Rentlar,

Real Helldivers pros use Increased Reinforcement Budget.

Technically, real Helldivers bought Superior Packing Methodology and don’t bring up the fact that it’s inoperable so as not to piss off the Democracy Officer. 🥹😅

Dabundis,

Run out of grenades

die

spawn with grenades

👍

Nommer,

I find it’s worth taking. There aren’t a lot of good boosters out there. So if the stamina and health ones are covered I’ll take this one. Missing out on 2 stims and 2 nades kind of hurts. And if you drop in hot or get reinforced in the middle of a firefight having those extra 2 stims can be enough to get out without dying again. Especially with random because most of the time that resupply will be on CD because some chuckfuck decided to go solo and call in resupplies who knows where.

7355608,

Just like in the Magic the Gathering health is a resource, in Helldivers lives are a resource and I like to spend that resource.

Yeah, others’ first.

I use the same logic when I throw my friend’s reinforcement on top of the bile titans.

Marafon,

Doom drop for Liberty!

Mokopa,

So long as you get it close enough they can hit it, all good… Not much worse than dropping in beside a bile titan.

Gotta get that Hellpod Power Steering module. It makes it feel like you can hit anything you want!

Mokopa,

It’s the next upgrade I’m getting, I’m just 30 common samples shy.

jballs,
@jballs@sh.itjust.works avatar

Nice! It is surprisingly fun. I saved it to the very last thinking it would be a small difference, but that is not the case.

littlebluespark,
@littlebluespark@lemmy.world avatar

It’s like going from steering by leaning and actually having a stick. 😱

Wyrryel,

I just die so much that I don’t need the extra ammo and syringes

jballs,
@jballs@sh.itjust.works avatar

It’s like that Jedi bell curve graph and you’re on the left side .

SpruceBringsteen,

Stop shooting the Erupter near me then, I was fine before you decided to “help.”

I’m sorry I decided to take that, the grenade pistol, and the Auto cannon and have permanently rag-dolled you… But I like explosions!

Well atleast its not the Arc thrower, Blitzer, laser pistol and tesla towers.

Ethalis,

I’m so used to playing with that booster on that it feels awful to not get full inventory on respawn

givesomefucks,

I mean, 20 respawns, 4 players…

In a 30 minute match you’re getting a single free supply pack every five minutes. Max benefit averages over the team if you use all respawns.

There’s better options.

It’s almost always better to take something consistent than something that only helps after a certain thing happens.

aBundleOfFerrets,

Honestly! Spawning in with only two grenades is terrible

jballs,
@jballs@sh.itjust.works avatar

Yeah if no one runs the booster, I immediately call in the resupply when we land. 2 grenades and stims is some bullshit.

littlebluespark,
@littlebluespark@lemmy.world avatar

Wait. That’s not how you’re supposed to play? Bullseye a bug hole/bot fab with your pod, clean up stragglers, drop a supply (on a hole or other stragglers) and then call for your support weapon/jetpack… Then, begin the mission.

Right? 🫠

jballs,
@jballs@sh.itjust.works avatar

I try to avoid dropping hot if I can, just because it sucks so much ass to get rocked by heavies before you can call down your support weapon. Still, it does feel gangster as hell to land in and murder a whole patrol before they can call in backup.

littlebluespark,
@littlebluespark@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah, I hear that. It’s not every time, but there’s just something about riding that bullet through the entire atmosphere to orbital strike the fuck outta a POI and jump out swingin’. I’ve had my share of Chargers and/or Titans waiting outside the door, but still: the looks on their faces before I’m wet paste? Worth it.

TheAlbatross,

I leave that one for the lower level players to take so they can feel like they’re contributing to that part.

Also, I die a lot.

JoYo,
@JoYo@lemmy.ml avatar

theyll just disconnect after their first jammed reinforcement.

jballs,
@jballs@sh.itjust.works avatar

I do the same thing. And then cringe when they take something else like decreased extract time.

MentalEdge,
@MentalEdge@sopuli.xyz avatar

What?! Extraction isn’t even required for the mission to count as successful!

Such undemocratic inefficiency.

jballs,
@jballs@sh.itjust.works avatar

Exactly! It’s a worthless stratagem from a democracy point of view!

MarauderIIC,

And you can block patrol spawns right now by standing in the right spots anyway, so why bother speeding it up?

Tire,

I just realized that the boosters effect everyone 🤯

Aussiemandeus,
@Aussiemandeus@aussie.zone avatar

Yeah I was an embarrassing level when I found our resupplys are for everyone

Tire,

Same. I thought I was being a cool guy sharing my personal resupply with the team.
