I tried stealthing bugs once….i was surrounded by…passive bugs to be exact 1 or 2 titans and chargers a bunch of the little guys and same with hunters, 1 in particular was very curious of my existence but nothing more…they didn’t like when i left them to extract tho i wonder if i still have the clip Of course I was annoyed by the overly omniscient ai but it was a funny moment so i let it slide

[@Kattbirb]

Now you have to recreate the video with the current 6x spawn rate for solo.

[@Aguy522]

This video marks the first ever time that I have watched helldivers, why? I’m in that MGSV faze again where the Minecraft faze lasts a mere atom of MGSV

[@Kirbyoto2098]

Apparently there is weapon sound value in the game even though it is not discussed anywhere. Energy weapons make less noise, the anti-material rifle makes a lot. I'm surprised there isn't a suppressed pistol of some kind, I'm sure it's on its way though. The KZbinr Eravin does a lot of stealth analysis content.

[@Rysdad1]

Hopefully they give stealth weapons next patch, I saw somewhere they talked about it. Stealth sniper would be nice too to run with the spear and jet pack.

[@thibimarti4636]

There is an entire sound system built in the game, when you hear something during a game. (noises like stratagems, gunfight etc) The ennemy will hear it to and can found your location, even without direct eye contact. The bugs can even smell you the closer you are to them. Coming from the C.E.O of helldiver 2 in OperatorDrewski video.

[@Largentina.]

The first game had an amazing silenced weapon called the SMG-34 NINJA and it's the love of my life. I hope it comes to HD2 or some other similar gun.

[@EravinVT]

It’s discussed somewhere alright.

For bug stealth, there are planets where you are able to cover yourself in mud. Me and my friends think it helps with them being able to smell you because less came when we rolled around in it

Very interesting, I will have to test this now. After the horrors of Draupnir, I avoid mud like the plague. But now I might just return to my home after all.

[@kaden-sd6vb]

I often wander off from my team to stealth, taking advantage of my less-stealthy teammates bringing in drops far away from me to quickly and quietly wipe out bases and other objectives before slipping away from the approaching patrols unnoticed. I personally prefer laser cannon rather than AMR. Knowing how to stealth has been the key to pulling many missions out of the jaws of defeat

[@Shawnedia]

I remember seeing leaks about silenced weapons and that would be really cool for stealth runs. Localized Confusion is also nice for encouraging sneakier gameplay, I kinda hope we see another scout type armor bonus. The crouched recoil reduction bonus + reduced visibility to enemies would be a great combo to see. Though an armor set that gave reduced visibly and increased melee damage would also be sick for those sweet, sweet assassinations. Of course we wouldn't need armor melee damage bonus if they gave us swords hehe hoho

[@GalladeTheWarrior]

Bro just give me the laser sword and jet pack

[@struggler8532]

The first game had a suppressed smg and distraction beacon. I'm sure they'll bring them over.

[@ghostlyswat12]

The devs are iffy about adding a stealth weapon to the game I believe they have a reason for it but I forgot what it was

[@K0RT3K]

So I am not the only pearson that thinks Helldivers 2 feels quite simillar (in some aspects) to MGSV.

[@Gojinhodosmilprimos]

Helldivers 2 stealth is basically Sniper Elite franchise stealth mechanics And a fun fact: enemy patrols only spawn arround the player to intercept them, but they still need to see you to engage in combat, they know where you are but at the same time they dont

they should add a pistol that does low damage but has a knife attached to it that one shots weaker enemies if you melee them. perfect for stealth

[@Zen-iaC]

They should add a pistol that shoots knives

@@Zen-iaC you're a mad genius.

[@Dunleap]

I can't wait for introduction of melee weapons. I have a lot of fun playing as a knight, wearing heavy Armor and Shield. Soaking damage, and protecting friends under fire from automatons. Unfortnatly Sheild is useless against Bugs, so I hope melee weapons or some shield bash to deflect melee attacks from bags will be great introduction for more play options. PS: bringing back the game to PSN not supported countries will be even better move SONY!

Two months ago, I had no choice but to do the MGSV thing when I was on Suicide dive against the automatons with a Level 13 player. He bailed on me with 2 reinforcements left, and it was HIS lobby. I completed the main mission objectives, and fought to 30 seconds left on the drop ship. I'm guessing everyone at Arrowhead are MGSV fans for the sneak strat to be viable.

2:45 Portable Ops title theme! You deserve a hug!

[@xenonnati]

Best way to stay stealth is to wait for the timer to hit 0 and call in the extraction shuttle automatically while you are far away from the zone. And you can make it there the moment it lands, thus avoiding the fight at the end. Protip: when it says shuttle arriving you still have a good 25-30 seconds left to get on so about 2 and a half minutes after the timer hits zero which is enough to get there from even the furthest point on the map
