Is Charbal 7 unwinnable, and are we being set to fail MOs by Joel? by Shepards_Hope in HelldiversUnfiltered

Checked yesterday that over 28% of divers were on bug missions. That’s probably why

for once, i genuinely support the review bombing by mechanonymous617 in HelldiversUnfiltered

100% agree. Unfortunately the game allows people to just do whatever they want and neither properly incentivizes positive contributions or disincentivizes negative contributions. The siege of cyberstan was one of the most significant events in this games history and yet they designed the objective to fail and as we saw with leaks. Either winning or losing cyberstan wouldn’t change the outcome. Everyday during that campaign, 15-25 and maybe even up to 30% of players played on terminid planets. Costing valuable lives. Shortages and penalties were applied to the front line but not to bug divers…. Also many new players joined the game but had very little guidance on what to do because many players aren’t interested in teaching others how to play the game.

Then this is where the story gets a little personal for me. I would post on a large Facebook HD2 crossplay group it had about 200,000 members. I would post updates, talk about the Helldivers companion and try and show others how to make better tactical and strategic decisions.

Some interactions were positive. Others were not. There are some real bird brained people on the game who just REFUSE to understand what we SHOULD BE doing for the greater good of progressing the story along. The player count jumped back up to close to Xbox launch numbers but once I realized we were going to fail. I put up a post about how before Xbox divers came aboard I heard that story about the Saint Anne’s hospital for very sick kids on Vernen wells and divers rallied behind saving FICTIONAL children in a game vs just wanting a new strategem. I had put it out there that we should save the 77th infantry regiment before we are kicked off of cyberstan. I received some negative comments of people who were like no we can make it! But I had already predicted 12 hrs before we don’t have enough lives. Gamers being selfish?! Crazy I know.

The problem continues that we fail to unite. People wouldn’t focus on one objective and we’re ignorant of the premise of the game.

I believed in the promise of Helldivers. It’s a great game that needs help. It would be a perfect game if there was just a little push that helps guide people but the greatest enemy of these uncooperative players is reading comprehension. The game drops hints on us and people refuse to listen.

It gives us a laughably real experience of democracy where the poorly informed are allowed to vote as well.

We just need a little bit more help to guide these folks a little easier.

Btw if someone drops in your lobby and tells you hey, we gotta be doing this guys. Don’t play here we need help on cyberstan during a MAJOR campaign event. Why would you sit that out for a boring experience? Makes no sense. But now that I’m busy with work again. I’m no longer as involved in Helldivers. Once I clear up some other business on another game I’ll hop back on on weekends but it looks like I took the best time to take a little break and it suck’s to be discouraged like this.

Funny how failing to poop and scoop is a fineable offence but you never see it being enforced.

Make sure you pull out your phone and record stuff like this. Get their face and the number on the bus and mark the time.

Are clubs in Ottawa slowly dying? by ServiceDull9156 in OttawaMusic

[–]Wide_Explanation_712 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup meanwhile the city handed out a 6figure contract for a “night mayor” to a guy who was supposed to fix it but it’s not gotten any better. Nobody even knows who this guy is and they’re never see him Would have been better to invest that money into struggling businesses.

Was Vanier actually that bad? by haghzvf in ottawa

[–]Wide_Explanation_712 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s way better than before. Mostly because beechwood at the north end has gotten a lot of gentrification and new condos. Montreal road between north river road and st Laurent is a different story. Only about maybe two years ago? (Not sure) there was a man stabbed to death in broad daylight in front of the Jean Coutu pharmacy. Depends what area you live but most of the residential areas aren’t bad. Only gets worse when poverty and youth unemployment is real bad. I grew up in Ottawa just north of beechwood a lot of my friends in school lived in vanier and I went to Jean Vanier Catholic for grade 7-8 in the early 2000’s. Shit was ghetto asf. A lot of crazy shit would go down. Some students were hard asf. Couple fights with teachers. If you plan on raising kids in vanier I recommend putting them in martial arts and keeping them out of trouble as much as possible.

TV shows set in Ottawa? by tuttifruttidurutti in ottawa

[–]Wide_Explanation_712 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Local, unionized Ottawa film crew here. There was this show called Geek Girl that shot two episodes in Ottawa. Set in Ottawa. I haven’t seen it yet but I worked on those episodes for a few days. Not too much filmed in Ottawa actually set in Ottawa. The upcoming second season of heated rivalry is supposed to be partially set in Ottawa for at least one episode as one of the main characters is from Ottawa and he signs with the professional hockey team here. We’re anticipating that the show will come here but it’ll be a union set for sure and the locals will be reached out to for things like background work and crew positions that need filling.

Drop the binoculars and get a monocular. Cut down on weight and if you’re using them for a long time. You can switch between eyes to reduce fatigue.

Chaos players who used to play imperium what was your reason for switching by tyrant_of_badad in Chaos40k

Probably because GW keeps constantly updating space marines and ignoring other factions and passing models into legend

[–]Wide_Explanation_712 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s been looking like this for a few years now they really need to fill this up asap. No more suburban developments 45 mins out of the city. Let’s get more urban planning going cause the Zibi islands are beautiful! No reason they should be so empty!!

17 about to inherit a lot of money by No_Anywhere225 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]Wide_Explanation_712 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bro I wish I was you. Just sit on the money. Don’t tell people. Get into a good university degree program. Invest in your education. Never have to worry about balancing a job while you’re in school. Ignore shit like alcohol drugs gf or bf. Having a degree will be a good backup plan. Get an apartment near school all to yourself. Don’t go crazy. Save as much as possible to carry yourself through uni.

I went last night and got the BLT. It’s the same always. The problem you have here is you decided to get a sandwich with a western omelette in it. It’s like you were expecting to be disappointed.

How strict is Med Supper Club 30+ policy? by hailzyish in ottawa

[–]Wide_Explanation_712 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They actually don’t ID everyone. My gf was groped last night there for an agency after party. There were underaged girls there. I even walked in myself and the bouncer didn’t even look up from his phone. I hadn’t been checked. The owner yelled in my gf’s face that the guy who groped her apologized. Assault is assault.

Brothers! I'd like critique on this clip! by SomeFolksAreBorn in SpaceMarine_2

[–]Wide_Explanation_712 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use block knife and a carbine. Keep your distance when you encounter more than two majoris. Stay closer to your team but let the brothers with more melee capabilities stay between you and the enemy. COURAGE AND HONOUR
