Holy shit I though Sony forgot the first game existed. Who else is fucking ready to smash their teammates with drop pods again?
why play this when Deep Rock Galactic already exists?
it's fun but it's not the same and sound design in DRG is garbage
fuck you and your gay reddit game.
ROCK AND STONE XD
ROCK AND SÖY
Anyone else thought it looked a bit shitty? Is it really just a third person shooter now?
yeah I was hoping for helldivers 1 but with more content, had the perfect formula for a top down twin stick shooter
hopefully it's just because it's early but we'll see
Is Helldivers 1 really just a twin stick isometric shooter? If its everything that made Helldivers 1 work, in third person, I don't see how this isn't strictly an upgrade
>people aren't tethered to a single screen anymore
>random maps/weather/mission objectives still
>calling in shit from the sky still
I hope they still have mechs
I'm interested, loved the first one on PC
Its been long since I got a nice cup of liber-tea.
Loved the first one, never expected to actually see a sequel. It mentions the camera angles being adjusted for the trailer but I wonder if it'll be pulled back a lot more in-game to match the first one as a twin stick shooter or if it's changed to a more generic 3rd person shooter.
>starship troopers but gay and reddit
pass
>non woke message
hmm...
>first thing you see is a white/moron interracial couple
>aliens prioritize killing black people
wtf the game is actually based?
wmbf is kino
It was a fat qween tho.
no it wasnt at all
Shalom
They get killed and he literally laughs about it later.
zzzzz
Hopefully it isn't just killing bugs and has the other races from Helldivers in it.
You
You do not exist, you are not a real person
Nobody played helldivers to fight the illuminate or cyborgs
Everyone played it to fight the bugs
i liked fighting the cyborgs more, but fuck the stupid squids and their chairs
Killing alien bugs are cool, but it's nice to have the option to Hispanice it up when committing warcrimes.
helldivers is the most fun co op experience i've ever had, im tired of stalking Arrowhead's twitter waiting for an update... FINALY HERE IT IS
I fucking love the first game so much and I have never thought I'd live to see a sequel
Genuinely my one highlight of the reveal I haven't been this happy for a fucking videogame since Stranger of Paradise
Fix Magicka, you fucks, game is broken.
Finally, our time has come. For Super Earth!
There's hope for Fat princes, Gravity Rush 3 and Soul Sacrifice 2, right Bros...?
helldivers was great at launch but they kept pushing p2w dlc shit and half the inventory was locked with paid dlc
I thought this name sounded familiar. I think the first Helldivers was one of the first games that Sony ever made free on PS+. Think i downloaded it out of curiosity, played it once, then deleted.
This one looks pretty cool though.
> I though Sony forgot the first game existed.
helldivers is not a sony game, sony is the publisher, but arrowhead owns it.
>3rd person shooter
what is the point?
They should've doubled down on the top down shooter route but made each player have their own individual camera that followed just them instead of tying everyone to a small circle of play. These games suffer bad from that design choice, so many go this route and it just blows.
Starship Troopers Extermination already beat them to the punch and will probably end up being much better
opposite sentiment of 'early access Starship Troopers Extermination is probably going to get cucked really hard by Helldivers full release,' which is a shame because having multiple successful flavors of the same thing is usually nice
if both garner success that'd be great though
>you no longer get spotted by bullshit spawning at the very edge of the screen, or even seeing you from BEYOND the edge of the screen, forcing psychotic radar watching to pop that Cyborg tank before it literally drops from the sky rendered outside of your actual vision range to blindfire it to death before it instaspots you
>levels having a Z axis means you can use hard cover/defilade concealment to further avoid & aggressively preempt enemy spotting
>conversely, ENEMIES might use concealment against you, adding a new dynamic
>weapons with firing range that push beyond max screen length can be exploited better
>big enemies are capable of appearing bigger and more terrifying from the perspective change
I can easily see this shit as an upgrade, anon, the iso formula was fun, it was intrinsic to the first game, but also had frustrating elements that I'm not gonna mourn the loss of
I really hope that it isn't just the bugs for 2 don't get me wrong but I wanna face some Cyborgs
If they don't at least translate every weapon and support item from the first game to this, I will be very disappointed
Looks like they had the towers and flamethrower. Hopefully we can still get the oh shit get the barbed wires up moments
it's likely they will, and more a question of whether they do so in the same DLC packages or not, or make all that shit available through grind with a pay-to-skip affair
I'm more interested in what outright NEW shit they could add, I want a short-barrel Bastion variant with extra HE splash in exchange for less raw damage to single armored targets, luv me assault guns
and on that point, I hope they make it so vehicles can have their ammo resupplied if they aren't destroyed, it was a shame that once they ran dry the 1-and-done callins were truly done for the mission; on high difficulties, it meant you either saved all that shit for the very end and overkilled, or used it up early/midway and didn't have it for extract, and ALSO meant that vehicle call-ins might not pull their weight through a spongey boss fight versus other call-ins that were unlimited but timer'd
looked like shit, some random generic third person shooter with helldivers skin
might as well play modded arma3
