I was getting sorta bored with the big ass open world maps that take forty minutes to complete, so a blitz mission like this is welcome. Glad to see they’re doing more of them, and such fun ones too! First the high value asset evac, and now corrupted TCS towers

[@Aflay1]

Ironically, I love the big open maps so much, for a similar reason that I like the crazy heavy refinery maps in Deep Rock Galactic.

[@KsnypsAdventures]

@@Aflay1 they’re cool in some ways, and many planets look great. However, clearing them out, even on low levels, can take you almost the full mission time, and that’s without taking into account the backtracking and numerous deaths. I also prefer having a small map if I can’t see jack shit cause of the weather effects. The TCS map size is ideal in my opinion, not quite as big as icbm maps and not quite as small as eradicate maps

[@GiggleGeezer]

I played a few thousand hours on Helldivers 1. The tank's forward facing cannon was by no means a turret with only around a 20 degree aiming range, which forced the two on board to work together to hit targets. The cannon and HMG fired just like the current Patriot. The gunner entered the rear hatch, while the driver entered front. Almost all vehicles and walkers had an armor reading around 70%, followed by a 30% burn down timer where Divers needed to bail, before the unit exploded. Hellbombs and several attacks from Illuminates outright destroyed the unit and killed the Diver, much like our current Patriot. Perhaps future ship modules will allow for upgrades. All three walker mechs in HD1 had Stratagem ports where you could do a generic throw for anything, while all four vehicles required a Diver to exit, to be able to toss anything. The current Patriot has a notch where that port fire might be located in the future. There were four vehicles in HD1. Divers had to use caution when exiting while the vehicle was in motion. The motorcycle and side car had a MG but no armor. The other three ATVs had three gunner slots with a mix of AC, tank turret and MGs. I avoided them for the most part since driving off of cliffs or into mine fields would wipe the squad. There was zero reason to be in any vehicle vs Illuminates since they had multiple ways to one shot anything. The Displacer will be interesting in HD2.

[@SibTauran]

This mission is awfully easy. Suspiciously, even.

[@Uncertainty2]

@@z34567890123456 tbf the helldivers 1 hitlercycle was pretty hillarious on its own. It was basically one of those old-timey motorcycles with a sidecar, except that said sidecar was covered and spikes and had a front-facing machinegun. The tank was actually kinda awful, though; its 'turret' could only swivel within a 45 degree cone on the front, meaning that aiming was mostly the driver's job. It could be funny as a meme, but the APC with the cannon turret was pretty much better in every way.

[@cooperwilliams751]

idk what these devs are doing but in my first game today i took the plasma punisher and the shield backpack. plasma punisher explodes INSIDE ur personal shield if u aim up which is a hilarious oversight. After I died my teammates were unable to reinforce me for the entirety of the match due to some other glitch. I was the host. whenever anyone else was killed they could be reinforced meanwhile I stayed dead.

These missions are cool, and dont need to be crazy. It's basically a limited time mission. Its nice when limited time stuff can be reused again and varied. And lore wise it makes sense to be so simple, go in, turn off machine, no silly nonsensical waiting to power down or nothing.

[@XboxProdigy1]

You can tell this is a "we fucked up, get in and get out" mission simply by the fact that Pelican 1 does not wait to get you. He's there immediately laying down fire until you guys get to the LZ.

the additional exp gain was probably time bonus, given how respawning takes like eight or nine seconds plus time reaquiring gear before then sorting out which direction you need to go again, so maybe 15-20s per death.

[@GuidingOlive]

I really think that a squad of 4 could get this down to sub 2 minutes and we'd really see exp gains. I'm already thinking of going duo on this mission and speed running it to finish off the warbonds that I still need to do.

My current prediction, IF they end up doing some form of that 2 player bomb mission, is that they would use it for when they eventually send us back to meridia to reclaim it. it would be the most badass mission to drop onto a terminid super structure, carry in a bomb, arm it, and then get out.

[@hawk9mm]

Same thing happened on the ramps to the control panels last time, you just fall through.

[@TheHuffur]

I think the reason this mission is this easy is because its essentially a storytelling piece rather than a mission, they want people to play these because the Termicide Towers are going to be a focus point for changes and they do not want people to be clueless "Why did this happen all of a sudden!?"

[@benignsentient6772]

[@stuflames4769]

OhDough experiment - Eagle Strafing Run vs the Deactivate Termanid Control System mission type. This stupid strategem finally has a niche, and it's really good there. Not because of buffs or whatever, it's just ideal for the narrow passages of this mission type and busts the objective eggs. Give this underused strategem a try in its ideal environment and see what you think.

New missions are bugged beyond any level. Termicide tower missions are full wuith huge holes in the terrain which ends down the hole in some map basis texture and no escape. Also 3 missions consecutively the respawn was also bugged and only 1 person could respawn after death and that basically sealed the mission fate. Very annoying Also funny how they didn't adjust the magazine indicator on the quasar weapon. Weapon is still on cooldown but the magazine icon shows it as cooled down.
