day one of playing absolute vortex until i beat it.
>first attempt: joined a lobby with an afk host. the second guy disconnected after 5 seconds. the third guy didn't vote to kick just stood there until the host powered off his console. when a lvl 3 assault joined instead he looked at him and disconnected, changing the timer from 120 to 3 seconds. I didn't manage to step off the landing pad in time so I had to wait for the mission to start and then left.
>second attempt: joined half way through the mission with some nice russians. when we entered the three psykers area a helbrute spawned, I tried to outshoot him while he had 1% hp left but he downed me. Russkies pinged restorative stims for me. I rushed to the astropath and used the stims thinking we're leaving, but one of them turned back and searched for something, which left me back with 10% hp and a mortal wound, so I disconnected out of shame.
>third attempt: after an extremis ping i turned back to see if there are any enemies behind me, then started shooting things in the front. then two terminators appeared behind me and stabbed me bringing me to zero hp so I disconnected.
>fourth attempt: got downed when four flying goats aggroed me at once, luckily a nice bulwark healed me. We were approaching the final droppod and I was happy I will get my wound cleared when a helbrute spawned just before it. I panicked, tried to backtrack to the previous turret, but got killed by some trash mobs and got on a timer so I disconnected.

Lads, am I making my life harder by just playing solo? I'm 40 hours in, still learning the ropes and started doing substantial difficulty operations since I'm already breezing through average. I feel that the difficulty spike in substantial is more about ammo conservation than actually thougher enemies. At what point do you guys think is a good time to jump to multiplayer?

Siege mode changes have been live for 3 fucking months and people still have no fucking idea how to play it. And a lot of the problems and frustration surrounding it is the devs fault, honestly. They give you no way to filter who you're playing with and your only solution is to watch loading screens and you STILL end up playing with shitdicks because the devs don't feel any need to teach players wtf they're doing. You'd think with all the fuckin loading screens they make you sit through the least they could do is put loading screen tips and informational graphics up.

I've been saying it for months, the least they could do is share information about the game with some tool tips in the loading screens like how other games have item descriptions or provide some basic advice about the game while we're stuck in loading screens.
Nowhere in the actual game does it explain what the difference between fencing and blocking is and other crucial info about gameplay. Those little gameplay tips stuck between DLC and patch release announcements hardly fucking count.

I'm new to bulwark but if I'm using the fencing power axe the AoE parry damage is just way better than the +30% damage boost right?
180 damage nuke that can knock enemies around you if you're stuck in feels like it should help a lot.
I use the +30% damage on power fist because I prefer block on it but the power axe feels like it's supposed to try and play as fast as possible and thus better with fencing and gunstriking.

Fact: The only reason you care about melee is to wank off the score screen pretending you're good/e-peen wank. In reality there's no reason to fully engage in melee unless you're an actual melee class like Bulwark and Assault.Parrying and spamming E is all you'll ever need.

"NIDDERS could be here" he thought. "I've never been in this sub sector before. There could be NIDDERS anywhere." The cool wind felt non existant against his bare ceramite breastplate. "I HATE NIDDERS" he thought. Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War 1: original soundtrack: track #13 - Force Commander Theme reverberated his entire apocalypse class battleship, making it pulsate even as his monthly ration of amasec circulated through his colossal genetically reinforced veins and washed away his (merited) hatred of xenos after a warp jump. "With an apocalypse class battleship, you can go anywhere you want." he said to himself, booming ear piercingly out his helmet's vox caster.

So the 2-Year Anniversary Edition is the play here if I want the base game plus fun cosmetic stuff? Weird that the Season 1 and 2 bundle end up being more expensive, since they don't come with the base game, but the Anniversary Editions do. Usually other games subtract the difference if you already have the base game. Guess I can just refund and repurchase

I would very much like to know why SM2, being a co-op game and all, has only 3 players in a squad instead of 4? I know Muh lore says a team consists of 5-man, but in this day and age 4 people in a team is a no-brainer for a co-op game. Wtf?

5 players would fuck over lobby queueing, imagine being in a region where there aren't a lot of players and/or only active in certain periods; it'll be like PvP where the host has great ping but everyone else has 100-350 ping.4 players would make Absolute and hard weeklies/strats more fair to the player and Saber don't want that. Also imagine 4 players wanting to play the Techmarine and/or any new class, their spaghetti netcode would revert to year 1 same class lobbies which would lead to players quitting and joining.

Space Marine 2 does not have a playerbase that can support and sustain mass 4 or 5 man teams, it was only possible during release month where there were 50k-200k players daily instead of 10k-12k todayMost SM2 players are in America or in Western Yurop with small playerbases scattered all over the planet

In a coordinated group, an extra body with the perks that come with it would be massive
You'd have to totally rebalance the game, even the hard absolute+ weekly challenges would be pretty easy to clear with 4 people
I mean I would like to see 4 man squads but it'd definitely fuck with the balance and if you rebalance too hard you risk tuning the game for actually good players and making it borderline impossible to play in randoms lobbies
And yeah I think you also have the problem where if you could stack two of one class it might further fuck balance, imagine having two heavies and they rotate their shield cooldowns to maintain as much uptime as possible
Although honestly having to pick 4 unique classes might end up making more people play Sniper/Vanguard
You join a lobby and Tactical, Tech Marine and Heavy are all locked, what are you playing? You could grab Bulwark or Assault, but maybe Sniper starts to look more appealing. And maybe Sniper is even better with 3 other bodies taking the heat off you, but I haven't played it so I don't know

I think Block would be infinitely better if you couldn't piss away your 1st stack, and it would always be held in a stock pile until you hit your 2nd stack, and then you'd get the explosion. IMO this would make Block stop being so passive at times.

If people need to be begged to play ranged classes despite the utility, it's stupid to think the attitude would change if we got yet another class that doesn't have melee favor. Therefore the best selection for the new class currently is
>chaplain/judiciary>librarian>>>>>>>>Naked neophyte with a fork>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Apothecary
No wonder people laugh at the premise of healing. You can't get these niggas to shoot. They are slowly turning into world eaters/black templars. It also explains why TS are hated. The excess melee class horde are trying to run at the termies firing rockets and the snipers won't do their jobs.
