With all the raving about the upcoming Warbond, I've noticed a surprising lack of talk on what to me is absolutely a standout feature—Stationary Shroud reduces weapon sway.

I at least know how I will be capitalizing on this Armor Passive...in the most Medic-Diver way possible.

DISCUSSION How tf does stealth aggro even work in this game?

12 Upvotes

So far, my only logical conclusion is: Enemies know where you are, always. But they pretend not to.
Its either that or there is some kind of dice being tossed for your every action deep in code.

Sometimes when you finish mission and call extract, despite being spotted and called reinforcements two times, not a single soul will approach your extract zone. Sometimes, even when you have done everything smoothly there will be 500 patrols going EXACTLY right into your hiding spot.
Sometimes when you silently deploy C4s across all fabricators/objectives and you blow them up, nothing happens, exactly as it should. But in other cases there will be an entire outpost just randomly running right where you are from the other end of the map.
Aren't bots only supposed to chase you to the last location you were seen at? Then how do they track you down where you are no matter what?

This pure randomness of commando missions made me not wanting to touch them ever again entirely, at least for now. Maybe I'm just wrong, who knows. Maybe there are some insanely secret and obscure game mechanics discovered by only the most diehard ghostdivers. If that's what it is I'm more than happy to know about them.

QUESTION Which mission + Biome combination do you enjoy most?

• Upvotes

Personally, I don't have strong biases.

And I have played enough to not feel all too strongly about any particular mission type.

That said, I do appreciate that both:

  • Launch an ICBM missions and
  • Halt Cyborg Production
  • Destroy Exospire
  • Destroy Spore Lung

Have nice, climatic payoffs.

It's almost a shame Destory Spore Lung was recently nerfed and now is easier to destroy without a Hellbomb.

DISCUSSION Mods have potential to really help this game, and they already are helping. More so then I think some people give them credit.

As a long time fan of this game, its sad to see the hate that mods are getting and I really hope that Arrowhead doesn't try to remove or ban them. I in fact hope they take a complete opposite approach, and embrace mods whether that be via a mod menu and modded/non modded match making or just using the fix mods like Bingus' to help them fix the game.

The way I see it, having a strong modding community is more often then not good for a game. Thinking of Skyrim, Minecraft, the Fallouts, and Risk of Rain 2, mods introduce a lot more to the game. While the game at its core may not be bad by any means, its undeniable the possibilities modding opens up in the way of playstyle, experience, availability, performance and so much more.

Even I'll admit, the mods that are deliberately crazy and wiping maps in minutes can be silly. Yet even those aren't bad for the game. People play those mods for a silly time and to feel uber powerful, not really ever using it for a long long time. Even if they do, those players will eventually stop or get burnt out of the gameplay.

Having experienced plenty of the game both vanilla and non, I ultimately believe modding as a whole is good for this game. Helldivers 2 is easily one of the most fun games I've ever played and modding has helped me personally with many of the problems I've had with the game for a while that have taken away from that fun.

Lastly, I don't think mods alone are enough to keep the game afloat forever with the current direction its headed. Getting armor "customization" in a war bond is the same level of bad as mechs in a war bond IMO. If they are able to keep selling us what we've asked for in the ever more bloated number of war bonds and not give it to us in base game, being a new player would be an even worse hell in a year or two. Especially when it comes to customization (the #1 way players express themselves) and progression which I hope we all can agree this game needs more of.

DISCUSSION Anybody interested in Weapon stats visualiser?

4 Upvotes

Hello fellow Helldivers!
I started this tool for myself, but I thought it might be useful to other divers too, so I published it.

The goal was to build a simpler, easier-to-use version of Democracy Hub's stats and simulator.

Features
Damage Falloff

https://reddit.com/link/1x94zci/video/r5r9ya2um8wh1/player

Basically, it shows damage falloff over distance, as the name says, with adjustable pellet/shrapnel counts.
When using shotguns or explosives with shrapnel, I always wondered how much damage I'd actually deal depending on how many pellets hit, but I was too lazy to calculate it myself, so I made this feature.

Explosion Details

https://reddit.com/link/1x94zci/video/pn8mrphrm8wh1/player

An easy way to check how damage decreases with distance from the center of an explosion.

Breakpoint Hits Simulator

https://reddit.com/link/1x94zci/video/h5edk3emm8wh1/player

As it name, it show target parts breakpoints with weapon from setup in ballistic function.
Pellets/shrapnels adjust from Damage Falloff is also applied in breakpoint as well.

How Damage Falloff Was Tested

https://reddit.com/link/1x94zci/video/af6buqf2n8wh1/player

To be honest, I'm not good at data mining the game client. So I just tested the weapons I use a lot in-game myself, and used AI to back-calculate the results.

Tool URL : https://hd-2damage-calc.vercel.app/

It's still in development, but I'll keep updating it until I quit the game.
I'm already at 1100+ hours and still enjoying HD2, so I'm not sure quitting is even possible, tho.

All data is from the Helldivers Wiki.

My previous post featured quite an anorexic Eruptor. This time I decided to do it some justice.

And again, Super Earth didn't install a mini warp pack inside the bolt to keep it from protruding out the back. Enjoy galaxy's first ultra-compact bolt mechanism, all thanks to the efforts of the Ministry of Defense.

I'm perfectly fine with being crucified by the experts over my design. I'm a personal trainer, y'all! I make people's weight go down up.

QUESTION Fori Prime instead of Gacrux?

3 Upvotes

Hi all, I'm kinda new to the game don't have a lot of hours yet.

Saw the MO was done for now, so wanted to go help on the bug front. I saw 20k people on Fori Prime that has 2% resistance rate, and barely 2k people on Gacrux that has 1% resistance rate.

Also, and I might be wrong, but wouldn't taking Gacrux siege Fori Prime since no other bug planet would be connected to it?

Might be wrong but thanks for the help anyways!
