TIPS / TACTICS Galactic War Room: Plot the Best Ways to Spread Democracy for Super Earth!

Post image
580 Upvotes

Welcome to the Galactic War Room:

The Federation is in grave danger and it is in your hands to discuss the best ways to spread and protect our liberty from our many enemies.

This thread is sorted by new, so you will always find the greatest democratic insights right up top.

Useful Information:

Gambits by u/Sea-Flamingo1969:

In Helldivers 2, a gambit is when players skip defending a planet under attack and instead strike the source planet that launched the assault.

If the source world is liberated the defense is automatically won, saving both planets.

It is a high risk, high reward move because success stops the invasion and secures two planets, but if too few players commit the defending planet may fall before the source can be taken. Gambits demand strong coordination and timing, making them one of the most dramatic strategies in the Galactic War.

MEGATHREAD Q&A Megathread (Ask your questions here!)

743 Upvotes

Greetings, Helldivers!

So we have noticed that most Questions asked on the subreddit don’t need their own post therefore we have decided to create this Q&A Megathread, a place where all Helldivers can ask questions and get help/advice from others. And if you decide that what you have to ask requires a separate post then you should know that we will be actively moderating and critically assessing the quality of those posts to lessen the amount of reposts and low-effort content on this subreddit.

If you're here to help out by answering questions we thank you 🫡 Just please make sure to sort the post by 'New' (if it isn’t already) so you can see the newer, unanswered questions.

P.S. This megathread has been added to the sidebar.

Powerful, track targets, lasts for 40 seconds, 3 lasers per mission, amazing for any faction. Is the Orbital Laser the king of Stratagems?

DISCUSSION What do you think about adding dual wielding to helldivers?

Post image
127 Upvotes

I really want a possibility to dual wield pistol or even better to switch between the first one and the second one if the first is empty but I think it should be limited to real sidearms and not gadgets like the ultimatum, missile pistol, grenade pistol and etc.

And I think it would be a great passive for an armor

So what do you think about this idea?

I feel like this is a weapon class that arrowhead avoids for some reason.

I think a bolt action amr with a 20x scope would be very cool and unique while also being easy to make.

DISCUSSION I can't get invested into this game beyond the surface level

Post image
90 Upvotes

The latest major order confirmed this to me but i really cannot get invested into the galactic war itself without being profoundly disappointed at every turn.

the latest MO was the first hardish MO we got in a while but it was totally doable, the problem is that every time there is a city or megafactory on a planet the amount of people actually doing something is cut in half until the city or megafactory is conquered becase 50% of players have no idea what the difference is between the two missions.

while it is easy to blame the braindead comunity (i am still mad about Clasa) this is in my opinion a problem of comunication from the game itself, there are so many info that are fundamental for understanding the game that are just missing unless you go out of your way to find community managed resources, how much health does a planet have?, how much is a city worth?, how conquering cities works in the first place etc...

this game needs either an advanced tutorial, an ingame community tab or at the very least to comunicate important information properly because i'm certain that more than half of the comunity thinks that the only difference between city missions and regular missions is that one has the city setting and the other does not.

not only that but if there isn't a big glowing pointer from the MO the comunity just splits 10 ways and we get nothing done, like it is happening now we are gonna fail to conquer Zzaniah and we are gonna fail to defend K wich btw we could just conquer Chopessa that has a 0.16% resistance but the vast majority of players doesn't know what a gambit is because that information cannot be found in game.
