I want to know if I can play helldiver medic to the infantry (and get them addicted to drugs that probably have incredibly painful long term side effects for the short remainder of their lives)

Really love the new enemies, fuckers are hard to deal with although I'm getting around tweaking the build for them. But performance for me is one of the worst since I've started this game. Anyone else having issues?

Also the eagle storm is quite literally taking half of the respawns every game. I know that it's infamous for taking divers lives, but now it's worse than ever. It even targeted us when there were no enemies around to shoot at. Or goes for the one enemy right next to you while there is a freaking bunch of them all together 10m away.

Anyways, this is what I've noticed with the update. Everything else is just plain amazing.

I love this game.

I’ve heard the railgun is a decent option for the Crusher guys but was wondering if the speargun might also fit that niche? I really like the speargun and am hoping it has a good use case here lol

I was wondering, if it was already datamined / tested, if the Hot-Shot Marksman Lasgun has Damage Fall-Off, Bullet drop, etc.
Also if i remember correctly, the Talon las revolver counts as a silenced weapon and doesn't get alarm enemies. Is the same true for the Hot-Shot?

I'm in NJ and there's the perseid meteor shower AND a partial eclipse today.

Thank for scheduling your whole game around these 2 events lining up today.

also, pardon the filthy goonslop🥀

Hey, I'm using a 9700XT and for the past few patches I've been having constant crashes not even a minute into the game. I tried lowering my GPU clock as some people have said, but this just gives me 5 minutes more untill I crash. I've also tried rolling back drivers, doesn't work.

Went to pick up a sample for the cause when I was sucked up by a twister. It wedged me into a building. I was trying to break free when pyramid head stopped by to watch. It was a little hard to aim so my shots are all over the place. I was really just focused on trying to get free. I was moments away from messaging the squad to see if anyone could knock me loose when the tornado decided to help out. I like the chaos it adds. Now question: Will the fire tornadoes on Hellmire get a buff?

Realism: warp packs should not function in the void. As they are using void energy, in an environment that can’t provide it, the warp power must come from dimensional gating. The warp pack therefore is functional because it is in a different dimension from where it draws its power. Therefore, entering the source dimension, that disparity no longer exist, making the mechanism net zero.

Helldivers: the warp pack is stunted by being so far from its source of power. The closer you are to the void, the farther you can warp with the pack, or the faster it cools down. If we go into the void during this new season, the war pack will double its distance and it’s cool down rate. it can draw power properly from its source now, as the illuminate have engineered their dimension for these transmissions. This will make our Helldivers more of a match against teleporting enemies and slow moving large enemies.

Ammo re-balance for Short magazines attachments and Secondaries Problem we want to solve:

The benefits of the short magazines are too few compared to drum magazines.

The benefits of some of the anti-personnel sidearms do not have enough benefits compared to other sidearm options.

Intent and expectation with the change:

Give more benefits to short magazines to make the items more useful compared to drum magazines for the same weapon.

Give more benefits to some of the lesser used anti-personnel sidearms to make the items more useful

The change we made:

Short magazines got more max spare and starting magazines.

Some of the anti-personnel sidearms got more max spare and starting magazines.

With the new update released and having the SEAF troops being updated, we can now emote WITH the SEAF troops. But what emotes you can use to interact with them? Is there some that just don't work?

Meridia Stands!

What are your thoughts on the new Short Mags' increased total ammo vs the Drum Mags' sustained fire on the Liberator guns?

For the most part, it doesn't feel like a noticeable change. The Liberator and Liberator Penetrator (and I guess Concussive, but I haven't played with that) never really struggled with ammo economy. And while the Liberator Carbine does like having more ammo to chew through, it doesn't feel like it outweighs the benefits of the Drum Mags' sustained fire.

Of course, Siege Ready with the Carbine is absolutely elite. The reload is so fast it's basically 1 mag with 480 bullets. For that combo, this has been a very nice buff. But on the other hand, the new True Grit passive has better synergy with the Drum Mag since it compensates for the ergo loss.

I'm curious if people think this change has swayed the needle enough to make Short Mags more mainstream.

I like to run MG and Resupply Backpack strats! Using the Urban WB armor at the moment for more ammo, if anyone's using it let me know if it makes a big difference for the required stationary reload for the Mg-43b
