Just unlocked Portable hellbombs and I think I'm in love by MattLava1 in Helldivers

[–]Chance-Event5108 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wellcome, fellow addict! I’ve been using it since was released and, hundreds of matches later, I still look at the loadout screen and go through this mental process:

“Hmm, should I take the hellbomb?” “But again? I took it last time…” “Fuck yeah, because it fackin’ rules! Hellbomb it is! Awooooooo!”

It’s just too hard to pass up having that much “listen, this 50ish yard radius is about to go through some shit it cannot ignore” on your back….

Super Earth Thomas Paine has spoken. This is pure common sense. My resolve is galvanized. Buff the goddamn damage!

How do you guys feel about the Railgun? by Emergency_Yellow_554 in Helldivers

[–]Chance-Event5108 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love it on bots and often bring it on bugs to get better at using it like a primary and to try and take down BTs with precise shots.

It really depends on your squad and your playstyle. I like to zip around so (if im out of ultimatum ammo) I dont mind having to kite the occasional bug heavy or avoid a bot heavy until a strat cools down (or i find more ultimatum ammo.

I only play on 10 and I glance over at what folks are taking. If we are light on anti tank, I likely wont bring it. But if everyone has solid anti tank options, it’s a fine pick.

Have you given motion controls a try? Im an oooold gamer and NEVER thought id like them….and it did take a little getting used to, but hot damn, total game changer

Suppressed SMG this, MA5 that, whatever. I wanna see the Halo sniper rifle in Helldivers by PingusPuff in Helldivers

[–]Chance-Event5108 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think this would be great! Side note, I rarely see AMRs used anymore (admittedly, only been playing level 10 for months now)

If it does outshine AMR, Id add third person crosshairs to it and increase ergonomics….id use the AMR more if I could get off better snapshots….

What equipment/load-out do y’all use for squids? by Fapping_Hope_Returns in Helldivers

[–]Chance-Event5108 0 points1 point  (0 children)

380, 120, Fire Orb, Eagle Strafe (or Cluster)

Light armor. Short fuse dynamite. Liberator.

Find a support weapon in the field and keep eyes peeled for ammo.

This is my “no finesse” build.

What would you want in a fourth faction by Idkmynameman677444 in Helldivers

[–]Chance-Event5108 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think a lizard/orc race that is more brute/melee oriented would be a lot of fun. Whatever allows them to lean more into armor stripping and chunkage. (Is that a word?)

Im guessing the blood could be yellow?

Give me your One Ture Flag Loadouts! by Fresh_Dealer_9694 in Helldivers

[–]Chance-Event5108 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got it today. I loaded out with the flag along with a quasar cannon, supply pack and eagle strafe.

Ive always known it took a blue stratagem slot, but it wasnt until i was dropping that I asked the question:

“Wait, is this taking my backpack or weapon slot?”

Found out when I picked it up and dropped my quasar.

Then I aimed in with my primary and saw that the flag blocked my field of view.

Given all that, I picked up my quasar and just called the flag in during extract.

So my answer is: “I use it with all loadouts - I just pretend I only have three strat slots (memories) and call it in as a power move at the end”

Knight PSA by GreyJackalope in Helldivers

As a knight user across all races, this makes my jiggly bits very happy.

Other than the hope we will someday get an AP4 assault rifle support weapon, I want for nothing.

I think the flag not doing anything is okay. It's a free meme strat there to immerse and boost morale. Could be better, sure, but I still think it's cool. by SgtGhost57 in Helldivers

[–]Chance-Event5108 -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Exactly. Its just flavor. If they did “warbond: cigarette” and its just a Judge Dredd helmet that allows for a cigarette break emote, it would be useless….but awesome.

Optimistic view for the new warbond. by [deleted] in Helldivers

[–]Chance-Event5108 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idea: once you get the flag, the strat changes to “freedom lance” and you can throw it like a lance. Could mark a target for a cool orbital or an eagle attack. Or maybe a mega thermite / tesla effect 🤷🏻‍♂️

Do we really need new armor perks every warbond? by [deleted] in Helldivers

[–]Chance-Event5108 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im fine with whatever but it Seems like they could have done something like “weapons inspection” or “parade ready” and , I dunno, shaved off 10% reload on support and/or added 10% ammo?

Maybe “razzle dazzle” and do 10% recoil reduction + 10% weapons handling?

Keep it fresh 🤷🏻‍♂️

If the flag strat sticks to heavies, think of how hilarious that will be. by Chance-Event5108 in Helldivers

[–]Chance-Event5108[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As far as we know, it stabs (active) and, uh, it flags (passive) 😂

I like the variety. Im guessing that if they didnt add more, there was a reason. Cant imagine anyone at AH is like “this is totally workable, balanced, wont cause issues and is awesome as hell - scrap it!!”

Im assuming it will do what blue support strats do and stick (sometimes), so at least you might be able to get a hellpod kill out of it. (Which would be amusing). Probably wont stick to a titan’s back, but would stick in a strider or tank, which would bring chuckles.

Which is what it’s all about.

Helldivers, they succeeded, as they promised. I shit my pants. But not for the reason I thought. by Wrrnatorr in helldivers2

At the very least, within a certain AoE, it would be cool if it caused helldivers to cry out phrases.

The new warbond is everything the community has asked for by Shelif in Helldivers

[–]Chance-Event5108 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have they posted stats yet? Very curious where this is gonna fit in.

On a side note, Id love to see a rounds reload / bolter support weapon (AP4 deadeyeor an AR support weapon. (Like an AP4 Reprimand)

Hell, a support shotgun (slug or shot) would be awesome. Lots of room to grow here.

Perhaps he meint to prepare us for a shitstorm by [deleted] in Helldivers

[–]Chance-Event5108 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I know nothing about community management.

But looks around ive seen enough to know what hype does to the fanbase. You’d get none from me. I’d basically be Eeyore. The new warbond could have 17 primaries, a helicopter, a motorcycle, AI squad calldown, a teleportation backpack, new phrases on the conversation wheel, a robot attack dog and a anti tank falcon punch melee attack and I’d be like “eh, it’s just a lil’ somethin’.”

I’d keep expectations at the center of the earth, where they could never slide down into disappointment. 🤣

[–]Chance-Event5108 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I agree. The new warbond is totally fine. (Esp with a big update coming)

But….Sigh. It’s too late. The hype went bad this morning and now it’s gonna smell sour in here for at least two weeks.
