What ? Gaming industry shrinking? Why would that happen ? Companies only do good things! Like activision blizzard : let's see: Warcraft III: Reforged just about everything done with COD the insult known as "Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 5" all the stuff around diablo 3 Destiny 1 and 2 Tweets about a fake terror attack in singapore as a funny marketing gag Patenting a matchmaking system to match people who buy ingame items with people who have inferior gear putting everybody who didn't do any ingame purchases at an objective disadvantage Diablo Immortal some staff literally skipping meals due to low wages while their CEO Kotick gives himself a 30million paycheck
The terror marketing in Singapore is news to me

Modding is a wonderful way to break into the industry

Pure project managers shouldn't touch an editor at all but it's easier to discuss about stuff with the project team if you know at least something about programming.

Not saying you shouldn't do it but remember that many people have made their hobby into a job and had to get another hobby.

I have no idea
A good deal of my game dev pals got there by making mods and maps for games like Doom and Duke Nukem 3D. Some folks at Arrowhead still like modding for the games they love.
So can we get modding tools... Or at least some sort of custom map maker for it?
And open a business of selling bug meat
Welp, we've got illuminates first. Never liked playing against them. Gonna take a break it seems.
I find them the easiest personally but also my least favorite

I'm available.

Hope we get some more sneak peeks. I'd like to see what our ship looks like, is there customizations? Is there in game currency and tons of different armor pieces to purchase to look unique. Is there going to be a leveling system?
We were somewhat shown some info in the trailers, not real details on this. There will be a leveling system most likely similar to HD1 , they mentioned you will be able to upgrade the interior of your ship and several variations of it were shown, there absolutely will be different armor sets you can earn/buy. No mention of in-game currency as of yet.
1
It may not be that big of a deal to some, but I do like the idea of upgrading the ship. Also really curious about the shovel and how many mines I got to dig for lol

No idea, 'soon' is all we have.
So sad, I hope that they could bring us some crismas news.

the ship personalization isn't something that I would see relevant, I mean, in HD1 the generic ship interior is ok for me, but as something added I would be happy customizing my ship as I want.

we will need a ram on our ships
Maybe use the Boarding pods from the Astartes? Just board the ship and blow it up from the inside?
you mean the thing with melta in the end?

I own HD1 for PC. I went to go buy it for PS5, and it's the same price as HD2... anything you guys can do to get Sony to lower the price or make it a free monthly title to help rebuild the community, and get more people hungry for HD2.
I got it on sale. A whopping $15 dollars. The price is a tad steep though

I wasted an entire commando mag and the backpack of ammo just for the missiles to bounce off the tank
The commando is kinda gross to use on controller you can't aim it accurately like u can on Mouse and Keyboard.

I’ve noticed. I’ve learned to move and shoot
Are people not joining your MP sessions you're putting up?
Uuuuh I might’ve put it on friends only

The recoiless rifle is a helldivers best friend
Tanks also shrug off commando fire most of the time unless u hit their sweet spot
I’ve noticed, where exactly is the sweet spot? In the back right? Cause the front does nothing

Sweet spot is the back of the tank
But the recoiless rifle doesn't give a F@$! You can hit that tank at any angle and the recoiless rifle will send that cyborg straight to hell
I have recoiless but didn’t like the lack of movement
I wasted an entire commando mag and the backpack of ammo just for the missiles to bounce off the tank
1 commando's targeting works something like this, it prioritizes the thing closest to the sweetspot 2 to kill an IFV you have to make the missile target the back 3 to kill it from the side, you have to make the missile redirect itself towards the back, if you simply shoot directly at it, it'll hit one of the armored parts of the IFV 4 for vehicles their armor is stronger at the front, medium on the sides, and weakest at the back if you are trying to kill IFVs with stuff like Vindicators, Airstrikes, Close Air Support, Rec-6 Detonators, ETC. you want to aim either at the middle, or the hatch on the back the railcannon strike automatically destroys an IFV it locks unto, and it's the most consistent way of killing it aside from RL-112 (which pierces armor)
those are supposed to be 4 images

The voip straight up sounds like they are speaking through a radio in their helmet
Our publisher is holding off on us releasing more media at the moment because they have their own set schedule and cadence for press. We have a lot prepared and ready to roll out as soon as we receive the go-ahead, and we appreciate our community's continued patience. In the meantime, we've released several trailers and blogs, and we're trying to provide smaller info-drops, like our ship propaganda videos, to keep from total radio silence! Check the #hd2-announcements channel for a list of everything we've shared so far this year!

Not related as far as I'm aware, just because we had this request way before that. We also have a very different relationship to Sony than ND, seeing as we're still independent!

helldivers stay winning i guess cant wait for the big roll out of news
Just you wait for all the cool reveals coming
1
two days pass, the big reveal finally comes, its a letter of resignation from every employee except for one person at arrowhead and helldivers 2 was an elaborate prank to force one guy to work extra hard
1
Pretty cool. I was talking about the quote radio silence in my discord a while ago. I figured it was a sony/publisher thing especially since its a PS5/PC exclusive, and Playstation is on a roll with huge console sales. I imagine they are trying to keep that streak and will spread out any exclusive releases to get max profits. ( No bad mojo at Playstation, just that's business ) That was the other thing I noticed too was Playstation just recently got some big games on Steam ( Last of Us, Spiderman, God of War ) and HD2 is the only one that is essentially new-ish, and not already an already released console game being ported over. So it makes sense what Baskinator said about them deciding the release cadence. The other cool thing people need to know is Arrowhead has been pretty much been working on Helldivers for a decade at this point with HD1, then a year or so after HD1, starting the work for HD2. Its their baby. Clearly a lot of passion, a lot of writing and sculpting for the IP they made. So back to speculation and hype, as I'm spending part of my day just revisiting trailers, store pages, and anything that describes the game!
2
So hd2 will be fine releasing almost a month earlier
It is also an entirely different genre and demographic, so they're not direct competition
the shredder in helldivers 2 will be beautiful
I agree
Shut up man
shut up
its beginning to look a lot like christmas
Real
Getting my friends into HD1 to get more hype goin for HD2. The only thing missing from the trailers is vehicles and the Illuminates. We are all super excited!

I know we're gonna absolutely love council members teleporting behind us in 3rd person /s

Teleports behind you
"Hehe, I'm in danger!"
We stand with Insomniac and I wouldn't allow it on the channel
2
Yes, hard agree. The only discussion to be had is that this is a terrible thing to happen to the employees, particularly the ones who have had their personal information and safety compromised. If anyone is found posting content from this leak, that's grounds for an immediate ban per our server rules.
2
....what happened?
Just news of a big leak from Insomniac's upcoming game titles Though take it with a grain of salt, it could all just be an elaborate meme, but we shouldn't take about it in the server
1
I am asking what was leaked, it sounds like doxing acvording to everyone else here and you make it sound like it's just about projects
It was millions of files so you can assume that it’s all of the above
Did they confirm libertea brewing minigame for buffs before a mission?
ah yes Helldivers is slowly becoming Like a Dragon XD
Honestly, having a Mess Hall on the ship with special teas you can brew would be awesome as hell.

When the war effort moves towards or away from a capital, you end up getting a new set of planets to play on. Which also is going to mean different reward sets. Unless you were part-way thorugh multiple missions you can't go back ( and if you were part way, you will get a notification that says "You can still complete this area" )
No shot doom721 is in here NC Till I die my man
Yeah I'm done with my Planetside days, but I'll always support the blue and yellow New Conglomerate! Hoping to support some yellow and black helldivers soon this February!
Honestly man I stopped ps2 as well man shit was just turning into such a sweat fest with no fun :/ be glad to join ya come February though mate! If you can handle my British ping lmao

fun lil gameplay thing according to one of the CMs so a teeny reveal or gameplay trailer after that it'll be January so drought should be over soon hopefully
community team members I think we need to move around the channel order... Newcomers are using #off-topic as #hd2-general-chat-1...
I had moved the general section to the top, I don’t know why it’s moved back
Hey guys, i got some questions about the game. is it like remnant style? there is like upgrade system? for better guns/armor? buy stuff? loot? how it actually works? there are like biomes you need to complete and move to the next one?
I never played Remnant, and nothing too much has been released about HD2 either. However, I could tell one or two things based on the Helldivers 1 system. 1. Upgrade System Yes, yes there is. You can make your guns stronger or orbital supports faster and stronger. 2. Buy Stuff? It was level based unlock in Helldivers 1. You either clear more missions to get more gear or level up. 3. Loot? Not exactly. We have this system called sample and research points which are used for upgrades but we lack "Actual Looting" system.

Technically there are different planetary environments and "biomes", but they remain the same depending on the planet, no matter how many missions you complete on it. However, there are:
- Swamps
- Tundras
- Forests
- Deserts
- Lava-zones
- Cities (only for planet capital or Super-Earth defense)

Eh, if you are REALLY good at completing objectives it can take 8 minutes per mission. But on average it should take around 15 minutes. Thats IF you survive.
Please keep your discussions to the appropriate channels, like #hd2-general-chat-1
we really need to realign the order of categories to HD2-General-HD1 or HD2-HD1-General

Afternoon. How are you
anyone know if H2 will have crossplay
I would suspect that it does since the Steam version requires a PlayStation account to play online. Really not sure why they've been quiet about it. A little concerning in my opinion.

does it? I've yet to play a ps game on steam that required one
does it? I've yet to play a ps game on steam that required one
If you look at the Steam page, it says it
that doesn't mean it needs one, it's just gonna connect to the PS network, but I get your point about crossplay
1
meaning if your internet drops out even when playing by yourself in a mission, your likely gonna get booted to the main menu
Does that mean you need ps plus subscription if you play on steam?
Doubt it, just says PlayStation Network account, which is free. PS Plus is the paid subscription. I know Sony wouldn't be that dumb to require PS Plus to play it on PC. That would spark so much backlash lol
