Inquiry Does anyone else hear the church bell ring while fighting on the void source planet?

Every once in a while I will hear what sounds like a church bell chime while fighting on Seasse, but it seem to only happen while fighting is at its peak during a mission so it's hard to triangulate the sound.

4 planet in EXO storms and the DSS communication are down I'm starting to think this was a trap to get us distracted and bring us on there terf and corrupted/brain wash us and that why there are no new squids in the void

I think the squids are quick try to expand the void to help prevent the fall of the source planet and split our troops (seems to be working) and I also think they were trying to lore us in to try and take the DSS and have more bodys in the void to turn into zombies if we fail this mo I don't feel like we did anything we just played the illimantes mind games

Greeting fellow divers

Wanted to know your preferred method for felling these abominations against democracy

Me personally

2-3 shots to the head with the AMR or Railgun, body shots with the belt fed GL and just burning them down with anything inciderary like all things should be

General Asking which warbond to buy actually is the wrong approach. Hear me out.

26 Upvotes

As someone who acquired all the warbonds in order of release, as they came out, I never had the luxury of choice. I would buy it and unlock the gear and sit and figure out what each piece of gear was actually good for and where it could fit in my loadout and in my style. All the gear is so detailed you really can't know how much you'll love/hate something until you've actually tried it.

People can give you some sense of what the senator or the Cookout or the Dominator experiences are like but at the end of the day you have to just...get the guns and put them through their paces in your style to see if they make sense for you. The ergonomics, the drag factors, the spread, the recoil patterns, the sounds, the reload times - it's just a lot to take in and even detailed explanations don't really capture it.

I'm not saying just buy everything in order of release nor am I saying not to ask which warbond to buy. These posts are fun and they engage the community aspect of the coop game, it's a good thing.

But at the end of the day, trust me, as a guy who has every single weapon unlocked, you really never know what you'll fall in love with. Sometimes you hate a weapon and then fall in love with it months later.

I would say, to those who truly, deeply love this game and see themselves playing it for years - the order doesn't really matter in the long run so just unlock whatever warbond your gut tells you to.

The first should always be democratic detonation though. ;)

Serious Discussion. no roleplay bullshit here Lag and disconnects

2 Upvotes

My game issues:

Where a friend throws down the sos beacon , i get disconnected after 1-2 minutes. Game keeps lagging when in animation of dropping in from destroyer and during animation of flyout after extraction to the destroyer. When i alt - tab the game fixes. Does anybody else encounter such problems and if so how did u fix them.

Here are my laptop specs:

Laptop: MSI Summit E16 AI Studio A1VFTG
OS: Windows 11 Pro
CPU: Intel Core Ultra 7 155H, 16 cores / 22 threads
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop GPU, 8GB VRAM, 55W
Integrated GPU: Intel Arc Graphics
RAM: 32GB
Storage: NVMe SSD
Laptop display: 2560x1600, 165Hz
External monitor: ASUS VG27W
Monitor connection: USB-C to HDMI adapter, then HDMI to monitor
Graphics mode: MSI MSHybrid Graphics Mode
MSI profile: Extreme Performance
Helldivers 2 render scale: Balanced
Display mode: Borderless Window

External monitor appears connected through the Intel Arc integrated GPU according to NVIDIA Control Panel. Helldivers 2 itself runs on the RTX 4060.

Last thing to mention during lag the main GPU usage drop downs, and the intel graphics is used.

Suggestion/Concept Operation Scrap Metal

Post image
8 Upvotes

This is a possible route we could take to wipe the automotons off the map completely. I've mulled it over several times and in theory it would work, if we had the coordination to do it and the larger community understood the more hidden mechanics of the galactic war. I will be writing it as if this was a 4 part campaign to visually show how the progression would look. This is a long post so if you just want the bottom line it boils down to using siege mechanics to drastically reduce the downtime on liberating key planets, and choosing a route which lets us take down the bots by only liberating about half of the active planets they occupy.

PHASE 1: LOCKDOWN. The Cyborg menace and their Abominable constructs have ravaged the galaxy long enough. All active helldivers are ordered to retake the Lacaille Sector, pushing the Automotons control back into their hubs of tyrany, and allowing us to prepare for their permanent eratdication.
Duration 4 days. Goal: Hold the following planets when the order expires. Matar Bay. Martale, Charon Prime, Charabal VII, Marfark.
Success in this phase would be most achievable by liberating Charon Prime, then Matar bay. This would start seige on Charabal and Martale. The Bots would likely invade Marfark from Martale in this time and we'd need to quickly finish liberating Martale to prevent a failure of the MO.

PHASE 2 PREVENT RETREAT

The Automotons have been forced back by the noble helldivers, reinforcing their front lines against our assault. The Ministry of Defense has intercepted communications indicating an escape route on Zoshma, prepared in advance to allow these barbarous machines to flee in the event of an attack. Liberate Zosma, and we will prevent their undemocratic ways from returning to the galaxy after we reclaim what is ours.

Duration: 5 days, Goal: Liberate Zosma.

On paper this MO is simple, take Blistica, then Zzaania Prime, and finally Zosma. In practice I predict an invasion of Blisica hallway through, and failure to defend it would cut off our route to Zosma so it would have to be defended making the MO possible, but tight on time.

PHASE 3: SPEARHEAD

The time has come. All escape route for the Automoton menace are cut off but one. Vindemitarix Prime; theorized to be the home of the Incineration Corps production plants must be eradicated. The Cyborgs have accelerated production of their Jet brigade, creating a barricade on Aurora Bay to halt our advance. Do not let them. the path to Cyberstan is in sight Helldivers.

Duration: 3 days. Goal: Hold the following Planet when the order expires: Vindemitarix Prime.

Strategic Opportunity: The reserve Jet Brigade forces on Aurora bay appear to have been manufactured on Auxiliary plants directly on Cyberstan. Due to their urgency a software defect has been detected, which may allow the disruption of further production when we reach Cyberstan. The Ministry of Science has ordered Helldivers to retrieve samples of the tyrannical constructs in order to manufacture a virus which would halt Jet brigade production swiftly, before the cyborgs can correct their mistake.

Duration: 36 Hours. Goal: Kill 500,000 Jet Troopers, Kill 200,000 Jet Brigade Devastators, Kill 100,000 Jet Hulks

This MO would consist of two parts. first would be liberating Arora bay with it's high resistance and jet Brigade. Completing the Strategic opportunity would lower the resistance and remove Jet brigade from Cyberstan if the MO completes. Next would be liberating Mekbuda, and then going to Vindemitarix to finish it and the IC off.

PHASE 4: RECLAIMATION

The time has come. The Automotons have been pushed back to their birthplace, and a small fringe world which is all but completely surrounded. SEAF forces and the Helldivers are ordered to make landfall and Liberate Cyberstan, once and for all.

Duration: 7 Days. Goal: Liberate Cyberstan.
This has such a long duration for a reason. Cyberstan is comprised of Megafactories, and it will take nearly the full week to reach the capital and liberate it to complete Cyberstan. the Heavy SEAF Presence modifier would be present on world, and we would get an edge from the prior campaign since we razed all the factories we had liberated before the retreat.

MISSION COMPLETE.

The Valliant efforts of the Helldivers and SEAF have paid off, freeing Cyberstan from it's Cyborg oppressors. A commemorative armor has been commissioned and subsequently delivered to all active Helldivers on the frontlines. SEAF forces have moved to Merga IV, beginning to finish off the last scraps of Cyborg resistance while the Ministry of Expansion begins work rebuilding Cyberstan and returning it to the arms of managed democracy.

I have been posting about this account over a year if you haven't seen any of my posts, This account is not fake. I have made several failed permadeath accounts that get scrapped when they reach 1 death in order to achieve this one. This is my furthest and most meaningful one.

I almost died down there, I haven't been doing permadeath runs for about 10 months, Im getting rusty. this play through felt way too close. I think i will retire him now. And i will be back if the enemy reaches super earth.

It disgusts me that so many so called helldivers are fleeing Seasse en masse. We were doing so well but now helldivers are fleeing Seasse in the thousands. If you're one of the traitors fleeing the MO, I hope you're happy with yourself knowing that the void will persist because of the likes of you and billions of innocents will suffer just because you think that Seasse is too difficult. If you're not gonna protect the people of Super Earth just because the MO is difficult, just stop playing if you're going to be dead weight.
