Danith posted:If you're on win 11 and when you launch it, it shows the anti-cheat screen then it goes to a black screen with the game loading and then a moment later it closes, find the helldiver's .exe and in the properties set the compatibility to run as Win 8. Had to do this to get the game to run, otherwise played with randos via quickmatch, with cross-play on and had no problems in the couple of hours I've played so far. I was really hoping I could call my ship Guardian of Prosperity, but that was a no-go so I'm a Distributor of Freedom instead e] those flamethrowers are a goddamn liability on snow planets!

had a bit of fuckery today but mostly fine using quickplay (pc). got dropped from 2 games with no warning and had one game solo where I couldn't board the ship to extract . Although I think I might've caused that to bug out by dropping an orbital strike right on top of it...

Yea that sounds right, even between Heeth and the other bug planet, Angel whatever, I noticed a massive difference. All the different explosion effects are so so good, the napalm looks cool as hell. Minefields are legit probably more harmful than helpful but I'm tempted to grab the incendiary ones anyway

Yea I'm still using the eagle napalm pretty much because it looks rad and you can call it in super close. E) also the walking barrage owns

Baggot posted:- 💥 Invest in the Anti-Personnel Minefield or Incendiary Mines stratagems early. They are extremely useful at covering your back while escaping from attacks, defending choke points, and can even be placed at the Extraction Point at the beginning of a mission to prepare early as they do not seem to despawn over time. Kevin Bacon posted:Definitely do this. You want to be as efficient with these as you can as well, so throw those badboys down whenever it's off cooldown. The more often you place them, the bigger the covered area is, increasing the frequency of teamma- eh, evil bugs killed. This is some sicko poo poo

JBP posted:This is absolutely not true. The spew tracks you and there's no window in which the dive is safe. I have been spewed many times in the middle of what I'd consider a perfect dive. The only answer is don't get spewed on by hitting them with AT. That's weird, diving is my go to for avoiding their spew and its always been pretty reliable for me, maybe you're just leaving it too late?

you can dive from almost any height and you'll barely lose any health, but if you just run you'll die pretty easily. Guess thats what they give you helmets for E) also the fatty fat roundboy armour in the superstore looks real funny and im tempted to put up with bein hella slow for that Radical 90s Wizard fucked around with this message at 12:57 on Feb 13, 2024 |

You can also use AC shots to blow up the bot factories
|
# ¿ Feb 14, 2024 11:34 |

Oh yea I forgot to mention, to take out bot factories with the ac, you aim it higher than you would think, like at the hatch above the vent. As if you're trying to ricochet it downwards. Once you figure out where to hit it it's pretty reliable, but I found I had to be standing right in front of it. If the door opens you can put one in there too. Also on diff 5-6 if you have impact grenades you can kill a charger pretty quick by just hucking nades at its feet. e] Also also, that fat boy heavy armour from the shop owns, especially paired with the tiniest cape you have unlocked, but goddamn it sucks being so slow

I died in the tutorial when you have to dive under the turret fire, cos I was holding sprint and so immediately stood up and got cut in half Also repeating what's already been said, the 120 & 380 barrages are pretty poo poo due to their spread, but goddamn they are cool if you get 2 or 3 squaddies dropping them on the same spot.

toasterwarrior posted:NGL, my opinion on this game is souring because of all this "oh we're doing so well, have an extra XP weekend, we're blowing past all these AAA devs" narrative when server stability has been a rollercoaster since launch and is now going straight into hell because of the weekend thing. Also, it's frankly absurd that we're getting peak players at 300k (and I even have crossplay on) and I'm still having to play some runs as solo because matchmaking has been broken this entire fuckin time They haven't been pushing that at all, lol.

Phenotype posted:Well, it's a little weird because as disposable cannon fodder, you're given access to so much ordinance and initiative. Like, you'd think there would be some non-Helldiver troops that don't get orbital artillery synced to their command, just dudes with a helmet and a rifle that go off in groups much larger than 4, with a proper command structure and officers in the field telling them what to do. There are absolutely regular SEAF troops that are even more cannon fodder than Helldivers, their corpses are loving scattered all over every single map. Also one of the npcs on your ship talks about how they go in and mop up/secure areas after Helldivers clear them out.
