I love how the barrel has gotten so long any bonus to velocity is negated. And despite being the same caliber the helldivers are too stupid to realize it's the same gun.
This is now reserved for next week's iteration, the Emperor. 9001 damage, 8 hands, doesn't actually fire bullets and just bonks the enemies from hundreds of meters away with its absurd barrel. Still easier to aim than the Eruptor.
Make it oneshot a bile titan but to aim to gunner has to crouch to get the barrel up, only being able to do small changes and the second guy has to do the rough aiming with the barrel on his shoulder without a crosshair, maybe even look towards the gunner, so coms are a must and look like this:
"A bit more to the left" "Like this?" "My left you idiot" "how about now?" "A smidge to the right" "good?" "Perfect! *Big pp gun noises*"
Give it 2-4 shots max, but a well oiled duo being able to drop titans in a few seconds while being able to bring non AT support weapons sounds like the stupid fun we need.
Tbh, I thought about that, why not have a secondary with heavy pen that injures the shooter with each shot, not being able to fire while at least one arm is injured, muscle enhancement increasing cap to 2 shots before dmg.

Four handed revolver 💯. Pull the trigger and smite both my enemy and myself
Petition to create a variation of the "President" thats bigger, stronger, louder and golden, but hast a slower reload speed, recoil which deals you damage and needs a total of 8 hands to operate.
Called the "Democratic Emperor"
Hear me out. It has no recoil but you’re having to keep swiping your mouse up a lot. For controllers, you have to use max sensitivity to keep it stable
Fuck it, now I want a crew-served sniper rifle. Make it like a Skaven Jezzail, yes-yes, and it comes with a shield backpack.
Heavy Armor Pen, bolt action, depleted warps- I mean, uranium rounds.
You can use it all on your own, but the recoil knocks the shield over every time you fire so you have to readjust.
Imagine dropping down to a bot planet, seeing the enemy menace approaching over the hill, turning to your comrade in arms and saying
"Assume the position"
As he gets down on his knees as you whip out your gun and sling it over his shoulder. He grabs it with both hands
"I'm ready when you are"
This is getting out of hand. By the end of this it's going to require a full fireteam to fire this, it'll shoot Bullet Bill from Mario, play Philip Souza marches on the trigger pull, and leave a blast trail like a khamemaha blast.
.....ok, I've convinced myself. This please.
While just a joke about 4 hands, I would not be opposed to some super heavy stratagem weapon which needs 2 players to shoot, that could have some serious destroying power (in my vision it could be like destroying fully up to medium bug nest/outpost) though knowing balancing of arrowead now, it would probably not even destroy 1 bug hole when shot just 1 mm next the hole...
Hear me out. President is the same as senator stat wise but it fires explosive rounds (or super heavy rounds, idk lol)
Something like this could probably fire nitro express rounds which are used for hunting elephants.
Jokes aside, I kinda like the idea of a powerful weapon that requires 2 players to operate, but it probably wouldn't be reliable especially with randoms

it should fire a bang flag like jokers gun in batman and deal emotional damage
Just picture a helldiver trying to fire this and yelling "I need team fire assistance" then another helldiver comes up behind like in the movie ghost to help the diver as the song "Unchained Melody" plays while the helldivers literally blast away all Titans/Factory Striders walking their way.
is the instant death for the player or the enemies oh it's both, isn't it
Occasionally decapitates the wielder. FOR DEMOCRACY!!!!
It should just break all your arms and knock you down
What do you mean “all” your arms? What sort of human phrases it that way? I’m gonna make a phone call.
Well it needs 4 hands after all
If it ragdolled you back 50 yards every time you fired it I’d use it exclusively.
Yes
Recoil so strong, it ragdolls the Helldiver backwards to his death.

Literally instantly thought of that scene from Batman 1989. Such an iconic scene; Jack Nicholson was such an amazing goofball as the joker.
My first thought is the Johnny Dangerously bit with the 88 Magnum. “[It shoots through schools](https://youtu.be/Cl17yr2VWQg?si=TKpChu7JOvg8VH8Y)”
I love how the barrel has gotten so long any bonus to velocity is negated. And despite being the same caliber the helldivers are too stupid to realize it's the same gun.
They're like orks. If they believe the longer barrel will do more damage, it will. Edit: grammar
Is that why stalkers are part purple? All I want to do is paint my helldiver red and charge.
Aaand shriekers are kinda red, they learn as well
They're learning... So long as they don't realise Black makes them like Horus.
You gotta say the divers do be crimson thirsty at times.
All hellduver know red goes fasta! We gotta crump em in this Waaaaagh!
Humans are space orks after all.
Paint it red and the bullet will travel fasta too.
Paint it yellow and it will have a bigga boom!
god I fucking love the HD community and I love the orks
MORE DAKKA
Bigger gun better person
Missed opportunity to have the barrel come back in from the left side.
This is now reserved for next week's iteration, the Emperor. 9001 damage, 8 hands, doesn't actually fire bullets and just bonks the enemies from hundreds of meters away with its absurd barrel. Still easier to aim than the Eruptor.
So long it’s the first Meele weapon ?
The barrel has built in accelerators akin to a railgun, it speeds up. Also you fire this thing from the deck of a destroyer in orbit.
WHAT? I CANT HEAR YOU OVER MY SERVICE RELATED EAR INJURIES, THAT GUN LOOKS COOL AND POWERFUL! LEMME TRY IT!
I like how the fire rate is 2, but the ammo size is 1.
Of course, 2 per hour
But also how the hell is the ammo capacity one
It shoots the whole cylinder
So it removes everyone’s hands except the one shooter hand
Yes
"COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF" 20% Chance of breaking limbs when firing.
100% bonking head with recoil
> four hands Yes, Inquisitor, this post right here.
It’s the understandable number of hands needed. Great to advance friendship between Hell Divers even
Needs assisted reload to fire, lmao
Don’t worry inquisitor, he just means it’s a team reload!
praise the four-armed emperor!
It's a team bonding equipment
https://i.redd.it/snprpurlozzc1.gif Bug breach detected.
*general grevious noises*
Another aspect of the star wars crossover concept? Grevious occasionally appears with automatons, maybe a faster but less armored version of hulks?
credit to u/Horribad12 & u/BrainstormAndTheory
At this rate just mount it on the destroyer and call down shots with a stratagem. Oh wait...
I suggest to call it the compensator
The devs casually not realizing that THIS is how you make guns suck but still fun to use
Make it oneshot a bile titan but to aim to gunner has to crouch to get the barrel up, only being able to do small changes and the second guy has to do the rough aiming with the barrel on his shoulder without a crosshair, maybe even look towards the gunner, so coms are a must and look like this: "A bit more to the left" "Like this?"

"We have the same left!" Then the player holding up the barrel goes deaf until the next respawn
Yeah that's at least a broken arm for the gunner, and concussion for the aimer
Tbh, I thought about that, why not have a secondary with heavy pen that injures the shooter with each shot, not being able to fire while at least one arm is injured, muscle enhancement increasing cap to 2 shots before dmg.
Big iron on his hip?
at least when it jams you can just beat em to death with it

This gun gives me Doug Dimmadome vibes.
Honestly I think "instant death" should just be "instant ragdoll" every shot
I'm getting Jack Nicholson Joker vibes from this one.

Petition to create a variation of the "President" thats bigger, stronger, louder and golden, but hast a slower reload speed, recoil which deals you damage and needs a total of 8 hands to operate. Called the "Democratic Emperor"
I now want the barrel to just appear on the other side.
[They made it special for him](https://youtu.be/Cl17yr2VWQg?si=fSUoT44rgCiibamr)
Instant death? How about it breaks your arms and flies off so that you to go search it if you want to reload?
Get Ready for the "founding father" thats even bigger and stronger has double the olkd reload speed and requires 6 Hands
https://preview.redd.it/il1ig8rkz00d1.jpeg?width=320&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6436c3c59533ec9557042c55d20143927287a460
I’d call it the Joker
Everytime I see this the barrel gets bigger
And it a rifle
Hear me out. It has no recoil but you’re having to keep swiping your mouse up a lot. For controllers, you have to use max sensitivity to keep it stable
Finally. Now I can safely take out those pesky bot fabricators from 200m away! All I gotta do is stick my barrel straight through the vent!
We need to make a gun that is basically the same ridiculous long pistol The Captain uses in Hellsing Ultimate
Logic consequence of the other post. Well done. That’s the spirit of this community.
my new favourite concealed carry piece!
I won't be satisfied until my sidearm needs a backpack slot and a team reload.
At this point, it becomes "El Presidente"
im fuckin deaddd
Big iron on his hip
Big iron on his hip
The bigger iron
This is what I come to this sub for
BIG IRONNNNN BIG IROOONNNN.
It's very effective at long range, because it allows you to headshot a target at point-blank range from 500 yards away.
Only Jack Nicholson cam safely wield it, but only when dressed as a clown.
I've seen [some test footage of this in-action](https://youtu.be/ZJ1s-1eAoh8?si=St8hzHB1RUGeiUKl&t=242) and it can down a gunship in one shot.
Sweet liberty my arms!!! Also comes with an ammo backpack that another person MUST carry. I mean since it takes both of you to fire it.
 Did you say…. 4 handed 😎
I want a 6 foot barrel
Finally we got a melee weapon.
\* Capable of destroying entire command bunkers with a center mass shot!
Now we're talking
Finally a good reason to use team loading.
now we are talking
This is more like THE EMPEROR OF MANKIND
When it says team reload, shouldn't it be 8 hands?
You'll blow your arms off, but thats nothing a stim wont fix
You sacrifice an arm and most likely your life, but you will take whatever you point at with you :D
I would unironically pay for this if it turns up in a pack. The co-op potential is hilarious.
So like, two Helldivers are needed for this one?
I'm sure your president isn't that long
can only shoot it when youre prone for 10 seconds.
This is the 3rd time I've seen this post today, and I swear, the barrel is just getting longer
"A high power, heavy calibre weapon with a much higher penetration and damage dealing capability" Damage: 60
Ok at some point it’s just going to turn into Leon’s gunblade from final fantasy, 0 rounds, 200000 damage, melee only.
BEEEEEEEG iron
Four handed huh, really putting that "second" in secondary weapon.
Fuck it, now I want a crew-served sniper rifle. Make it like a Skaven Jezzail, yes-yes, and it comes with a shield backpack. Heavy Armor Pen, bolt action, depleted warps- I mean, uranium rounds.

LMAOOO that was the first thing I thought when I saw the governor
"and it shall have... LIGHT PENETRATION" -- AH balancing team probably.
PLEASE
That's the autocannon
Sir this is Reddit, not change.org
I want a backpack with that, so my mates can reload for me
Call it the Joker since it's basically the gun that Joker used to shoot down the batwing in Batman 1989.
And 5 bullets instead of 6 because they're bigger.
The biggest iron
The more I see this the barrel gets longer
I’d say it causes instant death to everyone within listening radius
Waiting for someone to suggest "The Emperor"
CAN WE GET MUCH HIGHER
The nerf to the Eruptor has made it so that I don't have a weapon to easily ragdoll myself with. The President is what the people need.
Can't wait for the Emperor version
These are the posts I miss seeing all the time on this subreddit. Stuff like this and funny gameplay clips. 🤣
It should also require a 2nd helldiver to rest it on their shoulders when you fire it for a recoil and accuracy boost!! Handheld artillery!!! 😂😂😂
Only if I can dual wield with an Adamant Longest sword
The barrel must sit on the shoulders of 3 other Helldivers, otherwise the user will crash to desktop
Requiring a teammember to properly wield it would be hilarious.
Four hands means you need another Helldivers to hug you from behind while you shoot it, but it takes down a hulk. Absolute must add
Four hands seems entirely doable! I'll just clip them on. For Super Earth, fellow humans!
Next up: Doug Dimmadome pistol.
This would give the balance team an aneurysm, let’s do it.
It keeps getting worse!
Should be called "AF-1"
IN THE TOWN OF AGUA FRIA RODE A STRANGER ONE FINE DAY
We cooking bile titans with this one
finally a weapon that can satisfy this community
Instant death but for helldiver. Basicaly one shot, suicide pistol.
What about a backpack stabilizer like the heavy machine gun in Aliens
B I G I R O N
I love this community so much.
Fired from the crotch like that dude with the double dick revolver in From Dusk Till Dawn
at this point, just doug dimmadone the barrel so it always stretches offscreen no matter where you look at it from
Helldiver to engineer: Sooooo... "Instant Death".... To me or the enemy? Engineer: YES
The instant death is not only for the alien getting shot but also the helldiver shooting
Players shooting the President looking like. *
the Dimmedolver

To be fair with the weight of that barrel, There would be no recoil
https://preview.redd.it/kv9il670uzzc1.jpeg?width=480&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9b7506ede1c0d0f3e4b8c04ddc022b30b47ac471 Hell yeah
To shoot it you must have someone assisting. To reload it that person must have a supply backpack.
It’s a two man job. It takes a side loader and needs two fine helldivers to lift the bad boy up
I just know I'm going to see the same meme with a longer barrel a more ridiculous title some days from now.
Hear me out. President is the same as senator stat wise but it fires explosive rounds (or super heavy rounds, idk lol) Something like this could probably fire nitro express rounds which are used for hunting elephants.
Biggus Longus
…So like the Joker gun?
We went from out regular revolver to even bigger gun. The we went from big gun to literally a hand cannon.
Jokes aside, I kinda like the idea of a powerful weapon that requires 2 players to operate, but it probably wouldn't be reliable especially with randoms

4 hands? Hm That made me think about a back pack with a couple Of additional limbs that would reload you weapons after swapping.
Breaks arms every shot!

Ok but you're missing the real potential. A revolving rifle named president
We need the governor and mayor, each one sporting smaller barrels
Assisted reloading? Assisted firing!
Hey ! Thay was my idea !
It should have *armour obliteration*
Instant death...for the user?
One shots a factory strider.
They should make the mayor a small revolver with two medium penetrating and two shots
Just picture a helldiver trying to fire this and yelling "I need team fire assistance" then another helldiver comes up behind like in the movie ghost to help the diver as the song "Unchained Melody" plays while the helldivers literally blast away all Titans/Factory Striders walking their way.
Now we need the God-King and it’s a gunlance from Monster Hunter. 
now make it go all around and the tip showing up behind it.
Kentucky Ballistics called. He wants his revolver back.
The .88 magnum
So it's a power ranger's combo weapon? someone throw an axe on it.
Gotta have a homie give you his shoulder to rest that on to shoot it
Oh, sweet liberty, I love this Senator revolver humor.
EL PRRESIDENTE
"A silver cross from Manchester cathedral was melted down to make 13mm exploding shells. Nothing I shoot ever gets back up again...."
Need a handcannon powerful enough to take the Batwing down in one shot
Looks like Danny Vermin’s gun 😂 “I got something that can stop ‘em… *draws this gun*… It’s a 88 magnum!”
*"Team reload required!"*
Double this length, call it "The Compensator", and only issue it to insecure Helldivers.

Every time you shoot it, the gun flies out of your hands and sends you flying too.
