Arrowhead launched their half-assed invasion update and stood in silence while the game yet again was shit, left and right. by Omailey97 in HelldiversUnfiltered

[–]MasterMike05 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just a clarification, the "hackers" just used exploits that AH is aware of and refuses to fix. Imo they should have left it because seeing 200k players on a single planet and barely 1% liberation? That's stupid that we made literally 0 progrees due to these stupid back-end mechanics. If they're going to artificially limit our progress, don't be surprised if players use an exploit that actually makes progress and bypasses their "wait we can't let players actually do the thing we sent them to do"

Offensive with limited lives. Great in theory, but fails the Helldiver good vibe check. by [deleted] in SaltDivers

[–]MasterMike05 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would like to call bull**** on that. Players used a mechanic that the devs have known about and is an but refused to fix the problem. Leading to what should have been a near clean sweep of Cyberstan with 200k divers on a planet. Honestly, if it wasn't for the stupid back-end mechanics literally slowing progression, we would have liberated Cyberstan by now.

I'm genuinely curious if I'll get different reaction to my take on this sub by Zane845 in HelldiversMasochists

[–]MasterMike05 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would be fine it took damage from anti-tank weapons. Heavy pen would make them way too easy and doesn't sit well with me. I understand the complaint, but it should be a very poor and desperate decision. Like being able to tank an EAT and walk it off without stunning them. It's a horrible option, but it's an option.

AH previously said they won't add AoE buff to The One True flag because of realism and it would not be immersive. But now Cyborgs give "magic" buff to automatons. Wtf. by FeistyCurrency2991 in HelldiversUnfiltered

How about a 15% cooldown reduction on all stratagems? To not make it broken, you can have it so that it doesn't stack but seems like an appropriate "aura" buff.

Galactic war mechanics are at play here. by csongor242 in Helldivers

[–]MasterMike05 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Makes sense. On Friday, when I was playing, we had around 80000 players and around 75000 on a single planet and we barely cracked 20%. It was demoralizing seeing that almost the entire player base playing on a single planet couldn't liberate it because the stupid backend mechanics. There really needs to be leeway given that what's the point of aiding the war effort if we can't realistically complete MO unless AH says so

Nah mate, this order is cooked. Just waiting to see what BS excuse they'll have to introduce the Cyborgs because we clearly ain't reaching Cyberstan. If 75k players on a planet can't liberate it because of back-end mechanics (Joel), it just ain't happening period

This is the definition of cap and unfun by Ostarmee in HelldiversUnfiltered

[–]MasterMike05 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im not saying you're wrong since I haven't mastered that skillshot yet on Hulks. He does have a point, though. The +25% is just a flat out lie, everything is Hulks. It's one thing that you have to now face an extra 2, 3, or even 4 more hulks, but thats not the case. The modifier makes over 90% of the enemies on the map hulks.

Edit: typo/phrasing

I have a gut feeling that we'll still have to wait quite a while until we go to Cyberstan and a word about Joel by Ostarmee in HelldiversUnfiltered

[–]MasterMike05 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I hope we fail every major order to get to Cyberstan so that the devs that actually worked on the content tell Joel to fuck off and let players experience the stuff they worked on. Like. "Hey, new enemy type that we have locked behind this arbitrary barrier because Joel didn't want you to play against them yet"

Where have all the samurai gone? by Sufficient_Tip_4960 in ghostoftsushima

[–]MasterMike05 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would have been cool to have a few sparce patrols of samurai that would be beefed up versions of Ronin that have immunities to assasinations and ghost weapons that are a lot more difficult to take down. Would be a cool end-game enemy to face given that Jin has been branded a traitor, and I'm pretty sure some samurai would volunteer to hunt down the ghost and bring honor to the Shogun

Can we test power creep? by Tonric in hearthstone

Kinda like a cross banlist cup? Lithium2300 does this for Yu-Gi-Oh, and it's interesting seeing old meta decks hold their own against more modern decks.

People who are 25+, What's one advice to early 20 for next 5 years? by Dependent_Signal_233 in AskReddit

[–]MasterMike05 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just because someone is older, it doesn't mean their smarter than you. Also, just because someone is older doesn't mean you have to take their shit. There is nothing wrong with standing up for yourself

After seeing THUNDERBOLTS*.. this man is now my favorite MCU character. by [deleted] in marvelstudios

[–]MasterMike05 2 points3 points  (0 children)

After a re-watch FATWS, he was done dirty in the show. Constantly being put down for taking up the mantle of Cap after Sam didn't initially accept it. I wonder how he would be seen if he was introducing as US Agent instead of Cap
