*How many times have you "accidentally" squashed yourself? Think I've racked up about 3 at this point!* -BoomstickAlex
1 so far, was hilarious - also telling new player to shoot the nukes on the map is a good one
Keep trying I get threw
Alot more then you 😂
Nothing beats not timing your dive correctly when being chased by a charger and then just straight up getting trampled to death
I accidently squashed a bile titan with my drop pod from a well place throw from a team mate
I'm absolutely loving it. Just need to fix that quick match.
Exactly
Yea that’s my main issue with the game
Patch dropped a little earlier to help with that. It is t completely fixed but there’s improvement.
It was working okay this morning.
for now just turn off crossplay and u might have a chance to quick play or at least join matches.
Honorable mention tip: dont follow the heavy armor tip at the moment. Its been tested and currently the armor stat is bugged. You die just as fast as a light armor wearer with all the negatives to stamina and speed. Until they fix it, heavy just isnt viable
It was literally put in the damn patch notes that the armor values don't work right now. Wtf is this channel.
@fallendeus5641 Yeah, but in all honesty, a lot of people don't pay attention to patch notes. I don't personally. I just found it out through other videos and my own experience.
@@fallendeus5641this video is from 9 days ago. I doubt the developer knew it wasn’t working at the time.
@@fallendeus5641this is an old video, calm down
@@fallendeus5641 This is going to be fixed in a few days. Should he make a new video then?
What the hell, this entire time I didn't know completing the artillery side objective actually adds mini nukes to your call-in options, that's incredible
Depends what ammo you can find/load into it. (Mini-Nuke, napalm, explosive, high-yield explosive, static field and smoke).
Yeah I managed to kill myself with it because it was a moderately big explosion lmao
I killed my whole team last night with a mini nuke on accident. I uploaded to my account of your interested
Thats why I randomly get a new strategem 😂😂
The one thing I'll add more about stims, is while that blue effect is on your screen, your also constantly regaining HP. Even when its already full, It doesn't make you outright invincible but if your about to start getting swarmed by bugs, exploded and so on, pop a stim, there's a decent chance you'll out heal the damage or survive whatever's about to hit you isn't an outright kill. Its saved my life a lot when it comes to a ton of hunters that have managed to jump at me or push through or when needed to push through a bug horde to finish the objective behind em.
>helldiver getting ripped open and stitched back together as he full autos the swarm on him in the name of liberty
This tip has saved me on more then one occasion
Yep, and there's an armor in the free warbond that increases the stim duration by 2 seconds. That is literally 2 more seconds of nigh invincibility which is amazing for reckless players like me. It saved my skin far too many times than i'd like to admit.
Very good tip
you cant pop a stim though when youre full hp?
Thanks for having actual tips. Watched a number of videos that were "tips" and they were just opinions on what loadouts to use and "spam quickplay to fix quickplay" or "make sure to explore the map" It's nice to see someone that puts in effort for their content thanks again.
One of the things the game doesn't explain at all, is the Eagle.
So if you pick all 4 strategems as different Eagle strikes,
Say, Airstrike, 110mm pods, Napalm and the 500kg bomb. Thats essentially outfitting your Eagle with all those weapons, so you have 2 uses on each and 1 500kg (without the upgrade)
You can use all 7 of those in rapid succession with a 10 second timer in between each and the Eagle rearm strategem will return the jet early to resupply any uses you have used.
Secondly, this isnt shown anywhere, on PS5 at least, Hold down on the D-pad to bring up a menu to drop samples, your support weapon or backpack, this is great for, say someone has a recoiless rifle, you can drop it for your teammate and have them load you to take down that incoming Bile Titan and then drop it again to give it back.
Lastly Autocannon is a beast, this thing does it all, one shot for bug holes, clears big crowds, quick solo reloads, lots of ammo, and, you can solo chargers no problem. I just sprint straight at them, dive at an angle and then spin and dump the mag.
Legend level tips here.
Having a hard time using the autocanon on chargers
@@abneralicea3225The railgun is a lot better for single target damage. It can 3 shot a charger if you hit all headshots on unsafe mode. And it can 1 shot the robot hulks if you hit it right in the red eye in the center. The only thing the railgun can't do is damage heavy armor like tanks, artillery or bot ships.
So say you have all eagle stratagems. You use up all the charges of your airstrikes. To refill this, you'd either put all your other eagle stratagems on CD by rearming, or else you keep going till you use up your other eagle stratagem charges then it auto re-arms?
Dude! So rare to see a supposed "tips" video that actually delivers. Love it.
This game is amazing. I love the random friends I made along the way. It’s a social environment I miss from most modern shooters.
It's a chef kiss. Amazing product
I’m in 3 different squads already on discord. So when one isn’t available I got team up with one of the other 2
I’ve played some solo and some with randoms/no mic and both have been fun, but a squad definitely makes it more fun. And the players have been cool so far.
I've bumped into some minor toxic people but it's very minor and it's very few
@@HolySmokes-_-yeah same it’s usually just one person though the rest are cool and all on the same page
@@theJaRRoOnE22 yeah tbf it's always one guy in the group who isn't happy because we want to take out all nests/bot factories and they want to just do the mission
4:04 another thing on stims, the stims hp regeneration effect last for a while as well. So if you know your about to take a freedom ending amount of damage, pop a stim. I’ve survived what should of been lethal damage multiple times this way
Additionally while on Stims your stamina remains topped off until the blue effect runs out. I've paired all these with the Bonesnapper armor
@@williamtorres4140 this was already stated in the video.
The holding reload to change fire mode and flashlight should be mentioned in the tutorial mission. Found out about it after 10hrs into the game.
Yeah I played so many missions pissed I couldn't turn the flashlight on and I couldn't see anything in those like super dusty sporey areas
Its helldiver in the one its the same the game launch you in war and your capacity lvl up whit the time in begining hard mission is impossible and when you clear hard mission your next impossible is impossible lol
Wait, there's a flashlight? One thing is "not holding your hand", but these omissions in the tutorial are stupid
Another min max tip about the supply backpack, when you restock the backpack with the supply stratagem you also resupply the ammo for the guns you are carrying, basically, its better for you to use the backpack supply on your teammates and get ammo for yourself from the supply drop.
Totally agree on the player pool. Its been a really positive experience.
Love helldivers 1 and absolutely loving helldivers 2. This will likely be my go to main multiplayer game now for the next 2 years or so. I am delighted with its success and just hope the devs dont cave in to the requests of all the noobs and nerf the game just because they have no idea how to play it yet. Aside from connection issues they have knocked it outta the park.
I'm with you 100%.
Same. This game was only barely on my radar and now I’m not gonna stop playing it for months/years. It’s like crack
Yeah it’s amazing for me my only complaints are the stamina and squad size. Hopefully they get rid of the stamina bar and extend the team from 4 to 6
🫡Kill some bugs this weekend Helldivers!
For democracy! 🫡
5:45 This is a good tip in theory, but armor value is currently bugged and not actually applying any defensive bonus. You take the exact same amount of damage, and have the same limb wound threshold, regardless of whether you're wearing the lightest armor in the game or the heaviest. Every other armor stat works (speed, stamina, every armor passive except extra padding). Devs are aware and will get around to it, but given the server issues taking priority it might be a patch or two before the fix shows up so for the time being you're technically better off running the lightest armor you have in every possible scenario.
Has this been fixed? Also does this affect medium armor? If so, then light is the meta…
@@AssClapCowboy Not fixed as of today Feb 23. All armor is functionally the same in terms of armor rating until this is fixed. It isn't clear if that means armor isn't being applied at all (armor rating 0) or if every piece of armor has the default value (armor rating 100) but either way light armor is definitely the meta.
Been dispensing democracy as a duo with my buddy, and we are having a great time. I'm not sure what kind of legs this game will by have, but we are sure to get our monies worth. Great video as usual Boomstick, gotta get back to the front line!
knowing the game, it probably has at least six legs
This is why I love this channel, always give tips that aren’t just basic gameplay mechanics
Was chomping at the bit for this video... Thank you Alex!
Nice, finally a video that's not clickbait and actually tells you something the tutorial doesn't already cover :)
i’m completely brand new to the series and I’m loving it!
Telling people to use heavy armor... when armor values are bugged right now and do nothing. What a great channel
Those were actually really good tips. Usually these kind of videos really don't tell you much, but this one was great.
I thought I figured out a good deal of things but some of these blew my mind. Thank you for these!
Can't wait to play when i get home! Love your videos Alex, your delivery is the best!
This was very informative and helpful - ty!
love the condense vid of tips. Really helpful for a new player. cheers!
This was a useful tips video. Thanks for not making it a bunch of tips you learn in the tutorial. I didn't know anything in this video until now.
Great tips man! I didn't know I could hold square down. Thank you!
Dude great tips, thank you. I didnt know any of this!
Wondered where that nuke came from! Some really really good tips here, thanks!
Thanks, huge fan of part 1!
it’s a blast…loving it so far
Im really enjoying the game and this was a really good video! I learned a lot. Keep it up!
Awesome video bro! Liked and subscribed!
Great Tips and funny comments. Thx!
Thanks for the seal/SEAL clarification cause I would have been up at night wondering
Awesome game! And these tips just made it better! Thank you!
really good and solid tips here.thx mate
great video! thanks!
this game is so much fun.
Awesome tips thanks!!!

I just wanted you to know I was really impressed by this manouvre.
Good content! This game is AMAZING
yooo the sprint animation while holding the shell is so clutch!
Thanks for the tips!
Don’t tell pugs to shoot chargers in the butt; their butt is only unarmored, you are supposed to pick one of their front legs and shoot it until the the armor comes off it, the weird colored flesh under the armor is the weak spot area, when the leg comes off the charger insta-dies.
Great vid,,thanks man
Love playing this, I played the hell out of the first one and am excited to see what they do with this one, it is a lot tougher, but so fun to okay, especially with friends and the community.
I was waiting for this!!!!! Time to show all the boys.
Finally one video with REAL tips & tricks
thanks! huge help
my friends and i came into this game completely fresh and we haven't regretted it at all. I absolutely adore this game.
One tip that I haven’t seen anyone talk about yet is the Pheromone sprayers. If you see one of the bugs setting up to start spitting that orange spray into the air, those are pheromones that tell their buddies where you are and the next thing you know a big hole opens up and all HELL breaks loose. If you learn what that animation looks likes for each MOB and you can nail that orange myst spewing sucker early enough it will stop the big hole from ever opening!
Prioritize targets people
But its fun to kill em after that
The community is by far the most amazing part of the game! Nothing brings people closer than spreading democracy!
OK..THIS VIDEO IS SUPER HELPFULL...IM SAVING IT!!!
These are all incredibly helpful. Also the expendable anti tank gun is insanely good for lower levels v the tank enemies. You get two per drop and the cooldown is only 70sec. Destroy the armor on one leg and you can gun it down with the default rifle in about half a mag
Anti-material rifle is massively underrated. Can take out the bloaters with 1 shot to the head. Can take out chargers with 4-5 shots to the same leg.
The Anti-material rifle is a beast, man. Could also take out the AT-ST robots with 3 or 4 shots.
Genuinely useful tips.
You should have been making the official trailers. I've been playing this since day one and your videos make me want to boot it up right now!
Played the first game for hundreds of hours and honestly it's one of the best coop games ever. I'm just waiting for the quick match before i fully dive into the sequel but if it's anything like the first game, the hell dive difficulty will be the absolute best way to play the game.
It's exactly like the first one.
And you are right, it becomes real good with a full squad tackling challenging missions.
Now this is a channel that actually knows how to give actual tips and tricks.
Picked it up Sunday it's sold out everywhere I know so can't wait to play it
It reminds me of Lost Planet and Starship troopers
I’m loving this game
Played the 1st one and love this one
I got the original Helldivers when it was a free monthly game one time and thought it was great. Definitely had me keeping an eye out for Helldivers 2. It is so cool how well it is being received.
3:52 "congratulations, you're being healed. Please do not resist."
My best advice is: Just run away or avoid. I get that it's very tempting to shoot whatever you see but even on the highest difficulty you can simply run away or just walk around a lot of things. The thing you really need to watch out for is stalkers/hunters or chargers, and the chainsaw/flying automotons. Everything else though you can pretty much just run away from if you're getting overwhelmed. Light armor and the shield backpack also help a lot in this case.
Just bought this game and I love it!
Very good tips
Officially my favorite TH-camr ❤
Thnx for the tips
I had no idea you can pick up grenades. Thanks for that!
Someone making this game is an actual vet. Heavy machine guns operate like its supposed to. Small squad tactics work. It even jas a carl that allows teams mates load for you, with accurately modeled backblast.
Finally a great tip video
This is the best tip video imo
Good videos buddy
One other thing about the supply pack is when your refilling your pack with a supply drop, it also refills your own ammo, grenades, and stims without consuming the uses any of the supplies.
😻Thanks!
I've been fighting the Terminids mainly just because I joined recently and the whole mission to curb the terminids from that sector just dropped. I've noticed, and it's something that the game doesn't put exact values on, that the machine gun has a fairly high penetration value out of what the game gives new players. This is based on having ran up against chargers, brood commanders, and armored warriors and while anti material rifles and disposable anti tank shots are sometimes strewn about, they're not completely viable and you get the machine gun in training and it's available from the moment you finish the tutorial. But the standard AR and pistol have little to no chance of making it through the the armor (and really nothing has a chance of going through the Charger's armor at the beginning few levels,) but the machine gun in a direct line head on can penetrate through the armor of armored warriors and brood commanders. It's one of those things that isn't thought about much and I'm sure a few newer players kind of gripe about, running into enemies that they can't kill without luck. So the "light armor penetration" on some of the guns isn't really accurate. The Diligence shares similar penetration values, so again, even though the game give the impression that it will only work on light armor, get in good position and you never know.
Best tips ever. Also, EDF is my energy supplier so that was weird.
This game came outta nowhere and its just been a blast
Another one - if you stumble upon a "ammunition cluster" with a cargo containers nearby - grenade the cargo container. It contains medals and requisition
Dove trying to dodge some bugs and landed on my buddy’s grenade. Good times.
😎 Great in thxs.
Played the first game and loved it this one is special though it’s perfect
this is making my childhood starship troopers dream come true! IM DOING MY PART!
very useful tips
At 4:47 you can see the chargers leg armor is broken, few shots to ONE leg after will instant kill a charger and bile titan, works well with railgun to break the armor in 2 shots and breaker shotty(BiS) primary to dismember the leg for quick kill
Genius subbed
The EDF chant got me to subscribe god bless
Feels like the dwarfs from DRG.. ROCK N STONE!!
Another tip bout the guns: go into your game settings, you can save your prefrences of gun behavior per gun (when you hols reload) so you dont have to mass with it each time
Awesome tips, will be using most of these myself. One thing I wish we had more access to is some form of armor piercing that actually does something. Recoilless Rifle, auto-cannon are decent but still seems to take all the ammo to kill one charger. Meanwhile three more showed up. 😑
Autocannons aren't heavy armor piecing... they are meant for medium armor enemies and dealing damage to the soft bits.
Another tip: if you're having trouble surviving in higher difficulty missions, use the shield generator backpack. In only unlocks at level 20, but it essentially is a must have item at dif-7 and above. It basically makes it so that you'll only truly get damaged when you get hit a lot at once. You can casually shrug off even the bile attack of a Bile Titan.
Truly a Dive-like.
I recommend the aurocannon, get 2 on the squad and your armored enemy problems are at an end. 3-4 shots the vents on big turrets and tanks, 2 to the face port of a hulk and it's gone. And if you're fighting bugs, mag dumping 2 entire backpacks can really mess the day of a bile titan. It's full auto after all and prone kick is very manageable. Just don't use it like a shotgun, cause at a certain range the only pellets you'll be firing are you're meaty bits in the opposite direction of what you were shooting at.
Game is amazing. I started on Helldivers 2
This game is awesome, can’t wait to see what else they add
Actually great tips and funny jokes!
