The Automatons in Helldivers 2 have a Design Problem (Please read the pinned comment)
Original Description: I do not believe that there exists anything such as a 'bugdiver' or a 'botdiver.' There are simply people with a higher tolerance of annoying mechanics. Let's talk about why my favorite faction can be so unfun.
Edited Description: I no longer agree with the points made in this video. Please read the edited portion of the pinned comment for more information as to why.

    i mean, isnt scorch the ronin counter?, like what would a ronin do to a decent scorch?, fight him with short range weapons against a titan that basically decimates anyone on short range?, not even the sword block can really avoid scorch damage, you either try to protect from the thermite or the heatshield and if the scorch uses the thermal armor modification then the bastard cold just stand on its own fire

    Hot take: monarch would be way more fun to fight against as more titans if her XO-16: sniper configuration aegis upgrade from frontier defense (with some tweaks of course) replaced arc rounds, and have the arc rounds be exclusively a frontier defense aegis upgrade.

    I personally partially agree with your views (in the video) The bots do feel quite sudden at times (I usually go in melee using the lance and directional shield) and i never know if i can get in close through running or if i should keep letting the bots possibly just get away by walking backwards. The devastators are the biggest problem to me currently due to their sudden attacks that are with a delay, it can be pretty annoying- Now, i am a VERY bad player (I only play on like- around medium difficulty on day missions because i hate not being able to see) but the little i've done on harder missions has been pretty annoying-

    I main Ronin and I think I don't deserve heaven either. 2x arc waves 2x smokes and battery loadout. The combos to drain enemy titan HP are endless. My personal favorite is to drop smoke mid-phasedash through them while they are stunned in tight corridors. Just for extra mayhem and distraction.

    I would argue a good Northstar pilot counters Ronin. If you have good map knowledge and you know there’s a Ronin in play you can avoid the parts of the map where you know he’ll be hanging out and instead set up lines of sight to poke him. Once you’ve drawn his ire you can predict which path he’ll come to try to fuck you and you can prepare tether traps to bait out his phase dash before popping your core.

    The reason people hate playing against Tone is because she is way too overpowered against pilots. Compare her 40-Millimeter cannon to Ion's laser shot. The 40-Millimeter cannon deals the same amount of damage to pilots, but it is magazine fed, has no cooldown, has splash damage, and there is no punishment for missing your shot. The range on tones cannon is also comparable to Northstars range.

  • @quocle7304

    Do you, the player, has any telegraph animation when shooting something? The bots are legit war machines, the western front is an actual war front where both sides try to promote their ideology. You should not compare it to those dumb bugs in the dumb safari keep getting breach due to those incompetent zoo keeper.

  • @hoanglinhvu106
    @hoanglinhvu106 2 місяці тому

    the bots front is supposed to simulate a fight against a trained army. Do we telegraph our next attack to them? No. I understand the frustration of dying out of nowhere, but that's also the highlight of the bots front. Here's my tips to somewhat counter the problem: always assume the worse. You see a reinforced strider? Look for cover because it might shoot you with a rocket. Gunship? it could have been worse, imagine it shoot flashbang grenade at you, the read light is nothing, and you can kinda visualize its shape so it isn't much of a problem

    Look i see your pinned comment. But i want to give some advice to see if it would help you in your future battles against the Bots. No idea how you play now but i did put some notes about your playstyle biased on video. Try using the Shield Generator Relay Station, mobile cover for when you are in the middle of an empty field, on the MO or need to use a terminal without being rag dolled or shot at, its also good for Evac and has a short cooldown. Call it in last after all other call downs as Hellpods will break it. Shield Backpack is ... ok but you will get a bigger hitbox due to the shield being bigger than the Helldiver. Which will lead to more Ragdoll due to rockets. Not i stratagem i use against the bots. Use Medium or Heavy armor, yes this will feel strange, slow and annoying. However Medium and Heavy will let you tank more than 4-5 standard shots to the chest and with Fortified Perk, you will take so much more less damage from a Striders Rocket which you can survive if you for heavier armor. 4:17 Example I noticed you tend to stay in more open locations when shooting, yes you take cover but you leap out of it to shoot quite often. 4:04 and 5:39 is a good example, you had cover and can shoot over it but you walk out of cover before you took a shot, twice. before dying. No idea what weapon you use against the bots since the update but i like the Purifier even before the changes since the Charged up shots do massive AOE and Stagger all units up to Hulk and above ( cant stun Hulks, simply using it as a profile ). Striders take 2 shots in the crotch with the Senator now too, quick way to dispatch them. Hope this will help you out there against the Bots. I like fighting against them more than the Bugs in recent times, everyone has their preferences and playstyle which i like that about this game.

    on one hand, it's poor design, but on the other hand, i think it is kind of cool that the bot front is close to a 'true equal' war. the bots are truly a formidable enemy! they want to win the war, why would they make it obvious what they're about to do?

    Honestly, i would fix very little things with the automaton. (At least for team fights, not solo). If you position right and know the shoot timings(if you try a bit you can actually "feel" the moment the turrets and tanks will shoot) everything will be alright. What i would change is the little shitty animation that the dropships do before disembarking ..... dodging my shots everytime. (Ps: you do not need the shield against the bot. Even at level 8. 9 or 10 is different, i need to get better to know.)

  • @prasepe8745
    @prasepe8745 2 місяці тому

    While I got used to some of the points you've made with regards to bot front, I totally agree that units that use white rocket (barrager and strider) should either have an indicator that they are about to fire (as for striders the indicator could potentially be only for when they're about to fire a white rocket, not the lasers) or the rockets need a nerf. I feel like the only way I die on bot front are these rockets. Another thing is that striders spawn in MASSIVE waves, to me, they should mix the spawn rates of regular reinforced strider and the normal one, making the reinforced one sort of elite unit. I also love the idea of enemy randomizer needs to be introduced so badly that I'm very happy someone finally mentions it. On bug front, I'm mainly using Stalwart and when the game gives you entire map full of bile spewers, it makes some of the weapons almost completely useless, leaving you hoping that you either end up on map where it spawns millions of smaller enemies or you're screwed.

  • @thememeilator2633
    @thememeilator2633 2 місяці тому

    As a counter to this i would say that most of the enemies you listed do no need Telegraphing because they appear in such large amounts. If you step out of cover or break formations with your team and get pinned that's your fault. The Bots are mean to be an onslaught of artillery, rockets and gunfire so you need to employ guerrilla tactics to beat them. That is warfare 101 and works in a multitude of shooter games and this game is no different. Also all of the games you showed at the beginning are hack and slash games that have mechanics designed around maintaining a grip on each fight. Helldivers doesn't and shouldn't have a method of perfection.
