Making MAX Difficulty look EASY in Helldivers 2

[@Disaster_Tourist]

This game needs the ability to plant flags on enemy corpses. For democracy. Great to see some mech gameplay, I've yet to unlock that beauty.

[@Tomographic]

Planting a flag on top of a Bile Titan corpse would be hilarious 😅

[@majstealth]

@@Tomographic while it is still alive!

[@Niccogamer01]

​@@majstealth shamely if you use the jetpack and jump on a bile titan while it's still alive you instantly die so you can't do the epic space troopers scene😔 Trust me. I tried it. 3 times also. . .

[@majstealth]

@@Niccogamer01 but i have seen people on them?

[@logangurt2667]

It'd be cool if you'd get a medal for it tooafter

[@Jimbaraya]

That canyon hold that starts at 7:20 against 3 bug breaches was epic

[@mythslayer1579]

thermopylae vibes for sure!

[@SinOfDeletion]

Absolute Armageddon, gotta love it😂

[@Syrock1]

That scene of the onslaught while you guys were between the two cliffs in the crevice was just epic. That's why I play this game, for moments like that you won't get anywhere else 👌

[@OperatorDrewski]

This sesh was so clean. That canyon crevice defense goes so hard.

[@iceyice6980]

The Mech landing on a charger and knocking the shell off, I love that...5:15 ❤.

[@iceyice6980]

Also Dinosaur's ->Hell Divers!?!? Would be interesting.

9:50 that lil bugger took your bloody arm

[@Blit_Wizbok]

holy shit you're blessed with a planet without any bullshit visual impairing effects so you can see how amazing the game actually looks. I would enjoy this game so much more than i already do if i could see more than 50 meters

[@Hancho-YT]

The flag mission you guys are taking about is available at lower difficulties. It's called "Spread Democracy"

[@nathanlesgourgues2692]

It's not really like in the tutorial tho

[@Tomographic]

That mission just raises a flag pole from the ground while you defend a point though (basically King of the Hill) During the tutorial however, you are instructed to pick up a flag and deliver it to another point which is a mechanic you never see again beyond the tutorial.

[@Dunkelzeitgeist]

@@Tomographichaving this as mission objective like the Samsung™️ Westie edition SSD would be amazing

[@ademiravdic]

@@Tomographic I guess carrying the SSSD could be considered similar mechanic?

[@xperience-evolution]

0:01 This is the amount of bugs I have every single time I land on a Planet.

[@nicholasmarsh3617]

Exactly what i was thinking

[@DJMarcO138]

Yeah, 100%...especially the last few days.

[@appropriate-channelname3049]

It’s because you keep running around and you’re not plugging the the breaches as they come. On bug planets especially your team shouldn’t split up to much because it also increases the area bug breaches can spawn

[@NoNo-xh7ru]

@@appropriate-channelname3049completely untrue. Whenever a bug breach or bot drop occurs a timer starts before which another cannot happen. The length of the timer decreases as difficulty increases which is part of why people struggle as they move up on difficulties as you need to wipe out enemies faster to avoid facing wave after wave of reinforcements. If someone is fighting a bug breach on the other side of the map a bug breach cannot also happen where you are, or anywhere else for that matter, until the timer is up.

[@muzman486]

Almost 200 hours here. I feel like people are sleeping on how good napalm strike is against bugs if used right.

[@Robin00607]

i use gas strike on breaches its realy good against the littel ones befor i played napal but after getting 500kilo i swaped

[@Niccogamer01]

Tbh almost everything that contains fire is useful against bugs no matter the size of them. But i also agree with them about customized mechas with specialities like a flamethrower or a Shield. So they could be more useful against automatons but i think they are still pretty good as they are now

[@Tema2kyboi]

What button is melee for mech

[@andrewnordstrom8233]

For anyone who may not know mechs can stomp when standing still. While not easy a well placed stomp can one shot a charger

[@justapillow2443]

Seriously?? I thought it was only good for the small scavenger bugs

[@nihilisticabyss]

Tom you the best man. My favorite games you’ve played are Sniper Ghost Warrior, Ready or Not, and now Helldivers. I sometimes put on your older vods and watch them like movies, so satisfying.

[@Tomographic]

Appreciate the support 🥰

[@vincentvega9983]

The mechs need self destruct. that would be so cool.

[@Largentina.]

That also ejects you. And the eject could be a different animation if you have a jump pack equipped.

[@vincentvega9983]

@@Largentina. without a jump pack it just shits you out at the back with a houndred miles per hour. :D

Tom has made some games I never new about so interesting or made some games cooler than I thought

[@Tomographic]

Glad you're enjoying the content, Pez 🫡

[@PezThecandy]

@@Tomographic When i saw the noti I thought I was tweaking I love the content ❤️

[@DSplatter]

Seeing the mechsuit’s dropship fire on enemies makes me suspect a future stratagem that’s a loitering support ship that fires on enemies for a time period or ammo count. Thatd be cool.

[@fatbluesloth5792]

7:14 I was playing last week and a lvl 50 named team killer joined my mission dropped in 4 of the yellow mechs that have auto cannons on each side and the mars rover looking thing. Pretty sure he was a dev testing things out. Needless to say we flew through the lvl 4 mission

[@Tomographic]

No way! That would be Joel, one of the devs. He's been joining people's lobbies since the games launch and calling in new content for players to mess around with before the updates

[@kazukikirigaya8264]

Yo I’m very recent in this channel but I’m already a big fan and been watching all your Helldivers 2 contents dude:) keep them coming✌️

[@Tomographic]

Welcome aboard! Appreciate the support 🙏🏼

[@chamodelosrios]

I once did a secondary mission where we had to "plant a flag" that was just protecting a location while a super slow flag deployed but then I never saw that side mission again

[@i__undercover4826]

yea i think its now a main objective on really low difficulties now

[@WELLbethere]

"see this ain't so hard, guys!" Everyone has a free mech.

[@crispy_338]

The mechs aren’t that good. They’re easy to unlock but they’re not game changing

[@zeffmalchazeen3429]

it is not free, you need to unlock it and if you add it to your loadout, it means that your usual strategems will not be included in your mission

[@funkengruven7773]

That explosion at roughly 6 minutes in is epic. That perspective is one I've never seen before. Stratagems are what puts this game over the top. Imagine if it were the same game with no stratagems... It would still be good, but nowhere near what it is today. The interaction of being able to call in airstrikes provides a level of integration and firepower you can't have any other way. Sure you could make a mini-nuke gun, but that wouldn't be very realistic or reasonable. But an airstrike with a mini-nuke, now that makes sense.

[@Dominus_Potatus]

Graphic wise, Helldivers 2 similar to PS4 or PC shooter around BF5 era. The thing that makes Helldivers 2 popular is the gameplay. No bullshit straight nice gameplay.

[@JackAubreyy]

lol what? This game looks amazing

[@Dominus_Potatus]

@@JackAubreyy and BF5 is still looking amazing. Dev really is doing hard work with Autodesk Scaleform. Autodesk Scaleform itself has been discontinued since 2018. Your comment is a perfect example how graphic, at certain level, is not really that important if it is accompanied by great gameplay. People do not want photo realistic game with bad gameplay. People want decent graphic with great gameplay. For me, decent realistic graphic was achieved around 2018-2019. Ofc if you compare it with Unreal engine 5, Autodesk Scaleform cannot compete at all in term of graphic realistic but... do you even need that kind of photo realistic graphic that sacrifice a lot of performance?

[@joseavila2688]

The mechs should have a self-destruct feature! For one last f-you to the bugs!(have a massive explosion)

[@Syrock1]

[@prodbybwenzo]

How are you that bad

[@frenchfry478]

😂😂

[@cesarsalad5527]

I figured out a tech with the r-36 eruptor where if you dive and shoot close to the ground it can give you extra space with no damage, but if you aim closer to your feet you get completely ragdolled and take damage, but it is countered with a stim before hand. Spread the word as no one listened to me.

[@hyperspacecase1287]

A dinosaur system would be unreal! A chain of failed theme park planets for super earth citizens or something lol DINO’s NEED DEMOCRACY!

[@hayvan89ykt]

Original Helldivers had 15 difficulty levels, in which Helldive was level 12, level 13 - An Exercise in Futility, level 14 - The Definition of Insanity, level 15 - The Inner Circle of Hell. I guess other difficulty levels will be added later, when skill level of gamers is on par. We could say that what we have right now as MAX level is a warm up compared to the future

[@krisgoeking]

Yes I hope they add it soon, I only play on 9 and it gets old after a while for me personally, bugs or robots. Bring this back, as lifetime gamer and csgo wannabe pro back in the day, it can get more competitive and lock on aim for the elements such as the one shot from a weapon like the AK in CSGO and commonly in FPS could add a bullseye element to the game which could drive more players to really achieve the peak of what is humanely possible - more fun plays!

[@R1po]

This game would've been great in the WH40K universe. It already has so much of WH. I want a Chainsword and a Bolter.

[@airfresh1642]

When my mech runs out of ammo I grenade it just in case I can get some damage

[@MasterBeowulf]
