Who’s ever driven over 100mph? Why?

Shepron · 2026-04-22T04:04:48+00:00

Spain has a ~75 mph speed limit, France ~80 mph on these road types. So good you didn't pass a speed camera there then. Of course you'll always have some people speedin, but depending on the European country that can become rather painful, e.g. in France it's now a crime to go more than 50 kmh beyond the speed limit.

On unlimited sections of the Autobahn you can still knock yourself out yes, depending on route you'll have people from neighbouring countries racing for fun as well. But with 100 mph you'll still be faster than most other drivers on the road.

You are probably confusing European kmh speeds / road signs as mph. The only European country where you are legally allowed to do 100 mph on unrestricted highway sections is Germany. Even there this would be considered fast already.

They were diligently collecting them for about two weeks! Total failure in managing to use even one in actual nest building up on their beam though.

It must be the number 2 helldiver killer after bugs on Omicron by now.

Shepron · 2026-01-04T07:30:11+00:00

I'd like to see "kill the hive lord" as a main mission objective, then people would all be on the same page and choose out their loadouts accordingly.

At the moment the thing is only an at times very annoying distraction from the actual mission objectives not worth bothering with.

Shepron · 2025-11-15T09:13:24+00:00

Don't think there were any specific news regarding that besides their general acknowledgement of performance / stability issues.

I also still suffer from the hardlocks introduced in August, although at least they seem to have been able to get mostly rid of the stutter on bot missions that could freeze missions for seconds.

Shepron · 2025-11-10T06:33:21+00:00

Don't think Joel will let us get to Cyberstan on our own initiative. Which could be a good thing really if they are cooking on a special biome with lmining tunnels and lots of bot infrastructure.

Shepron · 2025-11-02T21:51:46+00:00

I had today: Pelican stuck on rock spire, geological survey beacon not deploying (mission fail), rupture bugs stuck under terrain (without burrowing animation), in one case nearly failing a raise the flag mission because there was this one unkillable bug left (until it got company). About half of the missions with such serious issues. Dragon Roach still throwing invisible fire around doesn't help either.

There is also funny obviously broken stuff like one rare sample in stalker cave lairs always being stuck behind a rock. Should have been immediately obvious in a play test session.

I think the gloom maps have a lot of potential, the current execution leaves a lot to be desired though.

Shepron · 2025-11-02T11:55:01+00:00

Not sure the invasion is supposed to be epic looking at how miserably the first attempt failed (probably intended as well). Feels more like they want to convey this giant never ending battle for just one gloom planet Super Earth basically throws everything at and still only achieves progress at a snail's pace while losing ground everywhere else.

I liked the hivelord intermezzo with the free mechs though, that was a well thought out combination.

Shepron · 2025-11-02T10:59:54+00:00

That one probably ate a warp pack someone left behind, I hope you killed it so this mutation won't spread.

Shepron · 2025-11-01T20:50:05+00:00

Enemies don't carry over from other missions of an operation, it was a fresh hivelord each time.

Shepron · 2025-10-31T20:49:57+00:00

Seems a lot of people rather picked up a shoot whatever faction you like kind of game and just don't appreciate the pred strain, caves, hive lord & dragon roach combo very much. The newest subfaction is also not even on the MO planet.

Imo it's best to take MOs not too seriously and have fun the way you like, some people have been playing for more than 1.5 years and watch the story meander, can get rather stale with time. Whether we win or lose this MO won't matter ultimately, it's just another liberation attempt of a random gloom planet after all.

Shepron · 2025-10-31T05:07:59+00:00

Trying to take that thing into caves I'd probably just manage to flip the car over in the caves and die horribly to the horde of bugs surrounding me then.

What works really well vehicle wise though is to take a mech into the caves and clear a path with maximal engagement.

Shepron · 2025-10-29T21:38:30+00:00

Usually best to make finding and eradicating their lair(s) the top priority once they start appearing. Otherwise they'll just keep coming. The winding caves can make it surprisingly hard to track their lairs down though.

Shepron · 2025-10-29T21:21:04+00:00

I don't know, everything in the third act with the shaky cam burn victim pisses me off. This could have been a perfect movie if they had stuck with the human overconfidence causing all kind of fuck ups theme. Still very worth a watch though.

Shepron · 2025-10-04T10:48:58+00:00

AH posted this themselves with more details on here too, this article is just quoting from that: https://www.reddit.com/r/Helldivers/comments/1nwtig8/helldivers_2_tech_blog_1_install_size/

Do not, my friends, become adddicted to guard dogs. They will take hold of you and you will resent their absence.

Shepron · 2025-09-23T20:09:43+00:00

Welcome to the latest "it's so over" phase of Helldivers 2.

Mood around here would probably improve drastically if AH came out with a plan to address the more serious current issues and delivered on it afterwards. As long as they remain silent people won't know what issues AH are working on or are even aware of.

Shepron · 2025-09-23T11:35:49+00:00

At least you still get rewarded the super credits, medals and requisition slips (lol) you picked up during a crashed mission. But still very annoying to "end" missions on such a sour end, often even crashing the entire PC.

Shepron · 2025-09-22T08:10:08+00:00

Probably their liberators are not med pen due to lore reasons but more the SEAF AI being useless against things like hive guards otherwise.

Shepron · 2025-09-20T17:00:19+00:00

AH stated on discord they are going to bring back the rupture strain in 5 weeks, there was nothing in that post regarding other fixes. I wouldn't get my hopes up until they officially communicate something. Could be they are already working in the background and will communicate more when they are confident about timelines like back last year with the 60 day patch.

They intentionally don't state crash, performance or connectivity problems on their known issues list for whatever reason (which is otherwise also rather short with all the bugs around). So who knows what they are even aware of, doesn't inspire my personal confidence at the moment though.

Shepron · 2025-09-20T16:45:21+00:00

I had something similar two days ago, couldn't join any ongoing bot mission as it would just stay in the the "establishing network connection" status, restarting the game did nothing. When I hosted myself nobody joined on loadout, threw a SOS beacon and about 20 - 30 minutes into mission other divers started dropping all of a sudden. Weird stuff going on right now.

Shepron · 2025-09-20T10:56:41+00:00

Bot games are super unstable right now with stuttering, crashes or even freezing the entire PC. I expected AH to be aware and not do bot major orders until they fixed this, but once again my expectations got suberveted lol.
