oh no

#

Iedy got reactivated

plain bough
#

slowly reinvigorated for the sept 17 update

latent zodiac
#

are you FUCKING kidding me

#

first pvp game, my team comp looks good, levels similar or higher then mine

#

AND IT GIVES ME THIS CROSSPLAY BS

#

so fucking done with crossplay now man

#

no fucking way

#

turn crossplay off
pvp
gives me this matchmaking

#

i just want the fucking cosmetics man :(

#

shoul've been games PLAYED, not games WON, because you get THIS shit

eager cliff
#

shut up man

latent zodiac
#

im frothing

#

maybe we can pull this together

eager cliff

✝️

latent zodiac
#

top team, fighting for my fucking LIFE out here

#

against shit like this
why cant i just get 1 W

#

just got a balanced looking match by levels

#

praying to GOD it isn't some one sided bs 🙏

#

WE TAKE THOSE

#

still one sided as hell though

plain bough
#

other team really got stonewalled by yours

latent zodiac
#

because there is literally ZERO matchmaking mechnics at all, no by-level or by-skill matchmaking, just throws you into a random team, and you are stuck with those same people until you join a different server, or they leave and someone else joins

latent zodiac
# latent zodiac WE TAKE THOSE

so teams dont ever get switched around, so if you are in a losing streak where you keep getting stomped like this, the other team will just not leave, and you'll be fighting the same people
and whoever doesn't leave on your team, your stuck with, so nothing changes

slim coral
#

Why is helldiver channel warhammer now

dire igloo
#

We are doing as the emperor intended
Instead of colonizing planets we colonize channels now kek

latent zodiac
#

either completely rolling the other team repeatedly

viral shadow
#

ah yeah, stomp or get stomped

latent zodiac
#

or getting rolled repeatedly

#

no mixup with teams and whos who after a match really makes this suck, because its gonna be the same every match on that server

#

so getting rolled like this once, the only way to escape it is to just leave and re-quickmatch

viral shadow
#

classic in games where there is no skill based matchmaking

latent zodiac
viral shadow
#

or friend team restrictions/adjustments in the matchmaking to compensate for playing with people you know

latent zodiac
#

yup
think i found what i gotta do to get off of lose streaks

#

that was DISGUSTING

latent zodiac
latent zodiac
#

finally got all the cosmetics i wanted for tactical class

earnest stag
#

Like,for real now,posting that stuff here makes no sense at all and if Helldivers gets better this is just spam.

latent zodiac
#

i just literally have no other place then brainfart or here

#

besides, probably the last scoreboard or pvp bs that i post here, since i got the hang of how to get around matchmaking being shit

earnest stag
#

Offtopic

Were just as damaged as brainfart just without the meme pic communication

what im wondering is how his ping is fine

#

and my friend screenshotted his own match and its 300 ping for everyone

eager cliff
#

oh look fart guns and a stim gun

#

yipeeee

light nymph
#

New edge diver helmet confirmed

plain bough
#

Decent armor sets

#

interesting to lock strategems behind a warbond, can't wait for all the FF incidents with fart spray

eager cliff
#

they look ok , but lets see the passives + they need more than a warbond to get me interested back

#

so far i heard they doing good changes, here is hopin

plain bough
#

Advanced Filtration Passive, no exact numbers tho

eager cliff
#

might bite them in the ass later, hopefully they just showed it as content and it's normally unlockable ingame

#

otherwise, that's an L

plain bough
#

wasn't there something similiar with chemical weapons in HD1 being a DLC thing as well

eager cliff
#

on the other hand, most of the good guns are locked behind warbonds anyway so....

plain bough
#

I bet the rover dog will be the new mortar and its hated for close range with other people who don't have protection from gas attacks

eager cliff
#

it will definetely conflict directly with flamethrower users

#

i think it will be shit

plain bough
#

all will be revealed when it drops

#

until then, the geneva suggestions can't stop me using gas attacks on bugs

#

do fire and gas attacks stack though? could be interesting to run rover and flamethrower

eager cliff
#

if else it should ignite doing extra dmg

#

to everyone

#

jk it would crash the whole server

#

so armors have 100% gas resistance

#

ok so thats good , means you can stand in gas strikes and shit

cloud sorrel
#

:D

#

I am hoping they start to fix the game

eager cliff
#

think we all are , we can only cope

plain bough
#

We'll see once the update drops next week

loud ice
eager cliff
#

If its locked behind WB i personally dont like the idea

loud ice
#

I can't imagine they would be

eager cliff
#

As i said , we already have guns locked behind wb , most good guns i might say

loud ice
#

They've never done that before and I can't see a reason to start now

eager cliff
#

So no reason to lock strats too

plain bough
#

It seems to imply so

loud ice
eager cliff
#

Oh shit they are

#

Damn the TX thingie is also a heavy weapon

#

Support whatever

#

Damn

#

I mean it is the flamethrower stinky cousin but behind WB idk man

plain bough
#

As always I'll get the warbond

#

gotta get me more SC first

eager cliff
#

Yeah i mean if the changes are good imma play and get it too i guess

#

Havent played HD in months so hopefully the game feels fresh once again

viral shadow
#

If the stim pistols ammo is separate from the actual stims

#

It might be somewhat useful

sharp kindle
#

if it uses your stims as ammo
its dead on arrival

plain bough
#

The video doesn't show self-stimming, wasted opportunity there

#

Could've been like KF and it heals both yourself and allies

cloud sorrel
#

hope they dont do that

sharp kindle
#

given how ah is

#

its probable

cloud sorrel
#

I would

loud ice
#

I mean I can see it working in a medic loadout.

#

Cause you get extra stims and they work better on other people.

plain bough
loud ice
#

And include that with god knows what other balance changes and shit, with everything betting buffed

#

Maybe stim spam won't be as necessary of a strategy to even think about living

plain bough
#

Seems weird to buff the Breaker back to what it was instead of upgrading different variants of shotguns

eager cliff
cloud sorrel
plain bough
#

which is ironic since the snipers we have weren't used much

#

Will they buff my favorite anti-bot weapon Dominator with actual explosive rounds I wonder

cloud sorrel
#

I enjoyed it

#

I even though I had about 25-30 fps

loud ice
#

And to be fair, it's unknown if these are all the buffs or merely highlights?

#

The slugger and standard pump action have always been amazing guns, even after nerfs/buffs.

plain bough
#

they said "over 30 buffs to strategems/weapons" so these might be the highlights

loud ice
#

Indeed.

#

Unless they're itemizing it like

#

Each changed stat is an individual buff

cloud sorrel
#

I am still waiting for the stealth warbond

#

I wanna be snake

loud ice
#

Even still, not like they're changing a lot of stats

loud ice
#

I have seen videos of people solo'ing Helldives against bots, using stealth to their advantage.

cloud sorrel
plain bough
#

Still waiting on that Whisperer Liberator

loud ice
#

Could theoretically bring more use to a dedicated sniper kit.

plain bough
#

a stealth warbond might be on the table in the future

loud ice
#

Helldivers 2 is still one of the best games I've ever played, but maybe I'm biased cause they've yet to nerf my favorite loadouts. KekSkew

#

The Liberator Penetrator got power crept a bit when the stock Liberator got buffed, then the Adjudicator got added—hands down the best gun in the game, at least in terms of fun factor.

sharp kindle
#

i just dont like how anti fun the balancing is
i cant run funny loadout with randos

#

Wonder if the orbital railgun will get a severe reduction in CD timer to make up for all the heavies that spawn on higher diffs

Eruptor went through some big changes too. Shrapnel is back!

We have replaced the original shrapnel with the Frag Grenade shrapnel to no longer instantly one-shot Helldivers with the exception of the occasional unlucky headshot.

The amount of shrapnel is also increased and explosion radius increased by 33%. #BuffDivers

▶ Play video

All these highlights so far are just reverting the more unpopular changes they did over the months

But I'll take my Eruptor and shrapnel again

fucking useless all these fights

honestly, for Cyberstan it would literally make sense to add Cyborgs too

fast spindle

at the same time as the other illuminate stuff atleast

since the Cyborgs are slaves on Cyberstan which is now in Bots hands for a fucking while

One month left and we'll get the Constitution rifle on Liberty Day

I am pretty glad that they buffed the nerfed shit

Add illuminate, and I will be happy

20K on bug planets, those numbers could've been useful for napalm barrage acquisition

im AGREEING with you
"wait till the boots are clean" is meaning the same as "wait until they fix the game"

Yea theres a flamethrower for every slot

They need to add a sub zero warbond where you get nitrogen thrower that freeze up thing

So you can wield either a Torcher or Flamethrower alongside the toxic rover for both elements

Yeah.. you spray...

bug spray but lead based

pale hollow
#

I spray and spray and spray, but I do not kill - compared to other weapons.
Using the regular breaker like the spray and pray is just better

#

I suspect it does better if you get one of those matches where the game only spawns the smallest jumpy boys, but most of the time in high diff matches you go up against enemy swarms that don't match well with the spray and pray.

eager cliff
#

Ok so i like this so far , heavies are still a lot on numbers but they are easier to kill with conventional weapons

#

I havent had much problems with 3-4 chargers like before

#

You have the thermites, other support weapons, even eagles now damage them good

the shield generator was temporarily immune to the bugs melee

shouldn't the actual SHIELD shield be immune to melee though?

Thermite grenade is a win as well

But it feels so satisfying having my allies watch as shoot 30 grenades at the swarm of bugs like a madman

Grenade launcher is just great it almost all metrics imo
-lots of ammo
-good damage
-great aoe
-very mobile and ergonomic
-can destroy bug holes and automatons factory thingies
-doesn't take up a back slot
-And best of all

Also bot fabricators have HP now so I think it can be destroyed by everything that does anti-armor, heard a single thermite nade does it

i really hope that with this buff and basically overhaul update, armor passives get some love, because some of them really need it

like, the armors that are just resistances to a certain type of damage, shouldn't be 90% or 75%, i think they should be 100%, so you can REALLY use them

but unlike the first game you can find SC in missions and don't have to pay irl money for them if patient

I dislike that both the new gas stratagems are aquired through the warbond.

You first have to pay for the warcrimes before you can commit them

#

So far, less damage is traded for enemy confusion when they're inflicted by gas attacks

#

gas damage is not as bad as fire for helldivers as well

I like the current version of the gas, but it woulda been cool if it did what the acid rain modifier did and turned off enemy armor

bitter elk
#

I wonder if stim pistol allows you to self-stim though

#

Will have to grind 190 medals to know that

#

I also wonder if there would be a balancing pass changes for things that were not touched this time around or the last major buff patch note back then

#

Primary examples being jump pack, supply pack (albeit this one is fine as is imo), shield bubble etc.

its alright. Not great, not bad. One good thing it does is that you dont see everyone running the new strat at the same time in publics cause they're unlocking it in waves based on sc farming and buying the deficit

#

tox sprayer is the lesser cousin of the flamethrower for now, it should've made a cloud of gas similar to the grenade or orbital when fired long enough

#

so far you need to actually hit enemies for its effect to work

#

gas grenades are decent tho, its like an offensive stun grenade as it confuses enemies

#

ya know they said how they tuned the headshot damage down in favor for all other limbs getting more damage, feel like I keep getting 2 tapped by every bug now lol

So far, tried both the gas strategems and the rover is ironically better

#

and a suspicious lack of FF with it as well

#

I think they should make it when the gas weapons fire long enough, it creates a toxic gas cloud around you, so far it requires direct hits to effect enemies

muted fossil
# plain bough and a suspicious lack of FF with it as well

its cause the rover splits off from you slightly to stay gassing a target if you don't kill it, and then switches to the next target closest the rover, which, combined with its 12m range, means allies have to be hopelessly comitted to melee to get FF'd

i would enjoy VT2 more if it wasnt character locked

sorry helldivers peeps, allow us to talk about vt2 abit, its rare for me to share thoughts about the game usually, if at all

which is just a massive annoyance when wanting to level up a specific character

the only game im close to full achievement completion is fallout 4

like i love playing specific character but if someone else has it, i have to sadly let them play with it

a minor thing in the grand scheme of things but i feel ya

i really did try to enjoy it
but the bots suck for how complex they make some missions

bitter elk

though my favourite nowadays is sienna's necro DLC class

VT2 is a lot more enjoyable if you had AT LEAST one human buddy to play with

#

because god fuck me the bots are dumb sack of rocks at times

#

i once played it with someone streaming and the twitch integration fucked us so hard lmao

sharp kindle
#

which why i do prefer darktide as shallow as it is compared to VT2

short briar
#

guns

#

probably also the fact there's only 4 "classes" but you can build them a million ways

bitter elk
#

i havent gotten darktide yet personally, on the fence because part of what drew me into VT2 was how every combat scene felt like an elegant dance

#

where you're weaving in and out and all that shit

short briar
#

darktide is like a body builder trying to dance on ice

bitter elk
#

that and characterization and interaction

sharp kindle
short briar
#

it will happen but it's not at all gracefull

tho some encounters in higher diffs makes ranged combat a nightmare if not managed properly

i think i tried it on gamepass once and chose the big dude lol

cuz i loved seeing everyone smaller keka

or at least better than what we have atm

my fav thing with darktide is the client side weapon customization mod

cursed bolters and cursed plasma guns

eeh plasma doesnt need changes tbh

#

the hipfire reticle is far too accurate

short briar
#

gave it the double barrel pistol grip KEKW

sharp kindle
#

you dont need to aim at all

bitter elk
#

but yeah trying to correlate to what grok mentioned about builds and such, HD2 is such a different game compared to VT2, and by extension, Darktide

#

I wonder how can they even make players stick around tbh hmmge

#

because he does have a point; once i played enough and had enough, theres nothing really pulling me back in

#

not to say i dont enjoy the game though, more like i played way too much when it came out anyhow

sharp kindle
#

when it comes to HD2
its mostly just for the shitpost fun i guess

#

because it doesnt have long term prog

short briar
#

i just cant bring myself to play it especially after everything that happened

dire igloo
#

wait

#

so did HD2 go through with the psn bit

#

cause my friend said they didnt

#

cause if they didnt

#

why the fuck cant I buy the game

short briar
#

they just ended up banning it in 170+ countries that dont have psn access

but is psn required to play is the thing
