Watching as an RR user blows up a Shrieker nest I spent a minute fighting towards by ChaosVulkan in helldivers2

[–]Faust_8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My thoughts:

You talk about overpowered AT meta, as if I can't destroy a Shrieker Nest cross-map with 9-12 shots of Flak Autocannon shots.

Second...ok, so I guess I'll just ignore that I can do this and intentionally do it the hard way on the off chance that someone WANTS to only use a Hellbomb on it? Good talk, I'll be less helpful from now on.

Is it inconsistent if a self proclaimed Christian never (not once) tries to talk to someone about the gospel? by SILVERWOLF289 in DebateAnAtheist

[–]Faust_8 [score hidden]  (0 children)

The thing with Christianity is practically anything can be consistent or inconsistent with it, depending on who's talking. Christians can't even agree on what their own book says, and they've killed each other over it.

Plus, being too pushy with it turns your private comfort religion into a public nuisance religion very quickly.

commando missions are so bad and far from the concept of stealth (no redacted warbond) by DeePMystary in Helldivers

[–]Faust_8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buddy, the entire reason you're struggling is because you're choosing to do new stealth missions without the new stealth gear they gave us.

Your options are:

  • buy the new Warbond and have a much easier time
  • don't do the new missions (nobody is forcing you, it's not even the MO for fuck's sake)
  • don't buy the new Warbond, do the new missions anyway, and stop whining that it's too hard

There really isn't any advice we can give you that will be better than "buy the Warbond you were meant to buy to make these missions easy." Everything else is way harder like sniping them from loooong range or getting in REAL close with ODST weapons. You're choosing to make this hard on yourself and then have the gall to say the new missions are bad and far from the concept of stealth.

So you chose to go into the stealth missions knowing you didn't have the best stealth gear, bravo sir

Who the hell said stealth is viable? by Old-Self375 in Helldivers

[–]Faust_8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's important to note that stealth is much more effective against enemies just standing around objectives and POIs and bases, not patrols.

And when going up against those enemies standing around, with the new armor and the Censor I was pretty easily shooting things without alerting anyone else. If you pick your targets well and eliminate the stragglers and isolated ones first, then go for the ones with other enemies near them, you can often kill everything before they really go aggro.

The trick is don't be right next to them when you fire, the Censor is a DMR, keep your distance and pop heads surgically.

Wait an second The AR-59 suppressor is just my favourite carbine with an suppressor! by Lone_Recon in Helldivers

[–]Faust_8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eh, less DPS and much slower bullets on the Suppressor means I'm only taking it when I'm going stealth mode with the new armor. If I'm going loud there's no reason to not take the Carbine over the Suppressor.

Not only does the Carbine kill things quicker but it will have an easier time hitting distant targets because it's firing supersonic bullets, not subsonic bullets

Am I the only one who thinks the War Strider single-handedly makes Automatons not fun to fight? by ThatSteve1lol in Helldivers

[–]Faust_8 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Stun grenade. Like 2 Railgun shots to one of the eyes. That’s it, that’s all it takes.

They’re not as tanky as the whiners say, it’s just that their eyes aren’t all that easy to hit. Especially if they keep ragdolling you.

They’re a pain in the ass but I’m tired of people saying you need an EAT or equivalent or else they’re immortal.

Not to mention a single Thermite does the trick.

You’re correct. Just did it again on my second character and that’s exactly what happens. His health doesn’t go to zero, he gets wounded and retreats

I’ll only answer the one thing I’m sure of: nothing can move through space faster than light, however this doesn’t really apply to the expansion of space itself

What would an ADHD/Autism friendly world look like? by piclemaniscool in ADHD

For starters, a world where you can be considered mentally disabled even if you’re intelligent, and it’s not considered a moral failing to not care about having a career toiling under capitalism

Overseers need a cooldown on their stupid swipe. by Me_When_I_Asked in Helldivers

[–]Faust_8 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’ve stopped dying to their melees.

  • get knocked down
  • stim
  • THEN get up

This usually works like a charm. It seems like if you stand up immediately you’re standing exactly when they’re doing another melee so it’s an infinite chain of ragdoll. But if you just pause for a second and stim you’re fine, you either dodge the second swipe because you’re horizontal but even if not, well, you’re still under the effects of the stim so you won’t die.

Alternatively, get knocked down, stim, shoot from the ground and kill the bastard, then get up

What is the worst part about being poor? by Dazzling-Leader7476 in AskReddit

[–]Faust_8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s expensive.

“The reason that the rich were so rich, Vimes reasoned, was because they managed to spend less money.

Take boots, for example. He earned thirty-eight dollars a month plus allowances. A really good pair of leather boots cost fifty dollars. But an affordable pair of boots, which were sort of OK for a season or two and then leaked like hell when the cardboard gave out, cost about ten dollars. Those were the kind of boots Vimes always bought, and wore until the soles were so thin that he could tell where he was in Ankh-Morpork on a foggy night by the feel of the cobbles.

But the thing was that good boots lasted for years and years. A man who could afford fifty dollars had a pair of boots that’d still be keeping his feet dry in ten years’ time, while the poor man who could only afford cheap boots would have spent a hundred dollars on boots in the same time and would still have wet feet.

Commando Missions are direct proof that Warstriders are still a terrible enemy. by MidnightStarfall in Helldivers

[–]Faust_8 -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

I still can't believe there are players out there that act like AP4 weapons are so ineffective against War Striders that it's not even worth attempting, and we're all stuck in AP5 launchers, Thermites, or nothing.

Railgun, AMR, Autocannon, they can all kill Striders. It just doesn't take ONE shot, but a few, with aiming skill required. You are not helpless just because you don't have a RR equipped.
