      Not sure what you mean when you say this is different than suicide squad? Both are always online. Both have battle passes that once purchased, never expire, both have free content updates with cosmetic only purchases. So I’m confused when you say this is different as a live service game than SSKTJL.

      To be fair, the game’s friend system is broken still, and I have to open up my lobbies, so my friends could join, but that sometimes leads to randoms joining the game since it’s public. I usually ask in VOIP or text chat for them to leave, but at times they don’t listen, so I need to free up slots for my buddies. I did feel incredibly sorry every time it happened, but it’s on the devs to fix that issue

Recoilless fireteam (it's so damn hard to say "help me with reloading", is it) can obliterate all these in a matter of 6 to 9 seconds, at the absolute most. With the latest patch, even less, so long as the gunner can somewhat accurately aim.

    I’m a new player, just started last week. Got kicked early on a couple of times which really sucked but then last night a more experienced Diver joined me on my otherwise solo mission. He guided me through it, let me use his jump pack, his guard dog and led me on my first ever mission against the bots (which I’d previously been too afraid to try). He had to leave after that but he sent me a friend request & my faith in the community was restored.❤

      the game balance is broken, so not much to understand, max difficulty is a boring kind of hardcore challenge based on broken balancing to make it hard, rather then fun hard, most unlocks are downgrades and not fun to use since they dont make much sense vs reality or likewise helldiver logic when used at higher difficulty and lower difficulties are just running sims once you figure things out.

      @@DreadedLad88honestly he is kind of right because they nerf guns and stratagems and say they nerf mobs, they said that chargers and biles don’t spawn often but that’s not the case… people are not complaining for no reason. Some are unjust but some guns do feel very weak and guns like the autocannon can’t even one hit chargers but it can do objectives from across the map, literally makes 0 sense. They keep nerfing things when they should just add more things in. I feel like this game is trying to be like a roguelike but the enemies get power ups and the map changes like random fire tornados or meteors rather than you getting stronger and feeling like a true soldier, I don’t even use the rail gun and I do not like the nerf because why lessen the potential of a weapon when there’s tons of enemies on the screen… when weapons can’t do the dmg and stratagems go on cooldown, do you expect people to smile and be happy when they fail their extract? Lessening build diversity is bad for a game that has so many players, builds should not be limited when enemies progressively get stronger… soon everyone will be using the same thing… what’s the point of using certain things if others are point blank way better. One more thing, I feel like there needs to be a minimum level requirement and room descriptions, for example like “lvl 20+ super sample farm” etc I also find that trying to help low level players is nearly impossible, they do not want medals or super credits, you can lead a horse to water but can’t force it to drink…

    Let me put this in the context of the nerf that so many reviews were/are upset about: Anyone who is upset about not being able to reliably deal with multiple giant insects with heavy armor plating and damage resistance, when a Helldiver is a regular person, is missing the point. This is not a game about mowing down everything on the planet. This is a game about taking tactically beneficial objectives and culling the oppositions effective numbers. You are just a normal human who is every bit as squishy as a terminid scavenger, and you need to understand that in order to play Helldivers (either one) effectively. Now, in the present, with all of the additional firepower we have, it's hardly an issue at all if something is nerfed, and I don't think any of the weapons are really essential to succeed in higher difficulties. Players can and will make the most out of their arsenal because we've learned how to use tactics against our despicable, but incredibly intelligent, enemies. If a gamer wants a power trip without vulnerability, they're going to want to stay away from Helldivers. The warfare is just too serious to go in with a complex and expect to survive.

    I got to play multiplayer for the first time yesterday and got to grind for 5 hours with my best friend from the Army. We have known each other for almost 20 years now and used to grind like that back in the 360 days. After he left I decided to give insanity mode a shot. First mission I just about failed and had thrown an SOS out. Two level 50 players joined. They didn't say anything and hust commenced to wiping bots off the face of the planet. They stuck with me until the final mission which was a bot swarm. Me being low level tried my best to help but died a lot. We ended destroying all the bots but me and another dude were dead, so the other guy waited outside of the Pelican until the reinforcement cooled, spawned the other dude, and then they both waited for the cool down to spawn me. Then we egressed. So far my experience with multiplayer has been very positive.

    Dude i cant tell you how much i love the gunplay in this game. The "floatyness" is honestly more realistic than most shooters and it takes rng "damage cones" out of the equasion. Its realistic because the bullet goes pretty much straight out of the barrel no matter qhere the barrel is facing, so it forces you to develop a new skill to really get good at using it to its fullest potential. I honestly love the big heavy slow guns because when you get really used to swinging them around you can actually move pretty quick with them and you start to feel op and it just... feeeeeels good.

The only problem would be that when playing offline, you won't be able to contribute to the galactic war when not connected to the main servers, but that's fine. If you were without internet, then you couldn't contribute to liberating or defending planets anyway, and when the servers inevitably go down in the future, there will be no galactic war to contribute to anyway.

    Having two people run EAT has worked well for my group at 7+ difficulty since the cooldown time is so fast you can generally call it down multiple times in prolonged engagements. A direct shot strips armor on a charger leg and then it's the same process as before of swapping to primary and finishing them off. It takes some getting used to but it ended up being way more effective then any of us expected. We also found 1 EAT + Rail Cannon strike would take down bile titans immediately but don't have enough runs to guarantee that's accurate. Hopefully they continue to fine tune spawn rates because I think people have to use more unique strategies rather than just running up and directly confronting every charger with a railgun.

But to blame the game doesn't make sense. It's about having fun, play the difficulty thats fun. If thay means you play level 2 with a flamethrower just wrecking the small bugs go for it.

You still can kill titans and chargers, it's just not for free anymore. You have to move and use your brain. Train your aiming and timing. The game literally is for everyone. It has room for everyone. Why making the game balanced around casually players? Just so they can feel good they can play on 9? I stay out of 9 most of the times because I'm not good enough yet. So I play on 7 and 8 and still have a ton of fun and work. Just stick to your level and use your brain.

There were viable options to choose from but if you have 1 option that makes you a 1-man army with a solution to every problem without regard for stratagem planning or teammates, then you've got a whole new problem.

    Flame thrower makes quick work of chargers if you focus their leg, the unlisted EAT/Recoilless buff lets you easily strip their leg armor, and the railgun still does it in 2 shots on unsafe mode, rail cannons one shot them and the rocket pods make short work of their armor plating and of course the orbital laser is a bit slower but gets the job done in a pinch. I dunno how people have so much trouble with chargers. And now that we have mechs (after the video was made of course) they are even less of a threat to a well coordinated team on even the highest difficulties.

    Idkn dude before the patch I was chilling in lv 8-9 missions with ammo backpack and nade launcher, the stratagems I used to use back then was 500kg and orbital railcannon and it was ok, I changed the build a lil bit later on but after the patch I'm using shield backpack, laser cannon, EMS orbital strike and 500kg on those same levels and it's fine. To me, the playerbase got "addicted" to a meta that works and makes the game easier and now that the meta toys are not that strong "there's nothing good to use anymore".
    Idkn just get good, play WITH the team so you can learn how to use team based weapons like spear and others, it makes it easy too but the meta was literally 1 guy can do it all and now they can't do it like they used to so is "bad" now.
    Forgot to mention that the build was for bugs and I used stealth a lot too but even so I would finish missions with 400+ kills on the bug side, on automatons It would get hard only on evac cause I would just run places down using stealth and stratagems but on evac they spawn like crazy but EMS is so busted you just have to play tactically and now when to use it.

    as someone who shoots guns a lot IRL I can say the the gun handling is realistic. when you shoot, recoil will make the muzzle rise dramatically unlike in many modern shooters where the muzzle miraculously stays in a 2 inch area with pretty much no rise at all and when aiming a gun and you swing side to side your front and rear sights will absolutely get out of alignment until you stop and manually correct your sight picture hence the swaying aiming reticle in 3rd person. the guy saying that the gunplay is floaty is clearly a COD player who has gotten spoiled on unrealistic gunplay that holds your hand in all aspects where you just point and shoot a laserbeam.

    I disagree violently on the second review's talking points. Higher difficulties SHOULD require more skilled play, and there are still plenty of options to win in a fight. Losing should be more common on higher difficulties. They're not for everyone. Players need to find the difficulty they're comfortable and have fun at, and play on that. For me, I like the difficulty of 8 and 9. That's why I play them. You're not being forced to play at them (Except for super samples, but I don't think it's impossible to play at 7, where they're available.)

  • @MtnNerd

    A lot of people are just too prideful to lower the difficulty. The devs intended Helldive to be the Dark Souls mode for this game that you could brag about to your friends, so naturally they were horrified when they realized a large percentage of players were at this difficulty and adjusted things accordingly. If you're having trouble, lower things to 7 or 8 and save 9 for when you really feel like a challenge. The game is already very accessible to everyone by having nine difficulty levels.

    I understand why the developers made the nerf. Those weapons, pre-nerfed, made short very work on the harder enemies. Enemies that are suppose to be tackled, strategically by the entire group. Kind of like the first Starship Troopers movie. We've not one-man killing machines but a group of regular humanoids soldiers that signed up to do the unthinkable. By design it's suppose to feel overwhelming and stuff hitting the fan in the highest difficulties. That's part of the fun. Having players being able to easily 2 shot main enemy type threats consistently would make the game start feeling stale. And when that happens, there would be far more bad reviews as a result.

You have a minimum amount of lives, and when a player of that level joins your game, you just know they are gonna die repeatedly and take up majority of those lives. My friend started late in the game and was level 5 and when i brought him to a higher difficulty like extreme or impossible he had a horrible time surviving lol.

    I don't know if this is considered dated, i just hope Helldivers 2 doesn't go to rock bottom and hopefully undo what they fucked up on.

    127 hours in, and after the last patch I don't care to play anymore... everything is just a chore now and definitively not fun anymore.

      Bought game after this "game killing" patch and can't understand why all people just don't use other weapons? Rly you are blind or something? This game have more then 2-3 things to play with and you can try different combinations of strats and weapons. I can''t understand why you all crying it's not fun anymore.

      @@BlackJackSincroknight I'll help you with this:
      It all has to do with viability of the weapons on higher difficulty, specifically 7-9. There are so many armored units that it simply invalidates many of the current weapons. Yes, you can use different weapons for different things, but that only works for low level play. The reason people complained about the Railgun nerf is because it was a safe, simple, easy, efficient and reliable way to deal with heavy armor. Now with the nerf it's less fun because you run the risk of dying every time you pull the trigger in unsafe mode, furthermore, the reward (damage output for a full charge) doesn't match the risk (overcharge = death). The OG railgun was better by far.
      That's why some ppl say that certain patches are "game killing", because some of them are.

      ​@anyany2021 They nerfed it because of railcannon and shield back pack fan boys kicking people for violating the meta. There's plenty of other strategies you can adapt to easily beat the Helldive difficulty, one being STICKING WITH YOUR TEAMMATES

    I don’t think there is an accessibility problem. Just turn down the difficulty. Pressuring the Devs to make hardest difficulty easier just ruins the game for players who aren’t struggling or enjoy the challenge. Players that didn’t like the difficulty spike don’t have to play 9.

    My biggest issues with the game is connection issues and just not having friends to play with. I'm new to the game and still figuring it out and solo is a struggle.

    Im level 46 and I dont ever kick people, i believe I only kicked one person, and he kept team killing. We asked him to be careful, he put an orbital barrage on top of the team and killed 3 of us. Then he ran all the way across the map by himself and started extraction. We told him both in voice and text chat to not start extraction with 25 minutes left. He didnt listen. So he became our one and only kick.

      I've called shit on top of myself. Tends to happen when you get ragdolled while you're holding an active targeting beacon. When a 500kg beacon slips from your hand, you just accept your faith. Also I'm never on voice in public lobbies because people are hotmicing or constantly yapping or just being toxic cod kiddies.
      Then again as long as shit's not hitting the fan, I'm trying to clear the map before extracting. It's a little frustrating when new players just rush the primary objective and extract, but it is what it is. It's up to experienced players to show them the way since the game barely is and we can afford a little patience.
