I hope people realise what a fucking rarity it is for a CEO to play his own games
lol thats how you know the fun factor is there why the hell else would the fuckin CEO be playing a game lmao
@@keefert0n Uh? because he likes playing games? you're not allowed to play video games because you're a CEO? lol
@@beardedlonewolf7695woosh
No doubt I mean he did say that he hadn't played in ages, might have felt fresh for him again.
@@beardedlonewolf7695 do you see the CEO of Microsoft playing games? No, you don't. CEOs playing their own games are pretty rare
imagine being that one random who joined a group consisting of Drewski and 2 devs
Fr
That would be Legendary Rando Lore I'd write a novel about fighting side by side with Drew and 2 devs.
And 2 of the highest level devs nonetheless, 1 being the literal CEO
Your mission is to escort the CEO and his second in command onto the surface for a secret meeting with the galaxies most notorious UA-camr. SWALLOWS hard and says: I'll do my part Sir! 😂😂😂😂
Protect the president type mission
11:22 hearing a ceo of a Swedish company say “skedaddle” is hilarious
It sounded like he lost 1 hp trying to say it
Vilken legend
🤣🤣🤣
Tactical terminology
28:40 "leg it! leg it! leg it!"
"oh, leg it?"
"...run!"
"ohhhhhh"
That's a VERY good sign, developers let alone CEO that play their own game after launch have a better understanding of how to improve it, what to fix and inspiration on what's the best direction for it in the future.
It's also a proof that they're one of us.
@@Aki-kh2qe-StreetKidZZZyeah. I mean it also prove that they care about their game. They want to play a good game and they made it themselves. They're not just making the game and going to the next one like a product that comes out every year or so.
And they’re even taking ideas from the community
Riot games wants a word with you
Somehow this comment goes against their design choices. He wiped on Lv6, but preach to us how we should play the game. DRG, MH, FF16 these Devs are passionate and know how to play their game.
Seeing a CEO of a game dev company enjoy playing the game he created is so rare
and w/ the playerbase
He is like the Elon Musk of the video game world. Minus the weird things Elon says
Just because you don't know of any does not mean it's rare :D They are people too, they play games with people they know
@@meejmuas8686ironically I believe Elon worked at a game company for a short bit, NOT SURE AT ALL THO, I saw this once when I had googled jobs he’d had
@@meejmuas8686minus the fact that Elon destroys all companies he buys out
To regular viewers, it’s gameplay
*To Joel, it’s enemy intel*
DON'T LET THEM WIN!
IF YOU MUST POST CONFIDENTIAL MATERIALS, DO SO TO WHERE IT IS OUT OF DATE TO THE ENEMY!
DON'T LET LIBERTY DIE!
DON'T LET HIM WIN!
Rofl, had to read this twice!@@jacobridgeway2849
@@jacobridgeway2849 HE WILL NOT DIVIDE US!!!!!
LMAO best comment
That is actually funny. I did NOT see that part coming.
I was chillin in the warframe discord and one of the devs popped in and asked if i needed help, we are now friends. Communities like this should be the future pc gaming
The Warframe devs are based aswell
The fact that the CEO plays his own game is enough to show how good Arrowhead is.
i mean who wouldn't want to especially at a successful rate, I'd take pride in my work if i developed a game and play normally it as everyone else does.
@@mickeymouze5 even with good games this type of interacting with the community hasnt been seen in awhile.
@@barefootbreezy6983 thats true there aren't many like that but likewise devs playing and communication their own games shows that they listen and might take things to consideration not all but yea.
Dunno man, preaching about how we are supposed to play the game and nerfing every fun weapon, but then wiping on a Lv 6 Mission, is kinda wild.
DeepRockGalactic Devs destroy their own game, same as most Devs who are passionate, yk FF16, DmC, Monster Hunter, etc.
The fact that one of their characters is named "NeverShift McDouche" is amazing.
That's the CEO I'm pretty sure lmao
@@GibbinswedLOL I love it!
Fluffy flesh walls lol
@@user.4049Well, it only says wall, but that is close lol
As a car enthusiast I can only hope the CEO is also a car enthusiast with a name like that which would make is more hilarious. Lol
What the CEO is describing is an "immersive sim". Gameplay that games naturally out of complex systems that all work together, rather than things being strictly scripted. Super difficult to get right, but the emergent gameplay that it creates is something special.
Linda like Monster Hunter World tried to make living ecosystems?
Couldn't have put it better myself
Breath of the Wild's construction system
The game has problems, let no one say otherwise. That said? I haven't had so much fun in years
@@dwrdwlsn5facts getting randomly blown up while hiding and in prone but I can't stay mad at it
i loved the CEO said he played the game to feel how the comunity and players are feeling. Thats so rare, what a legend
The fire tornado foreshadowing, hilarious
ha. ha.
The devs can't get anymore praise. Actually engaging with the game and the community to see how their decisions are Actually affecting gameplay
The AI mentioned is just as amazing as Drewski describes. For example, if you call down a sentry on top of a bot Tank on the view hatch, the tank will steer off into nowhere and crash into a wall as it cannot "see". It is actually using vision for navigation
As long as they revert the nerf partially i agree
@@You_Ate_My_Soapwhat nerf exactly?
@@rod99ttett90 Hes crying about the railgun nerf
@@You_Ate_My_Soap
u mean the railgun safe mode nerf?
please get gud and start to use unsafe mode.
I enjoyed listening when the CEO started talking about the game.
Grandma!! Become a helldiver!
I appreciated both game talk and real human conversation about inspirations for the game they created ❤
Grandma is an honorary Helldiver
This is one of the reasons I love this game so much. The fact the CEO is playing their own game in itself is almost never done, those things are incredibly rare, but for the CEO to invite a content creator to play with them and still be willing to talk about some of their future plans for the game is absolutely amazing to me. Love the dev teams for Helldivers 2.
7:25 Reminds me of one of the stories told on the mikeburnfire channel where Zach discovered that very issue with his glove and an M249. He got permission to cut the index finger off of the glove for safety reasons. Others in Zach's unit noticed that he did that, thought it looked cool, and cut the fingers off of their gloves, pissing off their superior. Lots of great stories there from him and Mike.
Holy shit Mike and Zach mentioned in the wild
9:35 “I wish we had an assault rifle that also had a gas pressure regulator for fire rate” my brother in Christ you are the CEO, you hold that power 😂
He was talking about real life guns not the game 😂
Na dude, he's being held hostage by Joel
MG-43 from game has rate of fire regulation
Maybe hes teasing something
@@HawkeyeRywhat about the bar? The second third version I think it had full auto and a slow full auto
one thing I've noticed, atleast feel like I have noticed, that I love is the fact that bugs especially the smaller ones in a patrol will posture and try to scare you off instead of instantly charging. While the automatons don't, they detect you and start blasting because they aren't alive in the same way.
Might be projection though, I haven't researched it beyond just playing the game normally
Bots will also use *evoke a response* methods where they just fire randomly hoping you shoot back giving away your position
i noticed this too man, the hunters stand on hind legs and spread their wings as if they want you to keep it pushing lol
Bots will just stand there, menacingly! Just stand and stare. Stand. And. Stare.
@@tanakalightHoly shit.
@@tanakalight We called it Recon by Fire in the Marines.
I really like how these guys make amazing games like back in the magicka days and how amazing these people are and what baffles me is that the CEO himself plays his own game! That is basically unheard of! Amazing stuff right there and i truly hope they stay awesome!
I really hope the success of Helldivers 2 leads to a Magicka 3. Still one of the most creative and fun magic systems I've seen in a game.
Maybe.. although i believe the second Magicka was made and published by another game company so i dont know if they still have the rights to make them.. i could be mistaken though@@Somethingbloody
@@Ramon609 the other game studio that made Magika 2 might have just been hired to put together a sequel game using the original games assets and already coded gameplay systems in the same way other game studios are hired on to port games to different platforms
still, another Magika or Gauntlet game would be awesome, Arrowhead made all my favorite topdown games for a while, its a shame they stopped making those kind of games
thats some rare opportunity there to play with a CEO and lead dev wow
love how supportive these devs are of their community… the fact that they bragged about the “stratagem hero” game mode being ported into a webpage, 99.99% of developers or publishers would want to pursue legal action or take it down
FRFR X999999 prayage not striked down 🙏
Yes those devs are a real gem:
"man watching u all cry, amuses me so much"
"I think once the dust settles, the parts of the community that enjoyed dev interaction up to this point might be in for some disapointing times"
"And I am out of here, git gud, play easierst if you want to win"
@@PicardOrion That was a single rouge developer that was immediately reprimanded for the comments he made. The CEO made comments about how his messages were unsupported by staff and that he did not represent the majority of the dev team.
regardless dude was based, he knows how the game works git gud or play easierst if you want to win@@Jack-rq7ll
crazy! just read this as they spoke about it! love those youtube moments lol
"A sound system that works"
Explains why bug holes start sending scouts when running by instead of crouching...among other things. Of course those with a Swedish military background could deliver an experience like this with those crisp reloading animations, beefy gunfire sounds and being able to fire off your last round because the mag's not there! Something I don't think third person shooters do all that often or at all. Arrowheads's one Hell of a team
That "last bullet in without the magazine" thing blew my mind when i experienced it. At first i didn't realize
@@_d-- Tripped me out during bug ambushes seeing your character run without a mag in, and the old favorite, getting attacked just before you pulled the charging handle of the rifle/machine gun. They didn't miss a step with the "small" things that could go wrong aside from attacking an objective with only one round left for the Autocannon...
I wish they had asked about reloads. They seem to have a few steps to complete instead of just finishing the animation. I swear a lot of times my reload gets interrupted all I missed I was pulling back the charging handle, so it only takes a tiny animation to complete
@jewunit113 every mag fed weapon seems to have at least four distinct states to the reload animation.
Remove old mag.
No mag, but round in chamber.
New mag, ready;
And new mag (empty. Need charge).
As soon as the old mag is out, even if you havent thrown it away yet, the weapon is now "emlty" unless you hsve a round in the chamber.
As soon as the new mag is in, the weapon is "reloaded", but needs to be charged if run fully dry. Some weapons need to be charged on a new mag even if you had a round in the chamber.
The only other game I have seen with a loading animation sequence this nuanced was SOCOM US Navy SEALs, which was developed in partnership with the US DOD.
The sound is pretty mediocre. Guns don't sound beefy at all, what are you talking about?
this is every gamers dream. To talk to the people who made the game they are playing *as they are playing it.*
Wow!!! This one looked hard!!! Glad you all are out of there!!!
Hi Shirley!! :D
hope you're great grandma!
Yes!!

Hope you have a good day Grandma!
“Right torso is open” that man plays/played mech warrior.

I mean the Mechs they introduced literally just look like a hodgepodge of components from different BattleMechs combined in to one.
I read that the EXACT moment he said this
I love how genuine and down to earth these guys are. They’re game devs that love playing games not just making them. It’s long overdue coming from execs from companies
It's so awesome that a dev and even the CEO played with you. The boys and I played so, so much of the first helldivers and to see them make this game is insane and for the devs/CEO actually play the game is so cool
As a former US Army armorer, I think I know what happened to the M240.
The M240 has a compound drive spring. Multiple springs coiled up into a single spring. The tension of this spring is part of what regulates the fire rate, infantry configurations of the m240 have a lower max rate of fire than vehicle configurations and especially multi-mount configurations like in an anti-air battery.
If the story hadn't ended with "and then the guide rod snapped" I would have assumed that his gun had got a vehicle or aircraft drive spring installed on a refit. Since the drive rod snapped, what I think happened is that one of the component springs of the compound drive spring failed, causing rhe coil to provide less resistance, causing the gun to briefly fire faster before the mechanical failure.
More likely his gas regulator was set to the higher rpm, wasn't cleaned and continued to foul creating a rate the spring couldn't compensate for which shatrered the rod. Especially likely if he was using BFA+blanks
@@olliehughes6774 Wouldn't that restrict the flow more?
cool "The More You Know.gif"
Interesting bit of knowledge
Any fun story to share armorer?
The fact the the devs/ceo have such a blast/laughing playing the game is a really good sign
True. Also, the fact that the creators of the game could not beat a difficulty 6 bug mission is a bad sign.
Do you hate an overwhelming challange? I feel like alot of the community is upset that its hard af to play the hardest modes.. but then again they should probably not lock upgrades behind difficulties that are to challenging for the devs@@JR-kv6ez
@@JR-kv6ezthey probably had a talk with Joel 😂
@@JR-kv6ezI think it’s a good sign. I like the philosophy that 1 is easy and 9 is actually impossible so that there’s a true scale to measure your ability against. As long as there’s something harder that you cannot beat, then you avoid power creep if you get what I mean
@@tobysharples111 I respect your point of view. I just don't like what you're describing. But that's also why I have stopped playing for now, though I will remain in the loop in case the game shifts more toward what I enjoy.
hearing a ceo and dev laugh and have fun with their own game with no cameras on regular mics, that needs to be a requirement
I'm glad Johan still does interviews in game. Loved watching him play magicka back in the day, enjoyed this
Former M240 Bravo gunner and GWOT veteran here. The reason why the M240 was shooting 1000 rpm is because the gas regulator was set to 3. Standard operating procedure for the M240B in the US Army is setting it to 2, which is more like 600 rpm. The weapon was put reassembled without paying attention to the gas regulator from the sound of it. More maybe Swedes love their blicka going fast.

Upvote this list of takeaways and feel free to add to it, hopefully this helps some other players.
1. Bugs can see and hear, but some variants like the Stalker can "smell" you and will find you no matter what
2. Orbital Gas Strikes have a large area of effect and can be used to destroy eggs
3. They would like to add a first person drop in view for the hellpod
4. If bots scramble your strategem you can check the left hand of the screen to see what you are going to throw
5. You can toss grenades back at bots
6. The "hearing" mechanic used in the game makes sprinting much louder to the enemies as opposed to crawling or crouching
7. Explosions and gunfire attract enemies
8. If you break line of sight of bots for 4 seconds they will start to search in the area you were last seen. Great way to displace and break contact using smoke or spores
thanks for this dude but you forgot one. Its here at the first part 1:50 and the devs said, right after you land and immediately spawn your equipment, it attracts the patrols to search the area
Explains why Hunters and Stalkers follow you till the end of the map, their role in the hive actually fits with their name not just functionally but biologically as well
Plus using smokes or spores against bots, bec ofc they use scanners to detect and they actually think like robots, calculations, estimations and logic etc.
8a. Bugs and bots will search around for 30 seconds and then will do the following: Bugs will spread out into a search pattern while bots will shoot at your last known location despite not actually knowing where you are.
9. Hellpod drops after the first attract patrols as mentioned by @maliketh2951
10. Certain enemies are killed more easily by shooting off a leg rather than body shots, so experiment. (Ex.: charger & chainsaw [head is best for chainsaw but it is VERY small])
I didn't really get the look to the left hand side part

I’ve played about 40~ hours of this game so far and all i gotta say is, the physics and gameplay is top tear and so realistic that it drags you in so hard. I love it
This video is so much fun to watch! All the knowledge being dropped here is such a gift. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
My favourite community designation is the "Eye of Sauron" for the detector tower, everyone I have dived with has called it that.
It literally looks like the Eye of Sauron and behaves in a similar manner.
Its a detector tower, but its the Eye of Sauron.
That was the first thing that came to mind when I first saw the towers, and there couldn't be a better nickname for them. lol
Having seen one for the first time yesterday, I called it that purely out of instinct 😂
literally everyone from my friend group and beyond have naturally called it the eye of sauron
my group calls it the "all seeing eye"
As an infantry assaultman, when I first saw that you could have an A-Gunner for your rockets,missile launchers and auto cannon plus back blast actually does damage to your team and you I was kinda blown away. I personally haven't seen those mechanics be utilized in games I've played. That attention to detail really brings something special to the gameplay.
A-gunner? like an auxiliary gunner?

I just love this game, the community, and after years, pretty much since gta online became boring, this is finally a game where i hop on again as soon as im home from work. So much fun! Seeing the CEO playing it too, thats a really good sign!
The 360 dive at 12:55 was sick
This is how ceo interviews should always go. Actually using the product with them instead of just a q and a

I'm so happy that a studio like Arrowhead has made such a successful and amazing game that's not all led by greed like other companies.
tell them to have Sony to remove ps plus membership for solo players.👊💥

A very small detail that I have yet to see in other "games that I played by the way." Bullet casings will pile up on the ground instead of disappearing through the ground like magic. I really appreciate that level of detail when I'm swimming around the bullet casings from my own gun after shooting off and killing a patrol.
This is amazing. Listening to the devs having so much fun, laughing maniacally at failures and giving some really cool info on some of the behind the scenes stuff is excellent. Love it.
It's actually so nice to listen to shooter game devs have knowledge on how guns are supposed to work
Except when it comes to rail guns right?
One thing I especially appreciate is how the auto cannon has a toggle action just like the German Luger pistol and of one Switzerland’s antitank guns, that is something that isn’t seen in gun concepts in most shooters throughout video game history.
Its why korean manhwa does well with military shit because they also have mandatory service
@g00gleisgayerthanaids56 well their concept on a rail gun is most accurate I'd say seeing as having a hand held shoulder fired version would need to be charged before firing instead of it constantly be ready to fire the second you switch the safety off
Yeah, like shotgun’s actually having roughly the effective range they have IRL instead of the ridiculously short range they have in most games.
This is honestly one of the most wholesome honest gaming marketing strategems out!
These guys and Larian Studios are hands down the best gaming CEOs at the moment
How to be a successful gaming studio:
Step 1: be Swedish
Pretty sure Larian Studios is Belgian
Ghost Ship Games too
UA-cam hasn’t been the same since like 2019… you remind me of simple times. It’s hard to explain but your content is simple in a great way. subbed.
10:36 I love how this game handle the smaller details like reloading the gun isnt just a timer, if you cancle your reload mid way you still have to pull the handle if you fire all rounds
I'm not sure I've ever watched Devs play a game with creators in this amount of detail or just all around fun. They genuinely love their game and love playing it too!
Warframe devs play their game regularly, altough i'm not so sure about interacting with players in game since pretty much nobody uses voice chat in WF
It seems like they playtested the crap out of this game likely because it was constant fun
The care and attention they put into every small aspect of the game really shows. It’s a great game, and I bet this genre is going to blow up like battle royal games on the back on HD2s success, which may be unfortunate for HD2 in the long run, but this game will certainly be one of the legendary co-op games of all time. It’s truly great, and has incredible potential to get even better- they just need to keep fixing and refining the stability issues, but for a non competitive game I can see how that’s not at the top of the list.
The genre is going to blow up? The co-op horde shooter, a genre that has been around for decades? Deep Rock, DarkTide/Vermintide, Left 4 Dead/Back 4 Blood? That genre?
The totally new and never before seen co-op horde shooter genre, yes of course....
The last biggest one was lf4 and the other games you mentioned barely scratched 50k, not to downplay those games since they're great but nowhere near what HD2 achieved, DGS is amazing and has a relatively big player base still of 30k while games like darktide and vermintide barely maintain 5k at least that's what steamchart show so in a way the guy is right, its been awhile since a genre like this blew up.@@LoganChristianson
The First thing in my mind when i see Helldivers 2 gameplay is... "Wait, isn't this is just Scaled-down EDF?"
@@LoganChristiansonyep.
If you compare all of more or less good co-op horde shooters with shitload of copy/past survival games (80% of which will not leave early access) or time periods of MOBA hype, online TCG hype, battle royale hype, vampire survivors hype etc. it turns out that the coop hodre shooters genre is very niche and unpopular.
Until Helldivers 2. And i geniunly believe, that after HD2 more companies will make ther own version.
God, even deep rock galactic (which I think is a brilliant game), less popular than survivors version.of this game.
Very cool that you got to have that experience with them. They seem like cool people who just want to make a great badass game. They got my support 100% as long as the product stays priority #1 :) amazing game!!
Got this game about a day ago or so and have to say it is a great game! Glad to see how the creators of this game are passionate enough to make something they enjoy themselves and are proud of
I just realized Arrowhead is the same studio that made Magicka. It now makes so much sense why there is such a chaotic fun soul to Helldivers. I'm glad they are having such a successful game with HD2.
Stratagem directional input is a way of casting magic in magica's early version
wait, they MADE magicka? only 1 or 2 as well?
Only 1 afaik. The IP was sadly part of the publishing contract and Paradox dropped them as developers right after it came out. That's why they had to invent a new IP. Still turned out well, I guess.
Whichever dev said all automaton infantry can call in dropships was correct. The nuance to it is that the single sword guy will always be the first bot to attempt to fire a flare. After he dies, another will attempt to fire a flare. This will keep happening until either all the infantry bots are dead or one of them gets the flare off.
I'm fairly certain that i've stumbled across several devs in these random lobbies. I just get a feeling as I watch them play.
This game is incredible.
We had too in our service the FN Mag [m240] that had that option.
The MAG fires fully automatic only and the 3 position gas selector allows for a rate of fire between 650 and 1.000 rounds per minute.
So you’re saying you, the CEO, and head of product testing are teaming up to serve Democracy and fight against Joel?
FOR DEMOCRACY AND FREEDOM
Shows just how much power Joel has. 🧐
Joel truly is against the world.
Joel is the RoboBug lord. He is the final boss
That’s crazy!
Glad the CEO is on our side!
13:50 “the community will change names to things”
Indeed. I never called Hunters “Hunters”, I’ve always called them Flankers because they have the game mechanic to flank around you while you focus on one of them in a group. It’s a great mechanic that adds an extra layer of detail and challenges.
My current list for bugs:
Scavengers: Roaches
Hunters: Flankers
Brood Commander: Queen
Little jumping bugs: Crickets
My list for Atomatons:
Fucker 1
Fucker 2
Flare fucker
Big fucker
This fucker
That fucker
Missile fucker
AT-AT
Or I’ll just call them Clankers.
I like how everyone universally agrees that the Scout Strider is just an AT-ST. Also I love your naming convention for the bots, as it very closely mirrors mine when a whole circus of them are running me down. 💀
lol
I call the scavengers ankle biters. For the rest, I mostly call them what the devs named the enemies. Haven't really thought of nicknames despite dropping 127hrs into the game now.
There's that heavy automaton that I call "the Dreadnought" because it looks like an Imperial Dreadnought
I call the chargers the rhinos bc they look like rhinos lmfao
@@blackviper5093 you know what, you’re absolutely right, they do!
Helldiver 1 was my first game on the ps4 and it will always have a special place in my heart, it was so cool to see one of my favorite games blow up this hard and I couldn’t be more happy for the devs and for democracy of course
I love this game. I hope the devs keep up the good work. Epic footage by the way!
When one of the devs said he played yesterday a few games just to see how the community was enjoying the game. Spoke volumes as to why this game is successful.
I agree, it's a great attitude to have and helps keep in touch with the game and the community.
Man, as a Swede I’m constantly baffled of how many great games that’s been made by Swedish developer studios! Sweden might be a large country, but we’re not densely populated with about 10 million citizens! This studio comes from the Northern city of Luleå, which has a great technical college and university. They later moved down to the Swedish capital, Stockholm.
Skellefteå väl?
@@MrMaltaviusDe gick väl på Luleå Tekniska Högskola? Sen vet jag inte mycket mer. Kul att höra dem prata om Lumpen och KSP58. Undrar hur gamla dem är? Om det lirat Command & Conquer så är dem ju inte direkt purunga! Nästa i min åldersgrupp!😂
@@Hiznogood LTU has a campus in Skellefteå, and that's where they studied and started the game studio.
@@Hiznogood Johan är född -84 iaf. Vi gick på samma skola i Gällivare. Finns en planet i HD2 som heter Gaellivare. 😅 (och en New Kiruna)
Im french and realized recently that between Sharkmob, Embark and Arrowhead swedish devs are currently filling my playhours like no others 👏
Game devs that are actually involved in their game and enjoy their own work.
They've got the true heart of a gamer, as it should be.
Thanks for sharing.
I like the "WOOO" when they just dodge something or like barely make it to extract like at the end of the video. Really shows that they know what they are making and can enjoy it just like everyone else.
Even the chief of commander of super earth is fighting for our own democracy, SO WHY DONT YOU NOW!?
SIGN UP FOR LIBERTY AND FREEDOM!!
Wow. Operator Drewski diving into battle with the actual President of Super Earth. What a legend. For Democracy. 🇺🇸
FOR SUPER EARTHHHHHH
This is awesome, love to hear the background conversation as to the reasoning for some of the game's systems, and the dev/CEO having fun with their own game.
Question though, was this on the previous patch? You're exposing Charger leg armor without holding unsafe rail mode for the high charge %, just seemed like a surprise. Thank you!
I love the comradery in Helldivers, people online definitely helped me get started(every sample I've ever collected has been looted off my corpse though)
The fact that they had experience in the swedish military makes SO MUCH SENSE now lol. This was actually so fucking cool to hear, hope they come back and do another video with you :D
I'm not saying that all developers should have experience in the army buuuuuuuuut you have to admit if you're making a shooter, you could get at least some advice from a former military personnel. I mean DICE, that made battlefield should have thought about that, right?
I can't think of the last time, if ever, where I saw the CEO of a game studio playing their game like a normal person within the community. Truly refreshing.
Pilestedt is also responsible for some of the animations in the game.
Hes not just a CEO, he also actively works on the game.
Yea with how vocal he is even in his personal social page, game discord, or community. And in contrast to indie game that does it occasionally for marketing, being a CEO w/ how busy managing the studio is, that means a lot when Johan Pilestedt (CEO) literally took his own time instead of sending someone. that some transparency and trust to the game.
I love that the ceo is also on the frontlines for democracy
Havent played helldivers yet but love they are out shining all the main studios and corps, respect!
12:50 all the bot conscripts can still call for reinforcements still. i've seen the commissar, the jetpack one, and a normal soldier use the flare (even just today)
I wish the bugs had more time between calling for a breach, and one responding. By the time you see the orange smoke, it's too late to stop it, whereas with the bots, you can see the flare light up before it's shot up and can still stop it.
I suspect this is a bug that no one until now has realized it was so.
@@charlestwoo Been discussed since release day.
@@vedritmathias9193 Not even. I've seen the bots point the flare gun up, I kill them before they fire. There's NO flare in the air.
BOT DROP DETECTED
Like huh??!?!?!
Every small bot can call reinforcements and all small/medium bugs can call more breaches.
*Reads video title*
You Lucky Bastard!!!
😂😂
The giddy laughter when they accidentally kill a fellow helldiver is hilarious, you can tell the devs enjoy the chaos that ensues on dives.
This is gonna be one of the coolest interviews ever well done
Speaking of alternate community names, my friends call the bunker doors that require 2 people "friendship doors"
That's the only approved name for those doors. Use of any other name for them should be reported to your nearest morale officer.
my group of buddies always call them "LEGO Star Wars doors" because there are so many doors in those games that require both players to pull a lever at the same time
We call them buddy bunkers
Arrowhead deserves all its success going forward, it's so refreshing to see a CEO and dev team be so passionate about their game. I've had nothing short of an awesome time with Helldivers 2 and I can't wait to see where the game goes next.
That was awesome!! Thanks for the upload
I love the dynamic chaos that happens in this game. The moment at 30:11 had me rolling when the dropship flew up and got shot down and then exploded next to the base which caused it to blow up as well. It's awesome how crazy things can get.
I hope the devs read the comments on this video. I want them to know that this is hands down the best game I've played in years. Every part of it is amazing. The graphics, the gameplay, the lore, the aesthetic, progression, and especially the music is absolutely top notch. Thank you so much for making a great game.
When the CEO and Devs are badasses, love and know what they do it's only natural to get a masterpiece.
They along with a couple of other titles singlehandedly revived the modern gaming era before it completely got crushed.
Funny thing when hearing Patrik and Johan, i was like "Sounds swedish" I wasent aware Arrowhead Game Studios made Helldivers 2, which is swedish X)
There's a reason why Sweden in the center of the Super Earth logo!
@@Roxfox Oh, i havent even noticed as i dont currently play Helldivers 2 ^^, alot of fun to watch though
same, though i didnt pick up on it until after they said they were, but i can hear it now.
I can literally hear the "jaaa mÿcket bra!" xD
Why do they birth so many fun games? OG Swedish Dice was my childhood
@@Roxfoxthe box art theme is Blue and Yellow too, swedens flag
Hearing the laughter from the devs with all the hilarity and shenanigans of the game is amazing, it’s awesome to see they really made this game the way that they enjoy
a 7:27 i've actually heard about this happening from Zach Hazard on the campfire stories, and how he cut the trigger finger off his glove so that wouldn't happen. amazing that the Dev on this game say that it happened to him
Seeing the devs that made this game laugh like children and actually enjoying a game they created shows exactly why this game is so loved. They made a game that they would enjoy and have fun playing. Love these creators, keep up the good work!
My butt perked up when I saw you upload 😊 Thank you for filling me with joy OperatorDrewski
Pause
HUH?
Ayoo?
WAIT! WHAT?! I’ve got a NEW COMPLAINT!
bro?
I am literally loving every second of this game, other than the very rare bug of me clipping into a rock or falling through the map
Great insight man thanks for video
seeing an active CEO and Developers of a game makes it all the more amazing to play! To have the creators playing their own project with their community just shows how passionate they are about it!
This is just so insanely cool. Not only that you are doing like, extreme missions, but then also having sort of a casual talk with devs and CEO, interspersed with occasional team kills and the "Do you have the Hulk?" - "I have everything!" sort of panicked undertone. It's just such a good mix of things, and it pretty much sums up the Helldivers 2 experience. thank you for this vid! Also thank you to the whole Dev Team for connecting with the community. The insights in this video were amazing, and I never enjoyed spreading democracy more than in HD2!
At my age, that level of gameplay is so far beyond my abilities. Gratz to all of you who can do that. 👍
I LOVE the fact that the CEO plays his own game, and it sounds like he's loving it! That is insanely rare. This is the type of person that definitely should be the CEO for a video game company. He knows the craft.
The more I hear from the devs the more i enjoy hearing about them. Such a great game, such great devs.
Thank you Drew, for sharing. I am so excited that you got this opportunity!
It’s amazing seeing the devs actually enjoying there game and listening to the community and basing it off experiences that they have had, also would love to see them add some melee weapons or attachments like a bayonet
The first game had a few melee weapons. So it's definitely possible we'll see it sooner rather than later.
i want a melee mech
Wh40k imperial guard: FIXXED BAYONETTS!
@@chilliewhk I've played Helldivers as recently as today and it does not have any melee weapons, what are you on about? It's only on the bannerart for the game.
@@LethalOwlThey do have bayonets for some of the weapons, which is maybe what he was talking about?
This is the game of the year no doubt. And the CEO being so down to earth and has obviously put a lot of care and thought into the game. Congratulations on the beat game I’ve seen in a long time.
Dope video dude, really enjoyed it
These guys reminded the whole gaming industry how it’s done. Class act. 10/10.
I'd love to see them add Bug Tunnels. I think that would really add elements of terror to fighting the bugs
i would love to see a mission that just has players exploring a big cave with alot of tunnels and the objective is to eliminate a big enemy for example a queen ant like enemy. every time they clear a section, a team of A.I diggers dig a hole so that reinforcements can come and help. what do you think?
@@7HatimF16 That could be really cool! There could be specialty drop pods designed to dig down as well!
@@rynncarthis3739 something like deep rock galactic?
NOT THE VIET CONG TUNNELS
@@Tax_Collector01viet erminid tunnels*
Just hearing all this is amazing. Thanks for publishing this and thank them for the opportunity 🔥
Lol. I love CEOs like that. Am a developer for a space game that recently came out and i normally play it with the community and sometimes the boss joins randomly, adds random stuff and it makes the game real fun.
Let’s gooo more helldivers.
