>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.

too bad both have been rendered shit tier by the war strider

That'll be 14.000 SC, including another 300 SC for the Warrant, baby!
You want some Liberty Fries with that?!

UH OH

>>536097920
>heh but is YOUR pc better than a console?
Yes. it is, and it will still be better than the next 4 generations of consoles that get shitted out for 800$ each.

>>536098146
AC does well against warstriders though, 100 durable rating pays for itself

>>536097831

which is more than any single console could ever hope to offer.

>>536098152
thank goodness they're all crutches or shit

That reminds me, like 2 weeks ago I started to get shader errors, the purple question marks, you know the ones. So I uninstalled the game, cleared my shader, and then reinstalled.

I was confused because I knew the filesize was 130gb but redownloading the game was only like 30gb. So I guess you download all the assets, and then when they deploy they just duplicate themselves.

This means that there is no practical benefit to optimizing the final file size because the main incentive for companies to do that is to decrease the overhead on hosting the download files. Since in this case the download size is optimized, they'll never do anything.

>>536098389

Is it true that automatons in cyberstan are smug anime catgirls with large breasts

>>536099708
no
their breasts are tiny
only the frontline models get huge bazoongas

>>536099708
The automatons have eliminated inequality by making all of their denizens equally flat. It's simply the pursuit of justice.

Pick a new song.

>>536099708
No.
What is true however is that all bots are the basic trooper wearing increasingly heavy exo-suits

>>536099708
the society of modern Cyberstan functions on an ideology called absolute equality
all biological aspects of Cyberstani existence have been outright removed where possible and minimized otherwise for this purpose
in other words bots do in fact not go wild, their entire mode of being is opposed to things such as sex
they are cybernetic volcels though they might secretly draw pleasure from castrating you for being coombrained

>>536100912
TRVKE

>>536100784
I appreciate you

I don't farm SC, I let based chinaman drop me thousands of SC for free

>>536101241
cheating in SC is less brown than farming for it.

>>536101319
I also use the arrow mod

I don't know about anyone else, but it's my woke chud opinion that gamechanging items should be free, and only cosmetics should be paid.

None should be paid. We already bought the game.

>>536101602
That's how it should be
Too bad HD2 has only gotten worse with that and new stratagems are now exclusively given to the players in 10 dollar battlepasses

>>536101602
>>536101712
it's almost like there's a way to get them that doesn't require money...

>>536101602
I'm fine with it as long as the fake currency is easy to get for free.

>>536101834
Playing the game.
As opposed to grinding credits.
Play the game and get them naturally.
You should be playing the game for fun, not to grind currency. A game that is played for rewards instead of the game being the reward itself is a failed game.

>>536101834
Yea, yeah, the some old tired cope every totally-not-p2w game uses: It's not p2w because you can grind for six million hours to unlock it for (((free)))

>>536101790

>>536101868
>>536101984
>>536102043
I can't wait for new attachments, vehicles, planets, and mission types to be locked behind warbonds in a year's time, while cucks continue to say "B-but you can grind for SC! It's actually free!"

>>536101984
and scrapping all points of interest in standard full-map missions isn't even that bad for super credit rewards so long as you realize that you don't need to buy all 15500 super credits worth of warbonds right now and can progress at your own pace.

/hdg/ when you tell them they need to play the game...

>>536102170
aight nigga
you gotta pay real money for SC now.
what? you said you dont want to grind for SC, so we removed the option to grind SC.

>>536101984
Maybe the game shouldn't punish my SC income when playing on D10

>>536102170
let's talk about shit that actually exists, alright?

>>536101984
>Playing the game.
this shit got way too boring and soulless for me to play it regularly anymore

>>536102170
Damn, that strawman is pretty spooky

NIggas here will buy the Deep Gloom Diving Pass to let you play on new super gloom planets for 72hours for only 10 bucks and call everyone who refuses to do the same brown

Great post

>>536102241
>>536102351
>>536102470
You faggots also said they'll never add stratagems to warbonds, weapons to the Super Store, and that we'll get a free warbond any day now, yet look at where we are now.

>>536102580
>slippery slope
We went from "stratagems will not be part of warbonds" to "new stratagems come exclusively in warbonds"

>>536102697
I never said any of that, actually.

>>536102697
What are you gonna do about it?

Haven't played since the Super Earth event finished, Force of Law and Control Group any good or are they shit?

Oh no, weapons on the super store, how will I ever manage without-
>checks
-a significantly downgraded version of the Verdict.

>>536102995
Force of Law is dogshit
Control group has one excellent item in the warp pack and a whole bunch of shit

>>536102995
Control group is quite good and fun, force of law is fine but extremely skippable.

>Joel having a shitfit again and forcing us to lose all our progress
Yeah.... Im just gonna play something else.

>>536102995
Force of Law got nothing noteworthy
Control Group got a no-recoil Liberator that can blow its load at once, the Variable. Other than that, the Warp Pack lets you jump into bunkers so it makes SC farming easier. Oh, and its actually a decent mobility option.

>>536101319
cheating is brown behavior

>>536102995
>Force of law
awful, a stun-centric warbond in a game where time-to-stun was recently stealth nerfed to be slower than time-to-kill. The last-page stratagem with a 110 medal cost is basically a guard dog that specializes in friendly fire
>Control Group
Warp pack gives you enough mobility to survive ridiculous nonsense in scout armor and also lets you loot bunkers solo.
Laser Sentry is theoretically good but in practice just bad
Epoch is divisive, spread so bad you're basically gambling.

>>536103263
Wait, come back! There will another triple invasion by the squids tomorrow!

why do you constantly project emotions onto this "Joel" person

>>536102996
W-what about the significantly downgraded version of the stun lance?

>>536103392

>Force of Law sucks
That's a shame, I really like the way the Pacifier looks aesthetically.

>>536103263
I know what you could play with.
FELLAS!
How about we introduce that robutt and her DSS (Dick-Stimulation Socket) to our Liberators? How 'bout that, eh?

>>536102043
warbonds are like 1000 sc
every mission has a bunch of PoIs, each with 10 or 100 sc
you get sc for doing other shit
realistically, you can get a warbond every couple days, less if you find a buddy to farm with

>>536103392
Epoch is bad for a ton of reasons, that its stuck with the spread of the old Reprimand even after the buff is probably the least of them

I for one love that we keep getting light pen weapons so you shitters never get to use a new gun again

>>536103547
I don't hate the pacifier, AP3 gives it a wide application but I think there's no situation where I wouldn't just rather take the penetrator.

That's significant

>>536102580
slippery slope has never been a fallacy

>>536103614

If you mean every 48 hours of game time sure, you are not finding 1000 SC in 2 regular days of playing unless you're farming. Especially if you play on a real difficulty.

don't worry, we're rapidly approaching implosion

I was expecting they might release a trailer for this supposed other warbond today. Do you think they might do it on Saturday at that event?

bros...i think the breaker spray n pray is kinda fun.
theres some joy to be had in mindlessly blasting into terminid hordes and not having to aim at all.

>>536109382
They might do it late in the afternoon, they did that for...freedoms flame I think.
I think they'll announce something else on Saturday

speaking of shotguns, is the punisher still the illuminate fudgepacker?

>>536109382
I'm with the anon that said it'll be revealed the week after the ODST warbond is launched so that they catch the new xbox audience's attention (and also blindside those that already spent their warbond token)

seems like nobody brings the scythe, dagger, or either of the sickles, even on cold planet missions. these guns must really suck

>>536109635
Nah, they're just boring or tedius to use.

>>536109585
Token doesn't work on the ODST stuff so I assume you mean latelets still playing warbond catch-up.

Can someone tell me why we keep putting critical infrastructure like the car factory on frontline planets?

For the first time ever I am playing a "Sabotage Supply Bases" mission. Apparently they are playable on D10 now.

>>536109635
The dickle is really fun especially if you have a healslut on you

>>536109635
scythe has always been bad, dagger is redundant and mogged by every other handgun, sickle is a liberator reskin, dickle is boring metafaggotry
superearth, give me my trident and tanto back

>>536109803
in this situation I am assuming that the xbox players would log in, spend their token on democratic detonations, work towards getting the ODST warbond and then realize the hot new warbond that contains [Thing] is about to come out. But you're right, it makes no material difference what they spend their token on unless the new one is somehow really good.

>>536109635
>Scythe
Niche weapon that falls apart quickly the moment you have to fight 3 zerkers at dicksucking range. If you can aim at heads with the Scythe, you can aim at heads with every other weapons.
>Dagger
Ok sidearm, but everything else kills better. Scythe but pocket-sized.
>Sickles
Normal sickle is fine for close engagements, accuracy takes a nosedive after a bit. Requires the user to forsake the mentality of "I must NEVER overheat the sickle" and actually do it, because overheating into reloading is faster than letting it cool down completely or a manual reload. But if that's the case, why not use a ballistic weapon?
>DE Sickle
I dont like it, some anons swear by it, I dont.

All opinions stated are for bots only. Sickle works on squids for blasting voteless swarms and some, but scythe or dagger are very bad options there.

Will Xbox dudes get the ODST bond bundled with the game or does AH expect them to shill out 15 bucks?

Justice's warbond will truly be legendary.

>>536110342
they told you to pay 2000 SC for the killzone shit, ask you to pay extra for one gun and the most important thing of all - stratagem hero, put stratagems into paid warbonds and havent given us any free shit in quite a while
anon, you gotta think like a filthy jew. of course they're gonna make them shill out 16 bucks.

>>536097523
Do NOT pet the fembugs. Worst mistake of my life.

Botsisters, we gotta git to it!

>>536110496
It's in the name. LEGENDARY warbond. So ofc it's gonna cost more, and it's only 17 bucks. You have 18 bucks to spare, right? You're not poor, are you?

>>536110496
You received war striders and gazers free of charge, say thank you or face the wall.

>>536110093
how about DE on bug front?

>>536110404
>they make a warbond around bringing back HD1 weapons
>it will be a 15 dollar legendary warbond because it's a collab with HD1

>>536110940
On paper, you get a stalwart that turns into med pen then heavy pen the longer you fire it, at the cost of eating through your stims.
So unless you can build around that, I dont recommend using the DE Sickle on bugs.
Theres probably some other anons that can make it work just fine, I'm not one of them, I use shit that I tried, tested, and trust to give me reliable results.

Is this the Halo thread?

Dang, so my idea of just a few hundred helldivers being able to liberate these very low resistance squid planets is impossible? And in fact this plan becomes even more impossible the more players there are? Very counter-intuitive, but I shouldn't be surprised with Swedes at the helm.
Actually it's almost genius, when you think about it. Joel's railroad is self-reinforcing. The more players, the less power they individually have. You WILL follow the DSS blob because it's the only way for your efforts to make any progress.

We unironically need a SEAF deployment mechanic for the Galactic war. Cuts off enemy resistance to 0% and slowly takes the planet on its own.

The Jackhammer is such a logical addition to the Helldiver arsenal because it could fulfill a niche that we currently lack. Spartan Laser being iconic and all would be too similar to the Quasar Cannon, one of the most used support stratagems in the game.
That said the Swedes claim that there's nothing else coming out on the super store additional to what we already know so I wouldn't trust random discord screenshots or whatever.

>>536124419
How come nerftrannies aren't gone yet? Why do they hold onto this game so much?
I was about to post this but I just realized, this game is a containment. If they left, they'd probably flood my other coopg games and start demanding nerfs for everything.

>>536124419
AT has more than enough spotlight
I also can't think of a way to balance the thing without powercreeping the existing backpackless AT weapons

Man this nigger must've lost a friend over halo with how constant the sperging is

>>536124419
Whats the point of another rocket launcher though?
We got AT covered from heads to toes, chaff is cleared by the airburst
I'm CURIOUS on what NEW AND EXCITING weapon we could get if we get yet another rocket launcher.
I'm not against it, I'm only against adding more clutter bullshit that doesnt do anything better than the options we already have now.

Lobby doko
Or do I need to host again

>>536124919
They'd just double down on its splash damage and not use the lock on function. Its not like they havent reworked a weapon for balance before, the WASPs artillery has less pen than the lock on...despite using the same missles

>still no support shotgun

I will say rockets are nice because they pair with a lot of primaries easily. I hope we never get another stalwart esque gun that's just anti chaff.

>>536124419
wait, they are going to add another rocket launcher? source?

>>536124572
I just don’t why we can’t higher difficulty levels, first game had 15, which was retarded since 11 were pretty much filler but still. Even the devs for games like space marine 2 are more competent and are just making the highest difficultly harder when the win rate gets too high on it. Helldivers really does feel like a lot of peoples first game

I haven't played in weeks and you know what i've been fine

Whats the point of another liberator though?
We got light pen covered from heads to toes
I'm CURIOUS on what NEW AND EXCITING weapon we could get if we get yet another liberator.

>>536125334
The core of the game is being a casual horde shooter, until the factions get new tiers of enemies the only way to add "difficulty" is just spawning more shit

I have zero clue about Halo, but surely it has more interesting weapons than
>weird looking AR
>generic shotgun
>generic SMG
>generic pistol
right?

>>536127358
Based on my limited knowledge, they could offer reskinned quazar cannon or reskinned commando.
Or at least I think the spartan laser is supposed to work sorta like quazar.

>>536127358
Halo is relatively grounded by sci-fi standards, all the "weird" guns are of alien origin and wouldn't fit HD2 (which is even more grounded to the point of being a quasi-milsim).

>>536127358
the better halo weapons wouldn't really work here. Needler's most favorite weapons include the Needler, which is an alien weapon that fires slow moving but tracking needles that explode when enough of them hit a target, the plasma grenade which is just what we call thermite, the spartan laser which is just what we call a quasar cannon, and the SPNKR which is just a standard side-loading rocket launcher.

>>536127358
Unless you count the Covenant, the Brutes, or the weird prometheans, the majority of the weapons are
>generic pistol
>generic SMG
>generic shotgun
>generic AR
>generic DMR
>generic Battle-Rifle
>generic machine-gun
>generic HMG
>rocket-launcher is a 2-shot rocket launcher
>generic sniper rifle
>grenade launcher has a motion-sensor tracking module and remote-detonation (Halo 4)
The UNSC is a very generic sci-fi human faction that doesnt take any fancy designs for the army or the navy. Its built to kill shit. It does that.

>>536127358
the alien weapons have all the futuristic plasma stuff, human weapons are simple variations of modern guns so you can just grab them and go

>>536127972
And another thing.
The AR looks weird because it was made for Spartans, which are 8-foot tall super soldiers.
So, a normal human using it, does look weird.

>>536128386
Really? But next to every UNSC soldier carries the very same AR.

>>536128386
Helldivers are also huge superhumans, so maybe the AR will look okay on them

>>536128621
>6 vs 5'11

>>536128621

>havent played in like 4 months

>>536128386

This isn't true, the AR is standard issue and predates the existence of Spartans. Only the spartan laser was design specifically for them

The problem is that this game's spawn mechanics suck. There can only be 1 enemy drop in one place at a time. Know what will happen when the game gets "too hard"? The meta will become to have 1 guy drive his FRV to the edge of the map, alert a bug breach, and then kite them or just drive away while the rest of the players do the objectives. Or even better, everyone will just bring RRs, ONBs and sentries. The amount of nerfing required to not trivialize this game is unreasonable and immense and would be a PR disaster. Come up with a solution now

You never see arguments for nerfs either. Because they know they'd get shit on outside their discord hug box.

>>536133985
Because devs havent figured out balanced difficulty and player agency yet. The reason bots cant hit you most of the time is because if they did, you would instantaneously die because you have so little health and they do so much damage

>>536134845
Bots got buffed with war striders, mini turret buff, and the ultimatum nerf honestly.
The ammo eco for them is a lot tighter and you honestly want an AP4 and a rocket guy sticking together now. It's a nice change of pace.
Pushing jammers is pretty brutal, and the mega is an actual daunting siege if you're not careful.

>>536132084
>Come up with a solution now
Two ways I like to approach this problem

1. Increase enemy patrol spawns. As the game is already it is a noticeable change when patrols start spawning two at once, doubling the enemy count and variety since they can spawn different types of patrols as well. That and generally buff certain patrol types, single BT as a patrol is no longer threatening so make it spawn two at least. Same goes for Impaler patrols, solo Tank patrols, etc. You can rationalize this in-game with hive world/machine world exclusive difficulty or by just adding up to D15. You get to keep your buffed weapons but now you really have to use that power.

2. Promote chaff. A big issue with higher difficulties, especially bugs, is that a certain amount of enemies just cannot be threatening. Scavengers, Warriors, Troopers, Brawlers, and so on only exist to force you to spend some time and ammo on them and then move on.
Instead lets promote the chaff into larger units so they are replaced with actually dangerous variants/increase the average threat level of the enemy forces. Scavengers become Warriors, Pouncers become Hunters, Bile Spitters become Nursing/Bile Spewers, Warriors become Hive Guards, Hive Guards become Alpha Commanders (maybe a sterile variant so they don't spawn a billion Alpha Warriors), Brawlers become Berserkers, Maruaders/MG Raiders/Troopers become Heavy Devs, Rocket Raiders become Rocket Devs. This would only apply to patrols so nests don't churn out a dozen Alpha Commanders.

I prefer #2 since I think just increasing spawns broadly would force a rocket heavy meta since the volume of heavies per match is increased drastically (at least to the levels people want for the game to be more difficult). This change, I think, would force people to take chaff more seriously while leaving heavies as a less common but dangerous threat. I think the root issue is with the chaff since if they aren't a threat heavies can't punish you for getting overrun.

>>536135223
I think they figured it out perfectly, people just can't come to terms with the fact that this is a video game.
I'd say the game punishing you with 4 oopsie stims is in a good place, and a lot of enemies will chip your health forcing stim pops.

>>536111056
Let’s hope to god they bring back the music for the factions cause I honestly think the current battle themes suck dick.

>>536135602
>more dev spam
No thank you I like my light pen viable

>>536132084
Honestly Id just nerf gas a little, nerf ammo on some support weapons, tune down a lot of greens across the board, bump up reds in power and call it a day.

If I could I'd focus more on staggering calls. That was a neat mechanic they added you never see talked about. How like enemies can do mini calls and save calls for a minute later. That fucks up the barrage junkies a bunch.

>>536136054
Light pen weapons are the most efficient ammo:dead devs ratio what the fuck are you on about or are you a shitter?

>>536135384
>war strider
they're badly designed but not Fleshmob tier and they become slightly less threatening when you get below the max depression of their canons

>Make it spawn two [Bile Titans] at least
>Promote chaff
The real threat of the game is "chaff", not big targets. Bitans are slow, few and get one-shot and then are gone for the next few minutes probably. Predators actually reinforced staying together perfectly. They are way faster than you, flank you and come in numbers. Even with a shotgun and/or guard dog you still could easily get raped by pedo stalkers while alone if you let your guard down and your dog was busy reloading or simply "malfunctioned". Problem is, they render most guns redundant. But yes, this idea makes sense. Make it so that such dangerous enemy spawns near lone wolves.

I need warbonds.. I'm rich

>>536137334

Even with the DSS, botniggers are failing their gambit. Its so damn funny watching botniggers fail at literally everything they try to do. I would be EMBARRASSED to admit to being a bot main.

>>536136312
>When? If anything they got a slight nerf
Nerf got reverted (might have been reverted again though)

>>536138219
Bugniggers decrease our effective liberation by existing.

I can see the design philosophy behind Bots, it's really good, it's just a shame nobody at AH is competent enough to actually make them play as designed.

The idea was a sort of realistic military shooter, where whoever shot first would be at an intrinsic advantage, at least at first. You were meant to suppress them back, use smokes and shit, fight over who has fire superiority.
Bots have a whole suppression mechanic exclusive to them.
I feel like I'm the only one who knows about and plans around it.

>>536138834
I bring EATs to every bot dive now. The risk of getting a war strider seed is too high to not bring AT.

>>536139176
Is the War Strider the bot Bile Spewer?

>>536138834
thermite

>>536138778
Launch bots also all had weakpoints that could be exploited by a primary. Hulk heatsinks, Tank heatsinks if you had a plasma weapon, and this philosophy continued until the warstrider which is literally ap4 all around, and ap4 weapons take such a long time to kill one that you're better off using dedicated AT.

>>536138834
Since you more or less need to bring the Supply Pack if you're running railgun, I just bring thermites to deal with War/Factory Striders if the 500kg isn't available.

>>536138003
>The real threat of the game is "chaff", not big targets.
I agree, the issue I take is that there are ways to easily trivialize chaff. Even Predator strain gets quickly neutralized by an MG Sentry.
There would still be plenty of ways to quickly kill large hordes, 500kg, ABRL, Napalm, Sentries, etc, but I want the remaining chaff to be more dangerous and take more resources to put pressure on divers. Hell most pubs and even some /hdg/ lobbies only call down resupply two or three times.
I also think buffing chaff increases the threat of heavies since most of the time chaff can be ignored while you focus on a Charger or Hulk. I want more opportunities for divers to get overrun or flushed out.

>>536140327
No bro, it's totally not shit game design, it's a satire on uhhh....American imperialism...and fascism, maybe....

>>536140438
More enemies is something that would easily help with this but unfortunately the game's coded like shit and more enemies would make it run like POO

>>536139761
In the way that it's a common enemy that significantly changes your loadout choices by merely existing. Expendable med+ pen is basically mandatory to take against bugs just so you can kill Bile Spewers if they appear whereas without them, you'd only really need light pen against everything and AT against Bile Titans/Chargers. Likewise, the War Strider forces you to take expendable heavy+ pen on bots so you can deal with them if they appear whereas without them, you'd only need med pen against everything (Tank and Turret heatsinks more than anything) and AT against Turrets or Tanks you aren't in a position flank/Hulks/Factory Striders.

>>536140232
Hrnghh... Bratty bugdiver needs correction...

>>536140521
Yeah, unfortunately adding enemies breaks game while suggesting new enemy types is an effort in futility.
Changing what spawns seems reasonable enough for this god forsaken company considering how little work they do.

Because everyone loves loadout check enemies

Lots of things that could be done. Make it so that stalkers spawn near lone wolves, decrease reinforcements is another no-brainer because 20 is legitimately too many.

>>536141078
All the original devs left, the game is currently being held together by a skeleton crew and off-sourced indians

>>536141078
>multiple themes for every faction depending on the difficulty
it was the same song but with different levels of instrumentation, same as hd2
>the higher the difficulty the more intense the theme gets
same as hd2, but it's not as pronounced because it's based on enemies rather than difficulty

>>536140879
I think giving chaff some more unique behaviors and abilities would go a long way. Or all units, really. Like for bugs, only the hopping cunts try to flank, and only bot troopers will throw grenades to flush you out. Alpha commanders should be cowards who shit warriors and run away but their AI is broken.
If every chaff unit had some unique behavior or ability, more difficulty could be added in a very organic way.

There should be different types of factory stridera that spawn different units

Turrets being so trigger happy is most likely a happy accident of saving AI resources and also making them more dangerous to rely on.

>>536142058
Helldivers are incredibly squishy compared to how hard hitting our weaponry is. Even enemy weaponry kills Helldivers pretty fucking fast but it needs to actually hit - this is why Automatons or Illuminate can sometimes delete you instantly and why shitters think Predators are hard. You just kind of not notice because enemy accuracy is abysmal unless you're very unlucky and everyone is conditioned to spam stims the second they stub their toe which makes you pretty much unkillable for the duration.

how's that stash looking

>>536143092
Yeah, it honestly kinda pisses me off

>Accidentals are half the point
I always found accidentals as a feature to be utter cringe. It's refreshing that your shit doesn't phase through friendlies but I'd really prefer our theme to be survival against impossible odds instead of cheerful self-destruction. Plus making accidentals a regular occurrence just pushes me further towards being a pure solodiver where I won't have to take my mate's 500kg up the ass.

>>536143796
Says a lot that the most stressful part of any mission is at the very end when I'm forced to be near my teammates at extraction

>>536143331

>>536143258
Healthy enough for both warbonds and extra, actually the real rub right now is that I want to play but I also don't have anything of consequence to acquire with medals, don't want to waste medals by doing content at cap, but also want to stay at cap for when the bonds drop.

>>536143618
not terrible because that would leave far less room to fuck up compared to if they tried to do a serious mixup (see Nu-Illuminate) even if there would be a part of me that wonders if they couldn't have done more if they did try and weren't swiggers.

iktf. I minmax long range builds for no other reason than to keep my distance to the squad.

>>536143289
I disagree, just because you don't like it doesn't mean it's bad, but
people glorify the hell out of the HD1 soundtrack but when asked to name anything out of it, they always default to the max diff cyborg theme because of one *singular* part that has violins, but if you ask for anything besides that they have to force themselves to find something
as for hd2 I'm not a fan of the terminid theme but I get where he was coming from with it, I think the automaton theme is amazing with it's machinery sounds and marching rhythm, the illuminate theme itself just screams "you fucked up" but unfortunately the ingame faction just doesn't match it at all, because they scrapped the actual illuminate and outsourced it to a bunch of guys who made a shitty zombie faction instead
I think a contributing factor to people not realizing there's layered music in HD2 is that the system only accounts for the host and also bots being in "combat" with anything other than a helldiver (e.g. those instances where a bot randomly shits out a panic flare in some outpost far away) also triggers the battle themes
but the way the layers are supposed to work is
>ambient
>stress ambient
>outpost/nest ambient
>light combat
>heavy combat
>extremely heavy combat (the bot choir music was supposed to be this, but it doesn't work)

I like the HD2 soundtrack enough to have bought the vinyl

>>536143796
The way I see it is that placing down a turret and getting my head sawed off because I was being an idiot or got overwhelmed, is good, and even funny.
My turret spinning around to kill me despite there being no enemies behind me because of some malicious coding jank, sucks fucking eggs and isn't fun.
There's a very clear difference, and just because I hate the latter doesn't mean I hate the former.

>>536143487

No, 900% MORE of something is additive to the already existing 100%, totaling out to a Hunter value of 1000%
For example, if 1 Hunter is 100%, a 900% increase would be an increase of 9 Hunters, totaling out at 10 Hunters, or 1000%

There's a reason why every Gundam wears a skirt, because they protect the dick and joints from being damaged. I bring Quasar on bots because EAT is good but 2 is almost never enough unless you have another teammate bringing EAT with you. And just click heads on devastators, they have 1 armor heads

It's not meta defining, but it's a good quality of life passive. If you ever get fucked by Poor Intel, or the map RNG ends up with you discovering the Lidar Station last, an extra 15ish meters on your POI detection means you're gonna find these things a lot easier via general exploration.

Honestly I'd define the ODST passives as all "quality of life" over "meta-defining." Muffling the sound of your footprints has value, enemies can and do detect you via sound around LOS blocking terrain, and zero crippled leg chance is handy for Warp-maxxing.

Punisher, Eruptor

>bots
Amendment, Deadeye

>squids
Deadeye, Punisher Plasma

The only time I enjoy automatic weapons are with the Stalwart and MMG, so I think the salient issue with ARs, SMGs, and other automatic primaries is the amount of ammo you get. Sure, on the surface, you're carrying more total damage than most other weapons, but how much of it is lost to shits whiffing from sway and recoil? If you're supposed to use controlled bursts, why not just use a weapon that gets its full DPS out in that same kind of controlled way, like my preferred weapons?

I love the Stalwart/MMG because I can just go Rambo with them thanks to the big ammo pool, and that should be the benefits of ARs/SMGs as well, I think.

STILL 2/4 GET IN HERE

>urchin doesn't work on tanks or war striders
I know that sounds dumb but I'm still disappointed. What is this thing for?

>>536165560
because the noninnovative and retarded sweedes are digging deep in their asses for any idea to shit out as warbond content

>>536165560
Unironically it is only used for throwing at your fellow helldivers to laugh at them writhe around on the floor

>>536165080
How do you get by with Eruptor on bugs? Isn't that too slow for all the hunters swarming you?

>>536166085
probably sidearm or stalwart

>>536164742
starting 2/4

>>536097831
wish somebody would mod this

anyone got a fresh link for the sc beacon mod?
assuming it's been updated, my game wouldn't even start with my "old" mods when i tried yesterday

>>536097831
too vanilla

>>536166085
I run it with either the Stalwart and Ultimatum or the brap dog, bushwhacker, and Quasar.

>>536165080
I'm a normalfag and I like automatics on bugs and semi autos on bots. I know, but it just works. I do like accurate autos on bots sometimes like the Sickle.
>what about for squids
I do not play the alpha test nudev faction.

So how do I handle war strider spam if I still want to use the AC or AMR on bots? Or do I now have to bring an AT option by default on both bots and bugs?

Beat their meat

>>536165080
I'd jumble those around and skip deadeye
>bugs
Amendment absolutely fucks here, magdump as fast as possible on preds that sneak up on you, probably taking supply pack anyway for more stims so the synergy feels great having loads of extra ammo. Also lets you shoot bugs close to allies with no fear of friendly fire. Only thing it's not great against are heavies and hive guard, you'll have to circle around, or spam shots at the mouth to hit their bellies/sides.
>squids
eruptor is king, deals with everything worth shooting at. 2 shots for warp ship shields and one to the door, shit is insanely strong, just need a secondary or guard dog for voteless that get in melee range but other than those and stingrays, everything in the squid roster gets bodied by eruptor, easily.
>bots
There's a few different favorites I have, purifier is extremely good especially when the map decides to be 85% shielded devs (aim for the rearmost guy in the conga line, and let splash damage hit the guys in front) but eruptor is pretty good too. dickle is pretty nice too and i've come to appreciate the reprimand in semi like a close-range DMR but it's not the best

>>536164742
2/4 still let's go dead gamers

>>536166085
you use it to close holes and shoot far targets noob

>>536167954
wait a sec

>>536166085
like the xbow but cooler

>>536167587
thermites, air strikes, rocket sentries, think AC sentries can take them out in a few volleys ironically.

>>536100912
Yes, I farm SC.

>>536164742
AAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEE HOLD ON MY STEAM IS STILL STARTING UP

>>536167587
AChad here. They're not worth the ammo most of the time. Sometimes I'll shoot their leg joint if I'm in a favorable position, but otherwise I just throw a thermite on them. I ignore most of them, they're not a very engaging enemy.

3/4

>>536167587
If you don't want to bring Thermites for them, you can either soften them up with other strats then finish them off, get real gud at hitting the leg joint, or spam down their crotch with like 15 shots.

EAT is a nice thing to roll with AC anyway for emergency AT removal, but yeah bots got a lot less AC friendly with war strider spam seeds.

>>536167065
This is better, but I still don't like the fact that she looks more like a dragon than a bug.
