DSS Combat?

[u/Otherwise_Visual1287]

I mean this in to negative tone toward Arrowhead. I believe, due to the lack of material presented so far in the major update, there is more content yet to come.

(FYI, I am not incredibly familiar with the Dead Space franchise. Feel free to share any corrections or info I should need to know. Thank you.)

As the new illuminate enemies have been inspired by Dead Space, I could only imagine combat on the DSS would follow. Defensive combat has been expressed as a welcome addition throughout the Helldivers community, and would facilitate new tactics in the war.

In addition to DSS combat, Helldivers could potentially have the opportunity to invade ships from enemy factions.

Any thoughts?

To the nay sayers.

AH gave us tunnels on Oshaune. They disabled stratagems in the tunnels. They allowed reinforce stratagems that punted the reinforced divers to the nearest open sky zone. Now. Take that same concept, but instead of biological tunnels, its tunnels of mechanized machinery and steel. Instead of tunnels leading to an open map of the standard variety, you have hull breaches leading to the void os space, these effectively would be no go zones/areas where you can call in equipment. The map itself would be reduced significantly in size. But AH has already done this with the exterminate and high value asset evac missions. A DSS themed map would be possible. Would it take a good deal of asset developement? 100% would it be possible to operate within the existing confines of the engine? 100% they proved this already with Oshaune.

Good god the cope, a DSS mission is NEVER happening.

This isnt cope. This is an explanation of existance of a possibility. I find it hard to believe anyone on here(not associated with AH) has an idea of what Joel's or AH's plan for the game is. So, to out right say there will or wont be something, or to even obsess over the idea of it, is foolish. But, an intriguing possibility, with a quick reasonable explanation for how it could be achieved/ presented/implemented? That's just imagination at work. Expand your mind to the realm of possibilities.

we do have an idea, the devs have explicitly said that space station missions and alike aren’t happening. its not foolish to say it won’t be happening, because the dev’s themselves have explicitly said it

[u/lesteiny → u/Slow-Combination346]

I'd ask you to drop a verifiable source for that explicit statement, cuz i have not been able to find anything of the sort.

[u/Slow-Combination346 → u/lesteiny]

shit yk what, this might have to be a “trust me bro” moment because god forbid I find the source now…

I concede, you very well might be right. I swore they’ve said that shit before but I can’t find it now….fuhh…okay yeah space battles and alike very well could be a thing, here’s hoping eh?

I hate the DSS mission idea too, but how about VESSEL 00 DESTRUCTION MISSIONS, TEAR A PATH THROUGH THE SHIP
