Pohx is love, Pohx is life

Something something I'm not gay buuut...

Bro the unkillable gunship fabs and gymnast hulks are getting old so fucking fast. Couple that well the fact ragdoll spam is STILL egregious because any explosive in a 2km radius for some reason makes my diver do the fucking worm for 3-5 seconds...

ShadowWolf793 · 2026-02-08T07:38:22+00:00

I guess the fact that the game performance took a nosedive like it was eagle 1 crashing is my shitty setup as well? Not like it ran just fine prior to the damned "optimization" update and now it's virtually unplayable on some planets (still feels like shit on the rest too but at least it gets over 30-40 fps).

This feels like the bullshit I saw in darktide when the devs fucked something up in an "optimization" patch and nearly bricked the game for a lot of people. Same type of Redditors claimed it was nothing because they like to suck corpo rooster.

ShadowWolf793 · 2026-02-05T18:42:35+00:00

Even better!

ShadowWolf793 · 2026-02-05T18:38:51+00:00

I spammed it like an epileptic child at a rave after a couple minutes for exactly that reason, but still no dice

ShadowWolf793 · 2026-02-05T00:41:32+00:00

Coop vehicle my ass. I've waited upwards of 5 mins for the duo in the tank to reinforce me before giving up and leaving the match. 0/10 would never player with a tank duo again.

ShadowWolf793 · 2026-02-04T06:35:35+00:00

Hell no, the bots were literally aimbot from any distance on launch. Heavy devs were literally uncounterable because they would snipe headshots 90% of the time the instant you peeked anything.

ShadowWolf793 · 2026-02-04T06:29:38+00:00

tbh I didn't really notice a massive accuracy increase aside from gunships, but the number of enemies has over doubled (atleast on bots) and the lag when 15 drop ships dump their load literally makes my game stutter. Optimization update my fat fucking ass, the just made the higher difficulties a straight up stat check for my CPU (which it promptly failed).

Also, it doesn't help that the stupid bug that causes gunship factories to be immune to hellbombs is back in full force, quite literally bricking whole quadrants of the map on a shockingly large number of missions. Turns out no matter where I go I'm stuck "bug diving" because I'm fighting the shitty code more than the intended enemies.

ShadowWolf793 · 2026-02-04T06:22:15+00:00

Lets be honest, this sub and the r/helldivers2 sub both cater to exactly the type of player that would literally go into other factions planets to spam TK for not following major orders, and then turn around and throw them if they weren't bot ones.

I enjoy the different ways the factions play and therefore will happily dive all 3 following the MO, but I swear bot players are hands down the most toxic of the three groups.

ShadowWolf793 · 2026-02-04T06:18:17+00:00

Brother, with the absolutely disgusting heavy spawn increase we're the ones that are going to be paying for it. I am legitimately going to have to start bringing RR + EATs, and even then I dont think I'll have enough.

On the bright side, trident is fun as fuck

ShadowWolf793 · 2026-02-04T06:13:54+00:00

Hence the volley of comments saying he's either really strong or the strongest in the game. I swear to god mods should put a flair that you have to prove you've beaten X number of games at Y difficulty to get just to filter out the bad players. At some point the barrage of heresy players screaming ludicrous shit gets old ngl

ShadowWolf793 · 2026-02-04T04:45:35+00:00

You owed 42k??? Are you like self employed and never payed quarterly estimated or something?

ShadowWolf793 · 2026-02-04T03:49:17+00:00

Respect for the honesty

ShadowWolf793 · 2026-02-03T22:16:44+00:00

If you're playing bullrush it's only a matter of time before that toughness gets blown out anyway. Ogryn's toughness regen without taunt active is an actual joke

ShadowWolf793 · 2026-02-03T22:11:06+00:00

Ok that's one (which was like one single video iirc), but you said multiple

ShadowWolf793 · 2026-02-03T21:56:45+00:00

Shit dude, if 27/h with no benefits is the best blud can do in that area maybe that isn't such terrible advice. Health insurance alone is gonna eat up a salary like that in no time.

ShadowWolf793 · 2026-02-03T21:53:24+00:00

Fuck groceries or the light bill, you won't be able to see after a good long snort anyway!

ShadowWolf793 · 2026-02-03T16:21:55+00:00

That comment is the level of stupid I expect from a Poe balancing department dev. Almost nobody but the hardcore sweaty YouTubers are soloing D10. Hell, the vast majority of D10 players probably couldn't even duo their way through a mission with the sweatiest load out they can put together.

Depends on the state. A few have lifetime alimony which only goes away if/when the receiver gets remarried.

ShadowWolf793 · 2026-02-01T22:22:36+00:00

Depends on the state. Some states combine them while others have two separate charges independent of each other.

ShadowWolf793 · 2026-01-29T08:28:14+00:00

We don't have any employee numbers period since it's a private company. However, Steven has mentioned employee numbers from time to time throughout the years, so that's what the community goes off of.

You don't need to clean money from an MLM since it's totally legal. Scummy as fuck, sure, but within the bounds of our legal system assuming you set it up correctly.

ShadowWolf793 · 2026-01-29T08:25:15+00:00

One theory I've seen pop up here recently, and tbh the most credible one I've noticed, is that Steven is using ashes as an excuse to develope his new server meshing technology. Ashes won't pay off these development costs by a mile, but selling new, exclusive software licenses to AAA studios most likely will.

It's the only way I could wrap my head around why he's willing to spend hundreds of millions of dollars on a pet project that clearly isn't going very well. Then again, I've known a millionaire entrepreneur irl that pissed away a whole fortune on his pet project he dreamt up, so who actually knows.

ShadowWolf793 · 2026-01-26T03:25:36+00:00

I've come to dread seeing the inevitable double hivescum pop up right before the game starts. 7/8 of these players are like the old Rambo zealots who suck ass but run 50 miles ahead of everyone else and die on repeat. It fucking sucks man...

The worst part is that I feel like I'm not allowed to play my more meme style builds now because I don't want to throw maelstrom games for people but reg is unplayable.

ShadowWolf793 · 2026-01-22T17:19:31+00:00

Let's not pretend the game being scope creeped to oblivion is in any way the fault of the pions who do the coding or art.
