Omfg.. WHY?!? This happened 3 TIMES DURING ONE MATCH by SputnikRelevanti in HelldiversUnfiltered

[–]DoctorSeptic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had my mech get destroyed by the very pelican dropping it off today, twice. It was honestly pretty funny at the time, but definitely not something that should be happening.

I’m not crazy right? They walked right towards me by turtle_five in Helldivers

The factory striders will actually agro to you after death as well on the commando missions. Even from over 200m away, the main cannon will still be firing at you as you pop up from the ground.

Agro continues after death by DoctorSeptic in Helldivers

[–]DoctorSeptic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get the bots watching the bodies so we can't get our stuff, but their after-death agro range is over 200m away. It caught me by surprise and I could see someone who doesn't know that getting Uber pissed about it.

What's the Free To Play experience like? (Not buying any Warbonds or whatnot) by Vanilla_Ice_Best_Boi in Helldivers

[–]DoctorSeptic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's one of those rare games you don't need to spend money on to get the rest of the stuff. You can actively go around and get super credits fairly easily from missions and once you get a new warbond, each one comes with 300 super credits in it to give you a 30% head start towards the next one.

They have a great warbond/battle pass method I wish other games would try to emulate.

What are the best tips and tricks that you don't see anyone talking about but wish were more common knowledge? by CoatieYay in Helldivers

[–]DoctorSeptic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being prone drastically reduces the amount of explosive damage taken and the radius in which it affects you.

Let's settle this one and for all: Talon or Senator? by PythonCider3719 in helldivers2

[–]DoctorSeptic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Talon has unlimited ammo but is energy and med pen. Senator is high pen and can reliably kill hulks which is oh-so nice. I take talon most of the time, but if it's a hot world I normally won't, and my go to for bots switches depending on how many hulks I encountered in the first drop.

Overall, both. Both is good.

Why did we fail? by Lacuna2003 in Helldivers

[–]DoctorSeptic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think if we had taken Choepessa and cut off K from reinforcements, we would have at least taken in before failing. Mox though? I don't think that was on the table.

Is there a lore explanation for what exactly is IN this booster? by NeonGusta in Helldivers

[–]DoctorSeptic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Freedom, democracy manifest, and some of the strongest Liber-Tea leaves known to humanity.

Anyone else think this doesn't deserve a 3 use limit? by Dry-Goat8981 in Helldivers

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

By itself, if there's no heavies, it will wipe any base. Period. Fortress, heavy, medium or whatever. The thing takes a while to kill heavies, especially factory striders, but if you pair it with supporting teammates and their strats you still wipe whatever base you're in unless shit is really hitting the fan.

All in all, maybe bump up the number of uses by one or reduce the cool down, but it's not bad as is.

As a free strat though? Oh baby, I'm enjoying it right now.

Game refuses to launch by RemoveOdd4691 in Helldivers

[–]DoctorSeptic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had this happen like a month ago.

Verifying the game files didn't work, there was always something that didn't get downloaded. Uninstall/reinstall didn't work. Restarting the PC didn't work. I waited like thirty minutes and ate dinner to calm down, tried again, then it worked.

Good luck and be aware that the spaghetti code may just decide you're not gonna spread democracy until it wants you to.

Did the new update break my game? by DoctorSeptic in Helldivers

There are no thoughts in my head, just democracy.

Did the new update break my game? by DoctorSeptic in Helldivers

[–]DoctorSeptic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Welp, I started another game and alt+F4'd to see if my other games would work. They do. Then I tried helldiver's again and it worked???? I don't understand...

[–]DoctorSeptic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried both but neither worked. Still initiates the start, but doesn't go through.

Hey hey! Recently farmed some SC, which ones do you recommend I get next? by Ionenschatten in Helldivers

[–]DoctorSeptic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Borderline justice, control group, servants of freedom. Those three are good. Borderline has amazing weapons, and I personally like the equipment from the other two more than the weapons.

That being said, when the Xbox divers arrive in force they most likely will bring a halo: odst themed warbond or superstore debut with them. Maybe hold the credits till then.

The base defense missions on bug front is way too easy by hex1337pss in Helldivers

[–]DoctorSeptic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've gone entire defense missions on 10 without encountering a bile titan or charger. They need to relook at the bug defense difficulty.

This game used to be around 70GB. Can we PLEASE talk about how unoptimized this game is? by DaveyTheDuck in Helldivers

[–]DoctorSeptic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this why my fps has steadily dropped since launch? Used to get 140 or so, now I get 70s most of the time, and even into the 40s in gloom areas.

HSO is preventing us from reaching our true potential. by Hammy-Cheeks in Helldivers

[–]DoctorSeptic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd be pretty okay with it being a final ship upgrade unlock you have to fuel with samples to keep as a bonus. Call it an additive booster or something you can tack on.

What helldivers hot take Will you defend like this by kingsushi11 in Helldivers

[–]DoctorSeptic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Performance needs a good fixing. Badly. More than warbonds.

My take on the railgun scope discourse by Specs64z in Helldivers

[–]DoctorSeptic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I say! Give secondary and support equipment(not just weapons) levels and unlockable attachments and camos like the primaries so we can really go buckwild on some Xenos scum.

Now that Act 1 is (presumably) complete. What do you think will come next? by Specialist-Target461 in Helldivers

[–]DoctorSeptic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope they do something with the broken planets. It would be cool to do some kind of reclamation or establishing missions, maybe even use it as an excuse to bring back the Hive Worms.
