Illuminate are more of a knowlage and peception check than an actual fight and i love it. They seem balanced and like the QA team actually did their job for once.
I agree, I have soo much fun playing illuminate the zombie spam is just fun to fight and every engagement is just insanely cool! Very well made outside of some clipping for the new buildings with the flybois.
The difference in how Eravin and Clay handle first contact is hilarious. Eravin was cautions, and observing the enemies. Clay sees a squid for the first time "Blast 'em boys!"
Clay, you gotta hop on the Patriot Exosuit for the Illuminates. Stomping through hordes of voteless, taking down multiple harvesters, the patriot with the new buffs to its HP is unstoppable. Aswell as the HMG emplacement
Because we've only seen 5 of their units so far compared to the bots/bugs who both got like 18+ units each. From difficulty 4 through 10 there's the same unit types atm. We're only dealing with a vanguard force.
You are right but it is also way more fun to play plus things will get far more difficult with their full roster this is just the scout invasion. From my pov the bugs don't spawn enough enemies to keep me engaged to the point that we did a melee only run with the constitution on stream the day before illuminate came out and we had about 1k~ kills but often there wasn't more enemies to keep fighting. On the bots you can't kill farm them because the game crashes when you kill to many. So for me this is very enjoyable to be battling the entire game and it is vastly more fun and even though it is easier the other factions are only difficult because of gimicks or ragdoll spam ever since the bugged patrol update was removed at least :(
Love you Clay Also why wtf do I feel like these enemies are cracked? White armored jetpack guys have way too much health. Am I crazy? I just can't deal with them. Pls share your secrets
@@approximately27goats I always try to respond to everything for the first hour after my videos posted so I usually just refresh the comments every few minutes. I'll be posting a solo game later today and locking in all of my secrets as the week goes on. Just takes me some extra time to make those videos because it's alot of editing and I am rather slow at it.
Maybe we need to stop judging this game by difficulty level and instead by fun level. What I mean is instead of setting a difficulty slider, it should just be a fun slider. Yes. It's just easy.
I'm mean lets call a spade a beta-testing spade... The performance with the Illuminate is absolutely rock bottom, the balance of their units is a bit all over the place, the buggy vehicle handling is absolutly horrific, the new armor passive is bugged so it affects ALL weapons.... -- I mean it's a hoot but arrowhead continue to parade their ineptitude.
So premade parties are fine it is random que that is cooked and it has been for quite some time. As for the car it takes some getting use to but once you get the hang of it the driving is fine (with 4 or 0 wheels) but we really need a way to flip it back over. They are also in the position that if they nerf the armor affecting sup weps itll be a bad look so weel have to see their next move.

Can't wait for the elites. Shits gonna get wicked 🤟🏾
A reminder to all that we only have 4 enemy types plus the scout drone, we’re getting at least 2-3 more when they fully invade
Hearing you guys live in my ear while I was dropping in myself was a peak gaming experience
When you plan an invasion you dont send a armada first. You send a scout party... although this is smaller than a scout. This would be a harvesting...
They were just experimenting here clearly, with the zombies. Probably to see how they’d make an effective fodder frontline to back up the elites.
About the machine gun sentry killing friends in the end: "Greatest threats are the friends we made along the way 😂"
07:18 thats funny, this the the EXACT thing arrowhead warned about in the patch notes with flamethrowers lmao
Thanks for showing it in action!

Love that thumbnail!
Thank you, as the inspiration to go through with it I figured why not because it is super funny. I also added a lil friend for the pilepod
Thumbnail 100% locked in
The machine guns both the medium and heavy feel so fun to use on them, i can now feel like a true machine gunner as i jog around clearing streets
What up king 👑?
May I suggest a drop shadow placed behind the webcam feed. Take your streaming setup to Level...2 🙂
MG/hmg, MG turret, and Gatling turret just absolutely cook on illuminate. Soooo much fun.
Arc Blitzer, Arc Thrower, Laser Dog, and pick-a-turret shreds
@@emdo.unlimited555 no arc thrower no lazer backpack. Actually works better if it's the Lazer cannon not the quazar and the regular guard dog backpack
I love this update, but i still don't completely trust AH. It's hit or miss to such an extreme. They simply shouldn't have released to DSS at all.
Feels like you’re playing xcom 2 fr
For some reason you seem to have less enemies than I had in difficulty 7
The stairs look like the Joker stairs…lmao
Love the Illuminate but why are they easier than bugs and bots? Or am I tripping?

Because this is only the vanguard. If you play the first helldivers, you know things will get... complicated 🤣
Can't say I agree, they feel insane for me and my group
Maybe we just fking suck, idk man
They probably won’t be easy forever. There are only 5 enemies right now
WE ARE SO BACK
YESSIR
Love you Clay

Thank you, I figured the full meme thumbnail would just be fun after everyone on stream wanted it over the other one lmao
Edited comment in the time it took you to respond to me, wow
