The fastest way is VoiceAttack and set the input speed to 0.4 then use voice commands for all your call downs and strategems. I usually have 2 dropped in the time it takes a person to even call theirs down. Plus you can run free in any direction with full mouse control, blowing things away while calling in stratagems.
Jup this guy knows how to doit. And you can set some insane makros with voice attack in general. I used it in the past to speed transfer my items in Star Citizen 😂
I mean, i see no issue with this. Its the same as me taking a semi auto 2 shot kill weapon in cod, binding shoot to scroll wheel, and then unlocking the scroll wheel.
@@bigdgoriders cod has some single shot semi auto weapons that will 2-3 shot to the body and 1 tap to the head. The idea with these weapons is that you need to individually shoot each round (slower fire rate) and be precise with your shots. Most pc games let you rebind your controls to anything you want. You want crouch on your right mouse button? Its weird, but Go for it. Want grenade on you j key? Sure thing. The scroll wheel (scrolling up or down) also is counted as a button. Therefore you can take the shoot button and change it to your scroll wheel instead. So, the moment you scroll up or down and scroll wheel begins to move, it will shoot. By unlocking the scroll wheel, the wheel will keep spinning without stopping until you stop it yourself with your finger. This sends a large amount of "shoot" commands to the game, essentially turning your semi auto 2 shot weapon into a full auto 2 shot weapon. Edit: just look up "scroll wheel shooting" on youtube. Here's a good example of it th-cam.com/video/seVLekzpKho/w-d-xo.htmlsi=2Fbqqu56n8caQT67
@@bigdgoriders retyping this because I got auto modded because I linked to a video example: On pc you can rebind any input to any key. For example if I want to do something silly like put crouch on my right click mouse button, I can do that. The scroll wheel also counts as a button/input. So, by rebinding the shoot button (normally left mouse button) to the scroll wheel, you can effectively turn any weapon full auto. To give an example with CoD, you can effectively turn the FAL full auto by doing this. The FAL is a 2-3 shot weapon that is semi auto and a 1 shot to the head. It does a lot of damage to compensate for the semi auto fire rate (shoots each round individually) an encourages you to pick your shots because of the fire rate. Scroll wheel makes it full auto. You will essentially have the highest fire rate the game will allow at all times. Just type "scroll wheel full auto FAL into youtube and you'll find it." Unlocking the scroll wheel is essentially making it so your scroll wheel does not stop after you start scrolling until you stop it with your finger or wait a very long time for it to stop on its own, as the scroll wheel will continue to spin after you begin to scroll. This sends a large number of "shoot" commands to the game the moment it begins to spin, making the weapon full auto. This works for any pc shooter, and it's completely fair game and not cheating because I'm not using any 3rd party tools. You could make the argument that macroing stratagems is cheating, but you're doing it in a pve game. You are not impacting other players experience in a negative way... at least, that's where I personally draw the line.
Nice tips! For us controller users, change the Strategem button from HOLD to PRESS. So much easier. Now if they could just let me change the icons to old Mortal Kombat style, like U D L R, then I won't have to use my new cheat sheet... too many arrows close together on the hud sheet.
While i see the treachery in this I can also see how this might aid some helldivers if they are physically incapable of typing them out by hand. Super Earth is an inclusive society and I embrace this
Thanks for this, I had to get a new mouse to play this game and the macros have helped me not completely annoy my friends while I get used to everything. Definitely have my reinforcement macrod and I don’t hear people telling me it’s cheating when they are getting called back into the fight while I’m getting swamped.
The fact that the game loads you in with the native PC controls being WASD for strategem inputs and requiring you to actually stand still to input stratagems makes it fully game on for macro inputs even IF you were so-inclined to have a problem with the usage of macros. It's also important to note a couple things: this is PVE cooperative, there is no PVP element and will never have a PVP element. Secondly, this is about the PC version and PC players. In the realm of PC gaming it's perfectly normal for players to use macros and addons and mods whenever they get the chance. This is totally normal. You're good.
Random idea, but honestly if I could call in stratagrams on PC using 1,2,3,4 and they're accurately represented when updating the keybind I would love that, Imagine revive is 42312 and can actually run while using it.
You could also try Ctrl -> (stratagem code) -> Left Mouse -> Ctrl. One button press would open the menu, punch the code, throw the marker, and close the menu. May or may not be a better option depending on how much that impacts ability to aim stratagems or use them back to back.
As a 65 year old, single-finger typist Player... I have to say that people who criticise using Macros can chew on my wrinkled Butt! Getting old isn't fun and I love these kinds of games - they allow me to feel young and active again. I'm not looking to either cheat or beat the world - I'm just looking to not put my team in jeopardy because I'm wondering why the 'W' button as moved again! 😃 The above aside - I have to wonder why these codes have to be input? I truly can't see the purpose behind them, except to irritate and slow gameplay.
Ha I love it!! Yeah I honestly think it's pve so just do whatever you find fun. I think as far as why they are in the game it is to create tension and challenge.
I'd say the reason why they are in the game at all is because the developers like them. They have had streetfighter like code inputs as a core gameplay mechanic in all their projects. Kinda like how Bethesda places long loading screens everywhere in all their games.
They do that to add to the intensity and chaos of the game. You have to try and stay calm and not rush the codes. I think it adds to the experience, but in the case of anyone who has issues with the dexterity or use of their hands I can totally understand macros especially considering this isn't a competitive player vs player game.
I mean IDK why we cant move when we pull up the stratagems in the first place is such an insanely easy fix just make is so when we open the stratagem menu if we are moving in a direction it keeps us moving in that direction until we close the menu easy fix for people that still want to keep it on wasd
I don't really care if people use this but I'm pretty sure the stress of having to enter a konami code, often mid-combat, is intended as a way to get the blood pumping... we've all failed or typed the wrong code and it's often glorious (calling down a cluster strike when you mean to call down a 500kg) that said I reserve the right to consider anyone who uses this or macros for the stratagems a second rate diver.
I have started to use voice attack to automate mine, found a profile on a forum and have been modifying it to my liking so far works just need to streamline it abit :)
@@GreyBeardGamingYT Voice Attack is a god send, if you haven't tried it yet, you really should. I tried the macro route when the game launched and it is in my opinion faster than using voice attack, but it is limited to how many macros you can key bind.

I love this game as most of my toxicity is towards myself to get myself better and not at my teammates.
@@ivanscicluna2988 honestly with the macros on I've caused more problems. If you think about it, with a macro you press a button and throw your stratagem... All you need to do is press a single wrong button and you're calling 500 kt bomb instead of a support weapon...
@@GreyBeardGamingYT I mean... Just don't deploy it if you called in the wrong weapon and I don't think there's any single strategram in the game which is off by 1 arrow key.
I used the macro option in razer synapse for my mouse. You could use any macro software for pretty much any gaming mouse or keyboard (most will come with some utility software you can install)
I’m going to do this tomorrow. I’ve said this once and I’ll say it again, “the mmo mouse is the best mouse for pc gamers!” It’s the most universal mouse
It doesn't mean that it's a PvE game, cheating is nonexistent because you can still cheat in these type of games. You're ruining it for the other players who play with you in a match. Therefore, this is still cheating. Just like when the time players (in this game) had 2 of the same mortar sentry equipped in their loadout. That was cheating. Now, the only way I can see this macro setup not being a cheat is if you were mentally or physically challenged.
As much fun as calling in strategems can be, at the end of the day it's just an unneeded gimmick, it was just a matter of time before people got tired of it and started automating it.
Macros aside, memorizing the combos can be really helpful and takes skill to do them fast. I've got the reinforcement down really good and can call it mid dive, feels really good to do.
I only have a macro for revive as its used so often its just tedious at this point, however I do like to keep rest clear as its chaotic and thrilling trying to call down an orbital laser while im about to get ganked by 30 monsters.
Make sure we can be alone. *sets it to friends only* Dude that fucking hurts man, casual murder like that ain't democratic unless it's the enemies of super earth.
It's weird you have to add macros to the modules in synapse From Reddit: Along the top, where it says Dashboard / Modules / Global Shortcuts, try clicking on "Modules". That ought to give you a list of installed and available modules. If I recall correctly, the "Macro" module is not installed by default, and you need to install it. Once you do that, you should get a new option called MACRO on the very top menu, where it says Synapse / Mouse / Keyboard / etc. From there you can create macros. Once they've been created you assign them to keys on your mouse and keyboard in the Mouse or Keyboard editors (from that very top menu).
@@GreyBeardGamingYT omg I just saw the macro option. thanks for steering me in the right direction! i have bugs to kill now. Thanks! subbing to channel =)
@ardGamingYT in the past my son had played whit you. but he had to quit. for his study he is now for few months playing dayZ again. i think you now him because i can remeber you.👍friend 🙂 i Subscribed. The biggesd problem we have on streaming. Stream snipers. Its not fear.....
I already set up my macros after a friend told me he did. Still glad i watched this cause i didn't think about actually binding the strategem to other keys than wasd to keep moving. welp gotta redo all of them now.-. works great in corsairs Icue too. I dont have that many buttons on my mouse but i can save them and just "hotswap" them while in the laoding screen aside from things like reinforce that i keep on there at all times. some weapons and senturies i keep assinged on the numpad or the F buttons.
Using macros are antidemocratic behavior but...cool The pressure and the stress I feel when i have to call the stratagems is something that i love the most in the game
Yeah I dunno... If it's PvP I completely agree. When a game is strictly PvE I think everyone should have fun however they want to. In that same vein if someone else having fun in a way different than you, bothers you... that's a you problem.
@@perditionluc WOW currently has built in macros that it allows you to program spells and combos together, that is different than using a third party software to modify your inputs. If you are playing a fighting game like Mortal Kombat is it okay to have a macro that rips a 90% combo? No, your supposed to press the keys, that’s part of the gameplay. Git gud.
i wanna say one thing i hate cheaters and even in co op games cheating is never okay in any game and play how dev intented you to play game because what is game playing someone made world and enjoy it fully not just some elements but at this case i will say it isn't any form of cheating because you still do minigame just more comtable buttons but for macro well at this case it also isn't cheating but same time it is overall hard to say because you ignoring ingame mechanic that gives fun ( for me it does ) and unique mechanic ingame if you remove then it leave other part but at this game macro does't give you anything beside shortcute if you want to use other stratagem well you need to do process again meaning you get no skill or anything by doing this just change keybinds and do them fast / people will respect you doing so and overall will make you better player and person not all things need to short cuted and is not always about you doing x thing
clickbaitish. most people dont have this sorta mouse including me. But I will say im gonna use 1234, 1 is up, 2 is down, left is 3, right is 4. and use my forward mouse button on press to open the stratagem menu. If that doesnt work for me I will go back to the arrows. And no this isn't bannable they literally have it as an option. Useful video though
@@dasoul3710I have Logitech too, but my Logitech software not being detected in game idk why so if I set up macros it won't work, only with on board memory mode I can do it
If you're combating a disability, that's fine... otherwise you're circumventing a core aspect of the game. The whole point of this skill-check is to allow you to fumble or get interrupted. Personally, I feel that you argument of "its getting tedious" is a copout considering you could not played that much (lvl 18). You could have set a 0.2 delay to have feel like to have a more human reaction and still be interrupted, which would be less bad but you didn't. In the end you're not putting the same effort as your fellow divers, so anything you achieve in the game is factually lesser by comparison. Now as long and you and who ever you play with (people don't usually like cheaters on their team either) are ok with it... that's totally fine. PS: Don't force yourself to play if you're not enjoying it anymore... move on, maybe check again later when there's new stuff and the game is better balanced.
I understand using macros if you have a disability or something, otherwise nahh it's 100% cheating in a game like this. It doesn't matter if it's a PvE game, it's an online game, you are in fact effecting other players' experience when you cheat online whether you care or not. I don't want people in my lobby cheating to make the mission easier or hacking in extra rewards at the end, that effects my game experience. The stress of inputting stratagems during a fight is intentional game design, I shouldn't feel like I'm at an uneven playing field with my teammates who are throwing down almost instant stratagems using macros. If it starts becoming an expectation for some people, it turns into antagonistic console vs pc garbage. It doesn't help that currently, remapping stratagems on controller to the face buttons is very buggy, meaning we have to claw to run and do inputs at the same time.
Managed democracy requires innovation.
Imagine if this weren't a game and someone gave you this suit and told you you needed to use a Konami code to save your life 😂
40 seconds in and i already got a call from my democracy officer.
stratagem dialing is a big part of the fun for me. when you need to focus while being attacked makes the game 2x more enjoyable in my opinion. macros remove that tension.

I mean… it’s obviously gaining the system but the feature for calling them down is pretty tedious and very unnecessary.
As much fun as calling in strategems can be, at the end of the day it's just an unneeded gimmick, it was just a matter of time before people got tired of it and started automating it.
Macros aside, memorizing the combos can be really helpful and takes skill to do them fast. I've got the reinforcement down really good and can call it mid dive, feels really good to do.
i dissagree. i have memorised 2 and its really cool to pull it off without looking at the code.
Very nice.. will be doing this thanx
learn the thing, dive, input while diving like a pro.
I only have a macro for revive as its used so often its just tedious at this point, however I do like to keep rest clear as its chaotic and thrilling trying to call down an orbital laser while im about to get ganked by 30 monsters.
Make sure we can be alone. *sets it to friends only*
Dude that fucking hurts man, casual murder like that ain't democratic unless it's the enemies of super earth.
im using macros too, I don't see the point in making the game harder, it's just stupid imo ; I bind mine on F1 to F12 keys.
i have the same mouse but dont see the macro option in pro razer program
It's weird you have to add macros to the modules in synapse
From Reddit:
Along the top, where it says Dashboard / Modules / Global Shortcuts, try clicking on "Modules". That ought to give you a list of installed and available modules. If I recall correctly, the "Macro" module is not installed by default, and you need to install it.
Once you do that, you should get a new option called MACRO on the very top menu, where it says Synapse / Mouse / Keyboard / etc.
From there you can create macros. Once they've been created you assign them to keys on your mouse and keyboard in the Mouse or Keyboard editors (from that very top menu).
@@GreyBeardGamingYT omg I just saw the macro option. thanks for steering me in the right direction! i have bugs to kill now. Thanks! subbing to channel =)
The downvotes are traitors who don't want SuperEarth to defeat their enemies!
Syl is comming back...........😉
What does that mean?!
@ardGamingYT in the past my son had played whit you. but he had to quit. for his study he is now for few months playing dayZ again. i think you now him because i can remeber you.👍friend 🙂 i Subscribed. The biggesd problem we have on streaming. Stream snipers. Its not fear.....
@@Gandalfthewhit wow that's awesome!! Maybe I have him on steam
I bring him to you try to.... because he's going big believe me...😅he working his ass of.....🙃
@ardGamingYT he is multy streaming now and growing good.
we have a party when he has 100k just ype Syl DayZ on you tube maybe you remember
does this not get you BANNED???
It SHOULD!
I already set up my macros after a friend told me he did. Still glad i watched this cause i didn't think about actually binding the strategem to other keys than wasd to keep moving.
welp gotta redo all of them now.-.
works great in corsairs Icue too. I dont have that many buttons on my mouse but i can save them and just "hotswap" them while in the laoding screen aside from things like reinforce that i keep on there at all times. some weapons and senturies i keep assinged on the numpad or the F buttons.
has anyone been banned or kick from the game doing this?
Naw, I'm 99.9% sure it's allowed
I cant even figure out how to do this in the damn tutorial.
You've got this!
Thanks man!
How do this in Logitech g502
Try Logitech G hub. Looks like that's the software Logitech offers.
Using macros are antidemocratic behavior but...cool
The pressure and the stress I feel when i have to call the stratagems is something that i love the most in the game
You could actually set a macro to complete the objective and extract and save you the trouble of actually playing the video game at all
What's the point of stratagems with macros... Dear devs update anticheat to stop it 😕
this feels like a crap limitation for console players who don't have enough buttons lol..
I’m sorry for saying you were cheating lmao
Well he is, Makros or third party tools is basically cheating.
If Helldivers 2 Terms Of Service says it is cheating then yes, if no, then no it is not cheating@@ZethisVA
its not cheating bro, but I see the fellow helldivers distaste. Otherwise very good video.
Yeah I dunno... If it's PvP I completely agree. When a game is strictly PvE I think everyone should have fun however they want to. In that same vein if someone else having fun in a way different than you, bothers you... that's a you problem.
Not struggling, practice makes perfect. This is for bots.
Undemocratic. I have reported this to your supervisor
Imagine being forced to create a second account and link it just to see stratagem configuration options. Talk about stupid
Ew macros for HD looks like treason to me soldier. The only helpful information in this one is setting stratagem to toggle instead of hold
Nah man, this is pretty much cheating. I get it’s a PvE game but this is just lame.
The macros, that is.
You must be new to macros. Gamers have been using macros for decades. You've obviously never played WOW
@@perditionluc WOW currently has built in macros that it allows you to program spells and combos together, that is different than using a third party software to modify your inputs. If you are playing a fighting game like Mortal Kombat is it okay to have a macro that rips a 90% combo? No, your supposed to press the keys, that’s part of the gameplay. Git gud.
So don't use macros?
@@LeDragonReborn agreed.
ngl thats kinda lame and very undemocratic
Imagine cheating in PVE…L
i wanna say one thing i hate cheaters and even in co op games cheating is never okay in any game and play how dev intented you to play game because what is game playing someone made world and enjoy it fully not just some elements
but at this case i will say it isn't any form of cheating because you still do minigame just more comtable buttons but for macro well at this case it also isn't cheating but same time it is overall hard to say because you ignoring ingame mechanic that gives fun ( for me it does ) and unique mechanic ingame if you remove then it leave other part but at this game macro does't give you anything beside shortcute if you want to use other stratagem well you need to do process again meaning you get no skill or anything by doing this just change keybinds and do them fast / people will respect you doing so and overall will make you better player and person not all things need to short cuted and is not always about you doing x thing
clickbaitish. most people dont have this sorta mouse including me. But I will say im gonna use 1234, 1 is up, 2 is down, left is 3, right is 4. and use my forward mouse button on press to open the stratagem menu. If that doesnt work for me I will go back to the arrows. And no this isn't bannable they literally have it as an option. Useful video though
no it's not clickbait. As he said, you can use whatever macro software you have. I'm using a logitech keyboard.
@@dasoul3710I have Logitech too, but my Logitech software not being detected in game idk why so if I set up macros it won't work, only with on board memory mode I can do it
Why do pc players do stuff like this. They're never happy 😂
This is lame just learn and practice.
If you're combating a disability, that's fine... otherwise you're circumventing a core aspect of the game.
The whole point of this skill-check is to allow you to fumble or get interrupted.
Personally, I feel that you argument of "its getting tedious" is a copout considering you could not played that much (lvl 18).
You could have set a 0.2 delay to have feel like to have a more human reaction and still be interrupted, which would be less bad but you didn't.
In the end you're not putting the same effort as your fellow divers, so anything you achieve in the game is factually lesser by comparison.
Now as long and you and who ever you play with (people don't usually like cheaters on their team either) are ok with it... that's totally fine.
PS: Don't force yourself to play if you're not enjoying it anymore... move on, maybe check again later when there's new stuff and the game is better balanced.
Lazy af
This shit is just cheating
ya'll a bunch of whiney babies fr
Hi bro! Is it still working on 08 March 2024? yesterday i used it but today it doesnt work...
I'll check for you later
Macros are cheating.. get gud
I understand using macros if you have a disability or something, otherwise nahh it's 100% cheating in a game like this. It doesn't matter if it's a PvE game, it's an online game, you are in fact effecting other players' experience when you cheat online whether you care or not. I don't want people in my lobby cheating to make the mission easier or hacking in extra rewards at the end, that effects my game experience. The stress of inputting stratagems during a fight is intentional game design, I shouldn't feel like I'm at an uneven playing field with my teammates who are throwing down almost instant stratagems using macros. If it starts becoming an expectation for some people, it turns into antagonistic console vs pc garbage. It doesn't help that currently, remapping stratagems on controller to the face buttons is very buggy, meaning we have to claw to run and do inputs at the same time.
