Is there any trick to finding the optional objectives or is it truly just running around empty parts of the map until you see them?
I believe if you do the optional objective that raises the satellite dish, you'll then be able to see everything on the map, but other than that I got nothing.

If you get a radar they reveal them

So are people still running the Breaker as their primary?
i will be. i have always been conservative with my shots and only do single shot aims. it was a little frustrating at first but its still probably the best weapon for primary imho.

Anyone still using the Railgun,
i still need to do some runs with it again, but from what i can tell, i will still be running it. i always used it on unsafe mode, so im use ot it. now i just need to charge a little longer than im use to. That being said, i feel like i had some shot ricochet off armor that im fairly certain i had enough charge on, so still got to test.

jmarto1 and I were just in the same rando game together 
But yeah, I'm struggling with finding the new sweetspot for the Railgun in unsafe mode. Seems like I'm not stripping Charger leg armor in 2-3 hits consistently.
Flamethrower does good damage, but I feel like I hurt my teammates every time I use it

Anyone know what is going on with the rewards from the last major order? Seems like a lot of people didn’t receive them.

Sorry about almost cooking you with that orbital laser
Posted on 3/7/24 at 7:50 pm to jmarto1
No worries. I felt like I was cooking everyone with my flamethrower so I stopped using it, and then I felt really useless.

You can find mech suits on the new automaton planet

I encountered a meteor storm last night right as I was getting to my objective (take out the illegal broadcast). Right before I could begin my assault, a couple of meteors took out the tower. I congratulated myself on my astounding luck as I turned to head to the extraction point. Right as I got atop the ridge to start the evac timer, a meteor killed me.

I've had them take out some bug hives for me

Mech suit stratagem has been unlocked for anyone level 25+!

Just did a rapid test run :
-Limited ammo , 15 rocket and 1k gatling, can't resupply
-Was in trivial and bug destroyed it, so i assume anything can damage it
-No hp bar or anything, there is fire when starting to get low, i let the suit die, died instantly to "burning" . It didn't look like it can tank that much, maybe the worth of 3/4 helldivers, need proper testing
-Can't use stratagem or anything while in it, look like you can't loot either
-2 use on 10 min CD.
-The ship that drop it fire a bit at enemy
-Movespeed seem faster than walking, but not sure about that,
All in all seem like it's designed to enable a big push/defense , but not to carry you for a whole a mission

Ran it a couple times on Helldive vs bugs, I like it, it fills a gap for "I want to plant my feet and fight at this objective".
Durability seems fine, rocket ammo feels pretty limited but it's enough to kill a few bile titans or several chargers. The minigun feels less limited and is good against everything else.
I definitely wouldn't run it all the time especially if I have a reduced strategems modifier, but I'd probably run it for exterminate, rescue VIP and geological survey. It would also be useful for defending the final extraction point if that's something you care about.
I wish you could rearm it from a backpack, I wouldn't be surprised if they add a "vehicle resupply' backpack in future along with other vehicles.

I saw it in use a few days ago. Must have been a dev
Posted on 3/8/24 at 2:16 pm to jmarto1
Yeah, I feel like devs stealth dropped them in games the past few days, but now everyone get buy the stratagem. Well, sorta. It appears the servers have crashed because too many people are trying to acquire the stratagem

Hey everyone!
With the successful push from the community to take Tien Kwan and the subsequent enabling of the mechs our servers have a hard time coping, the team is aware and doing what they can to mitigate. This intermittent issue is caused by too many trying to acquire the mech at the same time. Service will be restored eventually, but for now I ask for patience.
I am so impressed by the combined power and dedication of the @helldivers2 community. You all are massive heroes liberating Tien Kwan 4x faster than we thought

I think the one where you load the missiles shoots down enemy dropships.

Everyone gets a mech as a free stratagem within a game right now. Must be a special limited time perk because I didn't buy the stratagem but I'm messing around in Trivial missions and I can call one down.
And TIL that if you use first person view with the Railgun you can perfectly charge it in unsafe mode using the power meter

Can't even get to my ship right now. Mech shite causing problems I bet
Posted on 3/8/24 at 6:10 pm to jmarto1
I was able to finally get in and run a mission. The mech is a glass cannon. You don't get enough notification if something is attacking from behind and it will kill you in just a couple of hits, the firepower is pretty nice though I would like better targeting and to choose between gatling and missiles.
Once you use it, you can't call in another for that mission (at least not the freebie version).

Man, what happpened? I got the "Allied Destroyer has left the mission" message.

Same on my end. I figured the network lost connection. I called down a mech and was immediately blown up by someone shooting me from behind
