      @@lazybones107 I would have agreed with you if i didn't dislike fighting bugs so much, bots offer a much better challenge and i actually felt like a soldier in a war.
      And it's kinda cool in a Warhammer-like fashion that a mere moment after celebrating a major victory we get our asses kicked again.

      There are a few patches that it broke so many things it was actually more rage inducing than fun.
      The time when patrols can spawn on top of you, shit crashes all the time, nerf the shit outta the railgun without tuning anything and chargers are rampant, defense mission are ass where there are so much spawns even a 4 people team have all strategems on cooldown and still get overwhelmed.
      They are surely ironing alot of issues out especially it actually getting fun again.

    • @BackwardsPancake
      @BackwardsPancake 2 місяці тому +1

      Some times were certainly rougher than others. The first patch that messed with enemy spawns and created the "9 bile titans at once" type of gameplay loop sucked ass, but luckily the game was new so people stuck it out.
      The explosive damage oneshot fix also felt so monumental that, in retrospect, it was kind of hard to imagine that the game was bearable vs bots without it.

    Having seen the same thing many a times when modding Bethesda games, that weird red box thing at 2:00 is a collision mesh/bounding box to stop players climbing up/landing on those rocks.
    For some reason it can sometimes become visible ingame with certain game engines.
    Makes me wonder if the Helldivers engine and gamebryo share a common ancestor somewhere (or if Helldivers is using a legacy build of havok).

    Defensive missions like these where the enemy attack in waves from one direction mean you need to hold out forward in front of the gate. When you lose the front position, you retreat behind the gate and set up again while the door holds them back. I play a lot of tower defense so this strat make sense to me.

    Please share this idea I think everyone will agree. I think the studio should allow real companies to run ads on the ships TVs. The companies would have to create ads as if they were in the Helldivers universe. This would allow Arrowhead to generate more money for the studio. We would also get a ton of hilarious commercials and everyone wins. Could you image a Tide commercial where a soldier is using detergent to clean blood or oil off their armor? Or grabbing a Pizza Hut pizza after killing bugs all day? I think it’s a great idea what do y’all think?
