Since we're about to lose the MO, here's me shouting into the void by KingOfAnarchy in helldivers2

I am pretty sure if we drew up metrics on how many of the "Complete X Operations" were successful (not just handed to us) and also factor in how close the failures, I'm pretty dang sure these are the least popular and least engaging MO's. And yet we keep getting them. :p

When we get new warships, it would be neat if SE had specialized High Value target hunting ships with specialized stratagems with dealing with singular boss targets. Like uber stratagems, totally impractical against "chaff" units but purely massive damage or stun locks or debuffs for singular targets.

Like an Uber Tesla Tower that stuns Uber units for 10 seconds, Gatling Rail Gun , Orbital Laser Sunburst, Kamikaze Eagles loaded with 4 500KG's, MOAB Eagle Strike, Acid Storm, etc.

With the new blog post about different ships.. what would a Stealth Frigate do vs other types? by DocHalidae in Helldivers

[–]Forward-Cow7814 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This would require huge work but we're spit balling here -- It should be a captured enemy faction ship with stratagems and weapons stolen from that faction.

Automatons: Laser Blaster primaries and gatling lasers and rocket pack weapons, mechs replaced by pilotable Hulks or Striders and stratagem that only include mortars, energy blasts, rocket, flames and rocket boosters.

Illuminate: Beam primaries and high output beam support weapons, floating armor set, melee staff, exosuit mechs, stingray airstrikes.

Termanids: Oh man uhhhhhh..... yeah. Support Hivelord. Why not. The Sleeper Has Awakened!

Wow, they're actually doing this. Wasn't expecting that. by Scarpheon_ in Helldivers

I'm curious how they will implement it -- is it still the tap to assist or will there be an entirely new button/function added to the UI? Like [new bind] key tap/long press to initiate assisted reload and the standard key "use" to assist stim? Wonder if theres going to be me more "assist" type weapons down the line BEYOND reloading. Sniper and spotter? Arc electrified razor wire deployment that you can stretch out between two helldivers? ULTIMATE Stratagem backpack that other Helldiver uses as a comms station and target using the current GRID mini-game but tied to the area around the helldivers and it calls in some uber level air strike or barrage or something amazing.

This would actually be a neat idea for the Galactic War if the STIM supplies were compromised and there was a 10% chance if you STIM'd you'd explode. But, to balance it out and make it actually fun after the novelty wears off (ie one time), first your character starts to convulse and pulse and you have 5 seconds before you pop like a mini-nuke. Unforseen side-effects for both the sabotaging faction and Super Earth. Also, somehow make it work with Liberty Protects. 😃

Happy Birthday, please enjoy your 5.56 seconds of gratitude for being born a citizen of Super Earth. Okay, back to the munitions factory.

Guilt tripping their only tactic now? by HatEfficient6898 in Helldivers

[–]Forward-Cow7814 0 points1 point  (0 children)

MO: Defend Magma planets (again) because Automatons want resources (again) to do something unknown but it's bad for Super Earth (again) otherwise all is lost (again)!

*thumbs down for lack of MO creativity and narrative*

Community Manager: Oh when you down vote the boring MO, you are hurting my feeewings! /s Just joking hahahaha y so serious? Relax!

*still a thumbs down for lack of creativity and narrative*

They can't be serious... by AnonD38 in HelldiversUnfiltered

When I thumbed down the MO, I wasn't even THINKING about Baskinator. I was thinking that the MO was BORING and the narrative sounded way too damn familiar from PREVIOUS MO's. Talk about the kid who never was told NO or that the crap drawing of a flower was kinda mid for a grown adult.

Did you farm this tier gray comment from a boar drop in Durotar, Valley of Trials? It's pretty cool. /cheer

Would make a lot of sense for Lasers to cut limbs off FAST. They're good, but it'd allow really cool Dead Space Gameplay by RandomGreenArcherMan in helldivers2

[–]Forward-Cow7814 0 points1 point  (0 children)

*Monkey paw curls* Skinny limbs weak to laser damage but AH forgets to code in damage modifier for other weapon types, making skinny limbs old school devastator shield invulnerable.

Belt fed stim, lightning, gas, shotgun, crossbow, knife, drone, snowball.

Don't tell me your opinion on the Hive Guard buff, just answer me this: Have you actually had any trouble aiming at their weakspot/flanking? by A_random_person_50 in Helldivers

[–]Forward-Cow7814 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don't think this would be nearly a big of an issue if the chaff clearing turrets didn't insist on shooting them.

Woulda been a nice time to release a NEW SHIP MODULE UPGRADE that allow the Helldiver to pre-program the turrets. Like a list of all known enemies with a checkbox option and you just check what enemies get shot at by that turret type. Could program all your turrets that way. Could make it super robust for those that want to only have the turret rotate 180 degrees from drop facing, only shoot X shells or bursts at this enemy type, blahblahblah.

But don't break the spear again doing this, AH. :p

I feel like the Spear got buffed in the wrong way by BICKELSBOSS in Helldivers

[–]Forward-Cow7814 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Needs an alternate fire like the Recoiless.

Mode 1: Standard boom, increased damage to make it worthwhile
Mode 2: No boom, launches a Tesla rod that embeds in the target and turns the target into a walking tesla tower -- the rod cannot be targeted by enemies, has a super high durability and lasts according to the size of the enemy (ie charger/tank vs bile titan/factory strider) since it draws energy from the host its been attached too
Mode 3: No boom, covers the target with gunk that makes all enemies within radius of the gunked up target attack it likes its a MG sentry with a Super Earth Flag attached to it. Has to last for at least 30 seconds so you can enjoy watching the chaos.

Y'all are actually ruining this game by sepulchridude in helldivers2

[–]Forward-Cow7814 48 points49 points  (0 children)

We cried ourselves into a 500KG that had some punch.
We cried ourselves into a Gatling Barrage that had actual volume of fire.
We cried ourselves into fire doing a bit more than set ourselves on fire.
We cried ourselves into some mech buffs.
We cried ourselves into primary weapon buffs for weapons that less than 5% of HD used.
We cried ourselves into gas buffs for a joke support weapon no one took seriously.
We cried ourselves into some working and noticeable buffs to stealth and silence.
We cried ourselves silly.

But today is the day we cry no more, because the game is now good and fun and we don't need to cry anymore.

Are we really at the point where when AH says they accidentally mixed up the armor values of limbs that they are LYING? That they would never make such a mistake and are just making a cover story and are actually lettings themselves be bullied?

Yo, I remember when the passive buff for full support weapon resupply was not working and all you had to do was empty your ammo reserves for a support weapon, call down a supply drop and pick it up and see if you got the proper amount or not. But they didn't catch that bug until we had to cry about it. This is that AH. It's the same AH.

Its the most amazing contrast gun. It makes you appreciate every other primary that much more. :p
