By DY_nasty Go To PostI’m legit jealous they had no problem locking on. That is the hardest part of using the spear and I have no idea what/if I’m doing wrong.
You're not doing anything wrong. It needs fixing. I would expect a further weapon balance patch this week.
By RAThasReturned Go To PostOWNED.yeah; almost everything is physics based, so throwing something with enough velocity, and that hits at the wrong angle will have it bounce off.
Is the bomb bouncing off a tank something that's a known possibility?
The same with bullets even, if you shoot at a charger's armor where there's sharp angles.
By Dazenheimer Go To Postdo tanks show up on hard or challenging?
I'm pretty certain I've seen one turn up on medium once but it's rare. Challenging or hard for sure but idk if they're guranteed to show up every mission.
New patch:
Re the crossplay issues:
PATCH 1.000.103
Good day fellow Helldivers! Piping hot patch notes straight from the oven arriving.
Overview
For this patch, we have implemented:
Fixes to the EXO-45 Patriot exosuit, game stats, UI, and general stability.
Balance improvements for planetary hazards and patrol spawns.
Balancing
Balanced and adjusted spawn rates for the various planet hazards including tremors, meteor showers, volcanic activity, fire tornados, and ion storms. Hazards should now spawn less frequently during missions.
Meteor Shower has received the following changes in addition to reduced spawn rate:
Reduced explosion radius
Reduced meteor damage slightly
Reduced meteor velocity slightly
Meteor color has been changed slightly to try and make it easier to spot.
Volcanic Activity has received the following changes in addition to reduced spawn rate:
Reduced explosion radius
Reduced rock velocity slightly
Lighting on Fenrir III has been adjusted to be a bit less bright to improve visibility during meteor showers
Fixes
Reduced incidents of patrols spawning on players.
Exosuit no longer destroys itself when firing a missile while turning .
Exosuit retains its melee functionality, even when damaged.
Crash Fixes for the following scenarios
When ALT+Tabbing in fullscreen mode
After changing voice over language
PS5 boot issue
Using a stim inside of an Exosuit while wielding a grenade
When joining an ongoing mission
When idling on the title screen
Shots from arc-based weapons, such as 'Blitzer' shotgun and 'AC-8 Arc Thrower' stratagem now count towards "Shots fired" and "Shots hit" stats.
Fixed network desync issue with downed Automaton dropships.
Fixed Elgato Stream Deck Foot Pedal support.
Known Issues
These are issues that were either introduced by this patch and are being worked on, or are from a previous version and have not yet been fixed.
Various issues involving friend invites and cross-play:
Cross-platform friend invites might not show up in the Friend Requests tab.
Players cannot unfriend other players befriended via friend code.
Players cannot unblock players that were not in their Friends list beforehand.
Players cannot befriend players with Steam names shorter than 3 characters.
Hellpod steering close to large or important objects is currently not functioning as intended, resulting in steering being disabled in a large area around the object.
Online features are not functioning when console language is set to Ukrainian.
Players may be unable to select loadout when joining a multiplayer via an activity card.
Planet liberation reaches 100% at the end of every Defend mission.
Drowning in deep water with a Vitality Booster equipped puts Helldiver in a broken state.
Exosuits will sometimes be delivered in a damaged or broken state.
Stratagem beam might attach itself to an enemy but it will deploy to its original location.
Pink artifacts may appear in the sky when setting off large explosions.
Text chat box display is obstructed by the cinematic letterboxing during extraction.
Sometimes the player’s loadout customizations will reset after restarting the game.
Re the crossplay issues:
Lightning guns are crashing the game presumably due to them changing the way their hits are tracked.
By DY_nasty Go To PostShriekers are a fucking problemwrong thread?
You can kinda deal with Stalkers… These nests gotta go IMMEDIATELY

Also if you look closely at the above video you may notice a new support gun that isn't out yet (the HMG).
Fuckery Report 3/21/24:
Difficulty: Suicide Mission
Me and my squad make it to extraction and but have to wait 4mins until shuttle arrives.
Ship arrives and a motherfucking Titan blocks our ship from landing.
Timer resets another 4mins.
AND AGAIN, another Titan blocks our ship from landing.
but thankfully it moved and the ship was able to land.
FFS lads.

we already exhausted all of our stratagems after countless other titans and chargers rushing at us a the extraction point.
but you are right bretheren. no excuses. democracy is not freely given. it must be fought hard.

By Laboured Go To PostThat's great.

By DY_nasty Go To PostDefinitely not lolyeah
they are a pain because they seemingly don't care about smoke and will shoot from across the entire map, but my partner and i were beating lvl 7 missions with randoms and no voice chat even with all that and the bug where multiple ships were being called in from patrols
By Kibner Go To PostyeahThat's why I'm saying you need Comms at the higher difficulties with bots. Stealth is a real game changer when facing them so you need your team mates to run diversion and draw their aggro while you MGS your way into their camps.

There is a reason people found a parallel to MGS5 movesets.
By Kibner Go To PostyeahProne helps when they're shooting, A LOT.

For me it's loadout. A lot that went from bugs to bots are pretty underprepared; when weapons that are great against bugs arent necessarily good vs bots.
By Flutter Go To PostProne helps when they're shooting, A LOT.Yeah, prone and loadouts are huge. Those EMS Mortar sentries are goat against bots.

By Dazenheimer Go To PostAnyone else suffering a lot of crashes?not since i changed to dx11
also, if you are using arc throwers, tesla tower, or new shotgun that is also an arc weapon, they are prone to causing crashes.
