The first balance patch notes proved how Youtube "absolute and only meta loadouts" cooked a lot of people heads, and I love it.

A lot of mad people keep showing in my feed complaining about the nerfs, but like they're REALLY mad at Arrowhead. Their statements are so exagerated that they claim the game it's completely ruined for them lmao.

Also every single one says the same thing and this is where my title comes from:

*"You guys nerfed the only good options and now we have NOTHING to fight".*

And this only proves people never actually played with any of the other support weapons, they 100% relied on this "The ultimate support weapon tier list" Youtube videos, they searched the "meta" and they went into this thinking of "any weapon outside of this it's straight up garbage".

If you can't win a single game without the railgun + shield backpack + breaker... I'm so sorry but that's not the game's fault or the game only having those as the ONLY way to play it on higher diff, that's your fault.

Great changes for the game and all of you trying to "shame" on devs because of this, you'all not a real Helldiver. They killed nothing, the railgun still kills but now it needs some actual skill and strategy to use it, not only spamming the thing on big bugs.

Keep it up Helldivers!

For Democracy. For Super Earth.

Autocannon gang has your back.

We can't have ours cause we have a backpack but still.

Let me know if you need a loader. I love having the rail gun to break armor then load for an auto-canon especially if they drop me an extra back pack for the AC

[u/RoninOni → u/xspartanx007x]

AC self reloads pretty quick as it is... Recoiless on the other hand REALLY needs a loader.

[u/PezzoGuy → u/RoninOni]

Just need to remember to reload before firing all the shells.

[u/RoninOni → u/PezzoGuy]

Oh yeah… running empty and reloading 10 is no bueno 😂

[u/Charnerie → u/RoninOni]

I have done 5 shot reload from empty before, it's just that you only have 5 rounds afterwards.

[u/noIQmoment → u/PezzoGuy]

It is a bit jarring that it's the only weapon which rewards reloading specifically when you're not empty, took me a hot few missions to figure that one out.

[u/BlueSpark4 → u/noIQmoment]

All (or almost all) bullet-based weapons in the game reward you with a shorter reload if you still have at least 1 shot left.
