Honestly, my knowledge and opinion on animation in video games can be summarized as; “Does it have ragdoll physics? Yes or no.” Because Ragdoll physics in games is like having Jeremy Irons in a movie where he’s allowed to scream, “THIS SCENERY IS *FUCKING* _DELICIOUS!!!”_ and go completely ham on set. It won’t SAVE a bad game (or movie) but either of those things will automatically bump them up AT LEAST one letter grade. F to an D, a B to an A, you get the idea.
I think there are 3 factors that make teamkilling acceptable in both Helldivers and Magicka: - little consequence, you can just resurrect your teammates back up; - plausible deniability, "I wasn't aiming at you, you just happened to be there"; - exaggerated effects, your buddy gets to see his body ragdoll into the sky or burst into a shower of blood and guts, it's entertaining;
@jpjfrey5673 they are but not to an insane degree. Each helldivers technically can die 5 times relatively care free before being put on the cooldown. Similar horde games will rarely give you such, usually chosing to put you on a downed state with gradually worsening effects the more you go down and usually a pretty constraining situation to get fallen teams back. Unless a death happens under cooldown at the end of a mission or once the timer has ran out, it has relatively little consequence.
You can still have armor with Democracy Protects, even if you didn't get the Super Citizen or preorder bonus. In the first warbond there are two armors that have Democracy Protects.
I will say that's my only gripe with badgers vid is that he kinda framed it like it was a pay to win kinda armor by not mentioning that OTHER armors had that same perk.
One of my favorite loadouts in this game is one I like to call “float like a butterfly, sting like a bee” where I often use the railgun and jetpack, along with light armor, so I can fly around like a madman, blasting chunks out of the enemy while also being super squishy
Problem with Railgun was how meta players keep hijacking random matchmaking games. Literally second after join you could get kicked by host bc you dont have Railgun
To be fair, regarding the recent nerf. People used a flamethrower for anti-armour purposes and were surprised when it no longer functioned as anti-armour.
I believe The Actman made a review video about the game, and his theory on why team killing is fun for that game is the best I've heard so far. Definitely recommend you to check it out.
@Kaltsit- sc2 is on life support and milked dry, poor Koreans, warcraft 3 has a terrible quality not even Blizzard made it but it's on their name, Overwatch 2 diversity-friendly and woke bullshit quality is very poor makes the predecessor look much better on the early release version of it and the work environment on the Blizzard studio is questionable Diablo = p2w World of Warcraft writers just killed the game and the story smh 😂
@@brandrex6618 I’ll be honest, it’s not the woke stuff that makes Overwatch 2 bad. They don’t even do that much of that in the game. It’s just the game in general and how it’s handled
Since I have my fan on high all the time in Texas and my gaming chair was bought at a garage sale, I can confidently say you can be cold in the summer.
The gaming industry is just sad at this point. Helldivers and lethal company had a few months of unbridled success, and now helldivers is dropping off (I hear NOTHING about it now) and lethal has slowed down but is still being played.
Nah both are obviously losing players form their peak but that is because it is silly to expect games that have a simple repeating gameplay loop with no requirement for grinding to hold their peaks of players forever. It just isn't logical. Helldivers has not had a big world shaking major order in a while that is worth covering like it was the case with the creek or the Meridia black hole, and the new stuff added in escalation of freedom was mired in the un-nessesary nerfs of weapons that didn't need them. But there is still a healthy player base for a game that is not crushing your spine for not playing it daily. As for lethal company. It is a 5 bucks indie game with an even simpler repeating gameplay loop. Who in their right mind would expect it to keep it's peak players when most of the enjoyment is based around first discovery and the associated horror and goofiness that goes with it.
Honestly the weapon argument is valid but it hasn't bothered me, though I fight Bugs primarily. Unless the orders say otherwise, a sector needs immediate help, or I want to mix things up, I stick with Bugs. My drop weapons are the Shotgun "Slugger" from the Base Warbond and Revolver "Senator" from the Veterans Warbond. They're manual load but a headshot in Warriors and lower deals with that (Hunters suck because of their side jump but that's a minimal issues). Then also I use Impact grenades. My Strategems are kinda the same as Badger. I have an Airstrike, Shield, Quasar Cannon, and something else as a situational wildcard (typically an AC Turret). With armor, yes I run the 50/50. Aside from armor bonuses and stats, everything else is cosmetic. With Boosters, I just apply what I think we might need.
There's no need to preorder to get the Gambler's Special - there's an armor with the same passivve in the base warbond everybody gets for free. Just need some grinding for medals.
Hey Jack. I know from other videos about your fascination with cults, and I have a rather obscure one for you to look into if you haven't heard of it before. It was called the "House of David" and it was active in Benton Harbor, Michigan in the early 20th century. Very interesting group of people.
Oh wow, are you in a new scenario? Looks super clean, my god! Also the cosplay at start of the video.. woof. 👀💦💦 And again, loved to see that Gary/ZyZx_ is now part of the Badger's team.
Just yesterday i and my team were waiting for the pelican to arrive just 3 of us sitting there while our fourth was running away from a bile titan that spawned after our ships left and i ran out of ammo for my mech,it took so long for the bile titan to kill my team mate that the pelican arrived right as it got him,but since i had some time before getting in i waited fir the bile titan too come close too our landing pad and walked the mech off the clip on to the titan and immediately crushed the undamaged titan in a second,i wish i new that it would work before it killed the other guy.
I don't know if you like to react to geopolitical explanations, but IF you do: "Volker Pispers about USA" is an awesome 45-minute video about the American state fooling around in world affairs, especially in the Middle East. And you're one of the only reaction RUclipsrs I watch at the moment because you actually have useful and intelligent things to say about most topics....and I like your humor.
I'm so sad this Badger video got me hyped again for Helldivers right as the game royally fucks over it's playerbase with some CM antagonizing players on the Reddit and Discord. Everything that was fun got nerfed hard and we've been over this already, these MFs don't listen or learn. The CCO's cool though, he gets us.
by the way there is a bug for the mines that makes them invisible to some people and its random who it is or how many so yeah the invisible mines thing is real had that already happen more than once to me.

Honestly when badger made this video, I thought it was an ultrakill video...
You poor unfortunate soul
not the only one man
Ultrakill would be the only other game where a coin could turn a nuke back
Helldiver = Survive a nuclear detonation through a coinflip.
Ultrakill = Cause a nuclear detonation through a coinflip.
Yea, yea when (if) he does do an ultrakill video that’s what he’s gonna call it
I love how the devs very soon after this video, addressed all his points in detail and promised to work on them

And Helldivers is not a bad game

- exaggerated effects, your buddy gets to see his body ragdoll into the sky or burst into a shower of blood and guts, it's entertaining;
Ayo? You play Magicka too?!
The "little consequence" part isn't true: reinforcements are limited
@jpjfrey5673 they are but not to an insane degree.

Badger is just so chill that it lowers his body temp perpetually Mr Freeze style.
Badger IS built like Mr. Freeze mixed with plastic man
Wait, did Badger just do a merch shout out for his friend?! Muffuckin stellar
Fed Jack isnt real, he can't harm you.
Fed Jack:
Jack would be a great fed.
The game theory music in the background during the lore bits is a nice touch.

The first warbond is totally free too.
I will say that's my only gripe with badgers vid is that he kinda framed it like it was a pay to win kinda armor by not mentioning that OTHER armors had that same perk.
Hearing skullker just talking normal feels cursed
Holy shit look at that biceps, paired with your moustache and glasses you look like Magnum
The borderlands movie is 106 minutes ish and it feels 2 hours. Badger made a 90 minute video that feels like 5 minutes.
One of my favorite loadouts in this game is one I like to call “float like a butterfly, sting like a bee” where I often use the railgun and jetpack, along with light armor, so I can fly around like a madman, blasting chunks out of the enemy while also being super squishy
Problem with Railgun was how meta players keep hijacking random matchmaking games. Literally second after join you could get kicked by host bc you dont have Railgun
Yeah I'm sure it was just because you weren't using the railgun 😂
I heard coin, nuke and survive, my first thought was ultrakill 💀💀💀
Just what I needed to watch with my breakfast
Love your edits Jack!

Jacques/Jack looks like a 90's Fed
One thing i love about jack when you tell him something in the comments that he didn't knew before he really remembers it
Golden rule dont make a game that is number 3 except half life still waiting
Blizzard so bad at making games they somehow messed up how the 2nd ones are usually way better.
@Kaltsit- sc2 is on life support and milked dry, poor Koreans,
warcraft 3 has a terrible quality not even Blizzard made it but it's on their name,
Overwatch 2 diversity-friendly and woke bullshit quality is very poor makes the predecessor look much better on the early release version of it and the work environment on the Blizzard studio is questionable
Diablo = p2w
World of Warcraft writers just killed the game and the story smh 😂

@@brandrex6618 yeah no, the diversity shit isn't even the problem, there's a lot more wrong there than character pronouns/skin color
Sc3 was my favorite game when I was younger
I don't know if I can watch that loooooooong
How will you will be able to hold on bed man?
@svolozhanin7627 so true it's like 12 am at here
If the narcoleptic reacter can, so do u
20:51 You underestimate the cooling power of Mom's basement dude.
YES!! My ship was Fist of Family Values from day one! Lol dads punching family values back into democracy.
The Exo does have a melee stomp and not just the passive one from walking around but an actual stomp but no one uses it.
woah woah woah... I love the counter sniper 24:00
Just in time for lunch let’s goooo
47:53 all I’m hearing is “play Titanfall 2” /j
1:04:42 I STILL CANNOT ESCAPE THE FUNNY JACKPOT MAN
One of the funniest things you can do is as you go onto the ship, just smack the other guy off the ship and get in. Disrespect to max
I dunno if you noticed it,but badger's now using s2fm and that pretty powerful!
I got so happy hearing Lostplanet 2
Ah yes Comitting WAR CRIMES in name of DEMOCRACY 😂❤
You look like that Sargent from halo you know the one
Jack: "Oh, I know what the ladies like..."
The thing is you have a medium armor like this sith the 50/50 chance to survive and also not affected by bleeding
you can get one of the 50/50 armor sets from the default warbond
The German localization had a bug where the opening was completely silent until the recent buff. 🧐
Since I have my fan on high all the time in Texas and my gaming chair was bought at a garage sale, I can confidently say you can be cold in the summer.
You don't have to pre-order to get an armor with the 50/50 passive, there's one in the free warbond

10:56 true reaction moment
There is at least 2 other armor with same 50/50 trait... I run only in them
me as a german dont know why the german intro is so funny for others...
20:53 by cranking the ac to 50 so your pc doesn’t overheat when you overclock it to play shmentai games in 50k
It would be cool if you reacted to RubixRaptor's Helldivers 2 video.
I've been watching your videos for 3 weeks now and just realized I wasn't subscribed. Just fixed that, by the way.
oh look its Easy-E!!!
Question:
If you could make a gamersoups(not gamersupps) flavour
What would it be ?

Hello :D
Hiii :D
Is it me or did badger sound like really tired. I definitely understand why but he just sound like he had a bit less energy in his voice
But we are getting an new Warhammer game
Hellmire is way worse than Malevelon.
Fun.
Comment tribute
I feel like nerfs are the least of an issue for the game
