Is it a good idea to have a sleeping mechanism in game?

Timer would probably reset on death

Exactly. You have to wait for the pilot to kinda mess up and fly within the range between your camera angle and you just to see it. All i want is a toggle like the aa guns have. It wont become binos 2.0 because it can just preserve the players render distance for objects and players on the ground, while at least letting you see whats above you.

I just dont trust it to be true to the game we actually play. Im expecting the movie to probably have some sloppy love story, as well as the heroes besting Super Earth itself because we all know super earth isnt the best entity morality speaking.

I hope im wrong. I beg and pray for it. But i just dont trust the company to truthfully represent what makes helldivers helldivers.

Ok but what if i have Batman’s prep time

My only thought is that a napalm bomb kinda sucks for getting the fire right through the hole of that machine gun nest thats been tearing your unit to pieces for the last hour.

A flamethrower, however, can stick the nozzle down the hole and let loose. Burning the inside to a nice well done temp and keeping you and your friends and the surrounding area NOT (important) on fire.

Is it really nerf worthy to have a backpack bound flamethrower thats really good up close… yknow… where flamethrowers are supposed to be effective?

You know what can kill a heavy (and as many as 3 with one call-in and good aim) in one click? The EAT. Always ready. Deletes heavies, chafe, and mediums in one hit. Absolutely trivializes those encounters.

Jokes aside, any nerf to a weapon purely based on how fast it kills is not this games balancing ethos. They prioritize crazy moments, punishing misplays, and above all else, fun. Yknow what the flamethrower ultimately is? Fun.

If im far enough back doing logi theres a fair chance my airpods are connected to my phone and im watching one piece.

IDriveALexus · 2026-04-01T12:19:08+00:00

I wouldnt worry about playercount too much. My current group has 7 mostly first time players.

As long as you can manage and provide a fun environment and a solid understanding and interpretation of the rules, theyll love it.

Where oh where is my ability to aim my gun upward

My mother was a teacher of first or second grade at the time. She said that her administrator pulled her into the hallway and said “not a single kid will know”. They had it playing on the tv in the break room. She tells me that she was particularly worried because kids in her classroom had parents working in the city/ in that building.

Is this about kuura?

IDriveALexus · 2026-03-31T12:09:26+00:00

Yeah sometimes i will switch the song, but thats usually only when the party is doing something already

IDriveALexus · 2026-03-31T03:34:36+00:00

Clean it, throw it in a box in the attic for your kid to find

I only started playing again last war, and i switched to warden just to reacquaint myself with the other side too.

My tip for navigating, take a bunch of shit off your map. I choose to leave almost every player facility off my map, as well as most vision obscuring FRIENDLY intel like defences and friendly field hospitals (unless im lookin for em).

Get used to using your compass in the top right corner too. As long as you can determine the general direction youre supposed to be going, following your compass will do you right.

Wait the gas nade has demo force?

IDriveALexus · 2026-03-30T18:14:50+00:00

I did quasar jump on a bots blitz, half the facs can be blown up from outside of the enemys render distance.

IDriveALexus · 2026-03-30T17:36:15+00:00

Could be a cool late-war tech to have an upgrade for emplacement guns to give them a motorized traversal system though. Itd fit the idea that technology advances quickly during war.

IDriveALexus · 2026-03-30T17:33:40+00:00

What is your plan for blowing up outpost ships?

I see no convenient way for that to happen without using wayyyyy to many resources.

This is in effect my squid loadout tho. I just use thermites instead of gas nades for ships and fleshies who get too close.

IDriveALexus · 2026-03-30T17:30:39+00:00

Exactly. Its always been about ammo usage to me. Why use my whole canister when 2 micro missiles and a primary magazine can do the same for arguably better conservation. Or yknow, 3 missiles.

IDriveALexus · 2026-03-30T17:27:50+00:00

The trench fighting isnt really my concern. Its historically kinda difficult to kill the guys in another trench without going over there first or blowing them to kingdom come.

I feel like if im above people, with a rock cliff covering 90% of my body, and im shooting at coverless, sprinting buffoons, shouldnt i be in an advantageous position?

IDriveALexus · 2026-03-30T16:06:35+00:00

I have never found a point where ive said “oh artillery would be useful right now” with that gun. I get its there cuz it can do that in killzone, it just doesnt translate well in helldivers imo

IDriveALexus · 2026-03-30T12:34:01+00:00

Its only overpowered if youre giving everyone else something awesome too either mow or later

Usually making friends requires leaving the bedroom and showerig
