But... they *are* having fun. That's what games are for.

"I swear I'm so tired of no lifes" how do i address this is in the nicest way possible? 1. "this game is about playing with friends" I do play with friends, very often too - but don't upload it. Since that's the majority of the experience most of us are consuming on the daily while playing HD2, i don't think it's content worthy. We know the chaos that unfolds is fun, nothing wrong with that. 2. i like a challenge. I like finding ways to play games in ways not designed as intended, it keeps my gamer brain ticking and keeps me sharp, allowing me to show my friends tricks, tips, and optimize playstyles for both casual and tryhards - It helps explore the game past the normies experience, which is to be desired for many who can't achieve that. 3. the elephant in the room - "I swear I'm so tired of no lifes" I have done, and been through more in my life then most can say. Setting aside the 3 languages i speak due to traveling the world at a young age, a brother of 3, a self-made NYC resident coming from a immigrant EU family, serving in the US military, followed by getting my degree in multimedia and 3D animation, working at AIMLABS...and in the middle of publishing and producing my own games. My piece of advice to you would be, watch what you say...the internet will surprise you.

Oh and i casually have a ytube channel with over 20K subs for the fuck of it... shrug.

@@2SK3TCHY you didnt have to say shrug, that part makes me cringe a bit lmao, other guy is lost tho. Pin of shame!

i didn't have to do any of this tbh. But sure, excuse the petty attitude. I just see too many people assume no consequence will happen, or take any consideration when writing into the void we called the internet, i think it's ok to remind others there are real human life's behind these words/screens. Enjoy ur weekend bro.@@gamersupreme7980

Hard Stealth: The act of leaving no witnesses

You ever play Hitman? LOL

@@flygawnebardoflight There can be no alert if you leave no one alive !

It counts as stealth if you leave no witnesses

Well he didn’t go in guns blazing and technically did as much stealth he could the 500kg is a little loud maybe

in the military you expect to be judged but Helldivers 2 is a harsh mistress

Effective Self Preservation isn't very Democracy it seems

the new rating system is kinda ass ngl

@projectTyrasa what is self-preservation in the face of democracy? It's nothing but cowardice and selfishness.

Well, of course. There are many objectives Super Earth wants out of you! And they'd prefer you didn't come back if you don't complete them.

The game actually takes into account how much you destroyed on a mission and applies that to the "world statistics" to determine how strong the remaining forces are there, thus the defenses don't get weakened for future missions on that world but might even be stronger since the bots have less to defend with a lot of remaining forces from the previous failed defense. I do like the games Push Pull system, makes for a very interesting way of things as we can win objectives all day but still lose the war.

@@Lvcian_Guardian Not being argumentative but is there a source for that? Never heard of that being a feature.

@@Lvcian_Guardianya that sounds like a cool idea! But unfortunately I don’t think that’s in the game yet. Destroying more factories “reduces enemy presence” in that mission, but I’m pretty sure it doesn’t affect future missions

​​@@tylerrice9924The point isn't that it affects future missions, it affects your squad contribution towards the liberation counter, he's just providing the in world justification.

@@DBZHGWgamer unfortunately I’m pretty sure that’s not the case either. The only thing that affects your contribution to the liberation percentage is the number of missions in an operation. 1 mission = .0001% 2 missions = .0002% 3 missions = .0003% I could be wrong but that is what looks like I think it would be sick if side objectives and stuff did affect those percentages

Yeah jetpack makes it so easy to get to those spots. Simply getting the high ground has so many advantages that people overlook

Alternatively, toss a grenade away from the LZ, as long as you're not detected most of the spawned enemies should go towards that location to investigate, clearing the LZ.

Some LZs just have a spot where you can tuck yourself away and if the squad comes in from the right side they just never patrol to where you are.

​@@davidtrueblood1863its over clanker, I have the high ground

stealth is necessary on all bot missions… but this guy is taking it to the extreme

its on my thumb mouse key, just didnt use~ but for anyone reading this, yes u can switch shoulders

can you do it on console ?

@@cheemthiefyeah just gotta figure out a bind for it

​@@cheemthief it's aim and hold down on d-pad, but me and my dad switched it to hold X while aiming. The setting is called switch camera side

The hell i dint know that. God i love this game.

Yes true starship troopers sequel we never got.

@@TheOrgil220Starship Scouts: Leave No Witnesses 😆

the part where she got her right leg hit is very heartbreaking. also the fact that she got shot on the back while fleeing after destroying airbase is very cliche. i dont understand why didn't she keep shooting with the mech and even died instead of going around the rock

💀

Bro! No! This was freaking awesome! Please keep it going! I was on the edge of my seat the whole time. You don't have much to do but share your recorded gamplay!

Why start posting hell diversity stuff if you are just going to move on?

so when i do post another, it's a surprise~ lol@@pray4dropz438

Imma sub just cuz I appreciate that kinda honesty my guy good stuff

I forgot about that 😂

Stealth really only works against the bots. I have yet to achieve a stealth win against the bugs.

@@rehzxy4428 It's not possible with the bugs, they're too sensitive.

@@rehzxy4428bugs are more difficult for stealth because they have very heavy armor variants that you can’t easily take out with something like the anti material rifle. Not to mention the bugs chase you instead of shooting you which makes them more difficult to loose aggro

So good! i agree~

you can almost hear the "oh shit" when he aims the AMR and it went *click*

An Oh shit I have on many a times experienced.@@nickkurzy2246

agreed !

@Khinouille I just realized, it's probably because they want to encourage co-op play

Imagine getting spotted by a single bug of any description, and then every single enemy on the map knows your exact location and rushes immediately to drown you in bodies. There is no stealth against the tyranids, only exterminatus

@Wangpi3ce yeah which means people that play stealth on bug planets are kinda special.

Yeah because their damn front armor counts as heavy for some god forsaken reason

you can shoot the dick region, at least with the machine gun strategem you can pen there

it's so weird because several primaries can so when I'm running slugger or scorcher it's more effective to jump out, shoot their hip 3 times, and get back in the mech

@@forty9r9r7I mean with scorcher you can just shoot them in the face and the AOE from the plasma kills the pilot after the 2nd or 3rd shot so yeah effective indeed

would a tackle from the mech be able to take them out though?

yeah he can call it "anti-meta", this loadout is about as meta as possible. 500kg is so meta because it's as good as the high level orbitals but you get 2 AND it has like half the cooldown.

⁠​⁠​⁠@@forty9r9r7 i disagree, its frequently used but not meta. there are better options for taking out heavies and objectives, like the orb. railcannon or rocket pods. i do think he couldve used a less frequented strat and achieved the same result. if the 500kg gets a buff to its area of effect it will be meta, but right now its inconsistencies drop it below its more consistent contemporaries.

Yup the enemies actually have senses and will react to noise and visuals (the bugs even have smell at close range). So have to be careful about using drops but at the same time you can diistract them with grenades and false noises.

@@SilvaDreams Yes! Mortars are super super useful for pulling patrols AND potentially dealing with them until they run out of ammo.

ohh MG+jet sounds like a good time~

ok, i thought i noticed something - it deff feels smoother then day 1. Glad im not alone in this lol

They stealth buffed it, I believe they gave it shorter cooldown and higher jump.

Whenever i use it my feet get caught on a 6 inch lip and I just slide back down to the ground. If over 1/2 your body or even arms are up, you should climb the surface imo. Still use it all the time but sometimes it’s like… really?…

@@Yomamacallinbak83 this or you clamber everything you don’t want to. Like seriously game, why would I want to climb on the supply drop.

lmao yeah time to get yourself a gift after all this time my man

Another xcom Player I see and indeed, bro looks like a reaper

There is a smell mechanic. So there are literally bloodhounding you

@@acarrillo8277 so we gamers are fucked, can we buy a ship module called shower or something
