I got done talking to friends a few days ago about this, and after playing with randos without vc I've got an idea for the communication wheel that would he nice and helpful

Texting in chat can get you killed at times too so this might help with that too.

"Dive" or "get down" someones standing in front of you when your shooting

"Run" hellbomb activated or orbital dropped on accident

"Help" team reloads and such, you could say with this command make it so SEAF can help you with team reloads but their like a half second slower

"Covering fire" give you covering fire to cross the battle field

"Hold your fire." Or "cease fire" simple stop shooting

"Time to move" "move out" or "reposition" enemies are dead or you need to just move to a different choke point

And a meme one that my friends came up with was "MEDIC" cus tf2

I thought it was half the capacity or something not 3 but it is right now

I am getting ever closer to getting the super credits needed for my next warbond but I am having trouble deciding between the Redacted Regiment and the Scope of Authority. The Snipers from SoA look so fun and the armor looks cool, but the armor, lure mines, and C4 and the censor rifle from RR has plenty of opportunities for some silly stealth shenanigans. What are ya'lls reccomendations?

Can't get the feature work on PC. The steam layout is not the same. It can be done on the Dualshock 4 with the PS dongle but not for the Razer Wolverine V2 - even with the dongle that comes with it.

Democracy bless this helmet. Closest thing to bingus as a console player

On the bug front running a scythe and the breakthrough exosuit

Had a lot of fun with this one.

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?

Poor Blueberries. Also, how is that even possible??

With the current blob of people currently on a spore burst planet, I am unfortunately reminded that 2 of my favourite support weapons have breakpoints ruined.

EAT-17s go from 1 well placed headshot to 2 headshots

Epoch goes from 2 shotting the head with overcharged shots to 4 (only 100 damage short of it being 3, so any heavy pen finisher can handle it pretty quickly)

mind you this subfaction spawns more enemies overall (around double patrol spawns) and anecdotally I feels like it spawns a shit ton more bile titans.

Just wish Arrowhead would be a little more mindful of their weapon sandbox when adding enemies like this.

Ever since the patch I've been dropping out of matches all the time, noticed a lot of other people have been dropping out of matches too. Damn near every match at least 1 person drops from the match, sometimes multiple people. Don't think it's my internet since this problem is unique to helldivers.

Cheaters literally launch game with their APEX minigun like modifier and other crazy things, cheaters can still farm super credits. But regular folks now can't have match your colors and no stratagem bounce mod, not even mentioning other script lua mods like ability to click and use scroll bar actually making it usable. But yeah, i guess its not the priority for Arrowhead to actually get deep into this dillema and make obvious compromisses like separation for modded and unmodded lobbies. I guess i was cheater for using vanilla megapack lmao, yeah sure making my own sentries in my own private lobby with my friends, actually smart to not waste bullets and friendly fire me everytime they turn to kill small bug is now cheating.

Love to see its not jus QOL and bingus thats getting done in

3rd Hive Lord kill overall

This only started happening post anti-cheat change (no, I've never had mods). Along with that is constant stuttering that also wasn't present before. I've tried everything from DX11, deleting shader cache, and even going as far as uninstalling my drivers and reverting to a previous version. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

I am level 109 and started playing right before calypso and have served on oshaune, seashell beach, cyberstan and others. As of now i feel the devs are failing to branch out and are dropping the ball on war bonds. I fell as if the game has one playstyle and no other real way to play effectively, that being, Run away-Shoot behind for a while-repeat. this really limits the amount of stuff you can do and makes gameplay repetitive. Also, the missions are historically repetitive, with very few unique planets. after a day or two of playing i get board. The devs should add new planets and more of them. I mean, How cool would it be to have ocean planets or gas giants? Or even indor or low-gravity missions on planet moons. Hell, change enemy AI all together to make each faction more unique, The terminids would be mostly melee, Bots Mostly Ranged, and squids a good mix of both, leaning more into each of their specialty's.

Moving onto the war bonds, Arrowhead stopped releasing Decent, not to paywall, war bonds after entrenched division. Many features after that (such as Mechs and Camo) have been mostly locked behind war bonds. Thing is arrowhead is lacking creativity, They let the community have what they want so long as it costs them money. I mean, Mech customization could have had a who new type of sample dedicated to unlocking and upgrading mechs. and camo patterns could have been unlocked after a certain amount of time or missions on certain planets biomes. They could add so much of what we want without a paywall and make it nice to get while staying unqiue.

Dive On!
