maybe I'll feel better about it when it doesn't take so long to actually get on helldivers' servers. as is, it feels upsetting to get into the game and then have to put up with some moron who can't aim taking control away from me in intermittent bursts

Whirling posted:feel like I'm the wrong kind of person to play Helldivers because my friend bought me it and I get really frustrated when people friendly fire me for no real reason because I don't like sitting around doing nothing for a few minutes teach your friends to start hammering reinforcement. It's dumb to wait until the end of the fight

It's a launch, it's part of the fun. Thinking about getting it. Seems like it's got some legs as a pick up and play kinda casual game. How is matchmaking? Are people mic'd up? How agreeable is the rando doing Rambo poo poo?

i understand having queues at launch. there aren't queues tho, it just says "servers at capacity" and then tries to reconnect you again 50 seconds later

isn't the whole point of cloud computing that somebody else always has server hardware at the ready so you can very easily scale up operations by just purchasing more server time what the gently caress is taking so long

I think the "peak" enjoyment of the game being super fresh and fun is gone and people are gonna stop giving a poo poo because they can't play it and will move on to other games. The new greatest game of all time is out in 8 days and I will probably never play this again.

Seems like it's got some legs as a pick up and play kinda casual game. matchmaking is a bit hosed but 9/10 of the randoms I did play last week were great and more competent than me. Definitely very casual friendly. There's like 10 different difficulty levels so you can really fine tune it to how much effort you want to put in.

being completely honest, don't bother buying it yet, especially if you have kids or whatever and only a couple hours a night to play games. odds are you won't be able to play. poo poo is just too busted

also ff7r2 is gonna keep me from any other game for a good month and a half at least, after which point I'm immediately going to start p3 i fortunately got my $40 of enjoyment but i'll likely never be playing it again unless they fix the game and some neat new poo poo drops. i'm also at level 21 and the missions are getting kinda boring which isn't helped by the game not working so i can't even easily grind things out

Servers and matchmaking being a dumpster fire at launch just feels like something that is expected with online multiplayer games. Like if the servers were working perfectly people would be speculating that the numbers were inflated somehow.

I tried Project Zomboid, but cutting out mutations and only having a single enemy type made it super boring (not to mention I didn't like it being real-time).
