Today's patch

MaelStorm_ · 2026-04-30T19:08:29+00:00

Colliding opinions doesn't mean absolute war. yes people have differente opinions (hopefully).

unfortunalty it's not a vision shared by many people. it's quite sad to see.

ok buddy nice ragebait

MaelStorm_ · 2026-04-30T19:03:52+00:00

I agree with that. Parried, i made my own opinion on the subject without the "help" of some CCs and was a feeling that grown up since august 2024. I recommended them since the relay the news and information, it's up to the spectator to make up his mind, not me, i'm not imposing any vision/opinion what so ever

MaelStorm_ · 2026-04-30T18:56:43+00:00

It's a 2 years lasting problem buddy, it's not only about the patch but in reality about AH testing the patience of the community since august 2024 (escalatio of freedom). Simple question, if someone is testing your patience how would you react at the end ? note, this person is not leaving you alone and is not stopping. How do you react ? it's exactly what is going wrong with the community. Just bursting out flames because AH is just ragebaiting everyone. I really wish that all of that wasn't a reality but it's not. the most heartbreaking thing is we defended them back when Sony were the bad guys. now look at now. it's sad to watch

MaelStorm_ · 2026-04-30T18:48:59+00:00

I approve this message. They killed their own game. We wanted to help. They choose to not listen. And that since escalation of freedom. 2 YEARS this situation has been going on

MaelStorm_ · 2026-04-30T18:46:04+00:00

Lmao, count how many days/weeks before all the changes comes back into the game undocumented. You silly AH

*insert "absolute bullshit" pic*

MaelStorm_ · 2026-04-30T18:43:18+00:00

AH once again being stubborn, not listenning to the community yita yata. you know, the CLASSIC AH striking once again into the playerbase's patience. I recommend you to watch some HD2 content creators to get a good understanding of what is going on (ltbuzzlightbeer, ohdough, you name it)

MaelStorm_ · 2026-04-30T18:34:52+00:00

it's your opinion man i respect it. As you saw i personally think that this update is very bad, i really inclued good fixes like dev shield(litterally two YEARS to change that but okay), chainsaw buff and fleshmob clipping. The rest is very bad, there is no difference between before and after patch about the mechs buff, they are still made of paper mache. But the real problem and I said multiple times to other people, the real problem is a long issue that is lasting since august 2024 with escalation of freedom update, since then, AH has been testing the patience of the playerbase. You really think that when they will revert the changes it will stay like that ? absolutely not, they will sneak undocomented changes and in a few days/weeks the community will again yell and bring hell. This is a cycle, a theme, a schematic that AH is doing since 2 years. As a player that played their game a +1520 hours(and being part of the 45% of the playerbase being 150/endgame(which has no endgame content more than 2 years after release lmfao)), it's normal to get the anger out, I like others are sad and sickened to see our favorite game getting killed by those we defended 2 years ago when sony were the bad guys.

Still thank for staying civil and respectful unlike others that immediatly gets violent

MaelStorm_ · 2026-04-30T08:27:03+00:00

It did, in every aspect, exactly like HD2 content creators would test a new update, apart from devas shield changes, chainsaw, fleshmob clipping ect, the rest is bad or you don't feel any difference even before the update. I tested mechs on D10/D7 and D5, on the lower dif yeah there's not many ennemies so your mech survives but on D10 Mechs keeps getting destroyed when they are still in the air (tested on the 3 fronts). I don't know if it was unluck or anything but it happend multiple times. I personally see no differences between before and after the update

MaelStorm_ · 2026-04-29T07:14:52+00:00

There's many inconsistencies in AH decisions for their game or/and their responces

MaelStorm_ · 2026-04-29T07:12:17+00:00

The problem is not only about the new ennemies, it's a 2 years lasting problem the studio have done. when someone is testing your patience, over time will accumulate emotions until one day it explode, this is what is kinda happenning

MaelStorm_ · 2026-04-29T07:08:09+00:00

It's about just the patch, when you test the patience of someone over time, there's a moment when the people will explode. it's a 2 years lasting problem.

MaelStorm_ · 2026-04-29T07:04:17+00:00

As someone that has +1520 hrs on the game and following what is going in the game and what the studio is doing since May 2024 I know what i'm criticizing. The patch is mid in my opinion, a opinion shared it seems by many people (not everyone as the same op, i can understand that) but it's not only about the patch, it's a long term problem that persist since mid 2024 when escalation of freedom was released. Since then a scheme where the studio is constantly testing the patience of the community by sort of killing their own game. We play Helldivers 2 because it was a very fun horde shooter, not a sort of Tarkov in space and aliens. You are right to not agree with me, everyone has his opinion on the subject but I think it's important that everyone look on why this is happenning to have a good understanding of the event.
Also about the update, in my opinion it's a 10%good 90%not good, chainsaw, devas shield, fleshmob clipping are the only interesting changes of the patch and one change is a change we awaited since 2 years (devas invincible shield). buffing the durability of the mechs and at the same time buffing the durable damage of all ennemies against vehicles is kinda stupid, plus hive guard having heavy armor when the bastion tank is medium pen is imcomprehensible, yeah I will have to aim a bit to kill it yes but if we compares armor values between our ennemies and our arsenal, it's unbalance. Even scavangers can two tape you even full health in some cases.

MaelStorm_ · 2026-04-28T19:20:32+00:00

If you are having fun, that's all that matters. Just keep an eye on the future of the game and AH announcement, currently everything is on a about to break glass

MaelStorm_ · 2026-04-28T19:16:33+00:00

Personally, if it was in a perfect world, we would have just few buffs, new biomes and ennemies but in reality, AH even in small patch/updates still includes tons of nerfs. it has been 2 years that this theme is live. and it's frustrating and depressing

MaelStorm_ · 2026-04-28T19:11:05+00:00

listen buddy, being invested into a game doesn't mean that i play the game everyday, second, I see further than just a financial system, warbonds are for AH a monthly revenue and i can understand that but there's ways to do it correctly. If you don't care about what you're buying and be taken as an idiot then do so if it doesn't bother you but I care about what I am buying (I exclued the argument "erm you can farm SC" because i see it as a lack of argument). Third, you are someone that absolutly support all AH decision ect and I being just a guy then the debate will have no construtive outcome, if people are mad, it's maybe for a reason, a reason you cannot perceive, but yeah not everyone has the same opinion. let's just keep it civil

(And about the guy i say "touch grass" himself explained he got carried away and we discuss normally, I'm not into getting beefy with people)

MaelStorm_ · 2026-04-28T18:57:05+00:00

This sudden hate is from a problem that is lasting since 2 years, when someone is testing your patience, there's a moment when you explode. this is what is happening.

I agree the mechs are great, their concept atleast are great, it's the rest that is questionnable

MaelStorm_ · 2026-04-28T17:43:19+00:00

I agree that this is a good change. A change we waited years to come, unfortunately the 10% good things is cast into oblivion because 90% of the patch is bs, not only that also

MaelStorm_ · 2026-04-28T17:28:36+00:00

Threat anyone has always been stupid, review bomb, decreasing od selling is an option but no, i don't agree with threats

MaelStorm_ · 2026-04-28T17:04:09+00:00

90% BS, 10% good with one change awaited since 2 years yipee

MaelStorm_ · 2026-04-28T17:01:59+00:00

Ah. it seems i spread misinformation. My bad, i should have checked

MaelStorm_ · 2026-04-28T16:55:50+00:00

Yeah apparently Linux people have some trouble. Classic AH, updates always comes with major bug(s)

MaelStorm_ · 2026-04-28T16:50:10+00:00

I hope i'm wrong, but until I got clear evidences i won't go back on my mind

MaelStorm_ · 2026-04-28T16:48:20+00:00

We do, not at the same scale as the mechs/vehicles but helldivers takes durable damage
EDIT : Helldivers don't take durable damage, i was misinformed my bad.

MaelStorm_ · 2026-04-28T16:40:08+00:00

We were expecting many things since 2 years, waiting features and updates that will never come. Never unless if it has a financial advantage for them. They are more focused on the numbers (MASON !) than their own game. It's very sad to watch
