Dude, I love you channel. I love the "What you need" part in specific the most. I cant tell you how many times I've bought products from people without ever knowing that I needed additional things.
Thanks! Hopefully I will have time to make more of these in the future
Does it Support Beyerdynamic 250 OHM Headphones or should I use 80 OHM ones?
I looked up the specs and all I can find is max headphone output is 77 mW @ 16 Ohm, and since it only has a 3.5mm jack I am not sure exactly, I have hearing damage so audio output quality isn't something I have really got in to since it all kinda the same to me, sorry but hope this helped some
So glad i ran into your channel
Glad you stopped by!
Is there any way I make it work without wave XLR ? Just the microphone
The main thing the wave is for is to turn the XLR signal into a USB signal so the computer can use it, there may be other adapters out there but I am not sure about those.
Ah, yes. The turtle in nova prospect. 🐢
Very high def turtle
Kids in 2024: OMG IS THAT SKIBIDI TOILET GUY?💀
I remember the first time booting up hl2... omg it was amazing! The physics blow my mind. The facial animation, the enemy ai... Yeah I really think hl2 is one of my best gaming memories! First time entering Ravenholm.. <3
I am sad that I missed out when it was new, It's crazy how much it feels just like games today since it was so far ahead back then. Grav gun+ saw blade FTW
@@RaiderDread-TV haha yeah the grav gun was sooo fun to play with! grabbing explosive barrels and hurl them at the enemies to watch them fly :D The ONLY thing I have to complain about was that Steam was required. I just had an old 56k modem at the time. It took like a whole day to dl. and when I'm at about 95% it crashes... the next time the same.... My uncle had broadband so I took my computer there and got it finally running after days troubleshooting... but man it was worth the hassle! I think I was about 15 and I remember how hot Alyx was ^^ Sorry for the wall of text :P
There is another prompt in the latter half of the game that shows you how to control the squad AI. If you press C you can send them to a location, and double tap C to have them follow you again. Regardless, dealing with the AI is frustrating. Hope you have fun with the episodes! I think episode 2 has the best gameplay in the entire franchise.
I was trying to use that in the buildings and it seemed like it just wasn't working honestly, but it's a small compared to the all the good this game has in it, I can't wait to get some time to play episode 1 and 2
cant believe skibidi toilet stemmed from half life 2
I had to look that up and now I really wish I didn't lol
@@RaiderDread-TV lol
great review, I wish for your success
Half Life 3 Next !
Yes, it is.
First off I want to thank everyone for taking time out your day to watch and leave comments also I am glad yall are still enjoying the game, I was not after about 95 hours of game time. I got tired of the weekly nerfs I even made a video on it . The I got some hope when the CEO stepped down to take over the creative side (yep made a short video on that too) This patch was a step in the right direction but it still needs some work for me but I am enjoying some of the buffs and balancing compared to what the balance team used to do which was not fun to experience for me. All the other stuff outside the game (Sony doing sony stuff, their Community Managers not handling things in a good way and being dismissive ect ect) is also a factor in why I am disappointed and used that in the title. Probably not the best choice of words for a title but I am still learning all this stuff since I started like a month ago. The game is getting better and a couple more patches like this one I think it will be in a good place....for me. Like I said I am happy yall are having fun and pushing the higher difficulties That's not why I play this game so it's not a good fit for me anymore maybe in a few months when they get back to where they were when it launched that was a good feeling I had a blast with all my freinds and that fun got chipped away slowly with nerf after nerf so I stopped playing and moved on . ~Dread
I wished they didn’t nerf high pick rate weapons to force us to chose low pick rate weapons to compensate for the nerfs than buffing underperforming weapons to be on par with the weapons that were performing well to actually balance it out in a positive outcome
It never was...
Was never a disappointment to me..love the game. And think the devs are doing their best
Well we know who cried hard when the railgun was originally “nerfed”
"still a disappointment" helldiver was NEVER a disappointment, the game is not perfect, but to call it a disappointment is just wrong. "wasted 10 bucks over a warbond" the fact that you didnt play the game enough to be able to get the warbond without real money involved tells me enough about your opinion.
Yes it's still a disappointment
I love how people say things like that just to farm engagement online. It worked, state your findings
@@mr_inconspicuouscrickets
How dare you ask these questions, i smell treason
For me what keeps me from playing more is not a buff or a nerf....its the fact that the game (which I really enjoy) crashes in over 50% of the Mission which means the lost of everything achieved and therefore no advancement and so much frustration. Difficulty, good weapons,, bad weapons, pros and cons....I could totally life with if it would run stable...
You must have a low end PC then cuz on PS5 I've only had one or two crashes in the last month
@@mr_inconspicuous definitely not 4090, AMD 7800 X3D., 64 GB RAM...its the low from the top yes ... :-) but i Read a lot of the Problem...they want to fix it....
ID look into your hardware..I have very few problems on my PS5
@@RobertArmstrong-xm9zg must be a pc thing
@@Johnny-nb7eg Is the game installed on an SSD? I remember having a ton of problems with Starfield until I got an SSD. It might be the same with Helldivers?
4:34 This to me just sounds like you need to play on an easier difficulty. It's too bad that you're having trouble beating missions that are harder, but lowering patrol spawns just makes the game worse for people who are already hitting the skill ceiling (solo 9). It is wild that you want the game to change for your benefit at the expense of others only to satisfy this arbitrary decision that you should be playing on X difficulty.
I agree with level 6 being the sweet spot.
was never a disappointment, next
There is no reason to continue playing, maxed out on samples and has to be a reason to show up. Starship troopers will be out soon maybe that's what we need? Hell Divers isn't it, great idea for a game but you failed. Now it just freezes or crashes and I have other games that know how to really take my money
Oh then this game isn't for you, they don't want to waste your money, they're for people like me who wanna have fun and rp with strangers
Playing a video game because it's fun doesn't really mean much to ya does it bud
@@brandenpedersen5127 I’ll never give up on my Minecraft because it’s a great game
Fuck somehow gta 5 is still alive lmfao
@@mr_inconspicuous Strangers kill me more than the bugs, also the crashing is annoying. I have other ways to waste my time
Helldivers was NEVER a disappointing. Yes, there are disappointments in how the game is being handled, but the game itself is great fun.
Seriously. So tired of all these youtubers complaining in every video on one of the few games in the industry that is very much trying to do right. Gamers wonder why the gaming industry behaves the way that it does while actively being ungrateful to the developers that mean well. Not to mention the fact that AH is a SMALL DEV TEAM OF ~100 EMPLOYEES.
i have already uninstalled this game after 600 hours of playing and have everything maxed out plus lv 150. the game was NOT saved by the patch, the game was changed on something VIA Code into % of defensive Values that's all.. NOTHING was Balanced and some weapons STILL got nerfed for NO reason.. too many games are coming out like in 10 days to give a Fk about this game anymore.. the "Fun" aspect of this game was taken from us by ONE DEV = ALEXUS(balanced proclaimed tool of an individual) and now it cant recover due the the SONY incident and many other NERFs to come.. but yeah milk this game for content while its still on life support. im just calling it how i see it. this game kinda died 1.5 months ago. justifying this game is till good is a copium some corporate lapdog mentality players have since they dropped 30-40 dollars on PVE game that is Being NERFED on the reg. i for one will tell you Alexus will make sure this game dies sooner than later.
touch grass
@@silberlung3440 ive been touching grass clown. Go fuck yourself can you do thay for me?. Always one of you with the basic bitch comment.
Literally everything you said, you could see how wrong you are with a couple google searches. Go back to cod
You're either 40 or 12, either way you're a liar and an idiot.
@@mr_inconspicuous tf is cod? Sure corporate lapdog believe what good old google says. Everything ive typed on my comment is 100% factual. Maybe you should go back to baby back bitch feelings hurt clown world. No sorry i hurt your feelings.
Yeah I also don't get why we spawn with only half of our gear without the booster
Because in Super Earth, ammunition is a priviledge, not a right.
Bruh they will let us throw airstrikes at pelican 1 (apparently 1 single stratagem costs more than a citizen makes in a year) but they won't give us a few bullets, stims, and grenades
Because no one is stopping your team from dropping the first resupply and each grabbing one and now boom, full ammo, grenades and stims. If you die oh well, should have played better.
Well the eagle strike's attack starting duration has been increased, the orbital laser's attack duration decreased, so you still get nerfs, just untold now
as well we massively increased defence and HP for shrieker nest, and spore fog dispenser
the time until impact hasn't been changed. It depends on the planet's modifiers, like it always has.
@@jcgongavoe337things they did long ago that were in old patch notes. Stop being so angry at video games
Well I didn't leave because of nerfs or anything, I left because I did anything that could be done and had anything that was of interest to me and my 1-2 hours of playing at night when the kids are in bed shouldn't be enough to actually do that this fast in my opinion. I will definetly return as soon as there is enough new stuff that will make it interesting again
alex the balance dev was not fired lol
They're still not negotiating with SONY for reverting the region lock.
That stopped a long time ago dude
It's like the Xbox players, it's never going to happen.
Game was never "gone". What happened to every good game happened to helldivers, just in a perfect storm situation. There were always going to be players who played for a month or two, then left. As for the balancing changes, I wouldn't have noticed any of them if the patch notes weren't public. So in conclusion, the game was never gone, you just didn't like some of the changes they made. It was, and will be playable. Nothing they have changed has made the game unplayable at any point in time. People just don't like having to aim in a tac shooter for some reason.
Yeah, I have been enjoying the game from the start and I keep on playing it at least a couple of times per a Major Order.
Same
Exactly. Helldivers will always have a fan base. But if they want to get a larger player base they need to make other weapons more powerful and release new updates and content.
@@EverlastingLife_Band Personally I don't think anything in the game needs to be more powerful than it already is. The game isn't a vertical progression system like an MMORPG, it's a horizontal progression system. We are regular people fighting giant bugs and robots. We just happen to have a giant military budget to throw away. Guns/strats aren't an increase in power, they're an increase in situational efficiency. The game's weapons aren't a one-size-fits-all system because that's how it's designed to be, ie cooperative. You take the things that are best for the situation and helping the squad finish the mission. Too many people get mad when arrowhead releases stuff, and that stuff doesn't allow players to brainlessly one-shot the entire game. You aren't supposed to be able to face roll everything.
@@zeke3672 I should have worded it differently. What I meant is they need to scale other weapons so players have larger build variety on higher difficulties. There’s clearly a meta in the game and it limits the options players have if they want to be affective
As if it were your first time. F off grandpa parrot
i understand gen Z first time playing half-life, but you have no excuse 🤣....
Grandpa parrot is lying
Computers were prohibitively expensive in the 90's and I was saving for a car so I just missed it
@@RaiderDread-TV lol
@@RaiderDread-TV I wouldn't call you grandpa if I werent one too. From a refugee family and we had a Computer and car. My parents came to the country I live only knowing please and thank you in german
As a half life fan - this is a great explanation for such a small channel. You better play the rest if you haven’t already
I have played through Opposing Force and Blue Shift as well as HL2 but I did it on stream so I am planning on replaying them along with Black Mesa. I am planning on doing a HL2 review in the near future and maybe a lore video if I can wrap my head around it enough lol , Thanks for the kind words
@@RaiderDread-TV have you played the episodes? If not - would be nice to see a video of those too
@@thecanadiankitty2 I have not played the Episodes yet but they are on the list
@@RaiderDread-TV You definitely should, trust me.
I am going to to replay Half-Life 2 since I played it on stream and that makes it hard to focus on the game but the video is in the works!
Bro not gonna lie, i remember when i got my first computer and my friend put like 6 shortcuts to games on a cd and gave it to me. " hey take these game we can play togheter " I was so happy until i got home 🥲🥲
I've had that happen twice to me and it's painful each time
Peak thanks for reccomending me this channel youtube
Peak
can I use the Wave Link xlr without a xlr mic because the mine is not giving any output audio and i have no xlr mic connected
You should be able to use it as a audio mixer with different channels if you are not using a mic. Might be worth looking up a software only solution for audio mixing, since the wave is expensive if you are not hooking up a mic. The only reason I got it was that I needed a converter for XLR to the PC so there may be better options out there for your specfic use case
When speaking as the balance team would you mind using a russian accent?
I will start practicing lol I have a hard enough just stringing a sentence together on my own
It's Arrowhead Games, Not Battlestate Games 😂 They're Swedish
@@scurjj It's an inside joke
I don't know how I found this masterpiece of a channel. You were recommended to me, and I'm loving it.
Thank you! I am glad to see you are enjoying this
most underrated channel ive seen,keep doin the amazin work!
Thank you that means a lot to me !
@@RaiderDread-TV you're welcome!
Great video man, good to see people still play this game for the first time and like it. Subscribed!
I play games of this era while my newer games rot in my Steam l;ibrary
you should play black mesa now, and half life 2 after. great review.
Thanks! I have played HL2 but not Black Mesa yet, I will add the HL2 review to my list of things to come soon
@@RaiderDread-TV play black mesa is worth it
*screenshot of Black Mesa and Half-life 2 in my steam library*
great video but I bought a new mic the fifine ampligame with usb c, I tried buying a different cable with an xlr pins and usb c end but it doesnt connect with the wave xlr and it comes out as loud static through the mic and I cant plug the mic regular through my pc cause it wont detect it with my wave xlr connected do I have to buy a new mic or just not use the wave xlr?
if it's a usb-c mic then the xlr cable won't transfer the sound the right way, I havent tried this but I *think* if you plug the mic into the pc you can go into the mixer assignments for the sources like with the game sounds or discord/browser ect. and select the mic as to sound source for a aux channel through the software. if the pc isn't picking the mic up try unplugging the wave and plugging in the mic first launching the software then plugging the wave in after. Hope this helps some
@@RaiderDread-TV thanks for the response I tried it and no sound is coming through but plugging the mic first worked but the wave xlr didn’t work properly after, tried restarting my pic but it just reset its self back so the mic didn’t work. is there any mic you could suggest or should I just not use the wave xlr until I find a better way to fix this issue
@@FlareTheNon using a microphone with a xlr out put should be the easiest thing, I found one from the brand you use on amazon. Search for 'FIFINE XLR/USB Dynamic Microphone for Podcast Recording ', that should just be plug in play with a xlr cable. if you wanted to get fancy Shure makes a bunch of quality options as well but they can be pricey depending on your budget, I am using a Shure MV7X with XLR only output since it's about $100 cheaper than then usb/xlr combo output just for reference.
As one of your oldest buddies, jokes on you. My dads already dead 😂
You got my first pin ever
It happen again...barb over buffed....men that sucks
Didn't know about the upcharge on Vahalla but not surprised, Ubi bad always been bad
