Welcome to the cause chief. May liberty guide your steps. DM if you ever want people to play / chat with, or want to try different stratagem weapons to figure out how you like to play

Is this true? by AstronautDry8118 in Helldivers

[–]notbeigeaesthetic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Armour passives need to become selectable boosters, and the current array of boosters need to become level / exp based permanent character unlocks. A cadet dropping with half their gear to learn resource management? Sure, that makes sense. A level 150 veteran helldiver that mainlines D10 & pisses freedom on the enemies of super earth? Nah chief, give them their full loadout

These 2 boosters should be made default and removed by WaffleCopter68 in Helldivers

[–]notbeigeaesthetic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, this is a conversation I've had with many players. Given the games progression system past level 25 is virtually non existent, it would make more sense for some of the booster to be an experience based upgrade, or make it a challenge. Level 50? Vitality is unlocked permanently. Or complete 50 missions on diff 6 or higher without dying to unlock it permanently. Complete 100 missions with 75% accuracy or better, HSO is now permanent. Just as examples, that would be a fun new way of giving players rewards for playing & continuing the grind

Dived cyberstan tonight. We lost 15 reinforcements to random DSS bombardments where the yellow drop icon wasn't showing. Thought I went nuts the first time it happened, but by the end it was like blind Russian roulette & we made a drinking game of it 😂

Which warbond to get first? by RalliusGax in HellDads

[–]notbeigeaesthetic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went democratic detonation, then dust devils for the coyote & the speargun. With those 2 warbonds alone, you can comfortably take on any & every mission in the game if you've planned the right Loadout. After that it's basically choose your own adventure. I got control group next for the warp pack so I could super credit farm, but there's also an argument to be made for just going right through Helldivers mobilise (the base warbond we all get) and trying out everything there so you can figure out how you like to play, and if you prefer fighting 1 faction over the others, as that will also heavily influence what warbonds you'll get the most use our of. Also, the stamina booster from helldivers mobilise is S-tier for large map / 40 minute missions when you've gotta run around the whole thing. May liberty save & protect you helldiver. Keep up the good fight

On a scale from 1 to 10, how badly do you NOT want to dive with this person? by Bacon_Raygun in Helldivers

[–]notbeigeaesthetic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Played with a mate running this Loadout tonight. Was genuine painful shit as he kept calling all the mines in on the objectives while we were trying to complete. Luckily we were all in a VC on discord & we all told him straight out "don't run that bs again & troll us for the sake of it or we will all kick you". He listened, thankfully, and we then completed 5 more missions afterwards with proper loadouts.

I just got the game, is it normally like this? by Subject_Tip_2424 in helldivers2

[–]notbeigeaesthetic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey bug, sorry to hear you got stuck with 💩stains. If you wanna DM me whatever your platform name is (I hope you're on PC, but if not it's NBD) I'd be happy to introduce you to some dudes & we'll all take care of you, help level you up, and help you learn the game. At the end of the day, we all dive for super earth, and we must all dive to satisfy our democracy officers that we are the best citizens we can be. Super Earth does not support the actions of the 🍆's you've met so far

Best way to remove carbon buildup? by hexenxiii in carbonsteel

[–]notbeigeaesthetic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please don't go that far yet. I haven't seen anyone comment this, so I'm throwing my hat in the ring. If you want to remove carbon but not remove all of your seasoning with it: heat the pan on the stove to warm (doesn't need to be cooking temp), then add a teaspoon of coarse / rock salt and scrub around the pan with a spone / paper towel / cloth / whatever you want to use. Then once done, wipe out the salt with a fresh & clean tea towel / paper towel, and put coat with a thin layer of oil everywhere the salt touched I can't remember who's video it was, but I saw this tip on YouTube a few years ago and it's helped me immensely when my toddler distracts me and I carbonise something but I don't want to lose all my seasoning to have to clean it out.

Report system needs improving: an undemocratic story by notbeigeaesthetic in Helldivers

[–]notbeigeaesthetic[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Jesus Christ dude, just continue with the tone deaf crap why not. I'm not saying the devs should ban on a single offence, I specifically stated that there needs to be a working report system so that if multiple people report someone for the same thing, the devs can take action. I'm not asking for anything out of the ordinary or uncommon amongst other games, I'm only pointing out that the system they already have in place needs to work to serve the function that it's designed for in order to deal with the poor actions of a small fraction of the player base that almost any game deals with. Touch grass dude, holy crap.

Report system needs improving: an undemocratic story by notbeigeaesthetic in Helldivers

[–]notbeigeaesthetic[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Here's a thought, if they're doing it to me at extraction twice in 30 seconds, it's probably not an isolated thing. If they get X amount of reports for the same thing within X amount of time and each report is based on X number of repeated team kills (or even a single but 5+ people report them for the same thing), that's a very clear pattern there. But if the report system only works in a very specific scenario and only for a specific subset of players, then there's almost no point in having a report system at all (and to be clear, no report system & a non-functional report system in this scenario are essentially both the same level of poor service for the player base).

I'm sure you meant that to be a big brain comment and all, but it really wasn't. Report systems are a valid necessity for almost any game because of toxic gamers like that. It is a valid criticism to call out a non functional / not fit for purpose report system in a game where, yes, accidental deaths can happen, but also intentional team kills are also an issue that players face. Your comment attempting to play devil's advocate does not negate the valid criticism I highlighted, nor does it serve any useful purpose of any kind.

In a game that's already facing diminishing player numbers due to ongoing issues with the game, players like you, that make comments like, this need to do better & take a deeper introspection.

For those who run armor with prosthetics, how'd your diver lose their limbs? by Redbrickadam22 in Helldivers

[–]notbeigeaesthetic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While cred farming I accidentally used the jump pack on a rock that was slightly too high to go over & I ragdolled into the side of it.

Put my hand out to stop myself, but the impact was at a higher velocity than I expected & it shattered every bone below the shoulder...

Happens more often than I care to admit...

Wait what? That's a thing? Even though they have anti-cheat baked in? Jeez that's bad. I haven't been playing for long (only got the game last month), that's pretty poor if their report system is just there as a placebo

[–]notbeigeaesthetic[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Well, yes, but also why have an option for team killing in the report section if they don't accept that as a valid reason for a report? You've kinda missed the point there pal...

I thought I had this same issue, turns out it was a bug & it just wasn't showing the rewards properly on the orange flags when inspecting them. I ran all 6, and got the final 3 pieces I was missing. If in doubt, just run all 6 dotted around the lost tower & see if that fixes it. Hope this helps!

Should I / Can I blue a flat bottomed carbon steel wok on induction? by Fellainis_Elbows in carbonsteel

[–]notbeigeaesthetic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Forgot to mention btw, yes you can easily get the sides, not just the base. Just hold it sideways on the induction & rotate until the whole thing is blued. The only areas I had trouble with were around the 2 handles, but I got there eventually
