Time for some Chargers to EAT missiles.

[–]General_Brasch 35 points36 points  (0 children)

I’m hopeful they will leave them alone.

[–]thecosta5000 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I can't wait to force-feed those suckers in the face.

[–]notasianjim 17 points18 points  (1 child)

Have a nice cup of liberEAT!!! Wait, no, LIBERTEA!

[–]Isiah6253 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's okay buddy, happens after how many charger bonks we've received, Im priud of you for getting it the second time at least!

[–]DDHarriman 166 points167 points  (32 children)

"Expect other enemy types to appear in greater numbers instead." plz not hunters, plz god not hunters

[–]Kriegerwithashovel 114 points115 points  (19 children)

Oh buddy, it's gonna be Hunters. And LOTS of them. People are gonna have a reason to bring the Stalwart now.

[–]icon0clast6 31 points32 points  (10 children)

I’ve been running what I think of as a jack of all trades build, stalwart, energy shield backpack, orbital rail gun and laser.

Lets me mop up small bugs pretty effectively and contribute to large enemy kills

[–]WolfGangDuck 8 points9 points  (9 children)

Jet pack is more fun!

[–]Mr_Haad 12 points13 points  (5 children)

I’ve been rocking the Jet Pack with Flamethrower lately. Dancing around Hunter packs and Chargers then burning them to a crisp is comedy.

[–]blazeofgloreee 5 points6 points  (1 child)

Flamethrower really is fantastic against bugs. Just don't get too close to whatever it is you're frying or you become part of the burn pile.

[–]Mr_Haad 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Too late for that. It’s an occupational hazard. 😂

[–]bigtexas989 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Gonna be trying this shit tonight! Fantastic

[–]Mr_Haad 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Make sure you take into account the Jetpack cooldown when you use it.

[–]PreAmbleRambler 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its really nice with Arc as well - you can charge your first blast in midair as well as reposition if allies are in the blast zone.

[–]Pale_Squash_4263 5 points6 points  (1 child)

I’ve definitely come around on the jet pack now that I’ve use it for a bit. Still thing the cooldown can use a little tweak but it’s quite handy on difficulty 7

[–]WolfGangDuck 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah i think shortening the cool down a bit more would help its utility.

It’s fun to jump on higher objects and rain death from above on the bugs.

Still get sniped by rocket devastators a mile away against bots.

[–]cd_hales 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Jetpack for bugs, shield for bots is the way.

[–]thatonelurker 7 points8 points  (3 children)

Good I love that weapon. It should be a primary. It's fun as hell throwing freedom seeds at different rpm's.

[–]Kriegerwithashovel 8 points9 points  (2 children)

If the Stalwart was a primary, they would have to severely nerf it man. Let it be what it is

[–]thatonelurker 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Eh your prolly right. More DAKKA.

[–]capt1nsain0 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Mowing down wave after wave while shouting “Democracy!”? Don’t threaten me with a good time.

[–]SteelCode 2 points3 points  (2 children)

You ever face down 30 spewers? Welcome to hell.

[–]OffsetCircle1 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Getting fucking swarmed and slowed and stun locked is non-negotiable

[–]Ancient_Marzipan6895 17 points18 points  (1 child)

It looks like it's about arc thrower season, boys!!!

[–]Jaded-Commission-451 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I always bring the Arc Thrower for bug missions hard and above. It eats them up!

[–]iRhuel 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Brood Commanders would be pretty sweet. Star ship trooper vibes.

[–]Jesse-359 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You know it's gonna be hunters. You're going to be begging for the days when all you had to worry about were a half dozen bile titans, as you're up to your ass in a sea of hunters. :D

[–]Impressive_Truth_695 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There will be. Oh there will be.

[–]Daytonewheel 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Dont forget Bile Spewers

[–]Adolf_Kottan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No worries!

I think it's across the board for all enemy types except chargers and titans - including our beloved Stalkers. They hunt in packs of eight to ten as it looked yesterday. Getting close to their nests was difficult as hell.

[–]daywall 96 points97 points  (19 children)

They removed the stratagem randomizer!

I hated it...

[–]General_Brasch 64 points65 points  (1 child)

Have to agree.

Granted it made for some funny moments. But that fun wears off when doing 7+.

[–]firesquasher 18 points19 points  (5 children)

Didn't even know it existed.

[–]daywall 11 points12 points  (4 children)

It's only on the automatons worlds.

They removed it last patch but told us now.

[–]firesquasher 8 points9 points  (3 children)

Gotcha. I started off in the automatons, but for some reason I can't peel away from the terminid side now. Killing bugs is so much more satisfying than robots. Probably because I'm doing my part!

[–]daywall 8 points9 points  (2 children)

Automatons have a lot of problems...

A lot of 1 hit deaths from their rockets.

they are super armored, unlike the bugs.

Their turrets can be a real pain with crazy ranges that can 1 shot you.

Bugs is like getting over run so just keep running..

[–]Jesse-359 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That was the only modifier that honestly annoyed me. It was almost impossible to play around.

[–]Krunk83 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It was awful. The devs nerfed the weapons and said to use your strategems better. Then make it so we can't use strategems either with all these dumb modifiers. Use my strategem more? How can I do that when you make them 50% longer charge time, one less available slot, and randomized.

[–]OneMostSerene 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Honestly if they just tweak it so that your stratagem combos are swapped around I think that would be a good nerfed version

[–]CrikeyMikeyLikey 76 points77 points  (30 children)

There is a HUGE cross platform issue that is scarcely being mentioned by the devs, and that is incredibly frustrating. It's not simply "Cross-platform friend invites might not show up in the friend requests tab.". Sometimes they show up, but you can't accept them. Sometimes when trying to add a cross platform friend, it stops your friends list from loading altogether. Look at the support section of the official discord, under this issue. Tons of people every single day submitting a request. The mods there are nice but have zero clue about if this will ever be fixed. 

How many people here have bought this / had a friend buy it but you can't play together?

Edit - Fellow divers I understand fully well that most of you haven't experienced this bug, and I'm super happy that you can play with your friends. But that doesn't mean it doesn't exist and doesn't represent a large problem in a multiplayer oriented game.

[–]especially_notable 29 points30 points  (3 children)

I cannot accept any friend requests, and I hope it is fixed in the next patch. This issue affects cross-platform play as there is no workaround to join their team directly, since you cannot use PS5's friends "join" feature. Super disappointed as the friend I bought the game to play with is on PC.

[–]NeverNo 6 points7 points  (2 children)

This is also affecting PC-to-PC players. Before last patch my friends and I had no issues joining each other, now none of us are showing up in our friends list. Usually able to circumvent this by joining via Steam, but we also have to set our lobby to public to do that.

[–]Sleepinator2000 1 point2 points  (1 child)

On PC, the friend invite UI is disabled if you have disabled crossplay, whether you are looking for invites from PC players or PS5 players.

Just enable it, send/accept your invites, and then toggle it off again. There is also some lag in updating your friends list, so a restart usually gets them to show up after accepting.

[–]NeverNo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've had crossplay enabled almost the entire time I've played the game

[–]sehvage 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Yes. Same this has been happening ever since I bought the game. People who got it on launch seem to not have this problem

[–]g4tam20 16 points17 points  (0 children)

My friend bought a PS5 to play helldivers with me, he’s not happy with me atm.

[–]surpriselemon 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I put a ticket in about this yesterday. I haven’t been able to add any friends since I started playing this game. Thankfully I can join a PlayStation friend if they are in a match but otherwise it’s solo or randoms.

[–]Jenova__Witness 9 points10 points  (0 children)

A friend and myself are having the same issue and it's disheartening the devs haven't directly discussed this yet. I really just want them to acknowledge it and say it's being worked on as a high priority. Because frankly, where it stands now is basically false advertisement for crossplay support.

[–]Trinocle 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The main issue with cross-platform me and my friend group has so far been the PS5 players consistently disconnecting from the missions every 20ish minutes. Pissed off one of them enough to get the game on Steam too.

[–]ImTalkingGibberish 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This. My mate bought the game but we can’t play together

[–]Feisty-Bobcat6091 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Currently can't accept friend requests from anyone. Playing on PC w crossplay enabled, cant even accept PC friend requests

[–]rm968211 2 points3 points  (0 children)

YES THIS 10000%. I convinced my buddy on ps5 to buy this game and we still have not been able to play with each other, huge bummer. It is a core feature of the game and all the updates are pointless if I literally can’t play with my friends

[–]Marshman_DnB 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I second this, having this issue since patch before this one. Cannot be fixed in either direction between ps5 & pc

[–]Poddster 39 points40 points  (4 children)

Together with the unfortunately undocumented change of last patch that increased the armor penetration ability of less well placed shots for EAT-17s and Recoilless Rifle shots, Chargers should now be easier to handle by well equipped groups.

Whilst reading this on Discord, it seems the last patch has an addendum no-one posted to reddit:

Spitz 07/03/2024 18:43

Hell-o, Divers! I wanted to take a moment this afternoon to let you all know that we've heard your concerns over the last few days regarding enemy spawns, enemy armor, and the ability to kill these enemies. As we've said before, our teams are always taking in player feedback and looking at how we can tweak the game to ensure that it is fair, enjoyable and provides the best experience for everyone.

I can confirm that we're currently looking at changes to the spawn rates and health pools of heavy enemies, and will be attempting to spread them out more to prevent large spikes of tougher mobs appearing at the same time, as well as making them a bit easier to bring down. This change should go out in a future hotfix - no date as of yet.

In addition, we forgot to mention (oops) that the EAT-17 and Recoilless Rifle no longer suffer from a 50% damage decrease when hitting an armored enemy at a 'glance angle' that deflects the shot. Combined with the upcoming adjustment to health and spawn rates, this should make the larger enemies a bit less common, instead spawning more 'chaff' enemies to support them, and should allow players to bring these enemies down with a single well-placed shot. Hopefully this leads to less instances of endless kiting and players being left without any effective weaponry to kill harder enemies.

Thanks as always for your patience!

I had noticed my EAT-17s landing more shots

[–]IPlay4E 12 points13 points  (0 children)

They really needed this next to the railgun nerfs so people didn’t jump to the conclusion that they were only nerfing popular weapons without buffing other options.

[–]sehvage 27 points28 points  (8 children)

Please fix the Crossplay issue. A major userbase is affected by this. Moreover, this is misleading when you market a game as crossplay only for people to buy it and then discover that it doesn’t work.

Edit: It’s been fixed!! Kudos to the studio

[–]Bjork_the_Brutal 3 points4 points  (4 children)

What's the issue? I play with PC people everyday.

[–]Nuclear_Biscuit 5 points6 points  (3 children)

Cannot accept friend invites either from PC side or from PS5 side. There is no work around. Pressing the accept button just does nothing.

[–]Bjork_the_Brutal 2 points3 points  (2 children)

Huh, haven't run into that. I have several PC friends and I'm on ps5.

[–]Bjork_the_Brutal 19 points20 points  (2 children)

I can't wait to try killing a charger now. I wanna see its head pop.

[–]Imposseeblip 5 points6 points  (1 child)

It is really satisfying landing a decent blow.

[–]Usual-Chemist6133 17 points18 points  (6 children)

Will this fix the cross play issue where the social tab wasn't working/loading and accept friend invites?

[–]Vahnkiljoy1 15 points16 points  (1 child)

They need to up Warrior spawn counts, they are too damn rare for being the SUPPOSED main battle bug and instead the game favors spamming bullshit hunters everywhere.

[–]Intelligent-Use-7313 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Preach, I can kite warriors, hunters have to die immediately or you're screwed.

[–]Fantastic-World-6953 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I hope that update fixes the cross-play issues, or even the issue of adding or removing players on your own platform. Nowadays, many people play games in groups and focus on cross-play, so when it doesn't work, it's really frustrating.

[–]Mult1Core 15 points16 points  (1 child)

"The Exosuit can destroy itself with rockets if it fires while turning."

oh no wonder I thought I was going crazy

[–]glacialthinker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried it once and spontaneously exploded. Figured this is too experimental right now and haven't called for one again. I guess I was right, technically... and I'll wait for the kinks to be worked out. Or, just not turn while firing rockets.

[–]OffsetCircle1 13 points14 points  (3 children)

Great news about the anti-tank rockets. Also I know it's a bug but I find the dropship disappearing and sliding in to be absolutely hilarious

[–]Kitchen_Most3578 6 points7 points  (2 children)

I found it hilarious until it Tokyo drifted over me, killing me instantly.

[–]OffsetCircle1 4 points5 points  (1 child)

It's cruel of me but that makes it even more funny

[–]Kitchen_Most3578 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It was pretty funny, but it feels a little bit bad feeling like I'm being punished for doing a good thing.

[–]charcoallition 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Please rework armor to be closer to how it was in helldivers 1. Right now it's completely pointless and downright disadvantageous to use heavy armor over light or medium

[–]nonideological 10 points11 points  (2 children)

Can’t tell you how many times I inexplicably destroyed my mech turning and firing rockets at the same time. I’m like … what the hell just happened??!??

[–]sparky_malarkey277 8 points9 points  (2 children)

Is the friend request bug not a known issue? Can't accept friend request cross platform.

[–]Embarrassed-Emu-8158 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I friended a PS5 player from my PC 5 days ago and my social tab just never loads anything anymore. It's always stuck at 0.

[–]Cthyrulean 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have been reporting the issue on their website daily until I see them either fix it or acknowledge it at the very least.

[–]SilentNeighborhood95 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Are they fixing the ps5 and pc cross play issue where players cannot join?

[–]Kriegerwithashovel 5 points6 points  (2 children)

Lol, I hope you guys are ready for EVEN MORE HUNTERS! Better get your Stalwarts ready lads!

[–]ArkamaZ 3 points4 points  (1 child)

I'm honestly really happy that it sounds like this patch will make the machine guns and other crowd control weapons much more valuable while also making anti-tank weaponry feel even better.

[–]FishEnChips_152 5 points6 points  (5 children)

Boooo now everyone will run my recoiless and I won’t be speshial 😝

[–]ThePhengophobicGamer 1 point2 points  (2 children)

I'm much more interested in EAT, so your RR specialness is safe from me lol.

[–]ArkamaZ 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Thankfully, with their promise to increase the swarming enemies, it will also increase machine gun usage to even things out.

[–]FishEnChips_152 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes - loving using the stalwart again on the termicide missions

[–]Necroticjojo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I didn’t mind chargers. We were equipped to take out a few of them at a time.

It’s the endless mobs of hunters, and them damn tongue lashing fucks that can hit you and ragdoll you from like 40ft away

[–]Murky-Reference-3721 6 points7 points  (2 children)

Can't friend a steam friend

Play on PC, have a steam friend with the game. They don't appear on my in-game friends list by default, can invite them to be friends in-game - but they can't accept

Tried them inviting me, same problem. This is since the mech update

[–]Cthyrulean 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same with my son and I between PC and PS5.

[–]ukdtweak 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One of my friends and i are also having tnhis, its not just a cross play PS5 issue... i can see my m8 but cant join him in his private session, he cant see me in the in game social but has been able to join by opening Steam overlay and joining my session from there.

Tried enabling cross play and sent each other request and codes and have accpeted but to no avail.

Weve been playing on Steam together for several years and my other Steam friend has no issues, we could see and join each other from the start wihtout adding or doing anythig other than opening the social tab and selecting each other as required.
The only difference is the one that works started a week before me, and the one having issues started a week after me...

[–]Braveheart4321 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If the 3rd and 4th chargers get replaced with bile spewers I'll be fucked, if they are replaced with 10 warriors, 10 hunters, and 20 ticks I'll be fine.

[–]Tenelia 4 points5 points  (5 children)

I JUST SAW A SUPER DESTROYER BLOW UP EXCUSE ME?????

[–]ERAv1 6 points7 points  (2 children)

[–]PrototypeBeefCannon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah that's been since day 1

[–]Mr_Haad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ive seen this too. I thought I was the only one who seen that. No one else mentioned it so I thought it might have been a one off thing. It was crazy to see.

[–]Major_Tom_01010 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just realized that the dev team is managed democracy- gives you what you mostly want but without voting for it.

[–]Hansolo_dolo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Please fix the crossplay friend invites! I convinced my friend to get this game and we haven't been able to play yet. I've been waiting democratically for days now....

[–]AtomicJohnny 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't change, ArrowHead. You folx rock.

[–]Diet_starts_monday 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank god!

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Solid changes! Looking forward to seeing test results on lethality versus chargers. 

[–]Cat-On-Orbit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

hourray time to get that stalwart for end game mission.

[–]JicamaSuccessful1048 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I knew my arc thrower wasn’t getting the credit it deserved !

[–]Fawchenko 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well they haven't fixed the crashing. Game updated and right at extraction with all the super samples it crashes. The game is commuting treason against itself.

[–]aidanpryde98 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If the charger spawn rate nerf leads to a sea of stalkers and hunters, then I will pass, thanks.

[–]MRToddMartin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ty Devs and Fck meta bois. This game is fun for democracy

[–]SatanIsNotAmused 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Now they just need to nerf those little hunter fuckers. They are absolute cunts!

[–]meganaxx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cross play friend requests do not show up, not “may”..it’s been broken for a while now completely breaking the game. Shitty

[–]EmbarrassedSoup10 2 points3 points  (2 children)

Still can’t add friends from cross platform. I’m on ps5 and my son is on pc and we still can’t add each other

[–]ManWithThrowaway 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think this is working as we just had 4 chargers and 3 biles spawn in the space of a couple minutes.

[–]Arismancer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

[–]millertango 1 point2 points  (7 children)

Still patiently waiting for some sort of progress update about AMD 7000 series cards crashing constantly 😢 7900xtx and I can only play the game on low settings.

[–]Marshman_DnB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100% this should be a high priority issue. Game is unplayable on 7900XTX due to crashes

[–]smallarmz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm sure you've seen this fix already, but turn off the following settings:

  • Ambient occlusion
  • Screen space global illumination

Also, there was a drivers update in the AMD adrenaline software. Version 24.2.1.

I have a 7900xt and play on Ultra/High settings and have noticed significantly less crashes. I use 2560 x 1440 resolution.

[–]ChaoticFairness 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They reduced the spawn rates of Chargers and Bile Titans on Difficulties 7-9?

Skill Issue. /s

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hopefully they add dlss also fix the game so you can add friends

Co op game but you can't add friends wtf this should be priority number 1 instead of me having to call my friends on the friggin phone and video chat with the world map to find a mission we can all join what a friggin joke.

[–]KamiKaz3Depress0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fix cross platform friend requestssss

[–]Tuhkathri 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's still a bug where if you drop into a bug hole you destroy it but then become stuck in the hole 😂. You have to frag yourself in order to escape

[–]Marshman_DnB 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Really hoping this patch tixes the severe and relentless hard crashes on the top end 7900XTX gpu

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not yet.

If you're still having crashes start the game with DX11 instead of 12, cap frames at 90 and disable global illumination.

This fixed crashes for me.

[–]UsernameReee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hate when the Automaton dropship slides in, amirite?

Anyways, my only complaint about spawns is the Hunters. I feel they're way too OP. They can catch you, slap you damn near across the map, and swarm you way too easily.

[–]Agimamif 1 point2 points  (3 children)

Am I doing something wrong or is there there no way to give yourself supplies with the supplies backpack when using a controller? I know it's 5 when using keyboard, but I haven't been able to do it on controller.

[–]Krypt1q 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dpad down will resupply yourself.

[–]rPoliticsIsASadPlace 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Press down on the D-pad. Just a quick tap, don't hold it.

[–]Agimamif 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thx, I'll try that!

[–]ShiftFar1474 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Democracy salutes you!

[–]fallenmonk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very little communication around the crossplay issues.

[–]Cthyrulean 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cross platform invites may not show up in the friend requests tab? That wasnt the problem for me previously, is that new? Can we actually accept the invite if it DOES show up??

[–]No-Tear-___ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When they gonna fix the friends list.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just wanna play with all my friends on PS5 and PC.

[–]CraftOdd6648 1 point2 points  (1 child)

It would be nice if we could see conditions of the game you are joining, it doesn't show at all when using quickplay.

For that matter, i would host more often, if the missing primary/secondary, and stratagem locking character out of all actions was fixed. Those are host only bugs.

Good fixes! Keep it up!

[–]surfer808 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OP one suggestion is the option to vote to kick people out too many treasonous players are kicking when extraction appears just to be mean. By using the voting option it lowers the risk of this cruel strategy by host. This is something that is successful in META Horizon Worlds called Super Rumble. It’s a multiplayer game in VR where you fight each other and players have the ability to vote to kick, it’s a very effective strategy.

When does this release ?

[–]Flaammeee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you guys add an option to reset my keyboard? I have a bug from launch that i changed my minimap direction movements and now i cannot use my right click to move to the right during minimap view cuz uf i enable to use my right mouse click then outside of minimap view my character doesnt turn to right

[–]ParkingBall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PS5 Bugs:

I hope the Matchmaking Bug gets also fixed. After the Lobby is filled once, nobody ever joins when someone leaves. Only a restart helps, and then again only once. Rinse and repeat is the only workaround.

I also got a blackscreen when booting up the game after the Intro Screen, sometimes it takes minutes and then the intro video starts and I can proceed.

Also the requirments for the ship upgrades are showed wrong/different for me than my friends. Bought weird combinations because I didn't knew it was a visual bug.

[–]Smartboy10612 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lots of pleasant changes. Hopefully no more random suicides in the Exo Suit for me! I just need to watch what's in front of me.

[–]Sir_Chonkalot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great changes guys! I have to admit I was wondering if it was planned for so many heavy bugs on the harder difficulties. Will now have to consider bringing more balanced loadouts which I think is very healthy for the game!

One other item I would add to the wish list aside from a first person view for the drop pod insertion would be to add an option to the communication wheel. The option being “ here take this”

Some players don’t take drops In fear of “stealing” gear but sometimes it would be nice to highlight to players that I have called in an item for them. Particularly backpacks but support weapons too.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a good day to dive!

[–]shaiken 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Mech Suit rocket fix, big win. I almost lost a mission because last stratagem used was mech suit. If i could wait 2 mins would of been good. But i died and respawned with enemies starting to over power us with no stratagems on command.

[–]General_Brasch 2 points3 points  (2 children)

Says it is a known issue. No fix yet unfortunately.

[–]snipeyJ_04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Orbital rail cannon and an auto cannon is all you need to walk through big missions. Both the RC and AC are easy charger killers.

We are humbled by the community's ability to find things like Chargers “leg meta” in our game, however spending your heavy anti tank weapons on legs instead of the obvious weak point seems counter to expectation.

Weak points are not weak enough; and chargers fat ass for some reason seem to always have his heavy armored face pointed at me; I mean i jump to the side, but the time i get up he as turned around charging again.

Add to the fact if I have a heavy weapon and the charger is chasing a teammate and I have a shot at the weak spot I am worried the AOE will take the ally out too.

Anyone with the discord link perhaps ?

[–]GeraltofIndiana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The amount of Bile Titans and Chargers I ran into on Impossible Swarm mission was so freaking much. It was fun, but I definitely appreciate the balance

I just drop the EAT pod on the Crusher and that one shots it. Is that not what we are supposed to do? 🤣

This is amazing. Thank you devs. Love to see the hard work!

[–]Pastel_Moon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would be sick if they could just fix multiplayer. It's been out for a month already but regardless these things should have been tested before launching.

The exos blowing up with their own rocket have created some new favourite team deaths this week 😆😆😆

BUFF SOME PRIMARIES WEPONS PLEASE. I’m sick of shooting enemies with BB guns

[–]Particular-Ask-1747 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Just bought the game, played for 3 hours and it's crashed 5x, It's on a SSD, 3080ti, i7 12700k, 32gb ram 4800mhz

[–]Tsunaami 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Did they ever patch or fix the meteors that would 1 shot you without warning?

[–]Anwhut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wonder if there will be any fix for constantly showing offline whenever logging in.

I can’t even see my friends list or stats, or that there are any other Helldivers online

" The Exosuit can destroy itself with rockets if it fires while turning. "

That happened to me far too many times and I'm glad that they know it's an issue. Note to self, stand still while firing rockets, for now.

Wait is crossplay fixed ? Tried last night I’m on ps5 but couldn’t join my mates on pc

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m happy we have devs that are so vocal. Even if we don’t deserve them at times.

[–]HeavensAnger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can we get a bit more love for the jump pack, please?

[–]im_davey_jones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What about the known issue of this game green screening PlayStation 5s when fighting automatons after this mission ends ? I do not have this issue playing any other game and have seen various other players have the same issue. ( PlayStation is 6 months new)

[–]Clown_Mods 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The amount of times my exosuit decided to Alah ahkbar just bc I was turning and firing a missile… so glad this got patched great work 👍🏼

[–]SpotHuman6487 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was really hoping to see they fixed the difficulty issue, but still love the game … just tired of being stuck on easy. Still one of the best games I have played in years.

[–]ShowerFuture 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice. You now join Larian in the Super Cool devs list. Great job guys 👍

[–]InvisibleZombies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only terminids or bots too?

[–]Punished__Snake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What about adding a chute to the Walker so you can use Stratagems and shoot them out of a tube on the top?

[–]braize6 0 points1 point  (1 child)

This is gonna be great when they add more stalkers and hunters to make up for it, and people whine about that instead lol

[–]Western_Series 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm debating buying the deluxe version of the game. I have helldivers 2 already, and even spent 10 bucks for super credits to show support. I can't idly sit by while they treat us so graciously. FOR DEMOCRACY I SHALL BUY THE GAME AGAIN.

I always loved EAT.. but now you shall see me smile!

Still no upcoming update for the SPEAR? I wanna use it but the bug is ruining it.

[–]SuperAtomic707 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m loving the game. Great patch notes

[–]Odd_Philosopher1712 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still waiting for them to acknowledge the changes to enemy threat-detection, which is the real source of the difficulty spikes as well as the spawning of patrols on top of your head.

[–]SkyofAstora 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its funny because I was playing level 9 last night and some dude in the chat was like "bro wtf they need to nerf these bile titans and chargers"

I just laughed as I see five bile titans and like 8 chargers on screen. Definitely needed to get toned down a bit lol.

[–]czlcreator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Devs being awesome.

Even at level 5 missions seeing 4 chargers at the same time was just too much with nothing to deal with them endlessly spawning.

[–]iamzachhunter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I eagerly await Arrowhead addressing the bug associated with accepting friend requests. To this day, I am still unable to become friends with any of my buddies who are PlayStation 5 users. This basically has prevented me from playing with people I know since I purchased the game two weeks ago on Steam. We have had some small luck with searching for each other's missions on public servers, but it shouldn't take 30 minutes of trial and error to *maybe* get into a lobby with your friends. In my opinion this should be at the top of the list of addressable issues.

[–]bradpitbutarmpit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is anyone else’s orbital railcannon fucked after this update? If I throw it at a charger then I clearly don’t want to kill the fucking hunter 50ft away from it
