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

[Dim Glownigger]

How’s the game compared to Deep Rock Galactic?

When you can get into the servers and find a good group AND not randomly crash it's excellent. The problem is that getting all of that to happen right now is like pulling teeth.

I'd honestly just stick with drg at the moment.

I haven't had any of that happen to me.

Does anyone else find the robots clunky? They often glitch when they hit a wall and they start sliding across the floor when they die.

Wait why are fag flags an issue in a game with friendly fire?

That's honestly the joke. Now we wait to see if the CEO/Lead Creative Designer is smart enough to understand what would happen with the story/memes/gameplay with the audience the game has if they add in the fag flag.

>thinking people care about your dime a dozen satire
Dude, they literally just want to shoot bugs and robots. They couldn't give two shits about whatever "lore" you ripped from Heinlein.

The exact same thing happened with the Starship Troopers movie. Commie director tried to mock Heinlein's society but ended up making it look super cool instead.

If you’re wondering, Pilestedt is the Arrowhead CEO and Helldivers 2’s Creative Director.

Imagine attacking people for not getting your "satire" about Our Managed Democracy when you yourself don't even get what you're satirizing.

They're modern Swede's with a game published by Sony. Pandering is probably inevitable.
The real question is how heavy handed are they going to be with moderation. Hopefully not Blizzard levels of retarded.

Is there any reason NOT to use light armour? The stamina difference is night and day, I can sprint halfway across the map non-stop during the SSD card carry missions.

From what I know (I ain't touching this until the devs remove that rootkit DRM), there is literally no difference between the protection values between light and heavy armor at the moment. They'll probably fix this once they get the server issues ironed out.

It's literally described as a rootkit.

Several people complaining about crashes and bsods related to it.
Game looks interesting but I'm not going to buy or support something that runs on the kernel level. I don't even know why they have such invasive anti cheat/drm since it's PvE.

Apparently there was a lot of cheating in the first game, but why Arrowhead or Sony thought this was a good choice is anyone's guess.

Perhaps they'd also realize how having those flags as part of the Helldiver capedom would undermine the Turbo-America parody they have going on.

 

[Betonhaus]

Because if they don't, IGN or Kotaku or somebody will do an ambush interview on one of their leads and do a long write-up on "The Disturbingly Racist, Transphobic Attitudes Behind Helldivers," then launch an Emmanuel Goldstein campaign on Twitter against the guy.

Oh god no their servers are already overloaded they don't need another spike in new players.

Rainbow capes don't get exfil but are programmed to autosuicide

Rainbow capes gets blasted right before the Shuttle lands and get to spend the rest of their life on the bug hive/robot commies planets. Send down a reinforcement at the last second so they get to watch the shuttle leave as a message.

Here's a question, I was playing the game a few days ago on medium difficulty and we where getting fucked in the ass by the bots. Like a million fucking robots everywhere. I paly it today on challenging and it was fine. Did I encounter a bug or something?

If you were on Malevelon Creek, that is just how that planet is.

 

[elrond hubbard]

I think there was a bug where multiple bot drops would spawn in when there was only supposed to be one.

That 50% chance to not die armor is pretty sweet, let me live through a 500kg bomb that got dropped on my head

 

[Back me up!]

I do think they fucked up the pathing AI for the recuse scientist mission. They all now gathering together on the ramp right before the door and don't more, just collecting more and more people until we run out of time on the mission.
