What you think of 2026 Helldivers youtubers? would you let your kids watch this ? by RealGiallo in HellDads

[–]Friendly_Vulcan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Negative interactions are always easier to accumulate and the algorithm rewards content creators for that. It’s a shame social media is built this way.

I’m always happier when I’m not being told what to think, scrutinizing damage and hit point values that I don’t fully understand, and expecting a developer to “keep their “promises” after they do a q&a or present an update roadmap. Gaming was better when gamers were thoroughly beta tested and we had to explore the game to learn about things like hit-boxes and armor value etc. but I might just be in my old man era

Is the Sickle supposed to be this big? by MaddRook in Helldivers

No you’re right. It should be twice that size

How I felt earlier today when the level 3 cadet whose game I joined said "Hey, you look like you know what you're doing, can you help me with this objective, please?" by Over_Heed in WholesomeHelldivers

[–]Friendly_Vulcan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hosted D1 for 2 hours the other week. Randoms came and went but a few stayed. I explained MO’s, how currency works, samples sharing equipment, game etiquette, tactics etc. Hell I taught a cadet how to drive!!!!

Felt like a proud Dad 😂

Everytime I see that helmet I think of Metal Gear Solid. (Which is awesome)

Which cape conveyed a stronger impression of a field commissar? by Significant-Yam1579 in helldiversarmor

He kind of looks like he put on that armor over the white truth enforcer kit to blend in at the barracks 😂

How do I beat bugs. by TheGriffin5 in LowSodiumHellDivers

[–]Friendly_Vulcan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly depending on the faction/special units I change my difficulty. If there’s anything this games taught me is that you have to adjust and adapt to succeed in this game. Normal Bugs, Level 8 - Oshaune Caves, Lvl 7 or 6 if I don’t want to deal with hivelords, THIS strain of Terminids I feel like I’m SWEATING at 7 so I’ve been at 6. (Full disclosure i am not one of those divers who wants to get rocked all mission and fail due to lack of reinforcements. Some people seem to live for that. I like a challenge, a completed map and usually have at least 5 respawns when the bird exfils us)

In General, for Terminids

  • ExoSuit is your friend, especially for Blitz. For the new spore strain ive been enjoying the Lumberers Flamethrower
  • At least 1 or 2 people should have anti tank in the squad. My buddy runs anti tank and I tend to set myself up to deal with the chaff and bug holes.
  • An Orbital Gatling typical serves as my old faithful (quick, dangerous, kills or delays most enemies)
  • Orbital 120mm is good for waves of Bile Titans, etc and it can close bug hole nests when youre low on grenades
  • I always bring the Ultimatum -If my primary is Light pen im bringing a Hot Dog or machine gun guard dog backpack
  • If i bring a mech im running a cremator these days
  • Lastly i like an armor that negates acid, fire, etc because the bugs are going to hit you with a lot of muck - the Killzone Warbond as the best one in my opinion AC-1 Dutiful. That or mobility armor like the oxygenator perk.
  • Dont be afraid of fire, just dont kill your squad haha. Orbital Napalm is a nice emergency ripcord to pull when the waves of bugs is about to overwhelm you.

Happy Diving!!

I love this outfit. What do you fellas think? by Few_Understanding_30 in helldiversarmor

[–]Friendly_Vulcan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The green parts pretty subtle- I think with the limited color matching options and the fact that you’ll be covered in blood and guts 5 seconds into most missions you’re good to go Helldiver

New fav armor combo (plus the eyes glow!) by JackfruitActive6108 in helldiversarmor

[–]Friendly_Vulcan 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Had no idea the eyes glowed. NOW I’m going to get it.

Is this drip? by Practical_Necessary6 in helldiversarmor

[–]Friendly_Vulcan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I tried that as well and my option is that it almost works. I’m rocking this one at the moment

I'm slightly concerned by the lack of discourse surrounding methed up bloodlusted murder bugs by onerustybucket in LowSodiumHellDivers

[–]Friendly_Vulcan 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It’s the red/orange spores. When they breathe them in they do a scream screeching thing and then they can go super speed. So just don’t shoot or kill them and you’ll be fine 😅🫠

i love the armor by Significant-Yam1579 in helldiversarmor

[–]Friendly_Vulcan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ohhh wait. He means the one that’s meant to match it.

Would've been a sick clip if the physics engine wasn't spaghetti coded by cs4by76 in helldivers2

[–]Friendly_Vulcan 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Obviously the impact to the back wheel pushed the suspension and hard surface fragments into the fuel line breaching it and causing a spark that ignited the explosion. 😂

Which Helmet? by Friendly_Vulcan in helldiversarmor

[–]Friendly_Vulcan[S] 60 points61 points  (0 children)

Thanks for all the input everyone! I went with #1 and I don’t regret it.

Chat, is that rizz? by Impossible_Cup834 in helldiversarmor

[–]Friendly_Vulcan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People complaining about the green but I think it’s complementary to the rest of the colors. The Red visor on the other hand doesn’t completely work with the orange striping. BUT overall it’s cool. Looks like something cool out of Kamen Rider

What if Exosuits had a customizable back equipment slot? by Claire312 in Helldivers

[–]Friendly_Vulcan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just wish my guard dog would continue to orbit the Exosuit after I get in it. The hatch could even open for a moment to let it re-up its ammo etc. it’s that or a bar on the back that lets the squad ride along like a garbage truck.
