@PlayStation - Hry
Playing with randos is half the fun, just spent 2 hours playing with one guy through an operation on challenging.
I just did challenging as well, it’s kind of a big jump from medium lol. Mad fun
@smooth9169 on helldiver (tier 9) I was being chased by 3 bile titans and 4 chargers half the mission but I can say it is doable as a duo me and my friend managed to extract (barely) but the best advice I can give is that your objective is your mission not just killing all them they are put there to waste your time and distract you nothing more
The higher you level the difficulty, the more you get (good) stress and fun!
How were you able to get in a match with a rando? Quick play isn't working for me at all right now 😢
@MagnaDroid1 as a pc player I can't confirm this but from what I have seen ps5 servers are struggling but the devs are aware and fixing it (take it all with a grain of salt as this was reddit info not from an official source)
Bro really recommended muting your allies and going off on your own, this video was made by a terminid stalker
Jajajajaja
So fax. These terminids 100% developed some creepy shit. Bile belchers, bile titans, chargers, those bullet proof face ones, the damn stalkers. They are insane for only being damn organic. Not even the Automatons have invisibility and it’s an AI. Although most of them fuckers are bulletproof
To be fair going off on ur own is good because u pick up stuff for you team and yourself that they might've not gotten.
But yeah i agree on the muting part
Look out for radar towers. You can go there, do the side-objective and it will show ALL explorable bits on the map.
I was about to comment this. Figured that out last night. Another tip if you bring up your map at the top left it tells you how many samples are available in that mission.
Here's a hot tip: If someone on your team is dead and you're also about to be dead, call in a Reinforce strategem but then just hold it, don't throw it. When you die, your corpse will drop the Reinforce strategem and it will call all team members back... including YOU!
Thats more of a helldivers 1 strat. If everyone dies at once and you have lives left it calls in the team automatically now. You can’t lose unless you run out of lives.
You don't need to do that, if you all die, you will all respawn regardless of if you're holding one, as long as you still have enough reinforcements remaining.
Nope
Ah, the days of the original Helldivers :D
@@artemisldsthe good old day when you were down but not out and you'd had to throw a reinforcement to save yourself
Another thing that should be mentioned is that you DON’T need to fight every enemy you come across. Enemies in this game are really quick to call for reinforcements, so purposely aggroing every patrol is just going to get your team worn down and killed.
This is true. I like to say the the enemies are infinite, *the timer is not.* it is better to complete objectives and get resources than shoot out-of-the-way patrols.
Up to u tbh I'm just trying to get the 1000 kills something like that since the supply drop is free
Luckily I play vermintide 2 a ton so seeing patrols is 2nd nature to avoid, but seeing 3 teammates immediately grenade or aggro the already gone patrol makes me happy. We all gota learn the hard way
That's an unpatriotic and incorrect way to play. The gifts of Freedom and Democracy should be delivered to all of our enemies.
Ohh I learned this real quick. Definitely a good tip
The WASD keys (movement keys) on pc are also the buttons to call in stratagems so they HAVE to stand still to call something in
I switched em to the arrow keys and it allows you to move while claiming in stratagems (you can even sprint)
You can change keybinds to whatever you want. Same thing on PS5. I switched a bunch of my controls to what was comfortable for me
Oh that’s fascinating I thought it was just hard coded for gameplay purposes - so you have to stand still in a moment of weakness to use a stratagem.
@@FineAssMadness That is cool but then i guess you cant aim and walk at the same time, how do you go around that because having it on arrow is nice but not being able to look around is kinda uff
@@sgtrpcommand3778 oh no, just the control scheme is a little weird but I mean setting the key binds you can make sure you can still walk while using stratagems. I use them while running away quite a bit lol
Advice on high diff, less killing more moving, the enemies spawn non stop, u are just waisting time staying in one place and shooting, always move away and killing is only just to shoot those immidiate threats, if it can't hurt you - kite it and forget about it and just run to obj. Everything you use is basically just to hold off the enemy, and if u lucky they will even loose the sight of you and u will get a breather.
Pro tip, when there is like a horde of bugs on your intened way and behind you is a bigger threat, you can often run through a group of them, avoidng and jumping inbetween, they are often abashed by this mindset and will barely bite you.
A LOT of people dont understand that you get ZERO EXP from killing things. Its fun, bugs go boom, democracy is distributed, but it gives you no other benefits.
Sometimes its best to just KEEP RUNNING. A good tactic is to set the objective, run towards it, and if things start chasing you or whatever, and you have a gattling turret unlocked, KEEP RUNNING, and throw it AHEAD of you towards the direction you need to go. That way, when it lands, it MIGHT kill something, but the second it pops up, youre behind it, its firing and clearing anything that was chasing you but now has been liberated.
Wasting time not waisting
The reason for some players just standing there when using their stratagems is cause on the PC the default buttons for em are their WASD which is also their movement keys. So I changed these to my numpad numbers so I can run and punch in the Stratagem inputs as I run. (there seems to be a slight bug for this though as anytime I boot up the game again it doesn't save my numpad keys for my stratagem inputs which is likely those keys specifically it won't save.)
If you can’t find a match right now try this.
1.Choose the mission
2. Put console on rest mode
3. Turn back on and choose the same mission.
People load in pretty quick after
Thanks. I ll try it. Edit : works like a charm. Bit annoying but at least there is a solution.
can you explain point 2 a bit more please
Did this unintentionally earlier. Lol jus had downloaded it
MANNN...the different Bio forms for the Terminids are straight up bad ass.
These things are so hard to kill and you really feel like you are being hunted. These nasty creatures will flank you and try to corral and push you into a corner to eat you.. absolutely amazing game that it makes you feel kinda scared of these things😂
Just wait till you learn what a stalker is and when you do learn what they are if you see one that means they have a nest nearby and they will keep spawning till you deal with it and trust me they are the most dangerous thing on the battlefield
@@ace3154yeah. Stalkers turn invisible, and can outrun you. They are tough.
@@allenbrown8582additional tip. If u didn’t find stalker’s nest and see a stalker, don’t kill it. If u damage it enough it will run to it’s nest
@@raritybelle6876 sounds cool, but...its gotta die. I don't play around with those guys.
@@ace3154 Not with the breaker shotgun that thing ends stalkers. I think the worst bugs are the tank ones because they knock you over and stop you being able to focus on smaller enemies. They're not much of a problem if your team has strong anti tank capabilities but if they don't they can be the worst enemies. The missions where you end up with like four of them at once is where they become a big problem. Stalkers can be bloody rough though but at least they go down quickly if the team focuses on them like they should.
Couple other tips: You can fire your weapon while diving in any direction. When you are running away, you can shoot behind you while running, but only with one handed weapons like secondary weapons & the SMG. Also there are big dud bombs some places across the map in the ground. You can shoot them for a pretty big free explosion
if you are on pc activating a stratagism takes over your movement keys, so what i did was switch them out for my arrow keys so i could move and call in! my friend told me you can do the same with mouse movements but it stops you from looking around while calling in, havent been able to try it because the game is down rn
Something that went by without much notice, but you learn on the first game, is that the light beacon from strategems calls up enemies that might be around. So if you are playing solo pay attention to this, specially because going solo means going unnoticed most of the time. If you throw a strategem in a group of enemies, even if they didn't noticed you at first, they will notice you as soon as the strategem hits the ground and will come towards you. So keep your distance. Another good tip is to stay away from patrols by always checking your radar and killing (with a rifle) them at distance. They won't notice you fast enough to call reinforcements mainly because it will take some time for them to see where you are. Crouch, lay down on the ground, and shoot.
I’m loving solo so far but I can see how that won’t last long, it’s just not that type of game. I’d love to hop into a match with some randoms but on ps5 quick play hasn’t been working all day. Anyway thanks for the tips great vid !
A workaround i figured out: instead of doing quickplay, try going to a planet and joining a squad directly from the operation selection screen. It works more consistently.
Playing with more people really brings the fun!
They just patched it for ps5
@@brokenhunter9132they just released a patch an hour ago
@@Xl_Fenrir_lXreally? It’s working now?
Note for taking the dropships out:
Only the rear end of the 4 engines are destructible. You only need to hit one to down the dropship, but hitting anywhere else won't do shit.
Some Automaton maps will also have SAM sites to activate which will shoot em down for you within a set radius.
And speaking of Automatons, ALWAYS check if their ECM jammers are active in your zone. They'll randomize what you're calling in, so when you think you're getting a support weapon or supplies, you're actually just summoning an orbital strike on your team, or a sentry or gods know what else. The only two not affected by the ECM are the reinforcement and evac (and any objective critical strats)
Can confirm I accidentally called a 380mm on my boys and had some nice words said about me back in the ship
Crazy discovery was the fact that those red and blue doors you find buried in trenches can be blown up, and there's often 20 of premium currency, or medals. That sort of stuff. Looking for those will easily double your materials gain. Many probably know, but many others don't.
Found out after an ally blew me up near those doors and have been blowing them open ever since
Do you know if everyone in the squad get the premium currency? Or just whoever picks it up. I’ve been letting random get the other one just to be nice since there’s usually 2 lol
@@Zlittlepenguin everyone gets it on pickup
@@Taldorin oh nice good to know. My kindness was for no reason XD
If you make another video add in the supply packs. Learned today that if you press 5 it full resupplies your ammo while wearing it. And also if someone calls down a normal resupply. If there’s some extra you can grab them and restock the backpack itself.
THIS, i was bugged to have this on my back and not being able to resuply.
Probably X on PlayStation
It’s down D pad I believe to resupply yourself.
I'm gonna give you a thumbs up and sub just for the Obi-Wan reference 😂😂
There is also a bunker you can find that needs 2 players to open by pressing the yellow buttons at the same time (seen here 2:41 ) there is also half buried shipping container looking things that you can blow open with an explosive that have loot inside, Lastly if you have the secondary objective to reload the artillery gun you should do that first because it will let you use the gun to call in fire support on the enemy, the shells you load into the gun matter as well, a few shell types are: high explosive, napalm, anti armor and probably a few more I haven't used yet.
The yellow ones are mini nukes 😁
The artillery I've seen is static field, explosive, smoke, mini nuke, napalm and high yield explosive
Honestly playing solo will help you develop tactics and ways to make it work. I've completed multiple Challenging/Hard bug and robot missions solo ( obviously not all objectives) but it will carve you a path on how to play smart and tactically. Now do that with a full squad and you will basically be an elite team for democracy.
If you are on PS5, I know moving the mini map with the D pad can be annoying, use the touch pad to move it around 💪🏽
Biggest thing that will come with more experience: watch your allies' strategum. There arent a huge amount of them and learning how to appropriately stagger them in a fight can make a huge difference.
Thanks for the Tips, very helpful.
Hmm I actually learned something 👍🏾. Didn't know holding x would drop a weapon. I've been trying to figure that out
Very useful! Thank you.
Good tips, thanks bro 🤙🏽
Can i just say I love how some bugs will keep moving even after you kill the. The detail of that is amazing because of the nerve system of insects
The terminids are absolutely terrifying lol. I was struggling to find and open session and eventually found myself having to play solo for a good 2 days and in the process I learned how to figh chargers and spewers (one at a time..two at worst...3 just RUN)
Thank you citizen
Get the guard dog rover as soon as you can, makes playing solo so much better even in multiplayer it's super useful, it kills most of the smaller enemies so you don't waste ammo on them and even with the big ones it helps alot, and grenade launcher is great too, makes medium and challenging missions not too bad for solo play
My fav gun for larger enemies is the autocannon rifle. It takes 2 bullets on a medium and a large automaton. The giant ones eat whole mags due to the target on the back tho.
8:46 on PC, the buttons to do the stratagems are the WASD keys by default, which are also the keys used to move, some PC players change the keybinds but not all of them do, that’s why some stay still while doing their stratagems
You can also use the touch pad on ps5 to scroll through the map so you can still run around while scanning the map, which actually feels surprisingly good considering the touch pad is usually a gimmick in most games.
Great video! Lots of useful stuff in here :D /One of the Devs
Hey, thanks a lot!
Amazing game! Thanks for all your hard work, having a blast.
Thanks! :D Awesome, keep on spreading that managed democracy!@@Schwem
I'm fairly new to this genre and came from playing Remnant 2. This game is beyond difficult when you are starting. Videos like this do help.I still don't know how to summon help, reinforce, or request more amo like other players do. I'll have to keep searching for help. Thank you
Hold down r1
You can change the mini map setting to be able to run in any direction while bringing it up. Turn it to standard.
The most useful video about Helldivers on YT!
Thanks for watching
You don't have to stand still to call in stratagems on controller you just need to do a bit of controller gymnastics and use your right thumb on the left stick while you dial it in.
I've been playing with randoms and it's been so much fun, i cant help but laughing when i get randomly exploded (no joke its funny as heck)
Haha yeah I have been swiveling the camera and running sideways to call in strategums. I think that tip is hella useful.
Lol playing solo my 1 friend that has hd2 is away for a bit, but still solo bc past i checked quickplay dont work on ps5, so been solo just got to challenging lol staying at medium for now lol my first helldivers loving it but yes the grind is almost too too slow as a solo, cant wrap my head around that a game was designed around co-op and this wasnt a priority at launch, but game is good enough, i could wait a few days! Cheers ty for the hints!
For the last tip on PC you can bind the strategem inputs to your arrow keys instead of the default WASD inputs doing that can help move around and call in your strategems at the same time.
Sometimes you can find unexploded Hellbombs around the landscape. Those are still active, you can lure enemies or teammates to them and then shoot or drop artillery on them for a nice boom
Some of us still can’t match make so when I friends aren’t online I have to play by myself it kinda sucks
Yeah they gotta fix that, playing on the harder difficulties by yourself is hard as hell 😂.
Impossible. Solo against a Swarm of Bile bugs was bullet sponge haven.
Turn off crossplay. I’m on pc, second I turned it off I haven’t had a single issue since joining people.
Same bro out here solo cuz failed to connect
Thought that was the Mandalorian for a second. Definitely gonna check this out.
im lvl 16 really wish i saw this vid earlier, good stuff
I did not understand the last one, how can you run back and call for stratagem if there could be a buten saying press down ?
the last tip is play the first Helldivers and have your mind blown were this game came from. it has a very special place in my heart.
8:43 Keyboard users can change it from wasd to the arrow buttons, so you can keep running forward.
Finally! I know how to drop stuff
As soon as you get to lvl 10 make sure your able to get the laser guard dog. It’s a godsend. I can focus on the bigger enemies while it keeps the smaller ones at bay.
I learned something.
I pressed the like button 👍
Ship container things in the outpost stations, throw grenade at it, there are medals and etc in there
You can also use a smg and a ballistic shield at the same time since you can use a smg with one hand you don’t have to use a pistol when using the ballistic shield
Thank you I didn't know how to drop item
Thx
Solo is doable. You just gotta be very precise and know the mission. I can grind out medium and challenging, but you are right. It's faster to do higher difficulty missions with people
I’ve been running challenging on heeth solo with no hud and it’s been hella fun! Like you said, stay tactical, plan your attacks and exits and it makes for amazing gaming! I run the jet pack and hop around like some Boba Fett on a big hunt :)
@@CarlWByrne I want to get better with the jetpack. I've been using the auto cannon and artillery strikes with a pretty speedy boi.
dont sleep on the support backpack its an animal for your heavy use@@sgtflamingo6532
To the first tip: IF YOU DO JOIN A GROUP DO NOT RUN OFF ALONE and heres why:
1. You are increasing the difficulty for the map as it compensates for how many players are on field so while you could be a pro at evading, your team might not and you could be getting them killed
2. You not strategising with them could lead you to either piss them off or selfishly end the mission to early when they still have things they want to do.
3. You get more reward if you all make it out alive together and this is a game about team work as some side objectives requires 2 or more.
4. It makes you like an asshole and a try hard and may get yourself killed running to a unsuspecting friendly fire since you abandoned your post
5. You're not some main character to a story so please stop pulling off one man fights if you dont want to run a solo match
Played with a good group of randos last night. We all at the 120mm HE bombardment stratagem, and all 4 decided to throw it at a charger in a nest. We thought being 50m away from it was good... nope.. laughs ensued as both us and the charger in the middle was dealt with hahaha
bonus tip, check conditions and time of day/night before going into a match (C) on pc, and it will have buffs and debuffs sometimes, one of those being that your orbital barrages are more spread out, this can lead to unexpected team fire and also less effective strikes on enemies in the intended kill zone.
thanks
Hi, I know that this video is pretty old, but the reason you can’t go foreword while calling in stratagems is probably Samsung magician. I updated it and now it works
About the last tip, as far as I know you can't move while doing stats on pc cause it uses your movement keys
You can rebind those keys, which will enable you to move and enter the codes. The key binds are named “menu up/down/left/right” in the menus
Do you have to hit the ships thruster with a anti tank in order to blow it up?
For the pc players: running while inputting stratagems, try rebinding WASD keys to left right up down arrows instead
The first game prevented you from moving while calling support
Yeah if only quickmatch works would be nice
Looking at the footage at 3:33, don't be that guy who starts the extraction when the rest of the team is halfway across the map.
The rest of the team is likely to panic and start rushing to you possibly leading to deaths, making you lose out on the samples they were carrying. And then the extraction will still cancel itself at the end if not all players are near the beacon. And activating the beacon early will aggro enemies to it, making it a lot harder after restarting it as the enemies are already there from the previous attempt.
If you're done with whatever you were off doing, then go and help the rest of the team instead of trying to force everyone to leave on your schedule. That's a dick move.
i'm sorry i did this to you, i had a job interview i had to get to and i was being selfish for once ever in my gaming career lol.
The last tip is money! Ty
The mechine guns base rpm is the middle one so you get to raise or lower rpm
Quick note about spawning ontop of high ground... the enemy can totally reach lol. It may take 5-10 minutes, but pretty soon there will be a massive spawning hoard of bugs making an ant stack on the backside of whatever cliff you're on and then surprise you when you think you've found the most hax spot. Ask me how I know lol
“Gonna be fighting a lot of bugs today so I’d better tie my woobie around my neck in case the enemy wants to drag me down with it.”
what
"It worked for obi won kenobi and it'll work for you" best high ground quote I've heard all day
you should of mentioned the orange and blue crates underground that you can blow up the exposed doors off and get two heavy weapons, two currency items or a combination of both
Solo is actually the fastest way to lv up. In 10 min I can get 200 xp vs 350 for 40 min with 4 people. Makes more sense for early play to get to the good perks
Additionally, you can swap the direction your looking over your shoulder in 3rd person. ❤
FYI the enemy will climb up to you no matter where you are, if you respawn on top of a cliff they will start climbing up or fly up and they can absolutely get to you.
You’ll also be a sitting duck against a lot of the robots since they’ll just shoot you from a distance
Nah, bugs can’t climb where you can’t climb normal. Only fly to you. But where is a lotta bugs that can kill you from distance
The movement issue when calling in stratagems is because of the key binds. For me at least I change the binds for the directions to be the arrows keys instead of wasd and that let me run around.
I'm so happy when someone picks up currently everyone gets it
How do i get that gold uniform , & I've seen different helmets like Greek helmet from other player too ?
Early tip : Explore, when I play with people I let them do the objective and go elsewhere.
Later tip : Stay together.
Yeaaaaaaah 😅
EVEN LATER TIP:
Stay together, but fan out in groups of two , one to take out the small guys covering the guy with the big guns (spear, railgun, rockets in general etc.) You need time to reload these weapons and the sooner you kill the small guys the sooner your big gun can take out the 5 chargers and 3 bile titans chasing you and the rest of the team. I can't stress this enough, get yourself a battle buddy and make sure one is crowd control and one is big boss monster hunter. Also it helps if you give team weapons (like spear, recoil-less rifle, auto-cannon etc) to someone with a supply pack (yellow squares) and have the team weapon ammo be held by the person not firing the thing for maximum efficiency. The reason for this is that once the person firing team weapon runs out of rounds mag dumping, if you need to reload (and you will), the person with the supply can just get the ammo by tapping E on you twice and then go right back to shooting (this is late game when you have so many heavy enemies you need to deal with them fast or you WILL DIE!
TLDR: big gun can't kill if he is being swarmed, always have crowd control , rule being at least one , but best with two. And buddy system! ! !
I can run forward and call in stratagems just fine?
I use to kill big enemy with the ammos airdrops like ships is it still working
I learned nothing i didn't already know. Thanks
i have a question about hangar stratagems, they have limited uses but are there any way to restock them in-game? increase the times they can be used?
Limited uses just means you can only use them that many times back to back. Then you must wait for the bird to “restock” which is a longer wait. But you effectively have infinite of each stratagem.
The whole “limit” thing is a tad misleading.
@@Michael_MW Thank you i was so hesitant to buy those stratagems because of the word "limited"
Basically all eagle strikes rely on the eagle ship to be on the battle field to shoot and the uses just means how much you got till you gotta rearm them which takes like 2m 30 seconds to rearm and all your eagle strikes are connected so if you have 2 different eagle strikes equipped and rearm even if you didn't use the second one they'll both have to rearm I know it's a lot of words but I figured I'd be descriptive in case someone was really curious
what to press to change rate of fire? i can only change thhe flashlight
i think its harder for pc players to call in stuff because the default strat commands are bound to your movement keys. and i dont think alot of people rebind them to something else.
9:28 how do we do this on PS5? Our left thumb is too busy calling in strategems on the d-pad & holding L1 with our left finger.
A fix for not being able to move and call in strategems for pc players using a controller.
Rebind the up stratagem arrow to left stick up then rebind move forward to left stick up and finally change the up stratagem to d pad up.
Not sure why but it works for me now after doing that.
If Owen Wilson played games instead of acting 😂. Great tips!
In this day and age and especially in the Helldiver universe you would think they invented such a thing as a small indicator HUD on the back of your gun to show ammo count...
Democracy is never out of ammo
I seen someone stick a orbital ball you throw on the bugs how do they do that
been doing challenging ops with rando's very fun, but need more of the currencys kinda sucks cause alot of the rando's ive plaid with hug upto me so if i try to run off and get it they follow
you can carry heavy objects like the artillery shells faster by spamming drop / pick up while sprinting.
we call that dribbling, like a basketball, because.....that is what it looks like.
So idk if they itended you to move at all, in the first helldivers you're locked in place while calling a strategem. I assumed it was the same for the sequel but idk
Smashing like button for FRIIIIIDOOOOM
What is the manip for reload a friend when you have the rocket launcher ammo-pack in your back on ps5??
same button used to pick up items, except they have to have that weapon out or it won't do it. Requires team that can do more communication and properly multi task. Most teams run around like chickens with their head cut off.
To be honest watching some videos and seeing where the planet is at in terms of being liberated during the making of the video is cool knowing I’m out there helping
Exactly
Is the matchmaking not working? It just searches forever. Then at random times, random players would join, even though I never did an SOS. Cross-platform is turned on as well.
How do you run and call in Strategems on console?
You can run and walk while calling in stratagem you just need to rebound WASD to arrow keys
thanks im solo. loving it. no randoms for me. out
I can vouch on playing solo; I took a level 3 mission solo and it was a nightmare. I burned through all of my extra lives and the bugs just. kept. coming. Those Giant acid ticks were a real pain in the ass. I keep having to run around, spraying my gun at the bugs and reloading every chance I could get. It was the worst.
EDIT: The worst part is I think I was soft-locked from everyone else so I couldn't get any help the whole time.
Pro tip you objective is the mission not killing them don't be afraid to just sprint past them and also the auto shotgun is by far the best primary I'm level 21 I have used most of them so far so I could be wrong but unlikely
@@ace3154 The problem was they were surrounding the extraction point and I couldn't get enough time to start it up.
@speeddemon7678 the machine gun us really good at killing the tick guys early on but I can't stress enough how amazing the auto shotgun is as a primary when you can unlock do that immediately but other than that I would say just learning the movement of the game like diving helps alot as when your laying down they sometimes miss your hit box also whenever you heal you will constantly heal until you hit full health so don't give up when being swarmed just use your stim then dive again I had to survive for 6 minutes because I was in a similiar issue where I couldn't call in the extract (when you4 mission timer hits 0 it auto calls in the extract ship) and I was on tier 8 for that mission the only reason I survived against probabanly like 50 enemies is diving off ledges and running around a very big rock but also remember you still win as long as you complete your objective extracting is just a bonus
@@ace3154auto shotgun being the first shotgun you can buy?
@porkerpete7722 I beleive it is I think it's called the breaker
