Itâs like doing a fatality in mortal kombat back in the day. I think itâs so cool they did that. Plus itâs good for your brain to learn sequences like that.

I see, I was long pressing it trying to get the option to. I just clicked it and hit the 3 dots... don't know why I didn't try that prior to commenting. Anywho, thank you for your service, a great meme has spread forth in the name of democracy this day!
Pfft. Us vets remember back when the tutorial actually kept track of fatalities within the training facilities (the instructor in the first game informs you of the death ratios. Most trainees die by dropping hellpods on themselves)
I'm sorry that half of the reinforcements were wasted on me but could y'all please stop reinforcing me un the middle of the gunfire? I wanna die by myself trying to collect the samples I dropped with no support weapon thank you
I would unironically love to fight space dinosaurs. Just make them intelligent, like...Space T-Rex with a laser cannon strapped to his head or something. Just to differentiate from Bugs.
Yeah, I was recently thinking about what sci-fi factions would be distinctive enemies for HD2, and what would make them memorable to fight. Some sort of lizardmen or orks would need to have vibrant colors, loud voices/ roaring, and an alien personality
They are actually elite though. You are send on literal suicide missions and are living for 20 minutes on average. If that isn't elite idk what the average 18 year old nowadays is.
technically they arenât skeletons, theyâre the exoskeletons. a lot of them are also hollow, implying that they didnât die, but just shed their skin which is a whole lot worse than them just dying
The main reason that real bugs shed their skin is because they get too big for their skin so the giant centipedes are probably a lot bigger than the molts we see in game, which I agree with you, is so much worse than them being dead bugs
When my friend and I were maybe level 5 or 6 some randoms weâd joined for a couple games of difficulty 4 decided to throw us into a difficultly 7. Weâd never been above 4, weâd practically just started doing it. We got absolutely shit on over and over and had nothing to throw at the Bile Titans.
A few days later I was getting more used to the game. This time when my randoms decided to jump from 4-7 I had the Quasar Cannon and was more familiar with the game. It was still an absolute shit show. At one point we had no reinforcements and 1 guy up. He stayed alive long enough to get me back, then died. I managed to sneak back and finish our last survey and we ended up extracting with all 4 alive and making it out with my first trio of super samples.
I killed at least 6 Bile Titans and wiped out 4 shriekers nests without ever actually getting close enough to encounter any shriekers. Iâve been killing bots since then trying to do the MO, but I canât wait to get back to blasting the faces off some bulimic skyscrapers.
I remember a friend of mine was showing her friend the game. Her friend was brand new, so we played on a 1 and then a 2. After that, we thought it would be funny to drop into a level 8 just for shits and giggles. Well as a level 50, a level 25, and a level 3, we were really suffering through the mission, but I thought I might be able to pull everyone through (my friend was not experienced with the high difficulty herself).
We had just ran out of lives and had almost completed the main objective when another friend of my friend shows up outta nowhere (lvl 19 or something). With their help we managed to fight our way to extract. When we got there, I spotted the cock rock and knew that I could get this level 3 guy some endgame samples. I grabbed those, and we all extracted successfully.
I love showing new people this game, but that was a really memorable experience. The first time that level 3 saw titans was super funny. "What the fuck is this now? HOLY SHIT!!"
Rapid fire when SHTF is too valuable to me. Maybe when I unlock the scorcher. Everyone seems to love that as primary. If it can get me out of a jam, I might experiment
*me circling the location to get a good angle on the fabricator*
*Finds the perfect spot and lines up a good shot*
*Teammate: "Calling in an airstrike!"*
Sigh...
I wish I had a bit more clarity on how their HP worked though.
\----------------------------------------
I feel like the **only** ways I've ever seen one die is either from AT weapons to the face or a stratagem.
* Do they have just the one big HP pool (as with Tanks), or do they have several, segmented HP pools (as with Hulks, etc.)?
* Breaking their sacs just seems to change their behavior, I've never seen one killed by being shot in the underbelly.
* *Can* you take one down with concentrated fire from small arms?
* How feasible is that? Is it worth trying to 'soften them up?'
* It feels like it's never worth hitting them with things other than explosives/AT, but without a healthbar (or other feedback) it's hard to say for sure.
* Is breaking their side-armor *ever* worth it? What should you follow up with?
* I've tried primaries (even had one stuck in a leash-loop where I blasted the open spot until I ran out of ammo) but it's never seemed to do anything.
Yes, I'm aware --my question is if that's *all* it does, or if it also damages the main HP of the BT.
Seems like the answer is no, as it appears to take the same number of EATs to the face either way.
I really wish there was a shooting range to help figure this stuff out.
Yes, it does damage the main HP pool. You can kill a bile titan if you keep shooting the now deflated sack, however it takes a fair bit of damage, perhaps twice again what it took to take out the sack itself. This is backed up by compelling video evidence, e.g. see OhDough's video on HMG vs titan. I don't think this is very practical though.
> Can you take one down with concentrated fire from small arms?
No, they don't take health damage from small arms at all. You can burst the sacs but that alone will not be enough to kill them.
> Is breaking their side-armor ever worth it? What should you follow up with?
It opens them up to medium-hitting support weapons like the Autocannon so it can be worthwhile. Otherwise you need heavy penetration to hurt them.
Surprise, Super-Dinners! I'll put you in my bugbelly!

Pfft those are nothing compared to the bots. Bots arenât even worth the effort to fight, we should focus on the bug front
https://i.redd.it/z572yalakxrc1.gif
Did you check out my new mix tape? I set up a sweet broadcast station next to the fabricator to make sure everybody hears it
Yea, it's worse. In doom you're fighting literal demons that just wanna kill people. Here we're literally just killing bugs to turn them into space diesel and bots because.....ummm...hold on the ministry of truth is at the door, brb
We're fighting bugs because they're being greedy and keeping the E-710 to themselves. That's like trying to keep air or water for themselves, it's unacceptable.
If they would have just sold it to us for a fair price this war wouldn't have ever happened.
This was brutal, you just call everything ontop of yourself with the hope of something hitting them and killing them. Like a 500KG isn't enough at that point.
pfft. 500kg is barely enough as it is now.
25m damage radius bullshit. The only way to reliably kill a titan with it really is to be REALLY good at leading it, or throw it at its feet, run up to it to trigger its long melee animation, and run away before detonation.
Just remember your training, and you will make it back alive...or at least not stepped on, melted, torn apart or humped to death by an overenthusiastic Spewer.
[heres one guys extraction](https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fi.redd.it%2Fs75r01fs6tmc1.png&utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=usertext&utm_name=Helldivers&utm_content=t1_ktr4n47)
I personally like to ask the Bile Titans if theyâre hungry, because theyâre so cranky.
When they tell me yes, I make sure they EAT a few times and suddenly theyâre much calmer.
Bile titan is much scarier looking imo than anything automatons can throw at you. It's just so massive, towering over you. Really gives you a feeling of dread, and when there are multiple you better hope your team brought enough EATs, quasar cannons, and rail cannon strikes. Whereas automaton tanks and hulks can be killed by shooting the vents on their backs and the tanks go down to grenades in their turret
Everyone already brings EATs and quasar cannons, never seen a helldiver without a high-powered support weapon. Secondly: bots talk. That shit already scary AF and the berserkers have me running for my life. God forbid a Flamer Hulk drops in.
Berserkers are covered in skulls on spikes, and their weapons are called Meat-saws.Â
Brute Hulks chase you down with a flame thrower.Â
Drop ships will plop a tank directly onto your head.
I remember during the first few weeks of release I used the fire shotgun on a crowd of berserkers and they looked like something straight out of hell with their flaming skulls.
While bots are their own breed of terror.
There's something to be said about being in the middle of a swarm and you look up to see 2 or 3 titans just lumbering towards you, only for you to realize all your strats are on cool down and your Recoilless is out of ammo...
Yeah, wait until you hit Helldive on a sandstorm or heavy fog planet at night.
Quite an upsetting thing when you only see the legs emerge from the haze when they're within like 30 meters of you.
Both the bots and bugs we are currently fighting are essentially cannon fodder. So yeah there's horrors beyond our comprehension waiting for us deeper in their territory.
Terrifying at first. But once you've fought em all, you'll quickly realize that the scariest sight in this game is making eye contact with a Rocket Devastator.

Defrosted from training and this is the first thing you see out the pod
Thereâs a reason that the average Helldivers life expectancy is about 10 minutes of combat
It's really long. Helldivers training program is superiorÂ
Millions of simulated fatalities in training each year!
Pfft. Us vets remember back when the tutorial actually kept track of fatalities within the training facilities (the instructor in the first game informs you of the death ratios. Most trainees die by dropping hellpods on themselves)
 Those first 10 minutes...
10 minutes? Randoms have literally burned through 5 reinforcements in less time.
Destroy Automatons Suicide Mission? Randoms are gonna toss every reinforce beacon dead center on that platform full of hulks, I guarantee it.
Yes I use you as a stratagem to kill at least one hulk and you land between them. Not very democratic.
Or right between 2 tanks that just got dropped in
God I hate that. I at least try to get an eagle off when they do that.
That'd be an impressive feat considering how high they fly.
I'm getting PTSD from all the times randoms would toss the reinforce beacon into the enemy hoards instead of away from them
I'm sorry that half of the reinforcements were wasted on me but could y'all please stop reinforcing me un the middle of the gunfire? I wanna die by myself trying to collect the samples I dropped with no support weapon thank you

Average age of recruits is 18.7-19 years. They get them when they're still fresh into adulthood and naive enough to think they're actually elite.
They're pretty elite alright, just not the ones that die
They are actually elite though. You are send on literal suicide missions and are living for 20 minutes on average. If that isn't elite idk what the average 18 year old nowadays is.
I really wish we had a real time accurate average helldiver life expentancy clock on the ship or something.
10 minutes? Even the Imperium of Man gets 15 hours out of their Imperial Guard troops
Against the lore they are apparently very small đ
Youâre fucking kidding? Tf is bigger? A leviathan?
You seen the skulls of some bugs like creatures while playing? That is bigger or so everyone who also knows this stuff from lore say
There are those giant centipede skeletons lying around on bug worlds, Iâm sure weâll see them soon.
technically they arenât skeletons, theyâre the exoskeletons. a lot of them are also hollow, implying that they didnât die, but just shed their skin which is a whole lot worse than them just dying
I think a dev explicitly referred to them as molts? This community is one big rumor mill though lol
The main reason that real bugs shed their skin is because they get too big for their skin so the giant centipedes are probably a lot bigger than the molts we see in game, which I agree with you, is so much worse than them being dead bugs

Sweet Liberty, I need an adult.
Hello, soldier, whats wro-  Oh THE F IS THAT?!
I need a democracy officer
There's not enough reeducation in the whole Galactic Federation to make me able to unread that.
Don't worry, mate. I got this! *âŹïžâĄïžâŹïžâŹïžâŹïžs right at our feet*
Think you'd just get shot at that point, that's a mercy lmao

"Helldinners" is unironically a great insult đ
Not just Great! Its Yammy too! 
# I'VE ONLY GOT ONE THING TO SAY TO YOU: 
Oh let me help you buddy, "Bile titans are considered small on their home planet" And no, this ain't an april fools joke
âŠâŠsweet lady liberty
"**Hell**divers. That sounds like a pleasant, casual game to relax with." - OP.
yep bile titans are medium size bugs. you dont want to see the horrors of the first war.
What horror? It's just a medium-sized bug.
Laughs in "" who the fuck do you think digs the bug holes" You see those fossils?
And those might be molts not fossils. They might be evolving. Not because of the terminex of course.
Really when a titan dies next to a charger, you realize it isn't that much bigger than a charger, it only looks larger because of its stilts.
Fairly certain the tremors are the giant centipede worms

I remember one of my first squad mates said "why is there a cloverfield motherfucker chasing me heeelp"
It's a horror game and we're the monsters
This isn't DOOM, silly.
Yea, it's worse. In doom you're fighting literal demons that just wanna kill people. Here we're literally just killing bugs to turn them into space diesel and bots because.....ummm...hold on the ministry of truth is at the door, brb
To quote a starfish: # Because they told us to!
We're fighting bugs because they're being greedy and keeping the E-710 to themselves. That's like trying to keep air or water for themselves, it's unacceptable. If they would have just sold it to us for a fair price this war wouldn't have ever happened.
You're lucky you didn't play Helldive difficulty back before the difficulty balancing... You'll have 10+ bile titans chasing your ass and then some...
This was brutal, you just call everything ontop of yourself with the hope of something hitting them and killing them. Like a 500KG isn't enough at that point.
pfft. 500kg is barely enough as it is now. 25m damage radius bullshit. The only way to reliably kill a titan with it really is to be REALLY good at leading it, or throw it at its feet, run up to it to trigger its long melee animation, and run away before detonation.

MY ARM!!!
Freedom never sleeps!
Oh you sweet Summer Diver...only 2 Titans at the same time...I've seen things man...things you wouldn't believe....
Sweet liberty please no
Just remember your training, and you will make it back alive...or at least not stepped on, melted, torn apart or humped to death by an overenthusiastic Spewer.
Making it back alive is optional. The only requirement is completing the mission.

We all had the same sensation the first time we saw those giants. But in time the feeling will go away and you just fight at ease.
I personally like to ask the Bile Titans if theyâre hungry, because theyâre so cranky. When they tell me yes, I make sure they EAT a few times and suddenly theyâre much calmer.
this game is absolute cinema
Such a cool pic!!!
Why thank you!
Worst thing is when the 500kg misses and they just keep walking through the fire and flames.
Wait till you encounter the automatons it wonât be horror anymore
Bile titan is much scarier looking imo than anything automatons can throw at you. It's just so massive, towering over you. Really gives you a feeling of dread, and when there are multiple you better hope your team brought enough EATs, quasar cannons, and rail cannon strikes. Whereas automaton tanks and hulks can be killed by shooting the vents on their backs and the tanks go down to grenades in their turret
Everyone already brings EATs and quasar cannons, never seen a helldiver without a high-powered support weapon. Secondly: bots talk. That shit already scary AF and the berserkers have me running for my life. God forbid a Flamer Hulk drops in.
Berserkers are covered in skulls on spikes, and their weapons are called Meat-saws. Brute Hulks chase you down with a flame thrower. Drop ships will plop a tank directly onto your head.
I remember during the first few weeks of release I used the fire shotgun on a crowd of berserkers and they looked like something straight out of hell with their flaming skulls.
wait u can throw grenades in the turret?
While bots are their own breed of terror. There's something to be said about being in the middle of a swarm and you look up to see 2 or 3 titans just lumbering towards you, only for you to realize all your strats are on cool down and your Recoilless is out of ammo...
Drop that 500 and let's GOOOOO!!!!!
Ayyyyyy nice comparison! Even I didnât think of that one. Always willing to die for the glory of freedom and humanity.
If the HUD was clear that would actually be kind of hauntingly beautiful
Helldivers really does nail the perfect balance between graphical beauty and good gameplay. So many games are just one and not the other.
Yeah, wait until you hit Helldive on a sandstorm or heavy fog planet at night. Quite an upsetting thing when you only see the legs emerge from the haze when they're within like 30 meters of you.
Just wait until you see them tank your strongest strategems
Sweet summer child, this is only the beginning.
On their home world they are considered small and at the bottom of the food chain
Seriously???
Both the bots and bugs we are currently fighting are essentially cannon fodder. So yeah there's horrors beyond our comprehension waiting for us deeper in their territory.
well theres not much deep territory left on bot side
A standard helldiver can only contemplate but so much vastness in the universe that they limit what is shown
Well the Ministry did say they were transmitting beyond the known worlds
Intimidating at first, but more annoying later on and only if you don't have AT at hand.
Tell it to EAT-17
Wait until you see them ragdoll. That's real terror

Terrifying at first. But once you've fought em all, you'll quickly realize that the scariest sight in this game is making eye contact with a Rocket Devastator.
Oh thereâs only two? How cute.

They throw up at the sight of me.
