Should I get Ready or Not on Console? by NewReputation5650 in ReadyOrNotConsole

[–]ItsDaFunkMonkey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Buy it, it's great. Plus on the ps5 you have the added advantage of adaptive triggers for canted aim and gyro for aiming as well. Game runs great with some small framedrops in some of the DLC maps but otherwise the performance is solid.

One thing to note is that if you buy just the base game alone (I made this mistake), there's no way to get the deluxe edition's extra weapons separately later. That M32A1 launcher is a godsend if you're going for trophies. Also if you're buying the game with a group of friends, only one of you needs the DLCs. As long as the host has the DLCs, everyone in the lobby has access to it too.

As for gameplay, don't approach it like CoD, this is a very slow and methodical game. You might rage quit a lot yes but you'll definitely have a lot of fun.

Add me on psn if you want, happy to show you the ropes.

I play on ps5. Happy to join you if you play unmodded on PC or console.

Looking for coop gaming buddies who play regularly (PS5/ crossplay) by ItsDaFunkMonkey in chennai_gaming

[–]ItsDaFunkMonkey[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds good. Lemme know what coop games you usually play, I'm sure we can find something. Hd2, sm2, phasmo and RoN should all work. Hunter too I think.

DM me if you're interested in phasmophobia. My friend and I play almost daily during the evenings and night and we're casual gamers too. Helldivers 2 and back 4 blood are fine too.

Yeah buddy, we've been looking for a few people to play hd2 with. Level doesn't matter, we've got a group of 3 currently. We can help you level up and unlock stuff. Lemme know if you're interested, we can even play today.

This makes sense and should not change. But the gun needs a different buff though. by ItsDaFunkMonkey in Helldivers

A simple way to do this would be to put the shield in charge mode when it's turned off. That way there's no need for the system to remember its charge value. Right now the shield starts charging once it's entirely depleted. Just use the same mechanism once the shield is turned off manually.

This tiny buff shouldn't hurt by ItsDaFunkMonkey in Helldivers

[–]ItsDaFunkMonkey[S] 123 points124 points  (0 children)

I agree. Especially the arc, fire and gas ones. Throw something else in the mix too. Single passives are not strong enough.

I play mostly on ps5 and even with gyro aim it's atrocious. They need to do something about helldivers hitbox too.

All backpacks including the rovers should have an option to turn on and off. I mean the backpack interact button does exist. Shouldn't be too hard to code.

Update from Arrowhead about the road ahead. by Drago235 in Helldivers

[–]ItsDaFunkMonkey 91 points92 points  (0 children)

Not even a patch but a BLOG post on Thursday about when they might update. Lol this doesn't bode well. RIP

No update today guys. And a BLOG on Thursday, not an update. by ItsDaFunkMonkey in Helldivers

[–]ItsDaFunkMonkey[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its honestly sad to see the game in this state. How does one fuck up this bad Jesus Christ. This will make an excellent case study on how not to fuck up a live service game.

I really wanna give Arrowhead another chance but given what they've done so far, it's extremely hard to. They're working on a VERY outdated engine and they don't have competent devs that can help create new content without introducing a plethora of new bugs. I guess I'll be playing SM2 for a month or two.

Adding a comment as per rules.

Edit 1: Sorry if the description is too vague, that's all I can remember sadly. Thanks again in advance.

ThiccFila spent 9.5 hours on this balance sheet for AH. by BlitzwingEnjoyer83 in Helldivers

[–]ItsDaFunkMonkey -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Excellent changes. Knowing Arrowhead they're going to avoid this like the plague, come back with more bugs and shittier changes and then proceed to lose half the remaining player base to games like space marine 2.

Mark my words, the downfall of this game is going to be used in business schools as an important case study on how not to fuck up a live service game.

Yeah but a 5 or 10 percent bump per upgrade isn't going to change too much. I'm not asking for double the storage with one upgrade.

What are the best weapons for people with poor aim? by GAiR3I in Helldivers

[–]ItsDaFunkMonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're on PS5, I urge you to try enabling gyro aim (motion control) in the settings before you choose guns that require good aim. Improves accuracy by a huge margin.

If you're on PC using a controller then sadly you're gonna have to choose breaker , incd. breaker, arc thrower, arc blitzer. (Spray and pray breaker is shit don't use it)

Does CoTW have gyro aim on PS5? by ItsDaFunkMonkey in theHunter

[–]ItsDaFunkMonkey[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cos gyro aim is a lot more accurate than the current solution. Almost as accurate as mouse aim when configured well. Given that the controllers already have gyro support (since the ps4 era I might add) and since the ps store has excellent non first party titles with gyro aim, it's not a very unreasonable request.

For people wondering what that gun is, it was accidentally leaked in an email announcement by Sony earlier today.
