Helldivers II

[tommers]

Taking down those scout walkers with an autocannon is one of life's great pleasures.

This is where the mechs are, if we bring democracy there and liberate it, the mechs will be unlocked, if we dont, the automatons will get them.

This is how updates should happen.

will be back on tomorrow evening administering freedom!

 

[tommers]

I am here now

 

[tommers]

Used a mech today. Great rocket launcher but slow and you can't use strats.

 

[Kid_Eternity]

Had a play with them last night, quite fun very good in specific situations!

Recent Helldivers 2 Termicide Update Has Serious Implications For The Soldiers Of Super Earth

There’s something weird going on in Helldivers 2.

screenrant.com

LOL.

 

[Kid_Eternity]

Random experience recently, we found a sparking body of an autonomon on Term world…

Oooohhh.

 

[Kid_Eternity]

Yeah very odd!

 

[Kid_Eternity]

Flying bugs are here, and man are they annoying!

Tell me about it. Time to equip a shotgun?

 

[Kid_Eternity]

Tell me about it. Time to equip a shotgun?

I’ve been trying that, it’s like clay pigeon shooting!

I’ve read that arc guns work, and the Gatling/ machine gun sentries are pretty decent I’ve found. Holds them back long enough to clean out the nest!

 

[tommers]

Excellent, so that's the game done then.

 

[Kid_Eternity]

Until the Illuminate turn up…

 

[tommers]

The Mission was not "Accomplished".

 

[Kid_Eternity]

The new mission is very cool.

 

[Kid_Eternity]

New war bond is live, plus a bunch of new ship modules!

 

[UnderOpenSky]

Not been on for ages but had time for a quick go recently. That new personal laser is just shit. I might be missing the point of it.

 

[tommers]

I'll probably be on this afternoon

Laser got a bit better recently. The heavier version isn't too bad.

 

[UnderOpenSky]

This was the scythe, so just one you'd start with.

Tried the heavy machine gun last night. I'm sure in the correct hands it could be deverstating but the lack of ability to aim means those hands are not mine.

Yeah it runs out of ammo so quickly. And you have to aim down the sights, which is weird. Does good damage though

 

[UnderOpenSky]

Had some more time this afternoon. If the HMG requires proper skill, then the arc thrower is the opposite. Keep charging it and spamming it and try not to take out your team mates.

Hit L15 today (I know). Got the Eagle 500kg as well. It's a mighty bang, but not quite as good as I hoped for.

 

[tommers]

Apparently Steam users have to link to a PSN account now. I had no idea that would be a requirement. I mean, I've got a PSN account but would be annoyed if I didn't.

 

[Kid_Eternity]

Yeah it’s caused a mini shitstorm, not sure it’ll be the end of the game tbh…

 

[tommers]

Yeah, not too sure about that.

I've seen people do some pretty fucking stupid things before but....

 

[Kid_Eternity]

Sony are being idiots.

 

[tommers]

When I was younger I thought that people who ran big corporations or countries must be so clever and competent.

That turned out not to be the case.

This is so fucking bone shatteringly stupid.

 

[tommers]

LOL. Dickheads.

 

[tommers]

Arrowhead though. This is EXACTLY how you handle this. Transparent, honest fucking chef's kiss mate.

 

[NoXion]

Clearly some overpaid stuffed suit at Sony thought that this would be a wizard wheeze for increasing PSN sign-ups. Hopefully the backtracking means that this has blown up in their face.
