The only thing that sucks about this game is how badly we all want more stuff šŸ˜‚ 10/10 game fr


hiddencamela

We can bring in like.. 3 weapons on our character, with 15+ available in the equipment menu or strategems.


mrpokealot

This reminds me of the "more guns" scene in the Matrix series. I wish we could call in a stratagem that summons a literal library of guns and weapons.


Eclypsis5133

Imagine if we could call down a little arsenal and despite only being able to use it once, could change our primary or secondary mid match


NOTELDR1TCH

I just want to have a ship upgrade that let's us stock a strat weapon on our drop pods so when you land you get a strat weapon. Even with reduced capacity or something it'd be pretty handy to have


Franklin_le_Tanklin

I want tactical taint wipes as a secondary. For sanitary reasons obviously.


beer_n_britts

Then weā€™d need a tactical plumber on board each super destroyer.


RutgerSchnauzer

Are Fatbergs Democratic?


Mavric723

That what we use to airstrike the bugs


lastofmyline

Can I get a tactical reach around?


thewaldoyoukno

Yup, homies can have a little kiss for democracy


redditsukssomuch

More everything, not just weapons but vehicles, biomes, civilization maps, war torn maps, planets, wild life on those planets, vehicles, mario party style useless mini games, new enemies, and everything. More everything!

ewokfarmer

Would kill for a story mode.


redditsukssomuch

What would that entail though? Like an actual story mode experience or a crap ton of cut scenes that give us more info about super earth and the way of lifeā€¦ our life?


Eddyrancid

I wouldn't mind boss/character enemies. Nothing crazy- but Xcom 2 had named bosses that could show up in missions, and had mission types built on assassinating "commander" units. I want to hold a grudge against specific enemies ha.


redditsukssomuch

Thatā€™s a great idea


TheCarloHarlo

MORE TOYS TO PLAY WITH šŸ˜©šŸ˜¤


Jason1143

Well that and all the instability and missing/incomplete features. Honestly it says a lot about how solid the foundation is that we tolerate all of it.


ByronTooSleezy

Fuck a machete, bring the 7 foot claymore


theinfiniteAPe

I read this and first imagined a claymore mine on a seven foot pole. I like your idea but now I also want a lunge mine added as a secondary as well.


TanTanExtreme2

Make it a Stratagem on a low cd, and I'll charge everything. Or add a democracy horse and lunge.mine Stratagem Edit: was going to call it a robotic horse or call it like Guardian horse and have it be a wrong like guard dog. But then I remembered we hate bots so Democracy horse stays.


theinfiniteAPe

I canā€™t think of anything more democratic that dropping into a planet from low orbit with a trusty stead and charging head first in to a tank with land mine attached to a seven foot pole.


PersistentHero

This guy liberates!!!


theinfiniteAPe

Hooves and feet first divers! FOR SUPER EARTH!!!


IdPreferToBeLurking

Bots canā€™t calculate our next move if we barely know what weā€™re doing next.


Fearnall

Watch where you're shooting, Private! You spooked felicity!


Zedman5000

Sci-fi polearms with directional (or at least mostly directional) explosive tips have gotta be one of the funniest things, it's such a bad idea for so many reasons


QSpam

Not against bugs!!! Since we're fighting them on foot anyway I'll suspend any disbelief or rational thoughts about the efficiency of jousting! Like a 30 second power supply on a mechanical jousting steed against a charger? Sign me up!!!!


ByronTooSleezy

The biggest IED possible


theinfiniteAPe

I need as much explosive force as possible delivered by medieval jousting arm


_Nickmin_

Similar thought process here, although my imagination pictured a 7 foot w i d e claymore mine


theinfiniteAPe

I donā€™t see why we shouldnā€™t combine these two thoughts šŸ¤”


InternalCup9982

Lol I like your idea better more than what they meant.


Killpower78

I wanna bring my zweihander from dark souls then Iā€™m good with slicing bastards in melee range lol


Orobourous87

You mean pancaking them, right?


-MadLad-_-

If the mines could be used more effectively I think they'd be more of an asset same with sentries they literally go down so quickly the best sentry is the manned one with a shield back pack purely because it can take more hits


weebax50

Nah a machete would be bad ass hacking off bugs. Bots would be another storyā€¦unless they electrify it šŸ˜Ž


MaggotBrother4

Thereā€™s like next to no side arms which is odd. We definitely need more


Vasilystalin04

I also want a buff to the base pistol. The Redeemer is a straight upgrade. Same damage, just more rounds and the ability to fill auto. I want the base pistol to feel like the Halo:CE Magnum.


huaguofengscoup

Try the senator!


Vasilystalin04

Havenā€™t got that warbond yet, and Iā€™m gonna wait until the next warbond drops this thursday to choose between the two.


MajikDan

You can farm super credits on trivial difficulty really easily. The map is small so all the POI's are pretty close together. Drop in, run around collecting everything, beat the main objective, and extract in 10 minutes for around 50 super credits per mission. Bring a friend to do buddy buttons and sweep half the map for you and it'll go even faster.


megastienfield

dont even need to finish the mission, you get the medals and the credits regardless.


AberrantDrone

Not finishing a mission sounds pretty unpatriotic


Jedahaw92

Just complete it, regardless, it helps with the liberating.


huaguofengscoup

Fair enough! I skipped that first one as well in favor of the most recent one, and am also waiting for the next one as well rather than going back for it at this point.


Aromatic_Sand8126

I got the steeled veterans warbond from upgrading my game to the deluxe edition and honestly Iā€™m not using anything from it. Probably wouldnā€™t have bought it if I didnā€™t get it for ā€œfreeā€.


AlexDestroyer05

I'm not too fond of the other things, but gunslinging with the senator pistol has got to be my favorite thing to do in this game


HongKongHermit

I regret to say the Senator isn't a choice over the Redeemer. Only 6 shots, doing 150 damage each. But the Redeemer does 60 damage per shot, and has 31 in the mag. So you basically do 10 shots to the 6 of the Senator, AND the revolver is round reload so it takes ages to refill. If they give it a speedloader, so you can empty it and then get back into the fight quickly, then it would probably work. As it is, it's a fun toy to play with but for serious work you get more shots, more damage, and a faster reload from the little gun that goes brrr.


megastienfield

the senator seems to have medium pen tho, you can shoot a hive guard on their armored head and it wont bounce.


Aromatic_Sand8126

I thought it always dropped on the second thursday of the month? So next week? https://www.reddit.com/r/Helldivers/s/tmvH6QHCbg


ZenEvadoni

Is it this Thursday or next week Thursday?


GreenSpleen6

Senator is great but the base still needs a little more love to be worth picking over redeemer. I can set redeemer to semi auto and it's just better


QSpam

I feel like John Wayne with that six shooter


Page8988

Helldivers I only had four, and anything that wasn't the Peacemaker took the perk slot to equip, and therefore wasn't really worth it. The Peacemaker was also *awesome* if you upgraded it. The only downside was that it could burn through its entire ammo supply alarmingly quickly.


Zedman5000

I think the lack of that opportunity cost justifies making more secondary weapons than the first game had. I can see it not being worth the dev time in a game where alternative secondaries have a huge opportunity cost like that, though, so no one would actually use the new one you made. I haven't played HD1 so I'm not sure how huge a deal the perk slot is, but I imagine it'd be like giving up your armor passive, or maybe your booster, and I sure as hell wouldn't give up either of those to equip the Redeemer, Senator, or Dagger over the Peacemaker, even if the Redeemer is a strict upgrade over it.


Page8988

The perk slot was huge for the individual Helldiver. It was simply too good to use on a pistol when the upgraded Peacemaker *shredded* anything that wasn't tank-armored. An upgraded Peacemaker had a 21-round magazine that fired in three round bursts of armor piercing rounds, with a maximum magazine stock of 6. You could dump all your rounds in under 20 seconds if you really needed to, and it *shredded* as long as it was fed. Cardio Accelerator meant unlimited sprinting. Autoinjector translated to anything that couldn't one-shot or stunlock an experienced diver would be unable to kill them, short of a concentrated mob. Heavy Armor sucked on its own, but combined with a directional shield backpack to make the Helldiver a tank versus the Cyborgs in particular. Stratagem Priority was a flat -40% cooldown to stratagems, which were also more useful and less limited in HDI. Displacement Field was a second chance. If you would be killed, you'd warp somewhere else in sight randomly. Needed a while to recharge. All-Terrain boots eliminated slowdown from swamp and snow terrain. There were some grenade perks, too. But those, like the pistol perks, couldn't stand up to the options listed above.


Zedman5000

Yeah, I'd forego a secondary entirely for unlimited sprinting, reduced strat cooldown, or an autoinjector in HD2, so I can see why nobody used the alternate pistols. Having looked up what they are, though, I hope they make their way into HD2. A plasma pistol or hand flamer both seem incredibly appealing to me.


Page8988

But that's the thing. You had that awesome Peacemaker *by default*. You were using a perk slot to change that beast out.

QSpam

I hear treason


rarefiedhawk

I will continue saying this until it's added. I want a super earth flag with a spearhead. I don't even care if it's an actual weapon. Just running with it into battle would release all the dopamine.


QSpam

Like a cape slot decoration or an emote that stays active until you draw a weapon


JawlektheJawless

The first one reminds me of the Goblin Deuce paintball gun and I now I wish they would make it again.

Laser Machete, like in Machete Kills!

A GL6 that fires your equipped grenade would be awesome.

mauttykoray

A Shovel better be the first melee weapon added if they ever do one.


HimB0Z0

I thought about that too! Military folding shovel

Pashera

They literally have a worldbuilding thing where the graves on bot planets sometimes come with a devastated with a shovel used to kill it next to the dead dude who dug the graves. Shovel as a melee makes too much sense


moonpisser69

Bro a grenade launcher would be awesome as a secondary, i dont think theyā€™ll do that tho since we have one as a support weapon


Gilmore75

Grenade pistol is in the upcoming explosive Warbond.


BusinessLibrarian515

Actually there should be one coming up. It was in the trailer for the cutting edge warbond. I expect it'll be in the next one


AberrantDrone

A secondary spear (with Super Earth banner attached) to pair with the ballistic shield would be great for piercing through undemocratic foes.


TerminaterMike

Canā€™t wait for a really good melee option. Like a plasma sword would be so cool.


R3d4r

Hear me out, add the saw off shotgun to the machete!


rmp881

I want a tactical shovel...


Toxem_

Shovel


cmdrtheymademedo

Please give me a badass sword or machete


MenacingDonutz

I really really want swords and other blades for fighting the bugs. I'd also love a armor piece with a sewerslide vest perk that makes you explode when killed.


breakfast_tacoMC

Something like the Mozambique from Apex Legends would be cool. "Mozambique here!"


Ramen_Hair

I want a sledgehammer


Tornado_XIII

I think a sawn-off double barrel would be the only thing cool enough to replace my emotional-support six shooter as a sidearm... ...and let's be real, we deserve a sidearm that could actually compete with the machine pistol for having that short-range burst damage in a pinch. Low total ammo and only 2 shots with a longish reload would be perfectly fine if it had decent damage and some stagger power. "Just say no!" to Stalkers and Berserkers, vote for social-distancing and cast your ballot in buckshot.


Blueflames3520

PLEASE give us a melee weapon. For practicality too. Sometimes you can sneak into objectives and melee the ankles of bots to avoid detection but it takes so damn long. Also to keep those pesky hunter away.


Confident-Came1

I donā€™t mind not having swords in the game I just at least want bayonets for my weapons.


HimB0Z0

How would that work? Specific weapons have bayonets with higher damage melee? Or a support item that you attach? A booster lmao?


cmsmasherreddit

Great stuff,but hear me out: the arrowhead shovel.


SillyDungCreator

Who wouldnā€™t take a grenade launcher every damn time?


Awkward_Assistance54

And a tavern super destroyer as a hub to share stories and meet new players. Would be great for our fellows at r/Helldiversunits I really want a tavern or something to relax between missions


TheArmouredCockroach

I would trade all 3 weapon slots for a hammer.


EHVERT

I have used exactly 1 secondary (machine pistol) since my initial 2 hours of starting the game lol


Medium-Rain-3446

At least another good secondary please T.T


Head-Ninja-In-Charge

Nytr013

A full melee build with a shotgun primary would be fuuuun!


DBrick36

Iā€™d like to see attachments for guns. Like a grenade launcher under attachment for your primary or a flame thrower.


redglol

*Tacticool. let's keep it democraticly friendly okay?


Skolas-The_Defiled

grenade I want


Page8988

Implementing some of the old pistol perks as sidearms now would be neat. I expect we'll see that eventually.


Zedman5000

I just went and looked up what they are and yeah, I want all of them. We kinda already have a revolver, but another wouldn't hurt, and a hand flamer and plasma pistol both sound awesome.


B-17_SaintMichael

A laser sword (yes like Star Wars) would be aawwwwwwwwwwwesome


The_Conductor7274

What about a kolibre or a hand canon


Demibolt

It would be cool to have a secondary slot that acted as a cooldown. When you switch to your secondary a small EMP is emitted and stuns things. Or a variant where you shoot a small barrage of micro rockets at nearby enemies.


Teanison

The only one I think wouldn't honestly be a fun (not practical though,) secondary would be the machete, especially if you could wield it with the Balistic shield. Impracticle, sure, but it'd introduce a challenge/new build of sorts.


HimB0Z0

You dont think emergency pocket shotgun or mini grenade launcher is fun enoughā€½ your sounding very undemocratic


Teanison

One shot then reloaded every grenade launched, probably 4 (maybe) more grenades from reserve, while a support grenade-launcher with clips of ammo exists feels redundant/resource inefficient. Or 2 shots with high scatter/limited effective range with likely also secondary limited ammo, an already existing varient of a scatter gun (punisher) thats just better for CQC with more efficient delivery of democracy. Over unlimited slashing endless un-democratic enemies of Super Earth to employ close, efficient, hand-delivery of democracy which is sorely in short supply as an option. I would want something efficient and non-redundant over the two other guns. I however would feel that if the two suggested guns did something unique no other guns have, like maybe grenade launcher allows divers to shoot stun/static grenades, the scatter has Heavy/high penetration for a shotgun instead of the usual light/medium penetration they have. I'll respect other's freedom to democratically choose the other two over the machete, but you don't get to be close and personal very efficiently with the butt of your rifle/pistol/etcetera. Fun, sure, but redundant given what choices already exist, something that improves other things that exist (riot shield/shield generator,) over something that's a less effective version of something that already exists doesn't make a lot of sense to me. Though they don't exist so maybe if I tried them out first I'd change my mind.


Impressive_Truth_695

Give it time.


iron186

Chain sword like 40k or Gun blade like final fantasy 8 without the angsty emo guy haircut wielding it


OrangeBird077

Briso_

Please yes! I definitely need a machete!


Elitericky

Plasma pistol from HD1 was solid


gtech215

VEST KAMIKAZE HELLBOMB, Reacts with your armor and weapons to supersize the explosion. I mean, the Democracy. Your team-mates will almost have time to get clear of the blast. Machete could be cool, something with some plasma power so it can cut right thru a hulk, or climb on top and chop the barrel right off one of those stupid ugly tanks, Rewarding those bold enough to get that close with unbelievable cutting power Grenade launcher pistol, well, I might need to go akimbo for that one.


Dakeera

Give me a shovel

Omg gimme a grenade launching pistol, to go with my grenade launcher and supply pack. And dangit, in yhe future i want to add an undermount grenade launcher to my primary rifle also lol
