I just wanted to check if there was any news on the Super Earth Defense cape yet.

Automaton status- coping, seething, dilating, unable to take Zosma despite it being literally behind Cyberstan.

would actually suggest a Q-cannon or E.A.T. instead of the recoilless, they perform the same tasks, and you can carry a backpack (jump pack) with it. Recoiless really only benefits duos who have a lot of synergy to pull off the team reload. If you are reloading solo, you miss a lot of repositioning time to reload, the Q-cannon does it passively meaning you can pull hit and runs.
I decided to do a few runs trying these. They're definitely more mobile, but I found that the snap-shot capability is more to my preference than the Quasar's charge time, and I like the sustainability over the Expendables despite the long reload time. What I really need to do is get better with the Big Iron so that I don't need to danger-close panzerfaust Hulks with the 3 Slot AT.
Though honestly, the scenario for the EAT was heavily against it. That one siege defense valuable asset extraction scenario is definitely not one where you can fuck around with on-demand AT strats, as I suddenly found out when my shit was on cooldown and there were two factory striders coming up to fuck everybody in the face. I'll definitely have to try them out more, though.
That backpack slot is definitely worth opening up, though. The personal shield is a game changer when it comes to not getting clipped by automaton strays.
 
The addition of a shock grenade launcher is a bit of a sad thing. It means that there will be no or very restricted ammo types for support weapons, or maybe even no attachments for them. Hope it kills stuff better with it's seemingly lower ammo capacity (judging by the cylinder in the video it might have 6 round capacity).

AH needs to add more booms. There are never enough.

That backpack slot is definitely worth opening up, though. The personal shield is a game changer when it comes to not getting clipped by automaton strays.
Using medic armor's stims and a support backpack to not run out of stims is a more reliable choice against bullet strays.
Against cannon shots and rockets however, the shield is definitely a savior.

I never bought the game in the first place because it had it. For a PVE game I don't see why it needs that level of access.
Best way to run the game is Proton in Linux. It creates a Wine instance and the kernel level anti-cheat is kept within that instance. I found the game performs better in Proton anyway so it was a win-win.
 
Good lord I've been getting in some games with low IQ knuckle draggers at diff 10. Explain to me how someone dies 6 times in less than 5 minutes at the very start of the game? He literally died in the first ten seconds because he walked into a charger and...let it do it's crush attack on him.

Yes I know predator strain can be a bitch, but this guy would just drop his hellpod right in the middle of a bug nest mid bug breach, run around for 2 seconds and immediately die. I would make sure to throw the reinforcement away from the enemy just for him to steer straight into the horde. Dies six times in total and then leaves. Level 120+ playing worse than many level 50s I see.

Then another guy throws orbital napalm 20m away from the flag objective, kills 3/4 of the team, then dies three more times immediately and leaves. This is right after he picked up some guys gear and just ignored him when asked to give it back (he brought nothing but offensive strats) It's really starting to thin my patience, and I think I may be too merciful when it comes to kicking people, but I usually give people the benefit of the doubt...

Lags and poor PCs/laptops getting insane lags. I have mine which can't surpass 33 FPS, and it frequently went below for a time 10 FPS after having got clogged with dust. The game really fucks up at 10 FPS - your character starts moving slower, and your weapons start firing slower, and even your grenades fly slower.
You might be playing in a region full of retards like europe or asia. You might have playstation players joining you.
God has blessed me with very few retards and team killers. I barely meet them.
 
 
Once I stop being a lazy shitbag, I'll post the updated SC arrow mod.

In other news, China seems to be quite smitten with Helldivers. Apparently Tencent invested 500 million in Arrowhead recently.
That means we can watch in real time as Tencent forces even more woke bullshit into Arrowhead, waits for the value to tank due to the games not being fun anymore, then buys it when it's worth nothing.

Helldivers is like the most "woke" correcting game I have ever seen since any time any faggoty comes up the rest of the squad takes care of it......for democracy. I don't think the Chinese players will stand for it either.

Recently got the Freedom Flames Warbond and I do have to say I'm liking the Cookout on bugdives, especially on the Predator Strain planets. A shot to the face stuns and sets on fire any of the jumper(big or small) getting close while the tag team of Laser Bulldog + Machine Gun Turret clean up the rest.
 
I really don't understand the weird obssession fags have for this game.
I've seen tankie retards unironically simping for Cyberstan because 100 years ago their creators were oppressed workers and they're socialists.

You know, the genocidal death-machine faction that are all programed to think identically and survive off of blending human beings into flesh soup.
 
The correct response to this undemocratic content is as follows:

there are fags in every game community because trannies are autistic men.

Correct. This is why you gatekeep. Call them faggot and run them off. It's the only way.

Play bots on 8+. That filters the tards out pretty well.
 
I feel like revealing the illuminate planets this soon might've been a mistake.

I was personally already kind of burned out on them and doubt I was the only one, so revealing them an also making the next MO about them is fast. The bot MO was really a welcome change of pace.
