There is no friendly fire like when you're ON the objective, defending it. You're about to call an artillery strike to deny some area, but you get downed and thus drop the red signaling beacon.
Counter point: that’s our theme. In helldivers 1 we were the underdogs, a vastly outnumbered and outgunned species winning battles only through superior tactics and discipline. In the first galactic war we were fighting for survival, now we’refighting for conquest. The song change reflects that. We went from a desperate last stand against a merciless race operating a vastly superior war machine to being a race made of vastly superior war machines.
@@NoNo-xh7ru I actually agree. I left a comment on that video saying something to the effect of that being their helldiver combat theme and we're just listening to it
@@NoNo-xh7ru It's pretty much with each theme. Every theme in Helldivers 1 sounded like the fate of Super Earth depended massively on your success while in Helldivers 2 the factions get more personalised themes (Terminids, being aggressive, relentless and chaotic. Automatons being Oppressive, cold and heartless. And Illuminates being more mysterious, unpredictable and "alien")
Look at the layout of the galactic map in Helldivers 2, both the bugs and bots are positioned slightly diagonally, leaving room for a whole new faction ( possibly illuminate based ) at the southern edge of the map.
@@ridleydidnothingwrong while it's likely they're coming back, if the game actually is made on the same engine as HD1 that could be left over files as well
had it on the vita as well! Kinda funny though because it took the vita a WHILE to load the game so whenever I'd host a game people would immediately throw shade like "ooook who's the vita player??" Still though, good times. Playing it on steam now still an amazing game, holds up incredibly well.
@@engasalbugs are actually easiest because there is no enemy unit you can’t slow down with static charge. You can hold a screen of enemies at bay with just that.
Bro what if their "mind control" is them just "showing" them the truth of Super Earth and it's atrocities in an instant in their head and as opposed to them truly being controlled, they just switch sides? I mean I guess that's technically brainwashing but like with the truth? Lol
@@engasal Well, apparently Meridia ambience is a slowed-down, pitched-down version of one of the Illuminate themes. I don't know whether it's this one or not...
i hated fighting squids the most because of the off-screen snipers, the walls that trap you and the reverse controls, but they had one of the best soundtracks in the game.
After hearing all the HD1 OST's I feel the best way to describe the different feel is in HD1 They're in our neighbourhood whilst In HD2 we are in theirs
I remember when I was playing with another dude on inner circle of hell and we had to defend a launchpad but he droped an orbital laser and I droped a shredder missil, goodbye super earth😥
I remember this time i was playing with 4 randoms one with a flamethrower, he got mind controlled and just incinerated the entire squad.
*PTSD INTENSIFIES*
I once dropped a Shredder on my friends that way
part of the game's greatness is friendly fire stories like this.
That sounds hella familiar LMAO
There is no friendly fire like when you're ON the objective, defending it. You're about to call an artillery strike to deny some area, but you get downed and thus drop the red signaling beacon.
That dislike came from fellow helldiver who was mindcontrolled by Councilmen
Sometimes you can't get confused by them if you wear the bubble shield.
@@dylanprice1978 sometimes you get confused by them even while wearing fully charged shield lol 😂 F..ck councilmens!
Dum dums kills them in a few shots.
@Lego Iluminate level 50 on all my 4 accounts. 2000+ hours total gameplay between PC and PS4. Still playing
@Lego Mist Status update recruit
THEY’RE BACK, ALL HELLDIVERS TO CALYPSO!
You know you`re near to mastering the game when you can execute reinforce stratagem with reverse controls in less then 5 seconds
so true lol
Damn this is so triumphant and motivational compared to how dark the leaked Helldivers 2 one is.
I think we just made them mad. Like REALLY mad

Also a completely new faction at the top
Let them come. Democracy never sleeps!
apparently someone datamined and said they found illuminate in the files.
@@ridleydidnothingwrong while it's likely they're coming back, if the game actually is made on the same engine as HD1 that could be left over files as well

ALIEN SCUMBAGS! - helldiver 1st galactic war vet
We’re so fucking back
It's kind of wild that I was here for the release of this video during the HD1 days, and now we're back here again
This game was amazing online. I had it on the vita and made friends with ps4 players. Perfect mic chat coop, good times
had it on the vita as well!
Kinda funny though because it took the vita a WHILE to load the game so whenever I'd host a game people would immediately throw shade like "ooook who's the vita player??"
Still though, good times. Playing it on steam now still an amazing game, holds up incredibly well.
It still is amazing on PC to this day.
0:13 is why I love this song.
You know it'll be a tough battle if the song starts rocking from the start.
And with that... they return....
Brothers and Sisters; Rejoice for Helldivers 2 has been released!
Just waiting for the illuminates to show their ugly face in HD2 so I can show them some democracy
They better slap a third badguy faction in it, though. There are so many planets that see no combat. It's confined to like six systems at the moment
@@engasal I have news, brother. *they're here.*
+@@kaden-sd6vb+ They have returned...
When you play StarCraft 2 Co op mission Difficulty *brutal* , and you see *adepts* , *Reavers* and *Immortals* .
SKYNEXUS-헤이즐 relatable lol
just imagine a helldivers game with starcraft theme. With all the starcraft vehicles available as strategems.
Helldivers is cannon just a top down shooter starcraft
POV: The alarm has been sounded and four Obelisks are preventing you from escaping being cut to shreds by Outcasts
When the illuminate arrive in helldivers 2, I’m going to load my very first mission on helldive, I’m not messing around.
You will be missed
@@Gmh-my first ever mission was on melevelon creek, I’ll bring a few with me atleast.
Нужна помощь ветерана?))
SES Whisper of Midnight shall deploy alongside. Just give the word.
@@dragonstrike406 rockdrake pfp, checks out
Well it's official Folks; the Illuminate has returned...
When you join a game only to see your teammates getting messed up by a bunch of balls
I hate fighting illuminati but dear god, their ost are so good
They’re personally my favorite. They’re the best training to become an elite. Also yes, I agree, this is easily the best song in the game.
The bugs were so much worse. Illuminate go down like chumps to the Trident and Breaker
@@engasali hope we get trident in Helldivers 2
@@engasalbugs are actually easiest because there is no enemy unit you can’t slow down with static charge. You can hold a screen of enemies at bay with just that.
Well they seem to be less of a pain in the Ass to fight and more spooky and annoying.
this game soundtracks are so awesome!!!
If you're reading this from the future, and you're here because they added the illuminates to helldivers 2, have some liber-tea with me before we dive
I drink liber tea every day already and I’ll drink it when I’m dead, stuffs addictive.
It might not happen at this rate....
Bro what if their "mind control" is them just "showing" them the truth of Super Earth and it's atrocities in an instant in their head and as opposed to them truly being controlled, they just switch sides? I mean I guess that's technically brainwashing but like with the truth? Lol
Someone can't remember who said they add them in middle of summer
i think they’ll invade on Liberty Day
The squids are back
Hey this is my jam as I spam jump packs waiting for mind control to wear off!
To the sky
THE SQUIDS ARE COMING! THE SQUIDS ARE COMING!
this ost especially goes hard if you running for the objevtive while a horde chasing you. its like "now or never" situation
The illuminates have returned and are attacking calypso! Defend the planet!
The best track from a great soundtrack
Can’t agree no more, war song
The theme of JUMPING
TO THE SKIES
GOOOOD MORNING CALYPSOOO!!!
"An obelisk blocked your path with and energy wall and now you're being torn to shreds by invisible aliens" ahh theme song
Meridias black hole ambiance sound is really close to this
Yeah if you play this music as you look at it, otherwise it's nothing like
@@engasal Well, apparently Meridia ambience is a slowed-down, pitched-down version of one of the Illuminate themes. I don't know whether it's this one or not...
The Illuminate are gonna probably suck real hard when we eventually have to deal with them in Helldivers 2...
I'm hoping mind control will be inverted aiming controls only, but fully expecting all controls to be reversed.
Memories..

So many memories

How about a nice cup of liber-tea?
This image appears to have been used as a reference. Especially the tripod.
guilty as charged!
@@Seeyan86 For clarification, I meant the devs for HD2 used it as a reference for the HD2 tripod. Scary shish.
@@Seeyan86 Do you know the source of this image by any chance? Reverse image searching only leads me back to this video lol
@@PanditoPie wow dude, you brought me back so many years lol
sadly, I couldn't find it either... Maybe can claim copyright then? lol
@@Seeyan86 I attempted to reverse image search but only got your video. Nothing else.

I can't waitnfor players who don't use in game chat to kick me for being mind controlled.
When your beating this difficulty as lvl 15
I do exactly that, sometimes even on solo at Difficulty 15 when I don’t get people to join my game. And yes, I am an Admiral of Super Earth.
I’ve only finished one planet on 15 with illuminates in my entire 600+ hours of playing HD1. It was a great group. I can’t solo them that’s for sure
Hydrobius just minding its own business on the map in Helldivers 2
Yeah it was attacked pretty recently
gotta hate the lv 8 area of illuminates ... all you need is a c4 guy and some a guy who spams napalm and nukes lol
SQUIDS!!!!!!
Somehow the Illuminates returned.
I remember when I was playing with another dude on inner circle of hell and we had to defend a launchpad but he droped an orbital laser and I droped a shredder missil, goodbye super earth😥
... man, I want the times when they were obviosly hesitant
I HATE THAT MIND CONTROLS.. LMAO
Damn, unlike bugs9+ and cyborg9+ it is more melancholic than menacing.
