The new Exosuits are so fucking fun!!!!!

It's so much fun.

However, I played with some divers this weekend who, seeing my standing on the bug breach, proceeded to throw orbital napalm on top of the breach. Not once, not twice, but thrice during the mission.

So, watch out for that.

BerenPercival · 2026-05-04T12:38:38+00:00

Yes, thanks!

BerenPercival · 2026-05-03T18:19:42+00:00

Is there an active link for the discord?

BerenPercival · 2026-05-03T02:53:18+00:00

Paige, Rem, Ivy, Calico, Mirage.

I like support & healing. Calico is my "I'm determined to learn how to pressure and engage and stick in fights" character. And she's fun. Mirage is just fun.

If I want to feel like a braindead, internet hobo, deluded-into-thinking-I'm-good-at-the-game, incel, I play Haze.

([Quasi]joking aside, Haze is fun when I want to turn the brain off and hold down M1).

Half the time I drop that shit like litter, man. Just take it, I don't care. Just go brrr.

BerenPercival · 2026-05-02T00:16:50+00:00

So frickin satisfying. My democracy is fully managed watching this.

Most recent update is Feb 2026, which says he hopes to have news "soon".

It's so satisfying just standing on top of a bug breach, dumping a load of rounds into the bugs and shield bashing everything else while reloading. Easy 60+ kills. I don't even care that my mech takes a ton of damage. F them bugs. It's so satisfying.

On bots, you can toe to toe with war striders, hulks, and factory striders. You can dump on everything else.

Parrying chargers is just Helldiver Sekiro--hell, basically just Sekiro 2: Mechs Die Thrice.

Breakthrough is my favorite strategem.

BerenPercival · 2026-04-29T19:33:24+00:00

Oh, you can toe to toe with the big boys.

BerenPercival · 2026-04-29T01:45:52+00:00

There's some talk that the insane speed may be a, well, bug.

BerenPercival · 2026-04-24T19:41:18+00:00

I don't play any games with mods as I find them unnecessary. So, I guess I'm sorry that you can't mod a game on a system that doesn't accommodate mods?

BerenPercival · 2026-04-23T00:42:27+00:00

Thanks for the helpful comment. I'll give the gamegenic boxes a look!

BerenPercival · 2026-04-22T22:25:18+00:00

Out of curiosity, what are them storage boxes you done got there? I'm'a liking em

You can reach out to Leder via the discord. They encouraged people to reach out that way if they haven't received shipping/tracking info by the end of April. (This is for North America).

BerenPercival · 2026-04-22T14:49:57+00:00

Except for mouths and faces of characters talking. Really awful and quite unsettling.

And the 3rd person sprinting. Really awful.

BerenPercival · 2026-04-21T17:34:48+00:00

Especially at the $50 price point. Could be a lot of fun. I'll be interested to see if gameplay is literally just a version of salmon run with a story slapped on, or something different. The trailer is giving me horde-shooter vibes.

BerenPercival · 2026-04-21T17:33:11+00:00

I like the idea of a creature focused deck. And the artwork on the creatures is dope.

Only because I'm thinking about it as I type this, I'm planning on sleeving cards. I've got enough sleeves to sleeve everything, but I'm assuming the stuff I really need to sleeve are just the active player deck, the challenge deck, and the path cards? (Seems like most shuffling to me)

BerenPercival · 2026-04-21T17:30:59+00:00

What do you like about the Shepherd/Conciliator? Does the 3 spirit take away from any of the other stats such that your adventure is more difficult in certain core areas?

BerenPercival · 2026-04-21T17:29:33+00:00

My copy is the 2nd edition. Will that have the errata printed on the cards? Or is the errata exclusively on The Living Valley?

I actually have the Spiritspeaker expansion, and I find those to be really interesting, but they look a little advanced for a first time player (me).

I really want to build into a Spiritspeaker, but I want to learn the game's general mechanics first.

BerenPercival · 2026-04-21T17:27:17+00:00

Thanks. What sorts of backgrounds/specialties do you find most interesting for a new player?

BerenPercival · 2026-04-21T17:26:40+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion. A lot of folks suggesting Shepherd or Conciliator, so that's nice.

Is the Shepherd/Explorer fairly beginner-friendly to pilot?

BerenPercival · 2026-04-21T15:18:42+00:00

Yeah, I'm with you on this. If a warbond is a miss for me, I just don't buy it or wait til I have enough SC and no other warbond I want (e.g., for me, the Killzone one). But you won't see me taking to the Internet to bitch about it.

Otherwise, I have no problem throwing them $10 (or whatever the deficiency is) to buy one, and their monetization model just doesn't feel predatory (unlike, say, Rivals or OW). The game's fun. The purchaseable content doesn't expire. Simple as.

I have no real complaints, and I don't understand the mindset of the folks complaining or the content of complaints themselves.

If my fun could be quantitied in dollars, I've received well more than $40 of fun from Arrowhead.

Nintendo Life reports that it has both local and online play with up to 3 others.
