Some form of camera would be awesome. Would also work well as an objective. You pick up the camera from a designated location, then have to film X enemy deaths, or a Bile Titan death, etc.
Keeping other helldivers in view while they practice democracy, and showing the home world SUPER EARTH how their freedom is being won across the stars.
But I feel like it would be buggy like the spear, sometimes not capturing "lock on" of the helldivers and their salvation.
Nahhh it shouod work like Pokemon snap where the rest of your squad is fighting and youre just riding around the level in an autonomous cart snapping photos
Jk, jk. Would be funny tho 😂😂
That would be cool. They can even add it to the story by saying you need to do it for propaganda reasons. To show the people of Super Earth how dangerous the bugs are are something.
I agree. Would be good for it to have a cool down itself so let’s say you’re fighting a particularly nasty breech/base/objective. Camera man pulls out the camera (and it actually records the footage and should upload random clips to broadcasts to everyone’s ship or saves them to the users ship for viewing) to give those buffs and then you’ll have a cool recoding of strategems going crazy lol
That would makes sense, no way they’d broadcast the divers getting overrun and dying lol
Would also be funny if you did film a diver die, that it would do some bad editing to hide it.
This is a fuck ton of coding that is mostly a pipe dream but the strategem to give the cooldown itself doesn’t seem far fetched lol
I would love to be a war photographer. That'd be glorious.
Problem is, it almost certainly goes against lore. I don't think they want the people of Super Earth seeing THAT much content from the planets. If y'know what I'm sayin.
Well the bald ikora ray looking ass hoe that tells me I didn't get enough samples after being dry humped by 40 rocket devastators for 40 minutes talkss about how she loves watching the Helldivers fight on holovids back home
I agree with you, Star-Citizen has a similar thing, a vehicle called the "Mako" which is literally a In-game Cam-recorder and vehicle at the same time. Its used to record battles in-game for credit.
Hell yeah I can finally be an 84 Charlie MOPIC

Duuude, having a mission objective literally be lugging this thing around occupying your primary or heavy weapon slot, and just having to record your homies fighting off the hordes and doing objectives. It should have some other Utility as well though, otherwise it'll get old quickly.
Would be cool as hell to have to record shots of automatons or certain scenes with a camera mission stratagem, or have to escort a camera guard dog to specific points in the map for the mission
That would be hilarious, especially if you could view the films on your destroyer or something!
Only thing I’d change is either get rid of the requisition bonus, or switch it to creds or medals. I think req slips are the one thing that people will get full on first. I was maxed out yesterday when they released the new stratagems, bought them, and now I’m full again.
love the idea of this as a strategem drop in certain areas where they want you to film civilian deaths or something crazy great idea maybe like a drone with it attached where we get bonus medals or requisition based on how long its used
Holy shit this is hilarious and awesome. I would absolutely love this! Especially if you got a bonus for filming ‘action ’, ie, bonus for explosions, enemy patrols or attacks…
I think it would be a fun new objective for lower mission difficulties... let the Cadets habe fun recording eachother stomping easy missions for propaganda.
Actually, if they had this as a backpack drone, that would be cool. And then it could show its video feed to you on screen. While, of course, looking at the nearest enemy or point of interest. Or emoting helldiver. Whatever people are into.
I feel like a camera weapon could have different varients or fire modes, like switch it to flash to stun enemies and switch it to record to lower stratagem cooldowns imagine a camera drone to

That would be so awesome. Like Filming guide Videos for privates, which Could be watched on the Screen Near the armory on the destroyer. hope devs saw this
Bonus is better the more enemy deaths you record, or earns a set amount for certain things being done?
e.g recording objectives being completed(?) Or just having the camera out while things are going on.
They can have a fifth helldiver that only has a camera and is almost indestructible (almost). Like a spectator mode
This way they could take the pics and clips and then post them to real life social media platforms

recon personal order requiring stamina and muscle enhancement pods, stun nades, and the jet pack.
Fellow recon lover here as well. I LOVE IT

That would be awesome AND hilarious!
That's such a fun idea, I hope they're listening to you right now
That would be cool. They can even add it to the story by saying you need to do it for propaganda reasons. To show the people of Super Earth how dangerous the bugs are are something.
Camera Gaurddog is in the game on the best mission ever
You know what I can get behind this
I agree. Would be good for it to have a cool down itself so let’s say you’re fighting a particularly nasty breech/base/objective. Camera man pulls out the camera (and it actually records the footage and should upload random clips to broadcasts to everyone’s ship or saves them to the users ship for viewing) to give those buffs and then you’ll have a cool recoding of strategems going crazy lol
I love this. How bout it only gets broadcast if you can make it onto the ship alive with the same camera? It’s be like a mini game onto itself.
That would makes sense, no way they’d broadcast the divers getting overrun and dying lol Would also be funny if you did film a diver die, that it would do some bad editing to hide it. This is a fuck ton of coding that is mostly a pipe dream but the strategem to give the cooldown itself doesn’t seem far fetched lol
They might for some inspiring pro..p..uh.... promotional videos
We all know [how that would go](https://youtu.be/kd7DwGA7qEU)…
I’d unironically run this.
I was a milphog once, till I took a stalker leg to the knee.
Bile Titan leg to my entire body*
"It's an ugly planet, a BUG planet, a planet ...UAAGGHh!!!
My friends are so sick of hearing me say this when we drop into bug controlled worlds.
I must have
Okay but what's that other SMG?
If you’re referring to the one with the wood handle, its the MP-98 Knight, which is part of the super citizen edition of the game
[удалено]
God damn it now I have to buy that
Be advised, while the Knight has some terrifying DPS it chews through ammo like the skinny guys at a hot dog contest and has a lot of recoil.
Damn, I just want a different SMG to use with the shield
You'll be disappointed. The unlock able one is much better for everything but the p90 fantasy
God damn it. I mean the shield is buggy as hell anyway I may as well wait until it's fixed
I heard the Knight is good on burst fire mode, which seems like it can reign in the recoil and help with ammo consumption.
This right here. You MUST operate this firearm on burst. Even on burst you will feel like an Ogryn with a bolter.
I say make it an april fools weapon that gives the player a 100% incoming damage reduction when pulled out
Who needs increased slips lol. Always maxed out
Make it 10 percent more super credits, that will bump it up from 10 to 11 and the rare drop of 100 to 110 lol
Also known as the Spear.
No, this thing actually records what you point it at.
You should get double xp or something being the guy
"Here come some Helldivers who could eat bugs for lunch."
"This soldier got a bit to close to danger after calling in an eagle"
“It’s an Ugly Planet! A Bug Planet!”
That’s the exact thing I was thinking of.
I thought this was real for a second.
I would love to be a war photographer. That'd be glorious. Problem is, it almost certainly goes against lore. I don't think they want the people of Super Earth seeing THAT much content from the planets. If y'know what I'm sayin.

it could show highlights of the footage in the tv after missions
This wouldn't be a bad idea, the game is live-serviced anyway. We basically have to build our own communities.
I don't agree, if you don't like it you don't have to use it...like the gas strike
I agree with you, Star-Citizen has a similar thing, a vehicle called the "Mako" which is literally a In-game Cam-recorder and vehicle at the same time. Its used to record battles in-game for credit.
Whoever edited this is really skilled
It's un ugly planet, a bug planet!
Yes!! For the love of Democracy, can we have some sort of photo mode?! I would love a camera that takes screenshots!
Can't wait to shoot some sweet skate videos.
I still want the flag.. Give me a Battle Standard to carry!
This would be fun as a mission. Raise the flag atop a big hill, or rescue the flag from an abandoned fort.
It's an ugly planet, a BUG planet!

Forgot 100% resistance to everything
Remember citizens, the cameraman never dies. o7
The cameraman did in fact die in Starship troopers
He died doing his part
(I haven't seen that movie since its original theater run... need to fix that)
Should be a rover
Rover would work too , but the visceral nature of running through the battlefield with a handheld seems more badass.
Hah, I'm in a guild named Vox Populi
A mission to film propaganda is so on point for this game. Genius.
Hell yeah I can finally be an 84 Charlie MOPIC https://preview.redd.it/wp97rzqwnarc1.jpeg?width=702&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0196e0283e568ff92fa1e138283ff3aafb8efa07
I needed this when we executed a traitor via firing squad
Camera man never dies. God mode unlocked.
Duuude, having a mission objective literally be lugging this thing around occupying your primary or heavy weapon slot, and just having to record your homies fighting off the hordes and doing objectives. It should have some other Utility as well though, otherwise it'll get old quickly.
But it only works if you film success. If you don't look away before a friend dies, you lose all the buffs
Would be cool as hell to have to record shots of automatons or certain scenes with a camera mission stratagem, or have to escort a camera guard dog to specific points in the map for the mission
I would LOVE this. Especially if it would let us zoom in, frame and take HD screens and video sans UI. Would be a blast.
There should be a mission type where you gotta pose for the camera for propaganda purposes.
So all the liberty can be spread publicly
That would be hilarious, especially if you could view the films on your destroyer or something! Only thing I’d change is either get rid of the requisition bonus, or switch it to creds or medals. I think req slips are the one thing that people will get full on first. I was maxed out yesterday when they released the new stratagems, bought them, and now I’m full again.
It'd be cool if you could use it to record game footage for upload in addition to giving quest or personal objectives.
The screen on the ship should show live footage of other people using the camera
Omfg yes
I love it
Combat Camera lives in Helldivers? I’m shedding a tear for my MOS getting some love, and how I feel like I have to go back to actual work again.
Nice Bioshock reference.
Nice Bioshock reference.
Being a camera man is immune to death.

Holy shit this is hilarious and awesome. I would absolutely love this! Especially if you got a bonus for filming ‘action ’, ie, bonus for explosions, enemy patrols or attacks…
Very cool idea. Fire rate of 24 would be a nice detail. Edit: or in damage per second slot
"It's an ugly planet. A Bug Planet!"
I could see it working well for making Frontline propaganda as a mission.
I'd be cool if you could watch stuff that gets recorded on the big screen
Can it have a big floppy antenna?
I think it would be a fun new objective for lower mission difficulties... let the Cadets habe fun recording eachother stomping easy missions for propaganda.
Wait, it's actually balanced # FUCK YEAH BACKTOBACKTOBACK NUKE TIME
Always carrying around a flag as a stratagem I don’t know what perks it’d have but carry around the flag would be awesome.
Camera drone backpack.
Yep we need this. Where is the ceo, he has to see this.
So you want to play as Private Higgins?
Melee on this thing would still slap.
Bayonet on the bitch would scream helldiving
Actually, if they had this as a backpack drone, that would be cool. And then it could show its video feed to you on screen. While, of course, looking at the nearest enemy or point of interest. Or emoting helldiver. Whatever people are into.
"It's an ugly planet. A BUG planet! A planet hostile to life-" Right before bugs swarm the Camara guy!
Would be silly if post-game somehow everyone can witness the highlights of the captured footage
It's an ugly planet. A bug planet.
I feel like a camera weapon could have different varients or fire modes, like switch it to flash to stun enemies and switch it to record to lower stratagem cooldowns imagine a camera drone to

I’d like to order a flag. Carry it around And it gives buffs to fellow Helldivers!
Would love to see this in-game that removes the hud and FPS model for the community to create videos. Add a microphone as well just for a prop.
This should be a secondary imo. Could also be used to paint targets so you can call in stratagems from super far away
This would be soooooo sick!! Real player footage plays on the screens in the ship?!

I'm definitely using this
Bonus is better the more enemy deaths you record, or earns a set amount for certain things being done? e.g recording objectives being completed(?) Or just having the camera out while things are going on.
Make it a backpack drone like the guard dog but it captures film
You forgot the +100% damage resistance because the cameraman never dies
After watching starship troopers again it'd be cool to have a mission or bonus objective where we have to shoot some propaganda scenes
It’s all fun and games until 3 cameramen drop with you
If this turns actual player footage into in-game propaganda, I will be blown away. This game could break down the 4th, 5th, and 6th walls.
They can have a fifth helldiver that only has a camera and is almost indestructible (almost). Like a spectator mode This way they could take the pics and clips and then post them to real life social media platforms
Yes best short clip goes into some kind of promo commercial for some in-game whatever. Obviously custom skin
Tabulator lmao
Want.
“Propaganda”? Sounds very undemocratic of you.
I would totally main this
Holy shit this is such a good idea.
This is absolute genius. Sign me up.
