"I wonder if this works..." Splat. JBP posted:You see plenty of people running it in impossible difficulty and it fills a niche in the team. A common loadout is flamethrower and jump pack for blitz/egg missions. I like how my character just laughs madly if I'm going to town with the flamethrower.

Is the explosive handshake emote supposed to kick my friend to his own ship?  ZearothK posted:Thank you for doing your part. I don't have it unlocked yet. Rusty posted:I just got the 500kg and it's great. I like the big explosion, small radius so I can still yell at people to move if I screw up. It's also really pretty. Yeah, I've been running it all evening.

Radical 90s Wizard posted:Orbital gatling barrage owns til probably diff 5 or 6 It's good forever against bugs imo. Throw it at a bug breach and it'll easily kill everything up to and including hive commanders and bile spitters as they pop out. Throw it at your feet while running and it will clean up everything chasing you. The cooldown is super short and the aoe is big enough to be useful but small enough that you can use it in close range without killing yourself and everything you love.

I was trying out the orbital rail cannon tonight and I actually like it a lot, it's nice to be able to say "gently caress this thing in particular" when you need to delete a tank or a charger fast. Cooldown's a bit of an issue and the -10% doesn't sound too enticing but I might stick with it for a bit.

Threw a gatling strike pretty far away from the extraction point but the ext was on a hill and the shot angle was shallow, so the strike hit the hill. Whole team got wiped. One player boarded the shuttle as soon as we spawned, beginning the countdown to liftoff. Everyone else ran to recover samples but never made it onto the shuttle in time I apologised. Host was real pissed, but I don't have much sympathy considering they'd been dropping Eagles on me all mission

nothin like calling out an airburst in vc, telling people to back the gently caress up from the bug breach, and then watching 2+ people walk directly into the breach

a couple of my gaming buddies is refusing to get this and it’s bumming me out. It’s impossible to overstate how cool this game is. the gameplay is cool enough but the metagame and planned content and universe push it over the top. this is the best forty bucks (actually 80, I bought the premium battle pass and some currency without really knowing why)I’ve spent on a game in a very long time.

This is the first game in years the whole crew has actually purchased and played together. I feel like I'm fuckin' around in high school again. I've been a slob.

Ok, I don't know how long this will last, but if you go to the specials section on the steam front page, Helldivers 2 is $13 (but if you go straight to the game page, it's still 40). I just grabbed a gift copy and it seems to work. I'm sure it's a mistake, so get to it while you can. Edit: Oh my god, it's a scam. Do not follow this advice. I have no idea how it's possible. Search "Figurality game" and you'll see what I mean. Pigma_Micron fucked around with this message at 06:56 on Mar 1, 2024 |

Finally hit 20 and got my railgun. Also got g-16 frags. With both of those in my loadout, turns out that closing holes is a huge PITA! But the armor does pop off those chargers nice and quick. I can let one of my lower level pals deal with holes.

But the armor does pop off those chargers nice and quick. I can let one of my lower level pals deal with holes. i was wondering why a couple peeps i dropped in on this evening kept pinging a single bug hole while i was off blasting a different nest. then i realized they were both carrying railguns and were out of grenades they dropped a pod on it as i was finally getting around to them also i'm learning to hate the shield pack because it makes your hitbox bigger and i can't squeeze an autocannon shell by your ear. also those fuckin' drones are suicidal and will wander into my line of fire too

the beam drones annoy the heck out of me by occasionally searing my butt when they start turning to shoot at something and it makes me panic thinking a bug got on me somewhere.

I'm really glad they made the objective inputs audible so in the quiet lull between fighting we can all hear you gently caress up the inputs 3 times in a row

ErKeL posted:This is probably the only game I've ever played where I get teamkilled consistently and laugh at it. My favourite is always when someone's dropping a much needed airstrike only to have it knocked out of their hand from a charger or something and doom the entire squad. I usually laugh it off yeah. It shouldn't, but it irritates me someone else is treating the game way too seriously, only when they get hit I laughed out loud recently when at extraction someone said "my bad sorry". I looked around wondering what had gone wrong when I was suddenly blown into the sky

I've been using the trailblazer scout armor from standard warbond page 7 and loving it. I'll probably have to rely on the shield pack even harder when armor does get fixed but it's speed and stamina and stealthiness are just lovely. Tried doing a bug mission with the orange engineer medium armor that gives extra grenades, because bug holes, without the shield pack and I felt way too slow. Extra grenades are nice though, I need a light armor with extra grenades. Made it to helldive with some randoms last night and today I've been mucking around with different non meta stuff, because breaker, shieldpack, railgun, laser is super strong but I want to get good with other stuff. I feel like I really like all of the eagle options more than the orbital options, outside of laser and railgun.
