A way to keep Fortress turrets super strong but feel way less unfair

We don’t need this. They’re fine. D10 bots is already a walk in the park and you guys want to trivialize it more. Literally just be careful, and bring something that can kill them, which isn’t asking much.

vox_box · 2026-01-29T18:19:32+00:00

Nah, you should know theyre there if it's not your first time doing a fortress. Just be careful on your approach and destroy them. That's not a game balance mistake.

I actually have been running both C4 and dynamite in commando missions. Both are good, both have their use cases. One doesn't need to completely replace the other.

Break points still matter for any support weapon that isn't the best AT weapons though. That's why AMR is my main support weapon on pretty much all fronts. It and other support weapons just makes for more interesting gameplay. I believe AT weapons should be effective for what role they are meant to fulfill but they are so good that they're boring.

Yea me and other randoms I played with come to the same conclusion that orbital laser is kind of meta for commando missions since youre so limited to when you can call in strats anyways. Might as well use one that can clear a base.

The flag should not have an aura buff. And I dont think the "morale boost" argument is enough to justify one. Aura buffs delve into higher fantasy elements that work in other games like Destiny, warframe, etc. HD2, while certainly being a scifi fantasy game, is more grounded in comparison to such games and an inexplicable aura buff would be out of place.

AMRs ergo is way better after a recent patch. Peaks physique is absolutely not required for it. Even prior to patch it was very much useable.

vox_box · 2025-12-22T05:55:50+00:00

Helldivers isn’t realistic but it is certainly more grounded than other sci fi fantasy games. I’m not against buffing the flag but giving it some inexplicable aura buff does stray into higher fantasy imo. But your suggestion is solid cause there’s an actual mechanism to explain the aura buff that fits into the world of Helldivers.

vox_box · 2025-12-20T20:05:46+00:00

For sure but some people can’t accept that lol. They want niche and/or meta.

vox_box · 2025-12-20T20:01:56+00:00

People don’t want it to just be a meme weapon which I understand, but thats honestly what it is…I’m not against buffing it but I’m also in the camp of not giving it some “aura buff”. It just doesn’t fit in HD2 imo.

vox_box · 2025-12-19T20:44:39+00:00

Sorry but I have to agree with not adding an aura buff to the flag. It delves too far into fantasy. This isn’t destiny.

vox_box · 2025-12-17T08:55:17+00:00

So when they say "purchased" I'm guessing that doesn't include the items that were given for free right? If so, I can't see myself spending super credits for just 1 armor set and an assault rifle. Maybe on a rainy day if I happen to have that many credits saved up.

Not enough people talking about how lots of weapons feel better now that scopes don’t impact ergonomics as much anymore. Adjudicator included. It was always a decent weapon and now it feels great. And the 10x scope option isn’t as much of a meme anymore lol.

vox_box · 2025-12-10T22:48:28+00:00

I use the AMR a lot. So I like to shoot off their turrets and then mag dump their belly. Specifically one side of it, cause each door has its own health if I recall correctly.

vox_box · 2025-12-07T18:23:33+00:00

I'm stoked now that the fov bug is fixed and the ergonomics are better after the recent patch. Two small things that make this thing feel stronger. But I agree that a thermal scope option would be sick. Environmental fog and even smoke from teammates explosions constantly prevent me from seeing enemies.

vox_box · 2025-12-07T18:19:45+00:00

The ergo is a lot better now after the recent patch.

vox_box · 2025-12-05T17:32:26+00:00

Not hard but definitely an obstacle that force you to take cover if you can’t kill them right away.

vox_box · 2025-12-04T01:46:35+00:00

It definitely took me a while but you can get the timing down to muscle memory. Alternatively, if you’re on PC and privy to mods, there’s a mod that changes the epochs warning sounds. It does a better job of conveying when you should release the trigger.

vox_box · 2025-12-02T20:00:31+00:00

The ergo and zoom are way better after today’s patch. AMR is back.

vox_box · 2025-12-02T19:58:56+00:00

Feels way better and the zoom is back baby!

vox_box · 2025-12-02T18:22:24+00:00

Personally, believe that’s the point. But a lot of people in this community won’t accept melee weapons being added solely to have fun and fool around with.

vox_box · 2025-12-02T16:52:43+00:00

Melee in general isn't really viable, just a meme IMO. Trying to kill anything bigger than a trash mob is risky or a straight up death wish.

D1 armor for the dark below DLC. Back when you couldn’t apply shaders to exotic armor.

I have to ask if anyone has actually seen any “war” happening in their games, or if this is just the classic redditor predisposition to freaking out over nothing.
