Enlist in the Helldivers and join the fight for freedom across a hostile galaxy in a fast, frantic, and ferocious third-person shooter.
URGENT BROADCAST - SUPER EARTH ARMED FORCES
Freedom. Peace. Democracy.
Your Super Earth-born rights. The key pillars of our civilization.
Of our very existence.
But the war rages on. And everything is once again under threat.
Join the greatest military force the galaxy has ever seen and make this a safe and free place to live.
HELLDIVERS™ 2 is a 3rd person squad-based shooter that sees the elite forces of the Helldivers battling to win an intergalactic struggle to rid the galaxy of the rising alien threats. From a 3rd person perspective, players use a variety of weapons (pistols, machine guns, flamethrowers) and stratagems (turrets, airstrikes, etc.) to shoot and kill the alien threats. Players can also aim down the sights for a more accurate 1st person camera view. Combat is accompanied by frequent sprays of blood and dismemberment as players exterminate the alien forces or players and squad mates are hit by environmental explosions or friendly fire. Enemy encampments and battlefield environments depict bloodstains and dismembered corpses.

hot take, another warbond with 1 useful item in it and its another pistol kekw. unless they un-nerf assault rifles?
Looks good, but I’m nervous. The last two WB were very underwhelming. I hope this one proves me wrong. Just a little tired of buying the Webs only to get a couple of useful items.
From what it seems like you're reading from the Sony Blog, it sounds like they got someone to actually write it this time instead of an AI. Go back and read the Polar Patriots blog post and compare the two and you can feel the lack of care being mechanically shoved into the Polar Patriots post. This one feels a bit more organic. Might be worth trying, but it's really hinging on the balance patch. The lack of a balance patch and the Dark Fluid Shrieker end "surprise" did it for me and I don't dive no more. Dunno what they expect a solo diver to do against 50 shriekers and I just don't dive with randos. Unless it's Dremskiy. He's frend. I'm sure that mission would have been more enjoyable with more appropriate spawn rates, but the fact that even on Easy (2) difficulty I couldn't make it out alive.....yeah, unacceptable. Until they change that, my cape's in the wash.
It actually looks really cool and the new jungle biome in the trailer looks very predator esq.
Hey there probably isn’t a chance for this game to come out on PS4 huh?
"THE ENEMY CANNOT PUSH A BUTTON IF YOU DISABLE HIS HAND... MEDIC!" - Drill Sergeant Zim
hah! yep
Drill Sergeant Zim is also Mr. Krabs from SpongeBob.
Great reference. You may also recognize Hank from breaking bad in the training scenes.
It is mandatory for every Helldiver to say "Stick Around" every time the knife is thrown.
Since you mention it too, while they are at it, be cool if they added the predator as a side mission in the game or even aliens since the new aliens movie is out this year. That would be a cool collab and it would fit the game
"Knife to know you" is also suitably democratic.
"Knife to meet you." "Have a slice of a Democracy!" "Sgt. Stabby sends his regards."
I'm sure we'll all have a veritable lexicon full of one-liners before long, lol.
@@SolidPain6624NO. go play cod or fortnite if you absolutley must see your favorite cartoons mashed into unserious worlds of unserious games played by unserious gamers.
The next big drinking game
"The enemy cannot push the button if you disable his hand!"
Drill Sergeant Zim.
...Medic!
To anyone who doesn’t know, yes, the viper commandos are part of the Helldivers lore
Bugs out, guns out!
💪
I literally got my 1k super credits last night and almost bought democratic detonation, glad I waited
At this point of the month I wait for news.
That said, DD is my favorite bond so far, so not a bad choice!
@user-jt1js5mr3f but that eruptor nerf though... that 420 damage is a lie :(
@@ctse26 Not a lie, it really is that low. 😂
@@ctse26 oh I know, that broke my heart. The grenade pistol is still pretty great though, amazing for bug holes. I also love the armor sets, especially the light.
The nade pistol is worth it by itself
Still waiting for the Constitution Rifle. A 5 round, bolt action rifle from the first game that had a fixed bayonette on the end of it for extended melee reach. Loved that gun.
Then I hope we get the bayonets for the Liberator back as well
That’s the super cool stuff we need in this game. But for some reason, the devs are just so terrified that something will be very powerful that now everything is releasing in a disappointing, underwhelming state. If they added that weapon in this game, it would probably do something stupid like having the bayonet break on you.
Here’s hoping Pilestedt as CCO will change some things for the better.
@@absoluteandrew398I’m decently optimistic on that front. His vision is what made the game good in the first place, and the first game balance was pretty on point.
I think he’s been increasingly unable to actually control the game design choices and the people who were making the calls are responsible for the shit show *cough* Alexus *cough*
I’m decently optimistic that with him back in the drivers seat and able to focus on the game things will get back on track pretty quick.
@@munchkingod6 well, some of the communities are ridiculous and they have direct contact with the devs more so than your majority player base does. And they are all for that nerf culture because they are terrified the game will get too easy.
They fail to see the massive upside potential in making ALL of our tools powerful. The game is most fun to me, when my squad actually is mowing down enemies, but the horde. Just. Keeps. Coming.
Buff regular weapons, make us powerful, then expand past difficulty 9 to difficulty 10+ like in the first game, where the hordes get insanely large. Then the game is more positioning, ammo management, and squad play then running around while your stratagems go off cooldown.
@@absoluteandrew398 yeah absolutely agree. The thing I find most frustrating is that so much of the current weapon content is just *bad.*
It’s not that I want to be OP Rambo mode doing a no-death Helldive. It’s that there’s like… 4 guns I would actually use, and 2-3 more that I would consider for specific scenarios. Everything else is a deliberate choice to make the game harder. And those good weapons aren’t broken, they’re just actually fun to use.
I just want every (or at least most) gun to be fun and have a reason to take it. Pre-Nerf slugger for example had drawbacks with ROF and ammo, but the stagger and the AP made it a powerful contender. Now? I’m using the JAR, the DCS, or the Scorcher. There’s no reason to ever take the slugger again. For no reason.
And it’s deeply frustrating how much it limits variety needlessly.
Melee parry on hunters is wayyyy slept on. I think I have over 500 melee kills
Yep once you get the timing down unless they sneak up on you Hunters are a breeze
Works great to interrupt their leaping attack.
Didn’t Alexus patch that out because it was “unintended”?
@@l1ghtd3m0n3wtf you serious?
@@l1ghtd3m0n3 did he? I stopped playing on May 29* and uninstalled-- waiting for the rebalance patch.
As of then, it still worked. I WILL say that more recently, hunters seemed to hesitate to jump until I entered ADS (i.e. not as prepared to melee them)... but I didn't test it extensively-- was probably just bad luck.
Total I have 310 hours playing, unlocked everything, and for a while I only play lvl 9. Just so you can get an idea of my experience with the game-- not trying to brag. But as you can imagine I was playing a lot, and all the way up until I quit on 5/29/2024, the melee parry worked.
I would like melee weapon options/attachments to augment our melee capacities.
I quite like the skin options for the the Pelican, Mech, etc. I would like to see the previous warbonds get these.
Absolutely agree with all of that 🔥🔥
a few of the assault rifles had bayonet attachments in the first game. we just might see something similar eventually
I agree however we should have gotten a skin for the super destroyer instead of the hellpod. Who is even going to see what your hellpod looks like? The thing flies into the ground! 😭
I hope the knives double as a melee weapon
@@mix7893 exactly you only ever see the top! stupid devs! you make me look bad!
That jungle map looks dope.
what is that planet shown in the trailer? i don't ever remember seeing such a planet...
New biome, it actually seems really cool so I’m excited
It could be compared to "Meissa" on the bot front in. Its in the Ymir sector. It is a jungle planet.
@@TFGamingNASCARit looks more like a swamp than meissa which is more jungle like. Love both of these types of biomes though 🤟🏽
It's a new biome, saw it from the leaks and the rest that are yet to come.
This map will be fun
RAMBO WARBOND LES GOOOOO
I feel like the knife would take a grenade slot because it is a "throwable"
Agreed, and if so it’s gonna have to A: do great single target damage, and B: have a lot of “ammo” - if its competing with the high damage, AOE, and utility (hole and factory destruction) of nades
I would take this over a nade if it had a lot of ammo and did a ton of damage with medium armor pen.
Anything less and I don't think it would be worth it.
The more I think about it the more I think it will be in the grenade slot.
The warbond offers a primary, a secondary, an enhancement, and.....a throwable. Similar variety to other warbonds.
I am imagining it may be a good alternative to thermite grenades but for medium targets. Thermite grenades are good cor aiming at the heads of heavies. If I could quick kill medium enemies and had more ammo it may be worth it in some builds.
@@davidking2011I believe it will be retrievable, so as long as you go back and pick it up it can have functionally unlimited ammo
@@awareqwx while I like your optimism, there is no reason to think that will be the case. We may be able to retrieve all knives, only missed knives, or no knives. Sea of Thieves for example only lets you only pick up missed throws.
Even so, how useful would it be to pick up knives at higher difficulty? The only possibility of them being useful would be if they could one or two shot many medium enemies and had a high ammo count, possibly with being able to pick them up.
@@sidpomy I was thinking that if it takes a grenade slot, then you'd dive with however many knives you'd usually have grenades, but that you can recover the knife from wherever it hits.
Ngl, the sleeveless armor looks like something straight out of XCOM 2 and I love it!
The knife would presumably fill the grenade slot. Maybe with the increased melee damage passive, whipping out the knife and fighting hand-to-hand rather than actually throwing it might be viable.
If it has the same melee damage as throwing damage, I’m all for that
Edit: and high attack speed. It’ll need that too
The knife might have durability or you have a bunch of them
If its in the Grenade Slot you probably cant equip it as a Weapon, sadly
@@fuchsmichael93 actually, you can! 😊 At least I’ve been able to do it on PC by pressing “4”
@fuchsmichael93 you can already equip a grenade and run around holding it without throwing. I see no reason they wouldn't allow that with the knife.
I wonder how many divers are going to panic throw the knife at a bile titan lol
What you mean I’m going to take down the bike titian with it 😂
Imagine if it can 1 hit a bile titan!😂
This is the Mobile Infantry / Catachan Jungle / Predator update we've been waiting for.
I don't think they're adding a gear score. That's not a Helldiver mechanic. I just think they're just decreasing the number of unlocks per Warbond. I'm honestly ok with it, since we only ever use 75% of the Warbond anyway, this gives them more time to focus on each individual item. I also wonder if the new "Pattern" system is going to apply to player armors at some point in the future
I doubt they'll release camo patterns for the older armour sets. It's more than likely they'll push on with the new stuff being more personalized.
@@MLPIceberg If you ask me (I love skins, etc) these should be paid for with Requisition, they shouldn't be in Warbonds. They should add a Requisition store in which these things release, I constantly have 50k Requisition with nothing to spend it on..
They need to put out a 'Firebat' armor. No armor so far screams 'I like fire' yet. Bonus points if it reduces burning damage/duration so you can walk into your fire without dying instantly.
One hand shotgun... I'm pumped
Just realized that I can have a shotgun with the ballistic shield (I use it all the time against the bots, very fun playstyle; just make sure you’re running the defender or the pummeler)
I'm break action
Hopefully it’s good vs bots and we have a reason to use the shield
@@bradychapman5645 Oh that's a fun thought
I like the idea of having more customization in helldivers 2.
But a lot of players have been complaining about the last couple were bonds saying that they felt they needed more value in a war bond.
I'm saying 1/3 less armor and half less weapons being added, for what they are calling longer intermission between war bonds.
If it's still going to be $10 I don't think that's an increase in value, I'm willing to give this war bond a pass if they were developed in the customization system and working on the bounce patch at the same time.
However I will be disappointed if the next war bond has only 2 weapons and 2 armors.
I’m not paying for this warbond till the next one comes out , if they keep this momentum where they nerf the previous warbond to “spice up” the new ones than I’m done buying warbonds
Agreed!
The one that did those balancing things is now restricted to doing cosmetics. The CEO now CCO (creative design) essentially took over his place, and I imagine only buffs & "good things" will be coming out now, mostly.
i got sick of that with destiny 2, chopping and changing stuff. you’d spend time grinding and then they nerf it. im sick of companies trying to control the fun.
i really wish more guns were good in helldivers2, most are shit
Personally I wanted a machete, but that's ok.
Personally I wanted a warbond that actually has some viability in high level play
@@NthnLikeCodeine Ha! I know better than to wish for that. I wish we had more traps that weren't mines. Though anti-tank mines would have been nice.
@@NthnLikeCodeineidk this one could be good, new booster seems good and the throwing knife will definitely be useful. Also the secondary gun seems really good and the primary could be
@@derdevil8307 Pilestedt pretty much said they were looking at redoing assault rifles and giving them a proper place. Maybe this is a show of good faith.
@@thatchanguy Barbed wire would be neat, we had that in the first game if i'm not mistaken.
That throwing knife definitely looks interesting. What has me curious is what its selling point might be (aside from looking cool, of course).
I assume that it’s going to take up your grenade slot. So we’re talking about sacrificing aoe and the ability to destroy bug holes and fabricators (unless AH decided to make it do the latter). So we’d need some pretty good stuff in exchange to make it worth taking on a mission.
First, I think a large supply would be suitable - say 10 or more knives (though imo it should be 20). Then its handling should be such that they can be pulled out and thrown in rapid succession, no slower than a half second between throws, ideally. The armor penetration should probably be 4-5, not because it makes sense, but because it really does need something to make it a viable alternative to grenades. Then it will need some serious damage seeing as it will be a single target throwable.
I don’t know what the actual stats are on this throwing knife, but I personally hope they are really, really good, because without that, I don’t see it being practical outside of a solo easy or trivial mission.
Of course, it could instead be a secondary, which then would change my whole take on it.
I really hope its a Secondary, because then you can equip it and use a Melee Attack, with the new Armor Passive.
Getting Personal with those Hunters.
Hopefully they will fix the theme of the other warbonds. Like ice boots and just make the tiger stripe and woodland into arctic color camo and give us that! I bet that knife is melee and CAN be thrown. That means more melee damage! Woot! Stim booster + stim armor + stim pack! Medic fantasy incoming! Also, we usually get 3 armor sets and 2 more primary guns. Maybe they don’t want to make too many weapons because of redundancy.
Permacura, put your life in OUR hands 👍🏼!
They are taking a huge risk. If the patch is bad and the weapons on this warbond are bad the game is done. I am hoping and praying that things go well. I miss playing helldivers. I miss having fun. I don't want to play a chore.
It's difficult for me to be excited for warbonds anymore. The last couple of have been duds, or, had nice weapons in them that then got nerfed into the ground.
Yeah, I'm really less excited about the warbond and more hopeful of the balancing. I feel like the Liberator Carbine is just going to be a worse Stalwart, in my opinion. I don't see the devs having those MGs in the game be worse than the upcoming LC. It would make the MGs not worth using (they already kinda are not worth using, but they each were made to fight certain enemies even the Heavy MG.)
Yeah and if you aren't just pissing your pants with excitement all the time the world is gonna end.
@@VicetheGreat What a valuable contribution to this discussion.
Honestly i haven't played for 2 weeks now, got everything unlocked all currency maxed out, nothing to unlock and most of my group I played with moved on to other games (edit: just tried to play some random games, and the first 2 games I tried to join made my game crash 🫤)
I haven't touched HD2 in about 4 weeks. I love it the game, I stopped around lvl 80 after getting burned out to many times. I sincerely hope the game goes back to the glory days, I hate that I kept getting burned out after 2 or 3 matches.
Anyone else feel a little cautious and unimpressed?
If the way the warbonds have always been revealed is three armors and primaries, one secondary and one grenade, why change from that pattern, there's an entire month between releases and armors along with weapons have been seen long before their official release date.
One less armor, what's weird is there's been another armor that fits a similar aesthetic for a long time now, it could've been the light and the light be the medium, as it's the same general design of even the default armor, their passive is cool though.
There's only one primary and it's another Liberator, HD1 had only 3 Liberator variants and they were that because one was a carbine and the other the battle rifle versions of, they had different scopes, sizes and big differences in stats but if it's a good spot between the Liberator and the Defender I might like it.
The throwing knives, I wish it was like in sea of thieves where you can melee with it and only does aiming make it throwable, maybe grenading throws it and if you have any when meleeing you use the knife instead for more damage, if not that maybe being able to hold more than just 4 or 6 and be able to pick them up after use.
The booster sounds good.
The star of the warbond imho has to be the shotgun, I'm a little worried that the fire all 3 barrels will be like the double barrel you find, where it'll fire both barrels quickly instead of the same time, because they're treated like a burst fire, though I think it could've been a quad barrel.
Lastly the cosmetics for Pelican, EXO and Hellpods:
EXO's hardly used because both pretty much suck, this one is just for the Patriot.
Pelican you hardly do see or stick around to get a look at.
Hellpods are meant to go into the ground.
The hellpod skin applies to all hellpods, including support weapon pods, turrets, emplacements, etc. which have a thing that pops up and sticks around for a while
I’m not a fan of less weapons in the war bonds and more time in between them. I don’t think it’s hard for them to just program them with better stats. It wasn’t like they were coming out buggy and broken other then the air burst launcher. They literally just have to raise numbers.
I kind of wish we didn't have to randomize the skin tone. It's always felt weird that I have a "career" in stats and accomplishments that apparently involved hundreds of disposable soldiers.
yeah, my personal headcanon has been that when someone signs on to be a helldiver, they are placed in cryo and cloned. A neural link is maintained for consistency, but it allows them to die over and over but maintain consistency and improve.
Kind of like that episode of Doctor Who where they worked with toxic materials, so they used clones for the dangerous work.
Don't think of yourself as the helldiver think of yourself as the ship or are The collective helldiver "regiment" of your ship
@@therandomcommenter6629 that works, though I prefer my clone approach (even though it’s not canonical, I like it)
Kind of a missed opportunity to make a tip of the hat to the Predator franchise with a Stalker in the Commando trailer.
I refuse to get excited until I see how the new stuff performs on release
I use melee a lot. Pushing enemies off me, whacking scavengers to save ammo... pretty useful, more damage is nice
Liberator carBEAN!! I literally almost died
I'm hoping the throwable knife still does melee damage with it. It's also kinda a missed opportunity we don't have a shield bash with the tactical shield backpack
I'm maxed out on everything and have over 4k credits so I'm just helping out new cadets and farming more credits while I'm at it.
I still love this damn game and I can't wait for the new Warbond, upcoming patch and the Illuminate.
Game is solid and nobody can make me hate it.
I can’t wait for the Rambo/Arnold build, with any of the Stalwart/Machine Gun/Heavy Machine Gun strats going straight 80’s action mode. And that Bushwacker ooohhhweeee!! That’s got my name on it my boy.
This warbond makes me think of the first Predator movie
Oh god, I'm getting Sly Marbo vibes here. We need the Helldivers 2 version of Rambo and Arnold here.
I hope the different skins for ships, hellpods and mechs can be the precursors to armors and helmets getting the option to change shader/color so we can make them match color schemes (or not of the player chooses)
Would also allow squads to all choose the same colors to match.
So pumped, kinda bummed i bought the Detonation WB last night, oh well...
Getting the vibe that the knife is gonna take the grenade slot. I hope not, but I'm not seeing this take a secondary or support slot. We shall see...
The stun, smoke, impact and incendiary impact are all listed as “special grenades”, thus they’re probably going to change the name to “special throwable” and add in the throwing knife seeing as that would be a minor change.
Don't fret. The Democratic Detonation is nearly guaranteed to offer vastly more value and fun over this warbond.
Adjudicator is a fun battle rifle now. Eruptor one shots most medium targets. The Grenade Pistol is perhaps the single most valuable item as it greatly increases bug hole/bot factory destruction. The crossbow is cool but not great. The thermite grenade is great against heavy armor, especially if thrown on a weak spot. It feels like a throwing knife...that burns and explodes.
Additionally, the armors look good.
I don't think it is possible for the new warbond to be better unless the throwing knife is stupidly OP. The slightly different Liberator certainly won't factor in.
“Disclaimer: all items come pre-nerfed per the will of Alexus.”
Wish we had some sort of idea of just how much of a melee damage boost the armor gives, the thought of punching a hunter and sending it a flying corpse is a beautiful one
Warbond looks cool but let's get an update on when they are reworking how armor works and buff weapons, unique buffs not just raising DMG numbers.
All I am happy for right now is that we got a new perk in the armoury.
Looks like Sly Marbo has joined the Helldivers
the mech jungle camo is just a bandaid yeah it looks nice but it doesnt change the fact it takes the entire rocket pod and all the ammo in an autocannon mech to kill 1 bile titan
Lets hope they retroactively rework some of the old armours dor those unique environmental passives. All and all this new warbond looks very promising
melee might be weak but the utility of a stun cannot be understated. it completely stops broodmothers in their tracks and prevents most terminids from landing an attack for a moment.
Anyone heard anything about patrol spawns? Like…when are they fixing them?
Or did they 🫣
I think they did but maybe not
In the same patch that theyre going to release all the buffs and such, which is not yet
I swear that patrols were eased a while ago. It does not feel like unfair bullshit any more and I swear 7 difficulty feels more manageable, than 5th difficulty was during PSN drama days.
@@oditeomnes If it did, then its pretty good
Tho for me, I always wait for people to join my lobby before I start the mission
One issue with the last war bond was that the Tenderizer ended up being a Liberator reskin due to the Liberator getting buffed before the war bond came out. That said, I don't mind getting new Liberator variants if they can fit a need/play style. But the ARs in general need that rework.
Randomized skin tones is awesome. I love the story consistency.
It seems to me they want this game to be amazing and they are doing everything they can to make the players proud. It’s a game that has gotten a crazy life of its own and the studio is still young and learning. It takes ages to do this stuff
Totally a reference to the Catachan jungle fighters. I'm all for it
im confused because like 3 weeks ago ah said they hired a few new staff to help so they can work on patches and warbonds and it not slow them down. now we’re being told warbonds won’t be a monthly thing and the amount of content in them will be less. how do you hire more staff and now work slower and have less output… if they didn’t have 3 different patches of nerfs they wouldn’t have to undo all this bs.
Wow those player numbers!
AH you did yourself dirty didn't ya...
Acamar IV has already been liberated, I'm guessing he said that hours before video upload.
Phact Bay is next, I saw +30 000 divers there
Pretty much. Doing all the editing for a video like this likely takes 2-3 hours minimum.
13 hours to liberation right now
@SignoftheMagi thanks for this, i honeslty didn't know👍😁
KNIFEEEEE
It would be cool if equipping the throwing knife gave you bonus melee damage and you could stab enemies with it

For those of us who have been playing for ages we already know it when we see it (550 Speed), but mentioning whether an armor is a +Speed & -Armor, or -Speed & +Armor variation may be useful. There are some exceptions, but I believe both Light and Medium have a collection of "Variant A / Variant B" armors, and is why things like the Breaker Light Armor are faster than the Light medic passive armor we have (which has slightly more armor to compensate).
I think the throwing knife takes your grenade slot. Looks good either way.
PUT YOUR HAND ON THAT WALL!
Finally. A Helldiver skin that I feel represents nicely. Will unlock and wear exclusively until something better comes along showing off those guns.
The engineer lady on my ship mentioned something about a dining hall on the Super Destroyer. I’d love it if AH could expand the explorable area of the ship and add rooms like that
Thanks for keeping me in the loop while I lose my life while playing Destiny 2! 😊
Haha I feel like there's a lot of overlap there with player bases for D2 and HD2
@@ClairvoyantLastrusi can never go back to D2, they lost me due to shitty repetitive seasonal content.
@@clockworkman8210 Well the latest expansion didn't mess up at all, and the new stuff coming out is different then other seasons. The ending of the saga happened today
@@ClairvoyantLastrus ive heard that before and then the content is always the same, im glad you’re enjoying it though
that throwing knife combined with infinite grenade glitch would be glorious
Sounds like that KPOP killer in DBD...
Didn't the infinite grenade glitch get patched?
@@RobbazCorgiPikaPikaMadaFaka yes and no. Players found another way to abuse it.
Grande glitch is sad af imagine exploiting in a pve skilless madenless
The knife is able to be picked up and is reusable
The knife will be perfect for picking your teeth with based on how arrowhewd distributes damage for our weapons. And if the 2 new weapons can kill wn explosive barrel with a full clip i will be genuinly surprised.
Man I’m 100% buying this I love the theme , Vietnam/predator style looks dope and badass! I hope we get to play on that jungle planet to
Why are people getting excited for this warbond, we're literally getting less then we normally do.
Foreal. Less things in the bond. They're adding the super creds in place of a new gun.
@oppikomusic no. We always got 300 credits ,100 each page.
They are giving the skins for the pelican, pod and Mecha and a title. Overall it's 1 less item cuz we lose 2 primaries, 1 armor, 1 banner and 1 cape.
So not only we get 2 less weapons and 1 less armor set, but we also get 1 less cape and banner.
All for the same price. Best part? The ONLY PRIMARY is a fkn liberator, the same exact base gun but it shoots a bit faster for more recoil. Not even a new and unique gun. This warbond is the worst.
We should have got the battle rifle in this pass, alongside the big sniper rifle. And the last armor set was gonna be a super cool broken armor that resembles the helghast from Killzone.
Instead we get this shit. and people are clapping for getting less.
I am also incredibly disappointed.
2 less primaries
1 less armor set
One less player card
One less cape.
I get the new "quality over quantity" and focus on cosmetics, but I feel even by these metrics this warbond is greatly inferior.
The liberator carbine is a barely modified version of one of the least used weapons. I doubt any of us ever thought "you know this liberator is so sluggish, I would trade to higher recoil if I could whip it around a bit faster!"
The shotgun is ok, the throwing knife is guaranteed to be hot garbage unless it is so good one will take it over grenades like stun, thermite, impact, or incendiary. Looks cool, but I am worried it won't be worth it outside the novelty.
The issue with the other warbonds wasn't a lack of inspiration for new weapons, it was crap balancing. Even the Polar Patriots warbond would have been immensely popular if the tendeizer actually hit hard and the Purifier could one shot medium enemies like the eruptor instead of taking 5 shots.
Quality over quantity? Two armors vs three. Sure they look cool, but so have the ones when we got 3 per warbond. Sure they have unique passives, but so did two of the other warbonds. Not having a new unique passive is not "focusing on quantity, it is being lazy." Even random people on the forums can each come up with a dozen fun and unique passives.
Focus on cosmetics?
Recolors for one mech, the drop ship, and the hellpod. They are ok, but not anything to get too excited about. I have a feeling the Pelican would be client side only sincr it's shared. Also, a reskin of a mech no one uses?
Also, while the armors have great cosmetic qualities, it's still 2 vs 3.
Again, 66% less primaries, 33% less armor and appearances, 33% less capes, 33% less player cards, 33% less player cards.
I really like the theme of the new warbond, but I am very worried and disappointed that this is all we get with double the time between warbonds.
Also, I find it amusing they give this reason for slowing down warbonds:
"This will prevent us from simply adding more of everything, which can lead to weapons that feel redundant".
Then they just add in a *barely different* version of the Liberator as the only new primary. The irony is too much.
"Allow our helldivers to roleplay their favorite soldier fantasies, and then nerf the shit out of it".
I cannot wait to throw my knife at anything in the game that it's not a Scaveger, does zero damage and gets lost in the midde of the swarm.
Wrong game.
I haven't even turned on HD2 in 4 days. I'll believe the weapons are good when the warbond comes out and the weapons aren't prenerfed, and aren't then later nerfed 2 weeks later.
Just watched starship troopers, i see the inspiration now 😂
Finally, a warbond worth buying.
DD was great
@@user-jt1js5mr3fwhich one was that?
@@massimobackwardsDemocratic Detonation is my guess. the one with the eruptor and crossbow
@@periwinkle2486 heard that one was pretty bad weapon wise. They got nerfed to the ground I heard. Keep in mind I just started playing this game a few weeks ago, I got the steeled veterans one, it’s so fun
@@periwinkle2486 and the grenade pistol, which is great.
I also love the light armor with the extra grenades
Lt, you ready for this? The throwing knife and ballistic shield pack with the new melee passive...
Well played, Helldiver!

In most shooters, the way they balance & differentiate similar Assault Rifles is FIRING RATE.
IMO the base Liberator's DPS should feel similar to the *_Stalwart_* at its default fire mode (850 RPM).
Liberator: ~800 RPM / 60 Ammo / 60 DMG
AP Liberator: ~750 RPM / 45 Ammo / 64 DMG
Concussive Liberator: 640 RPM / 45 Ammo / 75 DMG
Liberator Carbine: 960 RPM / 60 Ammo / 50 - 60 DMG
*(Battle Rifles)*
AR-61 Tenderizer: 600 RPM / 35 Ammo / 90 DMG (Current = 60 Dmg)
BR-14 Adjudicator: 550 RPM / 25 Ammo / 120 DMG (Current = 80 Dmg)
*(Marksman Rifles)*
R-63 Diligence: 350 RPM / 20 Ammo / 175 DMG (Current = 125 Dmg)
R-63 CS Diligence: 350 RPM / 15 Ammo / 200 DMG (Current = 140 Dmg)
Dominator needs 5 extra rounds (from 15 to 20) and better Handling.
Scorcher also needs 5 extra rounds.
So, i have watched multiple youtubers this morning raving about the new warbond. And you know what i noticed? They all are repeating some of the same lines. The one that sticks out the most is all of them say right off the bat that this new warbond "hits hard". Tin foil hat time, but it looks like AH is doing a PR campaign with content creators. Funny that they couldn't even get that right and sent the same script to everyone. Lol
Yeah, I feel the same way mate. It's so uncanny to hear the same wording patterns from different creators. IDK maybe I'm just weird ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Lmao you late my boy. This whole mediocre game is a hype machine. They so pumped about the new war bond when the last 3 have been pure dumpster juice? Of course they being paid off…
Copy and paste.
Looks like a combination of Metal Gear, COD and Doom, I'm getting this Warbond when it drops
I wonder if they’re teasing at new environments, by showing us this jungle 👀
I'm hoping for a gas themed warbond soon, full gasmask/MOP gear helldivers with gas grenades and maybe a chemical thrower? It'd be pretty fcking sweet
They say they don't want to add weapons that feel "redudant" the proceed to add one of the most redundant and generic primaries we've seen yet.
only 1 primary, only 2 armor sets, 'customization' that's literaly just paint over already existing models and grenade that will probably be buggy as hell or straight up bad. I sure hope this warbond is cheaper than the rest, if not then it's a really really bad sign.
The armour actually has new passives that improve weapon handling.
I’m with you, this WB objectively has less content than the others. I will say it looks cool and everything actually fits the theme unlike PP last month but if it’s 1k SC like the others it’ll be a total ripoff considering the lower amount of content
One collaboration I definitely want to see in Helldivers would be Star Wars. I (and probably many others) would go absolutely feral for some storm trooper and clone trooper armor sets/weapons.
Not while K.K. is in charge of LF. She will force changes into the game you will hate, and it is clear she does not care about losing money to push her agenda. she would run HD into the ground because that would be her only purpose for getting LF involved with HD to begin with. I am all for a Clone Trooper-esk uniform and mech cosmetics to make them look like walkers, but not as long as the current leadership of LF is in control.
Imagine dumping the 40k universe into format like helldivers
There are mods that add it.... and they are bad tf ass. My son is obsessed with the star wars clone troopers mod
Keep that sell-out Fortnite/COD crossover bullshit to yourself. When those thoughts enter your head, keep them there. Releasing them into the wild offends Managed Democracy.
4:16 I can already hear "MOZAMBIQUE HERE" from a mile away
The new rifle will probably have California compliance magazines, shotgun useless outside of point blank range, knife 1 hit Ko BT and factory striders
Not sure I wanna give up my grenade for the knife.
I do because it’s just cooler tbh. And the knife could be good who knows
@@derdevil8307 it does look cool, completely agree with that! Just don't see how one kill knife will replace function of multi-kill grenade. Will have to see how it plays.
I can’t wait for every single weapon except for one to be untested, pre-nerfed, and with the aim scope misaligned.
If you want a clear indication of what exactly Weapon Handling is, grab the JAR Dominator and swing it around a bit. You'll ABSOLUTELY feel it in seconds; a percentage-based increase to Weapon Handling effectiveness, if they go high, should feel absolutely night and day, and cause the Dominator to give the Plasma Scorcher a huge run for its money.
It also could make the Eruptor and machinegun Support Weapons much, MUCH more satisfying, though the latter will be hurting for that Recoil control of the other two passives.
Looking forward to roleplay the RA3 Peacekeeper with the SG22 and the Ballistic Shield!
I hope it's not complete dog shit like the last war bond
I have a feeling it will be.
Scorcher, out of stamina, aim down, shoot, stim, full stamina.
The problem with stims is Alexus making literally everything interrupt and cancel them. I hate that so much.
This witch hunt against Alexus is detrimental to our ability to give good feedback to AH and needs to stop. What makes you think Alexus is responsible for how stimming is interrupted? Even if that's the case, blaming him instead of just saying "the way this works feels bad and makes the game less fun" ruins your credibility. If you actually want the game to improve, stop doing that.
@@mcarpen89 criticism isnt a witch hunt
@@storm___ blaming Alexus for how stimming works is absolutely a witch hunt. Don't try to blow smoke up my ass about this. You cannot possibly know that was his decision, and even if it was, it was signed off on by the leadership. The leadership is responsible for the product. Leave the individual employees out of it.
@@mcarpen89 okay alexus 🤣
@@storm___ Thank you for being honest this time
I think the throwing knofe will count as melee damage making the armor and throwing knife go hand in hand and hopefully making the throwing knife beastly and so much fun to use
They need to fix the running animation with the new SMG. The bare arms clip into the chest armor deep enough that it looks really bad. It was painfully obvious when you showed a close up of a Diver running at 10:38 min in. That elbow needs to come out about 2 to 3 inches relative.
I mean, sure, it wouldn’t hurt to polish animations, but this is frankly a trivial cosmetic issue - something that you probably shouldn’t be paying much attention to while a swarm of bugs is chasing you down.
And considering more serious concerns like balancing, bugs, exploits, and the need for a steady stream of new content, I’d say the devs shouldn’t pay much attention to it either, at least for now.
@@GGBlaster True, I work in Blender 3D, so things like that likely stick out to, and bother me more than most.
"This goes hard" really? They removed a set of armor for a pattern on you're exo which is still trash BTW ANOTHER assault rifle that will most likely be just as mid as all the other ones, shotgun pistol looks decent but still nowhere as useful as the grenade launcher pistol, and we've been begging for a meele weapon and we get throwing knives instead which I'm assuming it'll take away you're grenade so that's garbage and putting yourself at a huge disadvantage for just 2 throwing knives when you carry 4 grenades at stock the team in arrowhead I don't fucking get why they have to hold their game back from being even better this game right here is the best example of "what the developers want vs what the gamer want"
Yep, this WB has 2 fewer primaries and 1 fewer armor set all in exchange for some vehicle skins you’ll see for what, a few minutes every few hours of gameplay?
Don't use mechs, so for me the mech skins might as well not even be there
Damn y’all boys complaining before it even comes out! That’s not patriotic.
@@PoloJuan103 True
@@PoloJuan103they aint sheep. Let the devs know this aint it.
The throwing knife will likely replace your grenade. It is listed as special throwable which is the same category as thermals, impacts and stuns
Mac: Buddy buddy-buddy-buddy-buddy. I've seen some bad-ass bush before, man, but nothin' like this.
Blain: I hear ya. This shit's somethin'. Makes Cambodia look like Kansas.
Missed a chance to add something like an M60 primary for jungle warfare lol
I think another cool armor boost option for future armors would be a mech pilot armor. Something like turning speed and movement speed boost or something.
I would love to see an overhaul to the armors from the warbond with incentives to use different armors on different planets, even something small like the polar gear providing a small boost to stamina regen on cold planets and these new ones on like jungle-esq planets. Something like the laser weapons, I just like the idea of changing the gear im on depending on the planets although I can easily see the balance issue with this and it is a definitely in pay to play/win territory, maybe they could issue some standard armors that have the buffs idk I'm just yapping
That new secondary would be perfect if they give back the old eruptor ;-;
This warbond looks really good. Just wish the studio had this mind set for warbonds since release. The cutting edge was the last warbond that I really liked.
