@@niklasdahlgren7641 Well according to the prologue, most Helldivers are over 18 years old, therefore, if they are recruited at the age of 12 it means that they have at least 6 years of training.

It is a great way to learn how cover affects blasts. Try laying down (going all the way prone), in the nearest trench or pit, de-elevated hillside or anywhere with solid cover. As long as you're not *right in* the blast, you can completely dodge most explosions with surprisingly shallow cover. (Still no guarantees. But your life is a valuable asset, and democracy demands you use it with efficiency.)
@@thegrimcritic5494 I think they mean stratagem inputs; activate, then up, down, left, for example, but instead the wearer has to give the activator the code of its a buddy doing it
@@thegrimcritic5494 Nah like, you have to input a small stratagem code directly in the backpack to activate it, so the random players will have to find the code, and you won't because you know it
I did this earlier in a defense mission not knowing. As soon as the timer hit 8 seconds I typed "RUN, RUN, RUN" in the side chat. He chased me down and we both died. Great addition to the game.
Was sitting in an FRV with it on and a team member went to get in and accidentally activated it while attempting to get in the FRV. We hit the pedal to the medal for democracy.
Team mate carried one whilst driving the car. We all jumped in and it instantly coincided with us then hearing the countdown timer which (being our first time) had us all wondering what it was. All we heard next from him was "AH SH!T RUUUUN!"
The fact that there is a prompt at all when, realistically, there would be no use in having your friend activate it for any other reason than trolling is peak helldivers
I also learned you can arm it in the jeep. I tried climbing into the gunner seat and somehow armed the hell bomb one of my friends was carrying. Needless to say we panicked and jumped out of the vehicle and ran away afterwards 😂
0:52 dude imagine if video game technology is so advanced that we can have the Dune vfx where the explosion gets contained by the shield *then* bursts outwards.
Fun fact: The warning label is also seen on the regular hellbomb. Next to it is another that reads "Always operate in line with the issues freedom manual. Content may explode if operated incorrectly."
0:22 "Guess what you are getting for your 12th birthday now that you are old enough Little Timmy?" "OOH! I hope it's a man-portable nuclear device!" Opens the present it is this thing
“Now Timmy, you know you can’t run around with the Hellbomb until your 13th birthday. Now go load those mortar shells into the turret outside, the Squids are back again and your father’s been mumbling in some made up language, gonna have to put em down with the Family Senator.” “Awh Mooooom…”
activate hellbomb, then hold a reinforcement stratagem. when you die, you can reinforce yourself to the same spot rather than run across the map for your samples and support weapons
First mission after I unlocked this, I dove off the LZ as my squad extracted, ran into a squad of devastators while the countdown ran out, and somehow racked up a killstreak of 77.
You really can't be having it while with teammates and intractables. Managed to active my driver's backpack on accident trying to get to the gunner seat. They panicked, droved off into the sunset and became another sun themselves.
We need diversification in gear statistics (helmets/capes need random specs so its nicer to collect them). We also need a motorcycle that can have 1 backseat passenger. And I would vote for a dedicated strategem slot for a transportation vehicle.
"Hey V2 i need a stim"
"Don't worry i gotchu"
Lol
V2 is NOT getting reconstructed
this literally just happened to me except with a supply pack.
Can we see him?
@jamesThebulbmin RECONSTRUCT WHAT? THERE'S NOTHING LEFT!
Arrowhead: allows you to drop the backpack so you don't blow yourself up with the bomb

Hardly. Look at the demonstration video for it. Activates it, then charges straight into the vote less horde.

Imagine testing it out while running and your teamate just taps it and you die
if your team-mate taps it, it's your responsibility to chase him down to the ends of the earth.

just drop it

Not for kids under the age of 12 though.
Hopefully the devs add the option to toss it, just for the deadliest game of Hot Potato.
0:22 so, is okay to give a nuclear backpack to a 13 years old child 😂
For democracy it is
at least they dont give it to the "Children over the age of 7"

It would be fun af if the hellbomb requires 3 input code but it’s only visible to the wearer.
Oh, like someone has to press ‘activate’ three times in a row to activate it instead of one? That’s actually super clever.

They should have it hold to activate so it can be a little safer when giving ammo to teammates.

It would pair well with the new armor bonus if you could prime it with an explosion

It is surprisingly effective

casualties gonna skyrocket
The hug before the explosion just made me feel sad :(
Found out the hard way. Tried getting in the rover and accidentally activated the drivers pack. We didn't even make it 100 yards
I love the use of halo ost on clips from this game.
This is the spiritual successor to halo ODST games we never got.
...the hug before detonation had me
I screamed "Witness me" while charging towards three Harvesters yesterday
i love how the hug is used as the "well what is it?" emote
Me: “10 seconds is plenty of time to run away from it”
My fellow helldiver: “FOR DEMOCRACY!”
Thank you 4 presenting an easy way to dealing with factory striders. Will definitely try it in the field.
"My life for Super Earth!" now in convenient backpack form
I could feel it in my bones that the level 3 my group met while farming credits could never resist the Funny Button on my big backpack.

Funny how the cut off point for a *literal bomb backpack* is 12 years old.
Imagine what they give to kids 13 and up.
even the demo clip on the war bonds shows someone using it like that one ork at helms deep. The devs knew what we would do 100%
"Do not give to children under the age of 12."
Ok, I'm gonna give it to a 13 year old kid then.
