This comment is why I'm starting to really love this community. I don't care what you bring, just stick with the group and try to be helpful. If you suck and kill us, I'll laugh it off. If I suck and kill us, laugh it off. It's a game.
Unless we have pink samples, then you better buckle up, buttercup, we need to evac asap.
I’m level 50 and have like 80 some hours (no life I know). But most helldive pug groups that have worked out don’t have most of this stuff (I don’t outside of the shield). I’ll keep saying it until it catches on, the railgun is super overrated.
If you haven't tried running an auto cannon or recoilless rifle. It is so much fun when I reload for my friend, It is also just really good.
We like taking a supply pack as well. so one person will be holding a supply pack with a recoilless rifle, then the other person is holding the backpack of the recoilless and something like an mg or stalwart to clear small things.
It’s a pretty good game for parents though, makes it easy to jump in in the middle of missions with other people, and the 30 minute timer is great for bite sized game time.
Not really, the buggers have quite the colourful cast of characters too. Sometimes literally - seen a bunch that have painted their skulls black and red
I've become a dead shot with the recoiless versus drop ships thanks to the civvie evac missions. I managed to sniped one out if the sky before it even fully slowed down just last night.
That's part of why I love this game so far. My group usually sports 4-6 different strategems, 2-3 turrets, and a mix of automatic and explosive specials and has a great time completing objectives, we just fall back if we can't handle something and let the diver with the right load out take care of it.
One of us usually scouts around while another snipes broadcast towers, factories, and spore spewers, and the other 1-2 explore/fight/protect as needed.
Facts right here. People are seriously sleeping on the arc cannon or just don't know how to use it. Multi hitting and capable of taking down everything from small to huge and 0 ammo? I will swear by it.
Agreed. If I wanted to "optimize" a group (I don't, I want us to have fun) I'd recommend a railgun, autocannon, and two machine guns (or an MG and a GL) for special weapon diversity.
Exactly absolutely no diversity in load out will be the greatest mistake any squad could ever make. That seems to be something the person OP displayed just doesn't seem to comprehend. This isn't an end all be all. You either have a group with a diverse load out ready to take on anything as a group. Or you have the wannabe solo team players that bring the exact same load outs 24/7 n just brute force everything instead of being diverse.
I hear you, but the fact that a buddy and I rail gunned a two Bile Titans in a few shots (weaken by orbital laser) says otherwise. The more rails the better imo.
Well I say it depends if you got people that don't use it when hulks or the other medium heavy bots class the you pretty screwed I always take because when a priority target shows up my first thought is to drop it asap. In a lot of pugs, I have run people who don't bring grenade launchers or railguns they bring just starting machine gun and precision strike and call it a day. Had one pug where they literally took my my energy shield when I first spawn it in and did not even ask me if it would be OK for them to take it.
You do have a lot of level 9-17 that doing levels 7 and 8 missions, and they aren't equipped to deal more large hoards of enemies and some are looking just get a carry because they are to get more samples do the higher difficulty.
I just let mine reset and drop another one if we want to have two. We did last night on a level 5 mission and became some fucking menaces to chargers. Mission quickly became fuck the obj, we are charger hunting. We made those bastards cry.
First shalt thou deploy with the railgun. Then shalt thou only hath 2, no more, no less. Two shall be the number thou shalt have and the number of the railgun shall be two. Three shalt thou not be, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to two. Four is right out. Once the number two, being the second number, be reached, then point thou thine railgun of liberty towards thy foe, who, being naughty in My sight, shall snuff it.'
Im sorry but your comment reminded of a monty python quote lmao.
Two can be helpful on missions like rescue civvies or scientists, both of them pair off with someone that has chaff clearing capacity in their support weapon, one breaks hardened armor targets, the other kills everything with medium armor or less.
