What primary should I bring?

The best primary in the game is 100 percent the double edged sickle from servants of freedom. Now that shit will normally set you on fire, but if you have flame armor on with a heart health drop pod, you will have a weapon with unlimited ammo that can penetrate armor with sustained bursts and kill anything that isn't a heavy. (Hell if your really persistent it can still do that) A weapon that will only mildly irritate you when the overheat sets you on fire. Best armor I always wear is the set they have on the super store.

Now it's a bit less effective against the bugs. For them I took the portable flamethrower from the flame warbond and lighter armor for running as they are fast as hell. You want good area of denial weaponry when a horde is coming after you and the shield protects against getting hit when your bit from behind. Practice danger close strats to get them off your ass in a retreat at your feet.

"Converted" As though AI training destroys the original image. Anyways, when you really think about it, Helldivers itself is an IP made up of inspirations from all sorts of different works. Halo, ODSTs, the Covenant. Warhammer, hulks and dreadnoughts, Starship troopers... Honestly, Helldivers is just a massive infringement on these other intellectual properties, scraping the ideas presented within and appropriating them without the original owners' permission. Shame on them, shamelessly stealing this artistry. Anyways, looking forwards to Helldivers 3 in 10 years using AI texture, model and code generation as part of Arrowhead's workflow because it will just be industry standard at that point.

One minute Arrowhead throws the community a bone, the next minute they're passive-aggressively smugposting about shit like this or about how half their fans are closet fascists and should feel bad. The fuck is going on at their studios?

Also I like how they're angrier at some dumb programs that MIGHT take their job than they are at Sony which has pulled the rug out from under them before.

Speaking of...
Watching the Illuminate slowly just kicking the shit out of us over the last week has been a real pleasure.

Also, I don't know if its just that I'm just playing with a bunch of noobs, or what, but I've been regularly carrying teams for the last couple of days, which is a real problem, because I am an absolute retard.

anything with medium armor pen. if you are just starting the penetrator is good enough until you can get something better. also for the illuminate the mmg will kill everything they have.

Lot of people coming back who haven't played in awhile and/or didn't get very far the first time around and people getting their friends to buy the game I've noticed

Has anyone ever gotten banned for using client side mods in this game? I am seeing conflicting reports. It seems like a huge at risk thing.

Can confirm this works though.

I have extensively modded Helldivers 2, it's completely safe. The Anti-cheat is literally worthless but mods are allowed.
All it does is change the SC model to include a big ass arrow.
I don't think I've ever heard of anyone being banned from HD.

The only problem I ever had was after they released the previous warbond I suddenly couldn't play with any mods, didn't get banned but it just wouldn't start. Then it started working again after a while.

I keep trying to convince my buddies to buy the game, but no luck so far. Because at least then I'd know I wasn't playing with the moderately feeble young adults from Julheim.

I just finished a match, full team. I dropped in about a minute or two into the match, and the squad was already down about 7 lives in less than 5 minutes because they got into a massive shooting match at their drop point. Went off on my own to do the black box, because the squad literally ignored the fucking thing, to go to the SEAF Artillery half a map away for some reason, known only to God. They then proceeded to burn through 10 lives holding the SEAF Artillery without even managing to activate the fucking thing. I'm trying not to be super shitty cause I know they're probably just coming back, and I'm not particularly good, but holy cow.

I don't even know how you accidentally fuck up this bad. If you aren't going to do anything other than get into a massive all out firefight, all you need to do is call stratagems the second they're available and don't stop shooting until everything is dead or you are.

Try updating your mods and making sure you're using the mod manager to test what works or doesn't

I feel like every other game is like this now, I'm constantly doing the objectives whilst watching reinforcements tick down as my team end up in neverending fights they have no reason to be in. Noticed a lot more accidental team killing, poorly placed strategems and general stupidity too.
 
I hate fighting squids.

I hate their shields.
I hate the flying niggers who're too tanky and glitchy.
I hate the bullet sponge la creatura de los americanos.
I hate the fucking ships that do strafing runs.
I hate the mortar faggots who blow buildings I'm on and get me stuck in geometry.
I hate that they appear out of thin fucking air next to me while I'm out of stims.
I hate their faggoty tesla towers that zap me out of nowhere.

I FUCKING HATE SQUIDS!

I mostly agree but I love the ship that strafes, it's so kino.
I want bots to have something similar.
 
I have literally never seen the DSS do anything in-mission. Maybe once it gave me a booster before moving to another planet mid match and taking it away. There has not been a single instance when I play the game and the DSS is doing something interesting that would affect the game meaningfully. The cooldown period and random downtime for weeks on end makes it useless unless you're playing every day.

Fan film is not squid related but does have the DSS getting into the thick of an orbital fight with the bots.
