It's funny that in training Brasch's lines are canned recordings, if you stop to read the fine print monoliths a technician pipes up over the intercom and awkwardly tells you to please hurry up.

I know it's probably not working for everyone but I was able to get in (after about 20 minutes) and get into groups with random matchmaking. It seemed to work better on bug worlds than bots.

Helldivers think they're special forces because the ship needs a way to target things on the ground and you may as well let the sensor array think it's in charge if things go smoother.

Fishstick posted:Works like other eagles except you only get one use of it before it has to rearm. Compared to the other strikes I feel it's a bit underwhelming in terms of effectiveness other than for niche cases you can also solve in other ways (ie: getting rid of bile titans). Despite the huge explosion the actual effective range seems tiny, similar to Hellbombs. Ive tried it a couple times now and I always go back to some other strat to fullfill 500kg roles. Regular strikes or clusters wipe out groups more reliably than the 500kg, and the orbital laser/railguns do a better job of deleting big targets/objective structures.  v).

Phenotype posted:Well, it's a little weird because as disposable cannon fodder, you're given access to so much ordinance and initiative. Like, you'd think there would be some non-Helldiver troops that don't get orbital artillery synced to their command, just dudes with a helmet and a rifle that go off in groups much larger than 4, with a proper command structure and officers in the field telling them what to do. There are absolutely regular SEAF troops that are even more cannon fodder than Helldivers, their corpses are loving scattered all over every single map. Also one of the npcs on your ship talks about how they go in and mop up/secure areas after Helldivers clear them out.

Is there a trick/gimmick with the points of interest where it's just a note that says "sorry, I took the supplies"? Even when I've read the note the POI marker stays on the map, and it makes me wonder if there's something I'm missing in the area/just not shooting enough.

Tbh you usually have three objectives and you can limit yourself to firing the orbital laser while you are doing those objectives. Sometimes you don't need to fire it and have one for extract. It's so powerful that I think it's still worth using despite limitations.

Hows the orbital laser against titans?

The laser is great when you need to clear an assortment of trash and it's mixed between fodder and armored bugs, but you've got poo poo to Do so you just toss a laser and forget about it. The railcannon is great when you want to pop a titan or a charger RIGHT NOW. My setup these days has been clusters/laser/railcannon/railgun. edit: or would be, if I could loving log in and play this weekend at all.

I didn't understand the going prone bit in the tutorial and thought I was supposed to dive PAST the turrets so failed 4-5 times trying to nail it and an annoyed tech voice popped on being like "Uhhh... diving to prone is required to advance this portion of the training..." and it was so out of place with the over-the-top recorded general's voice lines it was perfect.

Au Revoir Shosanna posted:orbital laser or orbital railgun? Laser for me. Railgun is good for deleting one heavy target, but given time the laser does it too and doesn't overkill - it'll finish off the damaged hulks in the mix of all the trash and delete some other high value targets while it's at it. For destruction objectives they both do the job just as well, laser just takes a few seconds more, but will happily remove a couple factories from an outpost while it's zapping stuff.

If you are assisting the laser it becomes better too. Like you drop it onto a big horde and it melts all the small poo poo then destroys chargers while you add a little bit on with your personal AT weapons.

I'm not a computer genius - would it be that hard to implement a 15 minute afk kick? 15 mins seems generous enough to take a poo poo or make a coffee and come back while short enough to keep the number low and keep the logins moving.

I just found out the hard way that you can get automaton Tanks spawning on Medium difficulty.  I only had one Eagle bombing run left on me at the time, which I used on the tank. Cue me hiding in a hole nearby waiting for it to cooldown so I could deal with a tower with a tank turret on top that had me pinned down. I can't wait to play with actual people again.

huff... a random geometry spike spawned in front of the console so I couldn't use it also had a bug earlier where I couldn't get into the pelican, but at least there I got credit for completing the objective and an issue where the civilians took a super long circuitous path around the backside of the safety point instead of just... walking to it but otherwise game fun!
