are you sure mission had hellbomb as a strata? sometimes it isnt
bleak patrol
It doesn't matter
Most of the time the Hellbomb appears when you need it
Even if it didn't appear in the mission stratagems
Like for example on my previous mission, where it wasn't included as a mission stratagem, but still appeared
plain bough
Yeah those missions have been fucked for a while, no hellbombs for me too
and I've used explosive strategems but those buildings are built sturdier than bunkers
bleak patrol
Good thing that Alt+F4 resets the mission without failing it 
I've noticed that the issue tends to happen when there are free stratagems to use
Like right now, when everyone gets a free jump pack
autumn talon
just eagle the grey house thingie, faster than hellbomb will ever be
bleak patrol
Too late, I closed the game

It is also a Hellbomb side objective

Look at my loadout
bleak patrol
Yeah, I'm gonna restart the mission with a 500kg
clear lintel
Soon, the missile pod might be able to as well
bleak patrol
I don't really like the idea of bringing a stratagem just to counter a possible bug
Oh, the good news is
The free jump pack now works
Yesterday it just showed up as "Unavailable"

If a charger doesn't aim for it and you occasionally look over it in case it's getting overwhelmed, Tesla is basically immortal
And lasts the whole duration
The only funny thing I have with it is that sometimes it can decide it really wants you to die
Arcs electric far beyond its range and still kill you
I almost kinda wish HMG had enough penetration to just pierce through charger leg or head armor tbh
That is ultimately its true weakness outside being swarmed
Though i guess it'd be far too strong then anyway
bitter elk
It's only issue is that it shines best if you can make some space between it and the swarm you shoot at, since being further away means less turning to switch targets at distance

obsidian flame
bleak patrol
just wanted to point out tk is about the player not the weapon
The weapon helps
And I'd also say that your teammates are more relevant to the equation than you yourself
When I'm using the Incendiary Breaker I try my best to avoid my teammates and most of the time the reason why I ignite them is not because I made an oopsie and shoot at them, but because they just didn't care to look where I am firing
There were also situations where I noticed my friend is about to enter my line of fire and he also noticed he was about to enter my line of fire. So I tried to aim somewhere else, while he tried to avoid my line of fire, which ended up with him entering my line of fire again
With Arc weapons the issue is slightly different, because they really like to just target the closest entity in their line of fire
So all it takes is one bad movement from either party
A regular weapon is more forgiving
On a more fun side of things

They fixed the exosuit killing itself too bad no one uses it anymore
ppl were just using it when it was a free strat... on one I played with wanted to use up one of their 4 slots for it
heavy heart
I'd run it in 4 mans if I had the damn thing unlocked.
Kinda same place as HMG turret
obsidian flame
even in a full squad no one I know wants to use it
me personally, I'd rather have more eagle strats
or Orbital Precision. Slow as it is to actually hit, it does a great job if you can anticipate the target's movement
or stick them with the beacon
bitter elk
Kinda same place as HMG turret
As far as I'm concerned the Gatling gun it's equipped with is weaker than the HMG sentry
But yeah I'm not certain of the mech position in term of power
Very powerful, for certain
But not quite sure it warrants the cost of opportunity
And also the downside that it carries alongside such power it brings
I might bring it more time to time to see if I can integrate it some way or another to bring better success in general for the mission
obsidian flame
It's still only a one-time use, right?
bitter elk
It's still only a one-time use, right?
Nay, that is the free one
The one we use have 2 uses
10 minutes( I think? Been a hot minute since I played) between cooldowns
obsidian flame
bitter elk
So by all means you have one mech you can, or rather need to use 10 minutes before predicted extraction time
Since most if not all mech players save their 2nd charge for extraction defense
Often best utilized to escort your team through a patrol heavy route or doing objective that spawns breaches, either way still need more field experience to really value it further
obsidian flame
Since most if not all mech players save their 2nd charge for extraction defense
I was gonna say this lol, my smoothbrain imagines it'd be better to always have an exosuit for extract
bitter elk
I was gonna say this lol, my smoothbrain imagines it'd be better to always have ...
It certainly helps since with an average operator they can almost basically solo 75% of the entirety swarm coming , and blast down any titans while they are at it
When I'm doing with my duo, I tend to let him deal with chargers
So I can focus my rockets on titans
obsidian flame
the peeps I've been playing with seem to value mobility over everything
they'd rather bring EAT17s than Recoilless, and only fast-acting stratagems
bitter elk
Of course, even on mech, hunters are an absolute priority to kill over everything else because they are the first gear to sewing chaos. Remove them from the equation and swarm is far more manageable
With Spewers on 2nd priority
obsidian flame
It's been working surprisingly well at difficulty 7
bitter elk
they'd rather bring EAT17s than Recoilless, and only fast-acting stratagems
It depends, hit n run tactic where you go in full blasting and dipping out is a strat as well definitely
Especially not having to rely on support weapon if and when you die
Ultimately depends on how the partners you work with playstyle is
I personally favour area control and defense, and like to choose things like sentries, tesla and HMG
Very satisfying when I get an autocannon on high ground pummeling shit from extreme distance
And deleting any stray patrols, covering a wide area to control
Could make a run comfortable, but ultimately it's QoL, most teams can work without the need for them
heavy heart
I swap between more mobile getups with fast strats and auto/EATs and more static with RR, turrets and the like
bitter elk
I only ever really take things like eagle airstrike and all the hit n run setup if I feel like carrying tbh
Since a perfect eagle airstrike + autocannon easily wipe heavy nest in under 10 seconds
Perfect for when I need that ego boost
Otherwise yeah sentries FTW
Fuck chargers for that very reason, hate crime Vs sentries

Joel wants us to fail
Probably. Will force people to bots.
Plus, what hero's journey is without strife?

im going to farm me greens now

Probably. Will force people to bots.
not sure why they'd want that if the MO is on the bugs
I think they just want us to fail a MO so we don't get too comfy
and/or they're working on readjusting shit
obsidian flame
and this MO is a test bed
earnest stag

the blues are coming in soon

I think they just want us to fail a MO so we don't get too comfy
I definitely agree with this.
Is good design
People will hype the player base up to retake or whatever they go with.
obsidian flame
Let's just hope it doesn't backfire and make people get FRUSTRATED because they didn't get 35 medals and quit the game
you know how today's kids are
eager cliff
Let's just hope it doesn't backfire and make people get _FRUSTRATED_ because the...
ngl this kind of orders should give more
it should give 35 per objective ngl
and yeah as i said, we've been winning so far, a shitstorm is coming
obsidian flame
the previous order was 4 planets for 50 medals
eager cliff
remember, there was 1 helldiver on Cyberstan a few days ago
obsidian flame
If this order had any chance of being completed, I think 35 would've been good.
if they didn't do that bullshit of MOing 2 planets we couldn't even access for half the duration
eager cliff
i think on Cyberstan they are fabricating those new Robot Animal Mechs
and it's gonna turn the tide for the robots soon

Pretty sure the 3d time limit on this one was due to us completing the previous one too fast
obsidian flame
very likely.
bleak patrol
If we fail, it's on us, if we win, it will only get harder
earnest stag
We need Hell Roombas with knifes or Tesla towers on them
twin perch
How
eager cliff
They must have unlocked it with the last update?
twin perch
Ok yeah no
They want to force us to lose
100%
we were winning with 120k players
at 17%

Joel is forcing the failure on us
twin perch
and we have more players and less % now
And the spawns on bots got turned up back to eleven again
My first games after the patch was pre-bs bots and it was comfy
then my follow up game a few hours later was scraping my cock on a cheese grater

Solo 7, 1 dropship call in
Solo 7 3 hours later, 3 dropship call ins
We were doing trio in the first game and they sent 2 dropships at once for the whole mission
in the other one they sent 2 with 2 people lmao
and 4 with 3
and it was guaranteed tank + hulk + 20 guys on patrol ambushing you
one patrol had like 6 RPG guys

tried playing a quick mission to do the daily order

Own a LAS-16 Sickle for home defense, since that's what Super Earth's founding fathers intended. Four Automatons break into my house. "What the devil?" As I grab my flowing cape and laser rifle. Blow a golf ball sized hole through the first bot, it's dead on the spot. Draw my LAS-7 Dagger on the second bot, miss it entirely because it's one small beam and nails the neighbors dog. I have to resort to the autocannon mounted at the top of the stairs loaded with armor-piercing rounds, "FOR SUPER EARTH" the armor-piercing round shreds two bots in the blast, the sound and extra shrapnel set off car alarms. Fix saber and charge the last terrified rapscallion. It bleeds out waiting on the SEAF to arrive since triangular saber wounds are impossible to stitch up. Just as the founding fathers intended.
obsidian flame
classic copypasta
tranquil zealot
... having tried the sickle i must say it does not feel that great
obsidian flame
I tried it last night and I kinda liked it
almost zero recoil
but the charge-up time to start firing
and the lack of hit marker to confirm whether I'm even friggin hit the target
and it overheats pretty fast if you're not in Extreme Cold
tranquil zealot
and it overheats pretty fast if you're not in Extreme Cold
this is also what i felt
bleak patrol
The fact that it doesn't fire immediately after I pull the trigger kills it for me
But I remember using it on Extreme Heat and it still overheated slower than I expected
It's still a meh gun for me, I need more bullets
obsidian flame
The fact that it doesn't fire immediately after I pull the trigger kills it for ...
yeah it's definitely a huge downside
spot an enemy
it's starting to call for backup
can't kill it fast enough
tranquil zealot
the firing delay is not that much of a problem but it didnt felt like it was killing very fast ... compared to shotguns
and its becomes worse if you dont want it to overheat
bleak patrol
So far, my favourite weapon from this WB is the Arc Shotgun
Because it's funny
And it doesn't feel like I'm wasting a primary slot on a meme weapon
Plasma Punisher is also good imo
But the projectile is slow af
And it's more of a specialized weapon than a general purpose gun
The Sickle is ok, but it'd rather take the Liberator or Lib Pen instead
Simply because they fire when I pull the trigger and not one second later
tranquil zealot
slugger and then i am debating if to use laser cannon or arc thrower
bleak patrol
And the pistol laser is... eh, it exists?
tranquil zealot
laser cannon iss fairly effective i must say
as soon as the grenade launcher pistol comes out that will be the gun
bleak patrol
I don't really see the reason why someone would take the laser pistol over any other secondary, other than maybe because of the heatsink's ability to give you infinite ammo
bleak patrol
as soon as the grenade launcher pistol comes out that will be the gun
I'm not sure how to feel about this one
I will take it if it's weaker than the regular GL
tranquil zealot
I'm not sure how to feel about this one
clearing bug holes + factories if it can do that ... then thats all i need
clear lintel
I could run the secondary gl for bug holes or whatever, save a stratagem and carry stun grenades
tranquil zealot
i enjoy using grenades against ... my enemies
clear lintel
bleak patrol
The main issue I have is
If the pistol GL is strong
Then there's no need for stratagem GL
tranquil zealot
limited ammo
clear lintel
Yeah ammo isn't like HD1 where you really needed the stratagem
tranquil zealot
dunno either there iss an abundance or ... like nothing for 6 pois
clear lintel
If it was like in the first game people wouldn't like the game as much as they do now
tranquil zealot
still dont know why we are limited to 4 people^^
bleak patrol
Because your Super Destroyer only has 4 hellpod launchers, duh
clear lintel
Yea
bleak patrol
clear lintel
And because it's a 4 player coop game
Lol
You are limited because that's the idea of developers
The game is just Helldivers 1 but bigger
tranquil zealot
but in helldivers 1 you HAD TO SHARE THE SCREEN
clear lintel
And once they add everything that 1 had and more, it'll be a lot better
clear lintel
but in helldivers 1 you HAD TO SHARE THE SCREEN
Ya but still 4 lore wise
bleak patrol
4 players is a very common number of players for co-op games
tranquil zealot
since you dont have to share the screen you can ... THROW MORE HELLDIVERS AGAINST A PROBLEM
clear lintel
Catch the drift, it's going to be 4 player forever unless a special event appears
Go to their offices and maybe scream that
They might listen to you
bleak patrol
I see no reason to have more players
tranquil zealot
higher difficulties could warrant 2 teams to work togehter^^
clear lintel
Not really
bleak patrol
higher difficulties could warrant 2 teams to work togehter^^
You can already do that
clear lintel
Helldivers 1 had the inner circle of hell
bleak patrol
Split your 4 guys into 2 teams of 2
clear lintel
That was difficulty 15
bleak patrol
clear lintel
And it was harder
tranquil zealot
i already somewhat struggle with difficulty 6 with randoms ...

Ramming speed

Well that's just the thing with playing with randoms
It's a random experience
tranquil zealot
they hinted at a levelcap increase maybe
clear lintel
Level cap or resetting like the first game
bleak patrol
I want

Well that's just the thing with playing with randoms
gonna try to find a group on the weekend when work iss less ... evil to me

clear lintel
I already did
bleak patrol
Where do I aim
clear lintel
Though it was weakened
bleak patrol
You have 5s to tell me
bleak patrol
(Signal lost)
bleak patrol
A weakened titan can be killed with a ball tickler it seems
tranquil zealot
unsure how arc thrower deals with hordes
- the team kill potential iss fairly high i think
bleak patrol
The arc can decide to just zap your friend, yes
tranquil zealot
but unlimted ammo
bleak patrol
It won't happen often if they just don't get in your line of fire
But there is a non 0% chance it will
tranquil zealot
bleak patrol
I already did
I was curious because I know you can kill a Charger with the FLAMMENWERFER if you burn his legs for a moment, and Titans are also not immune if their top armor is destroyed, but a completely healthy Titan doesn't seem to be affected
Like, yesterday one of them bugged and refused to move
So I've spent all of my canisters to try and burn it
And it didn't die
clear lintel
You probably need more canisters
bleak patrol
But it was a spicy meatball
clear lintel
You reckon it was tasty with all that scorching?
bleak patrol
I'm not sure
I think it would still be very oily
It would still be better to just turn it into E-710, to fuel out democratic campaign
clear lintel
You are right
plain bough
shriekers are supposedly a common secondary objective for the new major order
probably the consequence of the TCS

some people claim that arc weapons cause crashes - in generall it crashes more

How am i supposed to spread managed democracy
twin perch
Truly being a wildcard at this point
We hgad 16 deaths at 1 detector tower
because the hellbomb didn't want to land close
bitter elk
Lol yeah whoever designed the surfaces of the detector tower needs to eat shit
bleak patrol
Funny thing is that you can call in literally everything next to the tower
Except the hellbomb
bitter elk
That said, what I tend to do is if there's a nearby fabricator or what used to be one
I call the hellbomb nearby it's foundations
Usually works
twin perch
Except the hellbomb
Y e s
plain bough
fabricator connected to the tower, just bomb it to explode the foundation
bleak patrol
That is if the hellbomb even wants to appear in the stratagem menu
twin perch
I called 2 lasers btw
plain bough
enough bombs will destroy any problem for managed democracy
bitter elk
But yeah as mentioned, often there's a nearby fabricator by the detector tower
twin perch
Railcannon
bitter elk
Use the ground nearby them
Tend to work for me
Fuck the detector tower surfaces lol
twin perch
I fuckinge hate it tanks airstrikes
like the lab building
like
it's a 100kg bomb how are you tanking that
plain bough
it's just built different
bitter elk
Part of the reason why I bring 500kg usually lol
Since it deals with basically every resistant buildings
twin perch
I don't like bring 500kg because I like my auto aim to delete shit but
man I might just bring rail + 500kg
plain bough
500kg fart
twin perch
or 500kg + strike to fuck factories
bitter elk
Also research lab can be destroyed by normal precision orbital airstrike
Except like
U gotta french kiss that shit
5cm next to the kab
Lab
Any further away and damage dropoff means it doesn't kill it
Not that it matters because who the hell wants to play bots at this point lol
bleak patrol
500kg bomb kinda sucks, fight me
It makes a big boom that barely does anything
It has to drop precisely at the thing you want to delete
bleak patrol
And the accuracy of this thing is...
#🤖🐛🦑helldivers message
tawny herald
tbh it drops in a angle
so like, u gotta actually aim it when there's a lot of walls
bleak patrol
The drop comes directly from behind the launch place
bitter elk
500kg bomb kinda sucks, fight me
Mentioned before but yeah I just treat it like a slightly stronger precision strike
bleak patrol
Unlike airstrikes that come from the side
bitter elk
If it couldn't one shot bile titans
bleak patrol
Which is why they are infinitely better
bitter elk
It'd be far lower the use list for me
tawny herald
it can but has to be on top of it
bitter elk
But for now it at least has that use case.
tawny herald
if the damage drop off wasnt so bad it would be way better
bleak patrol
Don't get too ahead of yourself with that "one-shot bile titans" thing
bleak patrol
It will only do that if the titan is directly above it or the bomb gets stuck in the titan
tawny herald
thats literally what I said
bitter elk
Even if it didn't land directly on its body, I personally found it has been able to kill the titan nonetheless 85% of the time though
So long as it lands directly under within its body range
Even scoring double kills at times for titans
Still, I found it to be consistent enough that I favour it for that use case
Especially with the stun nades at the moment
Since they can lock the titans in place
bleak patrol
Ok, guys, I have an idea
tawny herald
its a lot easier when there's no modifier on the drop time for strats
bitter elk
I mean that used to be the case, yes
bleak patrol
A Stratagem that calls in the Pelican to provide fire support for a moment
bitter elk
But again, stun nades exist now
tawny herald
didnt everyone had that idea by now
bitter elk
Also I tend to just avoid increased arrival time
Cause that shit sucks, lol.
Rather have orbital spread or bug spore covering map
bleak patrol
didnt everyone had that idea by now
It's the internet, I call dibs on that idea 
tawny herald
4 minute extraction 
bleak patrol
4 minute extraction isn't that bad if you find yourself a nice hiding spot
bitter elk
I still think one of the two is bugged
EMS Orbital EMS and mortar not stopping bile titans
Or stun nades stopping titans
tawny herald
4 minute extraction isn't that bad if you find yourself a nice hiding spot
