One of my crew, feeling ill and having had too much to drink, took this to a Bots mission. He is not a marksman nor our top killer, and that night he was blasting a VTuber stream in place of the gane audio. Somehow, he had the highest accuracy, shots fired, and kills of all of us by a large margin. I think he got posessed by the spirit of democracy itself that night.
3:02 can we get a re-upload to right this one mis-naming and the re-upload is exactly the same but "liberator" is replace with a voice-clip of you saying "constitution" in the most dead pan way you can
For maximum fun, engage the magazine cutoff and reload after every shot. Use the magazine only in close range. The Constitution is an awesome weapon to use if you let melee be your main mode of damage. I fell back to my Gunz training by unleashing the butterfly-slash+shot-punch chain to secure huge amounts of kills. You can use dodge to cancel out the melee animation to keep moving. Gunz Veterans, we have just found a game where K-Style can be applied, and rewards us for good execution.
I saw a guy using it and the Anti Material Rifle, and I didn't see him using the AMR Much, mostly just the Springfield, and the only fucking reason I got more kills than him was because I was using Eagle Stratagems and the Scorcher. If he had a gun with a scope, there wouldn't be an Automaton front to fight on
There is a faint possibility that was me. I have been playing with jetpack, AMR, and Constitution. Mostly use the constitution and senator, and I've generally been top accuracy and near/top kills.
The funny thing about the Constitution is that if it was added in the first couple of months it probably would've been one of the best primaries in the game just because of it having medium pen
Its a marksman rifle, your main advantage is range. You need to make sure your properly spacing yourself from your targets. Too close and your going to get swarmed. Too far and you can't hit anything. The more accurate you are with the gun the more space you can give yourself for reloading and repositioning. The cool part about the gun is player skill is what determines how far away you can shoot from. the bayonet is really nice for lighter targets if you need to mop of a few stragglers. The weapon is surprisingly powerful as long as you learn how to use it.
The problem is practically EVERY SINGLE HELLDIVER YT'er is ABSOLUTE ASS at actual marksmanship. Seriously. Not a single one can use this gun properly which is why they all say it's trash. No, you're just trash at the game. I had to qualify with iron sights at ranges that in-game would be halfway across the map when I was in the service. I haven't been in for almost 15 years and I can still hit targets with this weapon almost that far out.
i mean you're really putting in a lot more work just to do what the other two do with better fire rate, more ammo, and faster reloading. It's.. fine, but being good with the constitution just means you'd be better with the other 2 marksman rifles
@@warmchoccy As a Diligence Main on the bot side... no. It really doesn't mean that at all. Volume of fire is only a benefit in close quarters where a miss means life or death so the next round needs to be immediately available. Even the other marksmen rifles don't perform well in CQB when being swarmed under. Ironically the Consitution's melee damage over performs compared to all other melee 'attacks' meaning it's actually the better weapon when you're being swarmed under. "The advantages of a Knife is that it's silent, doesn't jam, and doesn't run out of ammo." If you're actually doing your job as a marksman, the enemy is dead LONG before they close on you where volume of fire is an advantage over accurate, well-placed shots. If they've closed the distance with you, you've failed in your ONE JOB. The Bug doctrine is this exact method. They swarm you with so many light units you'll run out of bullets before they run out of bodies. You can still take a marksman weapon against them but you're going to be constantly running away to gain distance in order to reload as opposed to a true volume of fire weapon like the MG or the Stalwart. ARs do better in burst fire mode here. Bots are the opposite. They run fewer units per patrol/dropship but those units are better armored, better quality, and engage at range. Marksman weapons SHINE here since they have the raw damage and AP per shot that ARs can't achieve without volume of fire. This means the Bots have the range advantage on you with ARs and Shotguns. But Marksmen weapons have the range advantage and stopping power at a distance on them. Plus with fewer units coming at you, it's easier for you to drop the bots with a lower count magazine long before they close the distance. It's about knowing your enemy, knowing how they fight, and picking the right tool for the right job. But everyone wants to be lazy and have the 'magic anti-everything bullet for EVERY job'.
@@graveyardshift6691Best breakdown of the Constitution and marksmen rifles I’ve read. I love the Constitution. The HD2 community is obsessed with stats and meta weapons and can’t comprehend the simplicity of the Constitution and how good it is.
Constitution 2, (or maybe the Super Constitution) Stripper Clip Bayonet is energized like Bot Commissar blades, giving it High AP and more damage, with a chance to set on fire Retro firing mechanism upscaled for Modern Super Earth standards, aka either Heavy armor pen or more damage Most Important buff: Despite using a stripper clip, automatically discharges the clip and casing after the last bullet, producing an M1 Garand type ping.
The constitution also has a neat little feature where if your friends punch you for the funny, you can easily respond in kind with higher range, damage, and potential to cause injury/bleeding
I was having some fun with this using a melee buold, Shield Pack, stun grenades, and the Peak Physique armors and you can charge small hordes of chaff and even take down Chargers with the bayonet in a leg.
I want the Break Action as a strat I can select now. Put it out in time for Thanksgiving. That way, I can go full Farmer Freedom mode with the Constitution, Senator and the Break Action, which I would name The President. Do it AH, I need this
Every time I bring the Constitution on a dive; I blackout and the spirit of Lady Liberty posesses me. My team mates are left stunned by what my Democracy infused body does with this weapon in my hands during these freedom infused battle trances. I am told I bayonet charged a tank, and my fellow divers watched as the tank exploded before I charged into a group of multiple Devestators, landing many precise shots and ducking their punches to stab my bayonet in vital areas. Emerging covered in oil, I tossed a walking barrage towards a Jammer Tower, and bayonet charged a turret position with the orbital shells exploding all around. I have no recollection of these deeds, but I've been awarded many medals and left many divers dumb-founded at these feets of suicidal conviction that no other weapon induces while in my hands. I simply tell them my ancestors were an ancient warrior people from a land known as "Canada" in Super Earth's history, who fought in an ancient battle with similar bolt action rifles at a place called Vimy Ridge in an ancient conflict known as "The Great War".
Finally, someone understands the Constitution. It's not the best gun or even a great gun, that's kinda the point. It's also not great against bugs. My experience with it against bots has been fun as hell. My friends and I brought it on a dif 10 mission, all four of us. We cleared the full set of 3. It's just slow to get kills, but it forces you to fire accurately or you die. It's pretty fun, and I think that's its main point. A challenge gun, rather than a meme gun. I like that.
The best thing about using the Constitution imo is getting in engagements 100+ meters away and popping off shots from great distances. That way you’re not running around like a headless chicken :)
My buddies and I actually found it to be the other way around where it’s awful against bugs and less awful against bots. There’s just too many bugs swarming at once to make it viable, meanwhile devastators and Berserks can be easily dropped with well placed shots.
I started using this in my bot 10 dives, had a hell of a fun time, then moved back to normal weapons and realized I was actually having way less fun with the missions. Its basically a permanent choice for me on bots now unless im trying to do some themed build.
It's just something about the Constitution that makes me want to use it. Maybe it's the sound design, maybe it's the aesthetics, it's just so satisfying and cool. I legitimately cannot turn back to normal weapons now since I've adjusted my play style to still get hundreds of kills, bots or bugs, on even the highest of difficulties with it.
Truly a democracy moment also, it must’ve been extremely painful to watch all of your video guys go immediately to the gutter because they massively upgraded literally everything it’s time to redo all of your videos
me and my crew use this in an 'Iron Harvest' loadout against the bots on about difficulty 7-8. One of us with a mech, all of us with Constitutions, peacemakers, Mortar turrets and a mixture of orbital gas and 380mm Barrages. Ineffective? yes. Fun as hell? you bet!
I like using guns like this. It forces me to practice managing engagement distance, maintain situational awareness, and calmly aim when being fired upon. I prefer using it against bots from prone or cover, going for headshots at medium range.
Unironically. If you use it with a rover and focus on heavier enemies it becomes a lot more fun. I usually get 300-400+ kills on a bot mission with a constitution. I feel like Simo Häyhä
>Pump the damage to 300 >Heavy armor penetration >Striper clips Boom, make it the equivalent to the Senator Revolver. You trade ammo capacity and firerate for firepower.
Ancient Massachusetts tactical warfare. Sneak up to locations in the light/medium stealth armor, take out alarms first then big targets. Direct confrontation is not your friend with this one I occasionally bring it on difficulty 10, but only against bots. The bugs can tank the hits far better
Believe it or not, they could just take guns from the first game and put them into this that or they could just make up some bull crap we’re gonna have a lot of guns for a while also, yes I left a second comment
considering that arrowhead considers: liberator but shooty faster, purifier (sidearm edition), peacemaker (bigger edition), defender with higher stagger, and punisher (spicy edition) to be worth super credits, i think we'll be having no trouble with warbonds for a longgg time
@ and every single one of those weapons for some reason or 10 times better than the original or 10 times worse and there’s no in between there’s only been to that have been equal that and I would say they are equal because they sound amazing and feel amazing to shoot
in defence of the ministry of space logistics of super earth, they didn't provide speed loaders (clips) because they didn't expect it to be used in combat. (should be an option tho)
by the way, you should weave shoots in between melees and dives for conssistant DPS. Sounds silly but i've seen a lot of people just spamming melee and dropping like a sack of potatoes.
This gun was the best in the first galactic war I found it to be the best for stealth plays and against those illuminate scum I was popping their seekers like bubbles was bummed when it wasn’t in the game on release couldn’t be happier to have my baby back
I actually prefer to use the Constitution against bots. It’s a headshot machine. Bots don’t tend to override your position as much, so as long as you have cover it’s solid. Bugs absolutely require crowd control and this does not have the rapid fire capability needed for them.
tbh the Constitution is the optimal botdiver midrange sniper. Once you learn to aim with it, you can instakill any light & medium bot. The weapon's downsides force you to get good at it, but being good at it is easily the most rewarding thing in the game. If you wanna main it, I suggest getting used to it on planets with wide open spaces & having a full team. This weapon succeeds best when you're not the center of attention all the time. Bring the recoilless rifle or the spear always, so you can cover your heavy enemy weakness. The other 3 stratagems are completely open to the player. This is very much a support weapon, so under no circumstance should you be on the front line of any fight The bayonet is an EMERGENCY tool. Just because it has it and you see cool clips of the bayonet being used, please don't try to use it for anything besides finishing off an enemy that's far too close.
I've said it before, it should just have night sights so I can see what I'm aiming at more accurately on really dark maps where the front post kind of gets too dark to accurately place shots... Or if they're up against rock faces
They should buff this to shoot the same rounds as the senator and keep everything else the same. It’s got terrible sights, terrible handling, slow everything. Just make it do insane damage would make it a TON of fun.
Using the viper commando armor or any armor with peak physique makes your melees do insane damage. You can one shot medium armor with this combo. I call it the Patriotic Penetration. (I 1v1ed a charger)
funnily enough, i actually do prefer the constitution to either of the diligence rifles on bots. it certainly isnt as good as other primaries, but if you get really good at hitting devastator heads it can offer a lot of fun on diff 7 bots (no higher because of rocket striders). throw in a senator. jumppack, stuns, and eats, youve got a pretty decent loadout. still wish it had more pen, damage, and a stripper clip though.
Here is my tips best using at enemies at a distance like extreme distances because compared to to all marksmen rifles the reticle DOES NOT MOVE when standing still and when prone it remains very still so still in fact that you can cap bots and bugs caps better than Simo Hayha The Bayonet is insane it does a lot of wicked damge (best use in bugs) it can even one shot helldivers
when i picked up this gun for the first time i fell in love it with it. so much now i might not even mod it into the Cycler Rifle from Star Wars also Arrowhead... PLEASE revert the update that fucked up armor mods.. i can't even be a full clone trooper anymore :(
Oddly, I've had better luck with the Constitution against bots than against bugs Twigsnapper armor (Heavy, +melee damage, better handling) Secondary: Senator Grenade: Stun Support: Arcthrower Stratagems: Jetpack Eagle Airstrike [Flex] (suggest bringing something to deal with factory striders, gunships, or bot bases) Jet around and zap stuff with arcthrower. Kill hulks with arcthrower spam, or stun grenade + senator mailslot. Against tanks, isolate them then bayonet them to death from the rear. Is it the best bot loadout? No, but it;s fun and it puts the Constitution to good use,
This gun is amazing as a challenge weapon. Im just hoping at some point they drop a "First Amendment" rifle. Same style but with slightly higher caliber (like 250 a shot), a stripper clip, and a acope loke that on the DCS. Would make for a legitimately good gun i would take everywhere. Also for those that like this gun, they may or may not be a mod you can install to replace the terrible irons with a simpler less cluttered design.
most here are over looking its true value, and thats , if i under stand the devs message correctly, that every one gets the constitution, including new divers !!!! so now they get a med armour pen gun at the start of their career
I find this weapon more effective against bots it can one tap the chainsaw bots and the heavy bot with the rockets if you hit them in the head. In fact it one taps to the head when it comes to the more common bots not the heavy units. I like to match it with the revolver. But that’s just me
Man, quality and dynamics in this game are really insane! I dreams to play in helldivers, but my pc is so dumb. I saw this game on Boosteroid and it would be interesting to see how this game works on cloud. Maybe you could make a reivew? It would be fire !
Constitution is kinda fine how it is now, however I think it would benefit from a clip instead of rounds loading individually, another variant of the rifle without the bayonet and with a Scope, catered towards long distance could in return sacrifice the clip and melee potential to gain distance, making it a true Marksman Rifle. I think having both Varieties in the ways I described provides adequate options for different play styles.
I personally think half of the issues with the constitution would be nuked if they added a striper clip for empty reloads
and the other one if they gave it 300 damage
@@TrixterTheFemboyMaybe heavy armor pen instead
-Stripper clip reload.
-250 damage.
-Increased damage and range for the bayonet

Idk the fact that a spear can shoot bullets is pretty neat. Pretty OP for a melee weapon being able to shoot and all.
I found that it's much better against bots than it is against bugs. You just have to use cover and think tactically instead of charging in.
i got an idea: a constitution with a en bloc + bayonet that looks like a garand goes PEENG and is called the Declaration of Justice
tbh the Constitution is the optimal botdiver midrange sniper. Once you learn to aim with it, you can instakill any light & medium bot. The weapon's downsides force you to get good at it, but being good at it is easily the most rewarding thing in the game.
If you wanna main it, I suggest getting used to it on planets with wide open spaces & having a full team. This weapon succeeds best when you're not the center of attention all the time. Bring the recoilless rifle or the spear always, so you can cover your heavy enemy weakness. The other 3 stratagems are completely open to the player. This is very much a support weapon, so under no circumstance should you be on the front line of any fight
The bayonet is an EMERGENCY tool. Just because it has it and you see cool clips of the bayonet being used, please don't try to use it for anything besides finishing off an enemy that's far too close.
I've said it before, it should just have night sights so I can see what I'm aiming at more accurately on really dark maps where the front post kind of gets too dark to accurately place shots... Or if they're up against rock faces
They should buff this to shoot the same rounds as the senator and keep everything else the same. It’s got terrible sights, terrible handling, slow everything.
Just make it do insane damage would make it a TON of fun.
fun fact for u the viper commando armor passive works with the bayonet
I, for one, like the liberator throwback.
Funny thing is that it could penetrate heavy armor in the first game so it wasn't completely useless back then.
Using the viper commando armor or any armor with peak physique makes your melees do insane damage. You can one shot medium armor with this combo. I call it the Patriotic Penetration. (I 1v1ed a charger)
funnily enough, i actually do prefer the constitution to either of the diligence rifles on bots. it certainly isnt as good as other primaries, but if you get really good at hitting devastator heads it can offer a lot of fun on diff 7 bots (no higher because of rocket striders). throw in a senator. jumppack, stuns, and eats, youve got a pretty decent loadout. still wish it had more pen, damage, and a stripper clip though.
3:03 he said among us 10/10 video would feed my kids this again
It’s not about shooting, it’s about reloading!
Here is my tips
best using at enemies at a distance like extreme distances because compared to to all marksmen rifles the reticle DOES NOT MOVE when standing still and when prone it remains very still so still in fact that you can cap bots and bugs caps better than Simo Hayha
The Bayonet is insane it does a lot of wicked damge (best use in bugs) it can even one shot helldivers
As a proud member of the church of the constitution I can confirm all of this is true
If they just upped the damage profile, it would be worth using.
when i picked up this gun for the first time i fell in love it with it. so much now i might not even mod it into the Cycler Rifle from Star Wars
also Arrowhead... PLEASE revert the update that fucked up armor mods.. i can't even be a full clone trooper anymore :(
This is a good video! i enjoy!
Oddly, I've had better luck with the Constitution against bots than against bugs
Twigsnapper armor (Heavy, +melee damage, better handling)
Secondary: Senator
Grenade: Stun
Support: Arcthrower
Stratagems:
Jetpack
Eagle Airstrike
[Flex] (suggest bringing something to deal with factory striders, gunships, or bot bases)
Jet around and zap stuff with arcthrower. Kill hulks with arcthrower spam, or stun grenade + senator mailslot. Against tanks, isolate them then bayonet them to death from the rear.
Is it the best bot loadout? No, but it;s fun and it puts the Constitution to good use,
This gun is amazing as a challenge weapon. Im just hoping at some point they drop a "First Amendment" rifle. Same style but with slightly higher caliber (like 250 a shot), a stripper clip, and a acope loke that on the DCS. Would make for a legitimately good gun i would take everywhere.
Also for those that like this gun, they may or may not be a mod you can install to replace the terrible irons with a simpler less cluttered design.
lovely video you made, lad
most here are over looking its true value, and thats , if i under stand the devs message correctly, that every one gets the constitution, including new divers !!!! so now they get a med armour pen gun at the start of their career
I find this weapon more effective against bots it can one tap the chainsaw bots and the heavy bot with the rockets if you hit them in the head. In fact it one taps to the head when it comes to the more common bots not the heavy units. I like to match it with the revolver. But that’s just me
Man, quality and dynamics in this game are really insane! I dreams to play in helldivers, but my pc is so dumb. I saw this game on Boosteroid and it would be interesting to see how this game works on cloud. Maybe you could make a reivew? It would be fire !
so, that's the liberator
Constitution is kinda fine how it is now, however I think it would benefit from a clip instead of rounds loading individually, another variant of the rifle without the bayonet and with a Scope, catered towards long distance could in return sacrifice the clip and melee potential to gain distance, making it a true Marksman Rifle. I think having both Varieties in the ways I described provides adequate options for different play styles.
If you haven't aggro'd a group of bots it doesn't alert them if you shoot them from far away even if they're near each other
WAIT THEY ADDED THE CONSTITUTION?? LETS FUCKING GO.
Been using this against bots in up to teir 6 and it's been a lot of fun. Honestly. Could be my imagination, but it seems to fire a lot straiter.
Truly the best
You can take down the factory striders if you have a jump pack
This gun works well on the bots not so much on the bugs. really feel like im on D-day when using it against bots.
a most enjoyable video
The only real reason to give helldivers a bolt action is to have it be a powerful burst damage option.
eeey, that thing looks pretty close to a US Enfield 1917!
I once did a base defence mission where we all equiped the constitution and used bayonet only.
It actually worked, and it was glorious.
