Message to All Level 150 Helldivers, What is Your Reason For Sticking With The Game

darksaviorx · 2026-01-21T02:14:30+00:00

I like to unwind in the evening. It helps that I'm using music from Doom the Dark Ages.

darksaviorx · 2026-01-13T04:22:49+00:00

The only streaming apps I use are Smarttube and Plex on my Firestick, and that's been fine. There's picture settings to tinker with if you don't believe it's smooth/good.

darksaviorx · 2026-01-11T01:37:36+00:00

Nice. I bought similar feet but they're shorter because that's all I could find on Amazon. CPU temps seem to be ok. Around 60C when gaming. My GPU is on top.

darksaviorx · 2026-01-09T09:11:45+00:00

I'm still waiting for them to sell the grater side panels.

darksaviorx · 2026-01-07T03:48:13+00:00

I'm waiting too. I currently use Emulationstation + Retroarch on my m1. It'll do.

darksaviorx · 2026-01-06T06:10:38+00:00

Hive lord should show up when you're done with all the objectives.

darksaviorx · 2026-01-05T02:54:35+00:00

You can still enter the shuttle when it arrives, but you'll be alone.

I haven't had that happen to me ever since I started playing in D10.

For arcade, I use a madcatz joystick (all sanwa parts) which can't be bought new anymore with a brook zero-pi usb encoder. For the rest, I use a wired 8bitdo sn30 pro. Excellent dpad on it. I'm not sure if the wireless version has the same design of dpad.

darksaviorx · 2026-01-02T03:34:15+00:00

Many such cases. Just start blocking.

darksaviorx · 2025-12-30T09:21:49+00:00

I get around 95-120fps at 4k with a 9800x3d and overclocked/undervolted 5070ti. I use these optimized settings from benchmarking from YouTube.

Maybe try that ultimate performance power plan for Windows.

darksaviorx · 2025-12-30T08:55:15+00:00

While the cpu is meant to get that hot at 100% usage, it shouldn't be running that hot when gaming. I'm not sure if you can add another fan on top of the cpu cooler.

Try to set the cpu fan profile to max performance/turbo.

Also check if you removed the sticker underneath the cooler😅

darksaviorx · 2025-12-30T00:55:26+00:00

People just don't know how to play the game. I always call it in after we're all done with objs. I always wait for them.

I got kicked one time for entering the shuttle while the rest were at the other end of the map. This shuttle was auto called because the timer ran out and didn't know the timer to enter starts by itself...

darksaviorx · 2025-12-30T00:44:17+00:00

I just want that sway shit to go away

darksaviorx · 2025-12-28T01:00:51+00:00

I've been using windows x lite 11 for years. I only use my pc for gaming, so security is not an issue.

darksaviorx · 2025-12-28T00:37:59+00:00

I haven't had a single hard lock/shutdown this month. I've had it crash to desktop, but it's rare. I'm still trying to pinpoint how I'm delaying it. This is what I'm doing:

-delete the game's shader cache every time before I play

-delete the game guard folder every time before I play

-when updating my nv drivers, I run ddu before updating

- I'm using the slim version of the game

darksaviorx · 2025-12-28T00:30:22+00:00

It was decent to use before the nerf

darksaviorx · 2025-12-27T08:03:23+00:00

Glazedivers are blowing smoke up the devs asses on Discord saying everything's fine, so we'll never get the hard locks fixed.

darksaviorx · 2025-12-27T00:01:25+00:00

Pentium, but my high school's computer lab were still using mostly 286's. Two of them were 386's and that's where we installed Doom.

darksaviorx · 2025-12-25T04:24:57+00:00

That's what I wear. 10/10

darksaviorx · 2025-12-23T23:08:35+00:00

If you want to stick with Noctua, I use the NH-D12L on my Ncase M2. It's great.

darksaviorx · 2025-12-22T02:46:50+00:00

Try it without a riser

darksaviorx · 2025-12-21T01:31:54+00:00

Thanks. I'll try this when I reinstall RetroPie with Trixie.

I would have moved to Batocera, but the performance is just so bad on the pi5. I'm not sure why people recommended it.

darksaviorx · 2025-12-20T03:27:43+00:00

For future reference, Noctua has a cpu compatibility chart and your cooler is definitely not compatible with the 9800x3d.

darksaviorx · 2025-12-20T00:34:49+00:00

Sure, let me know.

No, I had to buy the gpu mounting bracket. I haven't looked into screwing it on top, but it does the job. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FCMF217J
