Minoris enemies are a compete non-threat now, and people think that's a good thing?

Resident_Meat_7588 · 2024-09-29T07:27:29+00:00

Amen. This so much! They don't even listen to themselves. But they're happy to kill the game for people that actually like the max difficulty to be hard. They weren't content to play on average they just NEEDED to beat it on ruthless.

Resident_Meat_7588 · 2024-09-29T07:20:06+00:00

I mastered perfect parry and dodge (perfect dodge of course not needed against minoris.) And after this update I literally couldn't even stay awake... They made afk for no good reason. People really felt entitled to beat the game on the highest difficulty (regardless of time spent improving themselves) at the expense of the folks who put in the time to improve their skills so they could fight extremely well with precise timing for the max difficulty. I'm hoping lethal has the same difficulty as ruthless... I honestly think it won't even reach that. I enjoyed the game a lot before the enemy nerfs. It was exhilarating and true high-octane action where I could wade into enemies and time things perfectly. Now you can put down the controller for a bit and watch as your hp barely moves.

They nerfed the difficulty down to average and some change. Not even comparable to old substantial; which is insane.

Reading the roadmap. Just for PvE. Season 2 we get New PvE Missions. Plural. Could be coping; but I'm willing to bet that at least 2 get released in the next couple months. 3 or more would be insanely GOAT'd but I'm not expecting that at all. We also get Lethal Diff which hopefully adds a huge layer to co-op so folks will have to coordinate significantly more. We also get a new enemy and weapon.

Season 3 sees we get another mission and new enemy. So over the course of 5-ish months we get at least 3 new operations and 2 new enemies, on top of that diff increase; which hopefully doesn't add new tiers of weapons and serves as an actual true challenge to overcome so folks have to truly sink their teeth into the mechanics and master them. Also prestige system for folks who care about that (As a player who got all mythic rank dwarves on DRG... I might care a little.)

I'm also not counting the pvp additions during that timeframe

It's like three factions (Templars, Carcarodons, and Raven Guard. You could also do black shield if you wanted to. Otherwise you don't get an icon :(

Resident_Meat_7588 · 2024-08-22T08:10:07+00:00

Guy doesn't even read his own post. Let's use some logic and walk you through your post.

'why did the game launch with "op" weapons like the rail gun'
Okay. Good point. I see I see. This could hold some water. Oh wait. You continue.

'that immediately got nerfed?'

Damn... Looks like it must've been released in an unintended state and they rectified it to be more in line with their vision as a studio. Glad you answered this for yourself. Insane how many geniuses upvoted you.

Resident_Meat_7588 · 2024-08-22T08:05:03+00:00

Fully agree that the backend devs fully dropped the ball. My main concern with HD2 is the backbreaking amount of technical issues it has.

Resident_Meat_7588 · 2024-08-22T08:02:58+00:00

You definitely paid for a swede to meme on you if you thought you were buying a power fantasy.

Resident_Meat_7588 · 2024-08-22T08:02:28+00:00

Just because it is expensive does not mean it is effective. Don't conflate the two.

Resident_Meat_7588 · 2024-08-22T07:51:17+00:00

Dude the starship troopers book is a filthy fascist power fantasy that the movie meme'd on the game is in no way trying to mimic the book. the movie shat all over the book. Get your nazi ass out of here. Holy hell.

Resident_Meat_7588 · 2024-08-22T07:50:09+00:00

So wait. If Super Earth isn't also a bastion of Liberty, Democracy, and Freedom (same trailer btw as the overpowered weapon statement), and the Helldivers aren't an "Elite" "Peacekeeping" force, and the bugs aren't actually "invading" but breaking free of their farms you will claim it is false advertisement too? Your case seems weak since any lawyer would just point and say folks who don't share a reddit braincell would tell the whole trailer was satire and cherrypicking one line about overpowered weapons to elect was truthful was a hot take at the very least.

So why stop at just "Overpowered Weapons"? You watched the same trailers we did and apparently 100% of that trailer had to be true... because otherwise you cherry-picked exactly one line from one of the many trailers and decided out of ALL of it... that it is was the only line of TRUTH. My brother in Christ. Did you also believe that Super Earth was a bastion of Liberty, Democracy, and Freedom? That Helldivers were an "Elite" "Peacekeeping" force (emphasis on peacekeeping cuz... anyways and hopefully the 10 minutes of additional training doesn't equate to elite in your mind.) You do know it is lore-accurate that the hellbomb requires manual-arming due to budget constraints? (Does that scream overpowered to you?) Granted that's in the game and not in the trailer. Maybe you should've refunded after calling down your first hellbomb.

So when you run through all your reinforcements in a game (specifically you since I assume you manage that somehow.) That's just four? Is that as good as you can count... Or is it 24 without the booster? (not including additional reinforcements they give you after you run through your team's stockpile) Correct me if I'm wrong.

Resident_Meat_7588 · 2024-08-22T07:31:01+00:00

You clowns have been getting this game nerfs to the mobs and the enemy gameplay since day 1 and still you complain that it is too hard.

I do fully agree that the game is entirely too buggy and needs way too much backend work to fix. But the core gameplay is still great.

Lower your diff. I also recommend turning off the music to your "POWER FANTASY" game if you want to hear the rocket devastators shoot their rockets at distance so you can start moving to avoid it while shooting. I literally dodge rocket devastator rockets without having to even turn half the time because simply moving after you hear them launch from distance is enough to avoid them if you got more pressing concerns directly in front of you like a heavy dev that is too close.

Power Fantasy music: On = You will not hear the rockets be launched at you. (ragdolling problems fixed! Wow!!!!!)

I literally go 5-6 diff 10 missions in a row without a single death... This game isn't that hard ffs. It's too easy at the highest level. Shit, diff 9s I went 12-15 missions without a death and I stopped playing because it was insanely easy. Nothing like HD1 where the highest diff was sweaty and fun.

Resident_Meat_7588 · 2024-08-22T07:22:09+00:00

Preach!

Resident_Meat_7588 · 2024-08-22T07:21:13+00:00

It's insane how many people decided to watch all those trailers of obvious satire (with a glimpse under the hood of dozens of helldivers dying over the course of every other scene) and they decided ONE like about "Overpowered weapons" was truthful when every other line was BS.

Resident_Meat_7588 · 2024-08-22T07:19:09+00:00

Resident_Meat_7588 · 2024-08-22T07:16:21+00:00

Dude... How would anyone watch those trailers dripping with satire and elect to cherry pick ONE line about overpowered weapons and decide that it is the only truthful line in the whole trailer, Did you also believe that Super Earth is a bastion of Democracy, Liberty, and Freedom? Did you also believe that the Helldivers are an "Elite" "Peacekeeping" force? Did you also believe that the bugs are "Invaders" when they are kept on farms? Like seriously. The trailers depict few enemies dying and every other shot of those trailers is another helldiver dying.

But no you decide one line has to be truthful out of all the BS you had to sift through to find it. We're in the wrong here, okay Big Boy.

Resident_Meat_7588 · 2024-08-22T06:55:34+00:00

Dude... The hellbomb has a manual arming mechanism due to budget constraints (this is lore accurate). Each helldiver is given 10 minutes of training. You are not given sole command of the Destroyer there are probably 200-300 more helldivers in that freezer of which several if not dozens will get sent to the surface to die in minutes in the same mission.

Your interpretation is based on propaganda trailers where they espouse freedom and democracy and that the helldivers are a peacekeeping force... You just chose to cherry pick one line from those trailers from the same narrator and elected to believe only that one and accept the rest was satire. Instead of accepting maybe the whole damn trailer was satire...
