I've found the majority of my credits inside those and my rate drastically picked up once I realized you could open them. You have to explode those!? damnit I've passed by so many thinking the point of interest was just a couple ammo boxes on the floor

Honestly I would probably have double-dipped and picked it up on Steam, but the game isn't cross-progression (despite being Sony first party?). For all their faults MS is just better about this poo poo than Sony is, and they should probably figure it out if their new thing is going to be forcing all their first party studios to do GAAS/online games.

Gamerofthegame posted:grenade launcher lets you kill holes from afar so that's already top tier, but it's still taking up a slot for dealing with armored enemies. It specifically says the grenade launcher is anti-armor, is that not true? I saw someone playing with one and an ammo pack. They killed themselves a lot but they also killed chargers fast. In my experience though I've unloaded whole clips onto chargers and haven't killed them. Maybe you gotta aim for the weak point anyway? That wouldn't be anti-armor though.  e: Ah it says armored "infantry." Does that mean it's good against bots? I haven't played against them yet.

The haptics are amazing, but after a long playsession and pulling the haptic trigger on the shotgun maybe several thousand times I had a shooting pain up my arm from my finger. Had to switch the aim and fire buttons back to L1/R1 like I do with every other game, so no more adaptive triggers for me. But the haptic rumble is still great.

had a bit of fuckery today but mostly fine using quickplay (pc). got dropped from 2 games with no warning and had one game solo where I couldn't board the ship to extract  . Although I think I might've caused that to bug out by dropping an orbital strike right on top of it...

Matchmaking is definitely fucky and held together with duct tape, was able to join friends ship a couple times and get booted when we dropped, then joined them mid-mission from steam menu and it was rock solid the rest of the night

DeadFatDuckFat posted:Anyone using the heavy body armors? I feel like all my deaths are to one shot stuff anyways so I might as well take the better stamina/speed. But maybe heavy armor is better at higher difficulties I do, I really like them. It sucks when running to a new point, you'll fall behind due to worse stamina. But, I find myself surviving way more hits so I think it's worth it. Makes it fun too since you don't die immediately your can scramble around like a crazy person trying to reload and get strats in and use a stim Finally unlocked the backpack drone as well and man I love that little dude Danith posted:Is the friendly fire stat the amount of friendly fire you did to people, or the amount of friendly fire you took?

Danith posted:Is the friendly fire stat the amount of friendly fire you did to people, or the amount of friendly fire you took? Pretty sure it's outgoing friendly fire. Overall the game kind of owns. Been playing it on medium with some friends that don't have any Helldivers 1 experience to get the hang of it and it's a little... thin on the easier difficulty. Pretty long lulls without any bugs even when standing on objectives. The switch to third person was overall more successful than I thought it would be. The "oh gently caress OH gently caress MORE BUGS" feeling is hugely amplified. I do think there was a little lost... tactically? Not sure how to phrase it. I'm just not sure it was a strict upgrade but I was a big Helldivers 1 fan so it might just take me some time to warm to it. The friendly fire poo poo is still the absolute most hilarious. Mortar turrets when a charger breaks in to the middle of your party. Gun turrets when a second wave sneaks in from behind. Eagle strafing runs that are just a liiiiittleeeee too wide for your boy that's off the line. Your buddy tripping over a cliff, ragdolling and dropping his orbital strike strategem pokeball at his feet (and yours). The one random that joined your squad asking "Wait, is this thing armed?" two seconds before the hellfire bomb goes off at the objective. And of course just the general shenanigans of walking in to everyone's line of fire all. the. time. And it's never not funny.

I played the tutorial and one solo mission on trivial so far and I already think this has potential. For my next game I tried doing public matchmaking and it kept failing. Are there any tricks to get it to work on ps5 or just keep spamming join until it works? Also, what's the new discord for this game?

We decided it wasn't really worth bringing the recoiless over to the bots, at most you'll likely want EAT for the possible tanks and even then they're slow enough you can likely just orbital them. The bots are loving terrifying if you don't get a handle on the situation though. We ended up completely nuking patrols as fast as possible to stop them from getting off a flare because otherwise you're fighting for 10 minutes. The HMG emplacement, if you can get it set up and in a good spot will shred them though, most of what they bring gets completely annihilated. Also the autocannon can two tap hulks in the head.

Maybe you gotta aim for the weak point anyway? That wouldn't be anti-armor though. It kills sub-heavy robots faster than just shooting them, and can also get those robots driving walkers from the front, though that may be slash damage hitting the pilot. It seems to bounce off the big bugs unless I got them in the back, but I think it's faster than using a gun

Does the difficulty in this game scale based on the number of players? I was playing with a fried earlier as a duo but if you get attacked by the same amount of stuff whether its 2 or 4 people in the game I guess that's probably a bad idea.

Haven't 100% confirmed it, but fairly sure its got scaling based on player count. Missions when I have a full stack certainly seem to have more enemies than when I duo

A couple of us in Discord made it all the way up to Impossible tonight, and that was including a full operation on Extreme against the bots! ...might have been scarier than the Suicide Mission runs against bugs, tbh. Was greatly surprised at how much you can still get away with while still having the missions being a chaotic mess, even once you enter the hard tiers, but we wiped on the 2nd mission of the Impossible operation so that might be the limit just because there's so many enemies.
