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

OH NO NO NO he doesn't know the fireworks nade sparks are anti tank so you can do shit like kill a factory strider with 2 of them if you just aim at the feet, or kill hulks/chargers if you time it right. Also kills factories/bug holes with the explosion. I consider it a top tier bot nade.

The nades are inconsistent, sometimes they just do nothing. I also think their damage is bugged where they're doing 4x more damage when you're in a squad. So when they fix that I think they'll be hit with a "nerf".

Peak physique right now is mandatory if you want to do something meaningful with melee. They should double the damage of all melee weapons and lower melee boost on peak physique to 50%.

Kinda underselling the AT Emplacement. It's easily the best stratagem against the bots in general, regardless of mission type. It's also one of the better options for dealing with Leviathans. It has far more use than pretty much every other green stratagem.

You’re not wrong, but I tend to value high mobility over static firepower because I usually play on 10. Using either of the manned turrets typically gets me killed pretty quickly by berserkers except on the defense missions, which is where they really shine. Maybe I just suck at using them, but it seems like a strategem that’s better when you have someone who will cover you, which s hard to get when playing with randos.

Also why take a turret when you can take a portable hellbomb? The nuke is more fun if you ask me.

The buff to bot troop carriers and squid ufos didn’t help it either.

Thermite does this too you know. And it sticks so when the strider moves it still dies

I was expecting more with them making a bunch of Xeets and announcements about the stream, but an Xbox launch is welcome. It'll launch on August 26th.

It took them long enough. More players is a good thing.
The Sonyggers are apparently seething and are trying to do damage control by claiming that Sony is not a third-party publisher like Microsoft even though several Sony games are already on PC and Xbox.

Trash

Truth Enforcers

I got to countermand this slander against Truth.
1. The Loyalist is fine compared to the other non-utility secondaries. It has stagger and damage for bigger targets and AOE for crowds. If for whatever reason you want to take something other than grenade pistol or ultimatum, it's a decent choice.
2. I wouldn't say that the Reprimand makes the Adjudicator obsolete, but it's certainly not a downgrade. It does more damage and is a bit easier to control. Better up close than Adjudicator but not useless at range.
3. The Halt is awesome. It's the only stunning primary that doesn't feel like a water gun. Medium pen fletchettes mean you don't have to think about where you shoot generally. You will stagger or kill whatever you hit.

Now that the armors have a higher rating, you can use them without just gimping yourself. There is no way Truth is worse than Viper Commandos or on the same tier as Ceremony.

Should also make some medium and heavy pen melee weapons. I want a power sword, chain sword, thunder Hammer, lightsaber, and so on

Truth Enforcers is great for the fashion, and so that I can fold my arms behind my back and look on the bugdivers enemies of Super Earth with the proper amount of disdain.

Also, so happy about the game coming to Xbox, I want to play with my brother.

Been looking through the youtube comments on the X-Box announcement and it been almost nothing but wholesome happiness from the PS and PC players their X-box & Halo brethren can join them on delivering managed democracy to their enemies.

We got Killzone crossover equipment, maybe we'll get Halo?

Helldivers 2 really does not need PVP and PVPers, who will fuck everything up just to fuck over everyone else.

Helldivers PVP is when the extract shuttle is bugged and you need to lose all your reinforcements somehow to get back on the ship. The one time we did that it was good fun and really mitigated the fact we'd not be bringing back our samples.

Man I hate orange Reddit, they’re such fags over there. Green Reddit is way better if only because you don’t get banned for saying faggot.

Anyways, managed democracy is clearly preferable to being eaten by giant insects, being turned into a zombie or being thrown in a blender by robots with glowing red eyes. No brainer choice, really.

Better be from Bungie Halo and not the later 343i Halo. Cause this haves monkey paw written all over it.

Managed democracy sounds a lot like what European countries do when a slightly less left wing party is winning. The phenomenon of this game where people feel the need to basically purity test if you're enjoying it ironically or not is something

Xbox launch

Anybody want to make predictions on what Xbox players will be like? I'm really curious to see the actual tangible differences you can see between them, us and PS5 players.

Doubt there will be much difference between Xbox niggers and the literal children on PlayStation. I'm not going to turn cross play on to find out

Bug divers are infuriating! We raise the flag and need to just kill 2 bile titans to clear the objective. Two of us die to friendly fire and the others run away! The flag lowers all the way before they revive us and we have to walk a third of the map back to the same objective. I want to punch a hole in my wall.

First Xbox players must over come the hurdle of buying the game for 60 dollars, since they dont get it on gamepass

Ching chongs?

The chinese players are literally insane in this game. They will teamkill players on the objective. Then go have a big fight 200m from the objective and then fuck off to some far flung corner of the map without ever clearing the objective.

It's like they are playing some other game that only they can see. I find it fascinating. I can't even be angry.

If you are serious angry skillgamer why are you playing PvE with randoms? Go play lol or whatever the kids like nowadays.

90% of my games with randoms have people with normal decision making.
