1:08:00 Why they are so bad at war? Because Super Earth doesn't have any real space navy (at lest none was shown to this date) and they rely solely on Super Destroyers which are more or less orbital support vessels and not space combat ones.
Considering that said 4 teams of soldiers CAN complete the mission, they are elite. The idea is the same as a Helljumper and Spartan. They're specialized soldiers sent on suicide missions to turn the tide which is why sending a butt load of them is a lot more risky as you'd be wasting valuable resources if everything goes wrong. They aren't SEAF soldiers or Guardsman, they're closer to being a shock trooper like the Kasrkins
exactly, these helldivers aren't trained for "5 minutes" and the tut isnt the only training. if that were, none of these soldiers would even be properly trained to survive a trbial mission, let alone reload a gun. they've joined SEAF at 9, and Super Earth culture is militarism, so they've been trained for almost their entire life. And even rewarded a gun just for turning 16.
Thank you, because nobody understands that they are elite soldiers they’re going into missions against hundreds of things that could instantly kill them and are using war crimes mind control antitank weapons, and all of that crap on human beings and winning. They even have vastly superior kill count to like Americas best soldiers and there’s only four of them
@@49mozzer Not at all they are only considered canon fodder because there’s so many of them, but they all really elite soldiers the average hell diver Gets 3 to 4 times the kills a Navy seal gets mind you multiple of those things that kill are things that are the size of the buildings or actually moving buildings not only that the spear what is a better javelin and a single javelin rocket costs $1 million they get four rockets meaning they are definitely not expendable because their equipment is expensive as hell they are kind of expendable just because there’s so many of them but you get the point I’m trying to make
@@carlosvicenty-9856 So in other words Super Earth is gonna bankrupt itself with the upkeep of this war. I don't care how many planets they got, there is no way in hell they can possibly sustain themselves while fighting a 3, possibly even 4, front war when every Helldiver deployment probably costs more then the gold held in Fort Knox.
Although Helldivers are dispencable, a Helldiver is an elite citizen in Helldivers Lore. The population is much bigger and to be a Helldiver you have to be an elite war veteran but there are thousands like you. Except John Helldiver probably, he’s probably the best HD.
They’re disposable but elite shock troops akin to modern day paratroopers. Dropped behind enemy lines or in the thickest concentrations of enemies. The SEAF do the majority of the battles whereas the helldivers are stabbing the enemies in the back where it hurts targeting high value targets paving the way for the SEAF
Demo Officer here; I have clearance to tell you the Automatons' own name for themselves is "Automaton Collective" written in Swedish. (It's written on the side of the Factory Striders in bot language , but in Swedish.)

All of the ice cream barges were in the Pacific, specifically in Ulithi but there’s apparently one source that says there was one in Guadalcanal as well
Still my favourite and honestly after hundreds of hours trying out all different types of armor I fell back to default blue basic armor. Partner it up with shield backpack and You’ll die rarely that its easy to do deathless runs with it.
I would love to see a part 2 in a year or so, when new lore is made by both the devs and the community. Honestly one of the only good live service games from the last five years. I love Helldivers :3
For sure, if you think about it a squad of 4 soldiers (or even 1) killing 1000+ enemies and liberating a entire sector of a planet pretty much speaks for itself on their skills
You should also consider that, according to the recent lore about the terminid research facility, the one that studies the gloom, they mentioned that the E-710 from these planets is more efficient than the regular one, like 10x, making it more appealing to develop technologies to travel those unreachable planets so we can take that resource and "travel even beyond the planets we already know", so technically we might see a map expansion, maybe we could reach Kepler Prime
The blue laser conspiracy theories can easily be debunked as shell-shocked Helldivers seeing their teammates' ricochets unexpectedly zoom across their visor as the tracers turn blue after bouncing off hard surfaces. Super Earth's Ministry of Intelligence would've been aware of any real squid espionage and reconnaissance operation ahead of the Illuminates' return.
Sure. Just like they were aware of Shriekers and Factory Striders. Everything is on a need to know basis until you needed to know yesterday. Mark my words, HighCom is going to regret their cloak and dagger tactics.

Misconception!! Helldivers are ELITE SOLDIERS maybe not in the same way Master Chief or the ODST are but every Helldiver needs 6 months (I think, might be more or less time) as a S.E.A.F. soldier before they can become a Helldiver. The average Helldivers age is 18 and their life span is 2 seconds because A. Super Earths society and their military go hand in hand, encouraging service by age 16. B. Helldivers are dropped far behind enemy lines after SEAF forces have been pushed back already. So they essentially fight on the war's most dangerous battlefields. Of course they're gonna die. All in all we are not clueless meat bags sent to our death, we are the best of the best. That still doesn't mean we're all that great though, we just have the numbers to win
Who else thought that Termacide was never meant to kill the bugs from the moment it was announced. When it turned them into shreikers i was surprised that people were surprised I still remember a bug sympathizer video about how those missions are so sad because they're destroying the tower so they can survive but all i could think was "stupid bugs are trying to prevent SE from upgrading them".
14:35 sony actually started to unblock certain regions recently. what used to be ca. 177 blocked countries are now "only" 130. so we might see more unblocked in the (hopefully near) future
Dont forget that every mission you play on HD2 (maybe HD1 idk) is canon to the story. Every objective completed and failed, every teamkill and citizen saved, every planet liberated and lost actually happens in Helldivers lore and continues developing the story as we play. Also, the joke about the forklift and shovel is pretty simple. Fans have been begging to fulfill their Death Korps of Krieg fantasies with a shovel melee weapon. When this was denied, they turned to the forklift, which can found across various planets. The fanbase yearns to drive a forklift for some reason. The video simply combined the shovel and forklift demands into one big blue ball.
I experienced first hand the first shrieker sightings way back when, it was so cool feeling like you don't know what you might end up fighting one day, it was the same for factory striders iirc(it was dreadful)
Automatons churn human bodies for bio fuel, just like humans churning terminids for E-710. Also on I think super helldive, you'd be facing automaton fortress that when destroyed will have you transport an automaton head back to extraction. It yields some samples but I can't help but to consider about the automatons built on human brains theory
I’m not sure if someone in the comments mentioned it but around June when the bots arrived in force, the major order briefing mentions that preceding all the battles from that point were just ‘mere special military operations’ in reference to a recent military conflict. It may just be a part of your level 7 archive clumped with the allegories, but I think it drives the satire home for me.
Personal notes as a historian of the game (creator of HOWL project which is a very expansive documentation of the war down to the minutes) 5:54 “three battles for malevelon creek” it was 4,3 liberation campaigns and 1 defense campaign but I digress 6:15 funnily enough the record for longest campaign is actually the 2nd Battle of Clasa which is still ongoing at 19 weeks and 5 days as of this message 10:55 random extra tidbit but the Emancipator or “AC Mech” was unlocked during the Varylia 5 MO 14:35 I forgot how recent but some territories were removed from the region lock (I believe 33) 16:23 (07:13pm UTC 2nd June 2024) for anyone who cares this is the exact date of it being turn into a “blackhole” its a wormhole as confirmed by the game lore recently lmao 16:42 so about that lmao, warp links all got removed and the planet is no longer visitable as of this comment although may change as the plot develops 18:34 okay, just for the record because this is a personal pet peeve of mine but there are very few actually named operations. The vast majority of major orders actually go unnamed with community names and this is one of them. 22:58 okay so funny story here. Compare the sector outlines from the video to the sector outlines we actually have. In all likely hood they are using a map in the visuals that was pre-release and never corrected it 25:21 I’m more of a light-hearted squid sympathizer myself but yea its fun stuff 26:04 has to do with the melee penetration and the range increase if I recall correctly, every enemy in the is possible to melee to death with it. 30:25 using a special zigzag movement its possible to trick the leading of the traitor barrage shots to run forever, made even easier if shield backpack is used 34:05 Theres some murky issues with quoting stats from the game. The way the game handles the recording of stats doesnt work well (for examples look at death count on Rirga Bay and the overall stats of Tien Kwan). Generally speaking any planet fought on before the Reclamation has incomplete stats. There is also leftover dev (and/or hacker) testing stats on a decent amount of planets. Rirga Bay there’s no known explanation for though. It’s cool to quote the stats in game but do keep this in mind. 34:39 I should stop nitpicking on the phrasing but the gloom technically appeared between Socorro III and Enuliale. To this day Socorro actually still has the lowest possible level of gloom despite being under SE control for a long while. From (09:38am UTC 6th Aug 2024) to (03:04pm UTC 27th Aug 2024) the gloom rapidly expanded to take over 14* systems not 13. 15 if we want to count Socorro which is meh 35:29 personally I gotta give a shoutout to helldiverscompanion its a great website with relatively accurate estimation models and the devs are always working on updating it to include new features and stay updated with the game 37:00 *thousand yard stare* the Acamar IV incident of the 12th of Nov 2024, 5 bug defenses at once. Also notably theres a joke about how whenever Acamar had a surrounding planet liberated it would have a liberation campaign open briefly and it was possible to start new missions. Jokingly dubbed the zoo tours of Acamar (which if memory serves did get a mention in a dispatch after it fell) This also applies to gloom worlds in liberation campaigns opening but theirs an api effect to prevent people from jumping to fully gloomed systems. People already on those worlds should be able to theoretically start new missions if any remain though. 41:01 Theres actually ones of basically all the automaton units and some of the squid ones floating around now 43:24 is a really long story but those images were more or less faked. Its a very high quality fake but there was zero api data to back it up (nothing can show up on the multiplayer wide map without having a corresponding data result in the api as the map reads from the api to display stuff) so it wasn’t generated legitimately even if it did happen in-game. 47:24 oh god people mistaking weapon shots and the ricochet for the squids. Theres also a spike planet on one biome type that can cause “blue lasers” to appear when a large entity interacts with it 52:47 They are low poly poorly rendered super destroyer models lmao 54:26 Outpost 32 is confirmed to not even be a possible planet name to generate in hd1’s game files. Its caused a lot of grief but there is no actual solid *confirmed* evidence of the reddit posts talking about Outpost 32 being factual. It’s a psyop folks lmao. Its a poster that for whatever reason exists in the game but has no actual tangible lore attached to it besides fan-made lore (other then the poster) 1:07:34 Mars is not an actual world on the “map” as we know it and as such isn’t possible for us to fight on a wider scale beyond the tutorial unless changes are made to the current game state. 1:11:03 Well as I mentioned earlier its Dev or Hacker related stats and for whatever reason the Devs have never bothered to correct stats from things like these. 1:14:54 its a model rendering thing, often happens when theres issues with game files. Revalidating game files usually helps (if on steam) Well ending comments, theres a lot of memes that go unmentioned, “29” personally being the saddest thing I that I didnt see. It’s a running joke in the hd2 discord server to reply to any number question with 29. It’s a joke that writes itself. Also theres like holy shit a lot of cursed documentation related tidbits I could talk about but this probably isn’t the place. HD2 is truly an expansive game and I love it so much. Hopefully all this gives some more context.
holy shit i'm 5 min in and this is such an amazing video already, love the pace, tone, vibe instant sub :D cheers for the insane content super citizen!
12:16 Each Helldiver above 4 would either require another Super Destroyer or they share one, which reduces maximum stratagem throughput. Also, can you imagine the increase in friendly fire if more than 4 Helldivers are in one spot, lol?
Good news on the whole region-locking thing: the game has been unblocked in 40 countries. Fixing that whole debacle seems to still be a priority for Arrowhead - they've got a cape with the review bomb graph on it ready to go when the rest of the countries are unblocked, and Pilestedt has confirmed they're still working with Sony to get the rest of them unblocked.
the black fluid from the Illuminate could also have been some kind of strategy to plot a return after being defeated. There is enough reason to expect Super Earth not to be able to withstand the thrill of using it some day in a last ditch effort (as they did on Meridia) which would then not create a black hole as we see it but rather a way to enter the galaxy from their save haven, which is as of now pretty much imminent with the black hole growing in the last weeks and currently beeing completely vanished with a Spacetime Fluctuation Indicator showing in the Map screen
Bro the bushwhacker slaps against bugs. It stops charging warriors and stalkers in their tracks. In fact you can wing a charging stalker, walk up into its face and one tap it. The reload is pretty fast too. I recommend yall try it out. I’ve run it with carbines, shotguns, and the crossbow and it was great with all of them
This has made me want to play Helldivers again. I haven’t played since we won the Creek. I don’t know if I’m ready, or if the PTSD of Space Vietnam is still too much.
Helldivers are just the ingame paratrooper. Fun fact, paratroopers have a 20% survival rate for airborne operations. So its fairly accurate as an airborne simulation
One thing I've never seen mentioned online or in these iceburgs is the 'fence smashing' references in the game. Several of the engineer branded armours have references in their description to how effective they are for smashing fences etc. I've not been able to find any explanation for this and assumed it was an inside joke from the first game or something. Anyone else have any info?
38:03 A correction for the Tekken meme for very few of those who might be interested. This is the input of Electric Wind God Fist (or EWGF), a very powerful and arguably the best move in Tekken that evades attacks, completely safe and if you land gives you a full combo resulting in massive damage. Although it requires good execution since last 2 buttons (down-forward and triangle) need to be pressed at exactly the same frame
The shovel could be an aster egg from Warhammer 40k where there are a militia of soldiers from the Deathworld of Kriege that use shovels as melee weapons
1:15:10 I saw Someone's Guard dog as a pink question mark the other day, I see it every couple of matches. On lower end devices with graphics settings that it can barley handle the pink textures happens a lot.
1:11:20 the casualtys are from helldivers who managed to get killed in training via dropping a resupply pod on there head or something. And the dead bugs are from the bugs that we kill during training. As for the dead squids and bots. My best guess was some private altered version of the training map for testing new enemies or something
33:55 You are forgetting the connectivity issues throughout the lifetime of the malevelon creek battle period. MANY divers deaths were unreported. It was to the point that the server was completely unplayable at times and only a handful of ships were in the sky to represent online players. It is a guarantee that malevelon had more losses due to the starting player count of the game exceeding all others thus far and the addition of round the clock players before the PSN region ban.
@Nikos. Fun fact, the region locking has been removed as of literally a week ago. They are waiting for the big announcement probably for the anniversary of the game in a week.
@@Nikos. I am a member of Claysthetics and watch him regularly, and he showed us the changes that steam always reports when devs upload something to their games, and it showed all the restrictions being removed
the best way to nerf weapons is to make enemies that have hard counters for them. the game would be healthiest to be balanced this way because then in game canon events like scientists making a breakthrough in technology can hard counter the hard counter and it would be cool.
Is that the only Magic Card meme you've seen? My first one was "a million jumpy [sons out of wedlock]" concerning hunters. I've never played Magic but these cards are great. (I know they're fake)
The pay to win accusations are/were so stupid because 1..The paying aspect is literally OPTIONAL 2. The gear in the store isn't even good enough to make you unstoppable
We do know what eagle one looks like. If we ever saw her she would be a scanned mo-cap of her voice actor (who we've seen) just like John Helldiver and everyone else with a face
You forgot to mention that the arrowhead company is also an in universe company. They are the ones that made the (i cant spell it but its canon as it’s mentioned in both games) “warp” drives that enable FTL travel

I still remember a bug sympathizer video about how those missions are so sad because they're destroying the tower so they can survive but all i could think was "stupid bugs are trying to prevent SE from upgrading them".
1:01:30
Automaton:"You will die for some kids"
Helldiver: "Someone will"
Ah, Yes... study music
🔥🔥🔥
My favorite note was Yuri Lowenthal's "AaAaAuUuUGGHH!"
Your finally back to Super earth soldier, now get back to liberating those bots, bugs and squids, Nikos!
Just so you know... PvE stands for "Player vs Environment", not "Player versus Everything" as you seem to be assuming.
Player vs Everything is pretty accurate in most cases tbh
I thought it stood for Player VS Entity
Ackshually its player vs embryo
Yoi can no longer visit meridia, gravity fluctuations. Those damn illuminate
...dear neptune...
With Eagle Sweat, I have now become master of my domain.
I expect this to be an ever revolving avalanche since the lore of the game is continuing even as you read this text
yeah this iceberg will be out of date come next year 😂
Came here from seeing your Reddit post. This will be a good video
A situation where we have to defend mars as the final fortress world before earth would be awsome
14:35 sony actually started to unblock certain regions recently. what used to be ca. 177 blocked countries are now "only" 130. so we might see more unblocked in the (hopefully near) future
amazing video man, enjoyed every second, thank you.
Dont forget that every mission you play on HD2 (maybe HD1 idk) is canon to the story. Every objective completed and failed, every teamkill and citizen saved, every planet liberated and lost actually happens in Helldivers lore and continues developing the story as we play.
Also, the joke about the forklift and shovel is pretty simple. Fans have been begging to fulfill their Death Korps of Krieg fantasies with a shovel melee weapon. When this was denied, they turned to the forklift, which can found across various planets. The fanbase yearns to drive a forklift for some reason. The video simply combined the shovel and forklift demands into one big blue ball.
FORKLIFT CERTIFICATION!!
I experienced first hand the first shrieker sightings way back when, it was so cool feeling like you don't know what you might end up fighting one day, it was the same for factory striders iirc(it was dreadful)
Automatons churn human bodies for bio fuel, just like humans churning terminids for E-710.
Also on I think super helldive, you'd be facing automaton fortress that when destroyed will have you transport an automaton head back to extraction. It yields some samples but I can't help but to consider about the automatons built on human brains theory
The Silhouette ships are Automaton ships. You can see them fighting and firing at super destroyers with that iconic red laser weaponry.
I’m not sure if someone in the comments mentioned it but around June when the bots arrived in force, the major order briefing mentions that preceding all the battles from that point were just ‘mere special military operations’ in reference to a recent military conflict.
It may just be a part of your level 7 archive clumped with the allegories, but I think it drives the satire home for me.
Level 112 here! The pink question mark happens a TON. My favorite is when there are two question marks attached to you, one on each shoulder.
on the subject of Pelican 1 at 10:22 i would argue it's closer to that of Skyranger from Xcom 2
Personal notes as a historian of the game (creator of HOWL project which is a very expansive documentation of the war down to the minutes)
5:54 “three battles for malevelon creek” it was 4,3 liberation campaigns and 1 defense campaign but I digress
6:15 funnily enough the record for longest campaign is actually the 2nd Battle of Clasa which is still ongoing at 19 weeks and 5 days as of this message
10:55 random extra tidbit but the Emancipator or “AC Mech” was unlocked during the Varylia 5 MO
14:35 I forgot how recent but some territories were removed from the region lock (I believe 33)
16:23 (07:13pm UTC 2nd June 2024) for anyone who cares this is the exact date of it being turn into a “blackhole” its a wormhole as confirmed by the game lore recently lmao
16:42 so about that lmao, warp links all got removed and the planet is no longer visitable as of this comment although may change as the plot develops
18:34 okay, just for the record because this is a personal pet peeve of mine but there are very few actually named operations. The vast majority of major orders actually go unnamed with community names and this is one of them.
22:58 okay so funny story here. Compare the sector outlines from the video to the sector outlines we actually have. In all likely hood they are using a map in the visuals that was pre-release and never corrected it
25:21 I’m more of a light-hearted squid sympathizer myself but yea its fun stuff
26:04 has to do with the melee penetration and the range increase if I recall correctly, every enemy in the is possible to melee to death with it.
30:25 using a special zigzag movement its possible to trick the leading of the traitor barrage shots to run forever, made even easier if shield backpack is used
34:05 Theres some murky issues with quoting stats from the game. The way the game handles the recording of stats doesnt work well (for examples look at death count on Rirga Bay and the overall stats of Tien Kwan). Generally speaking any planet fought on before the Reclamation has incomplete stats. There is also leftover dev (and/or hacker) testing stats on a decent amount of planets. Rirga Bay there’s no known explanation for though. It’s cool to quote the stats in game but do keep this in mind.
34:39 I should stop nitpicking on the phrasing but the gloom technically appeared between Socorro III and Enuliale. To this day Socorro actually still has the lowest possible level of gloom despite being under SE control for a long while. From (09:38am UTC 6th Aug 2024) to (03:04pm UTC 27th Aug 2024) the gloom rapidly expanded to take over 14* systems not 13. 15 if we want to count Socorro which is meh
35:29 personally I gotta give a shoutout to helldiverscompanion its a great website with relatively accurate estimation models and the devs are always working on updating it to include new features and stay updated with the game
37:00 *thousand yard stare* the Acamar IV incident of the 12th of Nov 2024, 5 bug defenses at once. Also notably theres a joke about how whenever Acamar had a surrounding planet liberated it would have a liberation campaign open briefly and it was possible to start new missions. Jokingly dubbed the zoo tours of Acamar (which if memory serves did get a mention in a dispatch after it fell) This also applies to gloom worlds in liberation campaigns opening but theirs an api effect to prevent people from jumping to fully gloomed systems. People already on those worlds should be able to theoretically start new missions if any remain though.
41:01 Theres actually ones of basically all the automaton units and some of the squid ones floating around now
43:24 is a really long story but those images were more or less faked. Its a very high quality fake but there was zero api data to back it up (nothing can show up on the multiplayer wide map without having a corresponding data result in the api as the map reads from the api to display stuff) so it wasn’t generated legitimately even if it did happen in-game.
47:24 oh god people mistaking weapon shots and the ricochet for the squids. Theres also a spike planet on one biome type that can cause “blue lasers” to appear when a large entity interacts with it
52:47 They are low poly poorly rendered super destroyer models lmao
54:26 Outpost 32 is confirmed to not even be a possible planet name to generate in hd1’s game files. Its caused a lot of grief but there is no actual solid *confirmed* evidence of the reddit posts talking about Outpost 32 being factual. It’s a psyop folks lmao. Its a poster that for whatever reason exists in the game but has no actual tangible lore attached to it besides fan-made lore (other then the poster)
1:07:34 Mars is not an actual world on the “map” as we know it and as such isn’t possible for us to fight on a wider scale beyond the tutorial unless changes are made to the current game state.
1:11:03 Well as I mentioned earlier its Dev or Hacker related stats and for whatever reason the Devs have never bothered to correct stats from things like these.
1:14:54 its a model rendering thing, often happens when theres issues with game files. Revalidating game files usually helps (if on steam)
Well ending comments, theres a lot of memes that go unmentioned, “29” personally being the saddest thing I that I didnt see. It’s a running joke in the hd2 discord server to reply to any number question with 29. It’s a joke that writes itself. Also theres like holy shit a lot of cursed documentation related tidbits I could talk about but this probably isn’t the place. HD2 is truly an expansive game and I love it so much. Hopefully all this gives some more context.
It's amazing how fans have created their own faction and Batallions
holy shit i'm 5 min in and this is such an amazing video already, love the pace, tone, vibe instant sub :D cheers for the insane content super citizen!
Thanks for the sub, and glad you like it!
Ah yes.. the secrets of super earth right in front of my eyes. This is in the edge of treason my fellow helldivers
Calypso is the Helldivers version of Fallujah
Sir, another deep dive/ice burg video has hit the fandom
The community sitting down to watch it anyways:
12:16 Each Helldiver above 4 would either require another Super Destroyer or they share one, which reduces maximum stratagem throughput.
Also, can you imagine the increase in friendly fire if more than 4 Helldivers are in one spot, lol?
38:14 I do have to give a shout out to a really simple mod that replaces the jump music with Halo Jump from BF3.
Thanks for your service Helldiver, now face the wall.
Everytime I watch an iceberg video I can't help but think of patchy the pirate finding the lost episode of spongebob.
"MALEVELON WAS AN INSIDE JOB"
BRO WHAAAAAT
i'm ded.
I joined during the height of the Malevelon Creek event and I wear the commemorative cape with the utmost pride.
Good news on the whole region-locking thing: the game has been unblocked in 40 countries. Fixing that whole debacle seems to still be a priority for Arrowhead - they've got a cape with the review bomb graph on it ready to go when the rest of the countries are unblocked, and Pilestedt has confirmed they're still working with Sony to get the rest of them unblocked.
I remember the blue lasers people claim to see when in reality it was a plasma bolt from a weapon we own just travelling across the battlefield
7:34 that transition is 👌
the black fluid from the Illuminate could also have been some kind of strategy to plot a return after being defeated. There is enough reason to expect Super Earth not to be able to withstand the thrill of using it some day in a last ditch effort (as they did on Meridia) which would then not create a black hole as we see it but rather a way to enter the galaxy from their save haven, which is as of now pretty much imminent with the black hole growing in the last weeks and currently beeing completely vanished with a Spacetime Fluctuation Indicator showing in the Map screen
Im warhammer 40k fan & that universe is wicked & its so much im still learning about it
do i smell treason?!?!
@@art3mis37 nope
@@kidink-_3782 I DO SMELL TREASON
Bro the bushwhacker slaps against bugs. It stops charging warriors and stalkers in their tracks. In fact you can wing a charging stalker, walk up into its face and one tap it. The reload is pretty fast too. I recommend yall try it out. I’ve run it with carbines, shotguns, and the crossbow and it was great with all of them
Infested spore divers would be a cool enemy type for the terminids
This has made me want to play Helldivers again. I haven’t played since we won the Creek.
I don’t know if I’m ready, or if the PTSD of Space Vietnam is still too much.
Helldivers are just the ingame paratrooper. Fun fact, paratroopers have a 20% survival rate for airborne operations. So its fairly accurate as an airborne simulation
One thing I've never seen mentioned online or in these iceburgs is the 'fence smashing' references in the game. Several of the engineer branded armours have references in their description to how effective they are for smashing fences etc. I've not been able to find any explanation for this and assumed it was an inside joke from the first game or something. Anyone else have any info?
All I know is that it's a long standing tradition on Hellmire(May it see liberty again) for as long as I can remember.
I haven't noticed that myself, it is probably some sort of inside joke, but we may never know
38:03 A correction for the Tekken meme for very few of those who might be interested. This is the input of Electric Wind God Fist (or EWGF), a very powerful and arguably the best move in Tekken that evades attacks, completely safe and if you land gives you a full combo resulting in massive damage. Although it requires good execution since last 2 buttons (down-forward and triangle) need to be pressed at exactly the same frame
Give this man a medal for diving deeper into it for us
When the 4th faction comes, Super Revelations will be upon us, and it will be a fight between Yoshida and Jorjani's Instrumentalities.
The shovel could be an aster egg from Warhammer 40k where there are a militia of soldiers from the Deathworld of Kriege that use shovels as melee weapons
Dude what? The double barrel one shot heavy bots when i found it, saved me too
Happy to see some double barrel appreciators here
Great vid ! Hope you dont disapear for you'r... questionnable theories on super heaths motivations
Justice for pragg snarbo !
as a newer helldivers 2 player this video is mad useful
1:15:10 I saw Someone's Guard dog as a pink question mark the other day, I see it every couple of matches. On lower end devices with graphics settings that it can barley handle the pink textures happens a lot.
1:11:20 the casualtys are from helldivers who managed to get killed in training via dropping a resupply pod on there head or something. And the dead bugs are from the bugs that we kill during training. As for the dead squids and bots. My best guess was some private altered version of the training map for testing new enemies or something
33:55 You are forgetting the connectivity issues throughout the lifetime of the malevelon creek battle period. MANY divers deaths were unreported. It was to the point that the server was completely unplayable at times and only a handful of ships were in the sky to represent online players. It is a guarantee that malevelon had more losses due to the starting player count of the game exceeding all others thus far and the addition of round the clock players before the PSN region ban.
I got 150 hours in the game and never seen the Eagle Sweat ad before damn
LONG NIKOS VIDEO WOOOOOOO
I think now calypso had the greatest death toll, and it was over a rather short period of time
It has the highest for the shortest amount of time, but some of the bug worlds are even more brutal with far more deaths
@Nikos. Fun fact, the region locking has been removed as of literally a week ago. They are waiting for the big announcement probably for the anniversary of the game in a week.
do you have a source for this? If so this is awesome news
@@Nikos. I am a member of Claysthetics and watch him regularly, and he showed us the changes that steam always reports when devs upload something to their games, and it showed all the restrictions being removed
super credit pickups are worth dying over. each one is basically a penny off the next warbond.
w vid❤ thanks for making this iceberg
14:10 some good news on this subject, they recently rescinded the ban on some countries!
the best way to nerf weapons is to make enemies that have hard counters for them. the game would be healthiest to be balanced this way because then in game canon events like scientists making a breakthrough in technology can hard counter the hard counter and it would be cool.
Is that the only Magic Card meme you've seen? My first one was "a million jumpy [sons out of wedlock]" concerning hunters.
I've never played Magic but these cards are great. (I know they're fake)
that sounds funny, never saw the other cards!
Democracy protects!
Oh wait, wrong lore.... Or is it?

"Players going nuts over JPEGs"
Mate, every time a new concept ship gets announced in Star Citizen...
The reason why arrowhead is obsessed with shovels is quite obvious really, they want helldivers to be like soldier tf2
The pay to win accusations are/were so stupid because
1..The paying aspect is literally OPTIONAL
2. The gear in the store isn't even good enough to make you unstoppable
13:43 Love that bf1 they shall not pass theme
There is some un-democratic activity in this video…
Your Democracy officer will be in touch with you shortly
We do know what eagle one looks like. If we ever saw her she would be a scanned mo-cap of her voice actor (who we've seen) just like John Helldiver and everyone else with a face
You forgot to mention that the arrowhead company is also an in universe company. They are the ones that made the (i cant spell it but its canon as it’s mentioned in both games) “warp” drives that enable FTL travel
I wish the starship troopers book was more influential. That book has a lot of good ideas and is wayyy better than the movie
