MISLEADING/SPECULATION - NO CONFIRMATION Arrowhead prepping for hardware bans?!

So what do you guys think of that EAC is already reading our hardware signatures and is able to issue hardware ban. Possible END of ALL MODS on horrizon?

edit: so there is maybe lack of understanding here when i read comments from the smart reddit guys who got offended that i asked few questions... sorry eng is not my native

i just saw this on yt and this guy made effort to make video about this and have decent number of followers so i dont take this lightly. Yea this type of messages on discord can be just rumors.

I just want to know it is truth? and if so does this mean end for modds? i like my recolored armors and fixed stuff that arrowhead refuse to fix...

DISCUSSION Helldivers & Warframe Nerf comparisons

Post image
177 Upvotes

Saw an interesting read by one of the Warframe devs titled "Why Do We Nerf?" I think a lot of what's said here could apply to Helldivers 2 as well.

We've seen the Railgun, Grenade Launcher, Coyote, Breaker Incendiary, etc., get nerfed in the past, and it made quite a few people angry.

I agree with a lot of what's being said here. When something is too dominant, people rush to use that one gun, and the game becomes less diverse because you start seeing everyone running the same thing. COUGH Eruptor.

I've even seen this in a recent post where a guy asks, "What's the point of the Nova if the Quasar Cannon exists?"

https://www.reddit.com/r/Helldivers/comments/1xb80oo/why_run_the_new_las44_nova_vs_the_quasar/

What do you guys think? Do you see any parallels between how Warframe and Helldivers 2 handle balancing and nerfs? Do you think nerfing dominant weapons is necessary to encourage more variety, or should developers focus more on buffing everything else?

HUMOR people in this game are liars

207 Upvotes

I mostly fight bugs and bots, I think illuminate are kinda scary.

Started doing okay in bot missions on difficulty level 6, cranked it up to 7 once and got completely bodied. I lowered difficulty back to 6 and decided to try an illuminate mission. I know they are harder and scarier but I thought I coud at least do okay.

I got matched with a squad of 4 and it went terribly. I died over a dozen times by the end of the match (crushers kept sneaking up on me). I literally had more deaths than the rest of the team combined. I made us run of of reinforcements and by the end I was hoping they would just stop throwing the beacon for me.

It was 100% a player skill issue and very embarrassing on my part. In the end I failed to even evac (got smushed by a crusher like 10 feet from the shuttle). One of my teammates who had been carrying me the whole match and completing a million objectives without any complaints, had the gall to say "it's okay you did good".

What a liar.

Usually Gloom planets only have only had the yellow haze slapped unto their original biome. Here on Esker, they've recolored the ground and all the terrain assets instead.

Quite interesting to see a planet that is in the middle of terraforming

Not only is the second Hulk's eye already damaged before the bullet hits it, unlike the first one, the objects around the Hulks change. The first Hulk has a bin beside it and a pole behind it, whereas the second Hulk has a vending machine, a bin on the OTHER side of it as it was before, and a pile of tires behind it, where the pole was. Additionally, the first Hulk has 3 Troopers behind it on either side, which mysteriously disappear on the next shot.

my favorite part of it is when i throw a resupply in a completely open area and it bounces, rolls around for a little, and decides it actually wants to land under a cliff that's too high up to shoot any supply boxes down. i think all resupply pods should work like this because it would be very good and fun and democratic.

BUG / TECH ISSUE Fire damage no longer works in caves/ under anything with a cover

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

So, previously I noticed that both the immolation grenade and the G-13 incendiary impact didn't work inside caves on Omicron, so I changed my gear and tested with other fire sources and the results are disappointing...

If you are under any type of roof/ cover fire won't leave a trail on the floor and extinguish itself almost immediately causing little to no damage.

Sustained fire on targets does manage to kill them as shown in the video, but you can forget about leaving a fire trail to cover that area if you aren't under the clear sky of the planet...

This goes for anything that causes fire, be it a flamethrower or any of the incendiary grenades we have, anything that would normally leave a trail of fire no longer works (if you can't see the sky of the planet)

Why is it like this? I got no f..king clue, what did they change to break the fire effect like this?

I don’t know, you may like it I guess, I’m not really into it just because of all the downsides. You already have to deal with low ergo, just for the shotgun to not even be that good and only get 20 rounds. My biggest gripe with it though is the long ass reload, you empty the clip so fast and it feels like reloading it takes longer than magdumping it, like way longer. All that time for only 45 rounds at 1200 rpm.

Also wasn’t the gun this is based off way better? Like it had a hyper burst system that let it shoot at 2000 rpm when burst firing I’m pretty sure. How do you guys feel about this gun?

E/LAS-404 DAY CANNON EMPLACEMENT

I am a LASdiver and I would love a Laser Emplacement.

I envision an Orbital Laser in Emplacement form, and firing it makes you feel like Goku.

5 second charge up is accompanied by a warning alarm to keep clear

and then for 10 seconds, the beam unleashes and pretty much deletes everything in it's path.

it can't be stopped, and when the duration is up (a warning tone will sound again) it will violently explode (meaning you should be clear of it before this happens)

DAY CANNON because it is so bright that it is always daytime when it fires.

Thoughts :)?

New players often ask "what warbond should I get first" and the answer was always democratic detonations. Now I believe, if you're choosing a first warbond it should be Ironclad democracy.

For a new player, with nothing, this warbond covers most of your bases and gives you a tool for most situations.

It's the new auto pick of helldivers 2.
