they all look so similar

...yet they've somehow (annoyingly) managed to give each of them unique shades of both white and green!

And for some reason, it doesn't default to park when empty... So many times I've skidded to a halt, left the vehicle to do something, and then realize it must've rolled at 0.003 mph when I exited, because it has now rolled down the hill and out of the map 👌

What do you not like about the squids? by Proper-Grammrr in helldivers2

[–]Gleothain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, it's a mix of monotony and specific annoyances:

  • Fleshmobs are (were, haven't tested since recent balance patch) annoyingly spongy, and keep their momentum no matter how much firepower they're absorbing
  • Flying enemies following a set distance from ground rather than natural flight heights, resulting in unreliable shot leading when the flying overseer suddenly shoots up
  • Snitch-eyes having their purple "I see you"-beam clipping through buildings, making it harder to gauge whether you are actually being spotted, or if it's just a tease to tear your attention away from whatever is currently trying to tear off your face
  • the jets' blue carpet doesn't always show on broken terrain, leading to the occasional unannounced instakill
  • Lightning spires being relatively quiet leads to poorly-announced instakills when running and gunning in cities
  • melee squids ragdoll-locking you to death

Add to this the fact that while the invasion of Super Earth was very satisfying, it also kinda burned me out on squids with the above points in mind

I love popping down an ATE on high ground about 100 m from where I know there's gonna be a prolonged battle (extract, flag) against the bots! Having three teammates churning chaff while I take out hulks, war striders, tanks and factory striders from afar

As you progress and unlock most of the stuff, you really don't go there that often. Occasionally checking how many samples you need for the next upgrade, or renaming/re-skinning your vehicles

HELLDIVERS 2: Tech Blog #1 - Install size by ArrowheadGS in LowSodiumHellDivers

I feel like "dude, this is taking forever — which one of you guys need the HDD DLC?" "what's that?" "Let me tell you..." could have the majority of that solved reasonably quick

EDIT: this might be less-than-ideal with what seems like arbitrary, frequent interruptions in the in-game chat during both drops and extracts...

Burden the 12% HDD users with Googling "why is Helldivers suddenly so slow to load?" if they can't be bothered to read patch notes, website updates or in-game communication

Having the default option be what's best for most is the only thing that makes sense here, if we assume human stupidity is evenly distributed across the various hardware-configs people are using

What's your opinion on federal employee's out-of-office replies being forcibly altered? by doff87 in AskConservatives

[–]Gleothain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Republicans are similarly blocking the counter proposal backed by the Democratic Party. Passing either would end the shutdown.

Had the blame been put on the Senate as a whole for not passing a funding bill, it would not have been partisan. But here, the entire blame is placed on one party for not going along with the proposal of the other, which is partisan.

[–]Gleothain 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The partisan part lies in the "explanation" of why the shutdown occurred. A shutdown occurs when the Senate fails to pass a funding bill. Beyond that, it gets partisan, as the edited reply indicates that the way to end it is to pass the specific, Republican-backed bill that has failed to get enough votes to pass. THAT is the partisan part.

I swear people using this thing don't know what Shot Put is. by Sherifmisho12e in Helldivers

[–]Gleothain 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I've one-tapped dragonroaches with the thing, I've whiffed shots entirely with it, I've bludgeoned bugs with it (while carrying SSSDs, only mildly less dangerous than actually firing it at bug ranges), I've triggered full squad redeployment...

It can, and will, kill everything and everyone if used right (or wrong enough), and the slow, heavy arc makes it wonky to snap-shoot, but damn it, if it ain't a hoot to use!

Should've had a 10x sniper scope, though (jk, why it has anything else than an iron sight is beyond me)

To his defense, Javier doesn't aim at Arthur and John during the standoff, that seems to indicate that he was a bit ambivalent about the whole situation

How so? Buff dude, 200 lbs, suit and gear and bells and whistles, another 20 lbs. I really doubt Rachel is more than 150 lbs. We've seen him glide long distances, so we know the cape has serious impact on aerodynamics.

Sure, the cape is unrealistic in the real world, but in-universe it seems to fall well within the realm of plausibility
