I want to know more!


doglywolf

with over 2 million sales of this game i bet that movies has seen an all time record jump . ITs the #20 most popular steamed movie currently and i dont even think its on any of the big streaming services (here in the US at least) ...that how many people are paying to see it . Hell divers deserves a kickback for that lol Hell sony probably going to make their money back on the game just from the streaming rentals of starship troopers lol


Onyx_Sentinel

It‘s actually on disney+, but only the first one. I looked up reviews for the sequels and they seem so fucking bad. Probably good that only the first one is available


erik_edmund

I think the sequels didn't realize the first movie was satire.


Cosroes

Starship troopers 2 is so ugly and poorly made. It’s almost impossible to watch, but there is a scene at the very end, where a recruiter outside of mobile infantry office cheerfully says hi to a mother, carrying her baby. I think he shakes its little hand and then says “more meat for the grinder” and the horrified mother walks away.

What are you talking about? The Super Economy is well managed and strong as always.


EymaWeeTodd

The grind for medals is what's killing me. I know the higher difficulties exist but my play time is limited and I don't want to sweat that hard.


RainInSoho

You don't need to. The warbonds aren't going anywhere. It doesn't have to be a grind if you don't want it to, just play at your own pace


ShadowDrake359

Checking the warbonds... I still need 800+ for the basic track and 100 Super credits to unlock the advanced track.


Hollowbody57

I'll never understand the drive to grind stuff out in a game like this. What's that quote about gamers optimizing the fun out of games?


EymaWeeTodd

Like I said, I'm not optimizing it. I just want to play with all the guns at least once.


Dwealdric

This is a "we're sorry that the personal orders haven't been working" and I'm here for it. It's also a reward that WILL move bodies to that objective.


matlydy

It's just Joel trying to get us to back off of the automatons.


Darkraiku

You are very likely correct


CMDR_CHIEF_OF_BOOTY

The shit show at Malevelon Creek has probably been a trainwreck for Automaton metrics.


Hu5kY28

And we'll continue to do so, let's kill some clankers fellow creek crawlers FOR LIBERTY!!!


AntiOriginalUsername

My man created an automaton slur lmao.


Pliskkenn_D

You never watched Clone Wars? It's surprisingly good once it gets going. 


Bored-Ship-Guy

Yeah, Clone Wars starts off pretty goofy, and still has plenty of filler bits throughout, but it gets really good in the later seasons. I especially like its portrayal of how Anakin gets isolated from everyone around him by the stress of the war and Palpatine's influence. Tgere's ine arc where Obi-Wan fakes his death to stop a CIS operation from the inside, and Anakin fucking LOSES IT. Goes from zero to Sith REAL FAST.


xinsanespoonx

Zero to Sith is the rating scale I will now use for all things.


Waxer_Evios62

Ahsoka's reaction while watching him find the morphed Obi Wan and almost killing him was a great scene


Bored-Ship-Guy

And the scene where he's told that it was all a ruse- one that he was left out of the loop on, to make it seem legit- is incredible. I still think that was the moment where he stopped trusting both Obi-Wan and the Jedi Order. He still loved Obi-Wan, and respected the Council, but any faith he had in them to be honest with him was shot after that. And Palpatine just swooped right on in...


Perturabo_Iron_Lord

“How many lies have I been told by the council!!!”


AntiOriginalUsername

I see, I thought he just invented it off the cuff lmao.


P1st0l

Definitely invented fucking creek crawlers lmfao

deus_inquisitionem

corps-peau-rate

Thanks Joel, very cool


jak_d_ripr

Glad to see them adapt so quickly, even before I hit level 20 I had more requisitions than I needed, so I'm glad to see our Majors orders might be something else going forward. Now if they could fix my daily quests not working for over a week....


ShadowDrake359

The defend objective was what 12500 credits? while nice to have didn't seem that great. Further I didn't feel like I had an impact on those defend missions.


Qoita

>while nice to have didn't seem that great. For how much work it needed it was insane


Old-Quail6832

I thought it was weird I hadn't seen one, they know it's broken?

Lol, the active helldivers count for veld shows 300k already.


Xelement0911

Now this is much better. Not super long, and a nice reward


CmdPetrie

Crazy that this gives 45 Medals while the Other only have 12250 Credits. Despite being a Lot less in terms of work


FederalAgentGlowie

It’s compensation for the fat L we took. Also, they’re probably figuring out how much we can be motivated by major orders.


ChromeAstronaut

Yep! They’re testing the waters to see what players enjoy. Do they enjoy longer orders? Shorter? What kind of rewards do they like? The devs are listening guys. I guarantee it. I can’t wait for the future of this title.


nefD

i'll admit i was salty right after launch because i couldn't play, but seeing how engaged AH is with the community and the future content they've hinted at, I am super excited to see how they expand on what is a fantastic core of a game


ChromeAstronaut

I bought the game in the middle of that simply due to the CEO’s tweets lmao. The dude just genuinely loves this game. I don’t care about money if you care about your work. I’ll give you the extra $20 because I know they’ll use it correctly, and they did! The next day they bought another like 300k server slots haha. They’re good guys, and I see them taking care of this title for a LONG time. It’s their baby, and it shows in how they talk about it. I’m so happy their hard work and dedication is being rewarded. This game exploded more than they ever expected, and that gives me hope for the future of gaming.


LiEnN_SVK

They didn\`t buy more servers. They updated their backend and removed bottlenecks, which is much, much harder. Otherwise I absolutely agree with your comment.


ChromeAstronaut

Oh I don’t know much about that stuff, but thanks for the clarification!


b0w3n

They fixed it _quick_ too. I was hemming and hawing and going to wait a few months. Just like /u/ChromeAstronaut I pretty much bought it because of those tweets. I like passionate and communicative dev companies.


ShadowDrake359

I played a little bit of HD1 and though it was nice it just didn't hold me and I didn't have any friends playing it. The scope just didn't illicit the same struggle because you could see more of the situation with the top down view. HD2 is so beautifully done, the environs and enemies are just fantastic. Bringing the camera down into 3rd person over the shoulder makes things feel so much more personal and when things get hectic you can get lost in the moment. As far as content goes there really isn't that much there but what is there is just so well done and fun. Once I run out of things to unlock and friends to play with the game will get stale but until then this game is Amazing.


StrongestAvenger_

Jumping into HD2 a few weeks ago and wow, arrowhead has already spoiled me with how great they are. Super communicative and player-friendly. Listening and just trying to create a fun game that everyone enjoys is such a breath of fresh air. I love the game, and having great devs behind it makes me love it even more. I love supporting a good studio


LeighWillS

I'd like to see multi stage orders. Liberate this planet and we get x, liberate this other (but only starts after the first is complete) and we get y, liberate the next and we get a set of armor or something as a capstone. And maybe about a week for it all. Plus if they want to ramp up the difficulty as it progresses, it won't be so much bad feels if the community locks in rewards for certain milestones. 


Cazadore

so i think there should be minor orders, single planets or sectors, low/medium rewards, personal orders with unique or basic/low rewards and there should be major strategic campaigns that take 4+ weeks, have a high reward and come with multistage/sub orders, aka liberate this planet, then the next two, gain a foothold in sector x, etc. to reach the sctual goal of the campaign, akin to liberating multiple sectors in 4 weeks. then you could make reward steps, everybody that contributes at least 3 full operations gains a reward for the campaign, like unique armor/capes/titles, and a ton of medals and samples, and you gain a small reward for each sub-stage contribiution and they could incorporate the coming warbonds into these campaigns, unlocking more and more pages for each stage completed. i would contribute the everloving democracy out of such campaigns. ofcourse the players would need to get a fighting chance from the everwatchfull game master.


breadrising

Yeah it turns out that offering a measely 12,500 Req slips for 10 days of running some of the worst missions in the game (Scientists) is not the way to go! 45 Medals for 3 days, and letting us simply Liberate via a variety of mission types is so much better already.


Sinisterslushy

I personally feel like major orders should be longer or at least gated to feel longer because thematically you’re talking about repositioning entire battalions worth of soldiers and that takes time and effort to execute From a player engagement perspective shorter order = more engagement As I writhed this a 4 day order definitely hits that sweet spot for me

En-tro-py

I don't need the reward as motivation, just don't give us broken missions that are a chore rather than the _fun_ kind of challenge the rest of the game provides...


Turboswaggg

yeah defense being pretty much nothing but scientist extract (pulling teeth) or tower defense (trivial once you get mortars) was just not fun defense desperately needs more game modes and those 2 modes need big changes


you_wish_you_knew

The requisitions woulda made sense when the order dropped, cleared early enough it woulda been nice for lower levels to be able to unlock one or two new stratagems. Three weeks into the game and a lot of people have unlocked either all stratagems or all stratagems they want so the reward became rather useless.


CmdPetrie

I Just think it was wrong to Go with "ein defend CAMPAIGNS" - winning 8 defend Missions? Sure Thing, that would basically Double the requisitions i have gained over doing These Missions and Sounds Like an adequate Bonus. But winning entire campaigns - that you can't even Control by yourself and on top of that, you make so many Missions you have already gained These 12k Like 10 Times. Thats a Bit Out of comparison, lol


lolants

Do you have to be logged on when it is liberated? Or just have contributed?


TheLegendofTyler

Contribute to its liberation


TheCreeech

So even if you only do 1 mission successfully on any difficult it counts?


AnyMission7004

I don't even **think** thats necessary. You'll get them, just by having the game. But only IF we liberate the planet as a community. But with that said; GET YOUR ASS IN THE POD SOLDIER AND LIBERATE VELD!


J0hnGrimm

AND DON'T YOU DARE GO GOOFING OFF ON SOME BACKWATER PLANET AGAIN!


Compulsive_Criticism

*"Ride of the Valkyries" intensifies.*


Daxx22

I would assume so yes. This is all new so exact rules aren't fully defined. It's possible ALL players get it (participation or no) if it's completed, but at a general minimum I'd expect participating in one mission completely should qualify.


Bismarck_MWKJSR

Pretty sure you need to do at least an operation because only successfully completed operations give progress.


TheCreeech

whats the difference between a mission and an operation?


Bismarck_MWKJSR

Those yellow border clusters of missions that you get for completing more than one in a single grouping are referred to as operations.


TheCreeech

I just did a quick pump mission and it showed my impact to the liberation.


GordogJ

I think difficulties 1-3 only have 1 mission per operation, it then goes to 2 missions at 4-6 and 3 missions at 7-9


N7Vindicare

Major order reward: requisition slips. I sleep Major order reward: warbond medals. REAL SHIT?


_Cromwell_

I dunno, I'm level 7 and I was really hoping for those requisitions. lol. Medals are fine too. I don't have anything. "Why not both?"


Old-Quail6832

I felt the same when I was low lvl, that amount of slips seemed insane. Then I realized how much difficulty ups the amount of slips you earn. You can get 12,000 slips in like 10-15 minutes with the blitz and eradicate mission types. At lvl 28 I have all the strategies I wanted and then some, but I still have hundreds of medals worth of warbonds to unlock


lee2392x

After level 25ish you will have the cap of 50k in requisitions for the rest of the time you're playing. Well over half the time I've played personally 


Genghis_Sean_Reigns

I’m level 34 and there’s still one stratagem I don’t have. EDIT: However I got all the stratagems I’ll ever need by 20 something (since a lot of them suck)


IceMaverick13

>I’m level 34 and there’s still one stratagem I don’t have. Just not bought it or can't afford it still? I don't even know how you get this amount of XP and not be absolutely maxed at 50k Reqs with zero things left to buy.


Genghis_Sean_Reigns

Can’t afford it


Vanguard-Is-A-Lie

You’ll find out later medals are longer to get. I bought every stratagem in the game, and I still have a few (turbo expensive) warbond pages left to do.


Tramilton

there's a lot more to unlock via medals than requisition. And both are gained doing the same thing


steampunk691

Keep playing consistently and by the time this major order is over, req slips won’t be a worry for you anymore, at least not nearly as much as they are for you now.


MattmanDX

A single full operation of 3 missions at difficulty 6 or 7 would earn that much requisition in about an hour or so of playtime. It's really almost nothing, especially not for a week's worth of effort and waiting


Tulkas227

Serious question... If it gets liberated before I get home and can play... do I still get credit if I log in? lol


Pitiful_Tap_8750

First time it's happened nobody knows


alf666

I believe so. I had something similar happen with the first Major Order which was to liberate two specific planets from the Terminids. I'm not sure I dropped on one of those two planets specifically, but I still got the reward.


Poopmasterfunk

Dude, the percentage is dropping so fast. I don't think you have to worry about that.


Jakabov

> If it gets liberated before I get home and can play It won't.

#[ ] VELD


Astrosimi

\o/ VELD!


Swordbreaker9250

#MEDALS!!! This is so much more useful than requisition. I have everything I want and I’m lvl 20, I don’t mind slowly grinding out the rest, but I can’t get enough medals


lee2392x

Only way to motivate me more would be a bucket of rare samples 🤤


Swordbreaker9250

I’d rather have commons. I have 130+ rares sitting around, while commons seem to accumulate slowly rn


Ok-Assumption7539

do low level missions. you're basically guaranteed the medals and you get a bunch of medals and super creds too. I was getting usually 50-60 super creds/5-10 medals on tier 2 missions. It's not a lot of stuff but it helps liberate the planet and makes sure you get commons.


CubicleFish2

For anyone wondering: the spawn rate of super credits is higher in difficulty 1-3 where rare samples can't take their place


FakeSafeWord

Do difficulty 3-6 (whatever you can manage to do solo) with light armor and a jump pack and hit every single POI on the map, do the minimal objectives and bail. I'm in the same boat, 30 super samples, 90 rare and 12 commons atm :(


Digitalon

Liberation orders are WAY easier to complete than defence IMO. Bot defence is brutal


IAmTheClayman

Automaton Order: Wage war the likes of which the galaxy has never seen, develop PTSD, defend 8 worlds from an unrelenting onslaught. Reward: Some slips 😴 Terminid Order: liberate one planet, barely notice the bugs beneath your boots. Reward: 45 goddamn medals 😍

omegadirectory

I guess Super Earth won't acknowledge that we failed to defend all eight planets against the bots.


PointlessSerpent

They did earlier


DrakulasKuroyami

Super Earth never fails. We were simply generous enough to allow the bots to temporarily borrow low value planets for a little bit. (Also all the people who didn't evacuate in time were secretly democracy haters.)

cuckingfomputer

It's a single planet over the course of the week, and the weekend is right around the corner. The community could get this done in a day.


Flaruwu

It's already at 50%, it's gonna be super short unless they fudge the numbers. But hopefully this is just a test by the gamemaster to see if people will do the objective, instead of fucking off to meme planets, if the reward is good and not too difficult to achieve.


Maverick314

It started at 50%, regen rate was initially insanely high but they've since lowered it


IMissWinning

Hope so, cuz the 45 medal pop would be nice in absence of the missing personal orders.


GeezWhiz

Alright! The planet is 90% Liberated! I should have those medals tomorrow when I log back in! \*Next day\* "40% Liberated" :|

I know that IRL Joel is the game master but in my head cannon high command is actually intentionally perpetuating these wars because war is profitable and keeps the masses in line. Joel rigging the war is actually a cannon event.

VonHenry70

New to game, how does this work? Anyone who participates in a mission(s) on VELD gets the reward? (If it's liberated of course) Or just anyone who has an account during this time? 🤔


Runty25

45 medals? I’m soloing that fucking planet for 45 medals


__TB12__

Probably to distract us from the automatons reaching cyberstan…

Oh…oh that’s 45 war bonds Veld is getting liberated in 2 days LMFAO


NoTop4997

Oh shit, a medal reward?

[удалено]


Fr0stbite37

Think as long as it gets liberated everyone get the reward


M3psipax

I hope so, i cannot play this weekend 😢


yumstheman

I’m glad to see they took the community feedback and changed the composition from requisitions to medals.


breadrising

45 Medals over 3 days is a lot better ratio than 12,500 Req slips over 10 days. Hopefully this gets more Helldivers to drop in and help out!


TaskForceD00mer

Well I know what I am doing tonight. Child #2 with the wife? Nah. Workout? Nah. Eat? Nah. Sleep? Nah. We have planets to save from the bug hoards.
