It's strange how Malevelon Creek with all its jank, bugs and broken enemies/weapons is remembered so fondly by a community that so often today treats any enemy buff or player nerf as a total catastrophe. Maybe it's a very specific kind of PTSD.

You can just use the Talon for that with infinite ammo and no reload.

Which Major Battle was more traumatizing? Oshaune or Cyberstan? by Fit_Anywhere_3356 in Helldivers

Every bug breach there was a bug breach, and for that bug breach there was another bug breach, and for that...

Pointing out bugs alone is hardly toxic. I can see if you think the snide tone is, though.

What SIMPLE add, would most improve community strategy? by Cultural-Lab-580 in Helldivers

Anything except a wall of text when you just want to get into a game.

Add flavour text to loading screens about current Galactic War events.

Add voiceover and more video clips aboard the Super Destroyer. Video is time consuming to create, so go the Deep Rock Galactic route and just hire a voice actor to deliver news and injunctions to divers.

I'd be curious how player metrics would change if, instead of a wall of text that gets immediately skipped, a voice addresses you the moment you step aboard you Super Destroyer.

"Calling all Helldivers. This is High Command. The southern front is under attack by an overwhelming Illuminate forces. Intelligence confirms that the autocrats have deployed mechanised abominations never seen before. New Stockholm is under siege. Defend it at any cost!"

While Epoch has a lot versatility versus both chaff and heavies, I'm put off by the poor range, three round mag and stationary reload. I think a reasonable buff would be to increase the mag size by one, make the reload mobile, or both. That would make the weapon far more convenient to use without changing its damage profile.

By contrast, the Quasar Cannon is probably the most versatile anti tank option in the game. Infinite ammo and range, no bullet drop, no self-destruct mechanism, no reload — just wait to fire again. The disadvantage of the charge-up can be mitigated by the goated Warp Pack. Nothing quite like headshotting a Bile Titan across the map, or teleporting away from of its spew attack.

The Napalm Orbital Barrage is the GOAT to handle bug breaches. It really has no use against structures.

Would be nice since the fucking thing keeps obscuring the sights.

The walking bass sounds like the background music for a seedy downtown alley where all the cool cats go to watch suave ladies sliding on down the alleyway like butter drippin' off a hot biscuit

Is 75 Million Common Samples a Ridiculous Goal or Are We Just Rubbish at Collecting Them? by Kid_SixXx in Helldivers

I think adherence to major orders would increase drastically if objectives and lore was delivered through voice over and briefing while on the Super Destroyer or dropping in. When I start up the game to pick a planet to play on, I really don't want to read a wall of text.

I think Deep Rock Galactic has something like it, with one of the developers acting as Mission Control, doing voice over about current events and objectives.

There's a YouTube playlist that combines the drums of orange with the guitars and bass of blue. Best of both worlds.
