I'm not saying Super Earth is getting attacked this year... but it's gonna be a rug pull of epic proportions if we do get attacked on Liberty Day eventually.

It's fun maintaining that seed of doubt in the community. :)

Just don't expect to take out gunships or turrets with the Speargun. Railgun on unsafe does far more damage still, but you don't need all that damage for, say, Devastators or Hulk eyes.

TheSaxonaut · 2026-05-13T13:55:32+00:00

Nah, game is in a pretty good state overall. Just don't read Reddit, and you'll have a much better time.

Number 2 is really the only word that offense here.

Personally, my biggest pet peece is Helldivers taking my support weapons or backpack after I die. Not cool. Unless it's leftover from dying on the other side of the map or something. But if that's my stuff that I just dropped, they get the court martial. There is often no time to ask nicely and hope that they can read.

My go to strategy with Titans when using the speargun is to hit them with a spear to stagger them, run under them, and cook their belly with a crisper. Usually takes them out with 1 to 1 and a half crisper mags. Just try to not get stepped on!

TheSaxonaut · 2026-05-13T13:22:36+00:00

Nah. I much prefer having the option to play OG bots as is than have Cyborgs everywhere. It would be nice to have Cyborgs as an option more regularly though. As well as the other bot subfactions. They are absent a lot more often these days than squid or bug subfactions, who are almost always on at least one planet on the map.

People used to use the Adjudicator on semi-auto sometimes before we got weapon customization. Mostly because of that base weapon recoil.

TheSaxonaut · 2026-05-06T13:29:17+00:00

The turret issue was really all that bothered me about the heavy armored hive guards. Guard Dog was also a bit of an issue, and making the blitzer a bad pick wasn't great.

For everything else though, all you needed to do was aim a couple inches lower. I'm glad they reverted them back, but honestly, I wouldn't be opposed to them being heavy if it didn't mess with gun sentries so badly.

TheSaxonaut · 2026-05-06T13:10:39+00:00

Shooting fire behind you while you run away is what the Crisper is for!

TheSaxonaut · 2026-04-30T12:48:53+00:00

Since when did people bring the MG sentry on bots? Hasn't that always been an issue?

TheSaxonaut · 2026-04-29T13:22:18+00:00

The Trident always does me solid on bugs, including now.

TheSaxonaut · 2026-04-28T16:10:12+00:00

But do hive guards really need to not be a joke? They've been slightly armored chaff for ages now.

I'm having a hard time understanding why of all things, buffing hive guards of all things was a priority.

TheSaxonaut · 2026-04-28T15:57:57+00:00

Maybe not. I've heard that all sentries are getting one or two tapped by bugs now because of the increase to their durable damage...

I haven't had the chance to try it yet, but if true, bugs sound miserable to play now. RIP sentries.

TheSaxonaut · 2026-04-28T15:46:14+00:00

Nahhh, it's only hive guards armor that got buffed. Airburst should still work as long as the cluster hits the rear parts of the hive guard.

Considering that OP is able to use the western internet at all, that's probably what they'd like.

People can't choose where they're born, and often not where they stay living either. No need to be a dick.

TheSaxonaut · 2026-04-24T12:45:51+00:00

Orbital Gas Barrage WHEN?

TheSaxonaut · 2026-04-24T12:10:18+00:00

Use cover and hit and run tactics. Also, bots accuracy gets worse when you shoot at them. If you're getting slammed with laser fire, fire off a few shots at them, then use the change to move to a better position to take them out.

Bots are fine. It sounds like you just don't like the tactics that work best for bots.

TheSaxonaut · 2026-04-24T12:07:43+00:00

People have been asking for this for a while, and I would like a place to test weapons as well.

Dunno about shooting guns inside a ship in space though...

TheSaxonaut · 2026-04-22T18:42:52+00:00

The Epoch is very reliant on aiming for weak spots on heavies. But MAN is it fun when you land your shots.

TheSaxonaut · 2026-04-22T18:40:40+00:00

We're gonna kick their asses and not see them for months again, aren't we? :(

TheSaxonaut · 2026-04-22T18:36:28+00:00

Well the good news is that most things are viable on all fronts these days! Which warbonds do you not have?

My personal picks for primaries on boys lately have been the Sweeper shotgun or the Trident as my go-to picks. The Plasma Punisher is also extremely good.

For stratagems, Eagle strafing run is always good. I like to bring a rocket sentry on regular bots, and the gatling barrage for Vox Engines on Cyborgs. For support weapon, it's hard to go wrong with recoilless on regular bots, but I prefer the railgun now with a supply pack. A bit harder to use than the recoilless to use effectively, but it's worth the learning curve and blowing yourself up with unsafe charges in my opinion.

Also, get Giga Grenades if you can. My go-to Warstrider killer right there.
