OP after getting out of the hole, seeing how bugged explosion effect pulled him in the first time: https://preview.redd.it/eonlfnzsdowc1.png?width=800&format=png&auto=webp&s=f7885ee1eeea10baa112bb92c055d3cf1b3410ba


gdub695

Bro that shit had me rolling šŸ˜‚ after he got out the second time and turned around I thought ā€œthereā€™s no way heā€™ll do it againā€ BLAM


Snooze36

Right, like, okay, this time something else is gonna screw him... nope.

_OP_is_A_

Is that the way the game normally looked? I must have some nostalgia glasses on. I thought the character models were much better than that in farcry 3


BaronAaldwin

They are. I know Far Cry 3 suffered from the classic Ubishit downgrades, but the model isn't *that* bad in game. Was IGN playing on PC low settings or something? Edit: [Proof](https://youtu.be/rKMMCPeiQoc)


_OP_is_A_

Thanks a ton for this lol. I thought I was going crazy.Ā 


BaronAaldwin

Yeah it is surreal. I played through it for the umpteenth time not long ago so I *knew* it didn't look that crappy haha Edit: did some further sleuthing because I'm an autist. The gif is from the E3 trailer for the game [(here at 19s)](https://youtu.be/jzsJ1oU-XMk), meaning Vaas was a rare Ubishit upgrade!


delahunt

I mean, he went from minor character to face of the game during development so that makes sense. And fuck, that brings me back. I loved this game. 4 and 5 could not live up to this game. I assume 6 didn't either, but by the time 6 came out I was very comfortable not owning the shit Ubisoft puts out.


MofuggerX

I quite liked 4 and 5, but the craziness and awesome villains in 3 still puts it over and above its sequels.


LeahDGaming

Wii maybe?


adaemman

That second shot had my crying.


Novadreams22

Oh man this shit has me laughing my ass off in a restaurant


Thevishownsyou

I was laughing my ass off. "Holy shit you made it! Twice!" Seeing him turn around "no no no no dont dk it again you cra..." he did it again hahahaha

close the thread. this is the only comment that needed o be posted


FiveTenthsAverage

LOL


imanaxl721

In your defense, the knockdown damage from the Eruptor pulls you forward which makes no sense. Its an explosion. It should be blowing you away lol

Casey090

Why would "demolition" and "democracy" start the same, if it wasn't relevant?


Wolfie94

Shooting too close with Autocannon does the same lol


Robot_Nerd__

Yeah, I found it very confusing. Not what I expected.


Qman_L

It's probably because they coded things around the explosion to be knocked in the direction of the bullet. It looks pretty normal when all targets around the explosion get knocked back from a distance, but when the explosion happens up close this is what we get LOL Wild guess maybe I'm super wrong


skirmishin

I think someone accidentally inverted a vector that calculates the direction the explosion is in to the player, it's easily done and I've made the mistake before on pet projects, some pseudocode examples: Correct - `player.velocity += (player.position-explosion.position).normalized*distance*explosionForce` Incorrect - `player.velocity -= (player.position-explosion.position).normalized*distance*explosionForce` Incorrect - `player.velocity += (explosion.position-player.position).normalized*distance*explosionForce` EDIT: Repaired examples, I made the exact mistake I was trying to explain lmao, it's that easy to do Explained here - https://www.reddit.com/r/Helldivers/s/QrQSsnyYFD


ChuckTownRC51

I think they will come out and say it shoots implosion rounds to explain it. Lol


aaronwhite1786

I wouldn't be mad if the patch for it accidentally bugs it to comical levels the *opposite direction* where a simple grenade sends everything just soaring through the skies.


skirmishin

`player.velocity -= ((player.position-explosion.position).normalized*distance*explosionForce*1000)`


aaronwhite1786

*That's the stuff.*


IcyPyromancer

Crakrocksteady

Just started teaching myself to code, and while this doesn't look like python, I can pretty much read it. I think it's working. And I appreciate the random code comment that let me sort of gage my understanding.


TheBeardedDrinker

I love using the Eruptor alongside a Stalwart, Laser Cannon, or other support weapon I can run as my main. However, I very much dislike dropping in with an Eruptor. There's always the chance that you are hot dropping into close combat and will have to toss the team toward the enemy a couple times before you can call down a support.


RaizielDragon

If I land with an eruptor and am surrounded, its running away time. But seriously, you could try running stun grenades. If you get caught in close combat, use stun grenades and your secondary


ToastyCrumb

Grenade launcher too.


DeltaIII

I think a recent patch broke this. Probably a stray minus sign, but most explosions move you towards impact instead of away now!


foxaru

Quaternions are hard


MunkyDawg

I'll bet I can't even pronounce it


UnoriginalStanger

It's been like that since before the eruptor got added with the autocannon and it's been like that with the eruptor since i unlocked it a day or two after bond release.


coeusgfg

I've been vacuum sealed by the eruptor many times but I'll never learn my lesson


rW0HgFyxoJhYka

Every patch adds 10 more bugs. This game will be on of the buggiest games that you can actually see the bugs every game of this year.


AMasonJar

We squashed two billion of them, how many more bugs could there be?!


stormquantage

They fuck up the explosion physic code at the same time releasing a full battle pass about explosive weapon. They didn't even acknowledge it on last week patch.


RedditMcBurger

Just like when they had a pass with arc resistant armour and an arc weapon, just as arc effects are crashing the game. The bugginess of the game is fucking with all the content they release, they aint doin so great.


Disastrous_Piano837

Same with grenade pistol.


treehugginggranola

I came to post this. I can't use that gun because of how many times it's pulled me right into whatever bigbad I was trying to kill. It's so stupid and frustrating.


TheFrostyFaz

Everytime I get pulled in, I always just yell at my friends how stupid it is.


Geeekaaay

Its all explosion damage done by you to enemies as it appears right now. Every boom to close to you, drags you under the enemy, instead of blasting away from them.


Sekret_One

All the explosion projectiles have this bug now- the eruptor is just the most obvious. I have a hunch it was done as a crude 'fix' to ensure that anything hit by explosions got rocketed away from the player and not do quirky things based off where the projectile technically hit (solve charger corpse getting flung towards you for example). The problem of course being that the player, and things adjacent or behind the player get vacuumed when the blast is too close.


dangerdad137

Nope. Enemies hit by this get pulled towards you.


Cheap_Database_4152

Maybe it's an implosion


StockDunce

Explosion bug myself once, shame on the devs; explosion bug myself twice...


coeusgfg

General_Totenkoft

In fact, ATM I just treat the eruptor as if it launched Implosion rockets.


GoombahTucc

Fool me once, shame on ā€” shame on you. Fool me ā€” you can't get fooled again.


Impish3d4

Bro I thought explosion bug was an actual enemy for a second


StockDunce

Oh, it is: https://preview.redd.it/yy6ih4tk3qwc1.png?width=2400&format=png&auto=webp&s=96da56dece8ae6cf1f28a9bb11eb795946cf778a That's just not the explosion "bug" I was referring to, lmao.


CubicleFish2

how come you don't have the circle that shows where your bullet is going to shoot? You're shooting the wall every time and the explosion bug kept pulling you in.


coeusgfg

I play with most of my HUD toggled to "map only," for immersion. It really *feels* like I blew myself up here


CubicleFish2

*instantly turns off HUD*


Flight_Harbinger

The eruptor turns like an aircraft carrier. If you don't wanna play with the guy that's fine, just remember to give your aim about half a second before firing to let the gun catch up. Sometimes even a full second.


Illustrious-Baker775

I upvoted you simply because everyone deserves to play how they want. Wanna get 100% immersion? Go hard my guy. We look up to you.


FlacidSalad

I look down as that is the direction of the bug pit they valiantly, and repeatedly, dive into.


AWeakMindedMan

I saw a video once of some streamer dude with a ā€œfull immersionā€ room. Like when he gets shot or killed, the lights in his room lights up red. When someone (or him) throws a smoke grenade, a fog maker behind him goes off. Itā€™s pretty hilarious

I thought it was just the Forklift exploding and I was like "yeah... hate that..." and then "ooooooooh". PLEASE tell me you had the grenade pistol as the secondary weapon, thus further preventing you from extricating yourself from that... delicate situation. Edit: Spelling and wording.


coeusgfg

I could lie and say that I wasn't running default pistol here, but then I'd be lying! Hindsight is 20/20. Lol


HothMonster

Default pistol? Bro, the redeemer on semi-auto is the default pistol with double the anmo.

OpaOpa13

Presumably they had more waiting for them at the extraction point, or else they spent the first 9 minutes of the mission clearing exactly 1 POI.


[deleted]

Chargers need to be louder & donā€™t need a 0Ā° turn radius, run up hills & over walls, letā€™s nerf a shotgun tho


Katamari416

unfortunately a lot of the audio in this game would be explained if this was a top down game like the first one. which is probably why its overlookedĀ 


creegro

Holy fuck this I'm SO TIRED of these mother fuckin chargers just making a turn on a dime mid charge, going up and down 90 degree walls easily, or even just skating past you for 40 feet while their ass bounces up and down all the way to a full stop. I say, at least make their entire ass their weak spot when you don't have a rocket for the head available, that would balance it out a bit


SenseisSifu

Did Joel secretly buff chargers? Them baddies turn on a dime now


FrothyFloat

Thatā€™s what they did when the game first started as well


ActuallyFen

But you can hear them coming from a mile away. They have a loud ass charge roar and the "thu-thunk" of their footsteps (legsteps?) is very iconic.

Geeekaaay

Goddamn that explosion bug is KILLING ME all the time. Drags you UNDER the target you just shot instead of away from it, make it ten times easier for them to follow up with a killing blow. Honestly some of my most frustrating runs have happened since this bug came along.


HowDontYouKnow

It's okay bro. I'm this bad too. Actually, worse. I wouldn't have thought to jetpack out of the hole.


FrazzleFlib

yeah if you turn the hud off you wont be able to tell where you shoot, what the fuck do you expect lmao


jmartinez3232

For the love of God please get away from that hole with a damn charger in it


DeadSpace-665

I see a skill issue you should know the aiming in the game has a swap but he trys to turn and shoot too quickly


18SmallDogsOnAHorse

Can someone edit in the John Cena audio when the charger comes in and absolutely wrecks this dude?


Ares_Lictor

Skill issue...all of it...


RollinHellfire

This became NSFW because you got so F\*cked it's not even funny. Yeah, the f\*ck physics explosion dynamic kinda breaks immersion, doesn't it? I think of it more like a grav-gun. Imploding things... well. Imploding humans and exploding aliens. At least all other ordinance can still send you flying into the right direction tho!!!

superchibisan2

That was fucking hilarious. I feel like there is an update that just happened that fucked iwth aiming over edges. I've had more than clear shots and my gun shoots the ground in front of me, causing similar situations to this one.


ViceyThaShizzle

Yeah I still foolishly try the hellpod vengeance against things like tanks, hulks and chargers. But you miss by an inch and it doesn't die, then it turns around and smacks you for the attempt. Only time I do it now is if I know someone is being chased by a heavy, then i'll try to help them out by killing it. But solo... I *should* never do it again.


Complete-Struggle648

Bruh why would you turn back around and not throw grenades from a safe distance? Or even just ESCAPE


MulletAndMustache

Doesn't OP know that as soon as you go down to the double doors it spawns a patrol to come fuck you up?


BRUTENavigator

Got greedy... you think the 1st and 2nd time would be a warning...


Tanktop-Tanker

The biggest issue here is the stupid broken spawn system. Nothing on radar, nothing in a 180 degree vision in front of him, no small tremors so it couldn't have been behind him, and the fucker just spawns out of nowhere. Happens a lot in bots where Hulk and 10 patrols just spawn out of nowhere.

Kazeite

My brother in Freedom, you willingly went inside the confined space even *after* hearing that a charger is after you, got out of it anyway, misjudged the explosion distance on your Eruptor, and then did the *exact same* mistake again. That death was entirely preventable and is entirely on you.

Gotta love how the Eruptor pulls you into the explosion when it hits too closely rather than blowing you away.


jhenryscott

I mean. Heā€™s got armor buddy. It bounces. It showed you that the first time. He was calmly trapped in the hole.


Dinners_cold

My sides are killing me from laughing so hard.


Ok_Insurance_5899

I'm not sure why you died the second time, but actively ignoring a clearly audible Charger AND keeping him out of your vision AND entering an enclosed space so that he can pin you AND reinforce right back into that enclosed space while the Charger is still inside while having no more reinforcement budget is not a tactic condoned by the Demecratic powers of Super Earth. o7


Arespect

Dude, its not the hellpod revenge, that was pretty fucking bold, but in the heat of the moment, things happen. What does it for me, is that you got out, turned around, used an angle to shoot down, that will never work, EVER. It pulled you down again, then you somehow stay alive, get out, and here comes the kicker. You do a 100% copy of the move that pulled you back down, DUDE, thats pure comedy, i still have tears in my eyes laughing


FuckItOriginalName

Can't you just climb up those rocks that you attempted to fly over first with the jetpack? I swear I've done that before.


LotharVonPittinsberg

Climbing terrain has been buggy since launch. It's like trying to climb in a Bethesda game: you can make a lot work, but it takes time and doing so under fire is just death.


coeusgfg

I swear I've done the same, but in this clip here I was getting the 'can't mantle' icon when I first tried to climb to freedom. I sat still for a sec hoping to get the jetpack recharge without disturbing the sleeping bear charger
