13:36 Forgot to mention my Darktide experience is just on Xbox. The game was working great on release there and I never felt it was trying to fleece me for cash. I forgor the PC launch was a little botched 💀 Also a lot of people are asking where 2:21 is from. It's from the live action ODST trailer kzbin.info/www/bejne/q4i2fXuZdt6sb5Isi=j3g9pj9mSWdGdVhk

13:36 Not only is the free pass the primary one, but the "Super Credits" which you can buy for IRL money, can also be found on missions and bought using in-game currency. Which means that if you grind enough of the game, you can actually unlock the Premium Warbond without using a single cent of IRL money. Everything in the game can be acquired by in-game currency

[@battlecubes4762]

Technically not everything. The super citizen bundle gives you unique weapons and armor that you can't get anywhere else. But other than those, yeah. Everything is technically free.

[@degg7129]

I loved that in Warframe, and i love it here to, almost as if non predatory currency schemes made games more enjoyable

[@luxferreomega3843]

@@battlecubes4762 You can't get the Super Citizen armor, but the "effects" the SC armor gives which stops you from bleeding out if your torso is injured (and also occasionally saves you from critical damage by putting you at 1 HP that would normally kill you like automaton landmines) is actually the same effects the Hero of the Federation armor gives from the free pass. So while you don't have the armor itself, you can literally just get the same effects it gives from another armor set.

I’m pretty new to the community and I’ve seen a bunch of people talking about the fall of Malevelon Creek, but I still have no idea what happened. Could I ask for the story from a grizzled veteran such as yourself?

[@ILieToEveryone1337]

@@Dill9540 the Creek was a somewhat unimportant planet with only a few thousand divers fighting for it but grew in popularity and more helldivers came to reinforce the few. It was going well until the accursed Joel gave the Automatons assistance, after a long fought battle many helldivers were abandoned on the Creek, hence being the temporary "fall of Malevelon Creek", but miraculously, they managed to take part of it back. Now we're where we are today, still fighting the never ending battle for the Creek against Joel

[@kdog3908]

Sometimes Joel's fuckery can lead to some intense battles. I bombarded a outpost and right as I left the rock to run in, 15 mg raiders came clustered out from behind a small boulder. Kill 5 then 20 more come from the same rock and before I can finish reloading, another 10 and no way they all fit behind that boulder. All I see is red and them marching forward as I'm praying I don't run out of ammo behind a tiny rock. I'm guessing it was around that many because of the size and I had a kill streak of 37 by the time it was over from spamming every weapon out of panic.

Fast-forward a few minutes, the Superdestroyer has left, the Pelican got auto-summoned and leaves in 20 seconds, I'm dodging past a Hulk, diving a Cannon Turret shot to throw one last grenade and take out one last fabricator, finishing the objective before dying.
