How on Super Earth is "limiting our design space" a response to someone trying to tell you how to design your game?

Honestly? How does that make sense?

You wanted feedback, we do more than that by telling you how to make your game and somehow that "limits your design space"? How does that even work?

Why does PlagueShed think they're allowed to design this game however they feel? Why don't they understand we're just trying to fix the game?

What's next? Design something based on your own intent and ideas? Is that creation? No.

It's an invitation to review bombs. So that's what you get.

Not to mention thousands of PS players ditching you for something better any month now. Mark my words. 6 weeks tops and you get the mass exodus you only set yourself up for.

Listen to the people who play the game not the developers! How hard is this to get? We're just telling you that you suck and have no idea what you're doing. What is the problem?

Literally no one likes your game or your choices, absolutely no one.

Listen to Reddit, don't make decisions.

Igaf if you have your own plans, ideas, or vision, that's not how ownership or development works. Never was.

Design how we want you, not how you intended, like any other creator would understand.

I'm so done with this game.

God do the developers even PLAY their own shit?

How can they expect us to handle the crazy spawns and bullshit on D10 solo?

it's like balance is a 4-letter word to them.

I'd like to see any of them try to solo D10 terminids with a slow reload gun like the HMG and tell me it's fine.

They can't, because they're bullshit.

What the fuck am I supposed to do?

Play an easier difficulty?

Choose a different weapon?

Play with other people?

Or, reasonably expect TrashHead to BALANCE the damned experience so I can HMG the swarmiest barely armored things in the game with a heavy weapon? (that should be 60 ergo and stopping to reload is insane!)

You're telling me the 50 cal, i shouldn't realistically be able to carry, or fire, while standing, with 100rd belt, can't be reloaded while running in armor? "Muh muh realism".

Heavy shouldn't mean heavy. What is so hard to understand here?

Coming soon my next post where I explain how:

Y'all just don't understand how to aim, light pen is better, especially against bugs which are barely armored so you just literally don't understand the game if you don't understand how light pen works.

Honestly the scythe is all you ever need against them! But ok, have your medium pen crutch.

GLAZERS will try to tell me my correct takes seem contrary without even reading a single post past the title.

Why won't BloodClotHead listen to anyone?

Edit: I forgot to add. Arrowhead is Ego > Fun! Arrowhead, not me, the guy who solo'd the hardest difficulty on a multiplayer game against a swarm with an HMG and thought it was hard.

Idgaf whatever the """"developer's"""" """"vision"""" is. TrainwreckThread needs to understand I have no other existence but to scream into a void about a video game and what it means to ME and the rest of us that have played for hundreds of not thousands of hours.

They MUST respect that I have LITERALLY nothing better to do.

I'm CONVINCED they don't take this as seriously as I do and MUST karma and/or donation farm rage over a video game. I LITERALLY have no choice but to spend my life focusing on my displeasure at what they've done to a video game I could move on from.

I have NO choice, NONE but to remind everyone how DISAPPOINTING they are because it is LITERALLY the most important thing going on in my life (and also my revenue stream, hit that like button and slap that subscribe) it is THE most pressing issue that should be on EVERYONE'S mind that:

1. A video game exists

2. it isn't how I want it

3. other people agree with me

What else am I supposed to do with anything in my life but reiterate this?

What else matters but my identity I'm entitled to, and the rage I feel at the LITERAL injustice?

"Something constructive"?

Fu-huh-huh-uuuuuuuuuck You.

My displeasure at this game is all that matters as well as the LEGIONS of people donating in superchat that validate me is all that is worth spending any time and effort on creating.

I'll never let this go.

I do this for all of you.

Sure I could do LITERALLY "anything else" but how would I farm karma or make superchat stax otherwise? Do something creative?

Shove entirely off.

I've come up with at least 2 dozen distinct names for these swedish criminals who have lied and lied and not provided ONE thing I was entitled to. There, I'm more creative than they've ever been or will be.

I could "play other games" but how does that help anyone?

How?

How does that help little Jimmy or Sally Helldiver play the game and have any fun that they're certainly not having if I don't rant and scream and reeeeee that armor transmog isn't a thing? Should I "play something else" or should I just accept more angry patrons who will agree with whatever entitled bullshit I say?

I think I know the answer.

Check out my channel where I rip into Van Gogh for not making realistic stars the way that stars should be made and how he refuses to change it based on his """"""""vision"""""""". That's not how stars work bruh, I need different stars. Also you used too much paint and I don't like the blue, change that shit. I paid to see THIS?

I don't care if it is about a "painting I should take for what it is or ffs move on" those NOT sick or hearing me have upvotes to justify me and dollar dollar bills y'all to keep me screaching. Which I will, until these so called "creators" develop the way they should! Or ELSE... IM DONE.

THERE ARE BUGS IN THE GAME SINCE LAUNCH!!!!

WHY ISN'T THIS THE MOST PRESSING THING FOR EVERYONE?!

You play "to kill time with your FrIeNdS" don't you? You GLAZING sheeple who don't know what is REALLY at stake here.

You're willing to just let them continue """"developing"""" a """"game"""" you prefer to enjoy for a few hours at what cost?

AT WHAT COST?

WHY ISNT THIS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING TO YOU!?

Strategem balls still bounce, but you play.

Armor colors don't make sense or match, but whoo boy you'd STILL log in. LOSERS!

The same samey missions that still play the same? "Oh but yeah idk I just play an hour or two with my friends and make something of it.."

WRONG.

This is about lives and livelihood, REAL ISSUES that simply saying "eh I'm not interested anymore" will not cut. It definitely won't keep my revenue stream alive anyway, and you'll never get it.

Go ahead and tell me what your favorite movie is so I can make a channel about how wrong you are. Not because I need ideas and I'm devoid of creativity but so I can prove... Idk, something... Something important to anyone willing to upvote or pay me to prove, unequivocally I might add, that it matters.

There's more than """"" a game """"" at stake here.

"ooooh but 21sacharm it's just a literal game you don't need to like or worry more than 1 second about, if you don't like it why build an identity about it like you're doing something useful with your life" fuck off glazer you'll never get it. You'll accept ANYTHING as entertaining.

God.

People suck.

I've tried so many times to just say "it would be cool if Arrowhead did..." And it went nowhere. What else am I to do but monetize rage now? What? Something useful? Name LITERALLY anything more useful? I'll wait. Oh, you can't.

Remember, you're not having fun.

YOU'RE NOT HAVING FUN BECAUSE CARCRASHFACE DOESN'T DO THE THING! THEY LIE! THEY SAID THEY LISTEN BUT THEY DON'T! ITS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING TO YOU! Don't quit, rage!!!!!!!! This is more than just a game even though that's literally all it is!

I'm fucking done.

DONE!

A real game by a real company who knows how to develop would have way more to do, cities to explore, cars to jack. If HellSlop doesn't improve dramatically by the time I'm ready to play GTA 6, it's over. You're running out of time HeadWound, get around to developing something worth playing or you're going to see your numbers drop hard, mark my words, I'm calling it, it's over. 2 years released with absolutely nothing to show for it except a forthcoming Helldivers boycott. Don't ask me how that works after I've already bought the game and put 1400 Kafkaesque hours into it and almost as many uninstalls. I know what I'm talking about. You could have hired me, you had the chance.

I've no choice but to lead the wave of GTA6 installs to prove my point.

Mark my words ArsonHeap, you're running out of time to listen to the completely coherent and unified community before the final mass uninstall.

It didn't have to be this way, this is on you.

I'm calling it now, any good reviews for GTA 6 are actually targeted negative reviews for HD 2 and it is all because you couldn't muster one single thing for anyone to do in 2 years of release of this useless trash. Every GTA6 install is a clear message of "WE'RE DONE", there's literally no other way to look at it.

FML, Except for the fun I've had this has been a total waste of my time.

I avoided the railgun forever because it's bullshit.

You have to aim perfectly and get practice with the weapon to dial it in and do anything useful with it.

What is this bullshit?

I have to use unsafe mode to kill stuff and be pinpoint accurate while doing it? What is this trash?

Why does it make sense that you'd design a precision weapon to be precise so that means I have to now try to get better at using over literally anything else?

For the effort it should 1shot everything but no, DogshitHead designs something that takes different gameplay to use vs point at thing and blow it up like that is the right move?

I had to finally give it another try and actually aim coherently to use it to find out that it's actually a good weapon.

Fuck you CovidHead, for making me use a weapon and making me have to get better at using it to be effective.

It's not that hard, everything should be the recoilless rifle without a backpack and should one shot whether I aimed right or not. I shouldn't ever have to be better at anything.

Reasonable take over.

*Pre-Edit*

Inb4 some glazer mentions the AMR.

I'd rather uninstall than even think about the lAMeR and it's recoil so don't even mention it. Why isn't everything automatic with a drum mag anyway? It's the future.

*Pre-Edit tangential rant*

Also the one true flag, despite being ceremonial in an ceremonial warbond and a literal flag should not be something im forced to take if it isn't going to 1shot at least a hulk.

WTF do you even think ceremonial shit is for? The drip alone? GTFO and stop making me buy this slop.

It's only variety if everything is equally viable in all scenarios.

Real game designers know this, not perpetual vacationers who cosplay as game developers on occasion.

Everything spawns too fast. I can't keep up with it solo!

TRASHhead fix your shit design, you're clearly the problem.

How do you expect me to solo when I can't keep up with the spawns or quickly destroy stuff that two or more could take down faster?

I'm soloing. It was easier to do before you added stuff.

You broke it.

Fix the game for me.

I refuse to find any other way to play, thus this your mistake.

Monopoly sold over 275 million units and is still played globally.

TaylorFarmsHed's spectacle of trash is nothing.

Has always been nothing.

Mind you it's got a 4.4/10 low score on board game geek which tells me more people have been trying to save Monopoly for over 90 years and it's still a better game than this apocalypse of "code"

AH give up already, it's pathetic and every lame output you do just proves how unhinged from reality you are anyway.

The day I play this bullshit again is the day I see Greg Brady sing Sunshine Day with the Smashing Pumpkins.

Arrowhead is the one killing fun. Active genocide to the concept of it.

Some of you somehow see it differently and I can't comprehend it.

Arrowhead is the problem here!

Not the patriots amongst us who have to remind you that you are not having fun, and that your insistence on playing is a hate crime against the concept of enjoyment for the rest of us. What recourse do we have if not to remind you: "If you are playing this game you're honestly ruining it." Memes and derision against the thing you "like" is not the same thing as stealing joy, it is the only sane way to prove to you you're not having the fun you think you are, so you can have "actual" fun. What else are we to do but call you a glazer?

We're slaving all hours here to remind you: you're not having fun and if you are: you're wrong. If you cannot wake up and immediately be disappointed; then you're having fun wrong.

This couldn't be clearer.

Anger until you get what you want is the only way fun works!

Also, ffs remember that even though these boards are meant for discussion and discourse, we don't mean the kind of thing where you disagree or have a different perspective. Ffs that's now how discourse works. I shouldn't need to explain that, but here we are.

If you can't understand this, blame the useless "developer", it is their fault for warping your perception and you're hopeless.

These cretins have been doing whatever they feel like without updating us with EVERYTHING like we sanely demanded.

Literally minutes go by with no communication.

Fine.

Let's start tracking. Let's get Palantir involved.

If one of these losers so much as tries excuse their way out of missing a deadline by even one second I want full workstation and email telemetry to prove to them there is, in fact, no excuse.

We need medical records: "I was sick" no, fuck off, deeds bitch not words, we want hard fucking data. I want to see your blood count. I want to verify everything you're thinking at every moment because I clearly can't trust that the only thing that you live for is this game.

Forgot to list a change? No excuses. Fall on your sword begging for forgiveness like anyone else would.

You work for us. What did I pay you for? Some game I got hundreds of hours out of? You think that's it?

This is my entire identity we're talking about!

I play Helldivers!

Do not fuck with my singular defining trait!

I want a running syslog of everything Swastikhead does should they even think of not appeasing me.

Inb4 literal glazers calling me entitled.

I'm convinced we all said that if there were enough uninstall posts we'd all collectively agree to stop whatever fun we were lying about and remove the game so we can have nothing we paid money for.

Anyone know the count? r/HelldiversUninstalled isn't a sub yet somehow and I need to know when I'm uninstalling. Did I miss something?

Or is it a staggered thing where each post is meant to initiate a 100k mass uninstall and I'm just waiting for the email if I'm in that batch? What if I miss it?

What I'm wondering is why else would there be these uninstall posts if they weren't meant to mean something to someone who already agreed with me? It isn't like I was in some weekly group with anyone how would I even notice what I missed?

There's got to be a reason? Right? A secret message?

Something I'm missing out on?

Have you all been uninstalling without me!?!? I don't use discord. I missed out on it. Is that it?

What am I missing?

Ok fine Yed Prior, woo hoo.

But at what cost?

Children were helped.

But at what cost?

The devs made it easier and stole our valor.

How can I look myself in the mirror knowing it was all a lie?

Again.

Yes, charity, etc, fine cool.

BUT AT WHAT COST?

No one cares even a little it was a 0 resistance planet?

You can sleep better now knowing a charity was helped and people had fun? So that's all Helldivers is to you?

Fun?

Fuck completely off and play a real game ffs.

No I'm not making up this take myself there are definitely people like me who can't get past how straightforward and "convenient" this all is and the truly sinister implications behind it.

Or fuck it, I'll say it:

What about all the things the devs could have been doing (cough delayed warbond cough) to improve my experience?

Someone with 10,000 hours in this game no less.

This is AH trying to literally lull us with complacency until there isn't a single dog left.

Stay angry brothers.

Keep fighting the real fight.

They did this to us on purpose.

These cosmic horrors are playing existential chess with us and we aren't prepared.

Now I'm getting super credits and doing the MO.

We're fucked.

Hide your dogs.
