🎖For Tomocracy! 🎖Watched the entire 6 hour mech livestream yesterday, you and your mates are peak entertainment while servers are full 🤣

“Tomocracy” 😂 Good one!

hell yeah😎

[@danielhubbard3165]

Brought a tear to my eye

[@Shugg-Goff-HHoffical]

This game just keeps going from strength to strength. I've always had a soft spot for Mechs goes all the way back to Robotech in my childhood

[@castolano]

This game is nothing more than lost planet

[@Mac_DNH]

Killed it with the "stand by for titan fall"

[@bf5175]

That dive at 14:54 was a "know your place" moment.

That dive, that extract, that one shot with the autocannon… damn!

[@l1zrdking]

mechs totally need a melee and a self destruct, that'd be awesome.

[@derkaiser9881]

They have a melee. It's like a stomp attack, but at the moment it's kinda buggy and sometimes (even if it's a fresh mech) you can't do it. Just know that you're able to run over smaller bugs and bots so you might as well just run those over and use your ammo for more important targets.

[@l1zrdking]

@@derkaiser9881Ah ok, I haven't played yet, just going by videos and everyone kept saying no melee. Danke for the info though.

[@derkaiser9881]

@@l1zrdking Нет проблем. Oh and I just heard it’s the mission stratagem mech that’re unable to melee. So if you unlock the mechs it should work every time.

[@WhatchaGot2Say]

Your stream was epic my bro! Your bravery did not go unrecognized 💪🏽

[@TheSomeRocks]

for the fabricators, you can also throw the grenade or shoot the Exosuit rocket in the door while the door is open and the Automatons are exiting it.

[@ryean8212]

So if you have Impact grenades on and you're fighting bots, I'd recommend tossing your nades on the door rather than the vents, you might have to deal with 2 or 3 bots that walk out but at least you won't waste more than one nade trying to hit the fabricator

[@Tomographic]

Trueeee

[@abscond95]

Stream was insane yesterday Tomo 🔥🔥 Soo good to see a regular game on the main channel 🫡🧡

[@itspizzatime8622]

yet another amazing hell divers 2 video, i absolutely love this series.

[@kiekeyz]

The explosions in this game sound so powerful. it has that THUMP! that i love with explosions.

[@croatoansounds]

I’m always amazed by the sound too haha, some of those base explosions (especially against the robots) are SO HUGE. Visually they blow me away too, they can reach so high into the sky, and span like, the whole horizon haha

[@siddharthpandian7289]

🔥thanks for always getting us such amazing content 🔥

[@bartell20j]

The point you made in the beginning was my point. My answer to people's crying about railguns was " were are getting mechs!"

[@jaywerner8415]

It's a "skill issue". Although having to charge the rail gun to the point of exploding to do what it did before.... that is a bit much. Most will probably blow themselves up.

[@tommelling9847]

@@jaywerner8415 Skill issue exactly, too many farmers crutching on the railgun, seemed too easy/no point in running anything else before. Now has a better risk-reward gameplay.

[@agifrandysky2839]

​@@jaywerner8415That is quite literally skill issue.

[@paranoia0like0hell]

​@@tommelling9847 yeah. The state of the railgun forced you to use it and that is exactly what balance patches are for. You should not feel obligated to use one specific weapon in every single scenario because that is what kills variety and fun. It's like having ha shitty XP farming spot in an MMO where you do nothing but wait for 10 minutes until a specific mob spawns and then oneshot it. No one has fun but everyone does it because you get XP 10 times faster than with normal fun gameplay. That's what patches are for and they did a good job leveling the ground on the support weapons

[@AnthonyNiceGuy]

I think the punisher shotgun is criminally underrated. To be able to reload per round in between shots allows you to keep up the fight without having to run away to reload and conserves ammo. Slower rate or fire for sure but it's balanced out with superior damage. A skilled Helldiver is a damn surgeon with the punisher shotgun.

[@JustPablo5000]

I was playing and watching you yesterday haha i haven't done that in a long time

[@stevenbaker2560]

They could do a complete remake of Meachassault and include it in this game lol

[@codexstudios]

The second I drop one of those exosuits I'm putting on the Tundra combat theme from Mechassault. It's just too perfect

[@croatoansounds]

I feel like this game could have SO many other types or styles of games built into it over time haha. Even strategy game style, could have some gameplay where you direct forces from orbit, top down view… maybe while allies on the ground battle too, that would be wild, as they expand the number of players

[@ka1Zhi]

Fans: Gimme back my railguns!! Dev: But but but......we've got mechs!!

[@JSSMVCJR2.1]

Literally.

[@clashcon11]

"Standby for TitanFall" - Tomo in HellDiverII.

[@grimmjowvsjaggerjack]

13:10 It feels weird to see the mech suddenly blowing up in these sorts of situations. I know that the smoke surrounding it is an indicator to jump ship. But in the first game, unless your entire mech was crushed by something, you would have an animation of it stopping to function and catching on fire. Leaving you just enough time to exit before it explodes. The sudden explosion is slightly jarring to me and partially removes the feeling of safety of being in a mech, in my opinion. Not a big concern by any mean, but I wonder if others might feel that way too.

[@Tomographic]

I agree. It's far too sudden currently

[@EdwardHarrison.]

Agreed. And they are far to niche too.

[@mikkostratos5177]

hahaha!!! at 20:35 I thought you called in the airstrike so fast that my eyes didn't catch the arrows, I made sure with slow motion, and yet couldn't see it, I googled how to call in airstrike with just a marker, and nothing... so 20 minutes later, while starting to feel like a SuperBeginner I noticed the blue guy calling it earlier and the laser just happened to land at the same time as your marker hahaha!!! XD

[@PratikGhone]

That ending!

[@vascodgama]

start: 00:00 end: 26:33

[@jjayala5512]

mid: 13:16

[@Officer_K.]

I've been waiting for a game like this for many years, to be honest, we've all been waiting for something like this. if they try to keep this game alive with nice logical updates, it can even become a cult in its field that will be played for many years...

[@deadeyecpt.7765]

We had tanks and APCs in the first game as well, I think at some point we will see them in this one too.

[@JSSMVCJR2.1]

The mechs are good evidence that they're going serious with the roleplaying.

[@mufasawright9399]

“Heard, understood, acknowledged game” The most American I’ve heard Tom sound 😂

[@dokkie9979]

the drop ships at 10:07 blow up if you shoot the engine once, atleast thats the case with expendable AT and recoilless, im not 100% sure how many mech rockets it takes. i would assume also just one

[@SpyrosAdventures]

I have coined the term silver chicken drumstick for the super sample rock. If you've heard that or something along those lines you're welcome lol

[@Echoes265]

It is great at the End when wait for the take off and huge ammounts from bucks come against you.

[@benballard-ho7tu]

Those mechs are awesome! I wonder if they're adding an overwatch mode later down the line? It'd be great for when you have to vacate the mech and grenade a fabricator. Essentially just a massive automated turret emplacement... 😁

[@greenrithley5577]

A self-destruct will be useful in this mech

[@eskriller1735]

Absolutely love the Titanfall mention

[@Robbinio2]

Might be a bit late and you may have figured this out already, but Mechs can Meele, was shocked when I figured it out, more of a "Stomp" attack, but useful if you're being overwhelmed by smaller enemies (02:08)!

[@hop-skip-ouch8798]

You can melee in mechs. I saw someone demonstrate on a charger. Don't know how though.

[@MixMeister5000]

You can escape bait chargers with your mech when the ammo is all out. They get stunned and can kill themselves if you hop out last second.

[@tudorcostea4006]

As a Titanfall veteran.... *smashes card on table*

[@LylasFightclub]

I think Draupnir has my favourite biome so far

[@user-xw3sx4by4g]

0:09I like that he can ride in a battle mech

[@Captiankap24]

You can melee in the mech. But it’s a stomp like the scout striders do when you’re close to them on foot.

[@johnclaudetaylor5224]

I hope we can buy upgrades for the mechs. a little later booster would be awesome and a re arm system of some sort, should also have an AI version where you can use it like titan fall and have it fight when you are out of it.

[@fearan9406]

Iv been edging at the thought of dual auto cannon mech

[@jaywerner8415]

I,m waiting for people to react to the lumberjack. Flamethrower and at cannon combo.

[@AakashM001]

Hey nice video dude...What settings are you using btw? Graphics look very sharp and clean..

[@Tomographic]

Max everything but the 4K bitrate on KZbin definitely helps!

[@tomyorke3412]

For the creek! Even in death, I still serve

[@ingerasulffs]

The Omnissiah

[@Suzuki_Hiakura]

Curious if Mechs will require an upgrade in the ship to get... or maybe an upgradeable one with different weapon options like two rocket pods or two gatlings or even less armor to make it a bit faster...

[@draakje_r5841]

you know what whould be dope if you could customize your mech so you could have barrage or homing

[@patrickgideon8584]

This is a person who understands that this game isn't all about shooting every enemy you see. Funny how he isn't getting swarmed and overwhelmed...

[@TheMightyFleming]

Bro a Game built like this with the Gantz manga story and theme would be wild, considering their "mech suits" are powerful as fuck 😮

[@jossypoo]

You can also explode the fabricator by shooting into the open door

[@bluelambda]

they are quite fun a powerfull. i just wish we could see the mechs health bar when we enter it. because i have blown up so many times due to not being able to see the thing is smoking lol

[@abysswatcher9172]

Marauders are just those infantry with the bulky jump packs

[@jaybonpc]

such a good update. The server issues yesterday were rough however 😅

[@ericjeker]

They still have some pretty bad days indeed. 😅

[@bodivanbodivan3668]

Looks like if you get killed in the mech your ammo auto replenishes upon recall. I noticed your ammo was at max when you recalled it.

[@babakoosaw]

GGs tom. i think when you're in a Mech and it is getting destroyed. it should automatically eject you to give you a fighting chance.

[@I3ordo]

My brand new mech got one-shot destroyed by my squaddie's guarddog laser beam. Normally that thing has to beam the critters (smallest bugs)for 250 ms to take it down but when it comes to friendly fire, a 100ms long beam on the back door of the mech can be enough...

[@urbanapache2]

I dunno if its bugs, but my mechs have been randomly exploding on terminid levels, and basically anytime useless team mates are around.

[@mateuszfelisiak480]

I wish at least those mechs would drop like in Titanfall. Of course in Helldivers manner, in big metal bullet opening after impact. Maybe they thought it would be too op. And probably that's how all other vehicles will get delivered, so they made it consistent. But titanfall tho man, that would be so epic every time!

[@adamdurham16]

Guhh this game is so good. Out of nowhere honestly. I played a lot of hell divers. So I was kinda turned off when I saw launch trailers for this because it was so different. So it releases and man… it is everything I wanted in a video game with guns and war. It is amazing.

[@redfalcon8062]

12:55 You can melee. I'm on controller, so it's R3. Not sure about PC. Also it sometimes doesn't work

[@andrewgan6084]

if mechs were introduced to game, then we need to see what new gigantic enemies will the dev be introducing next

[@DragonSkyShadow]

U can destroy Fabricators if u shoot the open door ( explosive ) or even with impact grenade , just dont hit the robot that comes out !

[@RickyMrclg0]

So is there a level cap system in this game ( I don’t have any console atm 😢)

[@MrYZ200]

0:27 carnage? it's liber-tea!

[@JSSMVCJR2.1]

Better than PG-Tips.

[@davidfrade916]

could u do something with more details about the server progression? xP

[@MrSHADOWANGEL999]

Prepare for mechafall

[@FatalFist]

I feel they gotta increase the duration of overload for the Railgun because the Anti-Material Rifle fricken owns.

[@pistolmen1]

Im loving the game, its loads of fun. I just wish i could play with everything on max settings, your footage looks gorgeous!!! In 1440p medium settings it looks kinda foggy 🥲

[@devinpledger2251]

Looks great on my ps5

[@F4ngel]

Even in death I serve

[@castolano]

For those of you that don't know Hell Divers is nothing more than Lost Planet with a different main character. These angry grasshoppers are the same exact creatures you had to fight all 3 games. You had more access with the mechs you got to take off guns parts and use them and swap out gun parts.

[@nathanielcockayne2376]

Maybe campaign for the ability to restock your mech at a resupply dump? Just feel like 15 rockets and 800rnds isnt enough to do a quarter of a mission 😅

[@Bmaxwellaz]

I just hope they add more mech types or even customization, I just want to use an oversized flamethrower on bugs.

[@songhunter93]

helldiver 1 have tanks..so yeah

[@roccoblue9224]

Does anyone else wonder what them blue screens are facing the armoury? Do you think they will be used for anything?

[@lhellhammer]

Mechanics are terminid killers but are fodder on the terminator side.

[@skadoodle8503]

they should add loadouts to mechs, so you can go full 40k warhammer dreadnought

[@albatross8868]

Something ive noticed is that at 8 and 9, the mechs really dont do much in terms of thinning numbers.

[@SgtIronbeak]

My one issue is EXOs being... way squisher than they should be. I mean, I get it, you gotta be careful at all times. But come on. A small breeze blows it up.

[@thedognextdoor4329]

There is a keybind for melee on the mech its F by default I think, it does a stomping animation

[@Tomographic]

It's bugged on PC sadly and doesn't work 😢

[@thedognextdoor4329]

@Tomographic Oh really? My friend showed me it in game yesterday and it worked fine for me! (Were both on PC btw)

[@imbangmaynn5705]

You legit sound like Henry Cavill

[@mckinleyfisher-lynd3896]

I think mele is maybe bugged? I played one match with a mech and it would stomp when i pressed F but the next game it only worked once and then wouldnt do it anymore

[@xSabir-hc7wj]

just need to be able to pilot fighter jets, for arial dogfights against dragonfly enemies

[@genin69]

the 2 little german flags on the back of the mechs are sher gut

[@tysonvienneau1830]

We will retake Malevelon Creek, brothers

[@HoopleHeadUSA]

Would love to see a stealth run. As much as possible lol

[@Tomographic]

I'll do my best!

[@Saktoth]

Helldivers 1 players know that when the mech runs out of ammo you just run around stomping on people until it blows up,, which is a free bomb.

[@Iahusha777Iahuah]

@10:00 its one rocket into the engine

[@epochgames3049]

Why at 8:00 minutes in did the timer cut 10 seconds off? Is this not all straight gameplay? Its spliced videos to seem as 1?

[@HalIOfFamer]

They are great against bugs but fall short against bots. They need a durability buff or armor like the hulks have.

[@Sir-Raph]

Honestly those slugs should at least be able to one-shot the chainsaw guys. Most guns need to be buffed.

[@Tomographic]

They can if you land the headshot, it's just a bit tricky.

[@Erwincm33]

how do you move around when you call in stratagems?

[@Tomographic]

Rebind them to arrow keys so you can still move with WASD

[@adamheeley285]

Has anyone gotten a hold of the road map for this game over the next few years? It seems like they have tons of stuff they want to add to this game over time.

[@fmgee_]

They're still revising it; with the success of the game, they decided to tweak it a bit. But I would look at the 1st game for clues.
