In repeat

hearty panther
#

so i dont have a lot of faith

#

also HD2 gives you 20 lives upfront to waste, its really not a big deal to die

serene bough
#

Part of me prefers they just keep to one audience

terse idol
#

Because you don't have the tools you need

#

Its not fun dying 15 times in a row

serene bough
#

I dislike when games have a split between casual v competitive

terse idol
#

And that's split across 4 players

hearty panther
#

I don't disagree that it isn't fun, but if you are dying 15 times on a 20 life system, you are probably a fucken moron out of their depth

serene bough
#

Not that hd2 is competitive

terse idol
#

Who wanted a sweaty experience

#

Like exploit

hearty panther
#

And it was SO CLOSe

hearty panther
#

Worse than that for me is that they have a very intricate damage system and none of it fucking matters anymore lmao

#

just run the Lib Pen and the RR

#

pack a GL or a Revo

#

take thermites

#

youre done

terse idol
#

Its 4 players split across 20 lives and there's a good chance especially before where you're literally gonna need to run for like 5 minutes

#

To wait for your cd

#

Because your support weapon is stuck under a mountain of things you can't kill

terse idol
#

They also broke it KEKW_ogryn

#

And then had to fix it

hearty panther
#

boy did they

terse idol
#

Bugs! Everywhere

#

Naw its okie now

hearty panther
#

its silly too because most people werent dying because their weapons were weak, they were dying because they just suck at positioning

#

and ever since they let us stim at full hp

terse idol
#

Rember when explosions could decimate enemies because every explosion damage aoe was applying to every part

hearty panther
#

you really should almost never die

terse idol
#

And that was applying to helldivers

terse idol
#

Both

#

Can be true

#

Some people are genuinely shit

hearty panther
#

most

terse idol
#

But back when the lib pen

#

Had med pen but shit damage

#

Because durability reduced damage you delt WITH THE WEAPON that was meant to deal with med armour

#

There's alot of examples

hearty panther
#

yeah and i was still completing D9s with it lmao

#

people crying at D6, idk what to say

terse idol
#

If anything I'd still point to scorcher being a top pick because of explosive damage it packed just ignoring durability

terse idol
#

Cause i was too

hearty panther
#

oh it was

terse idol
hearty panther
#

but the notion of "well only like two weapons can be high level"

#

was always fucking stupid and incorrect

terse idol
#

Partially that's why we had scorcher meta

#

Still hated some of the changes

hearty panther
#

is the Breaker Incin better than the default Breaker? Like yeah obv

#

but you can still win with those tools if you werent actually vapid

terse idol
#

Well

#

Yeah it just sucked

hearty panther
#

same shit we see in DT

terse idol
#

And like most of it was reliance in eagle strikes and planetaries

hearty panther
#

you can do whatever you want but if some idiot's opinion is always "well why would i do that instead of just using dueling sword?"

#

but then they complain that the dueling sword cops a nerf

#

yknow

#

its like yea fucking obviously it would get nerfed when all conversation circles back to admitting its the strongest fucking item in the game

terse idol
#

Like I'm with you but also, like, I'd like that every game on the market ain't sweaty and saddly hd2 was changed

hearty panther
#

but we have so many tools in HD2 to use that one single piece of your kit should NEVER be the whole answer

#

but thats where we are now

hearty panther
#

when they revealed the Revo was getting AP4

#

i left

#

i was like "oh they fucked this all up"

#

well thats not true

#

i did play the stinky gas warbond

#

and i remember feeling very bad for the enemy

#

deaf dumb and blind

#

bumping around

#

getting instantly evaporated by any piece of AT on the field

#

like mike tyson locked in a closet with dementia patients who dont even know they're stepping into a fight

queen fox
#

Hd2 should have leaned more into stratagems doing the work, not the players weapons

hearty panther
#

yes but players cried a fucking lot

#

and now here we are

queen fox
#

Lower the cd on all non-special wep stratagems

#

By like 50%

#

I should be able to fire my ships 16in guns as fast as they can reload

#

Bill me for the ammo cus capitalism

hearty panther
#

and the definite most pants-on-head insane shit to me is that they reintroduced the bugged damage models of the flame thrower, but also still buffed said flamethrower to AP4, meaning it could already achieve the thing people were using the bug to do (pierce leg armor on Chargers)

queen fox
#

No, it does not take 80 seconds to reload a 16in shell, it takes less than 30

hearty panther
#

and people said it was BETTER despite being PROVABLY WORSE

#

and thats EXACTLY WHY they did it

#

because it was appeasing people who did not have a fucking clue

terse idol
#

People hated that

#

I did too

#

Cause like

queen fox
#

They didn't tho

#

Not hard enough

terse idol
#

The whole meme about the support weapons

#

Being your primary

#

And your primary just being backup

#

Was one of the shittiest takes

#

No fucking shot bro

queen fox
#

I'm not counting weapon stratagems

terse idol
#

That shot was mocked

#

But that's what you're suggesting

hearty panther
#

too bad it drove the rest of their balance philosophy

queen fox
#

I mean every other stratagem should have way higher uptime

terse idol
#

Stratagems being on 5 fucking minute cooldowns

#

Or 10 minutes

terse idol
#

I mean

#

To an extent sure

hearty panther
#

"Hmm I think I will try this Difficulty 9 mission, it has Strategem Modifiers to make the game more difficult."
-five minutes later-
"Omg these strategem modifiers are making the game too difficult."

terse idol
#

I gotta think about tjat

#

Waiting for a cooldown

#

Is insane

#

And that can literally be more than a quarter of the entire mission

hearty panther
#

yes i too begin screaming like a chimpanzee whenever my relic is on cooldown

terse idol
#

Well

#

You can't compare darktides cds

#

Because you have ways to reduce them

#

Lol

hearty panther
#

the cooldowns in HD2 are kind of a fucking joke?

#

like they were only really awful when you had all the modifiers packed on top, which was literally the point of the modifiers

queen fox
#

As an example, orbital precision strike should have a 6 shot magazine(9 with ship upgrade) and a 30s shell reload time, for 6/9 guns on the ship reloading indibidually

terse idol
#

Not for stratagem weapons no

hearty panther
#

but now you get six uses of an eagle run before being imposed a less than two minute cooldown

#

(or more depending how many you pack)

#

and thats on a 40m match timer

terse idol
#

I mean why even bring up darktide when you know you can reduce those cds

hearty panther
#

like you have a LOT of uses of everything

terse idol
#

In hd2 you fucking can't

hearty panther
#

OPS on a 60s cooldown

terse idol
#

I don't play ops

#

I play 110mm and 380mm

hearty panther
#

yea cause the balance got so fucken blasted to shit lmao

terse idol
#

And those have enough variance in them

#

That if they miss

hearty panther
#

that an orbital precision strike

#

is weaker than your fuckign rocker launcher

terse idol
#

I'm gonna be sitting on my ass for a long time

#

Well 60s

#

Like you said

#

Lmao

queen fox
hearty panther
#

yes and you used to need that

terse idol
#

I don't want to

queen fox
#

A single 16in shell

terse idol
#

Make this more hostile than it's getting

hearty panther
#

but now your dumb Queso Cannon or RR does multiples more damage and you carry it

terse idol
#

You don't like hd2 that's fine

pastel pumice
#

I luhhh hd2

hearty panther
#

like thats the issue

terse idol
#

I mean it just sounds like ops is bad

hearty panther
#

and yes, that's the issue

terse idol
#

So you want it buffed

hearty panther
#

not that OPS is bad but everything that went on around that to lead to that point

terse idol
#

Ops was like inconsistent at best because missing it one faster moving target sucked ass

#

Hit a hulk

hearty panther
#

we're now in a universe where the OPS does 3x the damage it used to do on 30s less of a cooldown and it is WORSE than the WEAKEST Anti-Tank launcher you can carry on your back

terse idol
#

Yeah

hearty panther
#

so of course you just take a 380mm

terse idol
#

Welcome to the difficulty of balancing

#

Like

#

Man

#

Jesus

hearty panther
#

so all of the power is placed on just the Helldiver unit

queen fox
terse idol
#

Hd2 just became a game you didn't like

queen fox
#

ops and 500kg with stun grenades

terse idol
#

It's weak

hearty panther
#

and yea Hulks were not that hard to hit man

terse idol
#

Without a stun grenade

hearty panther
#

3s call in time, they move 10m a second

queen fox
hearty panther
#

do da maf

terse idol
#

And if you miss

#

Well

queen fox
#

500kg, ops and stun grenades means i can reliably take out any heavy enemy, and i can do it 3x quickly

hearty panther
#

not that it matters anyway since even the "nerfed Railgun" would fold them with one shot to the eye

queen fox
#

yeah hd2 players were whining about the wrong shit

#

they had milsim weapons for the player but not for the ship

terse idol
#

They did not want that later evidentally

queen fox
#

ship weapons are underpowered and need much lower cooldowns

#

compared to what a 16in shell falling from orbit should do, the bombardment we see is pathetic

terse idol
#

Sure

#

That's valid

queen fox
#

and they reload much faster

terse idol
queen fox
#

this was all perfected in ww2

terse idol
#

With every projectile being simulated

terse idol
#

Fucking talk about real life

hearty panther
#

granted canonically in Helldivers they start off by reloading their space-based cannons ... through the muzzle

#

as in

terse idol
#

Its a meme

hearty panther
#

float some dude out of the ship in a space suit

queen fox
#

i will talk about historical naval guns and there is nothing you can do to stop me

hearty panther
#

with an artillery shell

#

and push it down

#

which is so funny

queen fox
#

post the gif of the guy talking to the girl who is completely uninterested

hearty panther
#

which one

#

there's like twenty

queen fox
#

so 380mm and 16in shells are broadly similar in size/weight

#

reloading mechanisms for a 2-3ton bullet are complicated, but set up almost like a factory line to move powder charges and shells into the barrel. it was all done relatively effeciently and rapidly, iirc the iowa class 16in shells could fire 1 shell ever 10-15 seconds per barrel

#

they had a range of about 45 miles

#

and made a crater about 30 yards across

hearty panther
terse idol
#

That's not how super earth does it

queen fox
#

(which is like 25m for my freedom-impaired friends)

terse idol
#

I'm sorry to say

hearty panther
#

just like the playerbase, Helldivers are dumb

#

also the dudes on the bridge that we can talk to

terse idol
#

Talk about hd2 without insulting the playerbase or the devs design direction challenge level impossible

hearty panther
#

they have to be psychopaths, right

terse idol
#

No

queen fox
hearty panther
#

like they just see an endless stream of fresh recruits

queen fox
#

here is the source

hearty panther
#

and they make small talk

#

and never see them again

terse idol
#

Yeah

hearty panther
#

and do it again anyway

terse idol
#

It's super earth protocal

hearty panther
#

fuckd up

terse idol
#

You don't know rhe amount of mental gymnastics I'm willing to do to justify in-game lore

#

They're all fighting for democracy

#

Of course you make small talk for the hero's about to die

#

And then you defrost the next ones

#

Or the automated system on the ship does

hearty panther
#

oh its not even smalltalk

#

its like, the one lady bragging about shit she has done since enlisting

#

to a 19y/o

terse idol
#

Well yeah that one lady talks about her goldfish

hearty panther

who she knows is going to die with 90% certainty

Recon is ok

Recon is prob the least ammo eff lasguns

The reason why it's good is mostly because it is the best weapon to proc Infernus, which counters pus harden skin

I have trust issue with any kind of raw meat.

beef can essentially be eaten raw with no real consequences

but why would you

wanton dawn

Cuz good

remote sonnet

I do, but in small quantity. Otherwise, at least rare cook.

wanton dawn
#

Carpaccio is great

oak gorge
#

tbh the reason i don't eat much pork (especially if i haven't cooked it) is because of the literal brain worms it can give you

Seafood however, have way too many kinds of parasite.

I dont like recon

My builds are so off meta that I can't recommend anything.

i never use the shovel tbh

i'd also like to try helbore

or infantry autogun if thats the proper one to use

#

im jsut tired of knife/shotgun already

plays too much like zealot

oak gorge

well for hellbore you can essentially go toughness and shouty vet and it works pretty well without too much adjustment

infantry autoguns are cool

big headshot multiple

works great with exy stance

Every time I post my build here, I got sent to feed the Flesh Easters.

Brutal Momentum then either thunderous (which is uncanny but no weakspot needed) or perfect strike (If you run WS)

Wait, nvm, it is uncanny

Thunderous is for another weapon.

say what

so i could take hotshot and skullcrusher

So what are all the blessings that currently apply globally and not just for the weapon its on

terse idol

Instantly get agile from melee kills on bayonett

#

Swap melee

crude fiber
#

Hotshot, lethal proximity

faint beacon
#

uncanny iirc

crude fiber
#

Ye

terse idol
#

Or lord forbid the funny kill melee swap helbore charged shot

tall torrent
# faint beacon Im gonna be dead serious

because agile engagement is not coded like weapon specialist (kill made while melee/ranged weapon is in hand)

it instead works as "melee/ranged attack kill" which means helbore can use both parts of the buff on its own

#

stab a guy, ur gun gets +25% dmg for 5s

#

shoot a guy, ur bayonet and melee get +25% dmg for 5s

#

it's so simple it just works

hearty panther
#

its so fun

tall torrent
#

if weapon specialist was coded differently it would have synergized perfectly with helbore

terse idol
#

Knowledge

#

My brain is expanding

tall torrent
hearty panther
#

probably anyway

#

helbore bayonet used to suck so nobody was using it lmao

faint beacon
#

Doesn't help how Hotshot also just gives you innate 50 Cleave on weakspot hit regardless of if its Gun or Melee

tall torrent
#

it's x0.5 mass on weakspot hit

faint beacon
#

so its literally just BM for weapons that dont have BM

tall torrent
#

tooltip is wrong

faint beacon
#

STUPID AND DUMB

grand perch
#

if only agile engagement wasnt so far from survivalist 😦

hearty panther
#

shock and awe if it wasnt shit

tall torrent
#

helbore doesn't need survivalist unless u run it in havoc

grand perch
#

thats precisely what im talking about

terse idol
#

Me as I continue to bring helbore for maelstrom scab only no ammo pickups

hearty panther
#

even then you can go without tbh, depends on what the rest of your team packs

terse idol
#

Its very ammo efficient

tall torrent
#

depends on ur melee choices

wicked cedar

i don't like helbore

hearty panther

oh ok

actually

i dont think the issue is helbore

This morning I went into a game, at the very 1st section, 4 minor monstro and 1 big monstro came out... Can't do shit.

serene bough
#

Maelstrom has enough enemies, havoc has more but bloats their hp pools and hitmass

loud belfry
#

i think the game is unable to push many more enemies before it lags on even the best of the best

remote sonnet
#

I think Mael has more enemy. Havoc they are just more tanky and you are more squishy.

serene bough
#

It could definitely use a bit more density, but the havoc approach where you just dump more w/ higher HP and rely on DoTs is so boring

pastel pumice
#

Whos gonna tell him

serene bough
#

Maelstrom is the right difficulty setting where you have far more build flexibility and don't always need to play as a team 90% of the time

#

Havoc is just cc & DoT spam as you funnel enemies into a choke

#

Yeah thats much better to me

#

I hate pus armor especially

#

Yeah, why not, you get to play fast and aggressive and everyone is still able to play and kill things if they play well

#

You don't need such strict team cohesion

#

Havoc is too slow

#

Generally everything takes longer bc hp bloat for enemies and worse hp for players

hearty panther
#

its slow if you're hard crutching on Psyker bubbles for sure

serene bough
#

I.e. longer to kill and more punishing for mistakes

hearty panther
#

otherwise they arent that much longer in my experience in any way that a normal game also runs longer, ie. The team is getting constantly fucked up and downed

serene bough
#

Maelstrom is definitely not 15min on average

serene bough
#

But generally I finish maelstrom within 20-30min depending on the map and havoc was 40-50min

#

And when the meta is just spam CC and DoTs, zzzzzzzz

pastel pumice
#

Meta this...

#

Meta that..

#

You ever meta girl before?

serene bough

At any rate, the game modes have different playstyles, i just think HP bloat generally makes it feel an inferior option

Tried to do an Auric Maelstrom, just barely started the mission - crossed the first bridge - before I started DCing; the kill feed was still going so I held out because that usually means it'll restabilize, but then enemies stop moving or taking damage and my screen turns green with my character permanently walking on at a downward trajectory

I quit the game, rebooted and reconnected; everything was back to normal for exactly two seconds before I suddenly zipped 50 feet back and to the left in an L shape before falling through the ground and dying
