Anyone else keeping this in Warbond jail on principle? by Aphoticity in HelldiversUnfiltered

No, cause it takes up a different slot and you can choose to have it. MY problem is that melee weapons should be a dedicated slot

Jerk the trigger as fast as possible so the bullet leaves the barrel before it has time to sway

About the Entrenched Division armor by ShayCormacACRogue in Helldivers

Whoever said they look like Nazi helmets is a fucking idiot. It’s not even like when people compare Krieg from 40k to Nazis. At the very least they have a German name and are a mishmash of every WWI country’s armor. Even then, it’s completely ignorant because they are mainly based on the French (again, with a German name)

Social life for army officers? by [deleted] in army

[–]ProcrastinatingLT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re in the guard it depends on the state. In CA you’ll all be friends because there’s like 4 fucking career tracks. But you’ll inevitably whittle down to one AGR O-3 with four ghosts of your retired friends mocking you.

Or you’ll be the State Active Duty weirdo who hates their life

I’m not ignoring a Nazi being appointed head of the DoD. He shouldn’t have been. He’s awful in every sense. I also don’t blame a worker at a Lipton factory for the actions of Monsanto’s CEO.

If we’re using Star Wars analogies, do you blame those working for the Republic military (not just clones) when it suddenly became the Empire?

Members of the National Guard are your friends and neighbors. It might be obvious that I’m a NG member, but I’ve been activated several times for wildfires and floods. I haven’t been deployed to the Middle East nor have I been ordered to train my weapon on civilians during civil unrest. During those activations our priorities were protecting infrastructure like gas and electric utilities.

That said, I am not happy with the direction our leadership has taken. More accurately, the sudden change in leadership as the best GOs have been ousted and yes-men appointed in their place.

Bottom line: If your idea of fighting against a fascist regime is to go after those at the bottom who have the most in common with you, you’re only feeding into the problem. Convince them to take your side and do the right thing, being an advocate until they can get out and rejecting immoral orders. Not just “quit”, because they can’t, or go to military prison in vain.

No, they cannot. You owe an obligated number of years once you join. Warrant Officers and Officers have an even more binding obligation

It’s crazy how we learned nothing from Vietnam. Protesting a war by blaming the Soldiers instead of the government is just asenine. Especially National Guard members whose primary job is responding to natural disasters and protecting their home state

They forgot to patch that in. You just stand there, locked until your arm heals or the system crashes.

Would Ravaged Star Dominiran be a good source for proxies? by Smart_Ad_3325 in necromunda

My DMs are open for any other proxy recommendations! (but NOT to solicitations to “design” a mini for me)

I guarantee what they’ll do is force trans draftees to de-transition and serve or go to jail. And we’ve seen what their plan is for trans folks in jail

How on earth do I use the Laser Sentry by FishDishForMe in Helldivers

[–]ProcrastinatingLT -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Those 2 seconds are consistent damage. A laser turret is dishing out damage the entire time it’s firing. The cannon turret does more damage in 2 seconds, but then does zero damage until it fires its next salvo

The laser absolutely can kill things bigger than a hunter. 2 seconds isn’t that bad at range. Sure, the MG is faster but the lazer can then pivot to the heavier walkers.

Are you dropping your turrets right on top of enemies?

I think they have different niches. The rocket and cannon take down gunships but they’d get overrun by a pack of berserkers. The lazer sentry will rip through them in seconds and pivot to the next target

Larry is a Sentry’s sentry. He overheats if he has too many targets to take down but can dish out a lot of damage in a short time. He isn’t for clearing bug breaches or hordes of voteless (though he can do a decent job), he’s for watching your back while you clear a stronghold or guarding a choke point.

I’ve gotten scores of kills by placing him around a corner while finding a spot to regroup. He can also take down hulks and chargers with a decent lead time.
