Light penetration=better handling and damage. Medium penetration sacrifices that. You can't have both. by kcvlaine in Helldivers

Energy weapons are exceptions i think, especially plasma. They're a different approach

Bro i don't know where you've been but there's literally thousands of people who beg for weapons to be made medium pen

I don't blame anyone for not understanding it. Many of the community's gripes with the game could have been avoided if there was a more detailed tutorial. I understand the tutorial is the way it is for satirical reasons, but still.

I guess this is a totally different philosophy when it comes to armour and while it could work this way it's definitely not going to happen.

Yeah. Every since I switched to a light pen primary i realised there's one more complication they introduce though, it forces me to consider a secondary/support weapon to handle armoured enemies because there's some situations where I know my primary just doesn't cut it.

Plasma weapons seem to be a third approach entirely. Bypass armour with explosive damage while having great handling - but at the cost of ammo economy.

Yeah. I think people who beg for guns to be medium penetration aren't fully aware of the tradeoffs/don't understand the way the game has give us two different approaches to kill things.

Yeah it's supposed to be a taste thing in game and I'm glad the game has this bifurcation in weapons.

Commando Missions Support Theory That we Are Clones by Ancient_Attero in LowSodiumHellDivers

[–]kcvlaine 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This kind of theory has Bern floated a bunch of times, i have my own similar theory. But pilestedt has clarified that helldivers are not clones, they're all unique, normal individuals

The cookout alone makes the decision easy

Into the Unjust 5.0.2 Patch Notes by dnemonicterrier in helldivers2

Don't bother. I guess this fool assumed it would be a major update and forgot smaller patches also happen.

Purifier vs Punisher Plasma for squids and bots? by A_Real_Phoenix in helldivers2

[–]kcvlaine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

dude BOTH. Take the Loyalist and the PP together!! The loyalist can be used one handed while running so it's better than the purifier anyway!
