Well, the APC has long been revealed, but I assume it will be added in the next battle for Cyberstan. That and a new exosuit.

For exosuits I'd rather we be able to customize their arms and attachments than just have new variations.
 
is the game functional yet, it was crashing like crazy after the recent updates a couple days so i uninstalled it
 
For now, I like that they've kept the more generic Personal Orders like 3 successful extractions, or 6 secondaries. Having the unique ones like 100 flamethrower kills is fun sometimes, but also annoying to do when it's killing 5 bile titans and none spawn.

Swedes being Swedes. This happened back in March though. We went over it then.

FWIW I’m not giving AH another penny and left a negative steam review over the matter, but the game is good and they already have my money so I’m gonna keep playing because I like it.

For Bile Titans or one's like it, I just go to low level missions where they're the objective, drop in solo, kill them asap, and just abandon the mission, find another one, rinse and repeat.

Or you can play on D10. There’s enough of them to go around. Shoot them on the forehead with anti tank, one shot kill.
 
Given how fucking pozzed the fans are I haven't played this game for a while. Its disappointing how good games always attract faggots like flies to shit. Every subreddit for the game is a god-forsaken wasteland filled with thin-skinned retards and people that suckoff Arrowhead like its the greatest thing since sliced bread.
 
I gotta say I REALLY wish the defunct game engine Arrowhead used for Helldives 2 would came back into vouge It really is so much better then the Unreal slop we've been cursed with.

They didn't have to do it add it, and maybe its a happy outcome of a flexible lighting engine, but even planets can cause eclipses the sun.

Easiest solution is to just play the game and avoid the fan stuff. Reddit is retarded (see the “reddit General” thread if you need proof). Also avoid the discord. I don’t even think half the people in these fan communities even play the game. The game is still incredibly fun and I’ve had very few bad experiences dropping in with randos (level 10, all players above 115 is perfect).

I do wish AH would stop with the virtue signalling though… It feels like they’re just itching to put rainbows in for pride month but know the team killing would be so bad they’d have to just take it all out.

As has been discussed many times, they misunderstood Starship Troopers and created an awesome game. Now they’re trying to prove to the world that they do think fascism is bad and that they’re player base is evil for enjoying their satire.
 
I don't see the point in trying to continually insist on satire, the first cutscene you see on booting up the game instructs you that your attention is mandatory, if you don't get the idea after that then you're not gonna get it ever, just calm down and accept that being under a totalitarian system is better than being bug food, a robot slave, or a disgusting mollusk.

As far as the game goes, I've picked it up pretty recently and I got the ballistic shield and am trying it out. Though I'm finding that the best defense is mobility and when I try to dick fence with a hulk and the revolver I find myself thinking I should just put three or four into its visor then hide instead of using the shield to keep looking at it. I end up missing my recoilless rifle, which both instantly vaporizes hulks as well as killing literally anything else with relatively easy hits if I have to aim at all.
Am I missing something with the shield or is it a meme build thing?

Even in non totalitarian systems, " your attention is mandatory" is done for enlisted and draftees for instructions. And especially during WWII, where any "seditious" behavior by the recruits wasn't tolerated by anyone in the chain of command.

I don't understand how an engine can be defunct to begin with.
I understand the original developers abandoned it but what's stopping them from upgrading it themselves? Literally a skill issue?

The directional shield is better than the ballistic shield if you're going for that but I find on higher difficulties your priorities are quickly finishing objectives, quickly killing enemies when you have to and then getting to extraction, ballistic shield might help you survive a prolonged fight but you really wanna be inflicting maximum damage and not giving enemies a chance to do damagem. Ballistic and directional shield can be made to work on any difficulty, its great paired with the crossbow vs bots, but like you I always go for light armour and max damage potential on higher difficulties.

Well Arrowhead DID upgrade it but its annoying to upgrade something Arrowhead maybe didn't have all the docs, intuitional knowledge, etc of instead of asking/paying for support/getting routine updates. Plus it takes more developers to focus on the engine instead of getting support through either a subscription or support plan (aka the enterprise subscription model).

Honestly I'm half hoping Arrowheads expands, buy out the old Engine developers/rights and start offering it as themselves as a alternative Unreal.

I want to like the directional shield but there's just no reason to pick it over the omnidirectional shield. It cannot deploy while running. It's handheld but takes the backpack slot. And you can drop it when ragdolled, bafflingly.
