How Good Are the New Weapons, Armor & Stratagems? Helldivers 2 Illuminate & Warbond Update Review

[@preservinglight]

I was there that day, when the actor on the game awards showed up, we all dropped everything to go fight the squids, it was beautiful

[@Claysthetics]

What a moment legit 200k people got on instantly lol and it was the best time we've ever had!

[@jalontf2]

Amen. AT Emplacement hasn't left my kit since it dropped. I don't normally spam loadouts but holy crap is this one the best I've seen: Tesla Armor, Blitzer, Grenade Pistol, either Impact nade -Laser Cannon -Guard Dog -HMG Emplacement -AT Emplacement

[@yengereng9962]

i personally love running -EAT -guard dog -AT emplacement -any red stratagem

[@Claysthetics]

Double emplacement gaming is so much fun. Imagine once we get like a laser one to go with it or something! Fun build I might try it out next stream.

[@Claysthetics]

Gotta get the orbital gat in there it's just to cool

[@Cptwalmart]

FOR THE ALGORITHM! FOR SUPER EARTH!

[@Spectacular_Insanity]

Fun fact: The melee weapons' damage is, like other weapons, contingent on the body parts that they're hitting. Aim for headshots for maximum punishment for resisting arrest!

[@Deadsnake989]

I do think they should fix the bugged interaction with the direction shield and the emplacement. But instead they should patch the super destroyer module that makes turrets have 50% more health, to also make emplacements have a built in directional shield so we get to keep the tech, w/o it being a bug that costs us a stim.

[@Claysthetics]

Omg built in Shields on the turrets would be so cool

[@Nyxz00]

Stun baton cured my depression

[@Claysthetics]

It cured my enemies from having legs as well

[@Citizen13]

Fingers crossed they don’t take away the armor passive, it’s so fun with stalwart builds

[@Claysthetics]

I know, the stalwart and machine gun both feel SOOO much better with it on

I am really hoping for a sick looking medium seige armor in the Super Store. Baffling why they gave us 2 heavies with it right off the rip. I like the light variant, but dang the amount of stims you need to go through is wild.

[@Joseph-mw2rl]

I've been testing the peak physique and melee weapons, and for me they deal the exact same damage on left click or melee key bind. What about you clay??

[@Claysthetics]

Just got home when I posted the video so gonna go look into it tn

[@ShotJon]

With baton and spear added, they need to give us swords now. Maybe they could like.... mix a chainsaw and sword, wouldn't that be cool? : )

[@jumbosizedshield275]

I feel like i get overrun easily with the AT emplacement, or, it gets sniped by the big tripod guys. Any advice when it comes to that?

[@berserkerpride]

Could pair it with the minigun turret. It will keep everything off you. Maybe kill you too idk.

[@Gundolf300]

Playerbase: Buff the AR:s. They are not good! AH: Release the siege armor! Playerbase: I see what you did there! ❤️

[@PondWaterEnjoyer]

the flame turret needs a different targeting ai, it needs to sweep the ground in front of what its aiming at if its a swarm enemy

[@Claysthetics]

Yea idk if they can do that though, when it jiggles up and down it stops shooting a lot of the time to

[@thisguy9540]

How good is your aim diver?

[@Dagger1Echo]

They should add a feature that takes two hell divers to flip the vehicle similar to the team load if that's possible

[@Claysthetics]

Yessir it would fix pretty much every negative about the car

[@ishtarofakkadt.6416]

the F R V has 58L of fuel. but i doubt i would ever run out before it explodes.

[@drscarab99]

They should just make the car weightier
