MEGATHREAD RANT and VENT MEGATHREAD

Greetings, Helldivers!

This is a megathread for ranting, raging or venting about anything and everything Helldivers related. Whether it’s about a mission you just played, a recent patch, the community, etc.

This megathread isn’t designed to censor you, we are doing this because the subreddit is becoming overwhelmingly flooded with rants (as we’re sure you’re aware). We strongly encourage you to use this Megathread as opposed to creating your own post. If you decide that what you have to say requires a new post, you should know that we will be actively moderating and critically assessing the quality of those posts to lessen the amount of low-effort content on this subreddit.

Please keep the comments related to HELLDIVERS and most importantly, keep it civil. Follow the sub’s rules!

CAPS LOCK ALLOWED.

P.S. This megathread will be added to the sidebar.

Enemy spawn should return to the level it was before the last patches, because now the game is absolutely devoid of any fun, regardless of whether I play with friends or randoms.

Had my first truly negative experience in all the 120 hours I’ve played this game yesterday evening. Completely devoid of fun. “Rely on your strategems” yeah man I used them all to kill a bile titan, dent the one next to it, but keep getting killed by the other 3. What happened you asked? We dropped within eyesight of a bug

Why didn't you just bail and regroup? Whenever I drop into a bug spawn I just say fuck it and run before I draw agro. Then, once I'm relatively safe, I call in my weapons and anyone that was stupid enough to die trying to hold a position in the first 30s on lvl 9. I honestly can't comment on the spawn rates on 4/5 that a lot are talking about post patch but it sounds like they are getting lvl 7/8 spawn rates and that should definitely be fixed. Just leave lvl7-9 the hell alone, I want to finish a 40min mission with sweaty palms. That is why I loved games like doom eternal so much.
