Blyat they deployed 1st Galactic War recruit to 2nd Galactic war
Nah, that would be an actual event if they did that, this is just misplaced recruits from the 2nd war.
The Helldivers from the first war were actual special forces, not 2 minutes of training 'special'.

the new tank makes no sense, the more i think about it. so its a modern/future setting, a world where tank destroyers as they are in ww2 era would make ZERO sense to field, yet the tank we have is a tank destroyer and its equipped with a 120mm gun, which is the same shit MBTs use, so why not just make an MBT like the bots have? well because that would be good and fun, but we cant have that, we also have to make sure the tank has LIGHT PENETRATION WEAKSPOTS that make it even LESS fun to use, because damage can be dealt to the tank by any enemy, maybe they wont destroy the tank, but it certainly still cripples it, by the year hd2 takes place, we should have gotten a better tank tbh (yes i know its the one from hd1, but its still dumb)
tl;dr tank kinda sucks and i want those ablative light pen weakspots removed or a buff to the tank's hp
rancid ibex
Throw out Alexus first then the tank can be buffed
sacred tapir
yeah, can we burn him?
anyways, that tank should also get a responsiveness buff
youre telling me it turns at 4 degrees per day?
ok pal, either make it turn faster, and move faster, or give it more armor
or both, because as of now, they not only shoot the tank while its being called in, but it also barely SURVIVES BEING CALLED IN
and i mean sometimes it takes so long to turn, that youre dead before you can even ENGAGE the vox engine/tank/war strider/hell even hulk, thats shooting you in the ass
its just not really fun in any way
its good fun on dif 6
or maybe 7
but on 8-10
its just miserable
everything under the sun can kill you besides devastators, unless its a rocket dev
oh or the troopers i suppose
the tank shouldve been heavy armor front and side plates, medium everywhere else
(also that durable damage boost for the enemies just made vehicles more aids to play with)
that change was clearly intended to nerf the tank before it was released
they hate the playerbase so much its almost funny
slim coral

Well
The tank in Helldivers 2 is a Main Battle Tank
But yeh the fact tank can be defeated by light pen is stupid
sacred tapir
The tank in Helldivers 2 is a Main Battle Tank
its a tank destroyer in design
it handles like one
most mbts can rotate their cannon 360
this one? maybe 45 degrees
sacred tapir
First, give this tank the ability to turn on the spot.
it can
its just a slow fucker, 2nd gear speeds it up a little
but not enough
fleet gazelle
Then we need to find a mod with the Ferdinand tank skin for it. No one will notice the difference.
slim coral
its a tank destroyer in design
Believe me when I say there is a reason its a MBT
sacred tapir
Believe me when I say there is a reason its a MBT
alright, lets hear the reason
im interested
slim coral
Arrowhead is a swedish company
So for a while Swedish uses a casemate tank since like 60 to 90
Aka the Stridsvagn 103
For some reasons it is a Main Battle Tank
And not a tank destroyer
It has same spec as Bastion tank
So in the defense of these dumbass
The Bastion is a MBT
I dont get how this is a MBT
Ask the Swedish
Just glad that Bastion can turn the gun around a bit
The Strv 103 gun is welded right on the hull so it has to turn entire vehicle
fleet gazelle
This piece of junk at least has good horizontal aiming angles, unlike what they added.
slim coral
This piece of junk at least has good horizontal aiming angles, unlike what they ...
Yeh
By raising the entire tank up
Part of me wish they added different tank ammo types
fleet gazelle
By raising the entire tank up
So what they added was Ferdinand.
sacred tapir
So in the defense of these dumbass
no point defending them tbh, their decisions suck usually
slim coral
So what they added was Ferdinand.
The design is
Actually real I believe
I forgot whats the name
sacred tapir
anyways, that doesnt change the fact the bastion needs more armor
fleet gazelle
You can load artillery shells into a tank, but they don't give the same effects as they say.
sacred tapir
because the title "Bastion" shouldnt be given to this cardboard box
it barely survives 4 seconds with a vox engine firing at it
and thats being nice
im not asking for indestructible, im asking for a fighting chance
slim coral
because the title "Bastion" shouldnt be given to this cardboard box
Whats the point of bringing Bastion to Vox if ya kno
fleet gazelle
because the title "Bastion" shouldnt be given to this cardboard box
The Bastion is not a tank. It was always intended as a mobile, stationary anti-aircraft gun for covering points of interest, not as a primary fire unit.
slim coral
Vox can shoot missile up and down like
10 km away
And your tank doesnt have neutral steering
You have to hold accelerate and turn
sacred tapir
The Bastion is not a tank. It was always intended as a mobile, stationary anti-a...
its a field gun
basically
with an engine and tracks
slim coral
Bastion in like actual sense
Is a SPG through and through
Its the literally worse thing to use in urban setting
sacred tapir
And your tank doesnt have neutral steering
it does tho?
slim coral
Like MBT yeh tank in urban is already bad
sacred tapir
i held D and turned right
and A turned left
didnt have to press W or S
just moved
sacred tapir
but 2x 0.4 degrees per second is still 0.8
slim coral
My tank skid across the dirt floor
fleet gazelle
Remembering what it's like to drive a jeep through rough terrain...
sacred tapir
im just remembering that balance cant be fun for players
in this game
they act as if the enemies will rage quit if things arent piss easy
fleet gazelle
sacred tapir
anyways, hd2 is fun again for me
in the form of commando missions
the rest is still somewhat boring at times
but commando missions are a good outlet for fun tbh
fleet gazelle
Vehicle control sucks
Because of inertia? I think that's normal.
sacred tapir
Because of inertia? I think that's normal.
no, its not normal that you skid across dirt like a fucking go kart
that shits dumb
tanks dont move horizontally, at least not very easily
fleet gazelle
Well, if they turn a game about bringing democracy into Forza, it seems like something's wrong. If they make the transport system proper, you'll have no idea how to navigate rough terrain.
sacred tapir
what?
anyways, tank need armor buff
front/sides should be heavy, rest medium, and maybe light pen in a small part at the very back or something
slim coral
there is no way you can make a tank skid
sacred tapir
just so youre not invincible
sacred tapir
tanks dont skid unless something pushes them, or theyre going fast as fuck and turn sharp
sacred tapir
indeed so it shouldnt slide
at all
and it should be more armored to compensate for a max speed of "Person with broken leg crossing the street with no crutches"
slim coral
but yeh
fleet gazelle
but commando missions are a good outlet for fun tbh
It's no fun when your allies, instead of maneuvering and eliminating Vox engines, just die like lemmings, and then you're left alone with all this.
slim coral
this dude Alexus needs to be removed
sacred tapir
It's no fun when your allies, instead of maneuvering and eliminating Vox engines...
just dont get spotted, like what?
thats how commando missions kinda just are, dont fight, hide
no point getting into fights head on with no strategem support
sacred tapir
no its not, if you have your redacted regiment armor, or even the scout armor, you can sneak
just fine
prone or crouch, you basically dont get noticed until youre able to literally touch them
slim coral
if I run normal nade I can kill vox but I can't kill Hulk
if I run thermite I can kill Hulk and Strider
but not Vox
sacred tapir
i just bring the frags because i get 6
slim coral
such dilemma
sacred tapir
thermite kills vox?
idk what youre talkin about
just throw it at the base of the chute
and it will phase through
sacred tapir
its silly
but also 2 thermites + 2-3 vents = dead
if you dont wanna bother
but make sure the thermites are on the crotch area of the engine
or it takes 1 extra
so if you bring the engineering armor with you (idk why you would on a stealth mission tho) you get 2 extras which helps
im still talking about commando missions btw
which is why i just dont get seen :)
fleet gazelle
but also 2 thermites + 2-3 vents = dead
sacred tapir
i did learn the hard way that shooting one dude in a convoy lets them ALL KNOW WHERE YOU ARE
sacred tapir
no idea what any of that means
but i know that 2 thermites and some vents kill it
fleet gazelle
You'll kill him with 2-3 of his Terminids, if you hit the sarcophagus. Or two of your railgun volleys will hit him... Yeah, they'll definitely hit... He has 21k HP in his torso.
You can always look on the Internet.

On difficulty 10, either level 150s play and finish everything in 15 minutes, or level 40-60 newbies who die quickly and constantly spam you with reinforcements, while you stand there disabling two nearby jammers.
slim coral
kinda hard to play level 10 without ppl you trust
kinda sucks how these are the only unique attachments
sacred tapir
idk why I keep diving at diff 10
me when i just decide to play dif 7 because its more fun than 10
i dont play games to show off my skill, i play them to have fun
and 10 is rarely fun to me
i play havoc in darktide because i find THAT games difficulty fun, this games difficulty is just making more and more obnoxious shit spawn in, darktide makes things tougher, and more numerous, but its still manageable, or you can still rely on your team to help, even WITH random players
offtopic but still
slim coral
jesus fuck
getting down to Diff 7 you meet these stupid fucking cunt level 20s trying to do shit
and keep tossing 380 near people
not only you have to dodge vox, mortar
but also these stupid fucking cunts with their 380

and it seems to filter the idiots
maybe rocket striders scare dumb people?

My friends one of those
The warbonds that release are either holy fuck this is broken or this is dog shit
Also me who just uses shotguns 
plucky lion
shotgun fungun
lately i been using 1h SMGs + directional shield
not meta, but that shield can really take a beating so it's pretty nice
rotund niche
I remember when the shield kinda just popped whenever it got hit
rancid ibex
plucky lion
I remember when the shield kinda just popped whenever it got hit
maybe they buffed it bc it can take a lot of hits before going down
only thing is... dont keep it up when the reinforced striders shoot their rockets. it's amazing at catching those and yeeting you into oblivion lol
sacred tapir
the shield can take easily like 5-6 devastator punches iirc
plucky lion
the only thing keeping directional shield from being really good is that there just aren' many great weapons to use it with. exp crossbow is pretty good, but that's ur only strong primary
if only we could 1h the reprimand like a boss 
sacred tapir
if only the exp crossbow didnt suck ass to play with
feels like shit
its just not fun
slim coral
Also me who just uses shotguns <:GrokChadGAMMA:978810880009576479>
DOUBLE FREEDOM !!!!!!
slim coral
if only the exp crossbow didnt suck ass to play with
Idk how ppl even using it
I tried and it felt so weird for me
So I just went back using Reprimand
sacred tapir
Idk how ppl even using it
the most fun i had with it
was sniping fabricators
at like 240
with the crazy drop
its fun to calculate drop or predict it
but not to use it normally
slim coral
I feel like Eruptor makes it no reason to use crossbow beside for the ability to shield
Also
Stim Pistol is peak
I have been running it on Cyberstan and it saves so many moments
sacred tapir
i mean eruptor just shoots slower is all
slim coral
I still like the ability to clear out everything around you when needed
bleak patrol
I hate the “meta” people of helldivers 2
I had no idea what the meta even is until this very moment because I decided to check for shits and giggles and I don't really understand half of it
slim coral
I had no idea what the meta even is until this very moment because I decided to ...
Some people are very
desert lion
what the
bleak patrol
Like for example I don't understand why De-Escalator is so high because from my personal experience it sucks ass
Directional Shield is in the "never use" spot and from my personal experience it's pretty decent
Eruptor and the Crossbow are top picks, so is Talon
Breaching Hammer is a must have apparently
I have no idea why the integrated explosives passive is in the s tier
All the melee weapons are in the "It's pretty good" tier for the squids
Shit's all over the place, just use whatever
sacred tapir
I had no idea what the meta even is until this very moment because I decided to ...
its not worth learning
just a bunch of nerds
sacred tapir
Like for example I don't understand why De-Escalator is so high because from my ...
it does suck ass
idk what theyre tweakin on
bleak patrol
I accidentally learned that I might be a meta whore 
sacred tapir
talon is good tho
crossbow is lame and the eruptor is fun but its not for me
breach hammer actually does slap, but i wouldnt say meta
bleak patrol
What I like about Talon - It's basically the old Senator
What I don't like about Talon - Energy weapon
sacred tapir
talon is better than current senator tbh
because fuck does it suck to just have 46 shots with senator
just cant hardly use it for long unless you shoot like, 2 bots and put it away
in which case, why even use it, just use your primary
talon lets you shoot 7 shots in a spray without overheating, which is nice, and usually enough to remove whatever required you to pull out the secondary over reloading the primary
bleak patrol
Technically speaking
My secondary is my primary
Because my primary
Most of the time
sacred tapir
thats how it feels with the talon tbh
bleak patrol
Is the Eruptor
sacred tapir
what secondary do you favor?
bleak patrol
Verdict
sacred tapir
im a talon whore through and through
verdict looks fun
i dont have it tho
sad
but polar patriots is not at the top of my list
siege is
i want the hammer
i would say i want the BFGL but it sucks balls
because they decided to reduce its AoE AND damage from the normal GL
as of now, the normal GL and the supply pack is just the better version of the BFGL
and you get stims and grenades with supply pack
the BFGL just takes both slots and sucks while doing it
sacred tapir
yeah but meta includes quasar
which one shots those
ofc with a hefty cooldown
idk i love the hammer more tho
its cooler
bleak patrol
Meta apparently doesn't include the quasar
sacred tapir
thats because whoever made that list is a dumb fat retard
but in reality the quasar is the recoiless with no backpack
but it does a little less damage
bleak patrol
Quasar is good when you want a recoilless but also want a backpack
sacred tapir
exactly
i dont use recoiless because i wanna use mobility packs
recoiless also just feels cheesy to me
its literally the delete button
sure stationary reload
but i think its still boring
bleak patrol
I use recoilless for bot blitz missions
Most of the time I have no need for the heavy weaponry cause I have the Eruptor and the ability to hit the hulk in the eye with it
I also know where to aim it to remove war striders and factory striders
My Eruptor saga started when I played with Shiyon and he told me I had better luck with it than he did
I only sometimes almost kill myself with it, and never because of the explosion
The rng just decides to pierce my chest with shrapnel
sacred tapir
I also know where to aim it to remove war striders and factory striders
where do you aim it?
id like to know
for war striders
factory striders i just kill by shooting the underbelly doors

The double-barreled shotgun is good in itself, like any shotgun, but unlike the lever-action designated marksman rifle, this piece of crap takes longer to reload and has less impact.
Shotguns become a great option with armor that speeds up reloading.

I prefer not being overwhelmed
And tbh, helldivers is a different kind of “overstimulation” (i guess you could call it) than darktide, which is my usual game, darktide doesnt force you to figure out how to cope with shit thats out of your control
But helldivers decides to toss 4 vox engines at me, so many that shooting vents and nading them doesnt work

I been playing d6 recently, so far it's been fun and peaceful and you only deal with factory striders

I'm seeing many high levels and d10 divers down here
slim coral
hot take, i prefer vox over striders
Vox is a nice enemy where you can dispatch them very quickly
You can kill them w any kind of weapons
Factory Strider, if you dont have AT weapons good luck dispatching it quickly
sacred tapir
well that or the skill to get under it without getting killed
but vox makes it more rewarding to get under
feels more fun
slim coral
Its more satisfying
sacred tapir
indeed
slim coral
Also for Strider u need Medium weapon and up
sacred tapir
striders are just magdump the bay doors with a weapon and wait
yeah that isnt a big deal tho
slim coral
This game adds a lot of cool light weapon but factory strider is completely immune to light weapon
sacred tapir
anyone can kill a factory strider
slim coral
That thing is mad annoying
sacred tapir
even a level 1
the war strider on the other hand you cant
it takes like 8-10 autocannon rounds

I have found a use for the Bastion for people who don't actually want to drive it
Just drop it when you need the enemies distracted. They will prioritize destroying the Bastion, and it can take some beating before it dies. Examples include - dropping it during extraction, dropping it during raise the flag objectives
Not to mention that the dropship delivering it will also provide some fire support

Wtf
rancid ibex
Why is this clip so choppy
My PC trying its best running at unoptimized ass game
bleak patrol
What are your specs
rancid ibex
The gameplay is fine but trying to get a clip is what makes it really choppy
rancid ibex
What are your specs
1650 4gb vram, and 8gb ram
bleak patrol
You're literally running the game on minimum required
I don't think it's the optimization issue at this point
rancid ibex
Yes it is. I've run games that are a lot more demanding than HD2 and they all run well
bleak patrol
You're literally on the minimum requirements
rancid ibex
There are hundreds of people even with extremely powerful PCs struggling to even run the game. As if nepotism and bribery did them good to play Helldivers 2
bleak patrol
I run the game on two setups, one being a 3060 6gb vram, 12th gen i7 and 32gb ram and the other being 4070 Super 12gb vram, 14th gen i7 and also 32gb ram and neither of them is struggling and even the weaker one can record the game no problem
rancid ibex
You're literally on the minimum requirements
And? The engine is fucking old
It's not my poor ass fault that this game runs like shit. It's theirs for picking an engine already doomed from the beginning
bleak patrol
The weaker setup runs the game on mixed medium/high and the stronger setup runs the game maxed out
rancid ibex
If those retards made their own fucking engine then people wouldn't fucking judge me for sending clips that choppy so I can show them the weird shit I see
rancid ibex
Oh dear god, are you a glaze diver or something
bleak patrol
What is wrong with you people
rancid ibex
Forget we had this conversation
bleak patrol
Why do you guys think it's acceptable to call anyone a retard unironically
How am I supposed to take you seriously when this is how you behave
The game has its issues but that doesn't mean everyone can just act this way
If you don't like it then just don't play it
I'm surprised that AH is still even working on this game when everyone treats them this way
It's disgusting
bleak patrol
Oh dear god, are you a glaze diver or something
And to answer this question - no. I just play the game, get annoyed by problems like anyone else, but I understand that gamedev is not simple and I still appreciate the fact that the devs still work on this game despite all the shit you and other members of this community give them
rancid ibex
Listen, mate. I'm sure others here have better ways to explain why the devs are so fucking hated by the other half of the community and why loved by the other half
But on my side, it's because they are fucking incompetent
bleak patrol
Why do you think so
rancid ibex
They BALANCE shit AGAINST players
rancid ibex
You think them buffing guns and call it a day? Fuck no, shadow buff enemies to compensate. Reduced the game size? Fuck no, more updates that will make it back to 100 gigs
bleak patrol
About the game size, are you upset that they are updating the game?
rancid ibex
Why do you think so
I could write an essay but I'm too tired to even start writing one and it'll make this channel look like an echo chamber so just, ask someone else who shares the same attitude as I
rancid ibex
All I can give you is that Arrowhead is fucking Narrow-minded. They don't do anything to make the game more fun for all players. They want to make it fucking hard. Fucking "realistic" while there's so much fucking retarded shit that isn't even fucking realistic
bleak patrol
You also didn't answer my other question
rancid ibex
Flamethrower doesn't work like this. No plasma isn't like what they fucking explained. No, rifles shouldn't be light pen, in real life they're fucking powerful and they shouldn't be fucking outclassed in armor penetration by a literal revolver, that's not how it fucking works. Who was the retard that said these guys have a military background? Why the FUCK can't we destroy a fucking jammer using a literal callable cruise missile?
So many shit
rancid ibex
You also didn't answer my other question
I've no time to defend my argument, it's just bullshit calling for nothing and at the end of the day I'll still hate arrowhead because of their retarded decisions
I love the game but hate the devs. I try to find ways to enjoy but there's still so many things wrong with this game
rancid ibex
I love the game, as a concept, or something. Like, I enjoy the gameplay style, no other game has it
But really, what the devs come up is so poor in both execution and whatever the other one was called
bleak patrol
Speaking of revolver, the Senator was specifically buffed to heavy pen because people didn't want to use it when it was medium pen
rancid ibex
I can't belive people never try to do some research and see something beneath all that hype
bleak patrol
It was too slow to use and felt underwhelming
I'm not really a big fan of the buff it received which is why I stopped using it afterwards
Currently, Talon is the old Senator
Also we shouldn't really look at the penetration values the same way we look at them in real life, because in real life we don't shoot big thick metal robots, mutated bugs and aliens wearing space tech armor
rancid ibex
Also we shouldn't really look at the penetration values the same way we look at ...
Tell them in the discord server to stop saying this game is realistic and admit that it's all artificial difficulty or some shit. Helldivers isn't a goddamn tactical shooter
Because, if they claim this game to be realistic, then intermediate rifle caliber rounds should have more penetration. The flamethrowers should work ike how they work irl
And we can destroy literally anything with the fucking solo-silo/leveller
bleak patrol
I remember that people were also complaining and still are about the armor level of the Bastion
Because "why is tank Medium"
rancid ibex
And also switch to a better fucking engine
bleak patrol
Well, because medium armor in this game protects you from roughly anything that makes sense for a tank to protect you from
I did some research on this
I wrote it in this channel even
We could apply this to enemies using medium armor in game and then you'd have to answer a simple question - can a normal rifle penetrate tank armor
Because if the in-game medium armor (not talking about the one we wear) completely protects the user (be it you or the enemy) from normal handheld weaponry, then why would your normal handheld weaponry (a normal rifle in this case) be able to penetrate it
Like, if we buffed the Bastion to use heavy armor, do you know how much stuff would be unable to even scratch it?
What I'm trying to say is that whatever drunk designer made the armor system in this game, it's not really what you imagine it to be
Light armor is more similar to wearing a ballistic vest, while medium armor is closer to light vehicle armor
shy schooner
Its not that its medium armor pen, its that shooting literally any of the cosmetic pieces of the tank chunks its HP
People complain about the armor though like its the "Only" problem with it, are just wrong
shy schooner
from what i've seen, shooting the small bags on the side of the bastion do fuck loads of damage
bleak patrol
But right now I'm using the medium armor on the Bastion as a way to show how the armor works in this game
shy schooner
I know, im just agreeing with it being med armor value
bleak patrol
But yeah, cosmetic pieces shouldn't really transfer damage to main health
rancid ibex
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YIwU2o2YtFE
No wonder why the devs deserve the hate treatment they get. They're just dumb and stupid
bleak patrol
But do you wanna know a funny thing about it
You can do the same to enemies
Hitting them in weakspots for more damage than the weakspots have will still transfer all damage to the main health pool
rancid ibex
Like yeah everything they do is against the fun
bleak patrol
That's why you can kill Vox engines easily
Just hit them in the vent with something big

its just they're not really suppost to be "weakspot" here
They are bag, not even attached to the tank as you watch them flop around in the wind
bleak patrol
That's the issue with how the tank is designed
slim coral
Pretty sure your tank can get damaged by light pen damage source sometimes
But ig cuz its different parts
bleak patrol
I think the simple solution would be to remove those bags from the tank entirely
It might look worse but at least those artificial weakspots will be removed
Or they can do what they did to the barrel and apply it to the bags
As in - just make it not deal any damage to the main health
bleak patrol
No cuppert that's not the issue at hand now
The issue is that the bags are light armor and transfer 100% of damage to main health pool
slim coral
Think about it if they added volumetric armor from WT to Helldivers
Those rocket would ricochet harmlessly off those bags
Very simple fix
bleak patrol
It's a fix, wouldn't call it simple

Idk I shot a war strider at angle side and my EAT ricochet off of the joint

Cyborg produced ammunition, I bet
Also why did you aim EAT at the joint
Just aim at the leg, general
Or, if you trust your aim, aim at the visors
bleak patrol
According to my calculations, it should work
I never tried it
I remember when War Striders were introduced and my first instinct was to blast the legs off
twin nebula
For striders? It one shots in the crotch im pretty sure
bleak patrol
And turns out that's how it works
And recently I learned that I can kill War Striders with the Eruptor if I hit the eye
More or less the same amount of shots as the Hulk takes
slim coral
For striders? It one shots in the crotch im pretty sure
I remember shooting the crotch and it counts as body
So I always shoot legs
Or joint

bleak patrol
And you probably will take no damage
Unless the rngesus decides to yeet shrapnel through your body
I've been using warp pack a lot, I started using it just to get into bunkers as a solo
But eventually I found out that it's kinda poggers for not dying
Also you can breach megafactory gates with warp pack

Walls are too thick

It flipped
But then I dropped it during extraction and it drew bot fire for the whole 2m timer

Don't be in the wrong spot at the wrong time
bleak patrol
angle is ergo
That is mostly correct. Angled grips are more ergonomic. In game they both reduce recoil and improve ergonomics, it's just that vertical is better at recoil and angled is better at ergonomics. The ergonomics are especially noticeable on weapons which are already bad at it like the Eruptor, with which you switch targets very slowly, but if you improve the ergonomics by slapping on an angled grip and wearing peak physique it becomes as nimble as a normal Liberator
tl;dr it makes sense
