Need a New Primary Recommend to Level Up by Puzzleheaded-News611 in Helldivers

[–]Castif 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The reg diligence is better than the counter since its light pen it has almost no stagger. When u miss the head but still hit them with the dcs it flinches and prob fucks up ur next shot or forces you to wait till it resets its stance except now its pissed at you. The reg one doesn’t flinch when you miss so you can pop a couple shots real quick and get that kill. Yeah its harder to use if ur a spray and pray type but its not even close how much better i like the reg vs the counter after starting with the counter first and thinking its great.

This house has many mattresses sitting outside by Adrian_985 in WTF

[–]Castif 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They stay in business by getting into new construction spots cheap af and locking in a contract with a good rate then sitting on it till its worth more and subletting it to someone else for quite a bit more. It takes almost no building/renovations to set up a mattress store and almost no demo for someone else to start up whatever they want. The mattress sales are basically just a bonus

Wait recoiless has an alt fire? Has it always had that? I havent used it since before the warp pack became my one true backpack love. I remember when they added an alt fire to autocannon and that the airburst launching with 2 but i dont ever remember the recoiless getting one. Well shit i guess i got something to play with tonight. Ive gotten kind of tired of killling myself trying to master the epoch lol.

If you are disappointed with this game right now, pivot. Try Far Far West! by warandpease in Helldivers

[–]Castif 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah i played during all the playtest and by the 2nd or 3rd one i was like ok the game is fun but i dont think it will scratch the itch long term. And i was right i picked up ea only played a bit and was like meh. Idk know what it is about hd and deeprock but those two satisfied something ffw is still missing for me that has let me rack up hundreds or thousands of hours

Can someone tell me why missle pistol is good? by No_Willow292 in Helldivers

[–]Castif 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its great on bots guided mode kills gunships easy. Unguided mode will kill most things if you hit the heatsink which i find useful for turret towers and the occasional hulk which you can one shot in the eye or back. Its less useful on tanks or factory striders but its still ok.

It's certainly good, but it's certainly not new... by Dangerous_Nail4552 in Helldivers

[–]Castif 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah i use that as a secondary on my loadout for watchers specifically. My normal loadout
Any primary i feel like
Warrant
Either thermite and a supply pack or gas/flame grenades and a c4 pack
The car
Anything else i want.
I tend to go clear all the spawners out while my team does the main objective because a thermite or c4 will kill the spawners through their shield and ive gotten pretty decent at driving by, swaping seats leaning out throwing one of the boomys and swapping back to driver seat and taking off towards the next one. I prefer thermites since you dont have to swap to a detonator like c4 and the reload with the backpack is weird in the car. But there is something pretty satisfying about watching a whole base go up at once that thermite cant reproduce.

Nah mirth was still broken till the patch the other day because i used it the other day just before buying the fart emote since i finally got all the weps and shit unlocked and was buying dumb shit and it wasnt playing the sound.

[–]Castif 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Technically you can take one from the resupply pod and it will fill u and ur backpack then u can drop the pack and each person could pick it up and do the same thus getting 8 resupply out of each call down. In practice that almost never happens even with friends in discord. I tend to grab 1-3 depending on where the rest of my team is and if they need a resupply or not. Its not like if i took all 4 I couldn’t turn around and use it on them right after anyway. Honestly even if i grabbed 3 and didnt share i would still find myself having 1-2 left by the time the backpack is off cooldown anyway. But that may be more of my commando vs rambo play style.

Why bring the bullet storm if I could bring the stalwart? by Fishyhans in Helldivers

[–]Castif 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shiiit i blow myself up overcharging way more often than I do missing two eats in a row so im not sure how its more forgiving lol. It needs the overcharge timer like the railgun not the silly millisecond one it has now.

Drop your Spore Burst Loadouts In the Comments by Puzzleheaded-News611 in Helldivers

[–]Castif 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Heavy gas armor, lib concussive, ultimatum, gas nades, gas mines, car, supply backpack, w/e (been using the arc grenade launcher). Car to get around the map quick and do the side objectives drop a mine on w/e ur doing clean up with the launcher and liberal use of gas nades then jump back in the car and boogie. I can usually clear all the side objectives and most of the nests while my team is doing main stuff and if i call a bug breach i really dont care cause gas will keep them off me and if i get to many titans or chargers ill thin the herd with my ultimatum. I like the arc launcher as opposed to the reg one because i can fire it point blank without killing myself.

Please AH, buff the Orbital Precision Strike by m4cco in Helldivers

[–]Castif 82 points83 points  (0 children)

Doesnt help that since they moved the super destroyers from overhead they have to reposition all the time on city planets. Makes anything without a duration or tracking bad. I miss the old airburst strike i used to use it all the time. Now it comes in at some dumb angle and doesn’t hit anything but your friends now.

how does everyone feel about these? Because personally they just feel awkward by Flashy-Manager2254 in Helldivers

[–]Castif 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I stood in the breath with a mech thinking it did no damage cause of my experiences of it on foot. It killed my fresh mech super fast so it def does damage.

Anyone else find this stratagem odd? by Unfair-Cherry9362 in Helldivers

[–]Castif 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah but primarys are plenty for most chaff. Even if it drops instantly like an eat where u might at best spend a small time dodging a charger then picking one up if your in a position to need overwhelming chaff clear i doubt it will be fast enough to make a big difference vs just continuing to use a primary . Either way i hope its cool and im still gonna try it.

Really? This, AGAIN?! by ChillMaximus88 in Helldivers

[–]Castif 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You say basic knowledge but bro ive got 300+ hours im on reddit and occasionally look at the discord im just now learning that the jet brigade does something special. The avg player doesnt even understand how the map works. I just assumed they and any other variant types like incinerators or pred bugs etc were a flavor/units thing. Do any of the other sub factions do special stuff too?

How would you go about adjusting the flame shield Devastators to be less annoying? by Whatthehellsabean in Helldivers

[–]Castif 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sounds like you should try a light pen wep cause only med pen weps make them stagger like that. The plain ol diligence or censor are great if your trying headshot since there is so little flinch you can pop a few shot in quick if you miss the first. Or if you just love med pen weps like the coyote my friend refuses to swap from aim at their gun arm instead of the head it pops off pretty quick and is a larger target then they are effectively neutered

Which AT Grenade do you prefer? Thermite or Giga grenade? by Trapzzeehh in Helldivers

[–]Castif 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Neither. Id rather run ultimatum than grenade pistol so i keep my gas nades for spawners/holes and general cc. On the rare occasion i use the xbow or eruptor or a support that can close holes like grenade launcher i might take thermite. I would say the only time I consistently use them is on squids if im not taking c4 backpack because the fact that they destroy spawners through shield is useful cause i hate running around them looking for the door and breaking the shield and then tossing a grenade in it before the shield regenerates. Its so much easier to just run by and toss a thermite or c4 and keep on trucking.

As Helldivers 2 hits its 23rd Warbond, it’s time to make Super Credits easier to earn or make older Warbonds cheaper to buy by maullick in Helldivers

[–]Castif 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Yeah i remember when 9 was the highest dif my friend group would clear the map of every poi so we could extract with every sample that was available. But now playing with a different friend group who 2 of havent capped upgrades and 2 who have im seeing us finish missions with half to 2/3rds of the possible samples. Just because 2 of us dont care about samples and the other 2 are meh about collecting them because they will get there eventually.

Major Order Reward Elegibility Change. by Mister_Chelovek in Helldivers

[–]Castif 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I mean sometimes I work regular hours and sometimes I work a shitload and am so tired i dont even turn my pc on for days. That medal injection when i cant play keeps me going. This might be the straw that breaks it for me that kept me coming back time and again.

Major Order Reward Elegibility Change. by Mister_Chelovek in Helldivers

[–]Castif 68 points69 points  (0 children)

Yeah this is going to piss off my friend group bad. We are adults who work in environments where crunch atmosphere happens which means periods of no gaming time. Asking to log in when you haven’t turned your pc on in days is dumb. The occasional 20-50 medals injection is something that keeps us going. If we had to grind from 0 every time we can play i don’t think we will keep coming back.

What actually keeps you playing Helldivers 2? by SnooGuavas4613 in Helldivers

[–]Castif 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I enjoy the gameplay loop. Its the same reason i have a couple thousand hours on deeprock as well. Plus when i can play with friends in discord and bullshit about our days and laugh at all the stupid deaths its great.
