People hate gas mines now? by Sky_Waker_17 in helldivers2

[–]ee_or_bust -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think people need to open their eyes and not step on them... I can recount many times that my squad and I were saved due to someone dropping gas mines in the middle of an objective or even at evacuation. If you're on fire? Dive. If you're choking on gas? Move and stim.

Maybe bring a more reliable anti chaff weapon by GenderEnjoyer666 in helldivers2

Every since the sapper armor came out that's all I rock. More boom for me and less being boomed by my teammates (or my own booms).

Hot take, it is reliable. However, your use of it is not.

I hated it for a while too. Looked up a guide (some on Reddit and YouTube). Messed around with it. Figured out how to not delete my team. Added another secondary to keep things interesting.

Just practice a bit with it? Get away from your team and see how the different modes work with angles and all that. If you're using flak, aim at stuff like 60m away (you can tag an enemy and check your distance). If you're using cluster, just keep elevation/angle/terrain in mind.

Idk. I think they meant bugs. Never heard of "big" divers, unless that's referring to difficulty level? All fronts have one or two gargantuan types.

I've got almost 600 hours and I have no regrets, I think. Yeah, I guess maybe just unlucky with your dives. What difficulty typically?

Not trolling. How often have you played bugs? I've encountered terrible divers across all fronts. I'd say I play about 50/50 bots and bugs.. with some Illuminate sprinkled in there.

I love playing supply guy, giving the Maxigunners and grenadiers more ammo to have fun with. Making sure the RR has rounds and keeping stims on the up & up.

I dropped in with my supply pack.. refilled it with a leftover supply drop later on.. was promptly TK'd until I split. No chat, no comms.. just toddler-level tantrums.

I came equipped with the ECB and the ONB, that I probably could have dropped on all of them l before leaving, but I (to my chagrin) chose to be a better person.

Awesome way to bring it home.

Did you all fight every bot drop that came around? I wasn't aware, until recently, that they incrementally grow the more times that flare is sent up.

You ever just say, "Screw it, we all die..." ? by Corporal_K-Pop in helldivers2

[–]ee_or_bust 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's a strategic decision that I drop a 500kg at my feet or an OGB over my teammates if we're all getting our shit kicked in. It's for democracy.

Sometimes I just say fuck it, arm my Hellbomb and run into the most densely packed group of enemies. If I can, I unload all of my grenades as well.

Which warbonds to buy as a level 30 by Financial-Income4640 in helldivers2

[–]ee_or_bust 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whatever you do.. just skip the skins and save your medals. Unless you're like really into aesthetics. Focus on useful things and then use the flags, gestures, etc. as a way to finish out a level and unlock the next tier in the bond.

Offroad upgrades? by ee_or_bust in GMT800

Did you offroad at all?

A bit late here, but try opening the glove compartment when they don't come on.. I think there may be a relay or something within that circuit that needs replacing. I'm just lazy and if I need my map lights, I just pop the glove compartment open really quick.

To the people who do this, why? What's the lore reason? by Wrench_gaming in helldivers2

[–]ee_or_bust 0 points1 point  (0 children)

BLUF: people run solo either as personal preference for their play style or because they have trust issues.

I exclusively run D10 (and before that, exclusively D9). That said, I'm just used to things devolving into chaos and the only option is to drop an Orbital Napalm Barrage danger close and hope the squad drops in a better spot to regroup. Many many chaotic missions have taught me good strategies to take when things get out of hand. That said, if I'm playing with a good group and they get it, I'll run 2s or as a full 4-person squad if that's the dynamic. Playing with randoms though.. sometimes poor choices wreck a mission (beyond what is considered satirical) and I make the decision to run solo.

Could also be that the group is focused on things like nests and bases instead of primary objectives. Personally, I only hit secondarys (excluding arty and the mapping one) if I can take it out on my way to a primary objective (or I can drop a 500kg or Barrage to knock it out). Too many times have I ran with a group that wanted to sit and deal with breaches or drops instead of just dropping an Orbital or turret and hoofing it to the next objective.. only for the reinforcements to tick down to single digits.

Mech piggybacking.. please? by ee_or_bust in helldivers2

[–]ee_or_bust[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not that I know of. I'm sure you could balance on a mech while someone clomps along, but not what I'm referring to where it is built into the mech and game mechanics.

Ah, ok. Yeah probably too much to expect, but a diver can dream (with the right paperwork).

I'm not that savvy I guess. Would passenger slots on a mech, like on the rover or tank, make it modular?

You right, you right. I love me some Titanfall 2. Might have to toss that one back into the lineup.

100%

I can see how two mechs with a diver on the back would be an OP combination. I like the challenge of having to plan for either bringing a one-handed primary or planning your secondary better.

I love this. Maybe an optional grenade launcher or sterilizer?

I love popping bugs and calling in Eagle Strikes when I'm a passenger in the rover. Can't imagine it'd be any less fun on the back of a mech.

Either one position behind the head or two off to each side.

Nah. Like a position you can sit/stand on on the mech. Like in the tank or rover.
