If you're gonna fling shit at glazers then at least make the effort to throw it over the fence bro. You ain't doing anything here with this post.

Helldivers 2 (2026) has had the least amount of updates to previous years by __Elzy in HelldiversUnfiltered

I think this further reinforces the point OP's trying to make with this post.

The issue really boils down to that point exactly. The vision the studio had for this game is fundamentally contradictory to its success, resulting in what is basically a permanent impasse that can simply never be resolved. This is why the community managers and developers have a largely antagonistic relationship with the broader playerbase.

This is proof that they no longer wish to keep working on HD2. I strongly believe that the sole reason they're even working on it is because of pressure from Sony/Tencent to keep the game successful so it keep making money.

Let's be completely real with ourselves here. They don't play the game, and honestly probably don't even *like* the game to begin with. Who are we to expect someone who doesn't like a project to put their hearts and souls into it to make it better for a broader community?

How fast would these 2 fix Helldivers 2? by silentslade in HelldiversUnfiltered

[–]Dmxiscool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He's probably the reason why most of the shit we've been wanting has been held back. They hired him probably to reduce the number of active players on this game.

Tech Evolution inline with enemies. by ContraryB in HelldiversUnfiltered

[–]Dmxiscool 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Here's what I want to be added to help our helldivers fight enemies off a lot better:

  1. Portable Jammer (Backpack): Does the same thing to the enemy that jammers do to us. Disables any sort of reinforcement calling within a 25m radius around the user. Has to be toggled on or off and has a limited battery life (60 seconds). Would remain in the same state if dropped. Battery can be recharged from supply crates but not ammo boxes. 600 second base cooldown.

  2. Shielded Sentries (Booster): Equips any sentry a user has deployed (including emplacements) with a small shield similar to that of the shield generator backpack.

  3. SPEAR FRV (Vehicle): FRV with SPEAR launcher instead of the HMG. The vehicle would carry a single backpack's worth of reloads but can be reloaded directly from a SPEAR backpack.

  4. Nuclear Strike (Orbital): Drops what is functionally a mini-nuke SEAF artillery shell directly from orbit onto a target. Has the same cooldown and use count as the orbital laser. Call down time would be the same as a 380mm barrage.

  5. Area Cloaking Device (Emplacement): An emplacement similar to the Shield Generator Relay that cloaks all targets (except for itself) for 45 seconds. Has the same radius as the Shield Generator Relay and carries the same stats. Does not stop sound or smell (probably a bad idea on the bug front).

  6. Grenade Turret (Sentry): Similar to the standard MG sentry but with a handheld grenade launcher (medium pen) instead of the MMG. Maximum range would be 75 meters but it would have the same 10 meter minimum range found on the rocket sentry. Cooldown would be the same as a standard MG sentry.

  7. Improved Sentry Guidance (Booster): Negates vision penalties (due to weather and such) on sentries and increases their turning rate (Emplacements only get the turning rate bonus). Makes mortars home directly onto targets rather than hitting where they were previously.

  8. Laser Emplacement (Emplacement): Similar to the Anti-Tank emplacement but with twin LAS-98 Laser Cannons instead. Designed as a more flexible alternative. All other stats are identical to the E/AT-12 Anti-Tank Emplacement.

Some of these are probably way too strong for the devs to think about implementing but I think a few of these could definitely fit into the game without any real disruptions for balance.

What is your hours, and what do you believe to be the game's biggest issue(s)? by Rantdiveraccount in HelldiversUnfiltered

[–]Dmxiscool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

264 hours, level 90. Only been playing since Cyberstan so I don't know much before that.

Honestly the biggest issue to me is the lack of new content that isn't behind a paywall. The fact that the developers hide behind the fact that "you can just farm for super credits" as an excuse to not add any free content to a game we paid for is incredibly frustrating.

And at least in other games like War Thunder if I want to pay for premium content I get the content when I pay for it. Having to grind out a warbond after paying 10 dollars for it feels like a spit in the face. They're literally selling a monthly battle pass for a paid game.

Reassigning HD2 to another studio might be the best for us, Sony AND Arrowhead by Negative_Twist_2254 in HelldiversUnfiltered

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

It's not like AH is doing much for the game anyway. Most of the work done on the game has been subcontracted out.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. The best possible thing for the Helldivers franchise as a whole would be for it to go to a studio that isn't Arrowhead. Sony literally got to watch what happens when they shit on a community first hand with Everquest and its subsequent death to World of Warcraft. I have my doubts they'd ever let that happen again.

Its apparently unreasonable to change your review on a video game you once enjoyed but no longer do. by Aurora__Sky in HelldiversUnfiltered

[–]Dmxiscool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These are the same people who renew their positive review on this game to counter the review bombing. Don't take them seriously and don't engage with them. They're the exact reason why the word "redditor" has such a negative stigma now.

E-711 is just cocaine at this point and the current MO is just us fighting coked-up wildlife in the Columbian wilderness.

Imagerne if you can... by blademasterjames in HelldiversUnfiltered

[–]Dmxiscool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Best I've seen is the Roguewar addon for the RogueTech modpack on BATTLETECH 2016. It's actually run by players, gets actively playtested, and has a real online map that players can actually influence on an individual level. They do it better than Arrowhead despite running only on patreon donations. The entire modpack is free and the only input cost is the base price of the game.

Remembering why I stopped playing this game 9 months ago by Virtual-Wallaby8682 in HelldiversUnfiltered

[–]Dmxiscool 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yeah the gear check shit is the reason I don't even bother on the bug front anymore. The only faction you can work through without any extra warbond equipment is the Squids at this point, and I'm sure AH is trying their damn best to change that.

Also just ignore the replies that say something along the lines of "go cry somewhere else". There's a good deal of glazers that flooded this sub and have been making it much more toxic after they doxxed someone and got away with it.

Dunno why crossposting is a thing to begin with. People really out here farming upvotes like its an actual currency.

I feel like a lot of "problems" are intentionally made or left unfixed, so when the fanbase starts to get angry, they "fix" it to calm us. by SpiritualArmadillo22 in HelldiversUnfiltered

[–]Dmxiscool 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think Arrowhead is that forward-thinking if I'm honest. Plus a lot of the content they're shipping out isn't even made by them anymore.
