To quote a teammate:

too far to see

too deep to cross

just close enough to get team killed by an arc thrower

Inspired by rumors of the Charlie Kirk being shot for not being right enough, maybe the next enemy should be fashists arguing super earth is too soft in the galactic war.

I played the Extreme difficulty for the first time today and oh boy was I not ready for it.

The jump in difficulty was rather extreme and I’m mostly wondering how I deal with the bugs coming up from under the ground?

Also, the red bugs are hard to kill, because my bullets are not strong enough. Which weapon do you recommend?

500KG bomb code on a bullet casing... come on my dude.

I just want to take a moment to appreciate the incredible soundtrack of Helldivers 2, composed by Wilbert Roget. The music is absolutely phenomenal. It captures the intensity, heroism, and chaos of the game perfectly.

From the thunderous orchestral themes that fuel your adrenaline during missions, to the more atmospheric tracks that build tension and immersion, Roget's score elevates the entire experience. It feels cinematic, epic, and deeply tied to the identity of Super Earth.

Anyone who doesn't own this soundtrack yet, shame on you!

Edit:

It seems that there's something wrong with the power profiles on the Framework 16. If the power profile is either "Balanced" or "Performance" it runs like shit, but if I put it in "Power Save" mode, the game runs just fine... I think it might have something to do with the USB-C charger for the Framework 16 not providing enough power??

Greetings Helldivers!

I recently acquired a Framework 16 with the AMD RX 7700S, coming from an Asus Strix laptop with an 3070 ti.

AFAIK those two GPU's should be fairly similar, with the 3070 ti pulling ahead a little. However, the performance on the 7700S is abysmal IMHO in Helldivers 2.

I realise that Helldivers 2 is notorious for being badly optimised, but with the 7700S I'm literally under 20 FPS most of the time. This is with the absolut lowest settings in the game.

With the 3070 ti, I saw a solid 45+ FPS.

I'm rocking CachyOS with:

  • kernel version 6.16.5-2-cachyos
  • KDE Plasma 6.4.4
  • Wayland
  • 64GB RAM
  • Proton-cachyOS

Steam launch options: mangohud game-performance %command%

Any ideas? I'm tempted to try it out on Windows as well, to see if the performance is just utter crap with the 7700S or if Helldivers 2 simply doesn't play well with AMD GPU on Linux.

So I found out during the Spore Lung Missions where the main lung is behind deep water and a destructible bridge, you can still destroy the lung with a hellbomb pack. We successfully did so after a brave patriot sacrificed themselves by activating the hellbomb and throwing themselves into the deep water moat.

Also... Love how the hellbombs will spawn on the outside but on top of the lung. A brave soul has to die so a helldiver can land on the surface and retrieve it.

Edit: Found the entrance. It's in the tunnel with the lung tube... Took 2 more missions to find it. Kept missing it.

I swear theyre moving faster underground, even the massive chargers... How?

I want to go home

Edit: it seems in my panic I was mistaken. Everything ELSE burrows while stalkers do their thing. So youre getting ambushed in 3 dimensions now.

Glad to see they may have fixed rover audio issue.

Not so much with fixing Adreno-Defibrillator in the walker. I've done it once. Hard to pull it off and it's probably not very exploitable.

Helldivers 2 hilariously shows the tricks bad-faith lawyers use to quietly turn democracies into authoritarian military regimes

For the new recruits, the last president died during the unprovoked Illuminate attack on Super Earth.

"The President died heroically, defending the Presidential Security bunker with only a pistol against waves of Illuminate foes."

The last time High Command increased our Reinforcement Budget was when the DSS gunner tried to kill us with 380mm barrages. These fresh recruits got it easy.

The ODST crossover, I mean. I've seen news posts about it here, but nothing posted after the ODST warbond dropped.
So, whatcha think about it?

M90A shotgun

I've played 95% of my free time during my elementary school years on Halo 2 with my cousin, and to me the M90A (known to me as "Scodinciocio" (don't ask (actually yes ask that's half my childhood))) is probably the most iconic item in the warbond.
... meh? I've played with it once before the game booted me out due to a network error (overloaded servers, probably), but I expected it to be the first non-slug 3-pen shotgun ever; alas, the AR is 3-pen despite my expectations while the M90A seems to be just a faster reloading 2-pen shotgun.
Having played Halo 3 multiplayer for an embarassing amount of time, I see the shotgun as a "get close to an overseer and FUCKING SEND THEM" kinda weapon, but that doesn't seem to be the case.

M45C ar

Too good.
Not according to HD2's balance, mind you, but I recently had a Halothon with the aforementioned cousin - we played every Halo from CE to Reach on legendary diff within 2 days - and the AR (= the M45C) was the "ugh, this is what I respawn with? fine, I'll manage" weapon, consistently through all the 5 games having it.
Surprisingly, it DOES work in Helldivers, at least to someone who's played with the Eruptor for 80% of their playtime and who knows what they're missing by not doing that.
The point is, this weapon is probably more effective in Helldivers 2 than in any good Halo game (= every Halo game released before Halo 4), which H3:ODST falls into. And I think it's nice, about damn time.

M7S smg

I'll use it because nostalgia, but... ehhhhhhhhhhhhh.
Amirite?
I mean, it *looks* cool, but... ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
I'll take the M45C instead, unless I care about having a nice looking gun in my hand because tbh this SMG looks so hot I feel like E̸̘̺͍̲͐͋̌͊͋̔́̍͗͛͗͒͗̋͝c̷̨̞̥͔̙͈̩̱͖̳͂͜g̸̡̢̛̯̟̜͔͍̔̃̒͒̾̇̓͛̄̌̅̀̈̚j̶̦̺̖̥̘̦͈̫̘̙̩͊̽͜H̶̡̡̡̨̛̲̰̟̖̉̀͑̐͒̈́̔̅̈́̈́͌̈̚͜/̵̡̗̖͓̭͈̤̹̖̻̫̿͋̀͊̾̊̓̊̕͜ͅL̶̢͙̠̼͉̰̩̤̥̹̭̺̖͖̯͊C̴̜̒̃͋̎͋ͅͅl̷̢̛̻̙̐̎̌̏̆͒̉͊̊̒͐͑͐͠͝ž̸̛̺͙͉̠̒͆̊̋̄͊̅̅̚͘͘͝ͅB̸̧̧̨̫͙̯͎̺̝̯̪̖̮̤͙̰͙̀̓͑̔͒͑̇́̈́͠/̶̵̳̞̬͍̝͔̹̯̣̣̞̫̥̹͙̬̮̖̘̞̙̜͉͆̄̽͐͛͒́̀͑͆̈̃̽͠/̸͍͈͔͓̤̰̣̟̥̩̑̑ͅ9̷̡̜͕͓̖̣͔͔̍̌͌̊́̿̀̊̊̋̎̇̏̚͝͝8̸̨̨̡̍̌̈ͅý̵̖̩̱͓͇̦̾̀̐̐̀͌́͐͘͘͝r̷̻̝̣̩̝͎͈̝̩̭̅̀̌̀̊͜k̸̡̢̢̛̮̣̭͈̳͇̦̳̀̒̄̆͜͜i̴̧̮͖̞͇͓͚̙̭͙͙̙̱̭̘͊͆̈̏̆͋̂͐̎̂͆̚͝h̸̨̛̰̦̪͚̱̱̳̺̫̪̺̣͉̤͚̒͋̀̍̒͛͋̀̾̌̑̾́̉̽͠z̵̞͓̬̥̑͋̊̉̇̽̇́̄͘͘̕3̵̢̡͔̪̫̦̼̤̯̞̺͕̇̓̋͊̀͘͝͝ͅ2̷͚̥̥̈́̓̈́̇̑͂̀͌̽̿Ņ̷͈͍̣̰̬̓̎̌͑̓̽͐̔̓͋̕̚̚͠ḏ̴̨̬̰̹̼̻̀́͌̊̀̉̉̿͝ͅt̵̛͇͓͚̝̥̫͂̑̎̄͒̽͘͘ͅp̶͍͎͂͊̿̋̓̎̎̿͘̚Ȟ̶̙̒̓̽͐̎͋̆̃̐͋̑̑͑̉͝g̵̨̨͔̺̭̩̤̜̝̠̲̙̓͆͑̕r̸̰͙̳̄̇̐̈́̎͒̋̾̾̚0̵̨̦̹̠̩͔͚͙̤̼̳͈͚̟̍͊́͜ͅl̴̡̗̘͎͚̠̜͒̈́͂͠Ṙ̵̲͓̯̹̐̓͑̂̈́̽́̇̆͌̋̈̌́͝ý̶̢̢̛̖͙̗̠̪̲̮̠͖͑̃̉̑͗̏͘͝q̴̨̡̛̜̝̪͉̗̭̬̺̼̙͚̑̀̒̓̈́̐̽̋̆͊̕͜y̸͖͉͇̠͉̘̩̲̆̍̌̈̿̕̚͘͘̚͝ͅơ̶͍̘̬͖̭̱͍̤̮͍̈́̊̑̃͆͒̿͘͠͠č̴̢̨͈̩̪̦̯̦̳͙̻͜P̶̡̛͚̘̪͇̖̯͎̲̹͕̳̜͓̈̇͛̇̊̋́̀͐̕͠h̸̡̛̯̜̗͙̥͍̪̃̓̀̀̋̓̽̈́̅̎͋͌͛̏̕͝p̴̨̧̲̗͖͕̮͕̪̗͎̭̤̽̔͜P̷̡̟͎̪̙͔̣̠͔͖͇͕͇̯̼̘̀̽̇̔́̉̌̊́̃͝ļ̵̠̣́͝ẖ̷̢̢̢͓̲͇̼̭͓̺̘̗͚̪̫̄̈G̸̜̯͉̝̤̝̫̣̠͎̼̣͕͚̬̒̂͒̄̓̅͑͠ͅŗ̸̢̠̼̪̻̼̙̜͖̱̬͋̆̊̏̓͆̓́̂̑̈̈́̈̾͌͘͝X̸̨̛̪͈͔̘̹̗̗͋͐̓̒͛̿̕ṯ̸̢͇̱͓͇̝̙̇̏̅͋̒̍͠͝Ş̷̛̤͉̞̖̯̤̗͓̈̀̈̀͐̈́̽͒̍̃͋̽͗̕̕Z̷̧̡̺̜̙̺̲̼̗̜̼͖̹̥͍̯̪͆F̷͖̺̮̻̹͗̀4̵̯͎͎̪̩̳͔̬̰͍̄͊̍͗̾̈́̈́̈̎́͆̚͠͠͝ͅT̶̳͉̜̟̝̏́͆̒̍̀̅̈́̉͑͌ͅǪ̷̩̖̳̠̓̍͌̃̔́͌͝ͅx̶̙̖̮͉̔͒͗͐̂S̷̹̠̩̜̯̟͕͕̺̣͑͐͑͗͆́̔͝x̸̲͎͔̰͔̣̭͍̤̬̠͛g̷͎̳͔͉̖͕̦̯̖͂͑̋̏͗̄͂̉̀͋̚̕͝ͅw̴̢̻͖̗͕͖͙̯͎̬̳̗̪̱͈̤̗̓̎͂͛̒͋̒̃̆͂͝8̴̮̪͖̳̖͇̫̪̞̯͎̪̲̖̠̽̈m̵̬̣͊͗͗͗̓̇̕͠f̷̢̪̜̭̖̅͋̇̀̊̓͂́̓͗̂̚͝r̶̨͚͚̮͚͎͓̲̘͍͙͉͓̻̫͇̆̿̀͑͆͒͒̂̐͆̔̏̿͋̃ͅḋ̴̨̨͙̮̣͎͉̻͍̣̙͚̞͖̖+̶̧͍̜͂̒̓͂́̍̓̽̄́̒̆͘͝͠s̵̢̮͙̦̬͎̞͛Ĵ̵͙̲̟͉̙̠͍̹̪̬̺͚̩̪͛͂͒̉̊̎͋̇͘͜͝͝/̸̨̞̬̩͖̬̲͎͕̹̤̐͆̃̒̾̉͘3̵̧̡͖̳̺̘̜̦̩̟̟͚̪͉͖͐́̔͆̍̊́͑̍͌̽̅̎̀͘͜E̵̢͙̯͇͉͇̱̺̯͙̍̓̽͐̊͛̊̋͆̅͐̐̓̊͘͠p̴̧̤̺̞̬͚̳͍̠͉̤͙͍̺͉̣̍̀̊̾̔́̐̃̈́͌̄͠j̷̧̧͕̤͕͕̹̰̝̜̻̣͚̓̂̀̉͋͐͊͗͂͋̕ͅc̸͓̞̭̙̖̬̹͖͔͕̭̻̩̩̃͋̉̔ͅy̸̩͉̺͙̺̣̝̬̩̻̟̦͈̣̮͒̀̎͌͗͗͒̄̇̕L̶̛͓̘̪͊̿̑̏͋͆̈́̀͝͠͝d̸̢͔̹̪̗͎̯̠̠͔̩̦̯̳͖͇̓̊̒̐̀̿̂̒͠m̶̢̨̪͎̥͇̳͇͇̻͚̭̈́͌̿͋́̚P̸̨̛̙͈̩͉̖̞̦̮̤̌͆̓̎͆̅̅̀̈́̈́͒̎͠ͅB̷̙̳͎̱̎̌̄̇̈́̈́̂̈́͗̿̈́̆̓f̵̡̨̢̛̺̯̹͓̜͙͔͈̲̭̂́̉̚ͅm̴͍̳̭͈̓̐̎̏̈́̌̔̚3̵̧̨͖̰͖̣̞̠̣͔̀̇̓̉̐̀̽̃̒͆͒̑̂̋͝͝͠8̶̨̧͓̼̼̺͉͕͇̱͉̜̳̖͈̬̤͗́̋̇̎̐̓̾̀́͋͌͌G̵̪̭̈́̈́̏̀͐ẁ̸̧̧̢̙̥͓͉̜̹̥̜͖͈͎̊̑͂͑́̓͒͝.

M6C/SOCOM

I haven't unlocked it yet. Sorry, no comment from me, feel free to write your own.

Mean Green skins

I don't personally like them over the fire-themed ones (pyromaniac speaking here), but do YOU know what the name of these skins is a reference to? Come on, oust yourself either as a Halo noob (like me) or a no-life Halo fan (like me), I dare you. And if you can answer, go play ODST on legendary RIGHT FUCKING NOW IMMEDIATELY THAT'S AN ORDER DIRECTLY FROM THE SUPER EARTH MINISTER OF UNITY GET MOVING SOLDIER.

A-9 Helljumper armor

best in the game, fite me 1v1 on rust (idc about the passives)
Sorry !BussyGyatt@feddit.org, I fell for it, I hope you can forgive me.
