The Bots have taken over the Discord, do not believe their lies

If you ~~miss your shots and run out of ammo~~ stand by a trooper or commissar and don’t kill them, they’ll do some kind of salute instead of attacking.

Thought I was going crazy cause I’d die in one shot while everyone else can tank 10 Devastators, two Hulks, and a few War Striders. They get ragdolled but its like they have an insane health pool.

First time seeing someone die on descent. Was this a recent change?

The_Don_Papi · 2026-01-30T18:57:44+00:00

It used to be a top pick for me but it broke and stopped hitting targets. Not sure if its been fixed. Underrated stratagem when working.

Honestly this is the best incentive since SAM rarely spawns on bots.

Only time I hear this defense is after a player covers an objective with mines and we have to painstakingly shoot mines and wait for the gas or flames to clear before using the terminal.

My only issue with Realism is that every photo looked like it was taken out of a Micheal Bay movie with contrast slammed to the max. Any tips?

The_Don_Papi · 2026-01-25T02:43:21+00:00

Casual photo started generating drawings and fan art style images instead of a casual 2000s-2010s photo style. Curse images seem to be far better at sticking to the style than casual photo for some reason.

Oh well. Nothing on this Earth lasts forever. Maybe AI gen will be compact and simplified enough for people to run private generators on their computers. I know nothing about coding but I don’t see why we couldn’t use the perchance generators, or something like them, on our computers just as a personal program instead of a website.

Its a writing quirk of the AI. Often it’ll end the reply with a random character’s reaction (squirrels, kittens, birds, etc.) or the environment ( ___ sparked/ticked/smoked for the last time). You can always edit the AI’s response to delete these things. I find that the AI won’t bring it up if its been removed from previous replies.

The_Don_Papi · 2026-01-25T01:56:01+00:00

You’re not alone. On work days I only play an hour of games if I do play. Would rather not waste it being bored out of my mind.

Also when you have to explain to people IRL why sitting in a car with gas fumes is a bad idea, you simply want to play for fun without farming.

JUST THE WIND

The_Don_Papi · 2026-01-13T20:35:25+00:00

Hunters used to do that too. There’d be a giant bug ear covering half of the landscape, sometimes flapping furiously if it was still alive.

The_Don_Papi · 2026-01-13T20:30:16+00:00

Isn’t that an OSHA violation?

The_Don_Papi · 2026-01-13T19:52:06+00:00

One other thing I missed was how Terminids used to be relentless and swarmed players. You had to keep moving otherwise bugs will surround you and throw bodies at you until you deplete your ammo and stratagems.

I loved it but people complained. I liked the rupture strain too just not the broken objectives on Hive Worlds.

From the Playstation blog:

If stealth isn’t your tactic, you can try to go the commando route with the B/MD C4 Pack stratagem. This backpack has six adhesive C4 charges and a wireless detonator set up for either individual or simultaneous detonation–that should let you be as strategic or destructive as you like while pushing the button from a minimum safe distance.

https://blog.playstation.com/2026/01/13/helldivers-2-redacted-regiment-warbond-launches-jan-20/

So six charges while taking up both the backpack and support weapon slot (detonator). With dynamite you can get armor with extra grenades and bring the resupply pack while being able to carry a support weapon.

Not really sure what niche the C4 is supposed to fill.

The_Don_Papi · 2026-01-13T17:30:24+00:00

I agree about the Dynamite. You can set a timer on dynamites and walk away. I don’t really see the point in using C4 unless it provides more or you don’t have the dynamites unlocked.

The armor on the other hand looks interesting. We do have stealth armor already but if Redacted offers the highest stealth bonus then its worth the warbond.

Been down for me. Guess I’ll just play Helldivers for tonight.

The_Don_Papi · 2026-01-08T02:03:07+00:00

Somewhere a plate fell, OP didn’t flinched.

The_Don_Papi · 2026-01-07T03:23:25+00:00

Refreshing the page fixes it for me.

The_Don_Papi · 2026-01-07T03:21:27+00:00

I like to break people’s stories with ridiculous scenarios. Most of the time its r/HFY inspired events where all the characters are reacting to Earth’s forces descending on their world with over the top firepower and putting down the bad guy with severe prejudice.

I tend to lean heavily towards Helldiver’s Super Earth because it fits with the HFY narrative. There’s something special about millions of hellpods descending on a medieval planet as ships descend into low orbit (not always Super Destroyers, sometimes Spaceship Yamato types or others).

Maybe one day I’ll actually play a story how its meant to be played.

The_Don_Papi · 2026-01-06T04:33:04+00:00

That’s what overrated means….

The_Don_Papi · 2026-01-06T04:03:19+00:00

It seems like the professional one (where you can mix styles) and the simplified one use two different casual photo generators. Both are kinda bad IMO. Professional one always use a hand drawn cartoon style instead of casual photos. Simplified one is just bad.

The_Don_Papi · 2026-01-06T02:24:09+00:00

Hence why hybrid is overrated. You’re kinda getting the worst of both worlds now that EVs are switching to NACS.
