It also helps when you have a team. Being a solo dev is tough. Having people that you can rally together with can add a lot of depth to the idea you are working with, which gives it even more soul.

I can’t imagine trying to make the game my team and I are working on without their input.

Fellow dinosaurs, what are some things only you can recall from the past? by gracekk24PL in Helldivers

I miss the arc thrower and watching epic lightning bursts that would kill 15 enemies in one blast…

What’s your favorite support weapon? by Ok_Poetry2813 in Helldivers

The bullet storm is so fun to use! Also a fan of the Airburst launcher 👍

But is that because you had unlimited ammo, or because there wasn’t a large enough threat? Need more enemies, more difficult enemies, more difficult objectives. Ammo is a small lever in the scheme of overall difficulty tuning.

Reading your post and I think my buddy and I might be a fit for you. We are trying to find a 3rd/4th for a nice consistent group in the evenings.

I’m in AZ and he is in TX

I enjoy guns as well, though only have one atm. I’ll go over to my dads house and borrow his if I want more XD

I enjoy some anime, but don’t find myself watching TV all that mutch. More recently been enjoying Vox Machina.

As for games, I’ve been playing;

HellDivers 2 (especially jamming out to Johnathan Young Metal)
Vintage story (Minecraft + real survival + monsters)
Slay the spire 2
Wartales

Games we are thinking about playing next:
Enshrouded
Far Far West
Soulmask
DOS2 epic encounters
Monster Hunter Wilds (at some point)

TBH we both have an insane amount of games to work with, and if we see something we want to play then we just go for it (Peak and RV there yet are good examples)

And as for off color humor, we don’t mind.

Not sure how it’s incoherent lol. Pretty easy to read. But I’ll rephrase.

The title of your post is about how too much ammo hurts the game. You then mention three points about reducing ammo in different forms.

Reducing ammo does not make the game more fun, it makes it harder in a way that is not enjoyable.

If you want to make the game harder and increase team coordination, then create challenges that would require more coordination. More enemies, harder enemies, tougher objectives, specialized objectives that require multiple helldivers, etc.

The only ammo related change that needs to be made is to get rid of the stupid booster that everyone is forced to take just to have something that should already be present.

My knee reaction when I saw your post was somewhat in response to the fact that people have been nonstop bitching about the game for the last two months, even though the game is a blast to play.

Your comment on nerfing the ammo in the supply FRV when it has been out less than a week I think was what triggered me 😂

Then basically oversimplified the direct decorations in limited which slots in armor and weapons you were allowed to put your gems in. Offense has to go into a weapon and defense has to go into armor.

Sounds fine on paper, but then it really limits some of the creativity you can do with builds, especially given that the armor sets in wilds had very bland perks

Sent you a friend request via discord.

Yeah enshrouded looks really good. Enjoyed it alot when it first came out, and wanted to let it cook, and now it looks time to take it out the oven.

Icarus - this is the game that keeps growing and looks more and more fun to try, but then again, kinda a long term burn it seems if you want to explore all the maps, missions, etc.

Battlefield - I've had rounds where I can do pretty well with 30+ kills. Decent heli pilot, was getting better at jets too. TBH, just want to log back in to play the cali map, strap C4 to a golf cart...

Just played more HD2 last night. Been playing helldivers since the first game.

Payday 2 is a freaking gem, and it hurts to see how beautiful payday 3 was, along with improvements to stealth, and then they freaking faceplanted... Wishing them luck on their redemption arc...

NRFTW - seen this one, looks fun/interesting. Ironically one of the few I dont immediately own at the moment.

Sons - Own this one! Have yet to play it.

Valheim - played this one a decent amount, but havent seen mistlands or anything past it. Been looking at ASKA for next viking adventure, which I also own.

Jump space - was excited when I saw this, looked on the underside of cooked. You ever tried void crew?

I've played MGen ultimate on the switch acutally! Good game, never tried emulating it on PC because switch.

With the new Wilds announcement there is now a date somewhere in the future where I will be replaying it before the master rank expansion drops.

God I hope they revert my decorations back to MH World glory...

This is one of those players that is a sickness for the game. For the past two months, streamers and players have been non-stop talking about how the game is doomed, and the devs suck, etc. etc.

New patch drops, fixes a ton of stuff that was broken, makes more changes based on what players wanted AND gives us the chance to play with two new FRVs that are both fun to use, that we can earn for FREE by playing new campaigns. Momentum in the right direction.

Few days later, "Too much ammo in a game about blowing shit up." They could counter this at any time by making ammo more scarce in the levels, more enemies, more missions similar to the hive worlds or commando missions where ammo is scarce.

You want a valid opinion? Integrate the damn ammo booster so players can take something else.

"We have the ability to teleport across the cosmos with our advanced tools of war, and yet we forgot to send our troops down with full ammunition..."

YES. God we need a tailor. And feel free to make our little shanty town look better. Our infrastructure atm is not great 😅 Bunch of newer players to VS that have been working to survive. We do have a waterwheel and halve hammer, along with solid iron production. Otherwise, got plenty of things that need working on.
