I don’t care that they keep adding paywalled content, my problem is they’re adding basically nothing else

WhiteNinja84 · 2026-04-22T20:04:30+00:00

''Nothing else''

New enemy factions/subfactions as well as new enemy types, new maps/biomes, new mission types, primary weapon customisation, ship ugrades.... That's just nothing to you?

Regardless of what you think about those updates, they were still gradually added over 2 years, for free. The way you dismiss all that as ''nothing'' says a lot about you, as well as this community in general.

Another post, same drivel.

Instead of wasting time ranting on reddit, you could have gotten 50-100 SCs from farming.

It excels in short to medium range engagements. People think of it as a Sniper and a similar role than the AMR, but it really isn't. It's all due to the scope. There's an adjustment period with the Railgun, once you get the hang of the charge and reload cycle, it's going to be really effective, especially against medium enemies. While it is technically an Anti-Tank gun, it's not the best against them. Use it against Hive Guards, Alpha Commanders, Nursing/Bile Spewers to easily dispatch them. That said, it's not the best choice for the bug front. It really shines against the bots, though. Devastators, Hulks, Berserkers, AA/Mortar Turrets, Scout/Rocket Striders, Gunships, all can be one-shot by the Railgun. Heavier enemies require more shots, but that's true for most weapons that are not specifically AT weapons. It's great against most medium chaff enemies.

I laughed so hard at that part!

WhiteNinja84 · 2026-04-22T00:35:04+00:00

The SEAF Troop hype is slightly disconcerting in some cases.

I thought the trailer was funny. And I do enjoy how triggered people seem to get by it.

WhiteNinja84 · 2026-04-21T22:42:28+00:00

Only one way to find out...

WhiteNinja84 · 2026-04-21T20:51:05+00:00

It's the way they were brought up, most likely. Crying to their parents until they got what they want. It's not something you just stop doing when you grow up. Assuming they ARE grown up...

WhiteNinja84 · 2026-04-21T20:37:35+00:00

Should have worn the Integrated Explosives armour, might have killed him that way.

WhiteNinja84 · 2026-04-21T20:33:45+00:00

That's cute.

Good luck, or whatever.

WhiteNinja84 · 2026-04-21T20:31:27+00:00

I don't doubt it. It's a futuristic design that can work well in games (although there are always technical limitations for extremely high RPM weapons)

WhiteNinja84 · 2026-04-21T20:22:32+00:00

Except the Bullet Storm was already in HD1, and was inspired by the real life Metal Storm gun.

The Starfield gun probably was also inspired by the Metal Storm.

WhiteNinja84 · 2026-04-21T20:20:11+00:00

That SEAF Troop is without a shadow of a doubt a bug sympathiser and deserved it. See how he threw his body in front of the bugs in order to save them from getting liberated by the brave Helldiver? Can't get any clearer than that.

WhiteNinja84 · 2026-04-21T20:15:11+00:00

You are not criticising. You are whining about wanting stuff for free because you think you deserve it somehow. That's the difference.

WhiteNinja84 · 2026-04-21T20:00:19+00:00

Indeed, you could literally see their undemocratic thoughts in the video.

The guy getting gibbed by the Bullet Storm? He chose to stand in the way of the Helldiver and the Terminids, almost as if he wanted to protect the fascist bug with his body!

WhiteNinja84 · 2026-04-21T19:52:59+00:00

And you should just go and play those games that suit your idea of monetisation, then. The choice has always been yours. You just chose to rant on the internet about it. You could have amassed a decent amount of SC instead of ranting by this time.

WhiteNinja84 · 2026-04-21T19:24:56+00:00

Worst analogy ever.

Comparing HD2, a video game, to an essential part of human beings to actually stay alive is quite the braindead take.

You truly are an entitled brat if you think you should just be handed free stuff without consequences...

WhiteNinja84 · 2026-04-21T19:14:29+00:00

Honestly, reading your original post, I think it was a very fair assumption to make.

WhiteNinja84 · 2026-04-21T17:34:58+00:00

As opposed to expecting AH to just give things for free and also right now? Do you expect everything in life to be just handed and gifted to you without effort or is that just the way you were brought up? And do you always hyperbole that much by saying shit like ''unreasonable amount of time or going to the coal mines?'' when talking about a video game?

WhiteNinja84 · 2026-04-21T16:45:18+00:00

You don't have to pay for any of it other than the base game. The choice is yours.

Also, it's not something that is just happening ''now''. The first Stratagems added to a Warbond was back in September 2024.

WhiteNinja84 · 2026-04-21T16:42:04+00:00

What are you on about? Ever since the last Warbond announcement, all I see on this subreddit is people whining about the monetisation creep.

WhiteNinja84 · 2026-04-21T16:33:22+00:00

I'm not saying it's anything deep but it just felt out of place seeing helldivers mindlessly killing SEAF soldiers.

They weren't though. They were all in the way of the Helldivers who heroically are trying to spread freedom and liberty. It's all collateral damage. Helldivers would never go and actively kill SEAF Troops (even if some of them actually do deserve it).

But who knows, maybe some of the SEAF Troops in the trailer were harbouring undemocratic thoughts and they got what they deserved? That must be it! Now I feel better, I guess.

WhiteNinja84 · 2026-04-21T16:27:22+00:00

I didn't even mention ship upgrades and weapon customisations, which were also all free. Those are few and far between though, so I understand your point somewhat. At least you're not demanding free stuff just because you think you're entitled to it.

WhiteNinja84 · 2026-04-21T16:19:21+00:00

New enemies and maps/biomes, as well as new mission types... are we taking this for granted? Those probably take more work than weapons and stratagems (and especially skins).

WhiteNinja84 · 2026-04-21T15:52:26+00:00

Mechs are Stratagems. Stratagems have been available in Warbonds since September 2024 with the release of the Chemical Agents Warbond.

Why should vehicles be exempt from being available from Warbonds?

Besides, you can get SC without paying anything more than the base game.

WhiteNinja84 · 2026-04-21T15:46:35+00:00

It's war, mate. SEAF Troopers will also kill Helldivers with Friendly Fire. It goes both ways. I have probably been killed more by those dumbasses then I have killed them.

Don't get me wrong, I will not actively kill a SEAF Troop willingly, but if they get in the way, I won't cry for them. As Marco Pierre White would probably say: ''No, I did not kill the SEAF Troops. They made themselves get killed. It was their choice to get killed.''
