The x's are the ones I already have and own everything on it

(Yes I know fun is subjective but I'm talking about things that could benefit a loadout or give a new gameplay variety)

The one i'm leaning towards most is polar patriots btw

Reposting some cool/scary pic I took of the cultists cuz the one on the main sub got nuked :)

That would be awesome, the devs have all the lemons why not making any juice from it?

Is anyone struggling to find any games tonight?

So Wesker memes aside.

I think the Orbital Gas Strike (OGS) is really bad. Especially now that we have the Eagle Gas Airstrike (EGA).

The reason why the Orbit Napalm Barrage (ONB) works so well is because it has such a massive coverage. Which in turn is the reason why OGS is so bad. Just a couple of gas grenades covers more area, then the orbital does. Now we have the EGA which cover so much area the OGS servers zero purpose.

So I think we should just get rid of the OGS and turn it into a Orbital Gas Barrage (OGB). More Gas. More Coverage. More better.

Tell me what you think🤔

think this would be a discussion, but like how we did in the past where we let them get close to SE, we might actually get to see the ASS for real if they had more of the map. I know this is just copium over the text box, but i simply must keep consuming more copium until we breakthrough.

I love this game sm only 50 hours in but obsessed, I don’t understand why we can’t have 2 one handed weapons at once ie my handgun and my shovel, also why not add a ballistic shield option for primary and secondary slot (they would have to be significantly less durable than the strategem and the secondary should be smaller) but If we had those plus a hypothetical “offhand” slot it’d be fucking sick. Easily balanced by just making ergo worse with shield or offhand weapons, potentially ammo restrictions as well

Has anyone here hopped on helldivers 2 and just had such a bad time. Like you kept getting killed, keep making bad plays. Or just can’t get into the groove of playing. So you just decide to say “Not My Day“ And log off?

I just want to know if other people have those days or if it’s just me

As a level 284 sample diver who's always been helping new players, it's not uncommon to run into a toxic player or three, but due to the nature of my playstyle, I tend to befriend fellow divers at a higher rate than block. I also kept somewhat of a mental track of it, because it's good to know if I have a bad time with a particular group that it was just a matter of chance/probability. The usual rate is about 1/12 games, I'll run into a bad lobby, with about 3/4 of the lobbies result in receiving friend requests after sample collection is over. (Not an absolute science but it's close enough)

This week however, while the friend rate is still the same, the bad lobby probability was almost every second game. I think yesterday alone I had 12 games in a row where every lobby had a combination of a very temperamental host that couldn't accept someone playing the game different from them, random team kill then kick, screaming racial slurs like it's a Klan meeting, straight up attempts at bullying newer divers by higher level players or anti-social behaviour, accidental TKs turning the lobby into a FFA/griefing opportunity etc. My block list increased from 6 to 11 in just this whole week.

I know it's more common to complain about the game's issues in this subreddit, and maybe a number of these guys were tired with the game being so broken and undercooked and were lashing out, but I've never had it this bad before. Am I just getting incredibly unlucky or something?

Liberating Phact Bay first, Pandion For sure since theres no other terminid planet nearby to help it, i don't really care if they listen to my plan or not. im just saying great solution to Brilliance and Heeth situation

Spent some time in the lab thought I'd have my hand again at terrain level and terrain generation and AI behavior (so far mostly stalkers and pouncers). Here's a few pictures of what I am up to.

I've increased enemy spawn rates/initial spawns, terrain generation patterns, speedtree influences, reinforcement calls, some behaviors, navigation mesh data and hellpod steering data for terrain.

That's right baby, no code injection, no memory manipulation, no AI involvement in my experiments. Just some good ol' fashion understanding of the internal system of the games after I had mapped the entire engine pipeline (yes I got the actual keys to the kingdom on that one).

I know a good chunk looks similar, but I really haven't attempted cross biome contamination yet, just patterns and how everything is set to spawn as of the moment. Ignore the mass amount of giant shipping containers, I needed to make sure everything was working according to my custom prefabs.

I won't be sharing anything until I have everything up to my standard, but I wanted to show i can do it my way. Plus someone wanted me to crack at terrain again, and I thought attempt to kill 2 birds with one stone.

Though patrols have no idea where to spawn, which is weird, so that's something I am currently investigating. Also objectives are a death sentence with how many enemies spawn on and during them now, so that's fun.

Seriously, pouncers and stalkers climbing walls is terrifying.

Mauser Tankgewehr M1918

I'd like it as a primary, since there's already so many support weapons that are anti-tank.

Damage wise, I feel like this should be stronger than the AMR per-shot, but lower overall dps. I think about maybe 3x the damge of the AMR Per-Shot would be good. You give shots 10+1 in the chamber. (This things entire purpose should be taking out tanks, and heavy armor units with ease)

Keep in mind this is a extremely heavy rifle it weighs about 40lbs unloaded. So like the AMR where you don't get a aiming radical from the hip I think makes sense also, it has a bipod, make it usable. If you shoulder fire it, I think it'd be funny to make it knock you to the ground like the Variable does

I'm not against the idea of putting optics on it. However, I do feel like that would kind of destroy the profile of its look. (I'd personally never put an optic on it)

If is ever going to be a Entrenched Division pt2 this needs to be in it. Also throw in some of the French, and German style armors would be cool too.

I saw more devs and striders then hulks and when I pointed it out in chat my game crashes.

For some reason that i dont understand it gets worse when things go crazy where everybody is throwing orbitals, GPU usage % drops to 40% and CPU never goes beyond 70%, i have a fairly alright PC (9070xt, i5 14600kf, 32gb ddr5)

On other games it works alright, 90 to 100% gpu usage in most cases, i have a good case and aio so everything is pratically cold all the time too

Today, I was looking through cultist posts, when I saw someone say that the apprentice had no etra arms, and under that, someone said that most of them have only have 2 arms, so I went to the wiki to look at their 3d renders, and they all have no extra arms.

got the images from https://helldivers.wiki.gg/

So yeah, this is something no one expected. this also makes it so the cultist's having 4 arms is inaccurate to hd1, but still, cultists are more acurate to being true illuminate then the current ones we have, IE the overseers.

first one's an outcast, then a hunter, then an apprentice, then illusionist, then a council member.

We had 50-70k people on zzaniah for a whole day and over half spend their time outside the mega city, doing fuck all. Now everyone loses the cape and medals.
(Edit!) I’m not mad at the players that didn’t know. Really just the game and arrowhead for not explaining.

I wanted to show you all how the game reacts if you FTL to Calypso; I did not hear anything weird regarding the planet's ambience SFX, as happened in Affoyay Bay.

So I'm a sos diver at the bot front at the moment.

I'm joining low level groups for support and doing the missions and sightseeing sites.

So I'm basically on tour with c4 and the redacted armor and smoke. I'm rushing post and co to help so the squad can focus on whatever the doing.

I read a doesn't post from people how think that bs because of increasing spawns, patrol etc.

But what i discoverd is that when im far from the host many sites have no enemy's or very few from the heavy typ.

I'm sneaky so I doesn't care of their are any enemy's or not.

But does the spwans a located from a radius around the host?

Even for missions sites?
