Community Battle Station

Community Battle Station Idea

When the battle station comes to be this would be a thing that sits on the galactic map moving to MO planets and sectors that works similarly to the super destroyer upgrade system but in this case, something that is upgraded by the whole community using spare Samples and Credits we are capped on to create global buffs like liberation bonus, random stratagems during operations or cosmetic unlocks for the community.

Further explained in this post, let me know what you all think?

I could support something like this. A community focused goal that requires resources would be a nice addition.

The Battlestations are what players will have access to for the soon to be arriving Clan System that has been called "Platoons."

It seems that players will be capable of creating their own clan and will attain their own Battlestation that can be moved to different planets - though it's not known at the current time what this will allow - and could potentially be able to move about on their own Battlestation.

Could turn out to be a little similar to the Warframe Dojo system that had been put into place, but even then it's going into the realm of sheer speculation.

Sounds really interesting were did you find this info i would like to find out more about this

Wish this game was delayed for a year or more so it had these things, instead of having nothing now.

We desperately need some sort of pooled upgrade system. The fact we have nothing to do with these resources most of the time is a tragedy.

This was found out from people that have been datamining Helldivers II and discovered code that seemed to allude to a clan system that had been called "Platoons."

They found code that had been relating to options such as "Promote Player" and "Boot Player" and came to soon find out about other code that had been surrounding the naming system with even code that will give off an error message for a name that a clan had gotten that another clan had gotten before them, disallowing the same name to have been used.

Though what's been the biggest indicator that the Orbital Battlestations are in direct relation to clan system is the same code that was discovered relating to all the above written features had been code that had a comment for it; "Move Battlestation" or something similar to that.

That's what's telling me about the Orbital Battlestations being a direct relation to the clan system and the reason we could be able to board our own Battlestations similar to how we board the Super Destroyer.

Just punch it into google;

"Helldivers II Clan System" or "Helldivers II Platoons."

Something to that effect.

That would be a nice touch,
though clan chat in game would also be do well with a resizable chat box.

[Vespertellino]

yes please

Not sure we need clan chat during matches. Probably better to focus on communicating with the people you're actually playing with and save other stuff for between matches

All we need to do is to frequent this place a bit more. Not too hard to do. Keep an eye here, finish the missions, liberate the planets, and if there's a new major order on the other side, finish the planet you're on first.

Thinking a bit more on the clan chat function.. after a reflection on what Isaac had mentioned, any large clan or all auto-accepting guild may have a very easily offended bell ringer, sniping out anyone who is left. They'd have to changed what happened to the offender, banned from the game for chat in clan? nah.

It'd be a problem.

[Sigismund]

This will be a net positive overall, be it the way you describe (which I think is a great idea) or if its similar to a clan system we see in other games.
Not to mention having a way to donate / dump / sink the excess resources that we get capped at, in a meaningful way is something that will no doubt help out. Since it makes the grind mean something.
