Play posted:Yesterday my camera would fly up into the air as if I was a spectator, but I was still alive just standing there on the surface according to my team members. When I tried to move the camera would just shimmy around randomly way up in the air. They had to kill me to reset it. 1440, optimized settings from that vid helped a bit but its still not great? Like its playable but i really want 80+ fps

tried out orbital walking and gatling barrages today walking barrage is actually really dope as a way to open up on a spawner or objective because you can toss it somewhere they don't see, and they freak out without necessarily spotting you. had the surviving bugs at one point form up into a swarm and charge off in a random direction away from me because i'd been hidden and they didn't see me throw the glowing beeping light ball. does a good job of popping bug holes and buildings too. gatling barrage lasts a lot longer than you'd think, is good for holding down a point because it chain staggers and will do enough to put down non-heavies, but it also lasts a lot longer than you think and lusts for the blood of helldivers. gas cloud is probably better area denial just because it's a lot easier for friends to avoid

I got my first titan kill last night. It survived my 110 strike so I put a recoilless shot down it's throat.

I cannot wait for them to nerf the breaker. When I run through a crowd of titans CQCing them and causing them all to explode simultaneously when I sheathe my katana it is ruined because I know I have an overpowered shotgun on my back that would have made it all that much easier. A miserable crutch for the weak and cowardly. Pathetic.

been thinking about those games that tried to scam people into thinking they were discounted helldivers. doesn't steam hold funds like that for a couple of days anyway before passing it on to the developers in case they need to do any refunds? surely they didnt expect to actually see any of the money from doing that because its not like valve are just gonna let them keep the money

What's weird is I feel like automatons are harder than bugs at difficulties <=5 but easier at anything harder. Higher difficulty bugs will do poo poo like throw 20 hunters and 3 chargers at you. Sometimes a bonus bile titan or two for flavor. Not to mention the countless little lovely bugs.

Yeah, I tend to agree. My friends and I have a wee level 5 babby in the group and the automatons seem to be kicking his rear end on difficulty 4 missions where bugs didn't. I think it's the ranged component. Rocket devastators are absolute bastards when you're new.

At least from my perspective as a newbie, I agree. I've only done bots once or twice, but it's a completely different experience coming off of focusing on bugs for the directives. Suddenly instead of everything trying to get in your face, it hangs back a bit and plinks at you and you need to respond to that otherwise they'll keep doing that.

Some good moments tonight I'm stuck in a bile titan mission with 2 low level randoms because the 4th player left and SOS doesn't work. They both bring absolutely nothing capable of hurting a titan. I cross my fingers and bring my RR. When we make it to the titan I manage to shoot it twice and die reloading for a third. The poor guys are emptying their MGs into its belly non stop accomplishing nothing. We spend most of our reinforcements either continuing to MG the titan or picking up the RR and dying before I can reload, until finally I manage to drop my pod onto its head and kill it. Later, in a much better group with a friend, things have gotten a bit frantic as the team is spread out. I die and get reinforced on top of two chargers while the team books it. I notice a hellbomb on the ground, lose the chargers around a corner, run past it, trigger it, and hit the dirt. The chargers and other bugs all die while I live. Game good.

The higher difficulties aren't for me at the moment, I do have all the strats but I have so much more fun playing in the 4 to 6 difficulty bracket than the higher ones Getting surrounded by 3 bile titans is a very impressive sight but not superbfun to play in for me

Yeah 4 is where I like to chill, but it can swingy. Got quickmatched into the creek at 4, first mission was a bit of a snooze, second mission was utterly insane. Bots everywhere, hulks, a tank. Also I see why people are going on about the creek, fighting the automatons in the jungle was so much fun.
