![[CHECK PINNED COMMENT] How To Easily Beat EVERY Enemy | Helldivers 2 Weak Spots & Tips Guide](/img/n.gif)
Q: So what do you guys think of Helldivers 2 so far? What NEW Enemies, Vehicles, Weapons, etc. do you want them to add most?
I want the ability to get a vehicle or mech from POI in the map so that it might change the couse of battle
Not sure if you played the first one... but in that you could call one down... but i actually like your idea better... i never really used the mechs in the first one much... felt like it was to easy to kill your team mates with them@juliocarlosvelazquezenriqu8822
I think new enemy factions and new biomes for me personally. The game is awesome but definitely want more content, also more mission types.
As far as Warbonds, they are fine. Actually the Premium Warbond seems kinda lame verses the regular one that comes with base game. Haven't seen anything worth buying in the Superstore yet, just variations of stuff already available but with different skins.
I like the game, having a lot of fun, and after 50+ hours I was able to unlock every startagems and the paid warbond just by playing.
But the matchmaking/quickplay not working is starting to get really annoying.
Also there is some balance issues, sometimes the ennemies are stuck in a never ending loop of calling reinforcements , and it becomes impossible to finish or escape an engagement, even in the easier "hard" difficulty like 5, the battlefield become a lvl 7/8 difficulty with endless reinforcement.
Also several bugs sometimes prevent progress (like gaining zero xp at the end of missions) and there are still multiple crashes, at least 1 every 4 to 6 hours i'd say.
They have already released several patches, but from my experience it hasn't changed anything at all and the same problems still exist.
The way they carried out the latest servers maintenance is really bad too, no in-game message to warn, only the official Discord and one time they only warned 10 minutes before it started.
TANK
First live service model I've actually been ok with
Cuz it's not meant to be predatory, it's meant to be fun. The game is complete and completly fun as it is right now. The Live Service aspect of it will only serve to add more to the fun.
Live services are (unfortunately) usually created to print money and sell the most amount of microtransactions. In Helldivers you don't need to pay a single extra dime to have the same progression as any other player and the store only sells essentially different skins of the armor you unlock in the free pass. Also, microtransactions literally mean microtransactions in this game, meaning that every skin is sold by somethinh between $2 to $4.
Deep Rock Galactic also has some live service stuff that is pretty much a free battle pass model where you just earn the stuff by playing the game and any content not unlocked just gets put in the random loot pools so there's no FOMO
We have to make sure we give them money (ironically in positive response to this so they know without a doubt this is the model we want)
Me too I was wondering if it’s because I usually don’t play these type of games or it’s really something special. I think it’s probably a bit of both
@@whiteshadow0122You can easily enough super credits for a full outfit from the store within a day of gameplay. It's worth saving them up incase that epic drip shows up. The later unlocked weapons and grenades in the standard pass are actually better than the "premium" ones. AP Liberator has medium pierce damage and is far superior to the explosive rifle!
This game has done so much for its player base I don't mind supporting them in the form of the superstore. It's obvious they're not a billion dollar company which makes me feel better about supporting them especially because this game is different and is absolutely amazing. 💯
Shockingly only 120 employees
I think everyone can spare £10/£15 extra to support them and get yourself some new gear too, as you say there a small company and the Devs have been working day and night to make this game even better with only around 100 employees, ive had about 5 updates since launch already and theyve said theres alot more to come 👊🏼🔥 super impressed with this game ill be supporting the whole way and hope they get the credit for it!
@@fullhallowichigo It's because Arrowhead are an indie dev and are super communicative with their community on Discord and Reddit. Heck, even their CEO jumps in to post comments in Reddit, now that's a rarity!
they made 30 million dollars in 2 weeks so far lol
@@jakeMTSU is it the result of an awesome concept and hard work? That's rhetorical.
I really wish in the future they implement "final stage war" mode where up to 24-36 helldivers dive into a location and fight off hordes and hordes of enemies.
If their code & servers could handle it. Also consider the amount of enemies that would spawn, the AI pathing and actions being processed, character models, SFX & FX, lighting & physics.
24-36 is an insane wish. 8-12 MIGHT be do-able. A whole Map with multiple ‘Hard-Points’, say 3-4 that you have to hold, reposition to & split Teams over would be interesting.
Like we have the Galaxy Map RN & we’re on the offensive so they look like their faction’s worlds would; but adding some inhabited human worlds that have call for reinforcements to repel an invasion.
It would be pretty cool I must admit.
Could you imagine all the explosions, friendly fire, and absolute chaos that would be?😂
I like the bases and cover the automaton's have, but other than showing up and wrecking the base with some bot drop counter attacks, its not often we use the bunkers and such back against them for defense. I'd like for us to be able to fortify more like that.
Honestly that would probably be way too many players and everyone would just die by friendly fire
That would be so awesome
Whether free or paid, I’m down for it. This is going to be my main game for 24’.
People cheesed that you "have to pay 20 bucks for premium" haven't played because you can unlock it with stuff you can earn through gameplay
They haven't even opened the game, it's 10 bucks for premium lmao.
Super citizens have a weapon others can't get the mp98 knight.
So you guys know they don’t have the super citizens machine gun it has an extremely high rate of fire. It is fun to use but goes empty as soon as you fire it so it’s not overpowered at all.
Y'all ready to vote this game, game of the year yet or need a little more time?👀
It's GOTY
Settle down it's only the second month.
Unequivocally, this is GOTY, it’s absolutely brilliant on SO many levels.
Couldn’t care less that it’s only mid February, nothing is going to beat this.
I make this bold prediction as a seasoned gamer by the way, there’s no “fan boy” stuff going on here.
THIS is the new Halo.
@@admiralcoffeemaker6310 is that ANTI-DEMOCRACY i see??!
@@admiralcoffeemaker6310considering what the game brings to the table+the fact that their microtransaction model is not predatory, but geared towards the „if you want you can, but dont have to” mentality makes this an almost sure GOTY/very strong contender.
More ways to spread That SWEET DEMOCRACY ACROSS THE GALAXY!!!
I just hope for an event where more than 4 players are in the field. Full blown battle against the bugs and their queen.
I second this, more players on the battlefield definitely would help battles with overwhelming enemies on higher difficulties like on the automaton front, 6 tanks and 7 hulks really, REALLY overwhelm you. More Manpower could solve that issue and give you a planetary battle vibe.
Agreed, got stomped out with a full group on hard mode. Probably nuts on the even higher difficulty.
Im not sure they can if this was PC then yes but on consoles your limited. Also the havoic that happens om screen might be too difficult for them. But yes i agree i really hope they do jave more tha 4 players and that i will be wrong. :))
This. Some cool underground lair we can raid as a 8 to 16 party would be fun
I honestly think 8-12 player 'Dungeons' would be sick. Huge objectives that is just straight up conflict.
I hope they can add customisation using colours and a social hub space station + 8 man / 16 man raids on a planet. That would be cool
Idk, 8 man sounds like pure chaos. But I can't wait for the boss assault missions!
@@mr.rabbit5642 nothing like 8 helldivers spreading managed democracy, liberty & freedom.
8-16 Helldivers would balance out the very difficult parts of a planet (if you go beyond difficulty 7), since the game basically spams you with hulks, tanks and other big bugs, more helldivers could be handy while also keeping it like it is, very difficult and stressful@@mr.rabbit5642
@@gundam4602i do my part.!
I just want weapon upgrades like in HD1
I wasn’t really a fan of permanenty ruining my starting pistol with the upgrades in the first game
I mean sure ... but there was always a Meta build for the guns ... I'd rather spend the $$$ to upgrade the Stratagems.
@@Nimoot you can already upgrade stratagems without having to spend cash tho
@@TherealBigblue22 Well it is optional.
@@Nimoot I tend to not follow the META.
There needs to be a
"Range" to practice in.
That would be a nice feature
Agree. Was thinking about that yesterday.
Yesterday I got about 100 super credits in an hour. Yesterday I bought the extra warbond with earned super credits. I then spent 5$ on their superstore because I like the game and the team.
My brothers in hell....Imagine they do a weapons experiment day which they give all divers a free exo-44
Then even in death i can still serve
Helldivers 2/Space Vietnam has been the best so far.
Enjoying it so far
SO let me say this as someone who has played for 40 hours the first week, the current premium warbond costs $10 USD or 1000 super credits. I earned 400 from the free warbond. The other 600 I got from missions. The amount you get from missions is very generous considering its a real world currency.
The devs have stated they want the game to be fair to the players.
I would love to see like an invasion event mode where big groups of players fight the enemy on a bigger map that needs to be captured and held for a certain amount of time.
Abilities on helmets and capes 👍
Love to see more depth to builds via armor kombinations
Harder missions do have the potential for more super credits. The map is larger with more points of interest. Trivial missions can have a couple to maybe five points of interest. Easy missions can have five to maybe close to ten. Medium seems to have a similar amount to easily. Challenging gave me little time to explore as the enemy's were troublesome. So I'm not sure, I haven't attempted harder difficulties. It seems like the size of the map dictates the max amount of points of interest. Each point of interest will have zero, ten or twenty super credits. I'd say the potential to earn super credits is fair.
I feel like you could literally farm the SCs rn if you had to. I would recommend lvl2 or 3. There's like 7 or more PoIs and the chance for SC is so big Im often getting 40-50 per run. Higher lvl has way bigger maps, but on way more challenging terrain I feel the PoIs are more spread out.
I saw 30 one time
@@mr.rabbit5642yeah be careful with farming, intentionally losing the missions will mean it takes 2 missions won to counter act how much we lost
As long as content updates are meaty and free, i will have absolutely no problem on buying things from the super store. However as you said, i hope they dont add stratagems to the superstore. I think its quite enough that boosters, armours and weapons are locked behind that system. Make players happy and theyll make you happy. Happy players are the most loyal audience.
In the age of inflation, 10 USD isn't really that much, also considering that you can earn super credit in game and in warbond progression, the actual cost of the warbod is in fact noticiblly less than the price tag we see. I am currently very satisfied with this business model.
If you keep talking to the man by the war table he brings up the cyborgs and the illuminate from the first game so the automatons are technically a new faction.
Probably just slang, since they refer to the terminids as bugs as well
It would make sense that they are a new faction, probably born from the cyborgs. In HD1 they supposedly conquered "Cyberstan" and took control of theur factories and facilities, and said that in a span of 5 years all of the cyborgs would be fully indoctrinated into the federation, and HD2 takes place way later. Plus cyborgs where more human-like, with machine parts in their bodies. Automatons look more like 100% robots.
Terminids are new too then, with this logic. New name doesnt mean new faction lmao
@@avalokiteshvara113 one of the crew members talks about the terminids and says that they are the same ones as the first war but just with extra years of evolution behind them. The characters on the ship litterally say all of this. I'm not making any of it up.
The fact that people have been unlocking the paid battlepass just by playing the game is incredible, this might actually be a sustainable live service game and one I can get behind. Sure, monetization is a bad word in the gaming community but they are going to push them no matter what so we might as well support and show that models that don't treat us like cash cows are the better choice.
I've earned over 1000 SC within 3 days, which is very reasonable considering the cost of the items. I did purchase Super Citizen, but my friend mentioned he wants the steeled warbond, was nice to be able to say he'll get it in no time without paying more
that was a lie, within six days*
My issue with putting strategems on the Superstore is it's a rotating inventory so you have to wait until the game arbitrarily makes it available again which is anti-consumer as there's no benefit or enjoyment to the player for doing this.
At least if it was in a warbond, it's constantly available.
I kinda want the Superstore to just remove the rotating stock in general and just give us a catalogue to browse and choose what you want instead of using an artificial FOMO pressure to get me to buy stuff before it disappears indefinitely.
even if they add stratagems to superstore you could always grind it out i hope they remake the customization system so you could mix and match color schemes decals etc like in warframe
I think in terms of a live service game that had monatization they have been more than reasonable. With keeping a lid on things though I do worry about how far it will go I think they made a solid game and released a product that wasn't bug free but invested the time to fix it quickly.
They really need to add some variety to the objective locations. The game is so immersive in terms of making you feel like you're diving into a Hell zone but having the exact same structure / terrain set up around the same objectives across multiple different planets / systems is really immersion breaking.. They reskinned planets rather than making them unique. Quite surprising given the amount of detail that's gone into the player character and items as well as the varied two enemy types
I just hope they also buff some of the other under used primaries since right now the Breaker shotguns dominate primary wise.
I think some version of the break action shotgun will be added seeing as it’s the only support weapon you can’t buy and have to find in match currently
About Stratagems and such where they say "no but maybe".
It's a perfect and sincere answer. THEY have no intention to do so, but they are not the only ones calling the shots. If a higher up (Sony, for example) tells them to add such things behind a paywall...they don't have much leverage to say no...
So we can only hope Arrowhead will stay in charge of his own decisions.
I would like the option to spend super credits on requisition points or something. Having a couple thousand of super credits and nothing to spend it on, kinda sucks.
If anything is going to release in the future I would want more customization for the armor sets color pallets, attachments, ect as well as a way to modify them stat wise
I love the warbond system!
Id like to see portable gatling guns...
I would love the option for bigger squads or the ability to join up with another 4 man squad. The combat could be balanced depending on how many people are in the party. It would be fun to see larger battles. With bigger teams, we could get vehicle drops as well, that would be awesome.
thank you.
The exosuit in the first helldivers was pretty sick. Can’t wait for illuminate to join the war either.
I would like to see an endless mode where you and the team has to defend a station against waves of enemies. You have time to fortify the base with cover etc. and then its on to who destroys/ collects more biomass or ai chips.
the game is a blast. my only bash against it is how the events end, we liberated all the bug planets and when it ended everything just reset which sucks. woulda been cool to see the bugs make a push
Once the planets are liberated, the enemies will make a last dash attempt at Super Earth.
If you've never played the first game, we had Earth Defense missions, where you're fighting the enemies in a city environment. And my gut feeling is that in Helldivers II, we will see the same again.
If Orbital laser charges are were shared, then why did I still have 2 left after me and my teammate both used it once each. I don't think it's shared but I will test it more on a longer lvl
I think Stratagems in the store or paid warbonds will be cosmetic changes. Like blue fire napalm, purple laser orbital rather than yellow. Sort of how the current paid warbond guns are a "sidegrade" and not an upgrade.
I'm dying for the APC. Favorite stratagem from the first game.
I think the way it is with SC farming is absolutely fine, asking for more would be unfair.
This game is beyond amazing
I do hope we'll get rural and urban maps. I think it would be cool if we got these maps when we get closer to super Earth
The future of helldivers 2 looks super promising, and the devs seem really great
We’re prolly getting the mechs here soon with the Automaton Invasion going on, the Transport Civilians missions are simply too difficult as they are and with the current equipment we have available and with how fast the heavy units drop in
Other than the bad experience of full servers right when I got the game, there is no complains this is such a fun game
An app that shows us what rotating items are available would be awesome.
The forget to mention once we buy all stratagems do we stop earning money or is there a endgame for that
Game of the Year. And probably Still Game of the year next year😎
A dev said in an interview the automatons are not the same group as the cyborgs from HD1
I have farmed upwards of 600 sc just from missons alone playing the game normally and not even focusing it. Their model is great to be honest.
Can’t wait for illuminates, flying bugs, and massive automatons
I love the game so far, I don't mind the super store cause you can save up credits and use it or you can pay for it
I think they’ve handled it very well. I am personally fine when games charge for cosmetics only. if we want live service games, they have to be funded. It goes two ways. They give us things that we want to buy and we buy them so we can further enjoy the game and keep playing it. Cosmetics are perfect for this because they don’t impact gameplay. Honestly, I just hope that the way in which they have it set up allows them the funding they need to continue bringing content to the game.
I unlocked everything through just playing the game.
I’m gonna bet that they’ll put the next big update to add stuff when the next Warbond is released
Need to customize my Helldiver Colors
This game is amazing!
Would love to be able to play in bigger squads or have multiple squads on the field in a different game mode where you have to stop an invasion or take a massive base/nest
We need dedicated servers for that to happen. Peer2Peer which im guessing they use is garbage and probably a major factor why the connection issues are in the game.
This game has singlehanded got me and my old war buddies back together why can’t more companies make coop games like this
They had mechs and vehicles in the first game. And you could upgrade your weapons etc.
This game is amazing as is but it has so much potential the ceiling is through the roof. If that makes sense,if somehow they can add strikes and raids to this game. I’m never playing anything else again.
As of right now, the system is not bad. I got super credits from my war bond and was able to buy almost everything in the superstore with it. It just took time and a little grinding. They need to get their servers straightened out. That’s all they should be concerned about.
They need to buff a lot of guns and add more stats to helmets. Otherwise the game feels great how it’s setup
The only things I am worried about is inflated prices for content that is not really worth it and strategems in the superstore. Of course you can earn the super credits for free by just playing so it isn't EXACTLY pay to win. However, this depends on the cost of the strategems.
Dude if they add things like tanks and other type of vehicles like a bike or a Warthog like car that can carry all teammates that would make missions cooler and faster in a more cinematic style.
In the FAQ it was new warborn every second Tuesday
This is the best live service I've seen thus far. They NEED a mechanism to earn additional funds to keep the game fresh. It is not pay to win and the option to not spend is there as well. So far this game has been a blast and I cannot wait to jump on again tonight!
I spent $20 on Super Credits, and I am currently debating buying the "Super Citizen" 'DLC' because I genuinely want to support the Devs.
Hell, the games fun to the point I don't mind waiting 20-30 minutes in queue to get in. I would like them to fix that, and possibly get the Xbox players in, but currently after only 11 days being live, I am OK with the servers still struggling a bit, because:
A) I don't think anyone expected the game to blow up and become so popular so quickly.
B) I don't want the Devs to make the same mistake many have made in the past, and buy really big, really expensive servers only to spend all their money on said servers, when they only needed a moderate upgrade.
But yeah, I can see myself playing the game for the foreseeable future, with some breaks to avoid burnout.
Overall I think its a pretty fair system, at least currently. You can earn everything in game without paying, and thats a big one to me. I do think harder missions should have higher rewards at some point. The more you grind and the harder it is the more it should pay out. Just seems the best way to do it
I honestly hope we see new species. I want to see a race of superman/omni man type aliens who float around fighting us with eye lazers or something
if they do plan on adding Strategems to the Warbond/SuperStore I really hope it's more cosmetic, so like a "Green Orbital Strike" or "blue gas" type thing
Probably not using the Superstore cuz im poor but whatever. And the "battlepass" is basically earnable ingame, maybe with a little cashinfusion every few months, but thats fine with me if the content keeps coming and if it is worth it.
The one thing I wish they would do is change the Super Store. Add a Full store that has all the stuff in it purchasable at any time. But make each item there cost like 1000 Super Credits. And then have the Rotating Door page with the current prices. That way if somebody really had it for a specific item, they dont have to wait for the RNG to decide they can buy it now, especially since everybody doesnt play a game, every single day.
So the Cyborgs aren't the Automatons they confirmed that in the trailer they released so likely we'll see the Cyborgs added and the Alien race.
It is so refreshing for a game company to not implement FOMO mechanics...
I love this game so much and I will spend so much money on it just to say thank You and support this non-predatory approach!
This game is a sperfect as it gets am blown away dont change anything just keep adding like they said
Would be nice to have customize mechs. Pick ur legs or wheels. Left, right arm( machine gun,rocket launcher, autocannon..). Armour/weight type. And your own colors
it's kind of wild that you still think things would be pay to win if the add things to the war bonds or the superstore. literally you can obtain everything without spending a penny other than the base game. and that's because you can gain every form of currency from playing the game. for instance I've been able to buy all the armor in both rotations of the superstore solely through playing the game. also worked my way for the premium war bonds.
Cyborgs evolved into Automatons, they referenced them as their children, alongside their symbol looking very much the same
I really hope with every premium warbond there is an equal normal warbond people can save the premium money from.
Gimme my mechas! 😤
Yesssss DRIOD FIGHT!!
They need final push/defence missions that come up that invoke 3 or 4 squads vs a massive onslaught
If you look at hell divers one guns and stratagems were in there dlc so stratagems in war bonds does not sound that terrible. And really if you have a crew of people you could get any gun or any of that off there body other than pistols.
Warbonds just feel like a fast track system
Overall I think everything they have done so far seems pretty fair. but they need to fix the server issues!
I can't wait for vehicles. The 2 person bikes in the first one felt kinda meh because you shared a screen so being faster than the rest of your team wasn't very useful. Now that its 3rd person I can see them being super useful for getting across the map quickly, or having a duo strafe around some enemies to pick them off while the other 2 fight. The 4 person APC could be awesome.
Super earth probably has the evacuate people
It is not a red flag since you can get about 100 SC on a medium match. I know it is not ideal (I hate MT ingeneral usually). But they are doing it is well enough and I don't think it is bad.
Weapon augmentation. I want it bad. Especially when melee feel so weak and there is no for ex. bayonet attachment
Stratagems in warbonds might not be pay to win. There are a lot of cosmetic things you could do with some of the Stratagems that could be unlocked through warbonds. Think different turret skins, different support weapon skins, and so on.
Was thinking that there would always be a free warbond with the pa8d butnif not grinding SC will be a slog
I made 1k super cred in 4 days. Comfy rate. Only 2-3 hours a day I get to play
Helldivers 2 is the first game that seems to want to be a live service to be alive, not because of its profitability. I'm excited to see what's being cooked
Adding something to the superstore is not pay to win if we can get the sueprcredits by playing the game (and we can). Could be considered pay for convenience, but that's it.
There's an interview with one of the devs where he talks about the cyborgs from HD1 and says "by the way, cyborgs are NOT the automatons, wink wink"
I love how the triple A companies are struggling. Meanwhile the indie developers are doing amazing
