On bots you can easily destroy most stuff with just light pen tho

#

Some things may need medium

#

Small bots, berserkers, devastators and open-top scout striders can be destroyed with light pen weapons
Medium pen can basically deal with anything that is not a Hulk* or Factory Strider

#

You can even shoot down Gunships (not Dropships) with medium pen

sacred tapir
#

i know what that is

pale hollow
#

Funny thing is that it is not even OP.

sacred tapir
#

i want it

bleak patrol
pale hollow
bleak patrol
#

Doesn't matter

#

Heavy Pen is just too much for a sidearm

#

Essay incoming

sacred tapir
#

senator is fine

bleak patrol
#

It isn't

sacred tapir
#

makes it so i dont have to use autocannon

#

gets stale

bleak patrol
#

That's the problem

#

Just drop in with a crossbow and a senator and don't bring any support weapons, you don't need that
Oh it sounds so fun

pale hollow
# bleak patrol Heavy Pen is just too much for a *sidearm*

From a logical standpoint, I agree. From a gameplay standpoint, I disagree.
The Heavy pen is mostly only really noticeable against Hulks, other enemies that require heavy pen have too much HP, leaving the Senator only useful as a clutch finisher for heavily damaged enemies, which is unique without the heavy pen being a huge factor otherwise.

pale hollow
bleak patrol
pale hollow
#

The crossbow does too much at once, with too few drawbacks

bleak patrol
pale hollow
#

The senator for example is not great against hunters

#

nor shriekers

bleak patrol
#

Or I can just run the Senator and use it instead for anything that is not healing

#

And holes

pale hollow
#

The Senator is slower than the Verdict for trash clear due to the reload and mag size

bleak patrol
#

I clear trash with my muscles Chadge

pale hollow
#

Also, does not even always seem to oneshot hunters

bleak patrol
#

It does

pale hollow
#

Well yeah, if you hit the correct body part

bleak patrol
#

Unless your aim is off by like, 2km

pale hollow
#

good luck when getting fucking swarmed though

bleak patrol
#

Eh, I run jump pack, I will just fly away

#

If I'm lucky I will land on a nice rock that the bugs can't reach and the bots can't shoot at

pale hollow
#

So let me get this straight, you are complaining about the Senator because the specific way that you play the game makes it the 'meta' option for you?

bleak patrol
#

No, I don't even use it

#

Since I unlocked the Verdict

pale hollow
bleak patrol
#

Because, as you said, Verdict fills in the role Senator used to have

#

I despise meta options

pale hollow
#

The Senator is not even universally meta

bleak patrol
#

My only real complaint is that it has heavy penetration and is the only normal weapon that does so

#

At least there are no normal weapons that have anti-tank keksweat

pale hollow
#

Give me a single round heavy ass sniper with anti-tank AP and a microscopic ammo pool peepopray

bleak patrol
#

Oh you know what

#

That would be funny

pale hollow
#

Then finally the Stalwart would be true meta kekw

bleak patrol
#

I think I only used Stalwart like once or twice and it was before the sony drama

#

MGs are not really my thing, flamethrowers are

pale hollow
#

Stalwart went hard during the hunter-spam dark ages

#

Was almost a must have if you got the map seeds that favoured mass hunter spam over heavies

bleak patrol
#

I wasn't really playing bugs back then, I still don't kek1

#

I drop in from time to time when I think it's going to be fun and then I need like a month or two of rehab on bot planets

pale hollow
#

You are the very opposite of the majority

bleak patrol
#

And this time I'm not doing it on purpose, I just like it more when they shoot at me kek2

#

It's my introverted nature, the less living beings are in the 5m sphere around me, the better

pale hollow
#

I just find the fucking amour penetration checks on the Automaton front to be annoying, locking me out of a bunch of weapon combinations.
Fucking heavy strider spam can suck a dick

#

I'd rather have hunter spam, at least I can damage them with all weapons

bleak patrol
#

Well, I guess I'm lucky that most of my fav weapons have medium pen

pale hollow
#

Although the nerf to hunter pouncing was sad, they don't pose that much of a threat anymore stalkersad

pale hollow
bleak patrol
#

Can do

#

*because you didn't specify a support weapon snigsmile *

pale hollow
#

Right

bleak patrol
#

I'd probably take the

#

Uh

#

AMR?

pale hollow
#

watch as you get a balanced enemy pool with just a few heavy striders, instead of the horrible garbage that is true spam

bleak patrol
#

I still want to keep the jump pack so it limits the selection a bit hmm

pale hollow
#

-# fuck the auto reactions from FalcoBot3000 btw, so fucking annoying with the true spam etc.

bleak patrol
#

I think that the two main reasons why I prefer bots over bugs are my preferred loadouts and, well, the enemy amounts

#

I really like running heavy armor and I find it to be mostly not viable on bug missions due to slow speed and not enough real protection to help me survive being surrounded by the fucking hundreds of little shits and a bunch of big shits

pale hollow
#

I wish turrets didn't suck as much as they do against bots

pale hollow
bleak patrol
#

Which is why I use a jump pack

#

Literally my only real mobility

#

But look, I finish a solo bot diff 7 mission for example and I get around 300-400 kills on it, meanwhile on diff 5 bugs I will get around 700-800

#

There was that one personal order recently where you had to get 100 kills with 500kg bombs

#

And I got it in one bomb on bugs

pale hollow
#

Daymn wth kekw

bleak patrol
#

I am not joking

pale hollow
#

I just like bringing the MG turret, jump pack and heavy armour for bugs sometimes. Lets me hunker down periodically without getting turned into sliced ham in a millisecond.

bleak patrol
#

So, I use the jump pack mostly as a get out of jail free card, but I sometimes engage in a bit of tomfoolery and get myself to spots that no enemy can reach even if angered

#

I especially like doing that on extractions

pale hollow
#

Should use the jump pack, jungle armour, and bayonetted Constitution rifle. Jump into the face of a devastator and go ham.

bleak patrol
#

If done right I can just sit in one spot for 2-3 minutes and play tetris

pale hollow
bleak patrol
#

Peak Physique is my go-to perk for bug missions

#

I slap the shit out of them

pale hollow
#

Peak Physique + Constitution allows you to oneshot Hunters, iirc

bleak patrol
#

So, I tend to run blitzer because no ammo best ammo and what I like to do to hunters in particular is wait for them to jump at me, only to melee counter them before they hit me and blast them to pieces with electricity

#

I've done it so many times now that I can even get the timing right with lag

pale hollow
#

It is a great counter

bleak patrol
#

I wish I had all my clips here

pale hollow
#

the lil' slap and blap

sacred tapir
#

if i can use something other than autocannon, i can explore other supports

#

just sayin

bleak patrol
#

You can use other supports regardless

#

AC isn't even that good

shy schooner
#

EAT

bleak patrol
#

Sure it can do a lot of stuff at once, but there are other support weapons that do stuff better

#

Yeah, like EAT

#

Or RR

#

Or Quasar, if you don't feel like hauling an ammo backpack and calling in a fresh launcher every minute

shy schooner
#

Cause brother's, I be EATing good tonight

bleak patrol
shy schooner
sacred tapir
#

that is just blatant lies

#

better than the AMR atleast

#

and the GL is cool, until the hulk shows up and your eagle/stratagems are on cooldown

#

and that applies to almost any non heavy pen support

sacred tapir
#

i get 1 shot

#

for 1 thing

#

as opposed to AC, which does literally everything

#

hulk? ac, gunship? ac, literally anything but factory strider? ac

bleak patrol
#

It does everything, but is not the best option at anything

sacred tapir
#

that 1 taps striders and 2 taps devastators (if you dont just shoot it with breaker)

#

and everything else is 2-5

#

hulk can take as low as 3 shots i believe

#

gunship is 3

bleak patrol
#

Quasar

sacred tapir
#

because ac doesnt

#

it has a short reload

#

kinda

#

its like 6 seconds

bleak patrol
#

Quasar one taps Hulks, Gunships, Dropships etc.

sacred tapir
#

2 hulks

bleak patrol
#

It also one taps fabricators from any range

#

Has infinite ammo

sacred tapir
#

now what

bleak patrol
#

Doesn't have a backpack

sacred tapir
#

they are on your ass

sacred tapir
bleak patrol
#

Grenade

sacred tapir
#

or HE?

#

because if you say thermite i will crash out

bleak patrol
#

Point Strike, Eagle Rockets, Orbital Railcannon, 500kg, Airstrike, Orbital Laser

sacred tapir
#

and it does it all

#

pretty much just as well overall

bleak patrol
#

You are a lost cause

sacred tapir
#

it is genuinely one of the best choices

#

based on how it works

#

everytime i use it

sacred tapir
bleak patrol
#

You can drop me onto any mission with any loadout and I will make it out

sacred tapir
#

considering you mention stuff i dont have unlocked

#

so youre not lvl 15

#

i am

#

so im fucked for now

bleak patrol
#

I may be experienced, but you refuse to listen because "AC good, you bad"

#

Now I understand why Shiyon dislikes the AC

sacred tapir
#

because i despise waiting any amount of time for anything

#

its bad enough the eagle takes 2:30 to rearm

bleak patrol
#

Striders die to medium armor shot to the crotch

sacred tapir
sacred tapir
#

i just use the GL for it when i take it

bleak patrol
#

Chargers have no armor on mouth

sacred tapir
#

but i only take GL when a teammate has RR or EAT

sacred tapir
#

i just shoot it in the mouth with whatever i have on hand

bleak patrol
sacred tapir
#

yknow, i dont mind the RR

#

its ok

sacred tapir
bleak patrol
#

Explosive damage ignores armor, most of the time

sacred tapir
#

so eh

sacred tapir
bleak patrol
#

You don't need any armor penetration to kill a hulk

sacred tapir
bleak patrol
#

The backside is unarmored

sacred tapir
#

because he just tanks the cluster bombs/grenades i use on them

sacred tapir
#

i know that, it just sucks when they are on you as a solo

#

and thats why i carry the AC when solo

#

only for the fact that it trivializes them

bleak patrol
#

It doesn't

#

RR does

sacred tapir
#

i know

bleak patrol
#

You can also just use a railgun

sacred tapir
#

ive used the AMR on them

#

it works too

#

just annoying you need to use the 100x scope up close lol

#

its like 5x but whatever

bleak patrol
#

You can wing it in 3rd person

sacred tapir
#

its just shitty

#

i know how to point aim, but i swear it doesnt shoot straight

bleak patrol
#

AMR is pretty good when you're not in active combat or you've set yourself up in a good spot

sacred tapir
#

the other people take the lead

#

while you cover

#

but that isnt as good as a solo

#

i just prefer the AC, because its functional, thats all

bleak patrol
#

It's a very strong weapon that does allow a reload on the go and the only downside is the 1st person aim

sacred tapir
#

and the EAT isnt my style

bleak patrol
#

Quasar is a better EAT

sacred tapir
#

just the 1 per 70s is just too shit

sacred tapir
bleak patrol
#

Often enough

sacred tapir
#

like once every 40s? or smth

bleak patrol
#

Around or less than 10s

sacred tapir
#

i never knew that

#

(this is what i get for not testing)

#

all i had to do was try shit out

bleak patrol
#

The only real downside is that you need to charge it up

sacred tapir
#

and just not use it if its ass

sacred tapir
#

and the arc thrower, while not amazing, its fun

#

imma be honest

bleak patrol
#

The chargeup is fast enough so that a running hulk is not an issue, but slow enough that a running charger is an issue

bleak patrol
#

Closer to 3, I think

#

I don't really count it

#

I just hold the trigger and hope it works

sacred tapir
#

so like 4s like a hand grenade

#

the holy hand grenade count lol

sacred tapir
#

anyways, i will keep this in mind

#

and when im with friends i will fuck around more with random supports

#

i do notice the arc thrower works wonders on bots smaller than hulks

bleak patrol
#

While AC is not bad, it's biggest downside is that it's a literal trap

bleak patrol
#

Because it's an all-purpose weapon

#

You get used to it and then you don't want to use anything else

sacred tapir
#

its obvious

sacred tapir
#

so i need to take most of it all

bleak patrol
#

Want a fun fact

#

Flamethrower kills all

sacred tapir
#

while they get used to everything

sacred tapir
bleak patrol
#

Well, Hulks die to fire

sacred tapir
bleak patrol
#

Fire ignores armor

sacred tapir
#

you gotta be kidding me

bleak patrol
#

No

sacred tapir
#

thats fucking hilarious

bleak patrol
#

You can kill a Titan with a flamethrower

sacred tapir
bleak patrol
#

I'm not sure about factory striders

sacred tapir
#

my thoughts were fire kill bug, bot made metal, metal not burn, bot no die from fire

#

so im dumb

bleak patrol
#

But I'm pretty sure you could kill a gunship if you could reach it

sacred tapir
sacred tapir
#

but thats what RR/AC/EAT/Q

#

is for

bleak patrol
#

Brother

#

Gunship engines are medium armor

sacred tapir
#

i am gonna use AC for a bit longer, until my buddy unlocks some more things

sacred tapir
#

interesting, i didnt know that

#

ive only just started seeing them

bleak patrol
#

I just kill them with my pistol

sacred tapir
#

bc i just went on hard mode

sacred tapir
bleak patrol
#

Verdict

sacred tapir
#

im too broke for this

#

im stuck with the starter handgun

#

or the smg one

bleak patrol
#

For sidearm armor penetration, it's either Senator or Verdict

sacred tapir
#

but handgun better than smg

sacred tapir
bleak patrol
#

I liked it before

sacred tapir
#

yes yes you want it nerfed

#

wah

#

ik

#

anyways, what about primary?

bleak patrol
#

As in?

sacred tapir
#

bc i still have breaker, which is fine, but what if i want armor pen

#

and there is the flamethrower primary

#

in that one warbond

bleak patrol
#

Liberator Penetrator and Counter Sniper from base warbond

sacred tapir
#

and im still too broke for this rn

bleak patrol
#

They have medium pen

sacred tapir
#

i have literally 740 SC and thats it

#

i been trying to get as much as possible

#

but im getting nowhere so far

bleak patrol
#

Which is why I'm telling you about the base warbond weapons

sacred tapir
#

thanks for giving me things i CAN use, unlike everyone else

#

i ask people and they yap about shit from other warbonds

bleak patrol
#

The final weapon, Scorcher, has medium pen and small AoE explosive damage

sacred tapir
#

like do you see what level i am gamer?

sacred tapir
#

thanks for the wizdum, imma go sleep now

bleak patrol
#

Final wisdom

#

Scorcher kills striders with cockpit shots

sacred tapir
#

me eyeballs are getting drier than the deserts of terminid planets

bleak patrol
#

Even though it's heavy armor

sacred tapir
#

lmao

bleak patrol
#

What I'm pointing at here

sacred tapir
#

im done now

bleak patrol
#

Is how explosive damage works

sacred tapir
#

yes i got that from the whole "grenades killing striders even though its in front of them" thing

bleak patrol
#

Have a good mimir now

sacred tapir
#

that happens sometimes

oh boy, sure hope Lasath gets liberated before the DSS moves to Vog Sojoth and we wind up in a perpetual back and forth between the two

Nope

The shots literally don't go where you are aiming

they go just fine bro

Because I can

Are you being annoying on purpose?

Im just stating a fact

No you're not

the fact is you're too weak to handle heavy pen weapon and 2 handed medium even

don't worry you can train your strenght in super gym on your destroyer

You're just spinning the convo around trying to sound right

Anyway, if you really needed a sidearm to kill anything, you'd just use the crispr, since it ignore armor entirely

heavy sinew
bleak patrol
#

I'm going to record a clip of Reprimand's impeccable accuracy once I'm on my PC

heavy sinew
# tepid spear Neither did i

but you back him up cuz you don't like scope when his problem is entirely diffrent, also I haven't mentioned you specifically saying that you have problem with damage

bleak patrol

Because that's what the argument is about

theres already clips about the reprimand being crazy inaccurate, even with the peak physique and crouch accuracy armors

heavy sinew

Im playing with reprimand just fine, I use it as smg and it kills shit fast

muted fossil
#

yes because that stationary wall I shot from 15m away doesn't qualify as smg range

heavy sinew
muted fossil
#

A gun can be fun to use, and can be strong while still having an obvious issue

#

pick a line, am I using it as a sniper for the spread, or does the gun have rng bulletspread even at point blank?

are you pyson's alt acc or some shit?

Yet again, you're spinning my argument around

is it invisible to you that at smg range the gun is inaccurate?

I need to mention it since you're clearly think shooting a inanimate object will kill it, if you shot the actual enemy it would die after 2 - 3 rounds

#

Bruh

tepid spear
#

I was stoopid and talked about senator because i just read heavy PEN sidearm

muted fossil
#

Thats an interesting take on how you think showing accuracy has anything to do with damage

tepid spear
#

But now i know its about the smg, and i still agreekekl

muted fossil
#

Its opened up the floodgates of people calling for heavy pen primaries and buffs

bleak patrol
muted fossil
#

Also with marginal practice on the senator atm, you can down hulks to the eyes

#

really just a bad move on AH's part to do that, especially since fire mechanics ignore armor

heavy sinew
muted fossil
#

there were weapons that could kill anything already, but everyone is too focused on the senator to use the crispr

bleak patrol
muted fossil
#

it helps that the gas causes enemies to attack each other

#

so you get the low dot, and they deal extra damage to each other for you

heavy sinew
#

usefull for chargers nothing else from my experience

muted fossil
#

and the gas rover locks onto and flies to targets

#

so its even better than the rovers that rotate around you and split fire

heavy sinew
muted fossil
#

The only real weakpoint of the dedicated gas weapons aside from the gas nade atm is that your teammates tend to get hit by the crossfire

bleak patrol
#

Eh

muted fossil
#

nade doesn't have that issue since people are used to avoiding the nade

bleak patrol
#

They tend to get hit regardless

the RR is fucking peak

more ammo, less recoil

and you can just let it fly for longer

and its better to get you out of a pinch, the hmg can get you into one real quick

sacred tapir
#

just my shitter opinion ofc

grizzled dagger
red jetty
#

i think i prefer the stalwart over the MG-43

#

maybe it's the ROF, but it feels like it does more damage

sacred tapir
#

Prolly the rof

#

But stalwart sucks for clearing medium targets

#

And bugs have quite a few

red jetty
#

Just take a medium pen primary. I always use one

plain bough
#

ex crossbow and HMG, fun times

red jetty
#

For just hive guards, the shield heads, the stalwart is fine since you can shoot at their legs underneath the plating. Those damn armored spewers are a nightmare though

heavy sinew
red jetty
#

I think the stalwart is slightly more versatile since it can basically replace your primary weapon, so you can take the flamethrower / crossbow / eruptor / whatever niche weapon to help out

#

The reload kills the mg43 for me

#

Unless I'm running jetpack it gets me caught in bad spots

sacred tapir
sacred tapir

valid hedge
#

not good at defending allies

sacred tapir
#

wym by defending anyways

#

i can shoot enemies off my team mates tails all the time

#

i use the breaker

#

and it never fails me

valid hedge
#

i prefer long range engagement to my enemy

sacred tapir
#

its ok up to 40m

#

then its like 4 shots to kill standard units

#

but even then it performs decent ish considering you get like 18rd mags

valid hedge
#

tenderizer is just better imo because insane damage rate, high rate of fire, lowish recoil, and ease of reload.

#

and range of any choice

sacred tapir
#

is this some premium warbond thing im too broke to understand?

valid hedge
eager cliff
#

surely

#

might get new DSS shit instead idk

valid hedge

#

true and they are getting smaller and smaller content wise

valid hedge
#

but i can probably grind out the warbond credits in a day or two

#

for anything new

red jetty

im pretty sure that means the cooldown time for the calldown

#

not literal reloading

#

cause the flavortext is something like "we invested in automated tax software so now we got the number jockeys working in the strategem bay"

Miserable and having fun dont mix but fuck it

Just split it up for 10-15 minutes every other playsession for awhile

Alone would be worse

If you get 3-4 people then one does objective while the rest search

i mean i just do it with my brother

also side note, i love that its meant to be YOUR OWN SUPER DESTROYER meanwhile theres like 10 other mfs in the freezer

valid hedge
#

we get it done fairly quick

sacred tapir
#

that were told the same shit

#

and i find it absolutely hysterical

valid hedge
#

me and my brother were able to get about 500 SC in an hour

sacred tapir
#

you get like 10 per stack

#

so like how

#

i been here for 53 hours of gameplay and im still at about 900

valid hedge
#

found like a hundred 1, and the rest were just easy grabs

#

we used jumppacks before the buff

sacred tapir
sacred tapir
#

i rarely use them

valid hedge
sacred tapir
#

i use RR usually

#

so its not an option

valid hedge
#

diversify brother

sacred tapir
#

unless i get someone to assisted reload, which only works with coordinated teams, with le friends

#

which i dont have

sacred tapir
#

i was an AC fanboy

#

then i tried some other stuff

#

RR, AMR, EAT, MGs and shit

valid hedge
#

i meant like a non backpack weapon stratagem

sacred tapir
#

about to test railgun soon

sacred tapir
#

its just that most of them cant do everything like the RR/AC can

#

i mean the arc thrower does on bots

valid hedge
#

running EAT-IT and MG with jumppack is good fun

sacred tapir
#

until a gunship shows

sacred tapir
#

2 is ok

#

but 3/4? fuck that

valid hedge
#

i rely on myself more of the time then strats

sacred tapir
#

but the strategems make it easier

#

and besides you rely on support weapons

#

which are strategems

#

so checkmate, liberal yup

valid hedge
#

are you really going to get pedantic on me

sacred tapir
#

just funnier to do that

# loud bison 3 brood commanders nearby whatever, I'm not wasting my time throw 500 because I'...

i think the only time when i've never genuinely been angry at someone in the game is when they jump into extract early without thinking
only remembering that happening twice, once a while back, we had tons of samples, im running to grab the other container, whole team is dead except me and one other guy, pelican is waiting, only other guy jumps in way too soon, and i get left behind on the way back to pelican with the samples
and this wasn't "oh, well, should have left the samples if they were so far out" they were AT extract, about 20 meters away from pelican itself
second time was pretty recent, a defense mission with the rockets going up, goes pretty well, except one guy with a fucking jump pack gets into extract before literally everyone else, and gets into pelican the literal fucking SECOND it lands, so everyone else has 20 seconds to get there or get left behind
my ass is still by the front gates, so im running, other 2 guys got there already and at least have the courtesy to wait most of the 20 seconds before jumping in and my heavy armor ass gets left behind

loud bison
#

some people are just a little too special

#

the more I interact with them, the more normal I feel

sacred tapir
sacred tapir
#

because usually defending isnt too hard

#

and the enemies rarely get too far up

loud bison
#

I don't think light armor was going to help out in that situation

sacred tapir
#

might have

#

heavy armor DOES impact stamina and speed

#

speed less so, but still

I choose the ever versatile, medium armor with extra padding modifier

If it was one of the annoying ones i feel you

balmy spire

It was the one with the rockets

sacred tapir
#

also while im here, how to grind super credits?

#

i tried going low levels (lvl 3)

#

but its like nothing

plain bough
#

Difficulty 1 maps, rinse and repeat

#

they're very small maps

sacred tapir
#

ofc lvl1

#

do they even have bunkers

plain bough
#

Likely to have at least 1

#

Sometimes I've gotten 3 bunkers

sacred tapir
#

does it matter what faction?

plain bough
#

Nah so long as it's difficulty 1, tho it'll be easier on non-defense planets

#

Some planets have more favorable terrain too, I prefer on the Terminids side the planet Trandor

sacred tapir
#

but theres nothing on trivial

balmy spire
#

I’ve had the most luck on 3, goes by much faster with a full squad

#

SKULL CAPTAIN! GET THE HMGS!!!!

sacred tapir
#

they would work far better

#

i feel like 1 patriot is almost mandatory for a better experience on high difs, that and the shield relay

#

on lvl 8 i like to place patriot in shield with an hmg emplacement

#

2 people in shield, then 1 player uses eagle smoke + arc thrower (liberty's storm cloud) and the last use idfk whatever they want

#

its worked before

balmy spire
#

I'm not a huge fan of exosuits on bots given how often tanks, factory striders, and cannon turrets will aimbot you without warning

#

AND THOSE BASTARD CHICKEN WALKERS WITH THE ICBMS

sacred tapir
#

nah its honestly devastators that ruin it

#

and also the strider is true, but thats more SHD or HD

#

impossible/suicide mission is easy with the shield

#

protects exo, and the HMG emplacement

#

and you have the arc thrower/eagle smoke guy + the AT guy with recoiless/quasar/EAT

#

this solve all things, striders are a combo of 500kg/AT guy/exo rockets (i think they damage FS iirc)

balmy spire
#

Theres not much that can stand up to an HMG Emplacement and it has a much shorter cooldown than a mech. If i'm running the HMG Emplacement I run a recoilless to take out the bigger enemies

#

*I always run lvl 10

or if theres a small hill near me i will manage to kill myself

im like a toddler, someone needs to make sure i dont kms on accident

so i use the mg instead, bc it does similar shit with no risk (until reload, but then you just jump pack away)

#

I'm just ready for some new content

sacred tapir
#

when minigun

#

when BIG armor come out

#

when will i be able to get a suit of armor dropped in by hellpod (not like patriot, i mean like MW2019 juggernaut suit type armor)

#

when can i get this stuff made, and then put a playlist into the suit like MW2019's (royalty free) heavy metal music but instead its helldivers 2 themed metal?

mech suit from advanced warfare

minigun on one arm and GL on the other or whatever

sacred tapir

#

yeah

sacred tapir
fast spindle
#

less of a mech more of an exosuit

sacred tapir
#

it has a rocket arm and a machine gun but w/e close enough

fast spindle
#

honestly i just want resistances on armors to be immunities instead

#

especially explosion ones

#

theres a reason i dont clump up with team mates, and its not because of enemies

loud bison
#

well, at least we get to try them because I have my doubts we'll complete the MO

plain bough
#

minimal chance, but current tactic is admirable, votes going pre-emptively for one of the MO planets before we even taken it

sacred tapir
#

Its about the same as player sprint speed almost

#

So you will lag behind a little bit, but its like you show up 15 seconds later

#

At worst

#

Besides theyre just more of a defensive weapon than offensive

sacred tapir

bro eradicate missions FUCKING SUCK ASS

i couldnt get ANY FUCKING TEAM MATES

NOT ONE MF JOINED

SOS BEACON ENABLED, FUCKING WAITED IN LOBBY FOR 10 GOD FUCKING DAMNED MINUTES

ONLY TO FAIL THE MISSION BECAUSE THEY DROPPED THE WHOLE FUCKING WAREHOUSE OF ROBOTS FROM I FUCKING ROBOT ON MY HEAD

#

holy shit

#

these missions are so unbalanced unless you lock in with 3 other fucking NERDS to do it

#

you cant set up defenses because theres no prep time, you cant bring eagles because once you run out youre fucked, orbitals have extreme cooldowns once theyre done, and all the other shit is borderline useless

#

im fuckin fuming about that

theres a reason i cherry pick operations to avoid that shitass mission type
