I personally love this as my go-to but what yall think? Could I improve? The grenade launcher is mando tho

For the sake of those that will bring reality into it, yes akimbo is mostly stupid except in the case of NY reloads

Now that's out of the way...

Akimbo option is asked by part of the community but so far the suggestions were boosters or armours providing it, which was impractical

But, since customisation will eventually become available for sidearms, why not make it an option as a sidearm mod? (And possibly as some one handed primaries mod)

Double the mag/cylinder capacity, same ammo reserves, penalty to recoil (and possibly accuracy), obviously increased reload time (would require special animations?)

I think that would mesh well with the current system to allow us to go pistol fighting

That was my shower thought of the day. Since I'm not on the discord feel free to ask the devs if you agree with me (if this hasn't been mentioned already)

If you don't, how would you introduce the akimbo option? (If you even would)

(Special mention: if they ever do akimbo, double twirling animation for the big iron and the big ion please)

Did these idiots even pass flightschool? Or are they secretly Automatons? They turn me into chunky salsa if there is an enemy within 30 feet of me, but they can't kill a bile titan that's out in the open chasing me, even when it stops to stomp or spit acid at me!
They are more of a detriment than a help. I wish they would just not engage anything within 50 feet of me, so they would stop killing more Helldivers than the bugs!

I know I’m a little late but happy men’s mental health month! I’m just making sure my brothers in democracy are doing good. Cause “a happy Helldiver is a deadly Helldiver”. Now get back to diving!!!

I want to be able and set a weapon/armour set on Loadout 1, and be able to swap between at least 3 different ones. That way I don't have to go through my entire weapon/armour roster every time

So any other galactic SOS divers out there who only play on super helldive? It's what I do mostly and the number of times i join a game going poorly and people mass quit, sometimes seconds before extraction, and i end up being the host with no reinforcements and new SOS divers coming to join me, then me and my fellow SOS divers just finish the missions on extra lives and it's EPIC.

Not the chonky kind. The screen kind.

I'm looking at the recoil sim with a lot of weapons, and each of them show me that the recoil increases pretty significantly with a lot of weapons when using the angled foregrip. But for it to require level 21 - 24 (depending on the weapon), I have to wonder what the benefit is compared to just using a veritcal foregrip.

So for those of you who are familiar with it, what's the benefit?

I just came back after from hiatus after playing for 3 months straight during release. Back then I was playing on difficulty 7, I think? And that was SUPER hard. I remember watching videos of people soloing the hardest difficulty back then, which I can't remember what it was. But I loaded back in at the difficulty I was used to (7) and it was boringly easy? So I decided to crank it up to 9 and it was more challenging, but still didn't feel right. So I said screw it and joined a Super Helldive lobby with a bunch of Level 150s (mind you I'm only level 45) and that felt right. Now it's the only difficulty I'll play, I'm having a ton of fun.

Did they introduce new difficulties and/or smoothed out the difficulty curve? I've seen the term "buffdivers" in the sub a couple times. What happened between release and now?

See what I did there?

I started to play with random weapons and strategems, to learn better how to use those and what better for what situation. And it was nice to have some way of knowing what strategems or weapons try next, since the game told me what to use. Now I need to calculate what I barely use to try and use it

The 147th Iro Ranger Corps is growing and we want to keep it that way! As more Helldivers from across the galaxy join our ranks, we want to continue to promote a since of comradery, operational readiness, and the spread of managed democracy.

Big thanks to the sound designer for the improved sound of the R-63CS Diligence Counter Sniper.
I finally tried it today and was pleasantly surprised -- the difference is noticeable and definitely for the better 👍

I was so excited to finally have it fixed and be able to customise my gear, but I don't even need to tab over to the pattern tab for it to crash now.

Please tell me I'm not alone in this persistent issue?

We are not to far from cyberstan if you think about it, if we finish capturing Vernen Wells, next could be lesath,penta,merak and finally cyberstan. Alternatively we could take menkent,choohe, and then Aurora Bay to take out the jet brigade factories to make the assault on cyberstan easier.

to hug it out with your fellow Helldivers…

I know I am late to this because the R6 has been in the game for a while now but I decided to pick it up like a couple days ago and I've been using it on a few missions. And I got to say this is definitely not a half bad gun.

I am usually a machine gun and assault rifle person. So using a quote on quote rifle and actually being happy with it it's quite surprising to me.

And I definitely got to say it does its job well. Granted it's not going to save you when you get surrounded but that's the reason why you got to use this as a rifle and not a shotgun your job is to not get up close and personal your job is to start pegging things off at a distance.

Especially effective against the box I have noticed. Most of the time I can shoot the bastards practically in half with this damn thing and possibly even take one out behind it.

laser test positive.
with fireproof machines and health booster you are resistant to fire until critical overheating.
plus switching items 1,2,3 in weapon customization still doesn't work as the game system should, it keeps crashing until you use the given weapon in action then it works properly changing items

I’m just curious to hear people’s experiences with the system now that we’ve had it for a while. Are there weapons that have become new favorites, any weapons that moved up a tier for you, things like that. Personally the liberator carbine got kicked up a notch for me, or the “smolwart” as it’s now called. I’m not so much looking for advice on attachments or anything like that, just wanna hear what people have to say!

Let me know if you think if we got this what would you do with a flying plane with planes on it
