I did manage to pop a tank with a rocket pod run, that was cool to see.

Dinosaurs! posted:I expect it to have very few shots - say four or five. Grenades for your secondary, even if the range is awful, is extremely powerful. 1 in the gun plus 8 spare ammo unless they change it. But, it's got a pretty slow reload plus it only does 250 damage vs 400 for thrown normal or impact grenades and a much smaller radius, with an outer radius of 2m versus the impact and standard grenades 7m. It's basically a tool for killing factories and bug holes.

Every time I blow something up with a Spear I feel like the smartest Helldiver on the planet I'm at. Not everyone can make that happen.

If it's good enough to oneshot striders with direct hits it's good enough to find a niche.

I have found that when playing with pubbies sometimes it's a relief when you get down to zero reinforcements. Because then they can't keep respawning each other directly into the middle of 20 berzerkers over and over againReiley posted:Every time I blow something up with a Spear I feel like the smartest Helldiver on the planet I'm at.

johnny park posted:Do you have any tips for getting it to work consistently? Mashing the right mouse button kinda slowly in a rhythmic pulse to get it to acquire a target can help, seemingly by starting and restarting the target search function until it is satisfied and produces the triangle. Make sure you have a clear and unobstructed sight picture of your target. The triangle is shy and doesn't like hills or trees. Be patient with the triangle. It is timid but it can surprise you when it really has its courage worked up. The triangle hates Hulks and Gunships the most of all things and is most likely to target them quickly. The triangle is ambivalent to cannon towers and fabricators, and may require some coaxing to get it to find them. When the triangle appears, be sure to encourage it with vigorous mashing. It may only be green for a microsecond, and you'll want to be clicking your button when it does. Sometimes the triangle will get cold feet and back off before it turns green, this is fine. You will want to disengage your right click and click again to begin a new target acquisition. In these cases the triangle is still around, and odds are fairly good that it will make another attempt. It might not, though, so make sure to pump the rightclicks until it does. Above all things, be patient with your triangle. The trials of war will shake even the best of us. Give your triangle plenty of encouragement and plenty of Hulks, and it will reward you with a mountain of dead Hulks and, if you've really bonded with your triangle, dead buildings as well. Good luck out there, Helldiver!

lol just had another incident... 5 minute countdown starts, two of our squad just run back without saying anything and immediately call for evac. okay. that's fine we probably can't get all of them in time. so me and other guy start working our way back from the bug tunnels _all_ of us were previously doing.. but there's only a tiny sliver of land back to the evac zone and now it's filled with bugs so we're clearing it out.. it takes us a while because two of them are just sitting on the evac zone within range but as soon as the shuttle arrives, a level 27 dude immediately gets on the shuttle as we're trying to run and we can't make it.. other dude w/me had all my samples i collected that he picked up after i died. a bunch of reg and rare samples. what in the gently caress, honestly. can't tell me someone level 27 doesn't know not to get into a shuttle and again he was the lowest level so no way they we're being overrun on a challenge level map. edit: autocannon is great but apparently the sec gun bullet bounces off chargebacks but the turret autocannon's shells pierce the chargebacks.. :|

also helldivers.io is really cool... does anyone know if they written about how they're getting the data? i assume they're like screenscrapping their game on steam or something but i think you need to hover over the planets to get the data, right?

man I want to love this game, it's so good when it works, but 80-90% of my games result in disconnects. not just any disconnects, the game actively makes my internet crash, never had anything like it. all the suggestions online are about the firewall but that doesn't seem to have helped

Devs should just lean in to every bug in universe like no there is no targeting issue with the Spear the President’s nephew whose company got the contract for the guidance system chips assures us it is functioning properly and reports from the field indicating otherwise are to be ignored.

Are the game servers dying? Seems like the game is really choppy for me today and some loading screens seem to take forever. Also crashed after finishing my second mission so maybe it's just time to take a break.

I dont know why people try to go for map clears on blitz missions. You have twelve minutes you are not gonna survive an extraction fight without your stratagems get to the goddamn boat.

I had one that got pretty close earlier this morning, but the last 2 bases were right next to an airship foundry and we were down to 3 minutes by that point. It, uh, went south pretty fast.
