[elfin lark]

God I can’t wait to stalk some bitches

Wonder if it will actually come to ps5 now

Wish they’d port the older games to console

Pc no workie for me

[charred quail]

at first I thought 6 months would be long but damn I think I'm getting old now, 6 months no longer feel like such a long time anymore

[elfin lark]

Days go by quick

[charred quail]

yeah I just think about my payday every month and time flies

[rich tundra]

🤣🤣🤣🤣

[elfin lark]

You get paid once a month?

[charred quail]

yeah

[elfin lark]

I see

[charred quail]

I'm a wage c*ck

[elfin lark]

Ain’t we all

Least it’s Wednesday today

[sacred iron]

I’ve got so much uni work and other hobbies I’m working on that I feel the same way

[charred quail]

soon we will expire

Yes, you are in your own Super Destroyer. It isn't exactly customizable, but every upgrade you make (there are like 20) changes the ship a bit. It's really cool

Mine is called Gauntlet of Gold

bug planets are rather slow and boring, robot planets are so good

bruh this week's challenges are bad

[polar wren]

Holy shit, sea of thieves may be getting multiplatform. FUCKING FINALLY

Btw rowboats are already colored and they didn't mention the other colors like purple which are on rowboats

Red is Nintendo, blue is PlayStation, green is Xbox, no idea what white is, some say egs

Sea of thieves has been an Xbox and PC exclusive for 6 years. It was about time it gets multiplatform. And this is during the season where it is the last fundamental update

[sacred iron]

I remember being really sad cause I couldn't get it at launch as it was xbox and windows 10 exclusive :(

[polar wren]

Lol, well you didn't miss out on much, apparently the game on launch day was bland

[charred quail]

underbarreled chainsaw

[high haven]

Very cool

my kdr is going to drop to zero with this attachment

[high haven]

Groovy

[charred quail]

it's hilariously bad

[austere sonnet]

Extended chainsaw when

[polar wren]

Expected

[charred quail]

I have two chainsaws

[polar wren]

If you're that close just knife them

So much faster

[charred quail]

groovy

[charred quail]

it feels like a bossfight zombie attachment

very useless in multiplayer lol

but when you kill people they explode into a red mist

[polar wren]

I can already see the cod video wildcat will make

[charred quail]

that twerp still makes video?

[austere sonnet]

Ikr?

but pog tho

[polar wren]

What's wrong with wildcat

[austere sonnet]

I mean one would expect him to idk not make any videos or make less videos

[charred quail]

I did a murder

[austere sonnet]

I mean how many of the crew are left in the funny vanoss crew

[polar wren]

He does gimmicks a lot now.

[polar wren]

I think most of them are still around, just mius a asshole and a (common Minecraft YouTuber moment) if you know what that means

[charred quail]

I just made a guy rage quit

[austere sonnet]

Isn’t it some of them now

[polar wren]

Lui is back, I was surprised by his return

[austere sonnet]

fr?

Noice

[polar wren]

Wildcat cod days are basically over, he'll play with Vanoss time to time

2019 cod was a gold mine for him

[charred quail]

he had a shit take on indie games last year, then started to show his wealth as a "gotcha"

[polar wren]

Who doesn't show their wealth

[charred quail]

basically "indie games suck ass, AAA games are where it's at", got called out by people for being a dumbass, "Here is my expensive car, fuck you"

he then deleted everything iirc

lol

[polar wren]

Lmao, at least he backtracked that dumbass take

That's a xqc moment

Honestly I do love him getting angry and talking shit to the enemy team

Oh there is another member that is done ish, and it's moo. Apparently he's getting off the YouTuber grind and would be uploading way less.

[polar wren]

No idea atm

The patch notes aren't released yet

[polar wren]

Seems like the update is a bit incomplete from doing a bit of research

Yeah the omega expedition

Actually the expedition is not out just yet

Apparently, FFVII Rebirth will not be accessible before the official launch.

Usually, physical copies don't have restrictions, but this sounds like all versions of the game might be affected.

Not sure when we will get our copies, so please share your findings, when you get it.

More games should do this, less spoilers prior to launch

lol

[rapid summit]

Once the vehicles and mechs arrived in helldivers 2 I can finally go faster while traveling on the map and kill those space bugs easily

[polar wren]

Well they gotta release it before mid/late 2025

[polar wren]

Is that confirmed

[rapid summit]

They will add the vehicles and mech later depending on the date

[polar wren]

Honestly I'm fine if they make it not to op. Make it where you can still get overrun

[stiff panther]

yeah that's what i said too

but after enough experience with the game , plus insight from a friend who played the first, vehicles will be a good AND fair addition 🙂

im really excited

[polar wren]

Wait is helldiver's map randomly generated

[polar wren]

Finally completed 400 missions in drg

With each dwarf having 100 missions completed

[dim trench]

helldivers 2 is ever so much delight

[lost kelp]

Hey you are back

Been a while

[polar wren]

My interest in helldivers 2 will go up if the maps are procedurally generated

[charred quail]

they are, sort of

it's like starfield, procedural maps with set POIs

[dim trench]

noticed alot of the maps are the same, at least building wise. such as the ones where you gotta do the radar.

[dim trench]

hi hi

[dim trench]

tking in the game is annoying as hell. i keep accidentally throwing grenades since im used to G being armor in cod. but others constantly airstrike everyone

i still need to play that game. bought it years ago

[polar wren]

Oh yeah it's new player friendly now. Well better than what it was before

But god damn that song. Seriously the best iteration of row row row your boat I ever heard

[lost kelp]

Assemble of Allegiance: Dark Operations 6

[polar wren]

Man the songs in sea of thieves go so damn hard

[polar wren]

Oh and I just realized that a pirates life is a shanty but you need to complete the pirates of the Caribbean tall tales and get all the commendations

PS5 is just a Last of Us player

[random tartan]

@charred quail

[latent moat]

mfw I spend $400 million on a singleplayer game and it doesn't immediately give me returns and profit

https://www.videogameschronicle.com/news/sony-wants-to-improve-playstation-profit-margins-with-more-aggressive-pc-release-strategy/

'more aggressive' strategy on PC.

[charred quail]

didn't they sell twice as many ps5s compared to xbox's sale? and it's still not good enough for them?

lol

[latent moat]

Finally, bloodborne PC port

[latent moat]

They're talking about profit margins.

The insomniac leak revealed how damn expensive it is to make those games

$400 million for spiderman 2

The problem is that they basically have no live service stuff. That's what brings in all the money

I can see why MS has much higher profit margins because they have more than 7 live service games raking in all that cash

I mean they have COD, WoW and Candy Crush now. Literal money printers

Sony doesn't really have a game like that

[random tartan]

Halo infinite is a live service game

[random tartan]

So much money into a game. But it’s only good for 2 full play through before deleting it

At most. Single player games for me tend to only last 1 play through. Rare if a second one.

[charred quail]

mid-man 2

remake last of us once more time

[latent moat]

Yeah, I can see why they're starting to dripfeed content like NG+ now

Stuff that should be available at launch

[charred quail]

lol, ng+ and a few cosmetic suits that do nothing else

[random tartan]

Facts

[charred quail]

in spiderman 1 the suits have special powers

[random tartan]

At least a month later.

[latent moat]

They claimed that ng+ wasn't ready yet

But the leaked build has a fully working ng+

And replayable missions. No excuse

[charred quail]

[random tartan]

They wanted to drop it months later so say it blew up again set of dying so quick after it dropped

[latent moat]

No wonder they brought on Bungie

But that isn't working out that well for them either right now

[random tartan]

Single player games is iconic but they don’t keep your company alive for long term. Only short term

[latent moat]

Halo Infinite, Forza Horizon 5 and Motorsport, Sea of Thieves, Grounded, Elder Scrolls online, Fallout 76. And now COD, WoW, Overwatch and Candy Crush

Xbox is absolutely losing in terms of console sales. Third of what Sony is selling

But having so many live service stuff and a literal addictive mobile game under you doesn't make it matter much from what I've seen.

So that's why they don't want to do exclusives anymore I guess

[random tartan]

Remastering a game or remaking a game tend to be more trash. Especially if it’s the same exact game. RE remastered did amazing. LoU remake is literally saying. I’m starving for money but I know people will buy the same game with minor update.

[latent moat]

4 years and ND are only now starting production on a new game

Cancelled factions, but from what I've seen they really didn't want to make it

Ryan was right in trying to get alot of live service stuff up and running but the problem is that basically none of their studios is used to that. They've been making singleplayer only stuff for the past 2 decades

Idk why they're hands off with Bungie

Fire the management, they're actively making Destiny worse

[random tartan]

Microsoft always been for the people compared to Sony. Exclusivity is cool but also lack income. Since it’s not on multiple platforms. Xbox spread to PC since windows is already Microsoft. Other hand, Sony takes them ages to make a PC port due to Exclusive deal to stay on PS first before anything.

Ngl, most of PS exclusive games is pure meh. It looks cool but not worth 400 million dollars to make it last up to 48 hr playtime worth.

[latent moat]

Yeah, they keep on making hyper-realistic open-world games with so many objectives on the map that only 1% of players will ever do all and fully platinum the game

[random tartan]

Is most of their money just polishing up a pixel at a time or what. That’s just purely insane

[latent moat]

Sony in the PS3 times made super experimental and unique stuff. Games that weren't expensive to make much but they still turned around a huge profit

Now it's all hyper-realistic walking simulators

[random tartan]

lol

[charred quail]

days gone flopped, horizon flopped

[latent moat]

They need a game like Hi-Fi Rush

[charred quail]

Hi-Fi Rush is coming to playstation I think, might revive the platform

[random tartan]

Days gone is ok but the story based only concept isn’t it. It should be a state of decay alike tbh

[latent moat]

But I guess their gamers are conditioned to the same plain-looking games for the past decade which is why they're not making actual eye-catching games anymore

[charred quail]

omg, and Stellar Blade, listen you guys they have Stellar Blade a 11/10 kino masterpiece

[latent moat]

Basically confirmed. People datamined Playstation and switch shirts

[charred quail]

stellar blade will save playstation fr fr

it will get all the incels to buy a console

[latent moat]

https://www.gamesradar.com/stellar-blade-dev-also-known-for-butt-jiggling-game-nikke-says-he-put-special-attention-into-the-female-leads-back-because-thats-what-players-see-most-of-the-time/

[random tartan]

Bruh

[latent moat]

Stellar Blade dev, also known for butt-jiggling game Nikke, says he "put special attention" into the female lead's back because that's what players see most of the time

I wonder how well that game will do

[charred quail]

actual incel moment ngl

[random tartan]

The dev isn’t wrong

[charred quail]

fired devs because they didn't want to rely on lewdness to boost sales

[random tartan]

So you’re saying. Stellar Blade is a Butt Jiggle simulator

[charred quail]

iirc it's the CEO who said it, he has fired people who didn't want to make the character's ass the main focus

devs are probably working with a lease round their neck

[latent moat]

[random tartan]

Wtf 😳

[charred quail]

yeah, and gamers love this game already, because the CEO fired feminist devs, and wants to make jiggly ass

[random tartan]

Hopefully it’s didn’t cost them 400 million usd to make it. That will be really depressing

I’m just saying. I can’t wait till the day, people will stop investing into consoles. Since PC have both console exclusives, free online and more.

PC Master Race on top

[charred quail]

just turn mini-pc into consoles

I would get a ps or xbox if I could also do other things on them besides just playing video games

and watch movies

[summer furnace]

Won't happen since consoles are practical to use, that's arguably a bigger reason than exclusives

[latent moat]

https://www.ign.com/articles/sony-says-big-ps5-price-cut-would-be-very-difficult

Damn, that bad

[random tartan]

Yea yea yea, ease of use. Ez pack up and go.

[random tartan]

I like how Xbox never did a price cut and they still do good 😌

PlayStation is starving rn

[rich tundra]

It's not possible because you can't get 4k 30 in the price of ps

[random tartan]

4k isn’t that bad of a need for gaming unless you actually want to put money into it.

4k gaming latency makes me wanna throw up 🤮

[rich tundra]

That's a valid reason

But console has its market

It's less complicated

[random tartan]

Consoles is cheap but also eats your money quick.

[summer furnace]

Well so be it. Rather spend more for conveniency

[rich tundra]

Same situation with pc man but at least it doesn't require online subscription

[random tartan]

Consoles is always GPU generation or two behind PC. lol. But yet 2080 still keeps up to today’s gaming at 1080p. Which is actually insane.

[summer furnace]

They have to target a $500 standard

[rich tundra]

Remember the launch price of 2080

2080 was an expensive card

[random tartan]

You can easily make a good cheap pc and run better than console

The problem is that consoles players don’t know what they are looking for PC gaming as in specs and stuff.

[charred quail]

console would do well for gaming if console makers would stop forcing devs to make games for their last-gen platforms

[random tartan]

Facts. That’s across the board.

[charred quail]

cyberpunk on ps4

[summer furnace]

I agree too. Won't actually mind having less on the ps4 I use now

[random tartan]

If a game isn’t that intense, sure. If it’s a 2042, cut last gen and make players buy the new gen

[charred quail]

you going to upgrade to ps5?

or are you waiting for the ps5 pro

[summer furnace]

Not yet but I find it better in long term

[summer furnace]

I'm not sure I can wait until November because tekken 8 launched this January

Already pre ordered it on ps app though

So only the console is left

[random tartan]

Isn’t PS5 pro is just minor upgrades to the standard PS5

[rich tundra]

Nope you can't do 4k 30 with that amount

[random tartan]

I only saw minor differences and upgrades by looking at leaked specs

[random tartan]

4k gaming isn’t the standard rn. 2k is the standard. 1080p is the baseline.

[charred quail]

I think they will at least use rdna 3 chips in the next playstation

[rich tundra]

I want to play God of war in 4k native 30 fps you just can't do that

[charred quail]

helldivers 2 is made for the ps5, it only has fsr 2 and it's blurry as shit on pc

[rich tundra]

With pc

[charred quail]

I have to turn fsr 2 off

[random tartan]

4k gaming is only good unless you put money into a PC, trash on console

[summer furnace]

Bigger storage again for sure

[summer furnace]

1440p is unequal to 1080p though

https://youtu.be/QZdCeY23pTk?si=rKnwQJ_a17hSAiD0

@rich tundra

[rich tundra]

Will be waiting for its pc port

I am a pc player myself but I can understand why consoles are still popular

[charred quail]

they are definitely easier to get into

building a pc is stressful for first timers

most people don't have the time to invest into a pc

North London or South London

[lost kelp]

Finally i can play my Cinematic Slop on XBOX

[random tartan]

PlayStation is just down bad right now. It’s actually hilarious. They are making live service games set of focusing on single player games. Isn’t making games for a year. PS5 prices got cut down. What’s next on the list? Everything Xbox is doing. PlayStation is just copying them.

[summer furnace]

Instead second party exclusives come this year and early 2025

And maybe a new ip concord

[spark oxide]

i'm not in London

[spark oxide]

just a lil' pub, yunno

overall a decent game

[charred quail]

it's pretty good

challenging too

[tribal crypt]

man people always ruin the snipers only mode

here i thought people wouldnt be punching the shit out of me

but most people are

or just using the longbow

Womp womp.

I'm still hesitant on getting helldivers 2. I have been on an inde streak for a while and I just don't trust bigger companies. Is the replayability promising

Bruh, nah ok. Have y'all seen the update for overwatch 2

Like this is a game made by a huge company

And they fucked the hitboxes

Are these devs even experienced

It's like you are using the huntsman hitboxes from TF2 but with all the weapons

[austere sonnet]

They don’t make games like they used to anymore

[polar wren]

Lmao they just made Hanzo into the actual TF2 huntsman

Aka Lucksman

[charred quail]

did they buff him

should I play overwatch again

[polar wren]

I mean do it before they revert the terrible change they did.

[elfin lark]

Lol no simple fix?

[polar wren]

Like it's so bad that you can get headshots by aiming way above the head

[elfin lark]

Hmm if only we could fix this but I can’t possibly think of what to do

[charred quail]

make the heads bigger so now they fit the new hitbox

[shut wigeon]

Should I get the dlc ?

I liked the base game tbh

[random tartan]

They said star field won’t be one of them

Mid gen series S and X refresh. And future but next gen upgrade consoles in the future. Mmm 🤔 I wonder how big of a performance leap it’s gonna be

[summer furnace]

Ugh series s again

[random tartan]

The consoles is leaked to have a refresh this year

[next rapids]

more shit games

they need to drop the series s, waste of time for devs

[random tartan]

2028 or some time later is gonna be newer better consoles

[latent moat]

yes waste of time for devs but for the consumer it's great

[random tartan]

Series S is mainly for cloud gaming and non heavy games.

Xbox strategy is actually amazing. Phill is a very smart man.

[next rapids]

didn't know anyone actually used cloud gaming

[random tartan]

A shit ton of people uses cloud gaming

It getting better due to more games being put on it

Cloud gaming is also on Samsung smart tvs and multiple platforms. Not just the Xbox console itself

[random tartan]

A lot of players enjoy series s due to its being cheaper and smaller. It’s very good for pack and play/traveling.

[summer furnace]

No discless series x then

[random tartan]

I rather have a series X in general. But no point on having it since I have a PC

I might buy an Xbox again in the future when the newer gen comes out.

yoooo

[polar wren]

Honestly not a fan. Reminds me of this

And honestly who's going to appreciate the detail ingame

[charred quail]

it reminds me of Annihilation

[polar wren]

I hate when they put effort in skins where you can't see the entire thing

[charred quail]

which is a great movie

[polar wren]

Like looking at the details, ain't nobody looking at them in game.

It would be better as a Fortnite skin as you can appreciate those with the 3rd person camera

Also that cannon skin is ass.

It's those cannons that are borderline unusable in combat

[spark oxide]

awful

[charred quail]

slanderous

[spark oxide]

Now that’s a perfect Mario

Mario Mario and Luigi Mario are the best ones in that movie

[charred quail]

he was hired to voice a character in the Mario movie but it wasn't for Mario

[austere sonnet]

https://tenor.com/view/mario-do-the-mario-super-mario-bros-gif-4965815

Another good Mario bros

a shame it was only for the ending

[next rapids]

very useful

[charred quail]

this is so fucking lame

how is this a sony-funded game come on

[polar wren]

Lmao

Totally waiting a good while before being interested in helldivers 2

I'ma go and continue my no man sky expedition

[latent moat]

I mean they're a tiny studio

But still they really cheaped out on something like this

[charred quail]

game is published by Sony tho

they have "fuck you" money

[latent moat]

It's clearly not enough "fuck you" money then

[charred quail]

literally zero reason to limit the amount of people playing, instead of just renting more servers

[latent moat]

[charred quail]

this is the best selling sony game on pc

yet they are treating it like ass

lol just now they've broken match making

people who can log-in cannot queue

[latent moat]

https://insider-gaming.com/star-wars-mandalorian-game/

I was too high on copium to want a Republic commando remake

[polar wren]

Guess the thing that drg does better than helldivers 2 is having peer to peer servers

We host that shit ourselves

[charred quail]

yeah sony doesn't want you to farm the in-game currency so they force a kernel anti-cheat, this always online bullshit

[dense ore]

https://www.reddit.com/r/Battlefield/comments/1asf3rs/can_love_bloom_on_the_battlefield_battlefield_2/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3

[polar wren]

Fucking hate only online

I'ma put drg above helldivers 2 just because of their only online bullshit and server limit

Like peer to peer servers are fucking goated

[charred quail]

they haven't been able to get the servers working properly and their discord is sucking them off like they are doing nothing wrong

they are no longer an indie studio

jesus christ

the game is good sure, but people can't play it

[polar wren]

Seriously make the servers peer to peer and you just saved your game

[charred quail]

can't sell mtx safely that way

[polar wren]

Honestly big mistake to have that

Not even triple A can topple the king of coop extraction shooters drg

It's a good game, it almost brought my attention back to triple A

But of course like every triple A it has noticeable red flags

I do love the fact you can technically get nearly everything for free by grinding

But server issues, and online only kills it

[charred quail]

lmao finally able to log in and the moment I found a lobby the game crashed

[polar wren]

Bruh

[rapid summit]

Grinding in helldivers 2 and only reach level 9

[charred quail]

oh wow so the upscaler in helldivers 2 isn't fsr 2

it's fsr 1

...

why

[polar wren]

The no man sky expedition seems easy tbh

@charred quail you got no man sky right? The expedition is for 5 ish weeks. You going to be doing it?

[charred quail]

nah lol

I haven't played it in a while

[polar wren]

How long ago is that

[charred quail]

half a year I think

[random tartan]

I’m surprised i never experienced crashing on HD2

[charred quail]

been crashing a few times now

[elfin lark]

Skill issue

[charred quail]

this dickhead glitched his turret into the ground and it did a 360 spin and chopped off all of our legs

[random tartan]

At most I experience stuttering but that’s rare

[charred quail]

you gonna buy helldivers 2 bro?

[elfin lark]

Prolly not

Can’t say I’ve been all that interested in gaming lately

[random tartan]

It’s always nice to have a break

[elfin lark]

Aye been playing some minecraft with a friend but that’s pretty much it

Played a tad bit of hunt showdown last week

[charred quail]

no stutering for me, when the game freezes it just crashes lol

[random tartan]

Yea freezing my bad, not stuttering

[charred quail]

we are losing rapidly on the robot side but there are 250k people playing with bugs

lmao

literally will lose this planet in under 3 hours

[random tartan]

For me it happens once every so often. But it’s just rare for me in general. One time I died due to freezing

Ngl, I wish the game have DLSS. The game’s upscale is meh

[charred quail]

it's a copy of fsr 1

it's literally the most basic upscaler

it's awful

I have it turned off because it's so blurry

[random tartan]

FSR 1 oof, that’s depressing

[vital ingot]

Can someone who plays helldriver 2 explain what is it about briefly

[rapid summit]

We need armored vehicles like tanks and mechs to destroy those robots and aliens bugs in helldivers 2

[charred quail]

god the helldivers discord is terrible, 5-min timeout after every messages so you can't even have a normal, regular-ass conversation

[charred quail]

third person shooter with lots of explosions

[rapid summit]

I need a mech in helldivers 2 that feels like you’re playing titanfall

[charred quail]

people bitching about the defense missions in the hd discord is literally skill issue

[random tartan]

All I wish for is PvP in HD2 😢 (sadly it won’t come)

[charred quail]

it seems like they don't know what to do

[rapid summit]

They posted the update yesterday about adding PVP in helldivers 2, they said they won’t

[random tartan]

pepeSAD

[charred quail]

I just finished a match and a level 25 guy in the lobby didn't know that we have to press the button to spawn the civilians

[random tartan]

Bruh, current generation of gamers nowadays

[charred quail]

yeah they just tried to fight the robots tirelessly

I was the only person with light armor, running around spawning the npcs

[random tartan]

Ngl, light armor with 2 sec stim duration boost and extra stims. Is top tier

[charred quail]

yeah light armor is meta now

because robot bullets don't care about your armor rating

so might as well get the movement speed

[random tartan]

Heavy armor feels weak. And med arm is mid

They both need a buff

[charred quail]

med arm has the 50% chance to not die armor which is okay, heavy armor is only good against melee from bugs

armor rating is bugged right now

all types of armor can tank 5 shots from the weakest robot

[random tartan]

Ngl, if med arm have stim boost like light arm. I won’t do light arm.

[stiff panther]

third person shooter game with a diverse set of enemies on two factions. you have special call ins from your own destroyer hovering in orbit, such as airstrikes or special weapons or sentry turrets

lots of explosions and gore

its awesome

[charred quail]

it does

[random tartan]

Mmm 🤔 I haven’t seen it yet

[charred quail]

the twitch drop one and the one you get from the first or 2nd page of the battlepass has it

god the amount of people crying about the defense mission is crazy looool

[random tartan]

Is twitch drops still active?

[charred quail]

I think so

[random tartan]

Imma watch a stream then

[charred quail]

or you can just get the warbond one

[random tartan]

Free is free lol

[stiff panther]

get both

[tranquil gull]

I mean to be fair those defense missions are absolutely hard as hell

[timid kindle]

Ps6 cop

[charred quail]

bring in smoke and emp and speedrun it before they drop in the hulks

[rapid summit]

Before skull and bones release I went back playing AC4 black flag to fight, steal golds, and sink ships... also the legendary ships I only destroyed two of them and keep the other 2/3 ships as my play toy

[dim trench]

guess i'll play some DMZ since helldivers2 wont let me fight for liberty and freedom

and DEMOCRACY

https://tenor.com/view/helldivers-helldivers-2-super-earth-headbump-gif-12660803786990557505

[ripe pike]

Best AC game ever made

It deserves a remake

[charred quail]

they pushed a patch to fix the matchmaking, and it broke the matchmaking

...

[charred quail]

what is bro doing

[tribal crypt]

his best

[charred quail]

how is he still alive after an hour lmao

[merry hearth]

A whole hour without stratagems must be hell

[merry hearth]

This applies to both TF2's

[mighty umbra]

Titanfall 2 is the fps goat,

[merry hearth]

TF2🤝TF2

[merry hearth]

So they fixed the rewards bug for helldivers and here's what I got:
$4,657 -> $16,741
18 medals -> 36 medals
34 common samples -> 112 common samples
24 rare samples -> 72 rare samples
150 super creds -> 190 super creds
Lvl 10 -> Lvl 12

[spark oxide]

i love that in the first raiding mission you can make your ship so damn OP by ransacking a bunch of Brigs instead of Schooners and it carries you well into the late game

progression pacing flaw

i do it everytime

get hundreds of metal and wood

[high haven]

So uhh, super citzen of standard for hell divers ?

[charred quail]

what

[high haven]

Le edition to get ;D

[charred quail]

up to you, the super citizen edition gives you the first premium battlepass and some armor sets

[high haven]

Oh that's neat

[stiff panther]

I wouldn't recommend getting the special edition

way overpriced for what you get

[high haven]

That's not neat

Okay standard it is, in crafter i trust

[rapid summit]

Last year they announced remaking AC4 black flag, however not only I want a remake but I also want new contents they didn’t add in the original and rework the game as well like new animations @ripe pike

[hushed juniper]

https://tenor.com/view/helldivers-2-gif-15121550314159891789

[charred quail]

urgh just lost connection right after we finished the main objective

this is fucking awful

[hushed juniper]

gonna buy the game todya

watched my brother playing looks hella fun

[charred quail]

it's really fun when it works

[charred quail]

btw can you take a look at general

there's a guy roleplaying that Austrian fella

[hushed juniper]

done thanks for letting me know :>

[charred quail]

[rapid summit]

Better hurry I’m already level 10 in helldivers 2 and the vehicles and mechs they will add it later date

[hushed juniper]

Iam buying it today, just need to do something first

[charred quail]

wanna play together uwu

[rapid summit]

Not right now I need to buy the other game such as skull and bones

[charred quail]

https://tenor.com/view/clint-eastwood-gross-disgust-gif-13789077

[timid kindle]

Sussy bunka

[charred quail]

god this fucking game

just won't stop having problems

[nocturne badge]

Yeah I've had a few problems playing it but it's a lot of fun tbh

[charred quail]

I think I will just stick to playing against bugs for now

I only get disconnects playing bot missions

[rapid summit]

Better wait until they patch helldivers 2 I ran into those problems

[merry hearth]

Even then though, it cost less then full priced games

I bought just because but it gives you an ok medium armor set, a not so good gun, and access to the premium pass where on the other hand you'd have to grind for weeks

[charred quail]

server is at capacity

https://tenor.com/view/wojak-doomer-gif-25753254

[merry hearth]

Sounds like a pc issue
laughs in matchmaking problems and reward issues

[polar wren]

This discussion is still going, it has nearly 100 pages of comments

Like god damn

[high haven]

blizzard is on steam?

[polar wren]

Trolls quit before their big take

[polar wren]

This was when OW2 released on steam

[high haven]

ah!

[polar wren]

And got the most negative reviews of any game

[high haven]

now i remember

[polar wren]

And still sits at overwhelming negative for all reviews

It recently hit mostly negative

[fiery oxide]

lol really

[polar wren]

When it released yeah

[fiery oxide]

overwatch fan?

[polar wren]

Nope

[sacred iron]

It was funny seeing it instantly drop below even the rubbish that can come from recently released

Regarding helldivers, the game looks great but I’ve found so many times I’d get something with my mates and then never touch it again after that first week

I am a huge drg fanboy but I know that’s still bound to happen

[charred quail]

I will give up on it if they can't fix the server problems soon

[tribal crypt]

https://tenor.com/view/monkey-laptop-mad-push-throw-gif-21934538

[merry hearth]

I won't

[rapid summit]

I need to buy this skin for Mei in OW2

[merry hearth]

It's a massively popular live service game, likely more than they expected. I'm giving them time and having patience bc I know they're working hard on fixing any issues

[charred quail]

I don't have spare patience

it's Sony, this shouldn't be a problem in the first place

game is fun but it doesn't matter when you can't even play it

[tribal crypt]

Sony cant afford more server capacity

[charred quail]

yeah, it's wild when they decide to add a log-in limit instead of you know, getting more servers

with the billions they have

this is their best selling game, what the fuck are they doing

[merry hearth]

Sony is just the publisher of helldivers 2. Arrowhead Game Studios is the creator of the game and in pretty its their own servers being used and not Sonys

They're not a big company and weren't prepared for how big Helldivers 2 would be so it's best to have patience with them and understand they're doing their best

[charred quail]

Sony is paying them, surely they can pay them more for the servers since they are getting a fat check from the sales of this game

it's literally the job of a publisher

[merry hearth]

Which is what they're currently working towards

[dim trench]

Helldivers2 is p2p game servers fight? So not sure why they’re having so much issue

[merry hearth]

Yes but they still need a place to hold all that online play and game data

With over 200k people on steam alone, that's a lot of space

[dim trench]

200k means at least $5million dollars. Should be able to figure it out

[charred quail]

they can, they just won't

[dim trench]

Ea should donate some of their unused severs lolololol

I tried to add $5 from steam wallet to buy helmet to match the armor I bought but kept failing. Prolly be too late tonight when I get off work

I’m not too worried cuz all helmets look good with all armor

[charred quail]

over a millions in sales on both platforms now

so it's a lot of money

[tribal crypt]

200k active doesnt mean that theres only 200k people that bought it

[charred quail]

every day they push a patch to "fix" the servers, which fixes nothing

[dim trench]

They won’t get to r money for a month or so, not sure how steam works . But surely they can get a loan

[charred quail]

the max number of players their servers can handle right now is 360k players

...

[charred quail]

the majority of sales is on Playstation

[tribal crypt]

Sony has money to buy more server capacity

[charred quail]

yeah, literally their job as the publisher

[tribal crypt]

but they simply arent

[charred quail]

they are scared to pay up now because they don't trust the player retention

[tribal crypt]

theyre fumbling the bag

[hushed juniper]

fixing server issue by adding a log-in queue isn't fixing it

[hushed juniper]

https://fxtwitter.com/blasianBronson/status/1758686393394754043

[charred quail]

they have disabled the live player count on the in-game map, I guess to take away a bit of stress from the servers

[merry shadow]

Sony making the game this weekend for everyone with playstation plus free doesn’t help much either…

[hushed juniper]

I want to have Voodoo People on loop while playing it

[dim trench]

This won’t help retain it. I’m already tired of trying to get on. Unless they keep content up, the player base will get tired of the loop after a month or two, so they are right

[merry hearth]

I slap in some Freddie dredd or doom ost

[charred quail]

jesus fucking christ

[dim trench]

Many people said it’s zzzz after level 20z

[hushed juniper]

literally a fucking space crusader lmao

[charred quail]

fumbling at launch preventing people from playing the game doesn't help keeping their interest in continuing playing the game

[merry shadow]

But at lvl 20 you can finally play the game in the most optimal way aka kill shit with the railgun…

[charred quail]

my friends are level 40 already

[merry shadow]

Can actually do shit against titans that way

[merry hearth]

And at lvl 10 you can buy the flame thrower

[merry hearth]

Talk abt no lifers lmao

[merry shadow]

Im lvl 18

[merry hearth]

I'm only lvl 12

[charred quail]

I'm level 13 because I can barely play

20 hours in-game, most of them are just crashes and disconnects

[merry shadow]

Could have been 22-23 if the game didn’t break every time it gets a bit more busy

[merry hearth]

I might be lvl 15 if I didn't crash a few times mid game

[charred quail]

found this on twitter

[dim trench]

Lolol

I finally bought the attack dog last night. So helpful. Was about to buy the other one but haven’t been able to connect

Since

I think us super citizens should get server priority over the commoners

Community isn’t going for it

[stiff panther]

so.. a new form of pay to win

lol

monetize access to the game

should never happen

[dim trench]

Battlefield used to do it. Not sure if they still do. Premium always got in first

[stiff panther]

it's a bit different when it's an individual server vs the entire game

[next rapids]

crazy that so many people actively want to make the game worse

[dim trench]

Same thing .

[stiff panther]

no.. it's not

[dim trench]

How do? Premium got server priority and super citizen would get priority.

[stiff panther]

premium members just got to be in a queue for an individual server

helldivers players can not play the game, at all

while a BF player can just.. go find another server

[next rapids]

premium citizens getting priority could mean tens of thousands of people are just unable to get in the game because someone else paid more

[dim trench]

Make supper citizen only severs then.

And ones for everybody

[stiff panther]

[dim trench]

https://tenor.com/view/helldiver-helldivers-helldivers2-chestbump-flag-gif-2708234001444907997

[merry hearth]

I mean like, I paid for super citizen so it'd be pretty cool Ngl

Despite me not having any server issues or problems getting In lol

[dim trench]

Are servers regional? Where r u?

I’m often paired with Asians tho. I’m N.A.

[merry hearth]

NA

I'm honestly not sure why I don't get any server issues. I was put in a cue once, left for like 10/20 minutes, and was able to get back in immediately

Otherwise is was just basic connection issues like not being able to get in a match sometimes

[merry hearth]

https://tenor.com/view/helldivers-epic-homies-gif-14260810489516145005

[dim trench]

Dang

[merry hearth]

It might be a platform thing. It's just a theory but there tons more players on pc than ps5 I think and they might have separate servers to host data or players

[dim trench]

Hello Divers!
Earlier tonight we had server related issues with a concurrent player spike. This lead to some mission payouts failing, some players being kicked to their ships, or being logged out.
Our team is working around the clock to solve these issues. While we've been able to mitigate some of the causes, we are still struggling to keep up with the scaling that is needed to accommodate all our Helldivers.

Therefore we've had to cap our concurrent players to around 450,000 to further improve server stability. We will continue to work with our partners to get the ceiling raised.
If you have progression related issues, please restart the game in order for things to sync back up. Thank you for your continued patience.

/Your dedicated team over at Arrowhead “

[austere sonnet]

He did said divers

helldivers given the context

[empty ivy]

That's a scummy as fuck idea.

[latent moat]

But the fans were telling me it will be a success and highly addictive

[dim trench]

Just call it premium priority queue

[empty ivy]

No.

Premium queue was obnoxious as fuck as well.

And even in that argument it's not like you had actual priority logging into servers.

[dim trench]

home from work finally. hopefully it lets me buy that helmet!

[elfin lark]

Is helldiver gonna be the new game where you buy a shit ton of cosmetics for you?

[dim trench]

we used to play dmz together.

[dim trench]

hopefully

[elfin lark]

I see

[timid kindle]

Ik

[elfin lark]

Suppose mw3 killing dmz forced you to change eh

[timid kindle]

But now we got mw3

Aka mw6

No dmz

I haven’t played in soooooooooo long

Waiting to get my ps5

[dim trench]

womp womp servers at capacity. i guess trhe devs just dont wanna work on the weekends

[timid kindle]

Why you leave the server

[dim trench]

i come and go. vagabond.

helldivers doesnt evenwork with shadowplay half the time

oooooh it let me in

even let me add funds

lets me in but wotn find any games. so gotta play solo 😦

[tranquil gull]

Turn crossplay off. Heard that works.

[dim trench]

turned that off days ago. helps with failed connections.

but now it doesnt even find matches to connect to

was doing this last night when it finally let me on too

my guard dog has killed me twice so far lol

called me a traitor and killed me ?

[timid kindle]

Yeth

[high haven]

This is may sound genius now, but then they fixed the server capacity or the playerbase settles down Nd then people complain it's an useless perk as the deluxe edition of bfv.

Plus yeah dumb idea to make it pay to enter. So far they seem pretty nice with mtx though

[dim trench]

pay more = play more

How is it solo

[charred quail]

not as fun

matchmaking is still broken

I feel like you need at least a team of 3 to get the most fun out of it

[charred quail]

space marine 2 in 6 months

[sacred iron]

Might take some convincing to get my friends on it then

We’ve gotten so many games we hoped we’d all play for a long while and just put them down after

[charred quail]

if quickplay works you don't even need friends

but it doesn't work right now

[elfin lark]

But everyone hates randoms!

[charred quail]

lol if you go on their discord you will see a bunch of nerds trying to min-max this game

[sacred iron]

In a game like this I don’t think I’d enjoy randoms

Drg is such a mix already I’ve found it rather irritating at times

[stiff panther]

solo against automatons is okay-er than the terminids

[sacred iron]

What even is there to min max? I’ve got no clue what the gear system may be like

[charred quail]

they try to speedrun the mission.
low-level random joined? Kicked
they died a few times? Rage

[sacred iron]

I see

I try to play drg with speed and efficiency in mind, but kicking people who don’t align with that when matchmaking is random is just toxic

[merry hearth]

You can still get things done with a duo if you both don't suck ass lol

[charred quail]

it's not as fun

[merry hearth]

True

Sometimes you meet a good duo and have fun with them for that round but otherwise kinda suck

[merry hearth]

I honestly much prefer fighting the automatons the terminids

[ivory onyx]

also lets put in mini games for players to solve that requires cordination...but also lets not give the ability to type to others in the party so just try and make do with these quick commands

[sacred iron]

You can’t text chat?

[stiff panther]

you can

[sacred iron]

Was gonna say. I doubt they wouldn’t include that

[polar wren]

Then get friends.

[sacred iron]

The ones I have play with the same mentality, it’s just they wouldn’t want to get hd2

[charred quail]

you can text chat on pc, idk about on ps tho

most people on ps I've ran into all have their mic on at all time...

[polar wren]

Your perception is so damn weird as I connected zero with it. Randoms In drg are completely fine, they do the job and are better help than playing solo

[sacred iron]

It’s mostly the stuck up ones that sour the experience

I guess I’m just unlucky

[polar wren]

I always do randoms and never had any issues. We always go for secondaries, if there is a core event we do the core event, and we look after our teammates and focus on finishing the mission

[polar wren]

Probably

[sacred iron]

But I only touched matchmaking for like the first 5 hours then never did again

[polar wren]

It's ungodly rare to meet a toxic drg player

I only met one

One of all the hours of playing

[sacred iron]

I know the community is fantastic, but I just had a spell of bad actors

[polar wren]

I experience the very rare random dreadnought event more than toxic players

[sacred iron]

But I just like knowing what to expect when playing with friends

ok did i misunderstand this gamespot review video that popped up the other day, after all the modern AAA games launching with out text chat in recent years i thought this one was also the same

or the gamespot person was just a moron

[sacred iron]

You know what, I’ll give it another shot

[charred quail]

drg?

[polar wren]

I hope you get better luck on those randos.

[ivory onyx]

https://youtu.be/MZjHn5Hh-wc?si=-PnUXUMfhU5iPoyC&t=394 oh ok he said "the games ping system" is lacking.... but is playing the game on PC i should have suspected something was dumb here when i saw him playing with a controller

[sacred iron]

Yeah we will see

As long as they are up for some fun, aren’t incredibly rigid in playstyle but also know what the main goals are

The first time I tried servers I had several people who had some very specific pre planned method of passing the mission and since I couldn’t read their minds I got complained at

[polar wren]

Bro how do you get the worse ones

Mate just to help you, play hazard 3 for a bit. No way you get those players on hazard 3

[sacred iron]

Fair point

[polar wren]

Like all of the specific players are on hazard 5 and sometimes 4

[sacred iron]

Haz 5 is a blast

[polar wren]

Wait is that where you're getting the bad players

On hazard 5

[sacred iron]

I was doing mostly 4 at that time

[polar wren]

I'm a 3-4 hazard. I rarely meet a hazard 4 player toxic but there is some coordination.

I just follow the group mine the closest minerals and do secondaries

[sacred iron]

Yeah I’d just sort of play as if I’m solo but if my tools can directly help someone else I’ll send something their way

Ye old plat and scout

I’ve got a clip that showcases exactly how my mates play

[next rapids]

yeah turns out it's not as blue

[shut wigeon]

@austere sonnet

[sacred iron]

dwarven efficiency

[spark oxide]

450k allowed to play Helldivers 2 at any one time and you still can't get in.

[merry hearth]

I want to revise this statement, up to Diff 4 I like fighting them. Diff 5+ I prefer termininds

Automatons are so fucking annoying on Diff 5

[charred quail]

330k on pc already, I figure it's something double that on playstation since it's free now

[spark oxide]

yep

It's free now?!

I payed when I didn't have to?

[charred quail]

free weekend iirc

[spark oxide]

oh

boring

[timid kindle]

Space marine 3

[spark oxide]

need Space Marine 2 first

[merry hearth]

BROTHERS, SISTERS, AND OTHERS, WE ALL FIGHT FOR SUPER EARTH

[rough narwhal]

i dont fully get the helldivers hype

its fun, but like.. nothing crazy good

[random tartan]

when the whole team cant kill me kek

[onyx nest]

What’s your build?

[onyx nest]

Oh cool, I’ve had the same sniper load out since 2021

[random tartan]

eww sniper

[onyx nest]

It’s literally all dps too but because I have the chain killer best and nemesis I’m a glass cannon

[random tartan]

i liker sniper in PvE, not PvP

[onyx nest]

Yep it’s only for pve cause I’ve never been good at PvP in division anyway

[empty ivy]

Death mode moons are fucking terrifying.

[polar wren]

OK I fully did part 2 of the no man sky expedition

Part 3 is very close

Did somewhat of part 4

[ivory onyx]

what year is this?

[rapid summit]

Did you check it again? I just played it yesterday and it work

[polar wren]

Seriously like just make the servers peer 2 peer and everything would be better

[dim trench]

lol

finalyl let me in

[polar wren]

Oh boy I hope you didn't jinx yourself

[random tartan]

2023 still

[merry shadow]

The fun part is that it's just really chaotic, one moment you're walking around taking out some objectives, the next moment you got an army of bugs/automatons attacking from all sides. I do have to say after 20 hours it's getting a little bit stale.

[charred quail]

yup with the content it's offering now and the fact that matchmaking BARELY works

it's getting stale

[random tartan]

PvP won’t make it stale

Honestly, solo in HD2 is bad. Wish they made soloing abit easier.

[charred quail]

yeah, adding AI bots would be a good thing

[random tartan]

Not even that. It doesn’t scale like division 2

If scaling works in HD2, then it’s awful

For solo/duo/trio/4 man groups

[charred quail]

lmao the auto vaulting option in tarkov apparently cuts your FPS by about 20 frames

what a trash ass game

[spark oxide]

it needs more reward for the risk of higher difficulties, and there's barely any customisation or class system

the gameplay itself is satisfying but i don't exactly know what i'm playing for

like- what do i get?

[charred quail]

the cosmetic shop has 4 items every day which sucks lol

[spark oxide]

idc about that

rather engaging mechanics first

[charred quail]

live-service

they haven't added most of the content from helldivers 1

[spark oxide]

it needs more gun customisation and better armour choices and effects of armour choices

that should be their first change if anything

[charred quail]

the weapons have different variants, I guess that's their way of weapon customization

[spark oxide]

now that the news is out that the different armours' stats lie and that everyone actually has 100 armour making the light armour the meta rn

[charred quail]

I would like to see some weapon skins

yup

light armor is meta

or armour with extra padding if you are playing against robots

[spark oxide]

scrap it, keep it cosmetic and give us attachments and whatnot

[charred quail]

extra padding prevents insta death from the rocket devastator

[spark oxide]

literally my only criticism, the lack of reward or gameplay change as a result of no reward

[charred quail]

just a live service ting

[spark oxide]

not an excuse

fundamental gameplay flaw

[charred quail]

yeah but it is literally a live service thing

[spark oxide]

no correlation to a live service scheme

[charred quail]

they withhold contents on purpose

there are so many things missing from hd1

literally missing a whole faction

vehicles, mechs

a lot of weapons

[frank oasis]

i unlocked everything in 27 hours

currently grinding samples for ship modules

but i do hope new content is not far away

[sacred iron]

It just came out, might be waiting a while

[frank oasis]

true, safe to assume that most of the focus is on bettering the servers atm

[cosmic jackal]

Apparently there's whispers of the other faction coming later

[sacred iron]

No doubt

[frank oasis]

which is good, the game is awesome but the servers really kill the experience

[cosmic jackal]

I don't know anything about HD1 mind so IDK how significant this is

[frank oasis]

like, game crashes and can't get back in due to server capacity

that's pretty tilt inducing

[sacred iron]

Indeed. But at least you know there’s something solid underneath
