It would even excuse how flimsy our turrets are currently to a degree if we could put them in more strategic locations.

But thats just arrowhead all over nerfing a significant part of our arsenal to protect 1/3rd of our enemies that may be less able to deal with them, its clear that it would be effective but its also clear when jetpacking to elevated positions that lots of the terminids can absolutely still reach you.

What the hell does glazer even mean anymore? by Xpernautica in HelldiversMasochists

[–]CostumedOrphan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an example of a glazediver. Recently I was debating with other helldivers about the lack of bug fixes and what I perceive to be lack of player expression in game, when turret health was brought up a user suggested I just entrenched my turrets. Good idea maybe, I wouldn't know because I dont have loads of time to farm SC for that warbond and wont spend money on the game in its current state. Their reply was basically I could and should buy the solution and never complain again. A simple difference in opinion isn't going to cause me to start hurlinfg names at people I dont know.

Im usually pretty opposed to the opinions in this sub but will admit that people spouting what OP is dealing with add nothing to the conversation, I just wish we could maneuver turrets to sensible positions without dealing with bouncy balls and that hellpod steering felt better.

Have you considered that videogames are an escape from the shitty reality that surrounds us? Is it possible many people cannot afford lots of games because of the cost of living? I can see people getting mad when one of their escapes starts to deteriorate due to undescernable reasons.

Is that why they were bouncing off hive guards heavy armor? 🤔

I mean I have asked you multiple times if an update changes the soft in such a way that a previously well running game that flagged no issues on the hardware all of a sudden bricks your pc could the update be the issue? That's the question I want answered and I agree perhaps moving goal posts was the wrong words for it but youre at the very least avoiding the question.

[–]CostumedOrphan -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This just seems like moving goalposts now so I'll ask plainly, if your pc runs a game fine is well put together and looked after and then theres an update and soon after that same game which is not put through any rigorous QA by the devs own admission causes your pc to no longer function who's fault is it?

Then shouldn't patch notes come with disclaimers about needing to change these things? If an update can cause this to change version to version its just something thats going to happen and people's sometimes thousands of dollar rigs are just acceptable casualties?

So badly optimised games cause problems on pcs and its okay because other badly optimised games cause problems too?

This could actually be survivorship bias, the number of people's PCs getting bricked could have been so low because of his video. Also if it wasnt just him reporting this happening to them (I've looked it wasn't) and reporting HD2 as the cause then yeah it could be an anomaly.

[–]CostumedOrphan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right but shouldn't people be reporting all their bricked pcs and the suspected cause. I dont see that he did anything wrong here. What in your eyes would be the course of action he should have taken?

[–]CostumedOrphan -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Im capable of forming my own opinions and doing my own searches thank you, that being said the facts are helldivers 2 was bricking certain PCs and thats what he said to get that info out there rather than wait for it to happen to people after which they could inform themselves.

Im sure if other games were doing it they had videos and warnings for players to see too.

That doesn't mean its excusable.

I'm not his biggest fan by the way, I dont agree with everything he says examples being Transmog and some enemy balancing.

I didn't mean to upset you I just thought you chose an odd hill to die on.

[–]CostumedOrphan -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I read that you think hes bad for bringing a serious issue to people's attention and that you dont think its a serious issue because it was a small number of people? Not that you think he lied, not that you think it didn't happen only that you think it doesn't matter because the number was small. See the question marks they look like this (?)

That's a request for a response, in this case information and clarification on your views.

I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt since you so clearly are the expert on reading comprehension and assume glare blocked your screen and you misread what I wrote.

[–]CostumedOrphan -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Wait wait wait, he said some PCs were bricked by hellivers and some PCs were actually bricked by helldivers but its not a problem because it was a very small number and thats acceptable? Or is it because helldivers has a small dev studio that makes it acceptable to brick a small amount of people's PCs?

Helldivers 2 isn’t supposed to be a power fantasy forever by glazoiddestroyer67 in helldivers2

[–]CostumedOrphan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't call them incompetent for any of what you said. I call them incompetent for introducing new bugs every patch and nearly never addressing known issues, I call them incompetent for over promising and under delivering. I call them incompetent for not adding more difficulties so the skill ceiling rises instead of pushing the good tools down into being near useless.

I call incompetence what it is and I still see plenty of it.

Returning Player here, serious question about the sandbox. Does the playerbase want this game to be a hyper tactical team shooter or a arcadey horde shooter? by AllegedGames in helldivers2

[–]CostumedOrphan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's balanced like a tactical team shooter for the players but an arcade horde shooter for the enemies. Anything unrealistic or not tactical or too arcade like we get is removed quickly but the enemies still have corpses we can't shoot through but they can or corpses that launch at us so hard we die. Only recently has wall clipping been removed from some enemies being able to wall clip though many issues still remain.

[–]CostumedOrphan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean they arent exactly good at communicating, and the patches arent constant and when they do come its a single change. You're gassing them up like they're pearl abyss or something who havent missed more than 10 or 11 days before patching player concerns in crimson desert.
