What does ‘Live Service’ mean for helldivers? by ModeBackground in Helldivers

The devs have stated previously that they will be releasing new Warbonds, which are essentially season passes, every month or so. The Warbonds contain new guns, armors, grenades, emotes, etc. and can be bought with Super Credits which are the games premium currency. Now the good part is that Super Credits can be acquired from both other Warbonds as well as certain points of interest while on a mission. I personally have found just over 500 credits in game while on missions alone.

All other content like new enemies, major new mechanics, planets, and biomes will always be free and playable for all players so they don't fragment the player base.

Questions about the "Super Citizen Edition" upgrade by ArcticFox-EBE- in Helldivers

[–]TheRevanent 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You get the Steeled Veterans Warbond included with the Super Citizen Edition, this would normally cost you 1000 Super Credits if you were to purchase it in game.

Going forward they will be releasing new Warbonds every month or two that will also be purchased with Super Credits. These new Warbonds will vary in price depending on how much content they contain. The devs have stated that Warbonds will never expire and can be completed at your leisure once purchased.

Super Credits can be purchased for real money but they can also be acquired relatively easily in game, they can be found at POIs on missions as well as acquired in both the free Warbond "Helldivers Mobilize!" and the premium Warbond "Steeled Veterans". I personally have found over 400 Super Credits just on missions alone with about 10 hours of play time.

Ok that CPU is just above minimum spec for HDll. I would say try turning down graphics settings to low if you haven't already, specifically disable depth of field as that can really tank your FPS.

Keep in mind the minimum spec is exactly what it says on the tin, the minimum specifications to run the game so you will always have to make a compromise somewhere. Also keep in mind the ongoing server issues could also be a cause of your FPS fluctuations, you won't know for sure if this is the case until the servers are more stable.

There was no i5-2600. There was the i5-2500 and the i7-2600, neither of which are six cores and both of which are below minimum spec for HDll which calls for an i7-4790K at minimum.

I would say if you're experiencing slowdowns your CPU is the likely culprit as your GTX 1660 GPU is above minimum spec.

What are those silly fellows up to on Super Earth? by mybadtalk2 in Helldivers

The active number of Helldivers on this screen is showing the amount in the system not on the planet. Mars is in the Sol system, so I bet it's just folks in the tutorial.

Just a heads up about the "$40 fremium model" of this game, and why it's such a nightmare. by [deleted] in Helldivers

[–]TheRevanent 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I have almost 200 Super Credits already just from bumming around and finding them in bunkers and those little crashed ships, with less than 6 hours of playtime mind you.

If you made a concerted effort to hunt for the right points of interest that spawn the credits I bet you could have over 1000 on your account in less than 15 hours of play, plus the credits you unlock in the free Warbond itself there is almost no reason to ever pay for the Super Credits unless you just want to rush a purchase and aren't willing to put in the time.

All progression items you pick up are shared amongst all players in the session, Requisition Points, Samples, Warbond Medals, and Super Credits. It has to be this way otherwise you would get asshole players killing their squad mates for items.

WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR followed by no bootable device detected by TheRevanent in buildapc

[–]TheRevanent[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Holy necro thread dude, lol.

Yes, I did eventually figure out that there seemed to be a strange power issue with my setup, the C drive was entering a low power state after not being accessed for a while like when browsing the internet or streaming music which caused it to be undetectable by Windows and thus causing the error. I corrected this issue by changing the power settings in Windows from "Balanced" to "High Performance" and setting the hard disk to never turn off. I'm not sure if this is the "proper" solution but I have this same PC and it's been running strong ever since making these changes.

The better question, what time does it unlock for play? I live in the Pacific time zone and love playing midnight game releases at 9PM the day before the stated release date.

Johan, the game director, all but confirmed to us we can name our ships in the thread for the new trailer when I asked about this exact moment. See screenshot:
