Helldivers 2 - Hell is more diverse than ever as PlayStation's demographics continue to grow and change.

this game is more sick than i had first thought. if you're hosting and someone's a fucking idiot you can just kick them. it's been a long time since i could just do that. i also just quickplayed into a game that was a shitshow with like five minutes and one reinforcement left, shot some bitch ass nigga with a furry profile right in his head while he was at a side objective, then quit. it's great. i love it.

edit to articulate that he was a bitch ass nigga

I caved and bought the game but all my friends that I've been playing with are spamming these quick hold an area or kill x number of enemies missions because they're claiming they're the fastest way to grind xp. I don't mind being powerleveled but I feel like I'm not really learning the game, my contributions amount to "drop turrets and hide", and even then I can't kill shit besides trash mobs. Is this a valid level up strat or have I been bamboozled?

It is the optimal way to farm medals, XP and money, yes.
It is also effectively not playing the game at all, and you should probably tell your friends to stop minmaxing the gameplay out of the game they want to play.

There is literally no reason to bum rush this game. Like the lower level mission starting out are more fun with a machine gun/stalwart and dicking around/practicing calling in shit before learning to deal with heavy armored mobs. Playing around in lower level missions will also teach you how to spot side objectives/loot on the map.

Yeah I'd noticed those particular missions seem to have very little mats. I'd like to upgrade the ship but I've played for 6 hours and can't afford even one. I'll probably just hop into other easy or mid lobbies if they're gonna keep being faggots and come back later.
On the plus side, I'm swimming in medals (relatively) and got the explosive auto rifle from the premium war bond page which is better than anything from the other one so far.

What you can do is learn how to spot Radio Station (if they spawned on the map) which will mark the locations of all the Point of Interest (PoI), making farming fairly quick and straight forward. From there grabbing samples will be pretty straight forward.

Enjoying the game overall, about 50 hours in. Level 29. I still enjoy hopping on for a mission with the bois here and there, but I have nothing left to grind for already. Did a helldive difficulty last night with the squad, since the only thing we need now are Super Samples, and the extract ship was bugged. We all died literally standing inside the extract ship. I think I’ll wait for another update with more content, but I really like the concept so far.
 
The mechs are gonna start officially rolling out "soon."

From what I've heard, the HD2 Discord ended up banning trannies due to them repeatedly breaking the "no politics allowed" rule (yes, I see the irony of that rule in a satirical game). Could have been them dragging political discourse where it didn't belong, could be them begging for legbutt cosmetics, but either way, I'm optimistic that Arrowhead won't bend the knee that easily (and they're probably aware those cosmetics are basically giant "kick me" signs in this day and age).

Maxxed out the levels last night... I truly am autistic... all that time slipped through my fingers like grains of sand...

Has anyone else gotten the Scorcher yet? What do you think of it?

Also for any KiwiDivers curious of when we're gonna get content, iirc the "plan" is the second Thursday of every month. New stratagems and a warbond. Warbond's are most likely going to be Steel Veteran sized. So like three pages of goodies.

Yup they're more or less banned. Or at least the topic is. It's was because nobody was having critical political discussions or arguments. Then the troons just came along and start screaming of how they should add a tranny flag etc. then as soon as anyone says "I'd really rather not have that in the game" they instantly were getting called Nazis. The troons were starting the fight every single time. At that point it's just a matter of cutting losses.

A new patch was just released on PC, and soon to be released on PS5.

And here's the specific changes about the balancing from their Discord since for some fucking reason they didn't just put the notes in the actual update post.

I'm a little disappointed that they didn't buff more guns that kind of need it, but the Breaker should be way less dominant now.

Helldivers 2 discord server just turned to an average Call of Duty fandom with this single patch. Both sides are literally malding.

I don't know how people can be malding over this update, other than the absolute retards who rely entirely on the Breaker carrying them through the mission, which is like everyone over the level of like 30. From my experience I've had more success with using the starting Assault Rifle than the Breaker, specifically on Automaton missions since pretty much every enemy can be taken out with a good headshot or a few impact nades.
