Helldivers 2 had a huge update today with a new Democratic Detonation Warbond. Testing the new Explosive Sniper with @Tomographic @Stodeh Leave a LIKE and a comment, thanks for watching.
Probably unlikely since for the helldivers to be deployed, orbital superiority needs to be achieved first. That means Automaton stratagems most likely aren't going to be added, but that does open a lot of potential gamemodes. Super Destroyer vs Automaton Mothership, anyone?
@@NoName...... I'd imagine 4 squads of Helldivers with their own ships vs 4 dreadnoughts of the automatons. The players would operate the armaments installed on the ship and drive/steer also the ship used by the squad is the one the host selects.
But consider the idea: Automatons using their own strategems means they got their own ships in orbit. Our own Super Destroyers are also in orbit. Just aim the helldiver cannon sideways, and we get to board their ships. Take over their ships and use their own strategems against them. Very efficient method of spreading democracy.
Another idea, automaton ships push in and fire their own stategems until our own super dreadnoughts can push them out. Planet side Helldivers can't use their own strategems while the super dreadnoughts are finished.
"Maybe I´ll turn into an Automaton one day...." Yep...thats a report to the Democracy Officer...this ain´t anything personal Jack...just seemed a bit too suspecious....
I mean Helldivers2 was a financial success. Idk about Shatterline. Gotta factor that in. Rn Helldiver's has like 11.5 million units sold on Steam according to vginsights
Seems a bit redundant when you can just stun grenade them once and line up an easy headshot with your support weapon. If it took only 2 to kill i could maybe see them being useful when you're too overwhelmed with other enemies for that strategy to work or if you're using something like the stalwart, but right now they're kinda eh.
Or they could learn from this one and see how they could make those more interesting. Instead of just having the NPCs run from point A to B, perhaps we need to defend the NPCS as they perform various task around a larger map. So get rid of the arena style map for civilian extract and change it to the larger maps with various sub objectives where you defend them as they do hilarious task.
The new defense mission is 1000% FUCKING AWESOME. It's exactly how i envisioned defense missions to be like. Defending lines of the base, emplacement, killzones, high ground etc: not like the eradicate mission where half the time they drop an entire division onto you that forces you to go to the outskirts in order to have a chance...
This is one of my favorite games I’ve watched you play in years, Mr. Frags. The graphics mixed w the atmosphere you and your friends create together is truly one of a kind. It’s nice to see a quality game that didn’t need 15 bug fix patches to play properly
I found with the explosive sniper you need to take something like a Stalwart to use as a pseudo-primary and treat the sniper as your power weapon/ long range. Otherwise it's too slow and unwieldy to use as your primary, and there's an interesting glitch where you fall towards whatever you are shooting if you are too close to the explosion which isn't ideal if what you are shooting has chainsaws for arms. It is very good for popping devastators, 1-shotting scout walkers and destroying bot fabricators though.
They could make this even more fun by adding assets outside the walls that you could activate with a timer, like anti-air, shield generators, or even a capture point, then increase the spawn rate to the same as an "extract scientists" mission. Or better yet cause the spawns and drop points to move closer to the intact gates after they break the outer ones. It would make the map feel a feel little less like a passive defense, and make it so that if you aren't having an upkeep on those outer defenses, it'll get progressively harder.
mines are pretty good, short cool down. So you can put one down at the start and by the time the bot's show up you can drop another one on the other side. I got the ship buff for fire so I use those.
Preordering this game and not missing out on the galactic war lore from the beginning is the best thing I have ever done. Feels like living in a part of history. Fantastic game
The Eruptor is a fantastic gun, unfortunately Jack isn't using it that well in this video lol.. The aoe of the eruptor will definitely kill multiple other enemies around the target you shoot if theyre fairly close together. It also one shots most of the medium armor enemies.
Think a lot of people fall into the trap of not adapting the rest of their loadout as well. It pairs best with something like the machine guns or the arc thrower that you can pretty much use to replace a standard primary, instead of just picking quasar every time.
you really need EMS mortars on this mission to make it easy, and the ajudacator scope like the AMR is not aligned it will one shot kill up to devasators with a single head shot but good luck actually landing one with the scope
Use your quasar on heavy targets more! You can one shot hulks , and two - three shot tanks, with the Eruptor rifle blowing up the smaller targets, it's an AWESOME combo to run, try it out sometime it's fun. The cooldown on quasar cannon is like 3-4 seconds.
Ive seen a lot of halo odst comparisons which i 100% love the thought of but also imagine you’re the clone army having to hold waves of droids similar to this high level of action and team work. Maybe something like that was planned for the battlefront 3 game we never got to have 😔😔
Wish the new medium armor had the engineering kit bonus so it could work in tandem with the new thermite, don't see it as the robot arm bonus with the extra throwing distance.
It's funny that you say it looks like a WH40k bolter Jack. As the ammunition used in bolters are also jet assisted rounds 😅 I wonder where they got the Idea from! 👀
I finally bought it for AUS$50 last night, played my first escort mission ... and failed it. I had no idea what I was supposed to be doing and got swarmed. Haha. I need to get my buttons sorted out.
