Halo was the first game I took seriously when I was a kid, so it holds a special place in my heart. But, it's not going to become a regular thing in my videos, just wanted to try something different ^^
An odst crossover event would be a perfect way to announce that Helldivers 2 is coming to Xbox. I know Sony is keeping this IP on a short leash but goddammit i want to believe.
9:10 sorry to be that guy but that's not exactly what talking guns is. What you've described is successive bounding, talking guns is where you have a support by fire element (2 or more gun teams) that alternate fire to both conserve ammo and keep the guns from overheating while keeping a constant base of fire. An example of this would be gun team A fires a 3-5 second burst then pauses. During the pause gun team B fires their 3-5 second burst and both teams alternate back and forth creating a "conversation" between the guns
Appreciate the correction. I need to brush up on these types of things since using real tactics seems to work well in this game. Maybe we have some infantrymen in the discord that can help me with it.
We got buddy rushing in Helldivers before GTA6. But what you showed at 9:10 is actually a called Buddy Rushing (USMC) or Bounding (Army). Talking guns is when you have 2 Machine Guns that as soon as one fire ends the other starts for continuous fire. If you ever wanna do something with Pairs of Machine Guns try using the term PICMDEEP. P - employed in pairs. I - Interlocking fields of fire. C - Coordination of fires. M - Mutual support. D - Defilade E - Enfilade E - Economy of rounds P - Protection
Aussie peel or ranger peel is the same thing but in reverse (on extraction or disengaging with the enemy) neat fact the original Stargate series had a pretty decent military advisor and the show actually uses the Russian peel on several occasions to help the gang break contact or exile to the Stargate. Also to the comment OP. I see you brother Semper Fi
This was fantastic. A wonderful change of pace and something i'm willing to see again in the future. very dramatic. Loved the Outro showing the glassing. That was pretty cool!
God this challenge looks like it was so much fun. I wish I could have gotten in on it at the time. Your content is really leveling up with the help in cutscenes and thumbnail! Im loving being able to witness you really come into your stride and participate in it
This is amazing content my dude! I absolutely love it when people set challenges and constraints like this in games for an immersive roleplay experience, and this works so well in Helldivers! I've subbed to your channel, getting a whole community in on things like this makes games 10x more rewarding
Been wanting an ODST style armor set for a bit, and i think it's one reason i go back to the Guerilla Gorilla helmet. The visor is seemingly the biggest we have so far. But my common thing to say to my teams is: we are the desperate measures. Looking forward to the next, Kai. Thanks for showing we have interest in a possible ODST crossover. Would be awesome.
Honestly I think allowing level 150 helldivers the option to become spartan like super soldiers would be awesome as hell, or maybe arrowhead chooses a select few level 150 helldivers to become super soldiers so they become an actual rare thing to find. This would make seeing one genuinely have the same feeling as seeing a spartan as an ODST.
@@xenomorph383I think it should be more like a collective kill count, where let’s say you need 20000 kills to unlock the super helldiver for like 6 missions/2 operations.
One life missions with different thematic restrictions on stratagems is something that should make you rack your brain to adapt and find new ways to complete tasks. This should be added to Helldivers 2. Who am I kidding, they'll just whine that it's not fun and since there's only one life, Helldivers should become immortal and tank cannon hits should be no more than 5% of the Helldiver's health.
So there actually is a Mini-Scarab in Halo. It's called the Locust. Unlike the Scarab, the Covenant version isn't controlled by space worms, but by a single pilot. The Banished version, however, IS controlled by the worms that make up the Hunters.
Dude… this sounds like an absolutely terrifying idea, and I love it. I could play the ODST soundtrack for hours. No map, limited stats and guns? Sounds like a great time.
A lot of people have already pointed out the whole "Talking Guns" thing to you Kai. Let me add another one for potential future improvements of immersion. NEVER say "Over and Out". In RATEL aka the Radio Communication Procedure. Those are Two OPPOSITE Terms. Over = "I am finished speaking, and am standing by for response" Out = "I am finished speaking, and am either off the radio-channel. Or even if I am still listening. Have no intention to answer." "Over and Out" is the big R word thing Hollywood started doing ages ago. And which spread out like wild-fire. Because it "sounds cool". Even though anybody with any cursory radio communication knowledge, would point fingers and laugh at the one who did it. I mean hell, even Truckers follow it, to some extent. With a bunch of extra stuff they made up for themselves, similar to the police. Where they have codes like - 10-4 which stands for "Roger That" or "Affirmative". P.S. I really liked how well you managed to approximate everything from Squids to your Stratagems, Primary and Secondary weapons to something in Halo!
Once we have automatons on the city maps, you could do something like this but more terminator/terminator 2. maybe starship troopers or something else once those un-democratic bugs start attacking our civilian centers.
This video couldn't have released at a better time, given I finished turning the game into a ODST 2 thanks to mods. Generally love how many Halo enthusiasts have jumped ship and find their joy renewed in Helldivers 2.
This is a nice themed gameplay also i think classes with set Support weapons would been nice to pick for the ODST just like the game sorta did in Halo 3: ODST, Romeo - Sniper/Heavy Sniper, Mickey - Demo/Commando, Buck - Assault/any LMG, Dutch Heavy Weapons Specialist/LAS-99 Quasar Cannon(Spartan Laser), and Rookie - Stealth?
Yo I love this challenge! Sounds really tough but interesting. Wish the game offered some modes like this. I don't know if as a bonus challenge or a special server or just custom modifiers or something.
at first I was thinking "this is too easy; just die & call someone in. Found your squad" Then you said no reinforcements. PERFECT Also, did you know that a Halo dev WANTED to make a game around the ODST, where you drop in as teams, to suppress hostile situations.... Yeah; they basically came up with Helldivers way back, but the higher-ups thought it was a dumb idea. Whoever that person was, I hope they got a promotion after the explosion in popularity that was HD2.
we sort of imitated proximity chat. we werent strict about it, but we only talked to the people we were close to, especially in the beginning before we joined up.
@ okay but how. At the beginning there was two of you. The other two I assume were somwhere else. How did the two of you communicate with each other without contacting the other guys?
I had a similar idea for halo wars spartans, with MAC cannon support: Full armor set must be default Black/Yellow color scheme, but otherwise any size is fine (Gray color is fine too) primary: any of the following = Liberator, Defender, Punisher, Tenderizer (must be high rpm burst) secondary: peacemaker (could go verdict, but wanted all base kit guns to be light pen) grenade: Frag or HE Each player must have: Shield Gen Pack Orbital Precision Strike Each player must Pick 1 of the following: Quasar Cannon EAT AMR Squad must have 1 and only 1 of each of the following: FRV Shield Gen Relay 380 Walking Barrage Take the fight against the squids or bots
Dude… this sounds like an absolutely terrifying idea, and I love it. I could play the ODST soundtrack for hours. No map, limited stats and guns? Sounds like a great time.
This is what the real SEAF special forces are doing while the rest of us are blowing each other up.
SEAF are badass, i always thank the SEAF engineers for building SEAF Sam Sites and Artillery
Kai watched Red vs Blue for the skit for the Puma vid and is obsessed with Halo now
Maybe. But Eravin started calling it the Puma within days of the FRV's first appearance.
We grew up with those videos man, halos always been on the radar for his content

Sure what's the discord. I've got 8 years of GWOT tactics that I'd love to teach and employ on these heartless machines...
@@p38sheep Here you go. discord.gg/RskBgTby7H We're all about teamplay on my server, so I'd welcome the chance to learn more!
"we parked our warthog" *does a flip*
Que the Penguin commander "Now **that's** the kind of parking job I can live with!"
They need to add proximity chat
This could be fun and in lore. Just say there where some budget cuts!
YESSIR! YOU SAID IT! GOOD GOD YOU SAID IT!
fun fact just beat halo odst again today
We got buddy rushing in Helldivers before GTA6.

You just awakened 14 year-old memories I forgot I had 😂
That is by far the worst acronym I have ever seen.

BRO THIS IS FREAKING AMAZING PLEASE MAKE MORE STORY BASED THINGS. Man the quality was crazy
This was fantastic. A wonderful change of pace and something i'm willing to see again in the future.
very dramatic. Loved the Outro showing the glassing. That was pretty cool!
Bro, I LOVED this video. More like this please!!!!!!
God this challenge looks like it was so much fun. I wish I could have gotten in on it at the time.

I’d rather it be more like a COD killstreak so anyone can get it. You just need 200 kills without dying or whatever

I love runs where you're limited to just support weapons.
"pulling/trading aggro" and "Being a distraction" sounds like a job for the B-27 "Cuddle suit", Let me at 'em, sarge!
We need a melee video- change my mind.
Those cinematics were really great!
So there actually is a Mini-Scarab in Halo. It's called the Locust. Unlike the Scarab, the Covenant version isn't controlled by space worms, but by a single pilot. The Banished version, however, IS controlled by the worms that make up the Hunters.
I used those a lot in Halo Wars. It was satisfying to see a line of them sweep beams across the line... good times.
"Replacements?"
"This may days into the war, who isn't?"
This was awesome! I'd love some more narrative driven videos based around loadout challenges or synergies or something
Love these meme builds and think this content is great for the community.

Mounts quasar cannon
"Laser up, nobody cross my stream!"
you have a gift of story telling, would love to see more of these....
This was beautiful
Since odst is my favorite halo game this brings me joy : )
Absolute cinema! Loved this
7:07 It's not a Halo game without a warthog run.
You guys had way too much fun, I can tell.
This was a story, something Kai is surprisingly good at.
A lot of people have already pointed out the whole "Talking Guns" thing to you Kai. Let me add another one for potential future improvements of immersion.

Yes sir, a melee centric Catachan bug killer build would be useful right about now! Throwing knives only? Of course sir, wonderful idea sir!
Wait a minute your ship is the emperor of democracy too? Hell yeah
This game really needs proximity chat
Hell yea that was awesome 😎👍
Hey, a quote from the books!
Dude hell divers going in for a super soldier program for super earth. That’s be a story line I want
8:48 : contact drills. You can do that in 2’s
This is so much fun!
It's as if Helldivers was like a spiritual successor to Halo..."but what if it was a good game?"
The Tenderizer + AMR/MG/HMG + Supply Pack + HMG Emplacement is really strong against the Squids.
You don't really need anything else.
❤ Not going to lie, I love the cinema vibe in this. ODST was an amazing game and lives rent free in my head.
Thanks Commissar 🫡
I know that introductory speech...SOMEONE read "The Flood"
Love it
Here's to hoping the game comes to Xbox with a ODST crossover
This video couldn't have released at a better time, given I finished turning the game into a ODST 2 thanks to mods. Generally love how many Halo enthusiasts have jumped ship and find their joy renewed in Helldivers 2.
I'm liking the themed videos. Do you want to try having a permanent mech pilot as a theme for the next video?
Seeing this makes me wish we had custom mission settings.
This is a nice themed gameplay also i think classes with set Support weapons would been nice to pick for the ODST just like the game sorta did in Halo 3: ODST, Romeo - Sniper/Heavy Sniper, Mickey - Demo/Commando, Buck - Assault/any LMG, Dutch Heavy Weapons Specialist/LAS-99 Quasar Cannon(Spartan Laser), and Rookie - Stealth?
0:48 rip my super destroyer
Really fun video
Yo I love this challenge! Sounds really tough but interesting. Wish the game offered some modes like this. I don't know if as a bonus challenge or a special server or just custom modifiers or something.
It is a 100% Super Earth FACT that SEAF special forces ALL love the Saxophone. (fact checked by real independent Super Earth patriots)
Nice!
I've called Harvesters Locusts from Halo several times
well I guess i have something to do now. I both love and hate you for making this, now i have to do it.
I’ve been a hell jumper on loan to the super earth service for as long as I can remember I don’t know how to get home anymore
There's a full covenant mod for the voteless and overseers that released on the 9th. Sound and models for grunts and elites o7
🎉
9:04 i know talking guns sounds cool, but this is just a basic 3-5 second buddy rush in US Army IMT
at first I was thinking "this is too easy; just die & call someone in. Found your squad"
Then you said no reinforcements. PERFECT
Also, did you know that a Halo dev WANTED to make a game around the ODST, where you drop in as teams, to suppress hostile situations.... Yeah; they basically came up with Helldivers way back, but the higher-ups thought it was a dumb idea. Whoever that person was, I hope they got a promotion after the explosion in popularity that was HD2.
What happens when all team members die? Do we all respawn or do we leave the mission?
Have you ever seen odst vs helldiver
i've always bot dived with desparate measures playing and hd2 music off. always great to do
Savage.
[watches democratically]
Help please I need help I can’t play Space Marines 2 or helldivers with out lagging out half the time please help
Squids 🦑 are cute. Squids 👽 are creepy. If they’re not plushies, they die ☺️ 🔪
5:14 did he open the map?
That was me. I accidentally did it out of habit
@ lol, I understand, map is a huge part of the game :)
There needs to be a hardcore mode/ one life
How did you communicate between each other? Some kind of proximity chat?
we sort of imitated proximity chat. we werent strict about it, but we only talked to the people we were close to, especially in the beginning before we joined up.
@ okay but how. At the beginning there was two of you. The other two I assume were somwhere else. How did the two of you communicate with each other without contacting the other guys?
I think what they're saying is the other two could listen but chose/tried to ignore it and not talk until actually meeting up
I had a similar idea for halo wars spartans, with MAC cannon support:
Full armor set must be default Black/Yellow color scheme, but otherwise any size is fine (Gray color is fine too)
primary: any of the following = Liberator, Defender, Punisher, Tenderizer (must be high rpm burst)
secondary: peacemaker (could go verdict, but wanted all base kit guns to be light pen)
grenade: Frag or HE
Each player must have:
Shield Gen Pack
Orbital Precision Strike
Each player must Pick 1 of the following:
Quasar Cannon
EAT
AMR
Squad must have 1 and only 1 of each of the following:
FRV
Shield Gen Relay
380
Walking Barrage
Take the fight against the squids or bots
For the algorithm^^
I've been waiting for my fellow ODSTs to get the chance to play, theres a mere fraction of us in the ODST exhibitionary force
Alright, now we need an Halo Reach last mission type of video. That would be sick.
I wish this was a mode this looks so fun
343 definitely dropped the ball not making a odst game like helldivers.
Bro did this without downloading the ODST armor mod oooooooof
I am nowhere near good enough for that. Yikes
PLEASE GOD STOP TRYING TO MAKE THIS GAME ODST. IF I WANTED TO PLAY A HALO GAME I WOULD
I finally lost my virginity (to my priest)
yo I've been watching your vids and I think they are pretty good but I gotta ask do you have a discord server? if yes mind sending me the link for it?
Dude… this sounds like an absolutely terrifying idea, and I love it. I could play the ODST soundtrack for hours. No map, limited stats and guns? Sounds like a great time.
