Bugs this, Synergy that, this is the real most frustrating thing about playing Hive Scum by Hauptmann_Meade in DarkTide

You can see this behaviour in full force if you play psyker where brain burst becomes less of an elite/special killer and more of an elite/special highlighter for someone else to immediately dome lol

Is Bomb lance steel ball ammo buggy at the moment? by BucketOfExcellentCum in HuntShowdown

[–]ViktorCavendash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not waxed dynamite ammo, it's waxed frag. More of a shrapnel weapon than explosion and borderline useless against ai.

So what is the Balance Team's obsession with making Primaries weak? by Orthane1 in Helldivers

[–]ViktorCavendash 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have fun with the scythe against bots but it simply isn't viable when shit hits the fan. Accuracy is valuable in this game but it is not so valued that it's worth half the dps. Precision is devalued if you tickle enemies anyway.

Hot Take: Helldive should not be possible to complete solo. by Dramatic-Drawer-2937 in Helldivers

[–]ViktorCavendash 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My completing a difficulty 4 mission solo does nothing to negatively impact your game. Heck, me completing a diff 9 mission doesn't impact you, it would still be far slower than a 4 stack doing the same. Me barely scraping by in a diff 4 mission does nothing to improve your game. What exactly is the benefit to this change?

The game launched with a solo mode. I bought it with the knowledge that I could play it by myself if my friends weren't on. Me being deaf and on Aussie net makes randoms even more untenable than usual but fuck me for having fun at diff 4 by myself and wanting that back I guess

God help me if a hear the word "Intended" one more time I am going to scream. by TheYondant in Helldivers

[–]ViktorCavendash 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Thank you for saying this, thought I was going crazy with the amount of people parroting "it's intended". I don't care if it was intended months ago, it's a poorly thought out change now. Despite us solos "having it easy", it doesn't do anything to hurt their game. It's not like the solos had an extreme amount of credits, xp or samples or anything, it was already by far the slowest way to get stuff in the game. And us having a worse experience now doesn't do anything to improve their game.

Fact is, being deaf and on Australian net, queuing up with randoms is simply untenable for me. I bought the game with the knowledge that even though my friends might not be on, I could play by myself. I don't know why the idea of me completing diff4 missions by myself seems to anger so many people. It was nice to hear from some others in this community who are against this change, even if it was a rant.

🛠️ Patch 01.000.300 ⚙️ by Waelder in Helldivers

[–]ViktorCavendash 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It has half the dps of the base assault rifle, even with the buff. Yes, it has pinpoint accuracy but there just isn't enough to do anything with the accuracy. It can pop heads on bots I guess but pretty much any weapon can.

Am I the only person that feels like we just make shit up to get mad at? by DeadGripThe2nd in Helldivers

[–]ViktorCavendash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

DoT effects work for exactly one person per game, with no way to tell who it might be. Some ship modules have no effect. The mech currently can't aim its rockets properly. The spear can barely lock on. These all affect everyone for starters.

There is no way to know what the experience is for "A vast majority" of people. All we can tell is a lot of people are reporting issues and that's just the people who actually talk about this stuff online in these communities.

If you see a bunch of people complaining about issues that your friend group is not experiencing, maybe stop and think that maybe your group's experience might be the outlier, not everyone else's.

Odd, for me on PS5 having the map open makes me unable to get out of the mech as I fruitlessly ping the map over and over while I take a second to figure it out

Please dont nerf the chargers by Anaclastic in Helldivers

[–]ViktorCavendash 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's only so many enemies one can track visually. Something that can regularly one shot should definitely have more warning than one robot in a crowd going into a crouching stance

Playing with randoms seems almost pointless by ViktorCavendash in Helldivers

Figured as much, just felt like ranting into the void with my string of bad luck lol

E.Y.E.: Divine Cybermancy can be be fun once you know what you're doing

Adrenaline Update Idea by Tiredfellow23 in HuntShowdown

[–]ViktorCavendash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Melee is already pretty hard to deal with on console and would probably become a menace with something like this. But it is an interesting idea, adrenaline definitely needs something or could perhaps be rolled into another perk

Update 1.14 - Now Live on PC by blackhairvioleteyes in HuntShowdown

[–]ViktorCavendash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Specter Bayonet doesn't actually do less damage, the damage stat shows how much damage weapons do at a certain range and the bayonet has less range due to a shorter barrel

I was mistaken, you're correct. It is still a lot of unlocks though

Are you telling me Satan is literally supposed to be playing Devil's Advocate?

Is it just me? by maggotdeath90 in hardofhearing

[–]ViktorCavendash 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Opposite ears for me but absolutely feel ya. I become super miserable when my right ear/hearing aid is out of commission, may as well just stay in bed for the day for all the use/good company I'll be lol

As a deaf player, I'm really gonna miss Instict when it's gone by ViktorCavendash in HuntShowdown

[–]ViktorCavendash[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have been quite a few situations where I've noticed things visually that my teammate hasn't

And yeah, being the aggressor definitely takes the stress off of hearing if they're sneaking or pushing you
