big too)

>>534209723
I would want that shit to belt feed into my HMG to give me an infinite clip
Stims and nades are too useful to turn down

>>534209432
the only video game i can think of that actually has clean code is doom 3

>>534209723
Better be boxes that give a full refill for all weapons, since you're losing out on stims AND grenades.

>>534209723
passive autoloader exoskeleton with several full reloads worth of ammo.

>>534174968
a funny MO would've been 2.5m 500kg kills with a free 500kg slot so you could double up, or 4.5m napalm/380 kills low cooldowns. This is just dogshit

>>534174968

People care too much about MOs

>talon secondary

Which primary?

>>534209723
Gimme a High Penetration Ammunition Backpack. Only refills your ammo supplies, but specifically gives primaries upgraded ammo that offers an additional level of AP.

>>534210523
anything that clicks and keeps shit back.
You could do punisher, I run constitution n it fits nicely.

>>534209723
Depends on cooldown and how it interacts with superior packing methodology. Otherwise, a resupply crate is worth 2 ammo crates on top of the grenade and stim uses it provides.
Ironically, I think an ammo backpack would need to increase MAXIMUM ammo the way siege ready does, and instantly provide the difference in the new top end.
Thats just my take

>Experimental Stims
>Stim Pistol
>Medic Armor
It's just so fun, even if it isn't necessarily optimal.

>>534210523
Boogs punisher
Squids breaker or libpen if you want to headshot oversaars

Sorry, anon. Headshots and high accuracy in general makes the game too easy for me, so I've resorted to the follow heuristic whenever I engage in combat, in an effort to make my experience more engaging.

>I can only fire on an enemy's Right Foot and If they have multiple right feet, I must target the Rightmost Foot furthest from me
>If any one of my third shots hits an enemy, I must reload, automatically discarding the remainder of my ammo

>"it's just a prank, bro!"
Joel is the funniest of fun guys!

More seriously, tho. The MOs are supposed to do a lot of heavy lifting to keep player retention. If you make it impossible for small teams to feel like they are contributing (completing a full d10 operation to get 0.000125% contribution) Make it impossible for large blobs of playes to feel like they are controbuting (Needing the entire playerbase in one location to keep up with the decay rate) and then make it so any victory feels like a handout (okay, you can't complete it, let me lower the target), you will start doing the opposite of player retention.

I'd go with eruptor for fabs/bug holes and groups of enemies

I literally only like fighting Bugs. I genuinely don't receive any satisfaction from killing Bots or Squids, just relief.

>>534214414
Even the bugs suffer from the same ingrained desire to slap big robutt butt, and I can't really blame them

>>534214609
>eck

so with a hovering playerbase of ~30,000 that are actually willing to go to the front, every helldiver would have to orbital railcannon to death about 80~ troopers give or take to do their part. Assuming no multi collateral kills, that would take every player about 4 hours of farming Trivials to have officially done their part, also assuming they can always find a trooper within the three minute cooldown and hit said trooper rather than be japed in some way.

why don't swiggers think about the things they do?

>>534212415
Epoch is pretty good and fun though

>>534215324
They think demo force balances against damage. They are just...

>bots command bunker d10

>manage to somehow not die and take out the striders, then get to work on the bunkers
>die 9 times in the process
>every single fucking death is me getting ragdolled by some fucking bunker cannon or some fucking war strider or some other bullshit into barbed wire which wipes my entire health bar before I get up, or into a mine, or just endless knockdowns until I die because I can't use a stim in time
Holy fuck I'm livid. I know I'm not good at the game but every single death this mission was horseshit.

Most people on this thread don't understand "whoah, this felt like shit" and just assume "skill issue" because "this game is too easy and I never die"

it is kinda funny tho

>>534216512
Most deaths in this game do not feel earned. War striders are a dogshit enemy but getting btfo by bunker turrets is on you, you should have something to deal with them.

>>534214414
How about a lone alpha warrior despite them being summoned in packs of 3 and no alpha commander around

>>534216512
I just played a game with randos and I somehow locked in and spent the entire game pulling off the most insane and accurate long distance RR shots to save teammates' asses from endless Factory Striders and consistently headshot Devastators and Hulks with my Liberator and Senator and then at the very end my teammate starts shittalking and lecturing me for using light pen because I couldn't save him from a Heavy Devastator since I didn't have an angle on his head and he was too retarded to kill it himself.
Nearly everything was yellow on my card at the end as well and he had 11 fucking deaths, and he was still lecturing me and even started explaining the penetration mechanics to me. I don't know why that got under my skin so bad, but I just left.

>>534171748

I'm usually good with my sentries, but sometimes you misread the situation, sometimes the damn thing bounces and sometimes shit gets hot and sentries get tossed wherever they get tossed, therefore if my sentry ever becomes a danger or injures never hesitate to destroy it.

I remember we were heading towards evac once and I made the mistake of placing the sentry down ahead of us at the choke point heading up to evac. In most situations this would have been ideal. The gun would have been in a safe position incapable of harming us and covered our flank.

Unfortunately I didn't anticipate that the bugs would be waiting for us at the top of the hill at evac and that the gatling sentry would delete most us when our progress was blocked by a group of hiveguards coming down the path towards us and we were caught in between the sentry I prematurely called own ahead of us rather than behind us, and two groups of bugs.

I blew that sentry up myself out of shame when I was reinforced. Good times.
