My friend got me this game as a very late Christmas gift. He and I have been having a blast.

As an ODST veteran, this game brings a bittersweet tear to my eye

I love CoD and typically it’s the only game I play. After playing Helldivers 2 for 40+ hours, I cannot get over the immense fun this game is, at virtually no compromise. Endless fun and no frustration had become a distant vibe somehow, Helldivers 2, as well as their team, has changed that for me. I appreciate you covering Helldivers 2! Your content is top tier and I love seeing you enjoy this game so much too!

[RainOCE]

I don't even have the game yet and I'm watching guides in anticipation for when I get it haha, awesome video!

[kevinj]

I am so glad you’re bringing this content here. I followed you for CoD for years but have been taken aback by how much I love Helldivers and I NEED TO BE THE VERY BEST so these tips help. Thank you!

Skip the premium battle pass and work on the free battle pass first. The premium battle pass weapons look better but they’re not. The best weapons are on the free battle pass.

On Playstation 5 you can hold the (square) button and it will display the amount of bullets you have in the clip and you can also toggle RPM or Flashlights for some guns. Good way of seeing how many bullets left to reload.

Side note for PS5 tac-map:
Instead of having to use the D-pad to navigate around, you can just swipe the Touch-Pad instead, much easier

[sethchanove]

My brother got me this game to play alongside him. I have been having a blast! Please keep posting more videos centered around Helldivers!

[sammcallister]

Nice video mate please post more this game is amazing and is going places so much fun

[willparton]

As a long follower. I’m so glad you’ve hopped away from cod, it’s terrible. The best times and fun with your friends is in he’ll diver having fun accidentally blowing each other up and completing missions

[woodenspider]

This game has been the only thing on my mind for the last week. That and democracy of course

[martinkompas]

Reload when the mag icon displays in Red for better reload timing. You typically won’t throw away too many rounds. Use it like a car’s gas meter, when it’s red you have to plan a gas up stat.

[jortmungandr]

Love seeing you & everyone talking about this game. Super Earth needs YOU, so we can stop the Terminid menace

[KARNAGEclan]

We love Espresso covering multiple games, W content creator

[comco]

Loving HD2. So intense yet hilarious at the same time. Keep the vids coming!!

[somebodyintheworld]

This may have come out with a new update/patch, but you can actually see what ammo you have left in your mag if you hold down the R button. It also lets you adjust your rate of fire for the weapon as well

[BlountForce]

So glad you’re doing videos on this game. Absolutely love it

[brucenatelee]

I honestly wish the game had a third enemy faction like other sci-fi games. We got the monsters and the robots, just missing the soldier/warrior types. I did a game today and we couldn't find the slot to put the harddrive, so the mission timer went to 0 and failed the mission. Another mission had us run out of reinforcements and I was the last one, then another player because I died, then another because he died, and we ended up with 3/4 players entering the ship.

I’m absolutely loving this masterpiece of a game it’s fantastic fun 🤩 and yes I think I’m slightly addicted to playing I’m doing my part
