Just Spear the fricker
The Spear is really buggy for me (get it).
But seriously, this enemy really fricks up the entire way the game plays. There are so fricking many of them on difficulty 7.
I don't understand why the bots get so much variety but they just think shitting out 20 chargers is fun.
Use first person, it locks much easier, have not had much problems since I started doing that. Just did some diff 7 on Angel's Venture and I easily had enough rockets to deal with every charger.
I'll try that. I never bothered to go first person with the Spear because it felt pointless.
because they made only two heavy units for the Buggs and everyone can easily shit on the other one (Bile Titan isn't a heavy, its a boss)
the problem with the charger is the armor, and the very very limited ways of interacting with armor.
>Take MG-43 on rank 7 dive
>Max out RPMs
>Shove machine gun up chargers butthole
>Blow it the frick out and have it bleed to death
Damn bro, so hard.
Take a video of you doing that to 7 chargers every 14 seconds.
>anon posts video
>it's just him getting gangraped by 30 hunters and 4 chargers
Won't need to, because there is seldom ever a situation where 7 chargers are alive at once in my games. Play with friends and open the mic, tardo.
You aren't going to become white by agreeing with swedes
I love running around the map and not fighting, what a great experience
The Spear is absolutely awful, don't listen to this guy. Maybe when it gets fixed.
It one shots Chargers from the front and 2 shots Bile Titans, its sleept on so hard
yeah if it ever locks the FRICK on Black person
any time I pick one up it never fricking locks on to anything
frick you and frick yourself with your spear
Get an actual fricking dodgeroll that vault is so gay.
>big enemy that charges at you and is faster than you
>entire body is pure armor that shrugs off even big booms 90% of the time
>but their ass is vulnerable, huge, glowing and makes a fleshy sfx when you hit it
>conceptually they're meant to be the bull enemy you can't outrun, you're meant to sidestep their charge then hit their vulnerable ass
>but their ass for some reason has 90% damage reduction
>takes several breaker clips in the ass just to make them start bleeding
>even explosive weapons rarely ever oneshot the ass
>you're supposed to ignore their ass and actually shatter the seemingly invulnerable armor on their tiny legs (legs that are barely connected to their center mass)
>for some reason shooting a few bullets into this leg makes the charger instantly die?
>completely backwards design for an enemy who charges at you and leaves their ass exposed to you (and their legs ironically inaccessible after the charge)
>sometimes they sit completely still for no reason while you kill them
>sometimes they vault over terrain like they're hacking
>sometimes they make 0 noise when charging
>sometimes they ice skate like crazy and do that weird glitchy little hop if you get in melee range of them and ragdoll you 50m even though they barely moved
>the spear (a rocket launcher tailormade for armored enemies) has a glitched lockon issue with chargers and doesn't always oneshot them even though it's meant to if you hit the head
>high difficulty bug missions are fricked because instead of creating a healthy variety of enemy bugs, they just mass endless chargers which turns the missions super tedious and renders a lot of tactics & weapons pointless
>the best tactic for dealing with them is an unintended exploit where the backs of their legs loses its armor value for a second while they're drifting
Chargers are the biggest blunder by these developers so far. Needs a rework badly.
The fact that the glowing weakspots on bugs are the tankiest parts of them...the entire system with dodging the chargers and shooting them in the back being the WRONG thing to do
What were they thinking?
>but their ass for some reason has 90% damage reduction
for some moronic reason flesh is weak to explosives but tanks the frick out of bullets
nothing in the game tells you this of course,
I just wish Recoilless didn't shoot nerf footballs
I just hate the whole infinitely spawning shit. Makes higher difficulties just a speedrun instead of fun
Where do I hit a Bile Titan with an EAT?
It sometimes seems to do fricken nothing when I hit his face.
you're aiming for the side of his head or his face, his head itself isnt a critical weak spot
at least from my experience, that's why you can stagger it when you shoot him with its mouth open
I think i should make a video how to kill these fricks, would make me a hit over night. Cant believe people still struggle with these after day 1.
One is easy. Two is manageable. But good luck trying to deal with hunters + biles while half a dozen of these fricks are charging around. Let's see you kneel to reload then or aim for the back of their knees with hunters in your ass.
Easy.
Its not about killing 1, its about killing 10 every 10 seconds.
>just use your stratagems guys
this planet and mission is cancer, I got lucky with the super samples spawning next to the extraction so I could immediately pick up and dump them at the landing pad then rush the nests
the 12 minute time limit means you really have to blitz this shit though, 3 minutes for the pelican to land and all our stratagems were disabled by the destroyer leaving at that point
I mostly play difficulty 7 with a flamethrower and guard dog and I've never really had issues with them. Just communicate, ping them when they're far away so people see them coming, and have half your team prioritize them while the other half deals with the rest.
The real pain in the ass are these guys, showing up in hordes of 10+. They take damage completely inconsistently, their big glowing butt is an instakill half the time and half a grenade launcher mag the other half, and their bile spew does insane damage and has a broken hitbox. I'm seriously sick of getting instakilled by things that I can clearly see NOT HITTING ME
One player with Anti-Materiel Rifle or Railgun to just continually headshot them as soon as they show up
Just run they are easy to dodge. You dont need to kill all bugs reduce the number move to the next obj
A team with EATs can take out 12 chargers per encounter
Too many hunters and spitters for that kinda shit.
not just chargers but also bile titans and armored bile spewers
>call down an eat drop
>pick up one
>ping the other one multiple times
>2 different teammates with no support weapon just run right past it and ignore it
Most people piss and shit themselves if anyone touches their gear so probably better to play it safe. Though some players aren't even light-sensing so who knows.
I started playing after the patch. I don't care if its worse now, is it still decent and fun?
Unsafe mode is unchanged. Safe mode is much weaker even at full charge and has little armour pen for charger.
The flamethrower on the other hand is now a monster.
i had to stop playing because these boys made the game too frustrating even on challenging.
wish I hadn't got the game but i had to follow my friends chasing fotm slop
What is with this complaining. I've been clearing Helldives with 80% success and been having a blast.
Git gud
