VGChartz's Lee Mehr: "Helldivers II is a sterling success through its potent fusion of polished gunplay, overwhelming odds, and an unapologetically satirical tone. By remaining so thoroughly committed to the bit through world-building, presentation, and so on, it's pure bliss to revel in the joyous destruction against bug and automaton alike. After all, I believe it was Thomas Jefferson who said "the tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants." And we can't have tyrants destroying our very way of life now, can we? There comes a time in every patriot's life that they must ignore incessant phone calls from family & friends in order to spread Managed Democracy for the greater good. If you have the guts, fortitude, and passion to spread liberty by any means necessary, then earn your cape and become a Helldiver today! Would you like to know more?"
The new Arrowhead CEO reached out to the Helldivers 2 Reddit page to share his thoughts and tell the community to be peaceful when making suggestions to the developer.
The new Emancipator Exosuit Mech has been added to Helldivers 2, but many players aren't impressed with how it performs.
Very loud minority is complaining. I see people using one in every round i play and they kick ass, have to remember there are tons of kids that play this game, and they complain about every single little tiny bad thing even if there are 10 pros and 1 con. Also, this is definitely not accurate. I’ve literally seen these mechs destroy chargers and titans, in the gate defense missions with this mech it literally makes it infinitely easier to hold the gates.
What a crock of shit, whoever wrote this just sucks at the game, they’re embellishing everything for some reason. Maybe they have a chip on their shoulder against the developers. Stop playing the game if all it does is make you angry, those of use that love the game will continue to appreciate their constant updates and toys to play with.
Matter of fact this post just made me want to play around, see you on the battlefield.
Are the number of shots required to kill the enemies outlined in the article incorrect?
I haven't tested it myself but this is a snippet from the article.
"Kills Bile Titans to the head in around 40-45 shots (Way more than the autocannon sentry for some stupid reason)
Kills Chargers to the head in 10 shots
Kills Chargers to the leg in 8 shots
Kills Bile Spewers in 4 shots
Kills Brood Commanders in 2-4 shots to the head"
Some support weapons can one-shot those enemies and I believe the argument is that the mech should be more powerful than it appears.
I personally think it is about using the right weapon for each faction. This new mech is more effective against the automatons while the first mech is stronger against the terminids.
A new mission is coming to Helldivers 2 that looks to lead to the destruction of the galaxy, which could bring The Illuminate to the game.
So yes I think this was basically revealed yesterday. So apparently (and mind you HD lore is really quite dark) they have Illuminate blood stored from the first war that will be used as a super weapon to destroy an entire planet. The bug blood, BTW, is also used by Super Earth to power FTL travel.
Can't wait to experience the last stand of the super bug colony. And then face the Illuminate.
