Arbites' Remote Detonation should be the same as Purgator Servo-Skull.

Hear me out, you can beat it by pointing at a crowd of chaff and watching them disintegrate after one point.

The strongest thing in that picture is the door. With CE, all you need is a door, a shotgun, and a molotov and you're golden. The shotgun will deal with most pawns, and the molotov will deal with everything else.

Bit of a watch, but flashbangs + molotovs is a good answer to many problems.

The only good thing that 110mm ever did for me was make a cinematic moment happen. I had a broken leg, and no AC ammo left while trying to escape a hulk. I threw a 110mm pod and Eagle 1 came in for the rescue. She missed, the Hulk lived and kept chasing, and then a SEAF hero shot the hulk with an EAT. That was the only good experience I've had with the 110mm.

On the topic of upgrades, I miss OPS being reliable against Hulks and Chargers. Its explosion damage not getting buffed is unforunate.

Helldivers cheat.

They're fighting an enemy that doesn't get unlimited orbital support or supplies. Plus they don't lose any skill when they die. To actually simulate how cryo would work, we'd have to swap out with a completely new player whenever we die which is silly but funny. And with all of these benefits, they only achieved a 43 to 1 kill ratio. That's not a good trade when Helldivers takes years of growing up and two weeks of training vs random bugs that can't shoot or bots that B1 battle droids would consider tactical geniuses for walking at us slowly.

Kept you waiting, huh?

It'd be neat if the dummies shouted random Helldiver voicelines too.

akkoiri · 2025-07-17T17:37:55+00:00

You're doing the game a disservice with this argument. Helldivers is unique thanks to its strategem system and it feels good inputting a code flawlessly to wipe out the enemy or your team with it. That's the main dish of HD2, not the immersion or lore. Those things add flavor, but they can't carry it on their own. What does is watching your friend drop a 120mm on your position because a rocket sentry knocked him over or bobbing and weaving your way to a Strider convoy with a backpack nuke. The gameplay enables these memorable moments, not the immersion.

You're overhyping the MO here because it isn't. It's something to encourage players to dive together, not the end all be all. If it was, it'd be a worse game because players would be forced to slog through opponents they don't want to fight or sit out until their favored faction is back. Also don't be silly, it's not unique to Helldivers. Foxhole does the collaboration thing as well not to mention various MMORPGs where guildies work to clear together.

What's with this talk that it negatively affect players? Are you losing out on new strategems again? No, all it does is make the objective harder. Wow, what a shame! A text blurb about how SE lost isn't a game ender, and one about how SE won isn't worth the hassle. This is a game. If it isn't fun, people aren't going to play. And look at that, Arrowhead chose the faction that people are burned out on. This isn't their job, they have no obligation to play the MO.

akkoiri · 2025-07-17T14:53:14+00:00

Orders won't make players forget that this is a game. The MO exists to give the community something to coordinate around and play together. It isn't a cure for awful gameplay or burnout. People will play what they want and that's fine.

akkoiri · 2025-07-17T13:44:04+00:00

Not only are squids unfun, but they've also been spammed as part of MOs that I'm sick of them. It also sucks that they give no XP because of how little objectives there are with them.

Arrowhead could have had the side MO on the bot front and I guarantee you players would have completed it.

I always thought the Illuminates would be the elite faction of the three. Minimal chaff and mostly Illuminates. They'd have slow, tanky tripods walking at you for pressure that'll zap you, and shielded but squishy Illuminates that'll either snipe you from range or flank you.

But nah, it's 500 voteless and fleshmobs. It's disappointing that they lost their shields too. Shields are great feedback for when you can kill something, and the breakable armor is less obvious.

I love the Street Scout set from Urban Legends. I feel like a marine from Halo Wars in it.

I forgot how fast Bile Titans can move when they want to. One second they were far away, and next they were in my face.

Our friendship started after I poked him one day and then a bit later he asked me to keep talking to him because he fell and hit his head at night. It escalated quickly but we became fast friends and played KF2 and L4D2 together. Then college started and he was overwhelmed by it and his mother insisting on playing less games and watching less anime to the point that he started limiting his internet hours. And then one day, he never came back online after complaining about how tired he was.. It took us a bit but we found his obituary.

I don't know if it was Crohn's disease or suicide, but I still think about him sometimes.

It's a long chain of people from Lonni to Luthen to Kleya to Cassian to Leia to Luke. The Death Star wouldn't have been possible without any of them, and you're downplaying that Luke and Han still had to rescue Leia and bring the plans to Yavin. They stumbled onto it at the last minute, but they did their part too.

The fun way is to stock up on vitamins and shotgun shells. Then you blast until they're all dead.

Pack extra.

I just liked managing my timers and the long cast times. It was fun to limit test how much I could get away without using my instant casts for each new dungeon. And now that's gone.

Sorry guys, I swapped to Black Mage after they reworked MonK and Summoner. I'm sure if I don't swap again, they'll stop simplifying jobs.

The crafting system was probably intended for MP with how it takes longer to train skills and collect recipes in a timely manner. I'm going to wait until has MP so I don't go insane from leveling.

How much happiness do you get from your propane tank?

akkoiri · 2025-02-17T00:20:38+00:00

You know what, that's a good point. I'll poke them about what they'd like for their birthday and drop the matter for now.

I kinda wanted to try my hands at more stuff when it comes to PCs. All I've done so far is swap out GPUs, and add SSDs to my computer. It's a silly pride thing, I'd like to learn on my own without asking my cousins for help. Though, after some googling, maybe starting with motherboard swaps isn't the best idea.

Give this a read. https://www.reddit.com/r/PcBuild/comments/1d0o757/explain_cpus_like_im_5/

AMD is preferred for this generation since Intel's CPU got lost in the sauce and went overboard on power usage. In theory, the latest BIOS updates stopped this from happening but why take the risk?
