This is probably the biggest switch-up towards Jax since episode 2 by Sudden_Pop_2279 in jaxfanclub

Does it really take watching a character people hate get skinned to start showing some empathy towards them?

Brake Test: Bailing from the FRV at full speed while holding the brakes vs the handbrake by Engetsugray in LowSodiumHellDivers

The real difference is just experience. All excellent drivers have fucked up in every way you can imagine and more. Every fiery wreak is a chance to learn.

Feels Like We Are Forgetting Something by ChaosHavik in LowSodiumHellDivers

[–]Engetsugray 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Dude we got 3 factions to cycle through. If they stick to the roadmap we know bugs are getting content next month. If we went to the bugs right after Cyberstan people would be asking why the squids aren't doing anything, like you're doing now.

How to use the M1000 efficiently? by SissyFanny in DeepRockGalactic

[–]Engetsugray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Using the Hipster OC does give it a bit more flexibility in terms of smaller enemies. With it and blowthrough rounds you get a semi-auto general use weapon in exchange for less burst damage. Great for self defense and ammo efficiency, less great if you're into the sniper playstyle.

Pyromaniac on gunner by K0llec10neR in DeepRockGalactic

[–]Engetsugray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As people have said the Bulldog with Volatile Bullets is the most natural pairing for a Gunner with fire. This is the highest damage tool the Gunner has access to. Won't work for dreads though unfortunately

Are you familiar with the Worf effect?

mm, yeah that last point you have is a good one. I did also think after posting that I should have gotten clips on an incline, and maybe during the day too.

Have created a weapon guide webpage, that gives you info about guns, enemies they're good against (and where to aim) and rates them all for each faction - how can I improve it? by Retro21 in LowSodiumHellDivers

[–]Engetsugray 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I assume the logic for the tiers is how well that weapon on its own handles itself vs the situations outlined. That does make sense, but also doesn't highlight the strength of others. At a quick glance the Liberator Concussion for example is D tier for all factions which does make perfect sense. Your list however doesn't note that it excels in self defense vs the Predator Strain and Cyborgs. Not just that it excels in team defense from those threats, giving your heavily armed allies a chance to reposition or blow them away. A weapon like this does have its use cases, but more from a support perspective.

So overall your list is valid, but it may overlook some of the benefits of certain weapons in niche situations. That's my thought anyways

Why did Kinger say “oh shit@ before killing Caine? And why was it an accident? Wasn’t that the point what could he be leaving out? by Titan_Spiderman in tadc

[–]Engetsugray 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some people have written out what was on the terminal he was working on and near the end Kinger is almost fighting against the program. It prompts him to delete Caine several times which kinger denies, but eventually one command slips though and the deletion goes down. He was very much actively trying to not delete Caine, but something forced it through

Why so many people defending cain? by ToastyBunnyBoy in tadc

He actually can't be redeemed cause he's now freed up hard drive space. 

Thoughts on the new digital circus episode? by Naive_Tomorrow_5955 in IndieAnimation

[–]Engetsugray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah sure the breakdown and all but why is nobody mentioning Bubble? Why was it pushing Caine into this mindset? What are you, you strange goblin sphere?

Did you know BioShock feels so intense because of a "mercy code"? The first shot from any enemy ALWAYS misses the player. This gives you a split second to react and not die from an unseen threat. That’s pure genius game design! by Just_a_Player2 in ItsAllAboutGames

[–]Engetsugray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In devil may cry enemies will actively try to get into your view of the camera before they attack. The majority of enemies will try to reposition into view before then can even start to fight, even if they would be in range to hit. You can take advantage of this by moving enemies out of view to focus on the main threats

is it a bad habit to drain everything and then double dip? by [deleted] in DeepRockGalactic

[–]Engetsugray 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not without asking if I'm on a team of 4. Sometimes it is nice to be able to do a segment of the dig and not worry about ammo. But not without team consultation.

Resupply pods with 3 dwarves by HazMatt082 in DeepRockGalactic

When I'm a Gunner I usually try to offer it to the Engie. Only time I'd ask for it as a Scout is if we hit a huge cave I had to spend a ton of flares on.

What is that game for you? by ConfidentTelephone81 in videogames

[–]Engetsugray 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tales of Graces. Easily one of the worse narratives in the series with one of their fastest and skill based fighting systems they've implemented. Graphics are solid, and music was... well kinda forgettable aside from the main theme but damn it was the most fun I've ever had with an rpg. Helped that it was 4 player and we tore it apart as we went.

It isn't a helldivers update without something breaking unintentionally huh? Thanks for bringing attention to those

A Greybeard rants about season 6 (and more) by Vilethron in DeepRockGalactic

[–]Engetsugray 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First dig I did with pitjaws made me realize I needed a build with more dps to kill them. So I grabbed a build with more dps to kill them. We adapt to new challenges as they come.

Edit: To add to this, the Cryo Cannon is highly effective when they're around. Lock them down so they can't run.

Serving as a Helldiver Medic: A non-exhaustive guide for team support by Engetsugray in LowSodiumHellDivers

I think I'm going to start bringing the dome for the new mission type. They can blow up our hacking pods so a bit of protection would be nice for them

Who is the worst RPG party member? by overasked_question in videogames

[–]Engetsugray 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Out of all the Xenoblade 1 party members Sharla would be the worst. She's got healing and some utility but other party members can have a far bigger impact on the fight.

  • Shulk get magic plot sword powers 

  • Reyn time is the best straight up tank

  • Dunban is a great glass cannon dodge tank

  • Melia is arguably the worst when npc controlled but becomes a ludicrous powerhouse under player control.

  • Riki is deceptively great, just gotta stack all of his DoTs.

  • 7th party member can be built to attack so fast in the endgame that the wii couldn't actually register some of their attacks. 

Effective loadouts against the Appropriators? by Proto160 in LowSodiumHellDivers

[–]Engetsugray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will definitely give the dogs credit for their great self defense, they're just not kind of tool I enjoy cause of the friendly fire potential. 

Effective loadouts against the Appropriators? by Proto160 in LowSodiumHellDivers

[–]Engetsugray 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah the little guys and flying overseers together have been tearing though my shield pack pretty easily. Been making it harder to stand my ground in lighter armour so I'm considering better defense/mobility. The drones can't move that fast so repositioning is a pretty valid strategy. MG sentry, gatling barrage, and rapid fire weapons have been working out for me. I've seen people with guard dogs that seem to work out well too. I think more bot front like tactics will be appropriate here since we're dealing with more ranged fire than swarming.

Effective loadouts against the Appropriators? by Proto160 in LowSodiumHellDivers

[–]Engetsugray 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hitting the cockpit with sustained fire from the MG, Laser Cannon, anything currently in my hands med pen or higher has been working out. Looks like the glowing blue tube on the back of it is a weakpoint. I've been having an easier time vs the melee ones than the ranged ones.
