For anyone who lacks friends to play with, I too lack them. I’ll be buying it today on PC. If you want to play together then just ask and we’ll organize it
I highly recommend getting the Expendable Anti-Tank and Eagle Airstrike early on as nothing is worse than having to face down a Charger or Walkers while unlocking difficulties with little more than some HE Grenades and an Orbital Precision Strike on a 100s cooldown.
I think the Recoilless rifle is a better option than the expendable as you can reload it and if you hit a charger in the head with it its a 1 shot kill
I would recommend if u Play Solo to complete the Mission First. Even if u die and fail to extract u get all the rewards regardless of the extraction succes.
My tip is to try lots of things, weapons, stratagems, unlocks, etc to find what you feels good to you. And have fun! I enjoy different builds from my friends and we all like different gear.
Not overlooked, I used it in for a majority of my first livestream and I hate shotguns in most games preferring DMR's and Pistols. Here the DMR is garbage.
This is SUCH a great beginner video. I didn't watch any videos just jumped in the game but you need to watch at least a couple guide videos and this is a great one, thanks!
Yeah or atleast play with someone who knows. Personally I’d recommend all new player unlock every stratagem that costs 1500 currency so you can go with as many as possible and save your money for the stuff you unlock later
I just played my first mission, it was pumping fuel. I ran into two pretty big groups of termanids and didn’t realize stealth existed. I barely extracted in the midst of three or four fire tornados. Shit was fun af, I’m hooked.
So my personal strategy is to u lock all the stratagems that cost 1500 r. Personally I run a machine gun sentry a grenade launcher orbital precision and the basic eagle airstrike. That way you have things to rotate between from every category with less overlap. Not that it isn’t good to have choices for support weapons but since you can only hold 1 a time it probably isn’t the smartest thing to do early game. I chose these cause they cost the least so I can save my currency for all the level 10 u lock stratagems. It’s my second day playing and I’m level 6 rn
...why did you tell ppl to spend medals on cosmetics and credits early again? Credits I could understand being for buying the premium warbond in the future, but i feel like it's better for them to just get the armors and weapons to try out while levelling up and still progress through the default warbond that way...
level 3 cadet today just taken through some map with a 73 admiral and a few others who joined. Holy shit this game is awesome. Just to see what is eventually possible was amazing. I made it through the mission and did well. What a great game.
It's called open the game when you get off work/come home from school. Get your shower/snack/whatever you do. Then when you come back to your game boom your in your ship. I literally opened my game last night made a sandwich and I was already in when I came back
My reactions are far too slow for this game. Takes an age for me to remember what button, then to follow the up,down,left,right commands Or forgetting to reload.
@@Officer-Boles I did a couple missions w/randoms and it was fine. I have one friend who also plays but yeah generally the community seems pretty cool.
That's the whole gag, the training/tutorial was very basic training and lots of propaganda, you look like a natural helldiver here's your cape, get in there. You get in there and you know nothing.
I am always out of ammo and cannot figure out how to find more. There's not always enough to kill all the things that are running at me, even if I'm careful with my aim. Is there any way to get more bullets? I've tried asking this on Reddit and my posts keep getting deleted. I'm past the point where Steam will let me return this game. Any help would be appreciated.
Call in resupply strategem and support stratagem and rotate between all three weapons, also dont spam fire but fire in bursts if possible and use sentry strategems as cover fire when necessary
I mean it has a little bit of a learning curve but its not like Warframe or Destiny where you cant even do the story line in the proper and intended order.
This is not what i typed on the search bar nor did your video covered what i wanted to know. i asked how does one change region with the big galactic ship that we have. lets say i want to go to the automation from the bugs part of the galaxy. How would i do that, cause when i hover on them the mouse becomes a cross symbol stating i cannt jump there.
For anyone who lacks friends to play with, I too lack them. I’ll be buying it tomorrow on PC 4/21/2024. If you want to play together then just ask and we’ll organize it
im going to buy it this week and im worried that i wont like it. im a cod player btw. i also watched a couple of videos still don’t know how to feel. i really wna try it out and like
Why. It me til. The satellites you can activate that will reveal areas of interest on the map? And the diamond markers on the map as well. Heavy activity areas marked in red are key as well.
In my game there is no turning off matchmaking...there is public and friends only, but when I try to join a mission solo it's always with people 40 levels above me and I don't feel like I'm good enough to play with a crew yet. How do I play solo?
What I don’t get is it’s a 4 coop game but when I hover over to a planet it’ll say 40000 hell divers on the map. And when I click on one of the planet itself with the different mission , itll usually have only 1/4 players for each mission on that planet. Obviously there isn’t 4000 players playing on one planet. So I’m just so confused on how that works
Entertainingly the 'You should Retreat' advice has actually been found to be a really bad idea since aggro spreads from any activated enemies, so not killing the active ones makes any attempts at stealth useless :D
At about 7 min it is said in the video that the game tells you how many samples are in the map of the mission your doing. Ive never seen or heard this while playing. Does anyone know if you can really see how many samples will be in the mission?
Lol "the game gradually introduces things and develops my skill meaningfully." My friends taking me in on diff 4 or 5, think we did 6 or 7 today, im level 8 atm lol, just right off the bat.. 😂 I'm learning, but fuckin hell lol
Wouldn’t recommend it this game is so much better with friends or other players. Some people are really bad but it’s fun I started yesterday and had to carry but it felt like I was master chief leading a squad.
No, there is no single player MODE but the game can be played solo. The gameplay is based on co-op teamwork so it might feel difficult and/or lacking overall.
Looks great. I guess it's not based on the books, at least not on the first two because they're way different. Also they should have called the automatons "Tyranators" lol
Yeah, written by N.S. Smith (narrated by R.C. Bray!) but I don't think they're related. The books are post-apocalyptic near-future sci-fi on earth, not futuristic sci-fi in space. Basically the Earth is irradiated and humanity lives on blimps, and small teams dive to find resources. @@giantslayer9335
You say dont buy any weapons but offer no advice what to do with the credits later. And you offer no advice on stratagems except not to buy them. Is this supposed to be helpful ?
@@EcksToo You don't gotta sound like an asshole. Literally half of these tips are actually mentioned in the game itself, making the title of your video complete bullshit. Try harder to make content dude, you'll get it!
I'd buy the weapons, you have to spend them to unlock the next tier, and that number grows, so you can't just save them for the big end stuff. It's going to force you to even buy the emotes unless you go for the big stuff first. And I would definitely buy the ones that give you that blue super currency, that's the currency that costs real money but you can get it like that, you only need 1000 to buy the premium pass. That's the way to do it the free way without spending real money on it. Unless you want to save them till they rotate out the entire line up down the road and just skip these items, but eh for me idk how long term I'm going to play this game and who knows when it will change
Quit being an asshole, he made the time and effort to do this. If you’re so ‘elite’ at Helldiver; what don’t you do a video yourself about how to buy weapons? So to answer your incredulous question; ‘’yes, this tutorial for me was helpful.’’
Also. Situational as shit but i wanna add my own thing HELLDIVERS CANNOT SWIM. Idk why. but they cant. I found that out the hard way at lvl 19 almost 20
What? You recommend getting cosmetics with our medals? That's not gonna make the gameplay more fun unless someone is that type who like to stare at their characters ass the whole time.
How in the actual hell am i someone lower ranked better than almost half of these people wbo die 10+ times and i rarely die randoms are so annoying i just cant

Holding the reload button just blew my mind 😅
My tip is to try lots of things, weapons, stratagems, unlocks, etc to find what you feels good to you. And have fun! I enjoy different builds from my friends and we all like different gear.
I feel like the shotgun at the beginning of the war bond is kind of overlooked, which is sad because it’s a really good shotgun
Not overlooked, I used it in for a majority of my first livestream and I hate shotguns in most games preferring DMR's and Pistols. Here the DMR is garbage.
Me with my jaw on the floor at 05:00 after wishing that we could select fire
That part!
Your jaw must be on the floor a lot
LITERALLYYYYYYYYYY fuck I was struggling with the entire game bro
It makes the second mg you get so good it has a max fire rate of 1250 :D
That is a tip that the game DOES tell you.... very early on
Wish I saw this when I was level 1! I'm still a beginner at 11. Love the style of presentation. Thank you for this!
As someone who very recently earn his cape, I thank you for providing a Fellow Diver with this vital intelligence
beat my first mission...barely. called in the extraction with no ammo at all. Havent had a stressful and fun game like that in a while lol

If you like to solo, I suggest getting mortars sentry. It’s such a powerful tool in solo but with friendly fire on, it’s not so great in coop 😂
Yep
checking your surroundings while running away is also very helpful

Some people don't understand this is a BEGINNERS GUIDE, not a novice or intermediate guide.
What happens in multiplayer when you die can they loot your samples ?
Yeah. But everyone gets them at the end of the match. So it's a good thing anyone can loot them from teammate's corpses.
Ahh cool - think I will get game definitely sounds cool
Just bought the game, thanks for the tips!
Same, see you out there Helldiver!
How do I get pink on my super citizen armor?
I feel like i can deliver freedom better and democracy better if I was pink.
Thanks man, super helpful. I like to get intel before "diving" in 😅
played for a bit too long not knowing how to purchase new strategems or anything about the weapon tweaking, thnx
Enlisting today this video will definitely help me out on my journey to help my brother spread democracy 😅
What are the strats to get on the game, it seems like it is the hardest part
Once you get in, never leave hahaa

Just bought it! i'm kinda late i hope i'm not behind cauz i heared when playing with randoms they will kick you if you don't have "Meta loadout"
