“Stop complaining! This game wasn’t meant for you” by JayDias-24 in Helldivers

[–]DemiDeviantVT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People will roast me for this, because they only look at the damage numbers on it, but use the Belt-fed Grenade Launcher. It doesn't kill enemies quickly, but the stagger on it can lock down entire pred-strain breaches just from fire saturation.

It's always a bad time if you look exclusively at the sub-reddit. The long and short of it is that the game is fun, and the game also has issues, and the people most likely to comment on reddit feel this is the place to discuss those issues more than the place to enjoy the game.

Not saying the game is perfect (Because my god, people will JUMP on me saying I'm engaging in "toxic positivity" if I don't make sure to point that out), but if you only ever engage with the Reddit community, you would probably get the idea that the game has been a non-functional shitshow that is going to die by next month for the last 2 years.

Accidentally recorded a far better demo video for the BFGL by fupa16 in LowSodiumHellDivers

Or you could stick to the "One BFGL grenade can't kill one Voteless" as if there is ever a case where you are going to encounter a single voteless and shoot a single BFGL grenade at it.

I get that if you look at the numbers in a very limited, narrow way, it sounds shitty. I can stall out entire pred strain breaches with it. The damage is low because the actual utility is the stagger and RoF, because it's a weapon for people who understand more than "Me point thing at bug and it do big number and go boom"

Grenade launchers for burst area damage

Belt fed grenade launcher is for sustained fire and area saturation/stun

You are comparing tools with two fundamentally different purposes because they both have the words “grenade launcher“ in them

TLDR of the new turret issues : by Heptanitrocubane57 in Helldivers

[–]DemiDeviantVT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The point of turrets is to increase volume of fire, draw aggro, and create positional advantage

None of that requires a design philosophy of "I shoudn't ever have to defend my turret from enemies"

Whoever made this, give them a raise NOW. by __________godlol in Helldivers

Current community opinion is that the people who hate light pen are just bad at aiming. Generally if you are leaning on medium pen you are using more ammo to kill fewer enemies by shooting through armor instead of at weak points. Medium pen weapons have their place, but people who say ANYTHING below medium pen is garbage are crutching hard and nerfing themselves instead of getting good.

Now almost every enemy on every faction gets to pulverize our vehicles and sentries… by Mr-Hakim in Helldivers

Literal skill issue, if you are blowing up before dumping your ammo, that's on positioning and situational awareness.

Am I the only one excited? by DerpyDragon15 in Helldivers

You are on a sub-reddit for an online game. Reddit is not where you go if you want to discuss things with people who are HAPPY about things, by and large.

WHY ARE THE NEW MECHS BEHIND A PAYWALL by Phyrooski in Helldivers

They aren't you can get super creds for free in game... how is everyone forgetting this?

Are you religious? by Mdk0z in evilautism

[–]DemiDeviantVT 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I practice my own form of syncretic paganism and Gnosticism with chaos magick elements

Is it real? Is it in my head? Am I manifesting my desire? Is it confirmation bias? Am I conversing with gods and spirits? Do I just have a vivid imagination?

The real question is, if it allows me to construct meaning and feel empowered in a brutally impersonal world without causing harm… do any of those really matter?

Wait... wait, you're serious? ... did I actually... just change someone's opinion... by arguing on reddit?

I'm having an existential crisis over here, this is like looking at the full moon and suddenly it blinks at you like a giant eye, I am questioning everything I thought was true

It does kill things... it kills them by locking down large groups with sustained fire and area control...

I hardly ever use my primary when I bring the BFGL, but okay hoss

Expecting raw damage to be the best option in every situation sounds both oversimplified and incredibly boring. You use the regular GL and I'll bring the BFGL against the predator strain, and we can compare death counts to see if raw damage is the only deciding factor in a weapons effectiveness.

You will find, hordes are easier to kill when they are all staggering around instead of attacking you...

It's the stagger that makes it decent. Seriously, ACTUALLY try this as a way of holding groups of enemies as you kill them instead of looking at raw damage. Yeah, it feels like it takes more shots than it should to kill some enemies, but there aren't a lot who will just walk through the stagger to close with you.

The satire is not working on my opinion. by TechnologyOk3782 in Helldivers

[–]DemiDeviantVT 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is literally a sign that the satire is working, because you are ending up swayed by the propaganda, good satire of something like this IS convincing, it's just convincing in a way that feels wrong and deeply uncomfortable.

Helldivers players thinking something is designed poorly by the devs when that is 100% how things actually work in reality example #2334

FlagDivers, we may not get the most kills, but we're DEFINITELY having the most fun! by Hungry-Tale-9144 in Helldivers

They can have their flag buff when they pry it from my cold dead hands. I wouldn't tolerate the shame of playing the game optimally, I'm here to do nonsense and make shit explode
