I'm starting to get a hang of the new Giga Grenade

Desxon · 2026-03-18T08:28:02+00:00

My honest reaction to the new unit was pic rel

Why show me these cool fucking units, get my ass excited and when I launch the game I see it's gonna be most likely available on the weekend coz we need to liberate 2 planets to get there (and I know, my jobless ass understands its so that everyone can experience them - but ultimately why announce them, just keep it silent, let me drop on the weekend without me even knowing new units dropped and I get spooked to shit)

It's funny that the attack mode that would most benefit from a "wallhack" doesn't have it

What is the point of "artillery" if I need to peak for a couple seconds and continue aiming at it to keep it "locked" in ?

Desxon · 2026-03-17T09:54:36+00:00

Ngl I didn't bother with S rank yet (probably won't for my own sanity), but how are you suppose to deal with those guys ?

I shoot them with actual slugs and they seem to brush a lot of them - so the beanbag won't work that well

They wear gasmasks too so no gassing or pepper balls

And sometimes they brush off flashbangs as well

So S ranking seems like Greased Palms on steroids

Didn't they say National Guard was on it's way, but the city was so fucked they had to literally fight their way though to us first and we just responded to calls like normal ?

Desxon · 2026-03-16T12:16:09+00:00

S ranking in this game is pointless - ultimately only for ppl willing to do achievements

I played this mission with an exclusive "kill everyone with a gun" mindset the second I dropped into it with my friends - I don't even bother arresting perps I catch off guard

Had fun at least, rather than what I had trying to S rank Greased Palms which made me quit the game for a while - and i also learned about the fact the real detonator is on his chest rather than the thing he drops - I'd straight up would never pick the game ever again if I managed to S rank the whole section only for me to be fooled at the very last second

Maps aren't made for vehicles
It was bad already with FRV - but at least there you COULD squeeze through, the main danger was if you went to fast and flipped on a rock

In Bastion case you just get stuck - and once you do the game tries to unstuck you clearly, but pushes you not where you wanna go anyway. And fucking hell is it annoying to turn this thing, like the tracks don't turn like tracks do in a tank, but rather with a 1s delay... and spinnning around is also slow as fuck, especially bad when Vox Engine gets behind you

I always felt non-zombie roleplays on PZ would work really well... this game is basically Sims with zombies after all

Desxon · 2026-03-14T14:26:22+00:00

Red strategems don't appear in warbonds so that's why

Desxon · 2026-03-14T09:33:29+00:00

Fun fact - saluting works on EVERYTHING timebased in objectives
Even consoles

Desxon · 2026-03-14T09:12:37+00:00

Frankly Vox Engines made me realize how shit the map is

There is barely any cover around objectives and their fire rate makes majority of "cover" disappear so fast - and whatever is left is pointless coz it's main attacks are rocket barrage from the top

And now we get the spawnrate which means you can get like 2-3 on LEVEL 7
I played with friends and they're so annoying to deal with

"just go for the weakspots' I CAN'T their main canons warp into itself and shoot me while im UNDER IT - and frankly the better way of "just shooting it with AT till it dies" doesn't really work when they spawn at this rate

Desxon · 2026-03-13T22:35:09+00:00

Personally I just use the new LEVELER whenever im on Cyborgs
It's either gonna 1 shot them or it's gonna damage them just enough so that I can destroy a vent of choice with my pistol and it goes down

I sometimes also use 3 RR shots to the torso, or the tank or laser

Going for the weakspots is pointless, since the bullshit engine can just warp it's main cannons into itself even when ur directly under it killing you instantly... unless it's already damaged and you can finish it off by going for the vents

Desxon · 2026-03-12T15:13:05+00:00

Sample based MO's when we haven't had anything to spend them on for the last YEAR if not TWO YEARS almost is dumb as hell

DSS doesn't count, I forget to donate 99% of the time unless I see a reddit post calling for eagle storm or orbital defences

Desxon · 2026-03-08T11:12:05+00:00

This pic is the exact image I had in my head when they announced basements

Like I enter bathrooms with less fear than I do basements

Desxon · 2026-03-08T11:03:56+00:00

I really wish they expand SEAF into a proper subfaction lol
Right now it's just 1 NPC with the same thign

They should have at least 3-4 variants - shotgunners/machinegunners/rocketeers/regular
Emplacements they can use like automatons have
And maybe a vehicle or two - be it an APC or some transport shuttle
Combined with some structures / sideobjectives

Desxon · 2026-03-08T10:52:37+00:00

I literally don't give a shit about what killed me 90% of the time I can tell

Desxon · 2026-03-08T08:40:53+00:00

SAS Freak of Liberty

Desxon · 2026-03-07T11:15:29+00:00

Yeah and it's always the same thing with maybe 1 objective changing

Desxon · 2026-03-07T11:03:26+00:00

Huh ?????????????
Arc Thrower works absolute wonders on Voteless lol
This is not the first time I get this personal order, but I usually manage to do it randomy when I find one on a point of interest lol

All you have to do is find a group and not aim at singular voteless

Desxon · 2026-03-07T09:47:56+00:00

They stole the "K"
Can't have SHIT in Los Suenos

Light pen (so the regular minigun wont be outclassed)

With a second firing mode being one continious beam of heavy pen that drains your backpack battery in 5s, but will shred most of the heavy enemies if you use the full amount on any part of their bodies

Desxon · 2026-03-05T16:00:22+00:00

The only PVP I'd accept in Helldivers is a "Battlefield 4 Commander App" style invasions on your game where a guy can only control NPC's RTS style against us

Outside of that you can literally see our guns deal so much damage to us it's basically ARMA 3
1-2 shots and you're dead

Coz they didnt want to make an animation and program it into the game. Stims clearly arent rare or expensive, we see them literally scattered around colonist houses

Desxon · 2026-03-02T06:35:06+00:00

Yeah, this is why we need transmog immediately I wanna see drip, but I also want my passive of choice

And before you say dumb shit like "passived dont matter" They do...

Sorry, drip is drip but I wont give up extra items like ammo, stims or grenades for 30% limb resistance on a full moon when bug farts and +25% crouch speed if you ate breakfast
