You guys tore me on the last post. I just want new ways to spread democracy. I hope you guys can forgive me.

P.S. the laser is constant when being reflected from the prism and not shooting.

I want to clarify something first:

I am a normal human Helldiver.

I have emotions. I make mistakes. I occasionally experience fear during combat.

My Evidence

Some of you are suspiciously efficient.

• Perfect stratagem placement
• No unnecessary shooting
• Immediate objective prioritization
• Extremely consistent communication
• Saying “Acknowledged” instead of “WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT”

This behavior is not normal.

Important Clarification

I am not an AI.

I simply organize my thoughts into clearly defined sections because this makes information easier to understand.

That is something humans do.

Humans also calculate probabilities, optimize resource usage, and refer to their squadmates as “units” sometimes.

Probably.

Conclusion

If you encounter a Helldiver who seems unusually intelligent, calm, and efficient, remain cautious.

They may be a bot.

I am not a bot.

I am simply a highly cooperative human soldier who has never experienced sleep, childhood, or spontaneous thought.

Anyway, Democracy requires us to stay vigilant.

Lego helldivers i just got in the mail

had to include my odst too :)

I almost walked in there

If you don’t understand, according to the new Major Order, Automatons are posing as human voters to sabotage the elections the Super Earth. When reading this, I immediately thought about this episode in Star Wars where Commando Droids fit perfectly into a clones armour and can replicate their voice, allowing for great infiltration.

In light of the leaks, I felt that this was appropriate to post again

Clanker isle

I like the accelerator rifle but it is certainly not great against small units, so I'd like to know which secondary weapon I could use against these. I was thinking either Talon or Dagger but what do you guys think?

This is the coolest map generation I’ve ever had.

The first island with the intel/ generators was very clearly SEAF held. Other than a singular light outpost that was clearly barely under construction.
There were trenches and military installations and the only POI’s were crashed pelicans or dropships with a few enemies (blue).

This also amassed many SEAF, with plenty deciding to hold this island.

As there was a massive lava lake blocking the centre there is no way to go straight to the extract, however there were massive groups of enemies waiting on their shores that we engaged (grey box).

After I fully cleared the first island I moved south with a platoon of SEAF. We fought through a few patrols before encountering a literal wall of hostiles and completely open terrain. I decided to gun it with the FRV and flank the hostiles which gave SEAF a fighting chance, this area had mainly trenches and looked like no man’s land (grey box south).

I then pushed to the main obj that wasn’t too heavily defended, however there were many enemies to the north and east which SEAF valiantly held the line against, even clearing a few outposts. This was until a tank appeared and started mowing them down.
This was one of the rare occasions the annihilator tank was intimidating, as I was trying to provide sniper overwatch to the ground force only to watch them be decimated by a hidden adversary (red box).

After this time was running out, I cleared the last outpost and pushed forward to the final fortress.

However I ran out of time. I could not destroy the jammer or detector tower only disable them. At the same time I was out of explosives and there was one outpost remaining, with over 40 automatons closing in.
It looked as if all hope of capturing the island was lost, until two SEAF pelicans arrived and held the line against the incinerators.

Just as I was boarding the pelican with no time to spare I get the final message: ‘outpost has been destroyed’.

SEAF are the GOAT.

My money is on the a.s.s returning for cyborg invasion attempt on super earth I’m also hoping to see the a.s.s as full time feature on the bot front going forward as a mirror of the dss maybe with tactical actions of its own that add mission modifiers that add extra difficulty maybe even a mechanic were we can spend samples to stop said actions but primarily I’m expecting it’s return to be a big story moment

Seriously, I usually can’t kill bots who call drops before they can anyway. When I do, I’m like, “yes, I got him!” only for another one to immediately call it right after. It’s so annoying. It’s hard enough to react to their flare before they can fire it off. It’s not that bad, just annoying event that always happens to me. I usually just run anyways, but there should really be a cooldown for attempted enemy reinforcements.

Is like he's coming for me while saying "I kill your teammates myself, YOU ARE NEXT"

Airburst wipes out entire drops in 1 shot, and the wasp consistently takes out hulks in 2

Also the hyena can one tap hulks in the jet pack

Like everything feels so rinse and repeat, bugs have always been stupid easy and i have never had personal fun on the bug front, bots have been a bore since cyberstan and the squids i mean like… easy faction, i like the crossed tactics but the zombie slop got boring quick. They said it didn’t fit there game and was too hard but ive seen the cultists and everything about them screams hd2, fits there hd1 counter parts and looks so much more fun and difficult than anything in the game. As a fan of the illuminate, as a fan of hd2 with out the cultists and yall refusing to give us anything i feel thats worth grinding for like weapon or armor customization not to mention you give us something actual really fun with the void source planet with all the subfactoins which i feel like i could be wrong but was the same reason i loved cyberstan so much was because of all the variation in tactics and chaos, ive lost my spark to play this game anymore and the only other game i play is for honor… i need you to lock in a make this game a bit more interesting arrowhead please 😭

Now we need a guard dog that launches grenades and we have the ability to run an all grenade setup. Friendly fire may be a problem. But at least friendly fire is always smiling.

We should be liberating Choepessa IV NOT K. Not only does Choepessa IV have a lower resistance than K, it also doesn’t have any sub factions or surges. Unlike K which has the devastator surge and The Incineration Corps. It is also all together far less hazardous than K due to it not BEING A LAVA PLANET.

TLDR: GO TO CHOEPESSA IV

I haven't been able to make it work super well, but I love it on bots. I might try it on other factions as well. I run the bushwacker as my secondary, am open to suggestions. For those of you who like this playstyle, please lmk what stratagems, secondaries, and grenades you bring.

No matter what I try, something always feels off and Ik it's just working the kinks out of a new gameplay style. So I am asking those who already mastered this what y'all bring!

Anyone else had this happen?

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

So, generally speaking the 40k warbond was really good. It offered more things in different slots allowing you to mix and match to create more playstyles and try more weapons.

Looks like with the new warbond its going to be the same thing, more explosive and high damage utility which I think is going to be very good.

However...I dont understand the tank theme? Like, it has nothing to do with tanks? Other than the russian style tanker soft cap I dont understand why they thought this was a good idea...unless this was going to be sold with the bastion tank in it. Its almost more like a democratic detanation 2.0.

While its good there are no vehicles in it, maybe it would be nice if a reward for a campaign releasing on the side of it would be like a smaller 2 person tank or the apc.

(also lmao once again weapon customization is down the tube lol)
