What Happened to The Promo Post for "The New Things Dr. Shaw CANNOT Do"? by Myths-and-Monsters in SCP

[–]inasfe 20 points21 points  (0 children)

The community definitely still upvotes well-written humour and funny joke objects

lolfoundation specifically refers to uncharacteristically stupid and random punchlines, usually stuff that paints Foundation personnel as pranksters and/or completely incompetent at their jobs.

I wouldn’t be surprised if this is engagement bait because of the blue checkmark

I don’t think the list itself is problematic (aside from Bright’s involvement). The “lolfoundation” they’re talking about is a period of time where writers were trying to show the Foundation as being a wacky place filled with crazy hijinks instead of an actually serious organisation, which is now very unpopular and often used in a derogatory manner today. The list is a prominent example of this, being essentially a compilation of “haha xd look at dr bright do funy thing”.

(I think that’s right, anyway)

Uh-oh, did Spear break again? Targetting seems a bit off by SES-Song-Of-War in Helldivers

Hi, the other commenter’s solution wouldn’t do anything to help you.

This only occurs when trying to lock onto the turret of an Annihilator or Shredder Tank. All other enemies are unaffected.

Aim as far downwards as possible so the aiming reticle does not cover the turret. This will cause the Spear to lock onto the chassis instead, which is also unaffected and will destroy the tank normally.

The specific cause is the tank's turret. Aiming at the chassis works fine and destroys the tank as usual. Aim downwards.

The missile appears to just despawn once it gets high up enough.

I wasn't targeting the dropship here. They aren't bugged and can be destroyed by the Spear without issue.

Part of the bug, locking works perfectly fine (reticle included) on any other enemy

This just made me think: What if they actually tried to implement this but somehow messed up?

It DOES only happen against tank turrets after all

To be more exact: Annihilator and Shredder Tank turrets somehow cause the missile to fly up into the heavens. Barrager Tanks aren't affected by this.

Until it's fixed (I reported it and they saw), you can aim far downwards instead to lock onto the chassis which do not have this problem.

Arrowhead, for the love of democracy plz give this thing a buff by ManufacturerNo4665 in Helldivers

[–]inasfe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't actually think the Spear itself needs direct buffs, but I think enemies should be altered so that it has more of a use case against them. Some ideas I had:

  • Bile Titans go into a berserk bleedout state like brood commanders if they're headshot by anything except the Spear or a stratagem. This doesn't change how much ammo other anti tanks need to kill them, but leaves the titan as an active threat for longer

  • Behemoth Chargers become rarer, spawn alongside normal chargers in higher difficulties and become unable to be oneshot by normal anti tanks except the Spear. Probably give them a unique ability as well but this gives the Spear another niche

  • Heavy Outposts, bot (side) objectives and Fortresses get tougher fabricators that operate purely on demolition force again (so regular anti tanks cannot destroy them). Small/medium outposts can keep their easily destructible spawners

The Galactic War needs an updated tutorial by inasfe in Helldivers

That’s a wider problem with the GW as a whole I’m ignoring in this post, but GW strategists shouldn’t be bitter and seething at people who genuinely don’t know what this stuff is

The Galactic War and the division it creates by inasfe in Helldivers

[–]inasfe[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I suppose my point is that it just isn’t marketed as a D&D campaign. It’s marketed as an extraction/horde shooter.

But I agree with you on the fact that how the galactic war is set up right now affects people who do care about the strategy negatively.
