I have a feeling the next war bond in June plus the patch being pushed to the second week of june means we are getting a big update.
However I hope they put a lot of balance and bug fixing in because right now the game is not as fun as it used to be.
Also going against The Illuminate with the current spawn rate, and weapon balance would just result in a bigger outcry from the community then the Bots.

We finished our first Helldive difficulty operation yesterday on Vernen Wells. Was a tough ride but the 250% XP in the end is worth it.

Playing in middle with friends. Lots of deaths, but hopefully we will get better.

Finally getting some decent cosmetics. Also, the level design in that trailer is fire!HD2 is supposed to be at SGF. So good chance the new enemy faction drops later this week. The game desperately needs some big content updates

Nah the 3rd faction imo is still months away, also the way they doing things, it wont be announced before it drops

Yeah, I like it when they stealth drop content. It's more organic. The black hole from a few days ago has to be something significant though

Best Warbond until now.

Nice to see you can choose the character skin color, and that they are now also including skins for the Pelican, Hellpod and mechs.

 

[Blitzmangoman]

That new emote.

 

[Teh Chosen Juan]

does the game still look like garbage on the ps5? haven't touched it in months.

Can't say im a fan of the the skin revealing armors. The second emote is pretty funny though. The weapons iduuno, im not feeling it but we will see. I definitely expecting something different in the SGF trailer though.

If your the run and gun, up close and personal type player, then this bond seems to fit that bill.

 

[STARSBarry]

The discord mods for helldivers are at it again.

They never learn, I mean why would you respond to furry art with anything other them vomiting? Naturally now the Furry community are infesting the Helldivers "fanart" channel.


At least the new major order is funny, finally unlock AT mines or save a children's hospital, the hospital is winning.

 

[Mobilemofo]

I'm doing alot of charity work. Joining distress beacon alerts and helping the kids out. It feels good man. Here, take my mech and my grenade launcher, ya filthy animals.

 

[Hypereides]

Alright, dudes and dudettes, finally got the game (PS5). Whose in charge of coordinating the PS5 GAF group and who do I have to add? Would be great to smash out some matches with a few GAFfers from time to time.

[STARSBarry]

Oh no I made it into an asmon video for my reddit post lol, just call me the Tips Fedora from now on. But yeah helldivers discord is just a clown world, I'm there for the patch notes.

Asmongold is spot on about shit like this, as usual.

 

[DelireMan7]

AH ex-CEO tweet about the incoming patch "...maybe some old/new threats". Illuminist ? Or returning enemies from HD1 ?
Impalers ? Cyborg dogs ? Hivelords ? Siege tank ?

I would be very curious to see the Impalers with the new gameplay. "Tentacles spawning ! Find the Impaler quick !"

Nah they wont tease the new faction like that. Probably 1 or 2 new enemy type

I think it looks amazing.

 

[DelireMan7]

I agree with that. The patch just dropped. Let's see if some new enemies are there



Spear is finally fixed !... But it introduced a bug making it impossible to aim Fabricator... At least they acknowledge it and are working on it. Let's hope it doesn't take 4 months...

Why is my shit downloading so slow!

 

[STARSBarry]

Honestly all the changes look positive, I'm really excited to see about the changes to make rifles punch harder, the thing to keep in mind is this time they haven't done anything to nerf the existing weapons so they can say they now "comparatively" punch harder. They now just deal with shit better and my SMG's can still do what they do.

Currently at work, but looking forward to this and new warbond.

 

[[Sigma]]

Yes! a PS5 firmware update. Hopefully that fixes my issue of my PS5 randomly freezing/slowing down. I think I got a bad update back in April. Going to download it from the website and install it manually, hopefully that's the latest one as of today.

 

[Renoir]

im reading some of these notes...

I'm optimistic for the trajectory of this game with the recent changes. Many changes for the better.

• Fire tornados have had their behavior changed, they should no longer feel like they actively respond to player movement, and should move more randomly.

Yeah cuz we knew that shit was tracking us when we turned our backs to it

My group got trapped inside a bunker because the storms followed us there and kept respawning ontop of the bunker the entire storm duration. Kinda jacked.

huh. pintresting. guess i'll take another look!

It's passable, AA is fixed which helps. Only rears it's ugly head with lots of particles looking a bit blocky, especially after playing the PC version with DLSS. Also, it will be all dependent on how good your TV scaler is as well with the even integer from 1080p to 4K.

Hoping they are working on a reconstruction technique in the future instead of just straight up 1080p. Or, PS5 Pro version, maybe.

Dude we need to play together sometime.

 

[Mossybrew]

Changes look good. Really happy to see super samples on difficulty 6, since that's about the highest me and my duo buddy can reasonably do.

good to know on the AA. i'm using an LG C2. just figured they would have bumped resolution or something at this point as it's been out for a good while. was pretty shocked at how blurry/pixely it was close to launch.

As soon as I get out of my pod, all hell breaks lose. Spawns are crazy too. It seems like the difficulty actually increased lol.
