jokes posted:I feel like a fast-moving, extremely delicate horde faction would slot in well. The bugs are close but I haven't had to deal with sheer volume of enemies, even though we have really awesome tools to deal with exactly that (airstrikes baby). 40k Orks ripoff faction. No heavy armour at all. Lots of screaming and waves of charging dudes. Trucks with light/medium armour full of guys; if you pop the truck the guys don't die they just fall out.

Illuminant faction from HD1 sucked. Those light barriers that blocked you off from the rest of the squad were extremely unfun, sadistic design.

idiotsavant posted:oh my god universal incendiary mine unlock for the day is such a goddamn troll. Quickplays are all a shitshow right now. Why yes, Mr Pubbie, tiny flaming explosion mines all over the objective/drop point/up my hellass are incredibly helpful i'm so glad youre using all the strategems you can! Not too worried about the pubbies personally there. Partially because I just unlocked the 380mm barrage and well, I am the menace. But it's just sooo much fun to call in a strike with the intent of "that general direction has to go away."

The first time one of my buddies used the 380, he got knocked back by an RR backblast, dropped the beacon right in the middle of us all, and no one even got clipped by any of the incoming rounds.

Phenotype posted:Wait holy poo poo this happened to you too? It was when I was trying to link my Playstation account, which it said WAS mandatory, and it made me do this stupid matching puzzle 8 times, and then I guess I messed one up, so it made me do it 8 more times, and again it said "that wasn't quite right" and made me do it again. It took me literally four repetitions = 32 puzzles to get in. Like what on loving superearth I felt like a goddamn 3rd grader being told I couldn't go to recess until I got 100% on the worksheet.

It is legitimately hilarious to watch the different reactions. The newer players just kind of back up a bit thinking they will be safe. The true Helldivers toss their own barrage on the pile and run like hell.

The way to use 380s is have all four players throw them at once.

People are gonna be thrilled to learn that the reason Super Earth was at war with the tentacle Protoss is because “they have WMDs” Hopefully they bring back the illuminates as like, “terrorist insurgents” because they’ve been put in internment camps since the last war.

So we extracted, went to the ship, but the rewards screen just isn't popping up. Guess I'll sit here for another minute or so. Luckily it was a 5 minute long defense mission.

Games that are only releasing on current gen consoles load so fast that occasionally I get genuinely a little annoyed that I no longer have time to get up and grab a drink or something. That and no longer having to restart to install graphics drivers feels like terrible magicks.

Black Griffon posted:I also didn't get any of the corn puzzle poo poo, always have 2fa It requires me to do the same 40 questions and then fail process to enable 2fa, so that doesn't help. What did help is asking one of my family members to create an account for me which they managed to do with no problem (just a simple 2 question captcha and a much easier one than my brain melter), and then i linked that to my steam account. So that's part done, at least! I repurchased the game, confident i had solved the problem and excited to play, finally got to do the tutorial and get my cape (which took multiple tries since I kept getting booted due to network issues)... and discovered that attempting to select a mission from the mission select screen instantly crashes my game. Man, this is a bad week. It started out with blood and sewage and really hasn't gotten any better since then, I just wanna shoot some goddamned bugs and chill out for a while. ;_;

Today's light armor superstore helmet is a little TOO on the nose, Arrowhead, but I appreciate the sentiment/commitment to the bit. Then again, even Verhoeven had to all but paint swastikas on the dropships and it still wasn't enough.
