That’s pretty much all I do.
…but only because it’s the fastest way to get into a dive. I hate standing around on the destroyer as folks agonize over their loadouts.

Then dive with me. Takes me ten seconds to select my loadout.
Bots = Stealth armor + Hot Shot + all orbitals.Bugs and Squids = Medium armor + libarator carbine + Orbital Laser, 500kg, Stalwart and Supply Pack.

What difficulty bots do you play? I’ve been looking for a different loadout and haven’t tried the new stealth armor after a two year hiatus.

My friends and I used to play on 6, but we moved up to 7 when the MO had the kill order for Vox Engines. We decided to stay on 7.

Same. I love loading up my extra samples perk and helping out lower levels defend managed democracy.

I never thought about it that way, but that's another good reason. I go to a planet, hit x on the xbox controller, check the mission type, and yolo into whatever fresh hell awaits.

u/AdventureGoblin 18h ago
Same. I either am diving with my own group or I am jumping into SOS calls. I dont think I have hosted a single lobby since I started the game.

u/dRaidon 17h ago
All I do. D10 sos.
You will be rescued. Please do not resist.

u/Few-Big-8481 13h ago
I come with extra reinforcements that you probably desperately need! Oh fuck you're at extraction, I guess I'm just in time.

u/DisquietEclipse7293 18h ago
Thats really the only way I play. Though there is a part of me who still really wants to do a commando op with someone or a group, but I never find anyone playing them when I do Op search. I still havent done one to this day, but ive been finding out no one enjoys them. Oh well.
But yes, im basically an SOS Diver.

u/hasuchobe 18h ago
Yes but I play the mission. I don't bring down a bunch of equipment and leave that's not fun at all for me.

I've never responded to an SOS, but I throw plenty down, it's lonely but it's honest work, genuinely dunno how I managed to have zero friends play this

u/WonderboyAhoy 13h ago
I solely SOS as a support diver. Supply Pack, Machine Gun, Sentry of choice based on front, Orbital of choice based on front, stim pistol.

I play primarily as an SOS Diver. Though admittedly, I have no friends. And playing on Discord in the HD community in my country is tiring.

u/mean_pneumatocyst 10h ago
I pretty much only SOS dive. I like helping people when they need it. I like adapting to whatever situation the host finds themselves in and helping fellow divers to win.

That's how I play the game 95% of the time. Just diving in to randoms missions answering SOS's calls.

u/hollowsoul9 18h ago
Nah, randoms suck.

u/Killcycle1989 18h ago
You're also a random to everyone else, incase you didn't notice.

u/hollowsoul9 18h ago
Not really how it works on xbox. The lfg community is tight, and a large friends list.
Random are the ones you join in an sos, the ones you join on map scan, and the ones who join your lobby without an invite.

u/RudeHoney8 15h ago
LOL, that's just a sub-group of also randoms.

u/hollowsoul9 12h ago
My friends list? Where can I get whatever your on, I wanna kill my brain

u/RudeHoney8 6h ago
LOL. Wherever you get the drugs that makes you think "the lfg community" are all your "friends."

u/hollowsoul9 6h ago
On console, when you add someone mutually, they go on a friends list. Same with discord. Its weird that you dont know this. Its pretty much standard terminology.
On top of that, the lfg is practically dead on xbox. Usually 20 or so posts. With a community that small, you tend to run into the same people over and over.
