Helldivers Soundtrack - Extraction Theme

[@ashj8186]

They should add this theme as an easter egg in HD2 where it has like 5% chance of playing instead of HD2's version.

[@Noisetank2212]

If they add this theme it should only play when you extract from a mission on super earth

[@shredd5705]

They probably don't have rights to this music, to be used twice. Otherwise why leave it out

[@HarleyBalmerHowieson]

Could only agree more if you upped that to 100%

[@Premier007]

How did they fumble the soundtrack so badly with HD2? Did they not hire the same guy to do the OST?

[@Zyfe]

@@Premier007 New soundtrack is just as amazing as original though.

[@blackwatchpilot5329]

Im sad the original composer won't be coming back, he really caught that amazing military heroism in the music. I hope the new composer can match up!

[@bratyihu]

You and me both.

[@brucehutchinson7139]

I hadn't heard that, but I'll be disappointed too if it's true. Where has this been confirmed?

[@outrider8569]

Same. Tomorrow can't come sooner. I hope there's a banger as good as difficulty 9 cyborg

[@romeobenvolio4145]

The new music - at least on 1-3 bugs - is not great. Weirdly, they've gone for almost a horror-game, sort of Aliens vibe, with lots of shrill violin. The extraction music is alright but not as good as this gem.

[@blackwatchpilot5329]

@@romeobenvolio4145 The deployment music and extraction is pretty good, but I agree. Not as thumpy and overtly patriotic and heroic.

[@Seeyan86]

I generally feel that H1 was more of a niche hardcore game that created a loyal fanbase, whereas H2 is (for what it looks now) a more mainstream game targeted at wider audience. I can only hope H2 will be able to leave a lasting impact the way H1 did - at least among us, the loyal fans.

[@blackwatchpilot5329]

Id have to argue, in the current state, HD2 is much more hardcore than HD1 is. Chargers and Stalkers are much more oppressive. If only due to the fact of limited Crowd Control and personal defensive options. Also the addition of stims over regen health. If HD2 introduces stronger CC in the future, then Id say they should be on par. Rumbler, Trident, TOX13, etc made a lot of difficulties trivial.

[@Dylan-xx2tk]

Among us?

[@Merc7734]

It does leave a lasting impression. The Helldivers chaos is still there, but the music is just so Mid compared to the awesome composition of HD1

[@Merc7734]

That being said could i bother you with uploading long versions of the boss themes and lvl 9 faction them so I can play Helldivers 2 while listening to Helldivers 1? 😅

[@shredd5705]

They are both hardcore, but HD2 became more popular because it looks better

[@AmandaFessler]

Unabashed, unapologetic, over the top heroism and patriotism. Some folks don't need any more than this glorious chorus on loop when holding the exfil point until the pelican arrives.

[@daboikeyle1093]

It’s always the best when you’re team finally gets a foothold with the shuttle arriving. The enemy is everywhere, but you load up your upgraded LMG and your other team starts to call in defense and support stratagems. Then the waves come in on all sides but you begin to give ‘em hell with all you got. This is why I love this game.

[@willsilvester]

Best is when it seems hopeless. You're surrounded but then 2 bunker busters a railcannon strike and strafing run appears. You load your last mag in your Justice and ready the dum-dum.

[@Zman14888]

And then the shuttle lands on one of your squadmates.

[@Bthakilla4rilla]

Dude I had no idea how epic the soundtrack of Helldivers 1 is. If ever at any point during the galactic war Super Earth ends up being invaded and we have to deploy directly ON Super Earth, I really hope they'll incorporate some of the first game's music.

[@Grekos26]

Democracy prevails

[@somelolicon293]

Never thought I’d see the day that Helldivers would return this hard, it’s a shame the old composer is gone but regardless still love all the music.

[@Boredfella]

„Shuttle arrives in 15 seconds" - A behemoth appears and you're playing solo.

[@ThomasTheCoolerVersion108]

the minute and a half wait until the shuttle arrives has to be the most stressful, adrenaline inducing, dopamine releasing battle I've ever experienced.

[@Keemperor40K]

Especially on the hardest difficulties, where you have literal hordes of enemies appear out of nowhere.

[@HighLanderPonyYT]

Unless you use distraction beacon, smoke, and slowing fields, then it turns into killing 20ish scouts then hopping into the shuttle. Lol

SAY HELLO TO DEMOCRACY! - Helldiver 2024

[@wills1705]

You arrive and call the shuttle while being chased by 4 tanks and a horde of mechs, you no longer have the option to run so you ready your scythe and the others load their last mag. You and the others call in every single stratagem to buy some time and take out a few of the tanks but more patrols keep arriving. You kill dozens of enemies while barely staying alive. And finally with 2 people left you sacrifice your own life to let the final member live. Leaving a missile stratagem to avenge his fallen brothers. True story lol

[@squidfromearth]

[@karal_the_crazy]

Shredder missiles are fun a thunder barrage would also work if you have a good choke point

[@sirextracrispy5251]

[@sergio24m]

I found the reason why this one is better: in HD2 music is completely procedural and generates itself based off how many active enemies there are. Which is good, but.. this one only plays when there are enemies on-screen. (which means pretty close). Music stops whenever there are no enemies in HD1, and only plays during the epic moments.

[@Ze_Borb]

this is the same team from the credits theme picture! you see the now downed gunner, the one guy got is gun back(altough broken) the spat on guy got his toy taketh away, the guy with the phone was righfully worried about the dropped offensive stratagem, the illuminates, cyborgs AND hivelord have arrived.

[@Seeyan86]

well observed! you can make a fine plot writer for Helldivers 2!!

[@willsilvester]

Best part is you know that's the missile stratagem. Helldivers sacrificing themselves for the sake of Super earth

[@재민도-z5l]

It feels majestic yet sad. It feels like running desperately with a dying colleague on my back. Personally, I really like it and hope to hear it in Helldivers 2.

[@Retr0daProto]

If you get the stratagem game on the ship, it's theme is played in a more of an 8-bit version of this

[@StickyFingers-gu9sr]

It would be so good if this plays on Helldivers 2 level 10 difficulty malevelon creek extraction
