anyone need a diver?.. amavailable

[acoustic parrot]

Guess I'm simping for the Eagle pilot

[lean swallow]

[foggy token]

Anyone playing ^^

[orchid zinc]

Maybe i should try it on my stream deck:
https://www.pcgamer.com/games/third-person-shooter/helldivers-2-players-become-part-automaton-by-mapping-stratagems-to-a-stream-deck/

But it is kind of automaton behaviour and sort of un-democratic

[dark root]

I’m going to link them to VoiceCommand so I can summon them like I’m calling over the radio

[orchid zinc]

For how advanced super earth is, developing a SOFLAM isn't something they choose to do. But perhaps its too expensive to give to all Helldivers

[north needle]

A true Helldivers rebinds them to arrow keys and uses stratagems while running

[dark root]

But voice command is so cooooool

[orchid zinc]

That is a good point, i should re-map to arrows

[dark root]

I used it with Elite Dangerous and it was really fun

[north needle]

But they don’t use voice commands on their wrist device they type in the arrows

[orchid zinc]

How does it work if you say the wrong word? "Arrow left, arrow right, no i mean, arrow up" ?

[dark root]

Honestly idk how it’d work

You could setup a macro for the key strokes and then bind that macro to a command?

[north needle]

No you make a macro for your stratagem that’s activated when you say a phrase

[dark root]

^

[north needle]

Yeah this

lol

Macros are very automaton

But also I understand a helldiver using their own tech against them for democracy

[orchid zinc]

It is true. It is exactly what they would do, it's in their name

[dark root]

“Eagle Cluster Strike”
Macro go ➡️⬅️⬇️⬆️⬇️⬅️

[north needle]

Exactly

[dark root]

But I do like the arrow key idea, that could make life much easier

[north needle]

I think the only way macros would be acceptable is if they are entered in the same speed as someone typing it in.

[dark root]

Without the trouble of actually like… making macros and trouble shooting things 😂

[north needle]

But most people set it up so it’s like instant

[dark root]

I mean you can enter some of the stratagems hella fast

Orbital air burst for instance is literally like ➡️➡️➡️

[orchid zinc]

I thought about setting arrows up on the deck so i click arrows on it, instead of the keyboard, but i kinda feel it would be a bit slower than doing it on the keyboard

[north needle]

Yeah like the airburst

Yeah keyboard arrow is the way

[dark root]

Could use the numpad too?

[north needle]

It’s honestly so nice once you get used to typing in with your right hand while running with your left

[north needle]

I’m sure yeah the only reason I like arrow keys is because there is nothing around them

[orchid zinc]

Usually you must enable a key before you can use the numbers on the numpad. Arrows meanwhile have symbols on them and are in their own spot

[dark root]

Makes sense

But my arrow keys are tiny lol

Gotta work around these dilemmas

[north needle]

You can also set stratagem menu to tap to activate which is nice cus then you don’t have to hold it

[orchid zinc]

Ah fr

[north needle]

So you basically tap it, keep running type in with your arrow keys

I’ve had significantly less accidental drops because something hit me

[orchid zinc]

I'll do it. Thanks for letting me know^^

I bet today or tomorrow the voice rooms here will be filled with helldivers

[north needle]

Love to see it

https://tenor.com/view/i-love-it-gif-18812641

[orchid zinc]

We must get 8 player mode, 2 fireteams doing their own things on map, or perhaps 16 player mode against a large difficult boss

[north needle]

Would be cool to have a “raid” type thing

But my game already lags when a laser and a cluster bomb drops at the same time lol

[orchid zinc]

Time to upgrade in the name of democracy!

[north needle]

I would but my dog just had an emergency vet visit for $4000 💀

So new PC has been delayed

[orchid zinc]

ah damn that sucks man. May i ask what was wrong

[north needle]

He found a bone while we were out for a walk in the woods and must’ve swallowed it before I could see him do it. So he had a blockage, had to do a bunch of x-rays, IVs and stuff.

Every time they did an xray it was like $250

And of course he waited until the weekend so we had to go to an emergency vet not just his regular one

[orchid zinc]

Ah:s that really sucks.. Glad he was okay at least. Just sucks its that expensive, djizes. Surely you don't have to pay 4k out right? Hopefully a payment plan of some sort

[north needle]

Yeah it’s a payment plan

But yeah he’s good now

Here he is surveying melevelon creek

[orchid zinc]

It's a weird timing though right before Helldivers 2 came. I suspect the automatons placed the bone there, insects wouldn't be smart enough

What a beautiful dog. Is it a labrador?

[north needle]

Yup

1 year old today!

[orchid zinc]

Give him a treat! He deserves it

[faint veldt]

Thats a good pupper. Engage orbital treat delivery stratagem!

I’ve been trying to get my 3-D printer fixed so I can print my B0 –1tactical helmet to wear while I play, but the fucking automatons keep messing up my extruder and breaking the filament

[prime sandal]

Would be nice if you could do it on the map or open the map to confirm direction

🥺

[jaunty mason]

Was there an update today?

[jaunty mason]

It's the most beautiful thing I've ever seen 😍

[visual haven]

Yeah that's the first thing I said with my dutch friends

"AH YOU'VE GOTTA BE KIDDING, I GOTTA DO STARSHIP TROOPERS AND DANCE DANCE REVOLUTION?"

[vagrant roost]

i love, yet hate, how this game has taken over the literal OFFICAL, startship troopers game

which, on its own is a fine game

but....just fundamentally different

[visual haven]

I mean sort of

The problem is that it flatlined

Not enough new content fast enough

atleast for the gameplay loop

[vagrant roost]

i know 😭 dont remind me of what ive wanted ever since 6th grade Halloween

if they "reskin" this game into either warhammer 40k or a "true" starship troopers like game then i might cun

[queen helm]

In voice room 2 in case anyone wants to play

[foggy marsh]

okay yeah the Liberator Penetrator is useless against Bots cause theres either only light armor or heavy armor... but bugs?

fuck yeah

half a mag of well aimed fire kills those i flated acid bugs

and eats through Hive Guards as they sit there and TAKE IT

[dreamy vine]

I’m still heavily partial to guard dog/breaker/stalwart for mid difficulty bugs

[proven panther]

watch out this man is cunning

[foggy marsh]

cant wait for my guard dog to accidently hit the nuke next to me

[harsh stag]

I love when my own guard dog rover just lasers my forehead off

[vagrant roost]

you cant tell me that the "mechs" dont look like some fucking warhammer mini's

[foggy marsh]

i mean... the way you get in and out of it.. i think its more like the Mantis from Halo

just regular legs...

mechs gunna be cliche though!!.. APC gang is where I'll be!

[wild venture]

i wanna have the jeep with the gun on it to recreate RvB

chargers are perfectly balanced

[old shell]

The Creek is being liberated

[foggy marsh]

gasp does it have 6 pedals

[near canopy]

I will join the fight for democracy tomorrow. I'm downloading the game tonight!!!

[wild venture]

i need a more efficient and merciless way of destroying hulks
i want them erasen off the face of the entire galaxy
however, 500kg bombs are not standard issued

[vagrant roost]

railgun

[neon sierra]

You can one shot them with the railgun if you shoot them in the head

[wild venture]

is an autocannon useful?

i need 8 more levels for a railgun

[vagrant roost]

no, sadly

[wild venture]

fuck

[jaunty mason]

Very

Autocannon is great

[vagrant roost]

orbital railgun

ive had like 0 luck with the AC

[jaunty mason]

Ive had a great time with it

[wild venture]

its like an automatic recoilless cannon

because the recoilless cannon takes a really long time to rearm

and it cant even kill a charger or weaken its armor in 1 shot

[jaunty mason]

I can kill a hulk in 2 shots if you shoot it in the eye

[untold shore]

My son have you heard of the stratagem get good?

The Autocannon can destroy if you hit the weak spots the hard part is getting distance to line it up

[jaunty mason]

And you kill all medium armored targets

It can also kill tanks and chargers

[wild venture]

autocannon rounds just bounce off the charger

i try hitting the ground under it, but doesnt help much

i think i shot a charger once 8 times in the ass with the autocannon and it didnt die

[jaunty mason]

Dont hit it in the loegs

Hit it in its side

Or tail

It works fine

[wild venture]

its hard to do that when theres around 50 bugs with armor

and stalkers

i want something that can murder it in a single shot from the front

both charger and hulk

[dark root]

Once you blow the armor off the front legs the anti tank weapons can one shot them

[untold shore]

Then you want the spear or rocket launcher

[dark root]

Just requires team work

Best you’re really gonna get is a 2 shot I think

One to strip the armor and one to kill it

Unless you bop them with an orbital rail canon shot 😂

[untold shore]

Yeah until you get railcannon

[jaunty mason]

Its better than nothing

[wild venture]

True

But with them being annoying af, armored to the teeth and both being faster than me i wish there was a quick and easy way to kill them without a stratagem and under 20 seconds

[foggy marsh]

@wild venture one shot to the leg with expendable anti-tank.. exposes leg to primary weapon fire..

efficient use of ammo

so long as the armor is torn off the charger's leg it will die from that leg if enough bullets go into it

[tall yew]

It’s very economical to leg attack a charger bug.

[leaden kernel]

LFG

[vagrant roost]

anyone diving?

[old delta]

I'm brand new started today

hit level 10 got my rover and I'm looking for experienced divers for tips

[dark root]

It took @jagged folio one sesh buddy loading the autocanon to decide this is the best game ever

doodoodoodoodoodoo

[jagged folio]

LOL

[tranquil moon]

Any o you fellas gonna be on in about half an hour? I get off work then and would like some fellas to run lvl 7s with. Tired of people teamkilling due to no comms or just spam shooting the arc cannon without paying attention to where the bois are at

[wild venture]

I dont like the expendeable
Its in the name, expendeable
I wanna have it be able to reload

[molten ocean]

Found this when i was surfing on YT. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g6upPLBQ4R8

[wild venture]

Mechs

But idc about mechs

I care for the vehicle with a machinegun

[sharp hare]

hows the war front going, ive been busy the last 2 days

[fervent ravine]

I just started the game and oof those bugs! There are ALOT of BUGS! 😂

[vagrant roost]

nowhere near the true amount

[dreamy vine]

I had a round last night where I had 695 kills and I was in a 4 person lol

[foggy marsh]

yeah i saw someone with that amount ON CHALLENGING4

also hunter bugs.. holy fuck the amount of hunter bugs

you're basically stun locked if you have too many of those fuckers

[dreamy vine]

Stalwart/breaker/giard dog is my go to for bugs til about level 5. Then I swap the stalwart for a rail gun to 1 shot hive guards and 2-3 shot chargers

[zinc mauve]

lfg

[foggy marsh]

@dreamy vine you still need at least 1 guy to handle crowd control, the rest can fuck the big bois.. strategems can handle most of the small things but what happens when the small things gangbang you?

[vagrant roost]

anyone diving yet today?

[dark root]

That is what the machine gun is for

https://tenor.com/view/rambo-first-blood-machine-gun-shooter-rampage-gif-21761600

[wild turret]

how tf do you three shot a charger? using the railgun on unsafe I still can't take those fuckers down

[queen haven]

break leg armor

2 shot breaks the leg armor and 1 shot to kill

[wild turret]

ahhhh

[foggy marsh]

HiveGuards are specifically the ones with medium armor btw.. Lib Penetrator kills them easily unlike the other weapons

[alpine lake]

WHO'S DIVING RIGHT NOW?

[foggy marsh]

wish i was but am stuck :/

[zinc mauve]

5 chargers in a level 5 mission the actual hell

[untold shore]

Oh just wait, if you think 5 is bad....

[zinc mauve]

Have not had that on helldive aha

[dreamy vine]

Murder, you just become a murder hobo with the shotgun.

[dreamy vine]

Like other said the legs or 2-3 shots in the side

[foggy marsh]

i likez Breaker.. but.. i always see everyone use Breaker.. it really makes me not want it

oh yeah this is going the rounds on the HD2 Community

if anyone does this i swear to god you're going to get your face punched in

[hidden furnace]

https://tenor.com/view/im-your-huckle-berry-cowboy-gif-14495507

[wild venture]

breaker is like the little brother of the pump shotgun that i dont remember the name of

[tranquil moon]

Aparantly breaker has better overall damage and is “meta”

[wild venture]

it gets boring to always use the breaker

i also wanna use the assault rifle but then i remembered is a starter weapon

[tranquil moon]

I stay away from it, never been a fan of auto shot tha

[tranquil moon]

My GUY the base liberator is my main weapon.

[wild venture]

what level are you?

[tranquil moon]

36

[wild venture]

oh

uhhh

can i trade u 440 supercredits for 6 of your levels?

i NEED the railgun

also

only the base liberator?

[tranquil moon]

Nah man if you NEED the rail gun you’re playing the game wrong. Truthfully everything is viable 😂

[wild venture]

u dont have the penetrator version?

[tranquil moon]

Yeah man. Base liberator slaps hard

[wild venture]

i cant kill a hulk with anything i have correctly

[tranquil moon]

I have all the weps from where I’m at in the pass currently

[wild venture]

autocannon? bounces
recoilless rifle? im a rat thrown into a deep frier before i even finish the reload

airstrikes? too fast to actually calculate and can somehow even survive it?

[neon sierra]

I’m level 50 I would give you the levels for free if I could 😂

[tranquil moon]

Up to the slug shotty. And I still use the base liberator. Great damage, great mag cap, and overall just good for all around play

[wild venture]

the submachinegun does more damage

but at a slower fire rate

i though it was better

[tranquil moon]

True. But it’s up to preference

[wild venture]

actually

[tranquil moon]

That slower fire rate is awesome for just keeping you in the fight. But you also get less overall mags to use. So on lvl 7 and up (I only stick to 7 for now, not skilled enough to go any higher) I’ve been running outta ammo a LOT

[wild venture]

how the fuck do you even make a "high caliber" submachinegun

[wild venture]

level 6 is already hard for me

for some reason i rather have 2 players than 4

[tranquil moon]

Preferably that’s why I stick to base lib. For my heavy I either take the AMR, autocannon, stalwart, or the arc thrower.

[wild venture]

autocannon is like an automatic recoilless rifle

[hollow fog]

Defender SMG is peak

[tranquil moon]

Tbh it’s not a bad idea to run 2 teams of 2 and just clear maps like that. That’s what I’ve been doing and I damn near only play with randos since my work schedule is beyond fucked

[wild venture]

me and a random did a level 6 mission and even though we ran out of reinforcements and i killed myself when extraction touched down, we did everything

[tranquil moon]

You can use the autocannon on chargers, just means you have to be much more precise with your shot placement. Eventually you get the feel for it but yeah the rail gun just makes everything much easier. I understand why people fiend for it 🤣

[wild venture]

i tried shooting under it, nothing

[tranquil moon]

Truth be told through. For automatons railgun is the GOAT because it can 1 shot hulks easy. Even if you’re on safe. I generally miss my first and 2 shot them

[wild venture]

i think i shot one about 8 times with the autocannon and didnt die

[wild venture]

i hate chargers with a passion

[tranquil moon]

Nah you have to bait the chargers. Wait my for it to get past you. And then shoot it in the butt. To strip the armor you HAVE to hit a very precise spot on the back leg armor after it’s charged past you.

[wild venture]

give me tanks, give me the star wars walkers, give me rocket guys, whatever
but FOR THE LOVE OF SUPER EARTH NEVER GIVE ME A DICKHEAD WITH A FLAMETHROWER AND A SAW WITH ARMOR THICKER THAN MY BOMBS

[tranquil moon]

😂

Haven’t seen anyone use the flamethrower for anything more than the achievement

[wild venture]

that guy can tank autocannon and recolless rifle rounds like crazy

[wild venture]

fr

its annoying to use it

even more when u dont have it unlocked

[tranquil moon]

Expendable AT really isn’t that bad of a choice though.

[wild venture]

so u gotta go around the map

[wild venture]

its expendeable
its already bad

and it only gives u 2

if it does more damage than a recoilless rifle, then great i should use it

but i cant reload it so i never trierd it

[tranquil moon]

It does about the same and you can cLl it down more often than you think.

If you really don’t have anything for stripping armor and that’s what you’re struggling with. It’s really not a horrible choice.

Recoiless is great, but if you’re in a situation where you have MULTIPLE chargers coming at you, it’s about as useful as the expendable AT. One of the benefits of the expendable one though is you can still carry a support backpack.

[wild venture]

ill probably have to see

but auto is my go to for automatons

might not be able to kill hulks, but i have 10 rounds to kill anything else

except tanks

[tranquil moon]

If you’re struggling with mob control take a guard dog backpack. They’re AMAZING for having that extra gun to cover you

[tranquil moon]

Use the eagle 110mm rocket strike. Indra kills tanks

[wild venture]

tried that

useless

[tranquil moon]

Uhhh not useless I use it and it kills them in 1 pass

Unless you’re talking about the bugs. Then I agree it’s useless 😂

[wild venture]

i threw rockets at a tank once

and i think also at a hulk

useless

uhh

wanna play now?

[vagrant roost]

base gun is based

[foggy marsh]

oh shit guys Angel's Venture is being invaded again

also 110mm rockets are amazing

[tranquil moon]

The only thing I’ve seen the 110 be useful for are the automaton tanks 😂 they miss chargers and take too many runs to strip the armor off of titans.

[tranquil moon]

I can play maybe 1 round as in like 1 full mission. I gotta go to work soon

[wild venture]

oof

[tranquil moon]

Like I said 🤣 my work scheduel is the main reason I only play with ransoms. When I’m off work all my friends have left to go to work already.

the only not viable thing in this game is the ballistic shield against the bugs lol

[zinc mauve]

Game is still in a honeymoon phase being the new big thing give it a while once people have hit the max levels and also see what the Devs have in mind for DLC and future content

[queen helm]

yes I know, was joking for the most part :P

[north needle]

Did you play Helldivers 1

[wild venture]

perfect united kingdom traffic experience

[wild venture]

of course not

[zinc mauve]

As fun as the game is it boils down to doing the same thing back to back idk how long the player base can keep it going

[north needle]

Hahaha vehicles are like paper Mâché

[wild venture]

are they fast?

[north needle]

They look cool but they take like 1 charger hit and they die

The had a dune buggy that was fast

[fervent ravine]

[north needle]

But the mech and LAV were slower but had a lot of fire power

[orchid zinc]

I dont think the game will "die" but im curious what Player numbers are in a month or two

[zinc mauve]

oh yeah no it's to fun of a game to die but the hype will die down quite a bit I think

[orchid zinc]

As long as they add more content, etc it should keep people playing. But for what the game costs i dont feel getting 37 hours almost out of it is bad

Even if i were to stop playing at 50

[sharp hare]

Published by them not owned

isnt it already?
it was published by playstation

idk im dum

but helldivers 2 is published by playstation

[sharp hare]

Yup published doesn't mean owned though like Kojima productions was published by ps but not owned by them

[foggy marsh]

that's a weird tweet

though this may be patched in future as i think this isnt intentional

[north needle]

Big balance update! Let’s goooooo!

[foggy token]

Niiiicccceee!!!!!!

[valid shore]

Big significant changes just hit this morning

[north needle]

Yeah, excited to actually have the barrages be effective haha

[orchid zinc]

What kind of changes?

[valid shore]

Fresh new patch notes Helldivers!

Major Updates
Planetary Hazards active
Many planets now have additional environmental challenges that will appear at random while you are deployed, from fire tornadoes to meteor showers and many more.

Balancing

Eradicate Missions
Eradicate missions now require more kills and enemies spawn more often. The time to complete the mission was previously shorter than intended and should now usually take twice as long to complete.

Primary, Secondary, & Support Weapons

Breaker: Decreased magazine capacity from 16 to 13, increased recoil from 30 to 55
Railgun: Decreased armor penetration, decreased damage against durable enemy parts
Flamethrower: Increased damage per second by 50%
Laser Cannon: Increased damage against durable enemy parts, increased armor penetration, improved ergonomics
Punisher: Increased total ammo capacity from 40 to 60, increased stagger force, increased damage from 40 per bullet to 45 per bullet
Breaker Spray & Pray: Increased armor penetration, increased fire rate from 300 to 330, increased number of pellets from 12 to 16 per shot, decreased magazine size from to 32 to 26

Stratagems
Energy Shield Backpack: Increased delay before recharging
380mm and 120mm Orbital Barrages: Increased duration of the bombardment, decreased spread

Fixes
Fixed armor rating values not reducing damage as intended.
Fixed certain Bug Holes (including Stalker Nests) that were unnecessarily hard to destroy.
Fixed anti-aliasing toggle not working on PS5.
Balanced lighting across all planets to solve cases where the game was too dark.
Improved flashlight efficacy.
Increased visibility during “sand rain” weather on Erata Prime.
Updated tutorial materials and lighting.
Improved cases where some materials could look blurry if "Lighting" graphic setting was set to "Low".
Fixed timing issues that could occur in the “Extract E-710” primary objective.
Changed button interaction behavior for buttons in bunker POIs. Helldivers will now let go of the button after holding it for a few seconds.
Fixed some cases of large assets floating if the ground beneath them was blown up.
Helldivers standing next to ICBMs during launch will get properly toasty with a chance of not-so-spontaneous combustion.
Fixed unthrowable snowballs after ragdolling.
Fixed being able to use grenades after drowning.
Camera no longer locked on the player's own corpse and blocking spectator mode.
Helldivers now take damage from fire, gas etc. generated by other players.
Armor no longer stretches when dismembered.

Known Issues
These are issues that were either introduced by this patch and are being worked on, or are from a previous version and have not yet been fixed.
Game may crash after dropping several high power stratagems in succession.
Picking up items from caches may cause characters to freeze in place for an extended period of time.
Picking up items from bunkers and caches in quick succession may render one of the items unpickable.
Players cannot unfriend other players befriended via friend code.
Players may be unable to select loadout or return to ship when joining a multiplayer game session via PS5 Activity Card.
Mission objective HUD displays different numbers for client and host during some missions.
Default armor is always shown while viewing the warbond, regardless of the armor that player has equipped.
Text chat box display is obstructed by the cinematic letterboxing during extraction.
Some text in the HUD/UI is missing or not displaying correctly.
Players may experience issues when many players attempt to login and/or play at the same time:
Login rate limiting
Players may become disconnected during play
Various UI issues may appear when the game interacts with servers
Some games may not be joinable by others for a short period of time

[orchid zinc]

Thanks lol

[valid shore]

We have actual tornades and meteors and shit too on planets!

but big weapon changes too, id read through it all

Breaker Spray & Pray: Increased armor penetration, increased fire rate from 300 to 330, increased number of pellets from 12 to 16 per shot, decreased magazine size from to 32 to 26

Both barrages are going to be more usable now too

[north needle]

I’m more excited to actually try the flamethrower and laz cannon

[valid shore]

Yeah ive been wanting to use it just cause its cool as shit but the damage for ammo use just wasn't there

[north needle]

Exactly

[valid shore]

i kinda feel like even 50% is still too low but we'll see

[north needle]

Yeah, we will see might be great for those bug breach holes though

Just burn them as they come out

[orchid zinc]

Why nerf the railgun

[valid shore]

Last night I setup a voice recognition program todo vocal call outs for my stratagens (just something fun todo) and it was cool as hell lol

[orchid zinc]

Hopefully the laser gun is worth using now as it kinda sucked before

[north needle]

Cus the game isn’t called Helldivers and Railguns

[valid shore]

Because the railgun is a "meta" atm and wanting to even it out more due to so many in the community talking about it probably is my guess

[north needle]

The other weapons are so fun, but if everyone uses the rail gun it’s kinda lame

[valid shore]

Its one of my least used weapons though, I'm too in love with the arc thrower

[orchid zinc]

Sure.. But what are we supposed to use now against the annoying chargers and titans

[north needle]

4 offensive stratagems and map pickups for me

[valid shore]

When I can get around 800-1000 kills I think its a great asset to have 1 of those in every party for crowd control

[north needle]

Barrages

[valid shore]

Arc thrower drops chargers decently fast too!

[orchid zinc]

True enough it was meta. But ill try out the other weapons

[north needle]

Yeah arc thrower penetrates armor

Also the spear can 1 shot bile titans

If you are facing it head on

[orchid zinc]

Dont really feel barrages are good for it since they move away by the time it hits:p however since they have buffed other guns they probably do work well

[north needle]

They made the barrage spread tighter and fire more shots

[valid shore]

I've killed them with walking barrages too if you line it up right and it doesn't walk zizag like

[north needle]

Also the rail gun will still slap in unsafe mode

[orchid zinc]

Nice. Will be exciting to try ut out after these changes

[north needle]

They are all implemented as of this morning

[valid shore]

btw im about to hop on if anyones playin!

[north needle]

Also we will have mechs soon to handle biles

[valid shore]

so excited for mechs

[orchid zinc]

I just hope the merchs survive more than 1 hit from the charger lol

[valid shore]

Chargers are so annoying when they start doing tokyo drift and seem to never stop lol

[north needle]

Don’t let them hit you

https://tenor.com/view/think-smart-gif-22411928

[orchid zinc]

There's that 🔥! Hopefully the guns on it are effective enough though little ammo im guessing to counter Balance it

[north needle]

In the first game I think you could resupply it. But I can’t remember

They were really fun to use during extracts in the first game

[grave rock]

Idk if this was posted or not but the newest update

[faint veldt]

@harsh moth flamethrower increased damage by 50% happy Flame Diver noises

excuse me, does it work well?

[delicate wave]

Anyone wanna play?

[sleek hemlock]

wait, why is that translated to portuguese?

[foggy marsh]

armor is fixed btw.... cause i did a solo trivial mission for fun and pass time and i got wrecked by automaton infantrymen while i wore light armor

heavy armor should be a bit tanky..

[orchid zinc]

Likely because he is portugese :p

[faint veldt]

You mean Goel isn’t alone?!

[wild venture]

ye

also who tf called a stratagem

[faint veldt]

thats a pre-buff 380mm, photographer boutta get got

[harsh moth]

I am curious if it's just flamethrower fire dots or other fire dots as well

[prisma hare]

that spelling error

[cloud ore]

thats a big yikes

L patch

[foggy marsh]

bruh wut

[cloud ore]

it wont affect difficulties 1-5 too much

but

lets say you are 1 on 1 with a charger

thats a pretty easy fight

EAT, Recoiless, so on

[north needle]

Huh… that’s not a spelling error

[cloud ore]

now lets say you are on 6+ difficulty
try facing 2 chargers at once

try 3

maybe even 4

with that rail nerf you lost the only quick and consistent method of dealing with them

[north needle]

Spear 1 shots them on tier 8 🤨

[cloud ore]

sure but you only got 3 shots

[north needle]

I literally 1 shot them all the time

[cloud ore]

the higher difficulty, more shit spawns

[north needle]

Same with bile

It’s a good balance patch. People will actually use other stuff besides railgun shield combo to spread democracy

Plus barrages last like 30+ seconds now

[cloud ore]

in the lower difficulties id agree. not so much for 7+ where you need that spamability

[wide estuary]

anyone down to play some?

[north needle]

I mean I beat tier 8-9 without touching the railgun and using the spear

So while it sucks for those that exclusively use it there’s options out there

[cloud ore]

keep in mind my perspective im working with mostly rando's and solo

[north needle]

https://tenor.com/view/hurricaneger-team-super-sentai-sentai-tokusatsu-gif-21888579

Gotta team up!

[cloud ore]

you got a well functioning team that can take on pretty much anything

and sometimes

you gotta take out the trash

[north needle]

You didn’t have to murder them!

lol

[cloud ore]

lol, im actually not sure how accurate accidentals are

[north needle]

I die randomly and it’ll be like x person killed you and they’re nowhere near me

So I agree

[cloud ore]

gone entire matches where im sure i havent killed anyone, and i still get accidentals

[north needle]

But 9/10 I die to Tharen and his laser watchdog thing

[cloud ore]

watchdog is easy S tier

dont trash it

[north needle]

For murdering teammates yes

[cloud ore]

thats reserved for clusterbombs

[north needle]

lol yeah those too

[foggy marsh]

railgun is not to be some womder weapon that makes everything else obsolete

[north needle]

Exactly

It compliments a well balanced team

[alpine lake]

WHO'S DEPLOYING DEMOCRACY?

[harsh moth]

Efficacy is a word

Oh I'm late

[cloud ore]

and im not asking for that, im asking for something viable against hordes of chargers with a low TTK. too OP for some? maybe, but if i learned anything from my time deathwishing/one-downing PD2 you need to dish out tons of damage quickly to survive those skulldozers

[north needle]

I still think you should just learn to kite and use 500Kg

lol

[foggy marsh]

there are plenty of ways.. and much requires teamwork.. 6 chargers in 3 minutes is easy with the right special weapons and strategems

[cloud ore]

ye, a well functioning team can take anything regardless of weaponry

[cloud ore]

am gonna try out that flamethrower and see how it fares

[foggy marsh]

wish they made the ranfe longer too..

https://tenor.com/view/armored-tank-missile-fire-gif-3391209

[north needle]

At least it doesn’t have a spool up time anymore

[north needle]

@cloud ore Here ya go

[cloud ore]

been using it

pretty good

did a diff 7 with 2 others, 4 bile titans in that one

[pearl junco]

I personally stand behind Dread with my watchdog just to increase his blood pressure

[north needle]

Early grave for someone…

[pearl junco]

Yeah, him

🤣

[foggy marsh]

@north needle waddya mean spin up time?

THEY GOT RID OF MY SPRAY?!

[north needle]

It just goes doesn’t have that slow start for the flamethrower

Used to have like 2-3 second delay now it just goes

[foggy marsh]

i cant have 3 of my guys and spray fuel all over a random anymore? :'(

[sterile charm]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PJnXFNEc-dg

Nothing shocking, the extra spawns and time to spawn are trash

[wild venture]

i cannot enter any difficulty without the full stock one

[sterile charm]

What, You don't like landing with only 4 out of your 7 mags?

and only 2 grenades

[wild venture]

in a level 8 difficulty?

FUCK NO

ammo is kinda everywhere
grenades and stims are hard to find

talking about grenades and stims

What do you guys prefer? 6 grenades or 6 stims?

[faint veldt]

havent ventured over 5 yet but grenades

[orchid zinc]

U mean sacrifing your own life to get it dropped on you with tons of enemies around ?

[fervent ravine]

Anyone else having issues with the game crashing while in middle of a mission?

Also keep getting message saying I have been kicked from the game.

[harsh moth]

Flamethrower

[harsh moth]

It's the greatest weapon in the game I'm completely unbiased
.
My loadout is:

• napalm eagle
  -flamethrower
  -incendiary mine
  -jetpack
  -incendiary grenade
  -incendiary breaker
  .
  Completely unbiased byw

[harsh moth]

This is viagara to me

[foggy marsh]

better wear that orange armor for full flame trooper goodness

[harsh moth]

Correct

Although the helmet with the red eye reticle. It's for pyrovision

[foggy marsh]

Unfortunately, our Dispatcher of Daily Orders was recently discovered to be an Automaton sympathizer and has been relocated to a Super Earth re-education facility in the far reaches of Widow's Harbor so that he may be swiftly and humanely reminded of his loyalties. This means that Daily Orders will be unavailable for the rest of the day until his position can be filled by another adequately loyal citizen tomorrow morning. Thank you for your patience and understanding, Helldivers! Continue fighting for Freedom!

[old delta]

Anyone want to play?

[wild venture]

yes

[old delta]

Let me finish this call to arms match

[wild venture]

also another question
the 500kg bomb is equal to a bit more powerful version of the Mk83
however, the thing is
why the fuck didnt they add a 2000 pounder instead of a 1000 pounder?

double the pounds, double the freedom, double the collateral damage, double the hearing loss

[torn kernel]

500kg *2.2 is 1200

[old delta]

Downloading the game now. I switched to my new PC

[torn kernel]

so I mistyped 2200 the first time lol

but 1200 aint nothin to scoff at

[wild venture]

ye

but i prefer bigger

do not take that out of context

[wild venture]

lmao

[hollow fog]

Helldiver randoms are stupid enough to rival Hell Let Loose randoms

[foggy marsh]

i do love to teach a few that are willing to learn

and also inspire them

with some DEMOCRATIC PATRIOTISM

[faint veldt]

SO many no mics, its crazy

only complaint I have about the game so far

[hollow fog]

can’t inspire those who have no thoughts

[hollow fog]

apparently its like this in every game nowadays. no mic central

[foggy marsh]

maybe cause they console players

[hollow fog]

or wasted all their money on super credits

[foggy marsh]

lmao

[valid shore]

For me it did, rarely had to repeat myself.

But I spent like an hour teaching my computer how I talk as well to help the AI better understand and I ensured I used easier to say and understand things "500" for the 500k "arc" for the arc thrower "Supply" but for testing I did do "Shit's fucked I need my boys!" and it called in reinforcements lol

[tranquil crystal]

Did you see any tutorials on it? I kinda wanna try and tackle doing that now just for the immersion of feeling even more like a badass

@valid shore

[orchid zinc]

Someone walking past your room will wonder wtf you doing lol

[tranquil crystal]

I am certain they have heard far stranger when talking to people 😉

[gilded ginkgo]

Love to see GOH!

[wild venture]

how am i supposed to kill hulks and the walkers and chargers

Nah no tutorial its self explainitory but when you're using 'any' voice software you wanna make sure you use your windows voice recognition training to allow your PC to understand 'you' just to help it with its accuracy.

[foggy marsh]

@neon sierra https://fxtwitter.com/CadiaStands/status/1765363152177303762?s=20

i'm told it's a bug big sad..

Yes I can confirm that charger is a bug

[foggy marsh]

goddamnit i knew youd say that

[sterile charm]

https://i.4cdn.org/vg/1709779824104456.jpg

[tranquil crystal]

One more question. Is it a script to run the voice commands? Or does the game for some reason have a feature for that built in just not advertised?

[north needle]

It’s a macro script thing

Should try just swapping stratagems to arrow keys and then you can run and use them at the same time.

[tranquil crystal]

Gotcha

[valid shore]

Yeah it's an accessibility program. So it sends key presses in the form of macros. One of my actually disabled friends that doesn't have use of a hand uses it for gaming in general.

[tranquil crystal]

Pretty useful tool then.

[north needle]

the fact we as a community getbto unlock the update is badass

[faint veldt]

Be really cool to see it be a consistent thing to. Like if we lose that planet we lose our Exo’s

[harsh stag]

We must release the mechs!

[untold shore]

That would be really cool!

[jagged folio]

Some great soldier has risked his account and has tampered with game files to test the new stuff coming out.

There's a video on it.

[north needle]

sounds like treason to me.

truly the battle for tien kwan will be rememberd for the ages

and in Tien Kwan some operations you have 1 less stratagem all 3 missions

so it's harder than hard

I NEED DEMOCRATS TO HELLDIVE

[harsh moth]

Typical @faint veldt midgame rant https://youtube.com/shorts/8WbdESrYGn8?si=5Jj5vd2l2_VvVq35

[faint veldt]

accurate

[harsh moth]

Didn't you also kick a random for exactly that last night?

[faint veldt]

Yes, and I stand by my decision

[alpine lake]

but but but the rover is good rover

[zinc mauve]

Reports are stating that there are Exosuits on Tien Kwai but rare to find

[untold shore]

👀

[hidden furnace]

the nerfs were pointless

[orchid zinc]

Why

[cosmic pike]

I see why they nerfed the railgun but man o man.

[zinc mauve]

I mean put it on unsafe mode and imo not see a huge issue. I still one shot a hulk if you hit it in the red bar in the center

[cosmic pike]

yeah but two shots doesn't strip armor off chargers anymore

[hidden furnace]

I feel like they did something to the enemies too, the whole game feels....different. Buddy and I went from being able to duo level 8 missions

[zinc mauve]

I bring my spear for bugs now

[untold shore]

Spear and recoiless seem to be the way to go bow

Now*

That and flame thrower

[hidden furnace]

i just tried using the spear......absolutely trash

shot a turret 4 times, didn't kill it

[zinc mauve]

Thing is people would just take same stuff to every mission type robot or bugs but now you gotta adjust. For me rifle and railgun for bots and breaker and spear for bugs

[hidden furnace]

so make the other stuff more viable, as is the game isn't fun anymore with these changes. I guess that's one way to get your server bills down.

[cosmic pike]

about to head over to help take tien kwan

[hidden furnace]

I really think they messed with what made the game so popular for them. Hope it doesn't bite them in the ass but so far me and my friends are like...this isn't fun anymore, let's play something else.

[cosmic pike]

I personnally still enjoy the game.

[prime sandal]

I think they changed a lot of back end stuff without saying things

That’s why it feels different

[hidden furnace]

had to have. It feels completely different

[orchid zinc]

They need to get enemy spawns balanced as well.

Talk about timing

[unkempt bronze]

😂

[wild venture]

i need to shoot like 5 unsafe rounds agaisnt a minigun shitvastator for him to die

[foggy marsh]

did you aim accurately?.. his head r backpack area?

[foggy marsh]

motherfuckers ruined eradicate automaton mission by adding slopes to our defensible position

[valid shore]

Diver looking to squad up! o7

[eager yarrow]

kinda how i feel right now

I haven't even used the railgun so far cause I do tend to use other things esp at lower diffs, but other guns just feel.. eh.. compared to the mainstream

The laser cannon actually feels quite good to use now, wish the devs would do that with some of the primaries so they feel as good as the breaker used to feel

Also, 250 medals is the cap

just found that out

[hollow fog]

All the guns that got nerfed are things I don't use lol

SMG Defender is best gun in the game

[dreamy vine]

I used the Smg a lot tonight and felt it was solid against bots, went back to auto cannon for bot fights too

[eager yarrow]

I think autocannon is definitely the best utility

It can blow up titan's bellies easily so they cant spit, can kill hulks from the front via headshots, it can 2-3 shot chargers in the ass, insta kills ATSTs

Can destroy factories/bugholes

[cloud ore]

this is on 7 bugs

that one was rough

though i will say most people at 7 are reasonable with their skill

8 and 9 id need a proper team to do

@dark root

[wild venture]

ah yes i love it when im trying to exfiltrate and some fucking horrible game design shit of always having a squad going TO YOUR EXACT FUCKING POSITION kills me
and IF I EVER TRY TO FIGHT BACK THE FUCKING SQUAD, THEY THROW A FUCKING FLARE AND THE ENTIRE PLANET COMES AND KILLS ME

I LOVE IT SO MUCH

[north needle]

https://tenor.com/view/bots-hobots-buzz-lightyear-toy-story-woody-gif-17120878

[wild venture]

like seriously, why did they make it so a squad is always going to your position when you are SPECIFICALLY trying to evade automatons

[north needle]

Bugs do the same thing

[wild venture]

AND YOU CANT EVEN FIGHT BACK BECAUSE THEY WILL CALL DESTRUCTORS OR TANKS OR HULKS OR ANYTHING WITH ARMOR THICKER THAN MY BOMBS

[north needle]

Bots is all about kiting away from objective

They’re significantly more challenging tactics wise because they’re ranged

Especially solo

[jaunty mason]

Womp womp

Nah, the autocannon works well for the bots

It can kill everything you will run up against

[north needle]

I’ve also found the slugger shotgun works well cus it’s a high damage sniper basically

Just gotta learn to hit crit spots

[jaunty mason]

Hulk gets hit in the eye and is killed, tank in the back, turret in the back,

Etc

[dark root]

Autocanon is massively pog I agree

Handles Devastators, Hulks and Tanks fairly well

And you can even use it on Chargers if you play on bug world, but you have to hit the back of the legs

[cloud ore]

does the autocannon penetrate the hulks face?

[foggy marsh]

yes

its gotta be right on the red though.. its such a tiny hitbox

[cloud ore]

damn

and i thought i had my railgun timing down

[foggy marsh]

2-3 shots should kill it

[dark root]

I prefer just rushing them and then running around them so a teammate can shoot the thermal vent

And/or bop them with the recoiless rifle. I find it 2-shots them pretty handily, and can 1-shot from the rear

[jagged folio]

i love the autocannon

thank the super earth engineers for it's magnificent design.

[dark root]

Autocanon is massively based I agree

Autocanon plus autocanon turret plus battle buddy with autocanon is the strat

[jagged folio]

I agree

everyone should have an autocannon

and an autocannon turret

[dark root]

@normal ermine and I like to double up the autocanon so we can just swap between buddy loading each other

It’s the big funny

[prime sandal]

Spawns are even more wack this patch

Cheesy rice

[orchid zinc]

[dreamy vine]

the hell is oging on with the servers, cant connect, says steam overlay isnt on, etc

[zinc mauve]

servers are super laged

[untold shore]

they are getting pounded I bet cause of mechs

[zinc mauve]

yeah its like the whole player base just logged on

[dreamy vine]

lol guess so

[zinc mauve]

anybody playing?

[proven panther]

They need to make major orders longer. I couldn't play for 2 days and never even had a chance to participate

[foggy marsh]

when its alone sure, but supported by other hulks or light infantry yeah impossible.. especially lvl7 and up

[dark root]

That’s why we just kill everything else 😈

[zinc mauve]

Exo Suit very fun to use

tho 10min cooldown

[delicate wave]

the servers are being janky and it wont let me unlock it ),:

[jagged folio]

[exotic pasture]

Tien Kwan got liberated

but didn't get any of the medals
there were 50 total

sadge

[foggy marsh]

wait a while they are aware

[exotic pasture]

ah

[jagged folio]

Ya it a bug happened with last one but I eventually got them randomly

[gilded ginkgo]

Time to get mechanized

[jagged folio]

The game got a few bugs rn with new updates

Crashes and one being you get frozen after you open those caches on the maps.

[foggy marsh]

ask someone to punch you

[gilded ginkgo]

Who

[foggy marsh]

any teammate

[foggy marsh]

then stay stuck

[unkempt bronze]

Are the servers down?

[exotic pasture]

they are being janky

I have done like 6 missions to completion with no medals whatsoever

[untold shore]

I think that servers are being smashed and we will get medals eventually

[foggy marsh]

probably log out and log back in

if not then wait till tomorrow

its been like this since launch so i wouldnt worry

its like a funnel and someone shoving a silo's worth of oil dpwn

[fossil crag]

God bless DEMOCRACY

[oak geode]

a series of unfortunate events

[wild venture]

i love helldivers tips, they resonate a lot with me

[wild venture]

they gave out free exosuits

theyre... ok?

you get 14 rockets and a thousand rounds and i could kill chargers pretty easily

but you only get a single one per mission, no timer or anything, if you call it thats the first and last you will have on the mission

and you cant even rearm them

so they're very expendeable, which i dont like

[foggy marsh]

wait wuuut.. you cant rearm?

1 per mission i get like the laser

but no rearm?

should be allowed through the use of backpack or.. something..

[torn kernel]

Is there server problems it wont let me connect

[orchid zinc]

Ya

[wild venture]

laser has like 3 uses

for some reason

but i rather use the railcannon rounds

instakills anything at any difficulty

[wild venture]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jpR-jCJbt4I

[eager yarrow]

Get the scout armour on page ~7 (IIRC) which has 30% smaller detection radius. Enemies have to basically be hugging you if you're prone to detect you

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I0gNVyMXndU @wild venture

Playing at night also reduces enemy detection

As well as certain weather effects IIRC

^ these 2 facts are confirmed by a loading tip ingame

CEO / Creative director also namedropped subsonic ammo and suppressors in late feb

[wild venture]

if they remove the patrol that is designed to find you, hell yea

[eager yarrow]

Come play a few rounds with me bro and you'll learn how to avoid all of them pretty easily

[wild venture]

in that case
now?

[eager yarrow]

ye im in atm

[wild venture]

voice room 1?

[eager yarrow]

omw

[foggy marsh]

🤣

[fervent ravine]

How do you know which mission you have completed already without playing it over and over.

[harsh stag]
