Bro they give the bots EVEN MORE rockets

[KsnypsAdventures]

Thank god the rocket tank isn’t six devastators duct taped to each other

[waynee]

"Thank god they dont have aimbot" exaclty my thought the moment I saw that MLT

As someone who used to play Helldivers and fell off from boredom, this update doesn't look interesting at all. Give us maps that aren't just *out in the middle of nowhere on some planet.* Give us cities or suburbs or something. Maybe make some tailored levels alongside the procedurally generated stuff as a form of more direct story delivery. And please, PLEASE make sure that the entire arsenal of weapons feels good to use. I'm tired of regretting every time I try and choose something off-meta, I'm tired of electric weapons being bugged and misfiring, I'm tired of the "nerf the fun out" mentality...

I've just been playing other games and having a better time. HD2 has unfortunately run its course for me, and the player numbers indicate I'm not alone in this.

they best be escalating our weapons, theres barely 15k people left playing

Automatons used to have a high skill curve, but were the easier faction once it was learned. Now, after the last major patch, fighting automatons is just a straight nightmare. Wave after wave of heavy devastators and berserkers soaking all your ammo while rocket troops and devs treat you to a crowd surfing simulator. It is a terrible feeling when I feel I have a better chance at 1v1ing 2 factory striders than I do taking on a bot patrol.

[hivecasts]

How much more rockets should we add to new bot units?
Game designer: Yes!

[polish_idiot]

They need to make a lot of primaries and support weapons more viable

[loganberkheimer]

Can't wait for the support weapon ammo ship module to break again when this drops 😂

[taitcarrillo]

Rocket spam and ragdolling is the biggest issue on the bot front, so why the HELL are they adding more rocket enemies.

[re_mann]

wtf is the amour value of the big tentacles gonna be lmao

[paparoach]

“since launch we’ve improved HD quite significantly” Are we playing the same game?

“What would the galaxy be like without planets?” Shows the same planet we’ve had but with rain? we had that but okay yea

[IWARWLFI]

New enemies seem great, but they all seem like types that are basically immune to primaries.
So the new difficulty might just make our non support weapons feel even more like peashooters (aside from a few exceptions) if they dont change the enemy composition.

Surely more enemies, means more fodder enemies that can be killed by primaries and not just more chargers, right?

[KylewithaK]

Players, we’ve heard your concerns about ragdolling against the bots. We’ve added even more rockets to the enemy’s arsenal.

[Arxeon.]

If they want to make the bots more fun I say make it so the bots need to call in ammo resupplies for their rockets.
That way it is
1) Brought in line with the same restrictions us helldivers have to abide by.
2) Provides a tactical opportunity to potentially deny bot resupply drops by blowing up the ships and supply caches.

[Lazypal]

"when can gas strike get that bonus though" was great honestly, if there is a thing to post ideas for buffs I think that would be a cool thing to add to it

[monkukudagod]

"Ya do X, Ya get Y and Y...is GOATED drip"

THAT WAS SO SIMPLE AND SO POETIC.

[MitchConnorZ]

"bringing back a fan favorite from HD1"

lol as an OG of Helldivers i'll tell you that no one liked those tentacles

[D-S-G.]

Variants is probably the best way to put difficulty without just adding more and more enemies to difficulties. However I really hope Variants arent spammed, like lets say normal Scout Striders stop appearing in Difficulty 8 and its just all Rocket Striders. It should be a dozen or so of the many Striders per mission.

[telesiak]

i Just hope we get buffs and some new toys to get those new enemies down, becasue atm they are very proud of making the game even more difficult with nothing ready for players
