how to become the ultimate machine gunner - HELPDIVERS

Ойындар

Episode one of HELPDIVERS. in this episode, I cover the ins & outs of the machine gun class of weapons. from the portable buzzsaw that is the stalwart to the misbegotten door stop that is the heavy machine gun, I cover it all in this concise guidance program.
If you enjoy old niche video game retrospectives, please engage with my recently uploaded program: • the GREATEST Pokémon g...
Machine guns should naturally find themselves at the very top of all tier lists. This guide will act as your one stop tutorial to become the master of machine gunning.

thank you again for all the attention on the last video. truly unreal so many people thought my project I made to have a laugh with a mate was worth watching.

    My HMG strat versus bots: Always use fortified armor. Keep the default medium RPM setting. Click the trigger repeatedly, like a burst fire mode. Be crouched. Rarely hold the trigger, just click it faster when you are on target, and slower when you are off target. This thing shreds devastators like no other. Praise be unto Arrowhead for giving us a reticle.

    I'm lvl 148 now, always been a Machine Gun enjoyer, played A LOT of MG43 with Scorcher, and since the MG206 came out, I've been RELIGIOUSLY playing it, I'm not a solo-player but I was still able to finish 1-2 bug helldive solos with it. I'm aware the general consensus of the MG-206, but honestly once you get used to it and become aware of the current issue with the sight misallignment and etc. it's a solid anti-elite pick for MG-lovers. I usually save the ammo to kill Hive Guards, Commanders, Bile Spewers and occasionally burst down Charger's butt in 25 shots quickly with stun grenades. Occasionally it's also very nice to kill clear a horde if push comes to shove, but obviously it's not its main purpose if anything. It can also be nice to destory Shrieker's nest from afar too, and occasionally kill/finish off a Bile Titan if you ran out of eagles/orbitals. Take a good chaff-clearing primary with the MG206 and it's a pretty damn solid loadout, at least for people who are willing to put the time into it. I usually take Defender with MG206, cuz it's nice to kill groups of Hunters on-the-move with the one-handed SMG trait. I also have to use a crosshair program to help with 3rd person aiming too xD.

    Honestly I prefer the default MG because I can just straight up kill the Brood Commanders, Hunters, Hive Guards, Spewers and all in a single weapon without needing to switch to anything else. Useful in a bug breach when you as the machine gunner should not stop firing. Usually I can spot when I am about to get overrun and to move to a better position. But if I get surprised, that's what my Punisher and stun grenades are for.

    The default MG is actually not a bad pick for bugs. Controversially, I prefer it over the Stalwart for bugs because I can basically mow down anything in a single weapon that is not a Charger or Bile Titan, which can be dealt with if needed using Precision Strike and 500 kg bombs. Of course best used if there are also other teammates running things like Recoilless Rifles and Quasar Cannons.

    A machine gunner who knows his business can keep swarms off of you while everyone else can focus on their anti-armor specializations. While the Stalwart can be taken as far as Helldive with bugs, the regular machine gun is recommended for both bugs and bots. Anyone who is accurate and conservative with the ammo on a heavy machine gun is worth their weight in super credits as they can eliminate almost everything in the game. Yes, even a bile titan is no match as it can not only blow out the bottom of the thorax but delete it entirely causing the titan to die. This also includes automaton Striders as the HMG can take out the chin guns but also destroy it by hitting the soft spot in the face on the left side. But even a regular machine gun can with its medium armor piercing can eliminate a hulk.

    Eruptor + stalwart is my go too, but the new smg is pretty good too with the rounds that stun enemies. But i always have the stalwart set at 1100rpm.

    Overall stalwart and MG for bugs and the MG and HMG for bots. The HMG is great option for dealing with striders punching right through their frontal armor and the medium sized bots go down real quick. And yeah it’s more of a precision tool meant for dealing with some of the enemies that are tough enough to take a good amount of damage but using a explosive weapon would be overkill.

    I had an idea for a new backpack stratagem dedicated to enhancing the viability of machine guns a few days ago. Basically it would look just like the Onslaught system on the Heavy Gunner’s back in Synthetic 2, a big horizontal cylinder of ammo with a belt feed hanging out one side. Call it in, grab your machine gun of choice, and hook it up. Your machine gun now has double the reserve ammo and no longer needs to be reloaded, BUT your movement speed is reduced by 10%, you consume stamina 20% faster, it regenerates 20% slower, and the machine gun now runs on heat management. From 0% to 80% heat, you’re in the clear. From 81%- 90%, you have a 5% chance to jam the weapon. From 91% to 100%, you have a 10% chance to jam the weapon, at which point the weapon will not fire until you mash your reload key to clear the jam, and needing to do so with the HMG will leave you stationary because of the sheer size and weight of the weapon. And when you pick up ammo, it doesn’t automatically teleport into your backpack. You will have to hold your backpack function key to gradually load the acquired ammo into the backpack, where your character actually kneels down, takes the pack off, opens it up and stuffs ammo in there. Designed to be cumbersome yet powerful, as is only right for machine guns. Incentivizes making sure you’re prepared for an encounter, allows you to sweep hordes off boards without a stationary reload getting you killed, so your team can handle the 4 or 5 hard targets without getting swamped. It would also allow the Supply Pack to maintain its current niche. Most machine gunner players in HD2 run supply pack to almost exclusively feed their machine guns due to low reserve ammo. Refilling support weapons is only one of the 5 functions a supply pack can perform. It refills stims, grenades, primary ammo, and secondary ammo in addition to supports. So when you’re using it pretty much entirely to feed your machine gun, when you don’t need anything else, you’re kinda wasting your supply pack charges, because they are multi-purpose. A Helldivers version of the Onslaught system would be perfect to give machine gunners what they need while allowing the Supply pack to continue doing its thing.
