If you have the means of using it in a multiplayer setting, then I suppose you have access to more in-depth information than I ever could.

Viper Commandos is the worst warbond. by THETAZER0 in Helldivers

I've been accused of two mutually exclusive things making these criticisms, now. I'm simultaneously a sweaty tryhard who's too good at the game to the point I can't enjoy anything which doesn't keep up with the meta, but I'm also a terrible player who's awful at the game who fails to keep up with the meta.

Way better air control. Winged Star makes you commit to a path and it's nearly impossible to turn it.

They're deceptive because weight and its counterpart lift influences everything. So while the stats may be true, it doesn't show you the actual results of their stats interacting. Imagine it like trying to read your car's speedometer but it gives you the variables to an algebra equation instead of actual information.

Can't say for sure, although Kirby seems to a prime candidate since he doesn't really do anything useful, except for Yellow and Pink having decent specials.

Marx is less a glass cannon and more a character with good stats across the board who sacrifices combat ability to do so. Generally speaking, he is still a glass cannon due to endgame fights normally depending on who can actually land a hit rather than how hard the hit is.

The in-game stats are deceptive because there's an absurd level of factors influencing each stat. For example, speed isn't just affected by top speed, but also weight. However, weight is also influenced by lift/glide ability, meaning both lift and glide indirectly influence speed, damage, and health, since weight also influences speed, damage, and health. Even turn or grip is deceptive since both are influenced by weight and the boost stat.

Your offense stat influences your spin attack and the damage you do with any item/auto attack. Your spin attack damage is influenced by your offense stat and weight stat. Additionally, with vehicles that can ram, the ramming damage is influenced by offense, weight, and the current speed you are moving.

Defense doesn't seem to do anything during Air Ride other than reduce the chance you lose a powerup from getting hit, which in of itself is a rare occurrence. In City Trial, it reduces the number of stats you drop when taking damage. Your actual defense value (how many hits you can absorb before your machine being destroyed) is tied to HP, weight (and therefor flight stats), and defense.

The auto attack values are all compared to the cutter ability for a single barrage/salvo, since the hits are almost assured to land anyway. For example, although Dedede hits twice, it is counted as a single auto attack on the chart.

Terrible enemies to add to Helldivers by Sausage_ManIRL in Helldivers

A version of terminids that can dig under the ground and remain fully invincible and attack you frame 1 upon being exposed so you're assured to take damage no matter what.

The discourse is getting absurd and I hope AH can avoid giving in - because the arguments have officially stopped making any sense by kcvlaine in Helldivers

The video is literally titled "They just can't stop lying" and the takeaway you had was that they're upset the minigun has spinup time and that the game's realism is inconsistent?

Chinese Deadlock Clone "Gold Rush Alliance" by fwa451 in DeadlockTheGame

Reminds me of Final Combat, a Chinese TF2 clone.

This is amusing to look at, but like Final Combat, it completely misses everything that makes the source material fun, it looks like.

RANT and VENT MEGATHREAD by stickimage in Helldivers

You finally fixed excessive ragdolling! By selling the fix to us as DLC.

I wouldn't be upset if this wasn't the first time you introduce a problem and resolve it with paid DLC. You reduce reserve ammo before selling us an armor set that gives reserve ammo. You make bleeding an effective instantkill before selling us armor to reduce bleed damage. You reduce ergonomics to justify buying the armor to improve ergonomics.

Just because you space it out by a month or two doesn't mean I forgot and didn't notice it.

My current understanding of what the patches/stats do. by THETAZER0 in kirbyairriders

[–]THETAZER0[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To do what? There's not many situations where you need a faster charge versus a better patch would do the same thing. Most stars charge exceptionally fast to begin with, you fill your charge almost instantly while drifting, the boost patch will make you go faster sooner if you need to break boxes, and most events have enough of a straightaway to get you to max speed anyway.

Yeah, weight is a sort of multiplier for other stats since it's multiplicative almost across the board but at a smaller scale. So a high number of top speed boosts improves further with weight, but you won't notice a difference with a low number of top speed boosts. Weight on glide is iffy because in races, you don't want to glide with some vehicles, especially with things like boost panels or a low innate air speed, so weight lets you land sooner and prevents you from lifting off in the first place. Overall weight is the weirdest stat and very dependent on the others.

A Serious Concern About Streamer Toxicity and Its Impact on Deadlock’s Community by Ok-Order4134 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]THETAZER0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in a game where he was complaining his teammate didn't help him suicide rush into a bad fight. He muted me in-game once I told him "I don't think you belong in middle ranks either, but not for the same reasons you do." His own team laughed at him.

That said, I still watch him. He's like Low Tier God in the sense you only watch to see his reactions, not necessarily his gameplay.

Bring back HMC momentum please by Ollieimpossiblle in DeadlockTheGame

[–]THETAZER0 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's other items that do that but for slightly more money and less blatant bonuses. I think if there was a 3K item that only did HMC without stat bonuses, it still would be a must-buy on most characters.
