[@mr.morkite1598]

I played 1 mission with randoms today. The artillery was unceasing and indiscriminate. My teammates gave their lives to destroy the parked dropships, while I alone was spared long enough to sneak into and hack the ATC tower, under the cover of a lucky sandstorm. We had run out of reinforcements, but I wisely brought the perk which reduces the spare reinforcement cooldown, so we reinforced eachother as we retreated to the evac zone. By the time the dropship arrived, all 4 of us were revived, and we ran like hell. And I shit you not, the dss fired a shell at the pelican door, and we all died.

Not to worry, Helldiver! The Command, anticipating the problem, has approved additional reinforcements and a shield strategem to mitigate the effects of a stray artillery round 😁

[@wickermind6668]

This shitass station's single-handedly making us lose Mastia, the amount of failed missions this thing churns out counteracts the liberation boost. I hope the bots scrap it on Gaellivare so Super Earth can give us some cooler stratagems instead.

I want to do a case study on the Arrowhead development process. Fascinatingly bizarre

[@Mapper2]

We are living the life of a Helldiver and this is how Super Earths Weapons development test new weapons.. I think blowing up the Moon was an accident but they had to play it off as intentional.. Remember when they first released the Eruptor and Air Burst rocket launcher ? Ahhh sooo many sacrifices... Make the suggestion that certain secondarys improve the aim such as destroying jammers and completing the radar dish make aiming better or create a new secondary all together that will improve the aim... Even a Super Destroyer fully equipped with the atmospheric orbital mods should aid the stations aiming as well... Each fully equipped ship adds a percentage to the accuracy but still leaves an oopsie margin..

[@LeadMetal82]

I had to warn my teammates to keep our spacing as far as possible else risk dying all at once due to a random arty 😂

[@themonaclan]

The fact that the DSS has more friendly fire kills the natural enemy, kills it harder than my dad Bruh🐝🐝🐝

This might seem scary to a quasar cannon player, but you might have to stick as a team during orbital barrages

[@omanus197]

DSS : is an interplanetary battle-station based on liberated First Galactic War Era battle plans. The DSS promises to be a powerful strategic tool for reshaping the Galactic Map - democratically directed by the Helldivers themselves. also DSS : *legalize nuclear bombs*

[@Hexodroid]

I feel like it would be better if instead what it did was enemy outposts would come pre-destroyed on missions or for things like the eagle storm it gave an effect where all eagle stratagems struck twice

[@Redhot-Helldiver]

I have not been this disappointed since my father died. What an absolute embarrassment.

[@kingjules8744]

[@LeadMetal82]

6 months of work for something they never intended to do? Nah man, This is definitely intentional.

[@evildeathmanofdeath]

everything AH releases is bugged at this point. the only reason they have ANY goodwill left with the player base is because they chose to do the BARE MINIMUM and changed a few stats on some guns, strategems, and enemies, even then it took them 60 days to even do that.

[@liloma20]

even without this issue the dss still suck like there is basically nothing new, no hub, no clan system, no special really powerful stratagem just a rain of team kill

[@Purpleskull64]

If nothing else, this is a reason why I'd join the Chaosdivers. Super Earth High Command has become incompetent and we are paying the price! (In other words, I hope the devs fix this, it seems this worked better in theory than the actual execution)

[@Dawaycow]

It more feels like the DSS intentionally fires at the Helldivers instead of the Bots. It's more like just constant artillery from Bots than from Super Earth. They could have atleast given up free orbital's or other stratagems instead of just making it fire randomly. This alone has killed me double the amount of times that I usually die on Missions.

[@leafant7333]

[@TheRealPurplotl]

Hot take, but honestly I didn't find it this bad. Got on for a few games today with some friends after seeing all the negative back lash and expected it to be insanely unplayable but actually we managed to extract from the whole campaign with all samples and minimal casualties. Minimal, as we did get hit by the odd stray, but nothing to the extent of the complaints. I already know the response to what I am about to say so I will save the time, yes I understand you shouldn't have to waste stratagem slots to simply survive, and you want to use whatever is meta / whatever you prefer... Buuuuut if you are going to a planet under bombardment, plan for it, take a heavier armour with blast resistance, take a personal shield to bide some time, doing so makes it a breeze, and you will find that as you progress, the bombardment helps you take out stray camps. I know I am the minority opinion atm but I still believe that democracy is the most important thing right now, and people are saying a lot of traitorous things!

[@evildeathmanofdeath]

Nah homie, this shit sucks. AH oversaw this for months and they still let it have a green light. At best, it's a net zero. At worst, it actively makes your game a worse experience. It randomly kills you and the minimal amount of help it does lend you (killing a few small outposts, lmao) is basically negated by having a recoilless rifle on your team.

[@somax2705]

Imo, the main problem (that nobody seems to understand) is that it's supposed to be a strategic buff (so a buff to the campaign as a whole), so the main utility to it is the liberation bonus, the increase defense time and the insta win gambit (or stop the clock, it depends on how they implemented it) if you target the planet from where an attack came. It is the problem because more than half of the community never pays attention to that (and probably don't even read the effect of what they vote for.... if not they wouldn't have chosen the bombardment)

My thinking was that once the orbital blockade gets funded it will stop the attack on Gaellivare preventing the need to go defend it and bringing the fight to the Jet Brigade. I didn't know at that time that only one DSS action could active at any one time which made it impossible to do such a thing because planetary bombardment was active.
