Oneiros posted:there's a bug where charger armour stops working (at all) during certain animations. anything you've heard about autocannons penetrating and destroying the back legs in two shots or laser cannons destroying them in four seconds or whatever the gently caress is all nonsense based on this bug. the heavy machine gun can not penetrate charger armour outside the bug and is otherwise restricted to hitting their (fake weakpoint) rear end. the only weapons that can actually penetrate/strip their heavy armour are the various anti-tank rockets, an overcharged railgun, the lightning gun or the flamethrower (which ignores armour entirely) Oh, ok, I had heard that only applies to back legs but killed chargers in the front legs with laser cannon so I assumed that was something different

If you drop their asses quick and just blow your rockets you generally make them pay real real bad for taking you out....and sometimes that's all you need. Yeah I agree it's fine on Automatons in terms of damage. The real issue is that Rocket Devastators have extraordinary range and a single salvo from them will kill you. It's really just too dangerous to try sniping them because you only have a few seconds before they'll return fire. Vehicles might be a bit safer on bot missions since they'll be lower to the ground, but I have a feeling they may still end up as death traps for Devastator salvos.

This game would be better if your support weapon and backpack didn’t take up a stratagem slot. or if they were combined into one. I’d like to be able to take more than 2 blow poo poo up on demand strats.

One thing that helps is unlike a helldiver the mech can keep firing while moving left or right at full speed, which combined with continual suppressive fire means rocket barrages and cannon shots at range usually miss. Usually

I’d like to be able to take more than 2 blow poo poo up on demand strats. it'd trivialize most difficulties if you had 5 strategems. you can do 4 blow-upy ones RN if you have a buddy who can stay alive for long enough to let you mooch off their spawn cycles they aren't using for stuff, and by grabbing map-spawned specials. it's a good time scrounging IMO, you don't fall into habits and you get more diverse experiences. the break-action shotty is v fun too

actually we need a shooting range mode mode to test guns so you don't get stuck feeling rather useless cause a relatively balanced gun has a terrible reload (yeah i'm talking about the jar-5). or at least give a way to change your loadout mid game

I’d like to be able to take more than 2 blow poo poo up on demand strats. To be fair, you actually are given a whole free slot with this sequel as the original didn't have a complimentary supply drop strat. That poo poo was a mandatory slot outside of coordinated group play.

This is pretty solid advice imo. As long as you aren’t running the affix that adds 100% cooldown, you can be extremely useful with 4 air strikes in the 480 seconds your teammates need to spawn a new gun in Assuming you can’t find something otherwise. I’ll run Gatling and eagle cluster with precision and orbital rail and I’ve had multiple teammates call out how useful the spammable aoe is. The ability to instasnipe titans or towers is great too.

also picking a lame primary weapon is not the end of the world, as your team mates will drop primary weapons all the time and spawn with new ones

The game felt more graphically impressive to me when I was freshly enfranchised and still marveling at how beautiful an eagle droping 500kg of pure suffrage looks Nowadays I have so much liberty reverberating through my body every waking moment that it's hard to stop and appreciate a solid dose of freedom

I uninstalled this game because my whole computer was acting weird and I purged everything to finish an editing job so I missed the mech nonsense But before I did that I had a few matches where I needed people to leave my ship and I simply posted in the chat “hey guys thanks for playing, but I’m gonna get off/im gonna play with friends now, so take care.” And they left. That’s the way to do it

toasterwarrior posted:What option do I have against those eye of Sauron towers the bots have? Just 500kg bombs or orbital precision? I noticed standard airstrikes don't work Personally I always just use the 500kg, and I think it's probably the best way to deal with them period: wait for them to look away, then sprint up to underneath it and toss the beacon (just don't bounce it off the supports like an idiot): https://i.imgur.com/hn3zbtU.mp4

It looks a lot like Destiny 2 to me, which is funny because I remember thinking Destiny 2 was like astoundingly good looking when it was new but now it doesn't feel that special since Helldivers is just as pretty and more fun.
