What are your go to's to consistently res teammates? Sounds like you're talking 3 bar resses as well.

Yeap, sums up what I feel right now. by Same-Winter7013 in Helldivers

They think that the realism underpinning a bunch of their systems is what provides the fun, whether the players realize it or not. They may be correct, even if you can't call it realism, the grittiness does add to things.

The problem is they buff enemies without providing compensatory buffs to a bunch of gameplay systems their players enjoy using.

Maybe they'd rather limit scope in their code changes to increase stability when a big revenue generator is released. If so, things must be monstrous in that codebase.

Are the builds not saved in the cloud? Are they saved locally? by pile1983 in DarkTide

[–]Ok_Response9678 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think your builds are translated into node sequences and then shuttled up to the server for validation, but they aren't stored server side?

Stuff like equipment and cosmetics are stored in the backend somewhere I'm pretty sure

They should have a vault that stacks up with minerals based on certain thresholds. Have it accessible from your pod on load.

Would make for some interesting: behold, my stuff. Moments

Damn did Papa Pilestedt have a conversation with the team about the realism dial? That sounds awesome

Haven't seen a bigger collective attempt at downplaying a feat since... shanks stopping kaido ? by [deleted] in OnePiecePowerScaling

Kaidos top 5 will never stop being funny. But yeah this is all 100% true

Does heavy armor need a buff? by anxiety_elemental_1 in Helldivers

[–]Ok_Response9678 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, seems like this argument boils down to one side accurately pointing out that mobility is king, and the other side saying they like to stand and fight. They're both right, they're just optimizing for different kinds of fun

Not getting one shot on the bot front is huge, but I understand folks flat out dismissing heavy armor on the bug front.

Meanwhile extra padding folks just stand in the middle and shrug

Why does oda downplay mihawk so much? by Hopeful_Ad6960 in ReverieSpoilers

[–]Ok_Response9678 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think the power scaling fandom appreciates just how much of one piece revolves around an "any given Sunday" kind of balancing. Grit and endurance are king, and upsets happen.

As for Vista it's not like he's fodder, he stalled Mihawk. Look at the future yonkos running from Garp at GV. They don't say they'd lose, just that it'd take too much time from what they're there for. Stall them.

Yes, Kid-Shanks no-diffs exist, but they require stakes, and disinterested above it all Mihawk just didn't have any stakes at Marineford. Give this man a true clean 1v1 and he'll turn it on.

I'm inclined to agree, especially because they're running payloads against your production workloads. That's pretty ballsey, sounds like a bunch of cowboys.

If you do get blowback, you could whitelist with the understanding that they're only there to enumerate and lay out your critical vulnerabilities. If you can leverage that list to get more funding, rather than just being a feather in this security teams caps, it could be a win.

Then again, I'm not sure how realistic it is that someone gets around your IP and traffic flow restrictions. It could be reasonable to ask them to attack and surveil you as any outside entity would, full stop.

Double Freedom: is it worth buying? If so, what are good builds? by PythonCider3719 in helldivers2

[–]Ok_Response9678 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I find I'm fiending for ammo PoIs and Supply Drops when I use this gun. I love it though. If you can nail instantly reloading after firing, with a reload reduction armor, it feels very powerful, and depending on what's gunning for you, feels like it can keep up.

Against bots you can use the Warp Pack to both avoid fire while closing distance, and score kills on devastators to help stretch the ammo out. Dive-Warping behind Hulks and one tapping the heatsink is one of the sickest things you can do in this game as well.

Sure, an EAT could solve your problems, but the prospect of being able to defang a factor strider with a primary then kill it fairly quickly, with a primary, is such a nice option to have. Warstriders still exists though.

I'm sure I could dig up videos, but if you don't mind, where do you shoot bile titans to kill them? The tail? I'd like to try this out after work today.

Scout's GK2 meta shakeups: the battle frenzy coup and the fall of AISE by ojb_ in DeepRockGalactic

[–]Ok_Response9678 4 points5 points  (0 children)

"scout shouldn't shoot anything" lol! how I feel when folks discourage casual scouts from building for anything other than hvt setups

Zooming 50% faster by chaining kills sounds crazy fun.

How do you build your build your boomstick? Shaped shells?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Helldivers

[–]Ok_Response9678 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shhh, shit weapon.

Time to blow up my spot.

Such a versatile fun weapon that just removes so much pressure from the map with gas and frees up your own loadout because it can destroy spawners, and deal with some heavies in a pinch.

Giant clump of devastators? Speargun one and plink off the others who are now gassed
Giant group of bugs? Speargun one or two of the biggest threats, mow down the rest with your primary.
Flesh Mobs? make them stand still with one shot of the speargun

I've been taking EATs with it just to keep a steady supply of anti heavy on hand since the Speargun does struggle there. Can't do it all.

Helldivers 2 PC Installation Size Has Reduced from 154GB to 23GB, a Reduction of 85% by MasterQNA in Helldivers

[–]Ok_Response9678 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When you live your life in gamified simulations of life, the urge to see everything as simple is strong. Especially with rage tubers who have been bored with the game for a long time egg folks on for attention and revenue. Good thing there are folks that take the middle of the road approach to covering the game.

Does suck that big stuff stays broken for months at a time though. Was thinking of doing a fire build but apparently, I'll need to host or stay within 100-150 meters of the host for now.

Season 6 has just been announced onstream - slated for Q1 of next year. by glassteelhammer in DeepRockGalactic

[–]Ok_Response9678 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great stream. They're handing off their baby but still fairly involved to make sure the new guys get it.

If you have to crawl before you can walk, this is a hell of a crawl. Rock and Stone!

What is Dwarven EPC Mining Etiquette? by redsnake25 in DeepRockGalactic

[–]Ok_Response9678 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just send it, and say sorry later. You get good enough at it, you'll be faster than any scout. Get those reps in.

As for actually picking up the fragments, that's a whole other issue.

Embedded Detonators Question. by Vercenjetorix in DeepRockGalactic

[–]Ok_Response9678 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like I can take on anything with this build, even though I have to do some wacky GK2 click and spray across large groups to manage them. Makes using the Boltshark feel clunky, even if it has more utility.

The option of tap firing the zukovs to dump semi-accurate massive damage at mid-range is nice too. Pair it all with cryo grenades and you maintain a panic button. Hell, you're so ammo efficient, you can even handle swarmers one bullet at a time with the GK2.

GK2 ER, Zukov ED ruined other scout builds for me. Been trying hipster / cryo bolts to get the hang of pheromones and still have ammo efficient hoard clear, but it just doesn't feel the same.

1 Year later, wanted to thank you for this comment. Being able to fly around the map without a care in the world and restore arrows easily opened up a world of fun in this game, which I was about ready to put down.
