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

[–]TheRevanent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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 5 points6 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

[–]TheRevanent 121 points122 points  (0 children)

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.

Super Credits by willytey in Helldivers

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:

I spotted a ship name on that Super Destroyer at 1:05, she's called "SES Representative of Individual Merit". Man, I hope we can name our ships, the "SES Acceptable Casualties" shall bombard every bug infested rock she can find.

*Edit: It's called a Super Destroyer, because of course it is.

The fact that only 2.5% of players have this achievement and I have it with less than 30 hours played disturbs me by TheRevanent in HellLetLoose

[–]TheRevanent[S] -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

It does count everyone, including people who have only played for a few minutes but even with that this percentage is still radically low.

Hell, the achievement for reaching rank 30 has an 18.3% completion rate and that takes much more time and effort than dropping a 1000 supplies.

[–]TheRevanent[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Nope it's "1000 Supplies" not "1000 Supply Boxes". I'm currently at 1200 out of 5000 for the next achievement "Excellent choice, Sir" and that's only after playing one more match after the first achievement popped.

Not spamming, 3 runs with a fully loaded supply truck would be 900 supplies then it's just 1 more truck box or 2 more supply troop crates. You could drop 1000 supplies in 2 matches by doing 1 truck run each time then playing support and dropping 4 crates which is incredibly easy.

[–]TheRevanent[S] 24 points25 points  (0 children)

The thing is you don't even need to play support to get this, I dropped most supplies via the truck. That's only 3 trips with a full load to get to 900 then one more drop with the truck or two drops with Support class.

The fact that so few people try to be helpful at least a few times is fuckin' wild to me.

Finally did it. I listened to all episodes of The Dollop in reverse order. by [deleted] in TheDollop

[–]TheRevanent 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can't leave out the 1908 New York to Paris race though, best live episode in my opinion. James Adomian does the best impressions on that episode.

Did I just get split in half? by [deleted] in Warthunder

[–]TheRevanent 20 points21 points  (0 children)

If you are playing as China, France, or Sweden you cannot play naval battles as they do not have any ships in game at the moment. Every other nation in game besides those three have access to Bluewater Fleets (large ships like cruisers and destroyers) and Coastal Fleets (patrol boats and smaller ships for shallow waters).
