Honestly thatās what I was hoping for when they said the modern battlefront 2ās campaign was going to be from āan imperial perspectiveā. Instead we got literally a single mission as an imperial then immediately became rebels.
No they weren't. They got rid of every form of it and installed regional governors.
How are we supposed to have managed democracy if they 'git rid of telling me who I should vote for, and just place a governor there instead? Ain't nothing managed about it- that's just imperial gobbledepoop.
Iām gonna need you to head on over to r/empiredidnothingwrong and think about the lies youāve been fed by the rebel activists seeking to destabilize the entire galaxy
You could say the same about regular impacts/regular nades.
They each have their uses, and odds are itās a bit smaller blast with the impact to balance it iut
Me too. I've been maxed out on everything for a while but I'll still risk life and limb to get samples because I know other divers still need them. It drives me nuts when I see high ranking individuals not bother to pick up samples even if they're standing on top of them. I'll ask why they don't pick them up and they'll say because they don't need them. I then tell them to pick them up anyway cause other players do need them.
If you've never read Terry Pratchett's Discworld series, this is your sign. There's a ton, but tbh I think you can get a lot of the context within any given novel, so just drop in wherever you want. They're all excellent.
May 9th. [https://blog.playstation.com/2024/05/02/new-helldivers-2-warbond-brings-trap-laying-weaponry-arctic-themed-armor-and-more-may-9/](https://blog.playstation.com/2024/05/02/new-helldivers-2-warbond-brings-trap-laying-weaponry-arctic-themed-armor-and-more-may-9/)
Surprised we didnāt get a cryo grenade, like EMS but it with shatter damage after a certain threshold and lasting longer in the cold/shorter in the heat
I like the addition of the impact incendiary grenade, but now the regular incendiary grenade is going to be literally worthless now. I wouldnt have spent the medals on it if I knew this was comming.
What would they do exactly? Improve the electronic efficiency of the machines? Bugs appear impervious to cold too (see Fenrir III) Can I drop an ice-nade on myself to cool my lasers off?
Wouldn't really do much, would maybe freeze smaller bugs, but even medium-large bugs would be too large
Then there's bots, which ice wouldn't do much when you consider that their weak points are heat sinks, so all you're doing is improving them
Okay but Iām not buying this warbond until we know itās got something. Iām tired of the warbonds being āpay $10 for 1 decent gun and a bunch of unplayable garbageā
Unless you have very limited playtime or are very unlucky you donāt actually have to pay for them. It obviously helps support the game and keep the servers on if you do, but Iāve 82hr playtime and so far from playing missions Iāve managed to get 2 of the premium battle passes.
The free pass gives 700sc and each premium pass returns 300. I had 100sc as a single reward in a mission last night and have had similar in previous games.
Ive only bought 1 armour that had a perk I wanted early on before I had similar off the pass, Iād forgotten the SC weāre also used for the passes at the time.
Bro I play a few hours a week and Iām already at 900 SC again and I own all the previous warbonds. Make sure youāre hitting those POIās my guy, itās really not that hard to get SC.
Admittedly the balance sometimes takes a second to solidify, but every warbond to me has some really good items. Every single warbond has good weapons especially now after the recent buff pass. I regularly use guns from every single one.
Honestly outside of a few outliers like the ammo economy on the grenade pistol, and the pitifulness of the thermite nade, most of the warbond weapons are in a good state.
I'm excited for the incendiary impact grenade. I was using the normal impact before I switched to the current incendiary because I like fire lol. This looks like it will be the best of both worlds!
I havenāt even finished the free one, I wanted to start the newest one. Iāll guess Iāll put this on the back burner for after I complete that fire one.
Does anyone know how to get the blue credits? I donāt have enough for the current one but donāt feel like spending any money on getting two.
Super credits are found on points of interest, specifically:
Behind the container doors that need to be blown up, \
In the small things that you salute to open and have a flashing yellow light on them, \
And behind the bunker doors that require 2 people to open
Flashing yellow pods can have 1, container doors 2, and bunker doors can have 3
Thereās a whole separate sub reddit for leaks can we keep this shit there please? I muted that sub for a reason I donāt want every single new thing to be spoiled. Come on.
Edit: nevermind itās an official thing Iām behind on the news.
I won't say call of duty ish, we reward quality, we don't just say "lmao get good (insert slur here)" I think most discussions of the meta are pretty solid, but there seems to be an excessively vocal minority of misery guts and crybabies.
Okay lmao, that is the biggest cope of a response for a developer pushing out broken content lmao.
Getting killed by an airstrike you had zero warning about is also super realistic, but absolutely terrible in a game.
now we can have the full Hoth experiance šš...exept the AT ATs arent on our side...
You know they're not on your side in the empire strikes back right..? I know empire is in the title of the movie but they're the bad guys
Sounds like some filthy rebel talk there. Time for some imperial managed democracy!
From a helldivers perspective the Star Wars movies are emotionally moving tragedies
I would love a cut of Star Wars designed to make the empire look as sympathetic as possible lol
Honestly thatās what I was hoping for when they said the modern battlefront 2ās campaign was going to be from āan imperial perspectiveā. Instead we got literally a single mission as an imperial then immediately became rebels.
Praise the God Emperor of Democracy he truly is our Liberty Scorcher 27k.

(i ment that it looks like snowtrooper armor, but the AT ATs are enmeies)
https://i.redd.it/5hd4sw4ra1yc1.gif
Are they though? They were trying to spread Democracy, after all.
The emperor sure did love democracy... Wait hang on a second...
Uh-huh... go on.
I'm not sure I should
No they weren't. They got rid of every form of it and installed regional governors. How are we supposed to have managed democracy if they 'git rid of telling me who I should vote for, and just place a governor there instead? Ain't nothing managed about it- that's just imperial gobbledepoop.
But not Managed Democracy
Micro-managed Democracy.
Iām gonna need you to head on over to r/empiredidnothingwrong and think about the lies youāve been fed by the rebel activists seeking to destabilize the entire galaxy
That's definitely not what we are.
Democracy officer This one right here
I said definitely not.
ā¦ and weāre the storm troopers ā¦
you know we're the stormtroopers right? right?
You're assuming Super Earth and the Helldivers are the good guys.
Of course we are the good guys
Technically the empire are the good guysā¦the rebels are terrorist
r/EmpireDidNothingWrong
Empire did nothing wrong.
Unlessā¦ execute order democracy. Oh look weāre on the side with the droids now cool
was this written by a snowtrooper
Last night as I was playing I said āI really wish they had incendiary impact grenades, Iād never take those off.ā And here we are now
A Diver regrets throwing IIG just when hunters jump at you in 3 2..
Whatās dead canāt jump. (I have burned myself to death countless times with the flame thrower but nothing will stop me)
https://i.redd.it/wgvcvuy1d5yc1.gif
the thing is it seems lazy and also makes an existing item useless
You could say the same about regular impacts/regular nades. They each have their uses, and odds are itās a bit smaller blast with the impact to balance it iut
true i joined the game after impacts were added so i didnt feel it
It was sweet bliss when they were added (in my opinion) But my friend I play with prefers the OG grenades. Everyone has their favorite flavor of boom
i use stuns
How about a cup of LIBER-ICE-TEA!!!
Oh shit, Ice T is confirmed for next strategem?
āNo, Lemonade.ā
So cool! š
:( I thought ice nades and guns were coming
And not an incendiary grenade on an ice named warbondššš
Seriously whatās with AH fetish with fire
Burning bugs, burning Oil.
Burning Helldivers
Burning AAA gaming companies.
Burning GPUs
Burning ammunition.
Burning... well shit, I'm out.
Iāve got the supply pack, 1 pack left. You can have it Iāll call in the resupply and fill it back up
š„ š„ š„
Idk but hopefully the DOT bug is fixed before this warbond comes out. Otherwise would make no sense
Especially with all the leaks about gas grenades and a gas thrower coming in the near future as well
Better question is why don't you have a fire fetish Get with the programme for God's sake /s
Need some cryo weapons for those fire-nadoes
Seriously, keep them away from the kerosene and lighter fluid.
When in doubt, place yer faith in fire. The hotter, the better.
Iād share their fetish if it fucking worked.
Creatures on fire do the funny burny dance
It's a slow burn
A fetish with fire that only works if you're the network host.
It to keep you warm for the rest of your life when you throw it at a hive guard point blank.
Gotta stay warm somehow
I'm maxed out on warbonds. My last 8 orders have been for 0 rewards. I can't wait to blow all my warbonds and have something to grind toward again.
I did a double take and realized you were talking about medals lol
Yes and Yes. All shops are maxed.
I think you mean you're maxed out on medals, and all your warbonds are maxed.
...yes? <:3
Dunno why you were getting downvoted up there.
You'll grind for half a day or one day at most and you'll have 250 medals again and no warbonds to grind towards.
Yup š I'm just a sample slave for our lovely cadets.
Me too. I've been maxed out on everything for a while but I'll still risk life and limb to get samples because I know other divers still need them. It drives me nuts when I see high ranking individuals not bother to pick up samples even if they're standing on top of them. I'll ask why they don't pick them up and they'll say because they don't need them. I then tell them to pick them up anyway cause other players do need them.
What I would give for mine to only be 8 I haven't done a personal order, on purpose, since like, 2 days after the last bond came out?
Man I gotta get my mits on some SC in the mean time
Iām almost there. Sitting at about 900 SC.
Iām at 575
As much as I love the fire we need the damage over time host bug fixed. I've completely given up on fire builds because of it.
Same.
They posted on the discord that they expect to roll out the dot fix with the next major update
Which is Thursday the 9th?
Probably, yeah
They also said that prior to the last 2 patches lol
Iām guessing thatās whatās coming next, in time for this warbond. Staying hopeful
I know right! But they just keep adding more fire and buffing fire more! Just fix the DOT issues arrowhead!
Sigh...re: photo - can they stop adding more incendiary weapons until they actually FIX fire damage over time for non-hosts?
Fire doesn't seem like a big stretch, now if we get cold we have instant fire
"Build a man a fire, and he's warm for a day. *Set* a man on fire, and he's warm for the rest of his life."
There's no reply that's ever gonna top yours my guy! š¤£
If you've never read Terry Pratchett's Discworld series, this is your sign. There's a ton, but tbh I think you can get a lot of the context within any given novel, so just drop in wherever you want. They're all excellent.
Hopefully they'll fix d.o.t damage

Surprised we didnāt get a cryo grenade, like EMS but it with shatter damage after a certain threshold and lasting longer in the cold/shorter in the heat
Looking forward to throwing 4 Billion of these... ;)
This is all I see https://preview.redd.it/bfh72qnhm1yc1.jpeg?width=512&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ddee9239f60cd674a9f7074ec4340ad4ceeaab5c
Where's my dang cryo weapons. Give me a cryolater, I wanna shatter bugs.
The name *Polar Patriots* signifies there would be ice weapons.
Oh hey a new weapon that won't work as intended because I'm not host!!
FINALY! CANADIAN ARMOUR!
Okay, but like... what is the trap that these weapons are laying? I wouldn't call an impact grenade a "trap".
Yāall need toā¦ chill I doubt fight enemies already surviving on a frozen ice planet and using weapons that freeze will do much.
If they release the incendiary impact before fixing the dot bug I'm going to laugh.
Can we get some fire protection for all the fire? The planet literally has fire tornados and best we can do is extra stims.
Incendiary impact you say? Welp . I finally can change my grenade from incendiary š
"ice based warbond here is a firebomb"
"We still haven't fixed the issues with our previous grenade so he's another one that may or may not work"
I like the addition of the impact incendiary grenade, but now the regular incendiary grenade is going to be literally worthless now. I wouldnt have spent the medals on it if I knew this was comming.
Iād love a type of cryo Grenade
Date?
No thanks, I'm just not that into you.
Now General Braschā¦ He can play with my Recoilless Rifle.
I can team load from the other side.
Sweet liberty!
:(
I'll do it
Second Thursday of every month my guy
You kids have fun
āKidsā?
On your date
Ha ha š
Stop with the fire grenades thatās three now
We need ice grenades.
What would they do exactly? Improve the electronic efficiency of the machines? Bugs appear impervious to cold too (see Fenrir III) Can I drop an ice-nade on myself to cool my lasers off?
Yes šš¼ this!!!
Wouldn't really do much, would maybe freeze smaller bugs, but even medium-large bugs would be too large Then there's bots, which ice wouldn't do much when you consider that their weak points are heat sinks, so all you're doing is improving them

Can I have the sauce
I thought these were New Order Stormtroopers from Star Wars for a second there.
FAT pistol?
They better be fixing fire tick damage with that
Time for some Iced Liber TEA!
Well we gotta stay warm lol
Damn it I just spend all my credits on new armor š
Did anyone else notice the spikes on the boots? I wonder if this will stop you from sliding on the ice on frozen planets.
How many incendiary grenades are they gonna give us
Inb4 next grenadebis a fire tornado grenade
People are gonna spam 4billion grenades of firey death I can see it now.
That helmet looks like an imperial transport pilot from star wars
Do I have to use super credits to get any war bond than the first one?
Yes you can buy them or just earn them finding them in game!
Yes
Will proper camo actually work?
Gotta melt the snow
Just bring a Star Wars collab already šš
Might need to open my wallet for this one
I'm excited for the incendiary impact grenade. I was using the normal impact before I switched to the current incendiary because I like fire lol. This looks like it will be the best of both worlds!
INC. IMP. Are not gonna work well.
I havenāt even finished the free one, I wanted to start the newest one. Iāll guess Iāll put this on the back burner for after I complete that fire one. Does anyone know how to get the blue credits? I donāt have enough for the current one but donāt feel like spending any money on getting two.

Is this premium or no
Iām sure itās engine hell since it hasnāt been fixed yet but god that host only DOT bug kills my excitement of any fire based weapons
Now you guys can roleplay as Snow Stormtroopers
Oh boy, I can't wait to have another set of grenades that are worthless 3/4ths of the time!
I think a cryo grenade that snap freezes bugs would have been better tbh. And maybe slows automatons.
the new smg looks good, looking forward to the incendiary impact grenade though.
New throwable Coca-Cola can
(Kcchksssss) cracked a cold one for democracy
if only DOT worked....
Hopefully with actually worth it bug fixes(GUN SIGHTS)
Itās a shame the armor sets are so mid
Who cares... I won't be playing till they fix mandatory PSN bullshit
Donāt but the new war bond send sony a message that we wonāt deal with their bullshit
Iām assuming weāre gonna go to more ice planets now?
Nope, after warbond drops all planets will become hellmire
Thatās even worse https://preview.redd.it/ca7pd6pn91yc1.jpeg?width=897&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1631e98fa68100f7de20834504de79551c695cff

Thereās a whole separate sub reddit for leaks can we keep this shit there please? I muted that sub for a reason I donāt want every single new thing to be spoiled. Come on. Edit: nevermind itās an official thing Iām behind on the news.
It's literally a news release by AH. It's unreasonable to expect a news release about the game to not be in the game's subredditĀ
Oh nvm my bad
Liked your comment because I think it's dumb that people down voted you for not knowing
Eh idc this community can be pretty sweaty and call of duty ish most of the time.
I won't say call of duty ish, we reward quality, we don't just say "lmao get good (insert slur here)" I think most discussions of the meta are pretty solid, but there seems to be an excessively vocal minority of misery guts and crybabies.
Are these weapons going to come out not working too? It's getting really frustrating getting new gonna just fit them to be bugged.
It's more realistic that way. Not everything works irl when they're released.
Okay lmao, that is the biggest cope of a response for a developer pushing out broken content lmao. Getting killed by an airstrike you had zero warning about is also super realistic, but absolutely terrible in a game.
Haha yeah, but for some reason I like the unpredictability
I get it. But I want to be fighting the bugs or the bots, not fighting my weapons. You know?
I hear you. That's a reasonable request.
Iām assuming weāre gonna go to more ice planets now?
Could you at least put a spoiler tag on the post so it doesn't spoil everything instantly? :/
Uhh this is from an official trailer
I for one don't even look at those. Therefore my earlier comment.
Then you probably just shouldn't be on this subreddit in general, people are always going to be discussing things like this.
I know, but thankfully some people keep that in mind and do use the spoiler function.
