@PhilosophicallyAmerican that's part of the buffdiver patch. amg-43 was always the mg-43 mounted on a turret and the gatling was the stalwart at highest RoF. the first buff was the call down time for the amg43 to differentiate it from the gatling as no one was aware that they had different AP, so the lower cool down was to make it more attractive. now they reduced the call down time of all turrets, the amg43 even more so, and the gatling med AP so it wouldn't get left in the dust.

Probably only run the same loadouts as well. This might be the first time in the game that at least half of the primaries and secondaries are good options for most types of enemies and combat. At launch it was Breaker all day with some occasional Punisher and Scorcher play. When the breaker got nerfed, the Slugger took its place. When the Slugger got nerfed, people started experimenting with the Defender and ballistic shield. But there was never more than 3 weapons tops used consistently against the bots and 3 or 4 against the bugs since the breaker incendiary got buffed around the time the Slugger got nerfed. Game is legit more fun than ever now and, with tougher enemies and more sub faction variety coming, we'll start to see some more specific loadout variety as opposed to the EAT/RR/AC/Quasar spam that existed for the majority of the games life.

I'm no angry old vet, about to try and yank the ladder up behind myself so new rooks and experienced freedom fighters alike have to struggle like I did during the old days. Far from it--I'll never complain about Divin' being "too easy" because such a thing just doesn't exist--there's always room for difficulty 11, and even 12, and anyone struggling to find tough times can up their difficulty directly, or pick different loadouts. But for me, the difference isn't quite the difficulty, but it is very clear... it's more fun. Dispensing justices to the enemies of Super Earth has always been an entertaining passtime and a devout calling for every Helldiver chosen by Super God to lay their life down for liberty, but it's never felt so right. Primary weapons serving to do more than just clear basic footsoldiers, turrets working as hard as the engineers who made 'em, the Senator opening up the door for a wider variety of loadouts by giving everyone the ability to take on heavy threats, timed grenades being a battlefield threat worth taking, and best of all the nearly-flawless Autocannon having its one weakness removed, and now being an equal opportunity ammo-efficient Discord Daddy of a gun able to efficiently end all threats to democracy regardless of size or shape. It's just more fun being a Helldiver these days, and I never want to go back.

@Deltarious3 ай бұрын
I take heavy armor on bugs because pretty much the only time I take hits on bugs are when fighting is inevitable and I'd be taking them anyway, regardless of the armor choice. It does mean I have to actually think about how I'm running and using my stamina when we're relocating or backing out of a fight and it is a bit harder, but honestly it's not *that* much harder. I find it lets me stand and fight and survive enough to get out whatever I need to in order to clear the threats more often than not. My entire playstyle is actually to support my team, yes, but minimize my number of deaths, that is my absolute top priority after making sure the team wins, and it is very rare I am not the lowest death count on the team- and usually it's the team that has caused that if not, which I forgive them for. For me taking heavy armor on bugs is really working well with how I play towards that goal. I do think if I was a very standoff-ish player and thought about positioning every second with the right type of support weapon then I'd be able to make other armors work, but I keep getting drawn into positions where I feel compelled to help a teamate that is getting surrounded and thus have to get my hands dirty directly right in the fray so making small mistakes and taking hits is somewhat inevitable but I survive just about all of the time with heavier armor P.S. Have you tried recoiless rifle HE vs Impailers? I need to test it more but I *think* if you angle it just right under them it can one shot them, which it would not do before as a HEAT weapon

Fell back in love with the autocannon, especially against bugs. A few flak rounds above a patrol can wipe most of them out, but most importantly, IT WIPES OUT THOSE DAMN HORDES OF SHRIEKERS WITH EASE (Warning: remember to hold your fire if they start diving and get close unless you want to eat your own flak shell, this may or may not have happened to me multiple times). The 60 plan has done one of the things I've wanted for quite a while now, and that's seeing such varied loadouts. The only things I haven't really seen a lot are anything smoke related and most of the Liberators with light pen. I hope they continue with this design philosophy for future additions as well as making small positive tweaks where needed. I'd like them to take this same idea and apply it to armor as well. I think they could get away with adding some additional bonuses to unique armor sets to really make them stand out as more viable picks in certain conditions.

@@CommissarKai I’m personally not a fan, but they aren’t AP/Incen mines or Airburst Launcher, so I have no problem with people using them in my lobbies

UPDATE: Just found out that the AB launcher’s submunitions are frag grenades under the hood, which got double damage this patch, so Imma let people use it in my lobbies for a bit.

My favorite unsung hero for bots is the Liberator Penetrator. 45 rounds and low recoil make it a joy to use even if it's not the best.

Flak Autocannon reigns supreme over bot drops. A well placed shot will take out the entire bay of light troops. 3-5 will take out an entire bay of devastators. Leave the recoiless not to shoot down those dropships. Save him for the dropships with tanks and factory striders.

You are forgetting about the Torcher and Crisper which are both AP4 as well. Senator is good against bots because most of their stuff has at least armor 3, AP4 is helpful for dealing full damage, plus the potential kills on Hulks (very difficult to pull off without a stun though, and if your grenade is involved why not just thermite?). Against Bugs, the Verdict is better as you will NEVER want use the Senator against a charger or bile titan for any reason other than memes. GP is still probably the overall best pick against bugs unless you have an explosive primary.

Senator buff is massive. Pair it with the ballistic shield and you can square up and give the heavy devastator a taste of their own bullshit. I personally pair it with the diligenceCS to run as the flanker. I'm roaming sniping fabricators and being a sneaky menace.
