Turin Turambar posted:I know they are some aliens, kinda Protoss inspired, but I don't know anything else, didn't play HD1. So tell me wonder/horror stories about them! They had a unit that shot an orb that if it hit you, reversed your controls. They had another unit whose sole purpose was to throw up energy walls that stopped everything except other Illuminates and their weapons. The walls deployed from the source unit but sometimes angles made it tricky to hit, especially if another wall unit covered it. The rest of their roster was fairly standard, with their army leaning more towards melee/short range. So one counterplay to them was the jetpack, which was much more spammable in HD1 as it replaced your dive. You could just hop over the walls, or spam the jump key if you were confused. The grenade launcher was also great against them since it fired in an arc over the walls. Mechs were absolutely useless against them since they were way too slow to avoid the walls and would inevitably get trapped even if they didn't die right away(the walls one-shot anything in their path when first deployed)

Their heavies are these fortified shielded units that project shield walls that limit your mobility until destroyed. Their units all get shields as the difficulty scales. They have basic melee units with cloaks. Their scouts have enormous ohko sniper range, later on these same scouts are shielded and cloaked. They have two medium elite variants that throw guided energy orbs at you, one of these reverses your controls. They spawn endless amounts of shielded Protoss dragoons

I wonder if they could ever introduce planets where there are two enemy factions, instead of every battle only having one. They could fight among themselves, Halo style!

Two factions maybe but I doubt we'll see the other factions fighting, given that we're the ones attacking everyone.

I hope that they introduce upgrades that put two backpacks/support weapons in each hellpod so that people can more easily share stuff with the team, and have everybody equipped without giving up cool explosions.

If a player exceeds their reinforce limit, the mech drop strategem for other players instead drops the mech with the barely-animated corpse of that teammate inside, trapped in combat hell for mission duration, complete with unhinged vocalizations.

Turin Turambar posted:Pretty cool if they are going to introduce a fully featured weapon mod system. With stuff like emplacements already in the game itd be cool to see semi-persistent maps where more than 4 people defend territory from potentially more than one enemy faction. It would be fun to fight a long strategic battle and would also be a different meta than shield+rail+airstrikes if you are digging in at or assaulting fortified positions to advance.

ninjewtsu posted:those shield walls everyone is talking about? if you were standing where the wall was going up it would instagib you. probably responsible for more of my deaths than any actual attacks. If they touched something that was completely immobile like a parked APC they wouldn’t destroy it, but if that APC hadn’t come to a total stop then it would get instantly destroyed and kill everyone inside. and it was naturally very easy for large vehicles to get hit by the wall. they were almost worse than the reversed controls (which applied to stratagem inputs too) Before the shield was deployed the wallball also had tank level armor so you were not stopping 90% of them before they deployed

Having certain planets liberated or controlled should do more things. Like a certain planet should be a Bot tank manufactury where if they have it they get increased chances of dropping tanks or one where all our high-explosive ammo is made so if the Terminids take it over those become much harder to use on missions.

the unabonger posted:Hooo boy is the arc thrower fun, and also very easy to do team damage with. Yeah, that gun makes me more nervous than any other when other people have it, if you accidentally get targeted you're insta-fried. Of course the same could be said for some other weapons but the arc thrower is hungry for helldiver flesh.
