I'm curious, do you have any tips for how to co-ordinate as a team? For whatever reason I find it hard to do when hopping on with my buddies. We usually end up getting separated, though that happens more with the people who have played a lot then my buddies who just picked up the game.
Maybe I should consolidate this into a longer video, but I'll try and list the key points: 1) Bring balanced loadouts. If you can coordinate, make sure you have good coverage of both AT for the heavily armoured enemies, and trash clear for medium and below. 2) Stick together, at least in pairs. A battle buddy will watch your back and keep you alive, and you'll do the same for them. If you're splitting up, make sure each pair has both AT / Trash Clear roles covered. 3) Probably the most important one - communicate. Learn to do callouts automatically. Ping enemies, give compass directions (right / left means nothing if you're spinning around) and rough distance ("close/far"). Communicate whenever you're throwing a strike or explosives down, don't assume your teammate has seen the red laser in the thick of a fight. Avoids FF and also wasted strats. Clearly communicate whether you're engaging a group or moving past them ("they're aggroed / unaggroed"). 4) Try and divide up targets between your teammates, whether that's by zone ("you got left, I got right") or by type ("I'm on heavies, you keep the trash off us"). Think about who is better kitted out for what targets, then prioritise and call out what targets you're focussing on so everyone knows what they're doing. It's all too easy for everyone to focus on the big boys and then everyone gets swarmed by the little guys. 5) Have someone in your pair / squad taking point. It doesn't have to be one person, it can be fluid, but the important thing is that someone is assessing when you need to leave the area, and communicating clearly what compass direction you're heading in. If no one makes the call, you'll be stuck fighting endless spawns that you don't even need to engage. 6) Cover each other. If you've had to retreat and you've outpaced everything else, turn around and cover the teammates who have enemies right on them. They're doing you a favour by taking all the aggro, so return the favour. If you're the one who needs help, call for it, let your teammates be your hero. 7) Coordinate elite kills. E.g. for bile titans, a lot of people use 500kg but they only work well if you reliably know where it's running. If you have the 500 and a teammate has the aggro, tell them to run straight at you so they can guide the titan towards your 500. Similarly, for tanks / cannon turrets, have one person take the aggro while the others get to the vents behind. If you need a stun nade to save your ass, call for it. 8) Coordinate your intial strikes on an enemy group, especially important in stealth play. When the enemy is unaggroed is when you can all get to good positions and take them all out in one go, no alerts. Give everyone a chance to get in position, call out your targets, then do a countdown. That's just off the top of my head :P. Good question! May give it more thought and put it all in a video.
@@newspiked7385 Holy moly this is excellent advice. Concise points with clear explanations. The point about sticking together might explain why I do better when playing with my low-level buddies. People who are higher level tend to run off on their own more. If you are up for it, this would 100% be worth it's own video. You are very good at explaining things and your voice is pleasant to listen to. Keep up the good content my friend. :)
@@newspiked7385 if i may add one more thing me and my squad do (and you too apparently): one guy carries all the samples. if others find samples, drop them for him to pick up, for instance when reloading/resupplying. that way it's much easier to collect the whole container if the designated carrier dies.
@@junes_junesko And in addition to your suggestion, if you're running past the extraction point anyway, go ahead and drop your samples there, because you can't take them out any other way - better to have some samples at extract instead of dying in the middle of a nest and have them unrecoverable. Dropping items can be done while running, so it literally takes no time to do so.
Ya know, if people pulled this off more, I don’t think there’d be nearly as much demand for changing armor color. 10 minutes in and there is only G R E E N.
Awesome. I've got a really good squad for haz6x2 DRG but I'm yet to find people with whom I can comfortably run max difficulty in Helldivers 2. Solo is a good time but strategically full clearing a map looks even more entertaining with a capable team. Thanks for consistently releasing informative, entertaining content. Solid gameplay and I like that the loadouts are all unique.
Yeah. Part of the reason solo's so popular is that it lets you have more control over how the mission's going, if you know what you're doing. Finding a team of like-minded players can be trickier, once you find them though it's a blast. Thanks for the kind words! Yeah I like mixing up builds, even if I have favourites it's fun to explore other stuff.
I enjoyed listening to you guys. How calmly you talk to each other is beautiful. And great job of course! would like to try out the grenade launcher now.
managed to pull off a 2 player level 8 icbm mission with no personal deaths the other day and honestly it’s all thanks to binge watching these awesome videos you upload you rock
Nice to see the Grenade Launcher + Supply Pack again. I've been playing around with different builds, especially to prepare for stalker nests solo, but Grenade Launcher will always be my #1 support weapon! ^^
When I try to coordinate my squads I get called a try hard and people leave the squad. I don't understand why it's so hard for players to cooperate within a squad rather than just running off and soloing. Why join a squad if you don't play well with others
Definitely, half the battle is finding a group of like-minded players to team up with. I've never really played quickplay but the odd times we've had randoms join our game, some of them have surprised us though and played well together. Dat IRL RNG!
@@newspiked7385honestly quickplay isn't half bad if you, counterintuitively bring solo oriented gear. If your teammates are good, you'll have a good time regardless of whatever your solo loadout is. If they aren't, well atleast you're prepared.
Because the game kinda pushes it It not scaling things for solo and forcing things that require 2 people (ie: friendship bunkers), probably pushes some people who'd rather play solo into squading up
Will keep them coming :) Thanks for the sub! In case you missed it, all my commentated videos have links in the description to versions without commentary - I just keep them unlisted so my videos / playlists aren't too cluttered.
Hey man, you put a lot of work into these vids and it shows. You’re skilled at this game and if you keep this up your channel WILL grow. We see you, Spiked. Subbed.
120’s definitely been a sleeper hit post-new-ship-upgrade, curious to see if the tighter spread on the already focused walking barrage has made that into something worth becoming a mainstay in my bot loadouts. Dunno if you’ve ever run Servo Assisted armor consistently but lobbing a stratagem into a base from downtown is both hilarious and surprisingly effective when it comes to not immediately covering yourself in bots, although their random fits of omniscience will still get you here and there. Always fun seeing these, looking forward to the inevitable “Hellpod Damage Only” run!
Yeah, love the long throws, they're pretty fun for strikes, I just gotta adjust everytime I switch to / from the servo armours. "Hellpod damage only", lol, there's off-meta, then there's full meme build =P
Truthfully the Servo Assist is mostly a crutch from me not being able to comfortably snipe things with orbitals but the fact that you can throw a 500kg beacon at a fabricator so hard it’ll rebound and travel half the distance back to you is worth it in its own right
@@newspiked7385 Say what you will, but hellpod damage is no joke. You can do a shocking amount of destruction with Expendable Anti-Tank just from the entry hellpods.
Honestly, I play games of Suicide difficulty on the bugs that seem more difficult. I usually kill any charger or bile titan in a matter of a few seconds. But we end up with 8 chargers at the same time, and 4 or 5 bile titans. What struck me in this game is how few chargers you had; How few bile titans; and how long it took you to deal with them (usually quite long relatively speaking). Perhaps the guy with the Spear was utilizing it more than I could see? I'm wondering if something isn't different between our games, like the number of bug breaches and so fourth. I think you guys have far fewer bug breaches than in my games. Also, when your teammates had aggro, there is no need to 120mm the bug nest, unless you're just trying to kill the holes. You won't get much resistance, nor any bug breaches, as you probably already know.
It's just RNG. Some times you get big rolls, other times small ones. In the vid I uploaded today, we had a double titan spawn followed by a quadruple titan spawn. But we killed both groups very quickly :P. You can collect a lot of bile titans if the team as a whole doesn't have enough tools to take care of them, even on lower difficulties. It's been forever since I've played on suicide so I wouldn't know, but I imagine you can collect a few from patrols and one or two bug breaches. Also worth noting, I wonder how many players know that the patrol rate goes up 4x once they complete the primary objectives. If they're finishing the primaries first before tackling the rest of the map, their whole mission is going to be way harder, yeah.
@@newspiked7385 I always make people wait until the end to finish the main objective, after everything else is done for that very reason (4x spawn rates).
I literally have the exact same fashion as you, ravager armor, eradicator helmet and that one cape you get from the 3rd page of cutting edge warbond kinda crazy
Wow, you survived that bug pile by the skin of your teeth. All one had to do was breathe on you and it would have been over. But, liberty prevailed and you won the day! Sweet liberty!
One of the problems with running the Breaker Incendiary. Because of the angle, there was no way I could turn to hose down the Hunters off of him without almost certainly killing Spiked.
@@originalSPECTER agree... definitely a tough situation. Fire in to those bugs and chances are good Spiked gets hit. Don't fire and Spiked continues to get hammered by them. Thankfully he managed to get that stim injected just in time and slipped out of the pile. Overall the full clear with zero deaths was a heck of an achievement. Democracy prevailed once more!
Such great team work. Wish I had a set group of team mates to play with. Slowly soloing my way through the difficulties is still a fun challenge though.
I've been meaning to set up a Discord so people who like this kinda playstyle can more easily find games together. Solo's great but ultimately coop is the core experience the devs were aiming for. Just need to get round to setting it up!
i dream of a squad like this . most lf the time i get the opposite everyone goes their own way nobody talks. this is how the game should be played. Best squad play ive ever seen on HD2. CHEERS MATES!
i like that the grenade launcher's description specifcally says its not good against armored targets but homie still using it to take down the chargers specifically. You wouldve killed it faster by shooting its butt with your primary weapon lol
Charger butts take bonus damage from explosives, so it can go down quickly from the nade launcher in like one mag, but for whatever reason it's not consistent.
I know what the title of this video is. I know Spiked don't lie. But oh man, at 20:50 was I doubtin'... Ho-lee crap dude, that was close! Grenade Launcher + Supply Pack was my first 'main' and I love it, you got a very happy fan outta me for running this. Thoughts on Semi-mode for Redeemer? ...not with a Supply Backpack obviously but in general? One of my favorite combos is to use a Stun Grenade with Orbital Precision Strike, the low cooldown makes it so worth it, it's like a DIY Orbital Railcannon lol. Since I like to go with Grenade Launcher or Autocannon, it's one of my favorite way of getting rid of chargers quickly. Are you able to spot Super Samples on the minimap? I keep looking for the silver pixel but I'd have an easier time finding Waldo at this point. Stratagem Hero highscore 40 minute video when? Also, think full stealth is still doable vs bots with factory striders and the new devastator numbers? Oh, and... awesome video! Hope you and the boyz are proud of this one!
Lol, definitely. Wasn't sure if I was wearing the armour with a chance to survive killing blows! I know Redeemer's good in semi-auto, it just feels wrong when I'm so used to its crazy firerate. I've recently been really liking the Orbital Precision too - can take down Detector Towers, and has a nice low cooldown that isn't tied to the Eagle rearms. Nice idea to pair it with the GL and stuns, more practical than the barrage I took for this run I think! Nah, for Super Samples I just keep an eye out for the rock, finding it on the map is beyond me. I'm not even sure what full stealth would look like tbh, even on my stealthiest videos I'll get bot drops at some point. I think the only real guaranteed alerts are those gunships, otherwise the rest are still stealthable tho. Thanks for the comment and questions :) and yeah we were pretty chuffed after this one!
People been complaining that surviving on helldive without dying is impossible every time i mentioned some kind of perma death dive mission mode. I just yesterday survived a 40 min mission on helldive without myself dying once unfortunately my teamates kept getting killed. Being a profficent fighter, survivor, and teammate play is critical for tending towards staying alive.
Would be cool to see the battle from the POV of the others as well. Really curious how the dude with the spear managed to clear so well and not be dead weight.
Spear does well for Titans and Chargers, so as long as his primaries and strats can take care of everything else, it's fine. I have most of the other stuff covered with my nade launcher anyway so we paid up well. Would be cool to see his POV too but sadly don't think he records :/
I've wanted to do a full laser build for a while, it's just tough in solo (at least for bugs) because you're pretty weak vs heavies, laser has only 3 uses, and I was avoiding sickle and quasar as I already did a build with that pair before, so it was scythe and lascannon. Might try it again vs bots, people keep singing the lascannon's praises for automatons but I'm struggling a little.
Do you have the t4 upgrade that reduces orbital spread for the 120? I still am hesitant to use the barrages without that upgrade but idk if it does much.
"Na-palm, sticks to kids. Napalm sticks to little kids." Some cadence calls are just messed up. I remember a battalion run, we sang napalm sticks to kids while running past a school on post. Nobody bat an eyelash. But the next cadence we call is some C-130 variant, and the guy leading the cadence drops an F-bomb, and that gets some random brasshole stopped on the opposite side of the road to flip around and honk and go around the formation and roll his window down to yell at us. Really? Napalm sticks to kids is fine but saying fuck is bad? Too bad for Captain Asshole post policy was to yield to soldiers in formation during PT hours. Dude got a reckless driving ticket and a letter of reprimand for violating post safety standards.
Not sure either, tbh even as host I have mixed results with them. If one thermite nade could guarantee stripping a Charger leg, I'd use it in so many more builds.
Yeah...honestly it can help or hinder. You can cover more ground that way, but if both groups end up moving slower because they're outgunned, it can end up being less useful. Just have to read the room.
Well, playing almost every day since it came out + focusing on mission completion and not doing much solo/restarting. I seldom abandon a mission. I kept that habit even when the level cap was 50 so when the XP carried over it shot me up to above 120.
oh my good boy, bro i really like your videos i think the content is really cool, but could you give it a little push? put the videos in 1440p would help a little to appreciate your videos with more quality bro. and my monitor is horrible, so i really wanted to ask you. :)
@@newspiked7385 noooo man, don't worry, if that's what you're thinking, there's two of us skskskskskskskskskskskskskskskskskssk, but anyway that doesn't change the fact that your video is good man, keep it up and you'll achieve success :)
I tried it in the edit and it throws off the pacing of the intro. You can see all my stratagems anyway in my thumbnail, or when I bring up the menu to start deploying stratagems.
Lets see a high kill full clear mission. What I mean by high kill.... after finishing all main and side OBJ's go to the extract zone and just let the bugs keep coming till the end. Not worried about deaths but if you can do it with 0 that would be impressive also. GEEEE GEEEE
I don’t care what nobody say it’s songs like this why I’m happy Cole pulled out of the beef bs because songs like this that want get heard or made and I’m just stuck with hearing diss songs that in time will fade and get boring
Just observation not rant ! Devs should do special YOTUBERS game mode, like 10x longer to unlock everything, like 2-3x more bugs, or harder to kill :D I barely played couple hours, and they already completed everything and stomping on collectables :D Railgun ? I didn't even opened it to use it, and devs nerved it already cause tubers one shot killing everything :D extended to lvl 150 ?, yeah they already lvl 149 and a half :) or completed everything and burned out, waiting for other new stuff or new game to come out :) planets are closed that I didn't even got chance to visit :/ That's not rant, just egnolaging that in 2 different "time zones" we live in. And devs shouldn't tailor games according to youtubers for sure. Or issue them "special tube slow mode" :) for them to be intresting, and for viewers to be on the same page :) EDIT: I didn't meant to be mean, I like your uncut vids with different loadouts !
I find it funny how everyone who post these videos toting their own horns in Helldivers 2, it’s always against bugs. Show 0 deaths against bots on Level 9: in fact I bet money it can’t be done.
I mean...you can check out all my all clear 0 deaths solo runs for bots if you like. I'm also not tooting my own horn or anything here, I put these up because people enjoy watching them, and I'm always quick to point out where luck is involved or when a mission is surprisingly straightforward. If you don't enjoy them or find them trivial you don't have to watch them.
Have you seen new leak? The rocket shotgun 8 rockets 1/4 the damage of the laws rocket (whatever you kids call it)........ Looks like the Fucking snow ball rises up a tier ......but again...rocket shotgun sounds ...if that shit really drops that all me. I get 1/4 of the profit.
evrytime i try to play with people they kill me or themselves with nades and yell in foraign langueges... in the 1000 games i have found 2 people who where helpfull/nice... solo runs it is for me..
protip when you're staring down brood commanders with or without their heads: boop them! your melee works against brood commanders and has no cooldown for how often you can stagger them with it. even when berzerk and headlesss.

I learned about discord voice chat overlay while watching your video. Awesome stuff! I need to enable that!
Gonna have to comeback for that teamwork explained video 🔥🔥
👏👏 Congratulations! Well done. No death without reinforcement. You did it with your team. You won! Now this is The Untouchables alright!
i dream of a squad like this . most lf the time i get the opposite everyone goes their own way nobody talks. this is how the game should be played. Best squad play ive ever seen on HD2. CHEERS MATES!
Don't let your dreams be memes, join the dream team on Discord, today!
Now this is a squad, damn 👏
4:54 the most resilient bug hole in the game
Lol. That body kept blocking the nades!
Super Teamwork
Good gameplay, clean comms, impressive loadout usage all around. Outstanding Patriotism indeed
That Hunter at 21:25 yelled, :GET DOWN MISTER PREZIDENT"!!
Makes up for the times they leap in front of one of our rockets =P
You won't be able to convince me that Specter isn't Seth Rogen
Goddamnit
lol love the StarCraft reference “in the pipe 2x2”
Somewhere, an Aliens fan just had a heart attack.
@@originalSPECTERi'm glad you said it
That's why I play with the same ppl! We all have mics and we know how to communicate
I love this game 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Me and my team usually cordinate with the buddy system. Im usually on object duty while the other is simply my guard
Damn!! The lvl of communication is insane!!! If it was my team we would be all over the map 😅
Chemistry is incredible bro. I see your loadout but what primary are you running? And are you running Stun grenades?
Yup got stuns, running breaker and redeemer, full build is in the description!
@@newspiked7385 thanks brother!
This is so entertaining
bug hunting with friends is such a chill time
The one thing i hope everyone wtching this notices is that "mics are not muted"
i like that the grenade launcher's description specifcally says its not good against armored targets but homie still using it to take down the chargers specifically. You wouldve killed it faster by shooting its butt with your primary weapon lol
Charger butts take bonus damage from explosives, so it can go down quickly from the nade launcher in like one mag, but for whatever reason it's not consistent.
Wow, 0 deaths
This level of professionalism and teamwork has restored my faith in democracy.
...You lost your faith in democracy?
Yes Mr. Democracy Officer, this one right here.
Way more vids like this bro fuckin smooth ❤
I know what the title of this video is. I know Spiked don't lie. But oh man, at 20:50 was I doubtin'... Ho-lee crap dude, that was close!
Grenade Launcher + Supply Pack was my first 'main' and I love it, you got a very happy fan outta me for running this.
Thoughts on Semi-mode for Redeemer? ...not with a Supply Backpack obviously but in general?
One of my favorite combos is to use a Stun Grenade with Orbital Precision Strike, the low cooldown makes it so worth it, it's like a DIY Orbital Railcannon lol. Since I like to go with Grenade Launcher or Autocannon, it's one of my favorite way of getting rid of chargers quickly.
Are you able to spot Super Samples on the minimap? I keep looking for the silver pixel but I'd have an easier time finding Waldo at this point.
Stratagem Hero highscore 40 minute video when?
Also, think full stealth is still doable vs bots with factory striders and the new devastator numbers?
Oh, and... awesome video! Hope you and the boyz are proud of this one!
Lol, definitely. Wasn't sure if I was wearing the armour with a chance to survive killing blows!
I know Redeemer's good in semi-auto, it just feels wrong when I'm so used to its crazy firerate.
I've recently been really liking the Orbital Precision too - can take down Detector Towers, and has a nice low cooldown that isn't tied to the Eagle rearms. Nice idea to pair it with the GL and stuns, more practical than the barrage I took for this run I think!
Nah, for Super Samples I just keep an eye out for the rock, finding it on the map is beyond me.
I'm not even sure what full stealth would look like tbh, even on my stealthiest videos I'll get bot drops at some point. I think the only real guaranteed alerts are those gunships, otherwise the rest are still stealthable tho.
Thanks for the comment and questions :) and yeah we were pretty chuffed after this one!
Man, that's good television! 👍
People been complaining that surviving on helldive without dying is impossible every time i mentioned some kind of perma death dive mission mode. I just yesterday survived a 40 min mission on helldive without myself dying once unfortunately my teamates kept getting killed. Being a profficent fighter, survivor, and teammate play is critical for tending towards staying alive.
Good teamwork all around~!
Would be cool to see the battle from the POV of the others as well. Really curious how the dude with the spear managed to clear so well and not be dead weight.
Spear does well for Titans and Chargers, so as long as his primaries and strats can take care of everything else, it's fine. I have most of the other stuff covered with my nade launcher anyway so we paid up well. Would be cool to see his POV too but sadly don't think he records :/
Well played lads!
Also how about full laser run? Laser rifle and pistol, drone backpack and quasar canon, maybe orbital laser
I've wanted to do a full laser build for a while, it's just tough in solo (at least for bugs) because you're pretty weak vs heavies, laser has only 3 uses, and I was avoiding sickle and quasar as I already did a build with that pair before, so it was scythe and lascannon. Might try it again vs bots, people keep singing the lascannon's praises for automatons but I'm struggling a little.
The game bacome to me hiper-super slow today. Very long loading times. Until yesterday everything was ok.
Should be called Noble team shesh good work patriots
Melts em down like plastic lids!!
I would wish that some of these planets would have the feel of... "early abandoned settlement"
Would love some larger town or even urban environments
Do you have the t4 upgrade that reduces orbital spread for the 120? I still am hesitant to use the barrages without that upgrade but idk if it does much.
Yeah, got it before this run. I've always preferred a tighter radius so it works well for me!
Wondering what the spear users loadout was. Its by far my favorite weapon
I like how the armor stays dirty
your mum is a defence planet. Holy shit xD
"Na-palm, sticks to kids.
Napalm sticks to little kids."
Some cadence calls are just messed up.
I remember a battalion run, we sang napalm sticks to kids while running past a school on post. Nobody bat an eyelash.
But the next cadence we call is some C-130 variant, and the guy leading the cadence drops an F-bomb, and that gets some random brasshole stopped on the opposite side of the road to flip around and honk and go around the formation and roll his window down to yell at us. Really? Napalm sticks to kids is fine but saying fuck is bad?
Too bad for Captain Asshole post policy was to yield to soldiers in formation during PT hours. Dude got a reckless driving ticket and a letter of reprimand for violating post safety standards.
I did this with a team of randoms on Lesanth on Helldive difficulty. It was the game I got the achievement on
I see your teammate using the thermite grenade - is the damage no longer bugged or does he just like the lightshow?
Honestly, I’m not sure.
Not sure either, tbh even as host I have mixed results with them. If one thermite nade could guarantee stripping a Charger leg, I'd use it in so many more builds.
Is there a reason that my dote disappeared when I aim with my grenade?
That friend that said “ i hate that dog” 9:51 im guessing its a white Maltese 😂
Lol...I'll have to check with him next time!
@@newspiked7385I believe he said it was a white shitzu. Or however you spell it.
The names popping up on the left when people talk. Is that what "push to talk" looks like or is that something else?
That's just the Discord overlay showing who's talking, I think most of us are using voice activation but works the same if you are on push to talk.
@@newspiked7385 Ahhh. Thanks. I was wondering how the PTT works. Never was able to do it.
Do you use max graphics settings?
Nah, mostly max but some stuff like volumetrics are set lower
We’ve finished 2 man hell dives with 0 deaths. Terminid only, the bots are a different story.
I’m honestly guilty of running off and doing solos with the mindset being “ill clear these areas while they push forward”. Players get mad tho
Yeah...honestly it can help or hinder. You can cover more ground that way, but if both groups end up moving slower because they're outgunned, it can end up being less useful. Just have to read the room.
Nice! How the f is specter ranking so fast!! lol!
All Helldivers are equally important. But some Helldivers are more equally important than others.
Well, playing almost every day since it came out + focusing on mission completion and not doing much solo/restarting. I seldom abandon a mission. I kept that habit even when the level cap was 50 so when the XP carried over it shot me up to above 120.
What firework gun is your friend using?
Incendiary Breaker!
oh my good boy, bro i really like your videos i think the content is really cool, but could you give it a little push? put the videos in 1440p would help a little to appreciate your videos with more quality bro. and my monitor is horrible, so i really wanted to ask you. :)
My native resolution isn't even 1440p, I'm a pleb :(
@@newspiked7385 noooo man, don't worry, if that's what you're thinking, there's two of us skskskskskskskskskskskskskskskskskssk, but anyway that doesn't change the fact that your video is good man, keep it up and you'll achieve success :)
Is 120 more accurate than 380?
Yeah tighter spread
Why is 6/6 super rare the most important when u are always capped at 100
Just feels good to find the rock. Picking up the samples themselves is almost an afterthought :P
Please show stratagems beginning of the round
I tried it in the edit and it throws off the pacing of the intro. You can see all my stratagems anyway in my thumbnail, or when I bring up the menu to start deploying stratagems.
How Do you reload from the backpack?
On pc, just press 5
Seriously is it too much to ask to be in a squad like this
Lets see a high kill full clear mission. What I mean by high kill.... after finishing all main and side OBJ's go to the extract zone and just let the bugs keep coming till the end. Not worried about deaths but if you can do it with 0 that would be impressive also. GEEEE GEEEE
Nice idea! Might be a long wait unless the mission timer is low anyway
I don’t care what nobody say it’s songs like this why I’m happy Cole pulled out of the beef bs because songs like this that want get heard or made and I’m just stuck with hearing diss songs that in time will fade and get boring
There is way to drop more than one resupply at a time.......... i havent seen anyone else try it
Stalkers never want 💀
Easy to call yourself untouchable when ur fighting bugs
need more quaso cannons and shield packs..........
Try autamoton
Just observation not rant !
Devs should do special YOTUBERS game mode, like 10x longer to unlock everything, like 2-3x more bugs, or harder to kill :D
I barely played couple hours, and they already completed everything and stomping on collectables :D
Railgun ? I didn't even opened it to use it, and devs nerved it already cause tubers one shot killing everything :D
extended to lvl 150 ?, yeah they already lvl 149 and a half :) or completed everything and burned out, waiting for other new stuff or new game to come out :)
planets are closed that I didn't even got chance to visit :/
That's not rant, just egnolaging that in 2 different "time zones" we live in.
And devs shouldn't tailor games according to youtubers for sure. Or issue them "special tube slow mode" :) for them to be intresting, and for viewers to be on the same page :)
EDIT: I didn't meant to be mean, I like your uncut vids with different loadouts !
I find it funny how everyone who post these videos toting their own horns in Helldivers 2, it’s always against bugs. Show 0 deaths against bots on Level 9: in fact I bet money it can’t be done.
I mean...you can check out all my all clear 0 deaths solo runs for bots if you like.
I'm also not tooting my own horn or anything here, I put these up because people enjoy watching them, and I'm always quick to point out where luck is involved or when a mission is surprisingly straightforward. If you don't enjoy them or find them trivial you don't have to watch them.
Have you seen new leak? The rocket shotgun 8 rockets 1/4 the damage of the laws rocket (whatever you kids call it)........ Looks like the Fucking snow ball rises up a tier ......but again...rocket shotgun sounds ...if that shit really drops that all me. I get 1/4 of the profit.
Oh wow, nah haven't seen it. Been trying to avoid leaks but that sounds great!
evrytime i try to play with people they kill me or themselves with nades and yell in foraign langueges... in the 1000 games i have found 2 people who where helpfull/nice... solo runs it is for me..
:( hope you find some good players soon
my squad is better.
I just liberated all over my super earth certified helldiver suit watching this master class🔥🔥🫡
The suit really seals in the flavour
Brilliant teamwork. Outstanding Coms. An army of 4.
protip when you're staring down brood commanders with or without their heads:
boop them! your melee works against brood commanders and has no cooldown for how often you can stagger them with it. even when berzerk and headlesss.
Ah, makes sense. Will try it next time!
Next video: each of you go your separate ways and complete objectives
Could be cool, not the biggest fan of "solo cooping" tho :P
