It’s addictive to be at work and watch the progress tick up for VANDALON IV and watching us collectively crush the major order. But it’s giving me serious FOMO when I’m in meetings. Hoping we can crush TROOST tonight and tomorrow! Also the new weapons isn’t helping lol

The only text that matters on that entire site:

"The game master can change these values at any time."

The only "progress" you're allowed to experience is an illusion and completely arbitrary. Off the cliffs ya go, lemmings! For Liberty™!

It's referring to the rate at which contested planets regenerate HP, which represents the proliferation of enemy forces. It adjusts the difficulty of campaigns, and it's for telling a story, kinda like a TTRPG GM setting the difficulty level of fights.

I hear dedicated helldivers play on pc handhelds like ROG Ally and Legion Go during their breaks. I also hear that on Steam Deck it starts to stutter when enemy count goes up.

Meh, its ran fine on my deck. Does have some issues on startup , looks a little worse, but either the immersion or my brain fills in the rest an it looks fine after a match.

The crashes though. Thankfully not a deck only problem

Have you tried it with --use-directx11? Fixed my crash issues on my AMD desktop Linux system.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago

Generally when I've crashed, all my mates crashed as well. I'll give it a try though and see what happens!

This fixed my stutters, for anyone having that issue!

WFH thankfully, so I can boot up the PS5. I do have a Steam Deck, but I’m not paying for the game twice without cross-save. I did install a PS remote play app and fucked with that a little, but I rarely don’t have access to the TV. It’s only if my wife wants to play TOTK on the TV.

Being gainfully employed is just the worst sometimes.

Seriously, I might try to squeeze a little lunch time democracy in!
