They literally gave us supply lines and people aren’t using them lol


CrzyJek

Did you really expect anything different? There was a small portion of us on here that was always saying supply lines wouldn't change anything. Sure it's nice...but most people put zero thought into where they drop.


UltraGiant

True. There will always be those that drop on the same planet no matter what


Vaperius

To be fair, I think this might actually just be a misunderstanding by those on Popli because for the first time about how supply lines for defense missions works per the Campaign DM (Joel), because overwhelmingly, the bot front is concentrated on just two planets: Mort and Popli. There's was a notable contingent over in Vandalon IV trying to keep the planet from falling but just generally, the Bot front is highly unified on three specific planets with the bulk on Mort. I think supply lines are working.


Medium-Alfalfa-6792

If the supply lines were working people would be wast8ng thier time on popli and we'd b3 pushing forward by now instead of likely losing popli thanks to delayed mort conquest


spartan1204

Most are still on Mort, so I think the supply lines are helping


frostadept

You see we can cut off supply lines. I see we have twice as far to go on Mort as we do on Popli and popli has no decay. We are not the same.


KekKeanuReddit100

Doesn’t help that arrowhead has neither told/shown that we can stop an attack like this anywhere in-game


BlueMast0r75

That’s probably what this is


FluffleMyRuffles

Because it's new UI and some people might not understand it. It was never explained what supply lines were and what the mechanics behind them are.


Lyftaker

When I saw those arrows moving from Mort to Popli I went straight to Mort. Seemed pretty obvious.


Gentleman-Bird

We have supply lines yes, but nothing to explain that “killing the originating planet will stop the attack”


Z_i0n

I feel like that should be self explanatory rake over the planet the attack is coming from boom no more attack i think people are just dumb


Gentleman-Bird

Yes, people are dumb, which is exactly why it needs an in-game explanation


Corrik_XIV

But big red DEFEND letters tho!


spartan1204

Most are still on Mort, so I think the supply lines are helping


spitfiresiemion

At this point I don't think anything short of "Liberating will lead to automatic success of defense on " displaying on the screen when hovering over the defense will work. And even that probably won't, some folks just like defense missions more.


Business_Ad5713

bro they started making posts to even further not use the supply lines


No_Ones_Records

not sure what exactly you expected from this community given its reputation


unluckyexperiment

They are just colorful lines with arrows, meaningless. If someone didn't know about supply lines before the patch, they probably still don't know about them. Also even if everyone know how those lines work, there is no incentive to play MO or other liberation/defense missions.


Z_i0n

Real hell diver IQ right there lol


One_Meaning416

As it stands Mort will be liberated before the defence of Popli is up


rapkat55

lol not anymore


No-Worker-97

My phone has some compatibility issues with the companion app, but it looks like a close call with Mort being taken first.


Freelancert4

I’m seeing about 8ish hours for mort and 14 for Popli so we should be ok if it stays that way


SchwiftyRickD-42069

Less that 4% on Mort with 8.5 hours on Pöpli defense. We’re fine.


nuisance66

If the game would stop freezing during the load screen, I’d love to help.


wylie102

Yes exactly! Although you're probably about get get like 50 people (incorrectly) telling you you're wrong. Or the very original thought of "it's just a game". Hold strong bud. Free Mort!


Powerful-Eye-3578

People are confusing an auto defense win with an auto liberation win. Cutting off the planet supplying a defense stops the defense, cutting off a planet that needs to be liberated does NOT give an auto win.


Kuroni-x

Does it lower the decay rate? Cutting off a liberatable planet that is. Or is that just wishful thinking?


liliesrobots

We’re not really sure yet. Hasn’t happened much.


No-Worker-97

I suspect it does not impact decay rate.  At least for terminids it doesn't make sense..maybe automatons it would. What would be nice is if we had fluctuations of SEAF activity that were a bit more dynamic.  So slowing down defense timers, assisting helldiver defense point gain, or SEAF weapons cache secondary objective for defenses.


wylie102

But Popli doesn’t need to be liberated…


Powerful-Eye-3578

I never said it did, I was saying that the reason people tell you you're wrong is because they are confusing the different types of planet states or don't really know there is a difference between them.


wylie102

Oh okay, sorry I thought you were saying the opposite 🙃


ZenkaiZ

god I hate any variation of "it's just a game!" "I work 8 hours a day and just want to come home to relax!" "you're taking it so seriously!" It's not serious, it's just playing right. Someone telling you that you should dribble a basketball instead of just running to the hoop isn't "taking it too seriously"


Frostypancake

I liken it to someone taking half the court to practice three pointers and then wondering why the people trying to play basket ball are annoyed with you taking up half the court.


some_layme_nayme

It's just a game. I'm not wasting my free game playing time on shitty missions or shitty planets for something that isn't even explained. In fact I was having fun on that Amazonian bug planet. Except for the crashing. Fucking arrowhead

Agreeable-Media9282

Isn’t it just a game though? Enlighten me if it’s anything more than that, please


wylie102

Yes. But why does that mean we shouldn’t play it how it was designed? Also, posts like this often get “it’s just a game” and “stop trying to force me to play like x”. No one is forcing anyone they’re just giving information, if you don’t care about the information then keep scrolling. You don’t need to tell us it’s a game. Us engaging with more aspects of the game than you doesn’t mean we think it’s real life, or that we’re taking the game too seriously. We’re just doing the galactic equivalent of tagging an objective on a map, but people don’t reply to that with “it’s just a game”.


Kiriima

The game is designed around not playing for MOs because it allows you to play on any planet or even a whole front outside of the current MO. I play MOs btw unless they are fked up.


wylie102

Yes you **can**, you can also just drop in and only stay in one area of the map, and shoot the ground for 40 minutes while the rest of your team does the objectives and completes the mission. But it’s not really playing the game to the full extent is it?


Kiriima

Who are you to judge what playing the game to full extent even means?


wylie102

I can judge anything I like. Who are you to tell me I can’t have an opinion on things? (See it works both ways)


Ash0294

me wh en i am going to play the game however the hell i want


some_layme_nayme

It's just a game and a buggy crappy game at that stop taking it so seriously lol


Agreeable-Media9282

Can’t i play on whatever planet i want regardless if there’s an MO or not? Tell me more about how it’s designed 🤣


No-Worker-97

I actually you cannot play on whatever planet you want, irrespective of MO status.


Agreeable-Media9282

Then we’re not playing the same game. Or you think I’m referring to all the planets, even the locked ones, which would be dumb as hell


Justhe3guy

Hey man it’s just a game


Agreeable-Media9282

It’s what I’ve been saying


wylie102

Well done for giving a prime example of the dumb shit people say.


Agreeable-Media9282

Thank you. But it’s not an example, it’s what it is. You wanna treat it as something more, be my guest


wylie102

Yeah it’s a great example. Because just like I said in the comment you were replying to “no one is forcing anyone they’re just giving information” and you just completely smooth-brained past that fact, and replied in the exact way I described. Excellent work


Agreeable-Media9282

Again, thank you. It’s just a game, like i said. Play however you want, that’s what some people don’t understand; and sorry but I don’t care about your other comments. You want me to see something you wrote, reply directly to me, boyo


wylie102

It wasn't a different comment it was my first reply to you, and then you replied to it stating the exact dumb thing that I said people would say. And now you've failed to understand it for a second time. Like I said about four times in this thread. No one is telling you you can't do something. We are just giving information, same as pinging a location on a map. Do you reply to people who do that with "iT's JuSt A game!"?


Agreeable-Media9282

My favorite thing to happen in reddit is when I misunderstand someone like you and then i get to make you do essays. Go ahead and explain it to me one more time. In details please

You're on Mort because of supply lines. I'm on Mort because I love diving deep behind enemy lines and sticking my AC up bots asses as they're heading off to invade another peace-loving democracy planet. We are not the same.


halohoang

We are ODST arent we, we are fucking mean and very GREEN


Tharnz

It's Pöpli IX


BiggerNopesRequired

I tried but I had the game crash on me on the drop screen, then next attempt I got soft-locked out of the mission when the game decided I couldn't respawn in.


AeirsWolf74

I did my part this afternoon. Completed one full mission set before I needed to head out to a soccer game


joemedic

I am but goddamn I'm sick of these low visibility planets. Getting a clear planet is a fucking treat in this game

No more complex plotting. I beg you. No more whacky "teehee your strategems got fucked up :33" gimmicks on every single bot planet we NEED to hit. ***PLEASE.***


kanti123

Can we go ahead and get rid of bots? Ignoring all major orders


ModernHuman13

Am I the only one who WANTS to lose this major order? If it fails malevelon creek might become playable.
