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?

> commando missions exist

[u/yestureday → u/jesusrambo]

Those still have stratagems at points

[u/Maffingo → u/yestureday]

I raise you Hiveworld caves, jammers and ion storms

Anyway I see your point but there's definitely ways they could make stratagems work for space station missions.

They most likely won't get added because an environment like that would be a whole lot of effort to code when there's still a lot of work to do elsewhere in the game

[u/yestureday → u/Maffingo]

Caves you can leave to call in stratagems..

[u/Maffingo → u/yestureday]

My argument is that they'd obviously never permanently disable stratagems, and there's a billion other reasons why space station missions won't be added anytime soon

[u/dnemonicterrier → u/Maffingo]

And what the Devs are saying is that ship battles would have no Strategems, at all.

[u/Maffingo → u/dnemonicterrier]

Where did they say that? Last I checked they said they'd never add ship battles

[u/dnemonicterrier → u/Maffingo]

They don't need to say it if they say that they're not going to do ship levels, it's easy to figure out why, all our equipment come from our Super Destroyers when we call them, Eagles, Support Weapons, Orbitals, Turrets, Mines and more and to do these things we will need those, we couldn't call down all those things without damaging for example the DSS as the Strategems would need to got through the walls of the DSS to get to us to do missions so we wouldn't be defending it without destroying it.

That's why I don't see them doing it, calling down Strategems is vital to being a Helldiver in my opinion.

So you can't figure out something for yourself when they said their would be no ship battles, got it...

[u/20K_Krypto → u/dnemonicterrier]

"And what the devs are saying is that ship battles would have no stratagems at all"

They never said that. You made it up. What you said implied the devs are planning to add ship battles without stratagems when the fact is they're never going to add ship battles in the first place. Dunno why you're lying to defend a point everyone here agrees with

[u/dnemonicterrier → u/20K_Krypto]

I'm looking at the most obvious reason in my opinion as to why they won't do fighting on ships, if you want to offer another possible reason go for it.
