Flamethrower is still insane for solo play vs bugs
Hopefully this video will help you see a new light into easily extracting on helldiver difficulty
Enjoy!

I see this man soloing the hardest difficulty and it inspires me to fight harder for democracy. I can only solo suicide missions as of now but I will strive to do better. FOR LIBERTY!
hello
I only play solo because lately randoms seem to for some reason leave their lobby on public but insta kick people before they even load into the game. Doesn't feel good to spend a minute in matchmaking, load halfway in, and get kicked before loading multiple times in a row
@@Xoilen yeah people are toxic like that as they look at your level and assume you are not good at the game
@@Xoilen But matchmaking only takes a couple of seconds
@@AceKing1428 I'm lvl 47 and i've been kicked from a couple games, only 1 time it wasn't before the game started. I think sometimes ppl forget to take off public MM if they only want to play with their friends but thats just my experiance
Devs should give the guard dogs the ability to open two button doors with solo players. Would limit backpack options, but, trade-offs
I wish you could turn the damn thing off, it ruins stealth missions pretty hard
You wish you could turn off the guard dog because it's bad for stealth missions? Just don't bring it, lol. I'm certain there are other kits better for stealth if that's what you're going for.
@@BAGELMENSK better yet, the Guard Dog should not engage when you're crouching and nothing is shooting or attacking you.
@@gabzsy4924just feels like a waste of the developers time when they could be fixing other issues in the game. The guard dog as a tool is not meant for stealth missions, so it should not be used for stealth missions. You are already not taking much risk fighting bugs or terminids while sneaking around, so you shouldnt need a guard helping you melt enemies on top of that playstyle.
@@BAGELMENSKcan you not turn it off with the backpack button? I thought u can with the nr 5 or something like how you resupply with the support pack…
my runs didnt look like that where are the 4 chargers + 2 biletitans on the first 30 secs?
If each bug breach call summons a Charger and a Bile Titan that means you'll have 2 Chargers and 2 Bile Titans on two bug breach signals I think it depends on the mission/planet too. I think this Helldive run would have gone very differently had he faced Bile Spewers.
he literally explained why. He doesn't let the reinforcement for bug breaches get called off. "It's a good thing thise reinforcements didn't go off or that would've been very bad". Direct qoute 1:40 in the video. He literally explains why.
One of the biggest mistake of most helldivers is just shooting everything they see. If you keep aggroing the map you have more chances for more bug breaches. Moreover the developers said that using stratagems actually pings the map with sounds and brings patrols towards your location. So the more you fight the more fight you bring back to you.
@@dankbonkripper2845 I think your timing is off. The breach at 1:40 does spawn a titan and he doesn't say that. However, his other breaches do not spawn titans. At one point, he had 3 breaches active. Still no titans. That is a massive difference from how my, and assumedly sermegas, bug breaches behave.
Same, i spawn and theres already 2 chargers minimum
Nice run dude. That recovery from 37.30 was insane - GG! Also really glad you had commentary for this one - it’s great to hear you talk through your decision making process. Keep them coming please.
If you type it with a ":" then it turns blue and gives you the timestamp in the video. 37:30
Fully agree abt the commentary
@@96Logan Thats kind of you Helldiver. Many thanks!
@@rossy1704 🫡 For DEMOCRACY!
Totally agree. This guy has a very chill way of speaking and his voice is pretty calming. I also like that he says why he is doing different things and actually comments on stuff happening around him.
I definitely prefer with commentary! I love hearing your inputs on why you are doing things, it really helps me learn!
Good stuff my guy! Regarding the voice-overs: While all your videos are essentially extended montages, with the addition of live commentary they become the best solo guides out there. This is because we get to see you explain and demonstrate your concepts at the same time. Even as someone who is comfortable with the game, I still enjoy hearing someone articulate things that I had only intuited until now.
100% agree with this comment!!
Definitely got way more out of this commentary episode than all the "tips & tricks" of most other videos. Not only `what,` & `how.` but also `when.` Great video!
And it is very much about the when.
Love the commentary, takes it to another level. I learned a lot thanks to you
A pretty good tip about the mech is that you don't have to waste ammo on small stuff like the mini hunters, scavengers, or the super tiny bile spitters, you can just step on those and save the ammo for warriors and stuff
Yeah you can kill those small fry by just walking on them, lol
Not the best tip
Melee is bugged. Sometimes it doesn’t work. Plus there’s that really stupid bug where you can blow yourself up with your own missile if you turn and fire a certain way.
Ahhhh…just the TIP… I needed; thank you >:3
15:10 somehow a single cluster bomb got separated and fell down slower than the rest and further away, its either a quirk of this stratagem or something funky happened like the cluster bomb ricocheting off of something or the other explosions propelled it further lol.
Automatons are sabotaging our eagles
It's very hard to tell, but I think you're right, a single cluster bomb ricocheted somehow and got stuck in that bug.
Wow good catch. I thought he got hit in the back and his backpack exploded but if you slow it down to 0.25x speed you can actually see the rogue sub-munition.
@@MR-ym3hg plus he was extra unlucky that his shield went down just moments before
You can actually see it if you go frame by frame using , and . on desktop
awesome vid!!! preffer to hear you its like answering questions popping out of my mind seeing your play at the same time yeah lots of great info and tactics great work
Commentary was useful. Just started myself so nowhere close to unlocking the necessary tools. This really helps not just showing that solo helldive bugs is possible, but how to do it. Thanks c:
These videos are sick. Learn a ton from these because you talk about your decisions, strats and how to tackle things. good stuff!
I used to love the flamethrower and it’s still a lot of fun, but once you master the arc thrower… you can’t go back. It one shots hunters, one shots warriors, two shots hive guards, two shots the mini chargers (forgot the name). Admittedly it’s not the best against the other bugs like the stalker, but I just use the punisher for those because the knock back from the shots interrupts the stalker so they’re like a deer in headlights, and the chargers it takes 6 shots to the head from the arc thrower so if you shoot then 3 times while they charge them three times after they’re dead in like 10-15 seconds. I think it does some damage to bile titans but I wouldn’t recommend using just the arc thrower against it. But yeah it’s very helpful and fun to use
Perfect video dude, Helldivers 2
Bro I absolutely loved this. Learned literally way more from this than and other"tutorial". You're chill, informative, skilled and humble. Earned my sub
Incredible. Loved this video. Your best one to date and I really appreciate the commentary. Look forward to more from you.
Thanks for the tip on diving if you're on fire. Didn't know you could do that. But it make sense when they say: "Stop. Drop and Roll!"
I appreciate you talking through your strategy and decisions as you went. So helpful.
I love this so much. Videos like these is what makes helldivers 2 interesting for me.
This guy accidentally made one of the best hd2 guides out there.
You think this was an accident?
@@kermitthefraggyeah man he accidentally started recording
I really like the commentary, it definitely makes the run more interesting to watch
I love your vids with commentary, helped me alot did my first suicide mission 100% operation yesterday thanks to you!
Commentary was amazingly informative thank you keep these coming.
Thanks for posting this. Very informative and inspiring! I appreciate the commentary: It explains your actions and strategies and at times adds some humor (“always prioritize hunters…aaaggh!”). Thanks very much, it was a real pleasure watching you solo this mission. Also, the input on the flamethrower was also helpful!
Thanks for the tips, narrated runs are a great idea to be honest. I've learned a lot of small details that i've missed so far. For instance, I always used meds when i was on fire, now i can keep them for better occasions :P I still struggle on difficulty 7, i will try face the problem face-on more and see if this helps, thanks!
Love the video. You should definitely keep posting vids like these with commentary. I personally don't mind at all and it makes your videos MUCH more interesting to watch.
The commentary is awesome. You are the best. Keep it up!
This was a really informative video, much better than some of the other guides on youtube.
Subbed. Great video, learned a lot about radar, spores, and extraction. Thank you!
Thanks for the guide. Going to work on getting 7,8 and then 9 solo!
Great video dawg, impressive how you play calm and collected whilst also talking about your tips and tricks over the entire course of the video. Learned a lot from this, thanks.
Dude thank you for that extraction tip, I was getting really frustrated getting swarmed while waiting for the ship to arrive.
22:05 is spot on. I always say that dealing with a single breach isnt that hard if you have some help or group up and kill it and that you then have way less to deal with later on. If you run off after 2 titans spawn and do the main obj which spawns another 2 titans and then leave that and trigger another breach at a secondary for another 2 titans you now have like 6 titans on the map which is now actually hard to deal with but if you just fought them when they spawned it wouldnt have been that bad.
Hm. Never really put any thought into that. Enemies. Dont. Despawn. What comes, stays. Good advice.
Hence why we keep getting clips of people with multiple bile titans, they just keep triggering breaches and keeping them on the field so then they can upload a video saying "the update ruined the game"
@itriyum this has definitely been an informative video!
@@BoojaxDenemies that spawn from a breach in fact despawn after a couple of minutes. Technically you only need to kill the monsters that guard the objectives naturally.
Super helpful to watch, thanks for the great content!
Commentary is super helpful, thank you for the share!
I am so grateful for your channel and videos man. Watching you play and listening to your commentary is so enjoyable and your tips and approaches have made me a much better player. I just did my first lvl. 6 automaton solo op and it went really smooth. I had so much fun and can't wait to do more with bugs and bots. You've inspired me to not give up the fight for democracy. O7
beautiful video, great commentary too, thanks for all the tips and clean gameplay
Whenever I am not playing Helldivers 2 I'm probably watching your videos since you actually make it entertaining to just watch you play the game as you commentate about it.
I love the live gameplay with the tips as you play. That's awesome information!!! Great video. Liked and subbed.
Very cool, the commentary was great! Thanks for uploading for us!
that was a great watch, thanks! loved the commentary!
Why in every helldiver difficulty game do I get a bile titan with every single bug breach. And you've only had 1.....though you Dispatch even those quickly. Good freaking run. I solo helldive but only with main objectives. And without leaving alive haha. This actually taught me a lot
Loved the commentary, I learned a lot from you!!
good commenting on the video. Very calm, good explanations (im a noob and i love this kind of content). Keep doing these !
What the heck, you make it look so easy. I could barely solo 5 . . . skill issue. Learnt a lot from this, Democracy thanks you.
Love the gameplay and commentary/guide style videos, new subscriber here!
Great commentary! Your gameplay is inspiring.
Great video, and instructions. Currently on challenger and learning as I go. Shotgun has so much AP. Someone said about the flamethrower is not good, but it looks good here to me.
Dude the diving fire trick is brilliant! Thanks for that!
I love these long gameplay vids, awesome content brother
Respect to you. Someone who discovers and makes his own conclusions.
Seeing this gameplay makes me even more convinced that the energy shield backpack is 100% required in higher difficulties against bugs. Having any stray hits from the dozens of enemies that surround you slow you heavily is completely unnecessary and annoying, and very often a death sentence. In the maps with the green little guys that spit on you and slow you its even worse.
I don't even have the game and I enjoyed this, nice aim, cool target prioritization!
Increased hunter spawn is why I’m bringing the stalwart now, I have anti-tanks for chargers and 500 kg for biles. Pretty well rounded loadout.
The stalwart is so under rated, I still use it sometimes at level 40
GGs, with commentary helps get in your head space so we understand movement and engagement.
Yessirrr been waiting on you
Damn, excellent. Subscribed!
Great Run thank you for the video !
You should keep doin commentary on your solo helldives i think its super informative lol
very helpful thanks for the solo tips
Great tips and gameplay. Have no idea how you were able to pick out that radar station at the beginning very well done. Everything looks the same to me lol.
Feels like all the titans and charger from breaches are spawning in my runs :D You rare that you run into more of them in this run
Man you are really good, damn chill
Quick tipp: any dropped supply strategem kills bug holes. Shield pack flamethrower sos supply just drop in right in front of the hole and it will kill it.
Can sometime get stuck underground though . So do keep that in mind
@@shadowkhan422 true
Having been a CS player and loving challenge this game hits that spot perfectly. Just chaos but fun even solo for a challenge.
Love the commentary over raw gameplay.
Great vid!!! I personally like using the Arc thrower since it 1-2 shots all the bugs except the charger which takes like 9 shots and bile titan takes like 20+ shots. Also with the Arc thrower you can charge it only halfway to basically double the fire rate, so it becomes much better
Also has a bug with coop . PC player with Ark thrower can 2 shot bile titans if they have PS5 teammate . Same bug works on Railgun (and is probably why it got nerfed)
Oh sick! Ive only done solo bot helldives and I by no means try to 100% the map
Great video. Just quick friendly FYI: I believe the arc thrower kills chargers with 6 shots to the head, I could be mistaken.
It always amazes me to see how theirs always someone able to do the most in any game no matter how unbelievable
Great vid, love it. Keep spreading that democracy brother! o7
You make it look so easy. Awesome style!
watching this already give me the chills, currently exploring the low level bugs. lets see if i ever get there
DAMN! This went way better than my Solo Helldive video! LOOL
Don't ever do non commentary again. Your opinion holds value.
His knowledge*
First time I saw a 45 min gameplay vid without getting bored, nice tips! I see a lack of bile spewers in the early part of the game in general, while in my game there's always 2-3 bile spewer in patrols and objectives. It gets worse when dealing with bug breach; I have to evade mortar bile spewer and the situation turns really bad. Any tips on avoiding these?
Just started playing 2 hours ago for democracy brother very impressive!
Commentary is nice, good advices.
I didn't realize that there were many others who enjoy playing solo Helldive difficulty. As a fellow solo Helldiver, I have a helpful tip to share: choose to drop onto extraction, and make sure to immediately call in a supply drop. This is very useful when you extract, as you will have one supply drop to take with you, and usually one more waiting for you when you return. ;)
When you explained to dive over the water at the Stalker nest, you can actually just hug that wall when you run, and you basically run straight across the water without losing speed
i just saw John Wick in Helldivers 2 .. i really enjoyed watching .. clean aim !!!
great run btw! i hav to go lvl 20 quickly
you can destroy spore mushrooms with any weapon from miles away... it maybe cost more then one magazine, but is a huge advantage, not having to go close to it. You just have to aim the glowing part under its hat. Also if you hold down the space button, you can climb many things that by only holding down shift your character wont... I dunno about the controller layout for this.
When crossing the corner over the water by the stalker nest (At about 8 minute mark), just run diagonally against the wall and you can sprint across the gap reliably.
Nice stuff! What would be your loadout for automotons, if you dont mind me asking?
Great video. And commentary 100%
Hot tip the breaker incindery and fire grenade work really good at controlling the field of small bug so all you have to worry about is the heavily armoured bug
You can take out spore spewers with a mag on the breaker to the stem of the spore instead of using your nades. Then you would have had enough to clear that nest without having to resupply.
Hey takibo! I realized you're using a cluster bomb which I do for ad-clearing as well, a nifty little trick you can do is throw it on the ground while facing perpendicular to the wave behind you, then dodging at the last second. The cluster bomb would run along parallel with the wave, and I usually get about 20x kills doing it like this. Hope this helps :)
does the radar station appear on every bug mission ? i find myself wasting time runing to each corner of the map to complet side obj ^^ . good video !!! i personnally reverted back on 8 after the annemy spawn rate and speed buff will try again on 9 later ;D
Great video, thanks. But could you say a little more about how to locate radar point on map at the very beginning ?
Have you tried the auto cannon? If you time it right you can two shot chargers on their back leg while they turn around after a charge. Doesn't allow for the shield tho, but it's nice to have a 3rd stratagem. I've been running 500kg, air strike or cluster, and orbital rail cannon with the auto cannon.
Had absolutely no idea the flame thrower handled chargers like that. Appreciate learning that!
Greats coms, great clutch game Gg
Got so many over-reacting over the nerf, and swearing up and down that the game is "impossible" now after the patch. Thank you for proving them wrong.
Elite spawn rates have been toned down in a sneaky patch, business as usual with Arrowhead.
It's pretty funny because you are incorrect, it was indeed pretty much unplayable solo after the nerf. So much that the devs literally nerfed elite spawns and charger's head hp recently
Commentary is back! Hell yeah!
can you do a video where you show all your settings? love the vids man
Great vid!
Yay commentary!
