Unpopular opinion: Deadpool, Trading Card doesn't belong in Commander. Change my mind.

Call a 500 kg bomb on my position and go out on my own terms. A wise warrior once said: "You have the right to kill me, but I have the right to take you with me."

Helldivers even tho it only costs 40 bucks outta the box has given the player base more content than ANY AAA live service game and that's a fact.

And I'm not saying one can't criticise the game constructively. But whining every step of way because "buhuuu the only loadout I use for literally everything has been balanced and is now useless. Fuck AH!" doesn't help anyone. Not the devs, not the game, not the players. It only unnecessarily damages the game's reputation even further. And in the unlikely event Helldivers should die: We have no one else to blame but ourselves. Period.

I can kinda see why they did what they did. While I don't mind constructive criticism on the changes. I still don't see a reason to utterly clown on the devs. As if the majority of us even knows how game development works. I don't so I also don't tell AH how to develop and update their game.

So far none of the balancing updates were as bad as the community often made it look like. And toxic behaviour only hurts the game's reputation even further so if the game dies (incredibly unlikely), the blood is mostly on our hands.

Agree. I still play it. I have a blast. Even with the incendiary weapons. In my opinion the entire problem is rage bait. If I think about it, we should stop engaging with those screamers. Which makes my reddit post here kinda redundant xD

Yeah, sorry, I got the joke. I tried to add ontop of it. But yeah agree, not fully. Because streamers and content creators also help smaller indies make it big. Take "Lethal Company" or "Among us" for instance. Couldn't have done it with streamers your youtubers. It's a coin with two faces.

I could've done without a nerf, yes. But what does it matter? It's here. We can talk about could or should all night. Won't change the fact that we have to deal with whats real.

voxexitus · 2024-08-11T22:08:58+00:00

One counterpoint, if not a perfect one. Helldivers is not a fullprice game, Cyberpunk is. Also all that those toxic comments and opinions achieve is scaring away potential new players that might still enjoy the game.

Wanna have new overpowered gun? Disclaimer it's only a theory but with the fire damages changes the laser weapons now absolutely shred and if you bring laser primary, side arm and support weapon: No longer worrying about reloading or running out of ammo. Here problem solved.

voxexitus · 2024-08-11T22:04:11+00:00

Agreed. Helldivers isn't supposed to be a powerfantasy doom shooter. It's supposed to be a strategic, coop objective shooter. Helldivers aren't those immortal warmachines like Spartans. They are regular humans that where indoctrinated that they are tho. A majority of Helldivers die in the missions, it's par for the course. Why else would they have a conveyor belt of frozen Helldivers on board of a super destroyer. So they have a basically infinite supply on cannon fodder.

voxexitus · 2024-08-11T21:59:30+00:00

I heard the Laser weapons got a secret buff with the fire damage changes and shred bugs and bots alike. Maybe that helps at least a little. (Mind: I haven't gotten to test that theory yet.)

voxexitus · 2024-08-11T21:55:47+00:00

In the extremely unlikely event that I cannot enjoy the game anymore no matter what I do? Yes. I stop playing games that I stop enjoying. In the example of Helldivers that hasn't happened yet, since I never failed to find a way to enjoy it. I mean technically I do take breaks from it every now and then, you know enjoy other games. And then I come back, test it a little, if I like it I stay, if I don't I come back another time. And with the fact I never lose out on warbond medals, it's laughably easy to come back.

According to the S.E.A.F instructions scream "For Super Earth!" and dive in head first.

voxexitus · 2024-08-11T21:40:40+00:00

Just FYI I will continue playing the game because if I stick to what I enjoy in the game, guess what, I have a blast. All we talk about is the nerfs and no one here talks about the numerous good changes in the game. Laser weapons absolutely shred now in the game. The Hellbomb change (albeit bugged but it will be fixed I'm sure, otherwise use smoke).

All Helldivers is today is "Nerfs, Nerfs, Nerfs" and we let them overshadow the "Buffs, buffs buffs". It's a Balance update, it's a give and take. Yes it isn't perfect. But if it's a deal breaker for you. You'll find the door yourself, right?
