No repeating the same stratagems, primaries, secondaries, grenades, boosters, and not even armor. Can we beat a full campaign?
The new 2 billion terminid kills major order made me want to run a full campaign, so i figured i'd turn it into a video, let me know if full campaigns are a bit much helldivers
For some reason rendering the video always desync'd my mic audio track, causing it be slightly delayed :/ but hopefully not an issue!
Enjoy!

Jesus an hour and 40 minutes? I'm gonna get the popcorn.
I'm gonna make noodle first 😂
Don’t forget the coke/Pepsi and the snacks😂
Alr got my food
Hell yeah popcorn
That right I’m get popcorn too.😂😂😂
Also, for the rover, he tries to perch himself over your right shoulder, so try engaging targets from left to right to minimize the amount that he’ll shoot across you (if you shoot from right to left and end up with a bunch of enemies on your right, he’ll shoot through you to kill them). Also, don’t cut in front of the dog if you can, of course. (I run the rover to keep the small guys off me. Haven’t got the hang of catching all the hunters and scavengers before they get in my face. They’re also decent at catching stalkers and giving me a few seconds of warning.)
The consistent quality of your videos is truly amazing.
@takibo you get 2 grenades back for the pistol
I have a challenge for you. Take whatever stratagems you want and what ever primary you want. No advanced weapons or backpacks. Pick up advanced weaponry from the map. You can change them when you find another. Difficulty 7 and above. Thanks am really a big fan
I like this. I've been thinking about doing something similar in my own play. You find flamethrowers and arcthrowers often enough to be reasonably reliable. Worst case scenario you find a stalwart and just have some extra ammo essentially.
This is how I like to run as well, all Eagle stratagems, light armor. Head canon is a downed pilot foraging for weapons until help arrives.
Welp, I'll either fall asleep watching the video or I'll have a movie night xdd
Win win with takibo
Nice video Idea. A suggestion, it would be cool to see you play in a group with some other Helldivers content creators like OhDough and a couple other lone wolves to see how quickly you can clear missions together each doing their own thing.
i like the sound of this
@takibo for the rover, best survival tip is to remember it wants to stay on your right shoulder. You can reposition it by changing the direction you face. If you spend a lot of time flipping back and forth you increase your risk of it cutting through you as it repositions. If you’ve got bugs approaching, keep them on your right side and you’ll cut down your self inflicted damage from the rover.
Awesome idea for a video, I love watching you play. Time for some popcorn and Takibo
In terms of the Guard Dog, I actually prefer the regular Gun Dog over the Laser one. It doesn't friendly fire nearly as much. And with the patch that makes supply boxes completely refill the backpack, it's pretty sustainable. It also does more damage in a shorter amount of time (with the tradeoff that it has more frequent downtime sections). Awesome video, as always! :)
Guard dog is pretty good vs bots but rover tends to be better for bugs for the sheer mass of em
I run the breaker incendiary, grenade pistol, impact nades. Its mostly stuff to deal with all the bile spewers, so I also run the light armor in the new warbond with the engineering kit passive. The nade pistol really does help with those spewers. Stratagems: quasar cannon, shield backpack, napalm or eagle strike, 500kg. Booster: Stamina. It not that much different than what you run anyway, and that's probably because I run a lot of solo missions like you do. (Just reached level 80). Love your vids man.
I have nearly the same loadout as you do. Although, i use the medium armor with +2 nade passive. As for nukes, i usually equip the railcannon strike and the cluster bomb to thin out the herd. Ive been loving the quasar lately
Here’s a video idea, you could completely finish a mission with all primary and secondary objectives with all samples (or at least most of them), so you would have to get the radar station to see all of the minor places of interest to get all the samples
Can't really do that solo, the doors that require 2 people make it impossible.
Could do everything but those…
@@MrFoolsDaysjust a tip. The ones in crates and doors are not counted towards map progress (because if you collect them all on map and then go bunker you end on lets say 42/40.
I was actually thinking about how this would be a great type of video to do for helldivers 2. Also its the perfect video for me to have this play in the bg as I edit some videos lol
Way closer to my everyday experience (struggle) than the "short" videos, except i can't aim shit and your aim is amazing.
You got launched into an explosive barrel that was nearby at 8:22 lmao absolutely hilarious and may or may not be something I've had happen to me as well XD
42:09 bro got sent into another dimension
that was a Five nights at Freedy's jump scare!!! 😂🤣👍
Love the long-form videos! For both bugs and bots I use the grenade launcher and supply pack. The grenade launcher becomes your primary weapon, and you keep all the supplies in your backpack for yourself. Grenades, primary, and secondary weapons are all variable. I use the medium armour with the passive that gives you a 50% chance to not die when taking damage. It also prevents chest haemorrhages. Try it out! It's super fun!
ThAtS nOt MeTa. That sounds pretty fun, ill have to do that instead of running auto cannon for the hundredth time
I dont have a youtube channel myself, but if you started a second channel of unedited runs, i would absolutely subscribe and watch them. This is if you tend to complete campains or multiple missions in a row during your normal recording routine. I have a feeling others would feel the same. Only do this rhough if it will not increase your work load too much. I do not want you to burn yourself out and become sick of the game. Thank you for the constant amazing intertainment and channel!!! I never comment btw so i really hope you take off, you and your videos deserve it 👍
I do enjoy watching the full campaigns. Like your commentaries, I feel like a learn a lot as a new player especially from your solo helldiver extraction videos. Challenge runs sound fun too
Favourite loadout against bugs Eruptor/Quasar Cannon/Shield/Autocannon sentry/localisation confusion /scout armour/stun grenades. Stratagems= airburst or gas strike/napalm/orbital laser. That ending was interesting... I think Games Master Joel was and has been watching your videos....🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔😁😁😁😁
Nice gameplay! Enjoyed your choices in strategems. I would enjoy other videos this length
Love the longer gameplay! Personally, the loadout I use for literally everything solo or multiplayer is: Eruptor, Redeemer, Stun/Smoke Grenade, light armor Engineer kit. Stratagems: GL, Support Pack, 500kg, and Mortar/Rocketpods. I try to max out on explosives and utility. It'd be cool to see you run it but I assume you wouldn't be a fan of it since it's harder to deal with getting overrun when playing aggressively.
Hands down best HD content. After each vid I miraculously gained more skill. And I'm not joking. Game mechanics I pick up thanks to You makes experience so much smoother.
More of these challenges please! Super fun and engaging to watch!
Full campaign is really nice, i always watch Helldive run like yours from start to finish to see if i can improve my own run (able to complete Helldive solo myself here and there for a while now) But if it eats into your time and well being, dont push yourself
My favorite loadout for solo helldives on bugs is: Arc Thrower, Sickle/Grenade Pistol or Dominator/Redeemer, Laser Rover, Railcannon, and 500kg bomb. Arc+Rover handle the masses and Railcannon+500kg handle the bile titans or occasional overflow of chargers that arc can struggle with. I find it pretty easy to deal with chargers with arc, though. The stagger really messes with their ability to turn towards you when they charge. Will sub out railcannon strike for other stuff depending on mission type.
Best video idea so far! Loving this! It allows us to see how you use different loadouts that we don’t see often! Great job Takibo!
As someone who loves just straight gameplay i am in heaven with this video
Im a person who loves long content like 40+ min videos but i enjoy your content so whatever is best for you is best for me
Nice video, next will be completing the operation but each mission changing between Light, Medium and Heavy armor, since here only Light armor was used xd
its so funny watching the rover sitting still in the air, shooting in a straight line. and then takibo runs into the laser and then goes "Whaa?! it almost killed me" XD
Personnal loadout in coop (2 players) mission would be infiltrator armor, main eruptor, secondary machine pistol, incendiary grenade, rail strike, napalm eagle, machine gun (LMG, not stalwart or heavy, the first one as it's medium pen) and shield generator. I play semi-stealth trying to avoid patrols. Eruptor is a godsend as one-shots the bane of all existence that spewers are and can clear massive swarms of small bugs in one shot as well as the hive guards. Machine pistol for those pesky hunters, LMG for swarms, warriors and upgraded warriors. If we get a breach I napalm strike it to get rid of most of it while my friend with the anti-heavy loadout (500kg, railgun strike, quasar) gets the big bugs and can give him a hand with bile titans with my own rail strike. So far it works like a charm and we found out that by both using the m36 eruptor and timing our shots, we can one-shots massive swarms with only the main weapon.
You’ve become my top Helldivers content channel.
I love the long videos, also different challenges would definitely be interesting to see. Using different things people don't often use is fun to see.
Wow I had the same idea for a "nuzlocke" style challenge recently, and here you are
Glad i found this full campaign. Shows a bit more then just a single game. :D
Hey takibo, I am watching ur videos for 2 weeks or something and since I watch them, I drop 700-800 kills myself. I honestly like every format that you have dropped so far. I would like to see you doing an automaton campaign, as I have more to learn how to handle those dudes… Keep it up! ❤🔥
Beautiful, thanks for the vid fam. Make more long videos I will watch the entire thing while killing time at work! Cheers
I love this idea of a challenge run. I'll subscribe and hope to see more content like it! I've been checking out his other stuff anyways so I might as well lol
When I work from home, the first thing I watch is your videos. I got 8 hours to consume your content, I dont mind full campaigns. :)
Keep on doing videos like this, i really enjoyed it❤️
This video was awesome. Definitely fell asleep to it last night had to finish it before work 🤣
favourite loadout against bugs: personal buble shield, quasar cannor, eagle air strike(upgraded) if not use 500 and rail cannon strike or laser,dependds on mission, together with braker fire shotgun, burning nades, nade pistol and light armor with extra nades
Last Mission - Being close to extraction and completing the main objective are the two biggest factors in spawning patrols. You don't have to call in extraction, just being close to it. Sitting on a secondary objective right next to extraction first also started spicing things up. There's so much talk about killing nests, but the effect is insignificant compared to being near an active map marker, being near extraction, and finishing the main objective.
I like the longer content. For this game I watch a lot of streamers in 2+ hour videos in my downtime. And yes, make sure you avoid switching directions too quickly with the Rover. His gun doesn't stand down when you cross his path and friendly fire ain't.
You deserve the 33k subs, can't wait until you hit 1 million!
Love how abit of past Lost technology ! Makes current tech look so outdated!! A true bit of magic! Great episode and teachings of a film technique that was used when most of us were not even born!!! Im wondering if bednobs and broom sticks was filmed using this magic tesserract🤔
~41:50 I think you engaged that patrol which called in a bug breach. Afterwards the objective called in the 3 bug breaches you were expecting. Also TIL Orbital Precision Strike can deal with Bile Titans. Thanks for the video!
Challenge runs are my favorite as it shows just how good of a player you are.
42:10 i love how the hunter just despawned XD Like "Fuck this shit im out" And Full Campaigns are fun to watch
I like this format. And the incendiary grenade are my favorite one too.
Solo a full campaign with BAD loadouts. And by "bad" i mean "worst options you can manage" e.g.: Adjudicator BR Regular Pistol Sidearm (the revolver is ok too, they're both fine tbh) Regular frag grenades (no impacts or stuns) stratagems: some combination of smokes, stuns, napalms, 360mm barrage, riot shield (with no SMG, only sidearm) , spear, heavy machine gun, etc. rely on spear or another 'bad' antiarmor option for the heavies (or if its really that impossible, then bring expendables for the sole purpose of bile titan killing)
I hate gameplay videos, but yours OMG it’s movie night with you bro bro
Watching your videos made me a better helldiver. So when you uploaded an hour long video, you can bet i’m gonna strap myself in and watch the whole thing.
Basically 2 and a half videos in 1 love it
The rover tries to stay on the right side of your screen/camera, so you can use where you aim to help guide it in the correct direction when it's firing and keep it from shooting you most of the time. It's not perfect but it really helps to turn your character left whenever the beam starts getting close to you
Love the long vids!
great twist to this challenge to keep it interesting, bro is always cooking
I just Beat a Solo helldive (lvl9) on a bug campaign using the tesla tower and flamethrower, 380mm barrage (very useful for shrieker nest if you have the upgrades too), and 500kg bomb (bile titans and some objectives). Grenade pistol and incendiary breaker. Ideally I threw the tower in a place that chargers and bile titans can't get to right away or save it until the biles and chargers are dealt with and use the tower to clean up. When combined with the flamethrower you can create a hazard field. Wearing arc armor is definitely recommended I used stun grenades to stop chargers and burn their legs and and pause groups of enemies near the tesla tower to kill crowds. Shooting fire at the ground creates area denial for hunters and the others. you can also use stun grenades on multiple stalkers to get you out of a pinch. I had the grenade pistol for special enemy kills and objectives. And I was using the breaker incendiary for crowd control against the hunters but i think any other primary can do.
the more of your usual content the better. i don't care if the vid is longer instead of 3 separate videos - i can always pause and come back later. love your streams too BTW - care to play with your community members (not me, i don't even care for playing difficulty 9 myself) for the funnies in the future?
An hour 40?? LETS FUCKING GOOOOOO Also since you asked for loadout ideas, I have 2 loadouts i want to try against bugs, one for solo and one for multiplayer. Solo: Regular breaker, grenade pistol, flamethrower, impact or incendiary grenades, light medic armour, eagle napalm, 500kg, shield generator. Using this for solo only because 1, i dont want to teamkill everyone with fire 20 times lol, and 2, dot is bugged currently, hopefully it isnt on solo missions. Multiplayer: Eruptor, redeemer, stalwart, impact or stun grenades, light medic armour, 500kg, railcannon strike/orbital precision to deal with big boys, shield generator. The idea with this is to use the stalwart as the primary close range hoard clearer, and to use the eruptor as a hoardclearer and medium armour weapon at a distance, as well as a bug hole destroyer. The only weakness is chargers and titans, thats why i dedicated 2 stratagems to deal with them, and if you have other players with you its not so bad since youll have more stratagem coverage obviously. I got this idea from your eruptor video, pretty sure you suggested the stalwart would work with eruptor, and it does, you just gotta get used to how slow the stalwart moves, especially at close range with hunters. The redeemer helps here. Summary: with the 1st loadout, close-medium range is best. 2nd loadout: medium-long range is best.
Dies to fire: dammit!! I hate the rover man!! How can you guys stand it!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 love the vids man
Awesome video! Apologies if you've covered this before, but I was wondering what PC specs you're running. Thanks again for a great time!!!
A loadout I loved when completely upgrading the hangar was 500kg Napalm Eagle Airstrike Shield generator Impact nades Punisher Redeemer Light armor with the +2 grenade bonus (nowadays if I run this loadout I like switching to grenade pistol and extra stims, so I can use them for filling up the stamina)
Hey loved the video. It’s awesome! Do you have a guide on how you make your videos? Or your game settings?
My favourite loadout against bugs: Servo assisted light Armor set (legionnaire), LAS-16 rifle, redeemer or sometimes the nade pistol for bile spewers and impact nade. Strategems: Orbital Railcannon Strike, Eagle cluster/napalm(I prefer cluster), Guard Dog Rover, Quasar canon,
the MO's going by insanely fast ;m;
Speaking of favourite loadouts against bugs: I am sick and tired of the Breaker, but you would never catch me using anything else, unless I forced myself. I will never get sick and tired of the Redeemer, and it is endlessly useful. For grenades, I forget you can pick stuff other than the impact. I have never unequipped the impact grenade since I got it. For armor; I usually wear the one that gives explosive resistance, since I never use the stealth of the scout passive. For stratagems, I use the shield, even though I think it's boring, because it's just too annoying to go without it. Alongside that, I usually take the Quasar, or sometimes EAT. If I get completely free choice due to teammates bring Quasar action, I often pick Arc Thrower (way too fun). Alongside those two, I bring 500kg, as well as either swarm clearing in the form of airstrike or cluster, or more Titan murder in the form of laser or Orbital Railcannon. I must say, the precision orbital strike looks quite enticing, since i often have trouble with the Eagle rearms when bringing two eagle stratagems. For the booster, I always bring the Stamina Enhancement, prioriticing the full supplies on respawn second, and the limb health 3rd.
28:18 I'm actually enjoying your reaction to using a different set up. You've been using the shield generator, and it became somewhat of a crutch. This kind of game play will kick that tendency to rely on it maybe even find a new unique to you combination.
Loved the longer video
ive been having a lot of fun with the precision strike, jumppack, and railgun. even though railguns trash now, i love charging it up and blasting bugs faces off. for bots, ive been using the ballistic shield with the AMR. super fun.
Little bit of a mic sync delay with the gameplay on this one for whatever reason. love your content
My favorite loadoat for bug 9's is 1. Arc Blitzer - Infinite ammo, no chargeup, multikill hunters at max range, 1 shots warriors and broods, staggers hives and spewers 2. Laser Rover - Keep up with chaff clear, can easily swap shield if preferred 3. Quasar 4. Redeemer - Clear Hunter Overwhelm 5. Impact - Spewers/BT cleanup 6. Engineer Kit Armor 7. 500 KG 8. Orbital Precision
Personally love these longer vids, hoping for a full campaign for the robots too!
I like the longer format videos showcasing a wider variety of stratagems and weapons. It would be great to see you continue this idea until you have used the entire list of stratagems so you are forced to take all of them at least once.
I love how it was the flamethrower meta build that struggled the most.
Try this on your next SEAF artillery: stand slightly ahead of the shell facing where you want to throw it. Hit E (x on controller) to pick up, and immediately swap weapons with 2 or 3 (triangle on controller). Now instead of dribbling the shell like a basketball, you will be yeeting it like a Chad.
the rover behaves predictably, after using it for a time it becomes second nature, practically an extension of yourself.
My favorite bug loadout is Breaker incendiary (if i'm not network host i use lib pen or slugger) Grenade pistol incendiary/impact grenades Light gunner armor (light armor with extra padding) 500kg bomb Orbital ems (it's so good...). It has a super short cooldown, throw it on a breach, and anything that isn't a titan just can't move. Shield/jump pack Arcthrower/quasar/sometimes spear (i use autocannon sentry instead of the backpack in this case).
Says he doesn't like the rover then gets a 50 kill streak from it. Then complains it hurts and gets killed by the grenades he loves. Lol. I love your videos. Just giving you shit. Thanks for posting! ❤
Ther is a very detailed reddit post on patrol timing. everything from number of players, completed missions, closing nests. also saw a KZhead video explaining the post.
I like to run a few loadouts with the light/medium armour with Medic Kit passive against bugs: - Primary: Breaker (Normal/IE); Sickle; Eruptor; Slugger/Punisher if I'm feeling bored - Secondary: Redeemer; Grenade Pistol - Grenades: Stun; Incendiary - Stratagems: [1] Eagle Napalm; [2] Eagle 500KG Bomb; [3] Quasar/Arc Thrower/Flamethrower; [4] Autocannon Sentry/Shield Generator Pack depending on the weapons I bring - Booster: Stamina (It's just too good); Anything else when playing co-op Edit: I forgot to mention why I bring certain weapons in combination with others if anyone cares to read about it. If I'm rocking the Eruptor, I'm running Redeemer with Arc Thrower and incendiary grenade so that I have reliable ways to deal with trash mobs while the Eruptor handles bug holes, certain optional objectives, or simply kill small groups of enemies with its AoE. If I'm using the Quasar or Flamethrower, I'm running any of the other primaries listed along with the grenade pistol and the stun grenade. This allows me to stun Chargers along with the horde so I can kill them fast without too much hassle and move on with the rest. The grenade pistol is mostly there to deal with bug holes. Shield Generator Pack can keep me alive if I'm being too careless as well as prevent certain crowd control effects (slow and knockback). Autocannon Sentry (or any sentry) is a great distraction tool while also providing great fire support. I specifically choose Autocannon Sentry because it can deal with Chargers and Bile Titans more effectively than the other ones.
Cool idea, I might do that myself
I would love to see a series where you rate users' loadouts. Users submit their loadouts, you play a mission with them, and then rate it at the end
What I learned from this video: He really likes the shield generator pack
full campaigns are great good for seeing various load outs too.
I watch it to the point you asked for our opinion and for me personally I do not like overlong videos but I watch them to the end no matter what. For what I personally would like to see would be loadouts that are deemed "bad" by general standard and do a helldive mission. Like, just as example, if people saying "No you cant run all stratagems with sentries! Would not work on helldive!" you could just do that. Or "Mines are bad, dont use mines" and I actually like mines a lot ^^ I can close entrances and/or pathways with them and have to worry less a while. Or videos with extreme challenges "Pistol only" or "before I shoot I have to get into lying position" or "we only kill bugs with bile titans spit" But whatever you will do, You should only do whats fun for you. That way you attract people with similar mindset. Edit: And holy moly... those insane patrol spawns are insane. I understand those masses in 4 player play on helldive but not on solo! I have such ocurrances too but on lower difficulties. It's literally insane at times. And sometimes you stand around wondering where those patrols are... like "Hello? Anyone on this planet?" I think the game is keeping patrols away in some games to throw it into others :D Stay crunchy.
I think it will be fun for Dev to put in a "chaos" or "random" button where you click it and it randomly gives you an loadout and start the mission 😁
Imagine a situation where you dont like rover due to friendly fire then answer SOS signal and your teammate using rover killed you 3x times.....I fucking hate that thing
The loadout which suits me the most for bugs is breaker incendiary, redeemer, contact nades, 500kg, orbital railgun strike, shieldpack, quasar, stamina booster and light spotting decreasing armor with lots of speed.
You should do a glass cannon build. Run everything that does the highest damage statistically with light armor. No fire though that’s to easy. If you die you lose. But if you bring the stratigem that’s gives you extra life’s you get a second chance.
this is like the helldiver version of deep dives from deep rock. would be a cool concept for arrowhead to implement in the future with some tweaks, maybe you have three reinforces per person instead and stratagem cooldowns/uses ammo counts dont reset between missions
certainly its a long video but i think doing it once a week is really nice - like watching a movie. the ending was certainly really strange - maybe even more enemies than those 15 minute mission that ask you to do nothing but kill enemies. do feel like doing this challenge again or other themed builds can be interesting to see.
I usually run the breaker, grenade pistol, stuns, with trailblazer armor. For stratagems I usually use the jump pack, EATs, eagle airstrike, and orbital precision strike.
35:17 Breaker incendiary, grenade pistol, impact grenades, light armor with extra grenades, flamethrower, EAT, shield generator backpack and 500kg. I solo Helldive mainly and this build can handle every single enemy and mission.
TakiGOAT
I love Rover paired with Eruptor and Quasar you can basically solo deal with everything.
The build I've been running for bugs is Eruptor, Redeemer, and Stun Grenade for the basic lineup. Explosive resistant armor with reduced recoil (pick your flavor of heavy or light armor). Eagle Airstrike, Precision Orbital and Shield with Stalwart as the support. Bile Titans are scary but doable. It's when you get multiple of them things get hairy.
Ideas?: I would like you do a run with turrets. One of my builds against bugs is: Autocannon and Gatling, Spear, Eagle pods, slugger, uzi, impact grenade. Your favourite scout armour aswell. I like more the vanilla guard rover, it's not so dangerous (for me and team) like the laser one, and does more damage at the cost of worse ammo economy.
more challenges, kick ass idea
For bugs i run recoilless rifle (mostly because i just prefer it over quasar but its main purpose is anti tank) incendiary mines, autocannon sentry, and gatling sentry for strats. As for equipment i run punisher, revolver, impact nades, and the light gunner armor. Works very well for me as it gives me a good range of options for shutting down breaches and killings heavies in a reasonable span of time.
