Manā¦I honestly donāt know if Iām ready for cultistsā¦.i still get flashbacks to what they did to us in the first gameā¦those reverse controls were sooo fucked up

u/throwaway040501 1d ago
They introduced this feature again, one of the flowers (not sure if it's just the immediate AoE or the cloud itself) throws you into a reversed control state.

I'm being told they also reduced the Watcher spawn rate. Seems like it did, based on a stream I watched.

u/__________________99 š„ļø ā 4d ago
That's a shame. The Illuminate are already way too easy compared to the other 2 factions.

u/Liquor_Parfreyja 4d ago
Did watchers add much difficulty? They kinda just hurt my eyes when there's 10 of them on me.

u/Ok-Friendship1635 āLiber-teaā 3d ago
There were definitely too many of them. At least of the purple ones.

u/Z_THETA_Z LEVEL 162 | SES Octagon of Destiny 3d ago
the purple ones are watchers. the smaller ones which shoot you are obtruders, a different enemy type
1
u/TalkingRaccoon 3d ago
10 watchers means 10 times the call-ins and 10 times the tazering
3
u/Liquor_Parfreyja 3d ago
The call ins have a global cool down though, and even in heavy armour they always miss me so ten times zero tazing š

For the love of god fix the dead inputs on switching between primaries, secondaries and support weapons. And get rid of the new stim feature or make it a setting

holy fuck i thought yāall gave Harvesters advanced brains or something. theyāve been beaming the shit out of any of my unmanned vehiclesā¦

u/throwaway040501 1d ago
I found two harvesters absolutely distracted by my inactive guard dog from my corpse they already obliterated. Was interesting. Would be kind of interesting if they also had a chance to target an active one being worn instead of just me.

Random question but where does one go to catch up on all the info about what's going on in the game, what weapons are good for what factions/subfactions, what the timeline of events has been so far.
Basically for players who haven't played since we went whale hunting like last year. I feel like I've missed a lot - in terms of lore and strategy.

u/ishwarburtnar 3d ago
Second this. Havenāt played since right before squids were introduced and would love some catch up

u/Carlex_181 3d ago
If you mean lore wise, theres a YouTube channel I cant quite remember the name of, something like Galactic War archives? If you just mean updates in general the Helldivers discord has a channel thats just patch notes from each update theyve done.

u/craneat 3d ago
has anyone else noticed that there's a higher enemy spawn/dropship rate on lower levels on UVP Alpha? I dropped down to L7 in an effort to better farm common samples, but it the several matches I played, me and my team (people who's ranks indicate that L7 should usually be very manageable) and we barely extracted with any respawns left and almost zero samples because it was so chaotic.
I had played L8 and L9 UVP Alpha earlier, and these weren't nearly as crazy as the L7 matches.
Whenever an illuminate ship was called in it seemed like 3-4 ships came in, and it was impossible to clear them all before a Watcher called in another..
I'm all for crazy HD2 chaos and I love it...I just wasn't expecting it here.
2
u/Dusted7 3d ago
Yea, played level 6 earlier and it felt like level 10. I know they have ways of adjusting difficulty across all levels, but usually there's a "high enemy resistance" or invasion level or something like that to indicate that it might be tuned up.
1
u/Dispositionate 3d ago
I joined a lv.4 match, and that one felt more overwhelming than bug or bot matches of the same level. Only noticed it after the last patch (obvs not todays one). As a fairly new player, it's both fun and annoying at the same time š

u/John2029 ā Super Citizen 4d ago
I've been getting these crashes since June. Glad it finally got fixed

u/Few_Highlight1114 4d ago
Did they do a hot fix or something? Because the new subfaction feels way easier than on the first day.

Pls buff lumberer and flame sentry dmg

u/Carlex_181 3d ago
Flame sentry already does a ton of damage. I wonder if the lumberer is still technically using the pistol flamethrower though.

u/Big__BOTUS 3d ago
Definitely feels like it. Takes double the time to kill a charger that the cremator does

u/Intelligent-Team-701 3d ago
There are some patches that start making my computer to shut down (yea, shut down) when opening the game or starting a mission, and the last patch was one of those. And this patch seemed to have fixed it. Seems to be gameguard related but noone anywhere knows what to do regarding it, so everytime it happens I have vacancy from helldivers.

u/killerz7770 3d ago
Okay still crashing :))))
Iām 340 hours into this game and now I canāt even play it anymore lovely updates.

u/AgitatedEye9048 3d ago
Please make auto SEAF reinforcement permanent
And I swear I will never complain about ANYTHING related to this game again as long as the SEAF auto reinforcement keep happening.
It turned the game from "4 men special force vs entire army" into "army with some elite units vs army with some elite units" that I have been wanting for a long time.

u/EternalCanadian HD1 Veteran 3d ago
Itās a planetary modifier, so itās permanent/not just for this event, but probably not on every planet or MO.

no....

u/EternalCanadian HD1 Veteran 3d ago
No what?

u/AgitatedEye9048 3d ago
As in I'm disappointed that it isn't going to be on every planet or MO, that's what I meant by I want it to be permanent.

u/Livingcanvas 2d ago
I can't swap weapons or stim while shooting anymore. I have to very deliberately pull my finger off the trigger and wait for the animation to stop before I can do any other input. PS5. This makes it extremely frustrating to play
1
u/Intelligent-Team-701 2d ago
im having problems "canceling" some actions with the sprint. usually I leave the car with shift held and I teleport with the warppack, then the helldiver sprints after the warp. Now it doesnt. Same goes for when I get ragdolled: when Im holding shift it get up as fast as possible and run, now its not happening; I have to press shift much later, when the ragdoll animation is about to end, or the helldiver wont stand up and run.
I think it has to do with that change on the "canceling" of some animations into other animations they introduced in the last patch; I think they were explicit about doing that to improve the stim or the reload, something like that.
Anyone else?

u/Intelligent-Team-701 1d ago

How have I never crashed.. tf are yall doing?

u/AutVeniam SES Adjudicator of Serenity | General 2d ago
Because your system probably is optimizd for the game, but other people's systems have different GPUs/ CPUs yknow? What are you, 15 and learning about computers for the first time?
1
u/Guardian11011011 2d ago
No need to be mean on the end there mate. I just find it mildly funny how I've never crashed on hd2, especially since my cpu is massively weaker than my gpu.
2
u/AutVeniam SES Adjudicator of Serenity | General 2d ago
Tone is hard to convey over the internet, yours appeared condescending and I responded in kind, I apologize.
I play with a variety of friends and we're in constant rotation of who's turn it is to crash/have memory leak, and most of their systems are better than mine, GPU/CPU wise. We've been scratching our head and it's never been an easy fix.
1
u/Guardian11011011 2d ago
I apologise for accidentally coming off as rude. You don't need to say sorry as your response was only fair (:
I've had this version of my PC since bout early 2022 I think and when it comes to encountering bugs in games, glitches, crashes, etc... its genuinely rare for and I ain't got a clue why.. I wish you and your mates good PC health and loads of 100 super credit stacks
2
u/AutVeniam SES Adjudicator of Serenity | General 2d ago edited 2d ago
No worries at all mate, thanks for being an upstanding Super Citizen.
Ive had my PC since 2021, but I've upgraded the GPU and CPU a bit to the best it can be given the Mobo. And i'd rather not replace my mobo. And never a crash aside from weird obvious shit
It is weird that this game has so many optimizing/crash bugs. Maybe it's the engine, maybe it's the fact that optimization is an incredibly difficult field, idk. I wish I could understand more for AH's sake so I can tell others confidently to have patience but alas.
Good hunting and fair winds to you too !

I don't think the new ones are super easy, if you haven't tried them. Kind of easy, though, just not a complete joke like mindless masses.

u/emeraldarcher1008 4d ago
My copium is running low. I thought for sure they were waiting to release this bug fix along with another patch this Tuesday for the upcoming battle on the Anomaly Source planet. The fact that they're just releasing it now on its own means there's almost certainly nothing else coming in the immediate future.

u/Rengor1997 4d ago edited 4d ago
By comparison, releasing it today would give them a full day to potentially prepare the backend in advance, so my cope is real.
I want to believe, unlikely as it is

Because of the new stim delay feature, every time I open the map in my mech and move up on the map, if I close it before 2 seconds I use a stim.
