I tried to do the mine daily, I love using mines in most games, but the mines in this game (at least the anti-personnel mines, I think the fire ones are a little better) are very weak. Takes 3 or more to kill a devastator or medium bug, patrols regularly walk through a small gap in the middle, get randomly destoryed by other people's stratagems and scattered enemy fire and explosions, has the same cooldown as just using orbital gatling or orbital airburst or orbital gas to just kill something instead. The proactive use of placing them before bad things happens has people stumble into them later and get mad and kick you from the lobby, because it is NOT OK to place mines and have them kill an ally but reckless use of eagle clusterbomb is just fine and the rapid deployment system to remove their deploy time is still non-functional

While I completed the daily in a single mission.  Patrols of weak enemies are dumb as gently caress. Drop mines, shoot at patrol to get their attention and hopefully call reinforcements. Watch them all walk right into my mines. Get like 15 kills a pop.

TIL that if you hold down R you can adjust the zoom distance and rate of fire on various guns.

To be clear, I meant I used the opportunity of the daily existing to go in solo and do some testing, you'll get it done a lot faster by having 4 people in a lobby all using it (allies kills count) or by saving it for the densest packs, but that's not a good showcase of observing it closely to see how effective it can be

there should be an extra stratagem slot, but only for the five or ten least popular stratagems from the previous week let Shield Relay and Smoke Strikes have their day in the sun

Also, I noticed some packs must have patrolled though my unexploded mines while I was in other parts of the map doing helldiver things.

Super quick cool down and it can protect from a lot of fire. It takes off so much pressure when fighting bots, people can really pick their shots and strats long enough to break the back of a bot drop, or it can keep an auto cannon turret alive long enough to do work instead of dying instantly to rockets. Smoke strike does suck though. Eagle smoke is better.

I think meteors can kill bug nests if you get lucky, I was doing a mission with some friends earlier and we'd get popup for nests destroyed while we were being swamped by bugs far from any nest on the map.

I really wish I had some way of knowing which of my strategems and weapons was effective. If I take mines on a mission I’d love to know how many times I used them and how many kills they got me. I don’t mind not having damage numbers and such but maybe some tracking showing what %of damage came from mines, or what % of damage on chargers came from my auto cannon vs tail gum orbital. Those stats are just fun but would also help make better strategic and tactical decisions.

When you are joining through quickly play are you able to see the type of mission on the briefing or is that blocked because the host is already on the map? I have been showing up to some missions ill prepared.

When your destroyer warps it will say the name of the planet and AUTOMATON CONTROL or TERMINID CONTROL. I do wish it was more obvious from the pre-drop stratagem select screen itself, but you should be able to press Q (or click on the tab) to see the mission briefing. e: Example clips https://i.imgur.com/DHDWeLq.mp4 Diephoon fucked around with this message at 17:35 on Mar 10, 2024 |

You can’t see the type of mission, but it’s almost certainly a bug. Same with some boosters being greyed out even though no one already in the mission is using them.

lol I had this exact thing happen to me yesterday, such that I checked the player list to be sure it wasn't from my game shooting the lamppost made it fall down to the ground, but I'm not sure if it was low enough to actually climb in and use from there Arc Hammer posted:TIL that if you hold down R you can adjust the zoom distance and rate of fire on various guns. yeah, it ain't just the railgun, which is now extremely anemic unless you set it to "unsafe" like a true spreader of managed democracy

Turin Turambar posted:Game is still so buggy, as I play more and more I notice many of my deaths are BS. In the last game me and another players were stuck in water, so we had to be killed a third player. yeah they explode constantly for no reason, or literally just on drop. thats why i called it a waste of a slot, cause you can easily just have it do nothing at all via no fault of your own. it jsut sucks to bring something that prevents some other stratagem and then just disintegrates mid air for no reason, or detonates because you fired a rocket while moving, or gets clipped by a rocket that the player would survive but annihilates the mech.

Mode 7 posted:I like the 2nd option, seems to be the most popular one so far. More options! Option 1 - Gradient  Option 2 - Gradient /w Emboss  Option 3 - Gradient /w Outline (Meh?)  Option 4 - Gradient /w Emboss + Outline (Meh?)  My vote would be Option 2. I don't know how Option 4 would look on a white background, but it might be useful as there's no noticeable difference for the Dark Mode crew? Also I wholesale copied from this dude on Reddit when I did my rework

what causes stratagems to be jammed and scrambled in the menu? i joined someone, he died before i landed, and i couldn't reinforce no matter where i ran, which i'm sure was very annoying for that player to watch

Arc Hammer posted:Haven't unlocked 7s yet since you need to complete operations to unlock higher difficulty and I have no friends. It's weird that I can't join someone else's operation in progress. I didn't see this answered. You can absolutely join a mission in session. use quick join. pick a planet first that you want to fight on then hit it. You could even jet lucky and join on their 3rd mission and unlock it straightaway. You join on whatever difficulty you are set for when you hit the button to join quickplay. LazyMaybe posted:I just always use the hellbomb callin, frankly. It's usually not that hard to storm in if you don't currently have a dropship on your rear end, and once you're inside the enclosure you've just got to pop a few bots and arm the bomb. Bug or not the hellbomb doesn't always appear on the call in list. Infinitum posted:More options! The top 2 don't work at all if you aren't in night mode.

Ion storms are an environmental hazard that do it temporarily. I don't mind those, but I do detest the delay that seems to be a difficulty setting thing. Don't tell me primary weapons need to be not-great because you want me to use strats, then sabotage strats on almost every mission, fuckers.
