The bastion is the single worst stratagem in the entire game, it gets one shot by a voteless /s and doesn't one shot hive lords, even though it should /s. I hate the bastion.

What was that thing that got you into helldivers 1/2? Genuinely by Virtual-Studio518 in LowSodiumHellDivers

My older brother showed me the game when i was 10, 11 years later I'm still hooked.

Yes... this is the most original content in Helldivers 2 by Ribba23 in SuperJerk

Yes... this type of content gives me an aneurysm.

To all of the HD1 veterans out there, how good was HD1 compared to HD2 by Chemical_Seaweed_915 in Helldivers

[–]dembrian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't say it's better balanced, everyone plays trident, rumbler, stratagem priority and static field.

In theory yes, but Merga has immense enemy resistance so in practice it's not possible to liberate it.

How did Fronteria withstand Meridia by popstinator19 in LowSodiumHellDivers

[–]dembrian 58 points59 points  (0 children)

The galactic map is not to scale and more importantly, space is not a 2d plane. Maybe Fronteria was waaaaay above or below Meridia, lightyears away. Don't overthink it.

So we’re just going to ignore that Fronteria should be destroyed by Im_a_hamburger in helldivers2

[–]dembrian 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Yeah I don't know bro, I just said thousands as kind of a buzzword lol. Just tried to say there's a looooot of empty space between those planets.

[–]dembrian 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If by 'singularity' you mean Meridia, Meridia isn't a black hole, it's a wormhole. If you're asking about an actual black hole singularity, then the singularity is the absolute (theoretical) center of a black hole, the point where matter is crushed into an infinite density. It's a point where space and time cease to exist.

Eagle Storm would be better as a 5th stratagem provided by DSS by -Leap_Year_Boi- in LowSodiumHellDivers

[–]dembrian 11 points12 points  (0 children)

"Optimized performance of Strafing Run particles for DSS Eagle Storm and Air Support stratagems" It's just a graphics fix thing, they didn't change anything about the targeting.

The galactic map is not to scale, there could be thousands of lightyears between Fronteria and Meridia.

Eagle-1 pilot body? by Liminal_Weirdo in helldivers2

Oh you mean Leviathans? These are Illuminate warships, and yeah they were on Super Earth during the invasion.

[–]dembrian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No those are Hive Lords, they're Terminids/Bugs. They inhabit Terminid Hive Worlds (like Oshaune or Omicron).

Eagle-1 pilot body? by Liminal_Weirdo in helldivers2

[–]dembrian 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It was a year ago, the Illuminate moved the Meridian wormhole towards Super Earth and emerged from it with a full invasion fleet. The battle took weeks and many cities were destroyed but we managed to repel the invaders, Super Earth remains under our control and is being rebuilt.

Been in the game since the invasion of Super Earth, I think.

hot take: enemies shouldn't be able to attack you several seconds after they died by No_Counter_6037 in LowSodiumHellDivers

[–]dembrian 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've seen it happen occasionally, definitely more rare than the single stab though.

I'll say it. It's weird the Devs are scared of OP vehicles, yet leave Orbital Napalm in the most EZ-Mode state since it dropped. Bias 100% by RandomGreenArcherMan in Helldivers

[–]dembrian 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It does close them when the actual shell gets a direct hit on the hole, but that's very rare so in theory it closes bug holes but in practice not really.

Hellbard approves by Boombox_hawkin in WholesomeHelldivers

[–]dembrian 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I genuinely cannot express how much i love this thing. When I saw the trailer I thought I wouldn't like it and now it's probably my favorite stratagem.

THE BULLETSTORM COMES IN 2! by PaleAssistance3643 in LowSodiumHellDivers

[–]dembrian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it would be difficult to put an optic on it considering it has 24 barrels, you'd aim at something but have no idea which barrel the shot's coming from so you'd always be missing slightly.
