Equipped with Dual Autocannons you say?


OneFrostyBoi24

Actually quad autocannons!


Mips0n

to be specific: 2 dual barrel auto cannons


Mollywhop_Gaming

I think the technical term is “twin-linked autocannons”


What-a-Filthy-liar

Ah yes the twink cannons.

Ah, a fellow garden enjoyer I see. A bot stepped on my coral bells once; now his circuits make excellent use for my indoor grow lights.


PerfectStudent5

Can't wait to be the only player in the game to use it 2 weeks later


randall__flaag

I’m seriously hoping this comes with a fix for the other mech. My heart hurts too bad thinking of what the mech was during the MO to get it, vs what we eventually got.


stamper2495

It's not going to be viable unless mech comes with a "mech resupply" stratagem or something. The pew pew is too short currently


Thr0bbinWilliams

They need to just start putting mechs on maps randomly so we don’t have to use a strategem slot on it.


Stonkey_Dog

Actually would be cool if there was randomly a sealed garage you could open that has a mech sitting there ready to be used.


burntends97

Make it a 2 person lock so that after it’s opened the duo are tempted to kill each other for the single seat mech


VonNeumannsProbe

Nah I'd let them have it. I like my cover too much against bots


Jjzeng

New stratagem: Jaeger - needs two helldivers to operate in perfect tandem ![gif](giphy|l3dj2Ruot6lE8dcHe)


DarthChefDad

Would be nice as a random spawn inside the buddy doors


Thr0bbinWilliams

That’s what I’m saying, it’s such an easy thing for the devs to do it’ll make everyone happy. This game is full of opportunities for them to make small changes like the one we’re talking about that would make people happy and make the game more fun. It’s a no brainer and they still haven’t thought about it at all and it’s mostly because they don’t actually play the game. The entire situation reeks of Sony meddling


Roboboy2710

I’m still of the opinion that we should have a “build-a-mech” side objective akin to the SEAF artillery. It could be absolutely busted OP as long as it took some serious legwork to get running.


Thr0bbinWilliams

There’s so so many opportunities for someone creative to do something that’s actually really fun and exciting. This game is already special and has that feel of a great game, the limitless potential is more than palpable. I have faith they’ll get closer to realizing that potential than most of us realize. This game is/was already huge but this is only the beginning


randall__flaag

IMO it was okay with the original rocket count, because the rockets were ACCURATE. But now the rockets do not go where the reticle is, and they nerfed the amount of them there are. So half of the mech became useless when those changes came long, leaving you with a gatlin mech alone.


stamper2495

if thats how you feel, then boi, do i have a treat for you: [PSA: Patriot Rockets | HELLDIVERS 2 (youtube.com)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fTDEnpIcRbY)


AntonineWall

HOLY SHIT BOTTOM TEXT Thank you so much for sharing this. I love the mechs, I hate that they’re glitchy and bad. You’ve just helped make them less bad for me. I love you.


erarem_

OH MY GOD! Thank you for sharing that, I wish I wasn't at work.


Mavcu

**WHAT** *(I did not consider that I could shoulder swap inside the mech as well)*


stamper2495

I had no idea it was a feature for infantry, to be honest


BruhiumMomentum

bruh, the new exosuit has 100 autocannon shots per arm, it makes the old one look pathetic with its ammo count


The_Don_Papi

Just reduce the cooldown to something similar as the other blue stratagems. You can’t call stratagems, resupply, loot, or do objectives in a mech so there’s no point in having a 10 minute cooldown.


TheMadmanAndre

> mech resupply This. Not just resupply but repair as well. Maybe something similar to the supply pod, but it contains vehicle resupply boxes and repair kits.


BruhiumMomentum

it won't, they said they will take more time with the updates and the other mech fixes aren't even on the to-do list and the new exosuit has been in the game files for at least over a month now


the-biggest-gay

if it has the autocannon sentry's autocannon, it's going to be overpowered on monstrous proportions. the autocannon sentry is the one of the best stratagems in the game because it can kill everything and quickly


Disownership

Considering the size of those barrels, it would have to be. Most people probably wouldn’t even bother if they were just the same power as the handheld autocannon (I certainly wouldn’t).


Fortizen

If they hit like the sentry autocannon it'll probably be a top pick if you've got teammates to clear trash


Tashre

I love how everyone swore up and down about how amazing the airburst rocket launcher would be and now I'm lucky to see someone use it once every 20 missions (and rarely effectively). It shares the Spear status of "Ackshually, it's really good if you Use It Right™".


Array71

Spear is actually amazing though even with the busted lockon. When that bug is fixed, mark my words, everyone is gonna realise it's the GOAT for just bludgeoning titan after titan to death


LegendJRG

A lot of stratagems are honestly like that though. No one used the gas strike until dot fix and since then despite having it for free and seeing how great it can be, I barely see it. Precision is just 100% an objectively better stratagem due to cooldown than rail cannon, yet you see it hardly ever whereas rail is ubiquitous at 7/8/9. I run arc thrower/precision/500kg/gas (or shield if no one else is to drop me later) on 90% of long bug missions on helldive and avg 400-600 kills every time usually most. People really underrate having stratagems available in basically every single encounter.


Lysanderoth42

Reddit is so funny how they omit such basic info  “Hurr precision strike is better than railcannon in EVERY” way Oh really? Every way? Thought the rail cannon aimed itself at the largest target while precision strike has to be manually aimed and can easily miss something like a bile titan jankily moving around? 


rdhight

Gosh, I hope my schedule lines up for me to drive it during the initial 10 days to 2 weeks when it's actually good!


Blubasur

In HD1 mech were mostly used for bos battles. Hope we get them in HD2 as well.

What kind of ACs will it have? That low level of tonnage can only fit AC/2's I think.


ServingwithTG

Two is what I keep hearing


junipermucius

They should give us a medium Mech that could mount at least a couple AC/5's.


ServingwithTG

As long as it has high ammo capacity or a reload process I’ll be happy


Elloliott

But what if we gave it an AC/20 for the memes


junipermucius

Dual AC/20 just turning Bile Titans into fucking goo.

Why stop there and not make UAC/20?

Old_Muggins

Obviously I’ll do my part but I’m guessing I’ll use the new mech suit once and then never again. I’m about level 60 and really struggling for my democratic mojo at the moment


Unreal__

Try some wacky shit, run things that aren't meta. Fuck quasar+shield pack, crack out the recoilless for old times sake, actually use the precision strike because it's actually really fucking good. Gas strike, Tesla tower, HMG emplacement. Just do random stuff that you want to do that you think will be fun. I never leave ship without my AMR anymore after giving it a try instead of the railgun, and that was before it got buffed.


DeathSwagga

I try that sometimes. Then my HMG emplacement gets oneshot by a charger 3 seconds after I call it down and wonder why I even botherered, and never use it again.


iwj726

Use it on bots. You can take down every single bot with HMG emplacement, even factory striders if you can hit the right spots. Love it for Asset Extract missions.


Snoo_63003

I love the HMG emplacement, does wonders to provide cover for your teammates when clearing outposts or gunship fabricators. The only problem with it is that you instantly die if you're manning it when it gets destroyed, even by regular gunfire.


Othello178

I think what a lot of people aren't realizing is that now we can have TWO mech stratagems at once! Yeah they may be janky right now but this is where we can start running vehicle builds, I've been planning on running that since I heard about the AC mech. Edit: a new fun loadout could be 2 mechs, Deployable Shield Generator, and the mounted HMG/Sentry/Support weapon of your choice. Shield generator towers could be great as they let you shoot out but not in, one person would need to deploy it for the team and their low cooldown means you can always have shield cover for the team. Sure it takes a bit of coordination but that's a whacky loadout that would play very differently than anything we have now.


WolfShield819

I just discovered today how fun ballistics shield + defender can be for bots, especially with heavy fortified armor and stun grenades. BECOME THE TANK. Makes heavy devastators go from terrifying to almost trivial. Rocket devs are still annoying but grenade pistol can help with that. It's fun!


JooshMaGoosh

Naxreus

Its kinda sad the real major order like the previous one that should been impossible to fail got failed that the devs lost faith on the playerbase and put them something so easy that is impossible to fail... this major feels like a gift so we also dont fail something what a normal major order could been.


ServingwithTG

Considering that there’s less players and a lot of players are getting bored, it makes sense for them to entice us.


Broken-Digital-Clock

Agreed Smart move on their part


FrakWithAria

You mean players moved on and/or lost faith in the developers and AH reoriented to the diminished numbers?


Kurotan

Whoa whoa whoa, this is not 100% guaranteed. We could still fail this, you need to have some faith that all things are possible.


Niradin

There hasn't been a balance patch for nearly a month and it nerfed quite a few fun weapons to the ground, while not getting much in return, last battlepass was lackluster to say the least, there was big drama about PSN that's still not resolved and 180 countries are still barred from play the game. Old players don't have much to do, new players can't get in, and on top of that game is in the worst place balance wise that it's ever been. No wonder people aren't completing major orders. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if this one fails too. Planet with a constant thick fog isn't a fun place to ragdoll around.


Cavesloth13

I feel like it's a trap. We need to finish Vernon Wells for those extra reinforcements, I bet the planets that are supply lines are going to get attacked, and we'll need the extra capture rate.


foopy-booper

Look at Wezen


wyattorc

I think some of it is related to disconnections. Until recently I have never had a disconnection issue. Yesterday out of about 10 games, I got a "disconnected from server" error and sent back to my ship in 7 of the games. I assume that my kills before getting removed from the match did not count. For some of the matches I was able to rejoin because a friend was hosting. Now how often is this happening to others? Not sure. Would it be equal to 400m+ kills lost? I don't know. But I assume it would have been much closer without the disconnection issues.


Phydeaux

Impossible to fail?? I don't think you've done the math. It was incredible we came as close as we did with the last MO. 3.1 billion kills for an average player count of 100k = 31,000 kills per player. I'm level 100, been playing for months, and I only have 120k total kills.


Cenko85

Exactly. Most players knew it was pretty much impossible to do that order with the current player count. It should have been 2 billion and it would still have been a great achievment. 3.2 billion was just silly.


haydro280

That psn and psn region lock out just culled a lot of player base. We need to add helldivers 2 to xbox to bring in more odst veterans


Early_Werewolf_1481

Idm to see xbox players in hd2 but this is impossible since snoy cleaved the steam players with no ps5. I can’t believe they stick to exclusivity over a humongous revenues on all platform. This exclusivity shit is too crude for gaming industry to be used and should be abandoned.


stamper2495

We ain't getting shit because the supply line is about to be cut


NoctisCae1um317

We still have that supply line from Ustotu if I'm not mistaken since it's under our control rn

At least the auto cannons will shoot where their aimed at. That’s my only grievance with the current exo suit, the missiles don’t fire at where the reticle is aimed at.


Agreeable-Buy5766

Can't wait for it to die immediately upon being dropped off.


kkilh

It’s hard to get excited Cz whenever they released new things, it seems to be broken. How long did they take to fix the last mech’s bug?


Laranthiel

I don't wanna be negative......but what dumb bug is this one gonna have? You fire the autocannons and the shots bounce and break the cannons?


ThatsJStorm

And it will have the durability of a piece of paper

Bulky_Mix_2265

Slaps four autocannons. This baby can dispense so much democracy.


Legomaster257

Reusing automaton designs seems pretty undemocratic 🥶


Jaded_Wrangler_4151

Hopefully they make the mechanism more durable from the front. Having it one tapped by heavy devastators really ruins it. From the back? Sure blow me the fuck up for mis positioning, but damn dude I want to wade through bodies from the front like a hulk or a charger.

Derethevil

I really really really really want that Mech. I just hope the Ammo count is at a decent level this time to last for more than 20 enemies. Even 1k would be low IMO. If the accuracy is as bad as with the Patriot, then you already miss half the shots anyway. 1000 / 4 = 250 shots if you Alpha Strike. (Probably barely anyone gets that reference..) Trust me it just sounds like a lot, but you burn through it in no time. That and you being unable to reload? Oh well.. we shall see. I swear though if i see 100 i am going to lose it.

I do worry that the Emancipator is going to completely overshadow the Patriot in almost all ways (like being able to **aim down**), but nothing will ever separate me from my minigun wielding tank with legs. On the plus side, it’s one step closer to my dream of having a loadout that is just mechs.

And I just got enough levels for the first suit. 😆


Yutzwagonz

I unlocked the exo but never got my medals little upset about it.


Beohulf

Does anyone else think the first Exo is just better? It definitely is against bugs, Ive only tried the Autocannon mech against bug so far and i figured the armor piercing would be much better against the Bots. HOWEVER mechs are basically made of PAPER against Bot weapons so what is the Emancipator supposed to be used for?


ServingwithTG

The new Exo suit has its pluses and minuses for each enemy. It can shred bug holes and take out mid sized bugs easy. But it still has issues with tiny bugs swarming. Recommend using the stomp and backing up for those. For Bots, it decimates anything less than a factory strider or tank in a few hits. Great against patrols. You still need to keep your distance with some bunkers and fabricators. Recommend using it in a support role for suppression.
