Helldivers 2

I'm just about done with the super sample farm, only one more ship upgrade to get that needs them, I think after that I'll probably drop down and just play difficulty 4-6 as I've actually had a bit more fun in that range from the games I've played with randoms in recent nights. I prefer fighting the bots I think, much more consistent and manageable, bugs become too much at at times on the higher difficulties with all variation and stun locks.

Only problem I have is sometimes they spawn right on you and/or the developers seem to be being a bit cheap sometimes with the AI and using situations where you'd expect it to be clear to get the jump on you (not sure if I can explain that very clearly).

Yeah I think some planets are worse for that than others, the ice planets which take place on glaciers seem to be the worse from what I've played. Because there's so much water and mountainous areas there doesn't seem to be that many clear spots to spawn stuff in effectively, they literally materialise in front/behind of you.
 
Anyone having problems with the game today?

The last 3x games I've played I've gotten 5-20 mins in, and they've bugged out on me (network disconnects, crash) was fine last night.
 
Had an issue yesterday when servers turfed people mid game and I had to rejoin the one guy still on the map.
 
Only tried 1 game today, finally saw the new flying enemies, looks like they spawn from mini spore spewers constantly in swarms. Got to the end of the mission and the game crashed just as i was about to call in the evac.

Tried again and matchmaking is putting me in easy games lol

I've not had chance to play yet tonight but looking at the steam forums for the game there is others also having the same issues of the game crashing.

If you press O for social there is a recent players list. Maybe see if the players in the group where with are in there and see if you can re join if your back on in time
 
And it seems the latest patch broke a lot of players.

"
A lot of info now, Helldivers, but too much is better than the opposite.We know that many of you are experience a lot of crashes at the moment (seemingly linked to the patch deployed earlier today, which at least resolved the persistent friend request issue for a lot of players). Our team is deep down in the trenches digging into the issue as we speak. We are on alert ready to update on any changes here. We're very sorry @everyone for not being able to supply you with the glorious feeling of bug and bot stomping and hope to have the game more stable as soon as possible.

You can only rejoin on friends not randoms i believe.

That's a pain then.

I have said in the past it would be good to have a re-join button for if you get disconnected or the game crashes.

I have also had it a few times when extracting the game crashes but I never thought about the social thing until recently but not had the issue to test
 
FFS well they broke something today with the update, played 3 rounds, crashed at the extract twice. It was rock stable before the update and now ive crashed in 66% of my games tonight. Lost over 50 greens, 30 oranges and 6 purples
 
Looks like all my old BF mates, have stopped playing. Now its randoms, and get kicked all the time. Im not great, but im not that bad (getting old).
 
3/4 games ive crashed since this patch. Absolute ******* shambles of a patch

Edit:

Literally unplayable. 8 games now. Crashed at extract 6/8 games, rage quit 1 , extracted 1 with 1 sample because of a useless team

Looking on the steam forums people are saying it’s the arc thrower and Tesla tower causing the crashes.

I hosted two games earlier and it was stable for me but someone who joined me crashed when using the arc thrower a lot.
 
CTD'd 2 out of the 6-10 missions I've done since the patch. Annoyingly the last one was a pretty much perfect run all objectives, etc. and then mid way through the extraction timer 2 others on the team disconnected (I'm guessing crashed), then 10 seconds later I got a CTD.

Also game needs more variety of weapons with medium armour penetration.

EDIT: While I don't generally have a problem taking them out, looks like their network prediction isn't working too great on the flying monsters either - the movement and sync is a bit janky to say the least.

EDIT2:

was fine after the patch, the birds are bit of a PITA though if you're getting swamped by other bugs. You basically have to take the lazer rover to deal with them
