The CEO literally said major micro transactions would only come if he wanted to fund his warhammer collections too. So even the people at the company are warhammer pilled.

23:21 "Meta this, meta that; have you ever met a woman?"

The UK canonically does not exist on Super Earth due to being an irradiated wasteland, best game ever

They did NOT drop the mechs, the mechs were already in the game but the production planet was occupied. (you could find a few rare mechs on that world to jump in.) Then the player base won the world which unlocked mech production. It tells of many great things to come.

"How about you rail some b****es". I love this guy.

Freedom fact: Helldivers 2 was developed in the same game engine as Warhammer darktide and vermintide. That’s why it can handle hordes of enemies.

RP'ing as a Super Earth fanatic with the community while playing this game has been some of the most fun I've ever had in gaming. My fucking life for Super Earth

The best part is having your Helldiver voiced by Barbie, AKA Erica Lindbeck, AKA Voice 1

“HOW ABOUT A CUP OF LIBER-TEA”

DEMOCRACY IS NON-NEGOTIABLE

Something I havent seen anyone mention is how your ship is actually visible in the sky, along with the ships of your fireteam, and you can see all the lasers and bullets and eagles coming and going from each. Super cool detail imo

Helldivers at the slightest inconvenience: "With ⬆️➡️⬇️⬇️⬇️ I summon..."

Bricky casually creating a commercial that has the energy to be canon in the Helldivers universe

My favorite part about Helldivers is that they talk about "negotiating" with the enemy, and a crewmate at the ship said something about "wishing our enemies would just understand the benefits of managed democracy", when talking about a bunch of bugs who have no concept of anything. It's hilarious

My favorite tiny detail in this game is that all the sound and brightness settings are out of 11 instead of the usual 10. Really set the tone of the game before i even fired a shot 😂

The rant about the meta keeps living rent free in my head, from "rail some b****es" to "Supply guy fry" is all great

11/10 The devs being able to scale up the concurrent player count 100X in a week is epic Chad S tier work.

One thing about this game that seems to be going unmentioned is how seamless the gameplay is. Once you're in the game, you're in. They hid what would probably be a pretty dull loading screen behind a brief but incredibly epic cinematic of you and your buds being fired down to the planet. And then on the return trip to the ship they hid the loading screen behind a mission breakdown and kickass cinematic score. Arrowhead put a lot of effort into subtle stuff that pays off in a big way.

10:30 Bricky: “So, how do you jump into hell?” ODST’s: “Feet FIRST!”

The original game had a semi-auto "rifle" called the CR-9 Suppressor. It fired miniature rocket-propelled fin-stabilized frag grenades, and was the single most faithful rendition of a 40k Bolter I've seen in a video game to date. Here's hoping they add that after the mechs. Or if not that, then the 4-person armored vehicles with giant guns on every side. I'm so glad this game is back and bigger than ever.

“WHAT THE SUPER FUCK IS A KILOMETER “ Super George Washington

"AVE DOMINUS NOX, SHITLORD!" had me laughing out loud. 😂

The fact that it's been out for at least a month and me, having bought it just a day ago at time of writing, was still able to see there was 200,000+ concurrent Helldivers in the current Galactic War is insane for a relatively simple game. Arrowhead really did strike gold with this one.

Fighting Bugs: "I say kill'em all!" Fighting Robots: *"Welcome to Estalia gentlemen, I will not lie, your chances of survival are small. Some may even turn against your friends as living corpses."* Edit-That same quote was used in the video already, I just hadn't gotten to it, rip me lol

I also want to point out the fact that even though this game has microtransactions, you do not have to purchase them because you can earn the premium currency in the game simply by progressing through the game's free Battle Pass, as well as just randomly finding the premium currency in random locations in each mission. Well done, Arrowhead. You made a game that has microtransactions, but they are 100% optional to still become a stronger player.

"The only thing you should be optimising is a path out of your house!" That got me. I laughed so hard I choked on my food.

12:50 true, hearing "armor of contemp" is a nightmare when opponent use it xD

IF you're running low on super credits and want to grab the extra like, 3-400 you need for the premium pass, run on medium. If the game can't spawn rare samples in game, those slots are often filled with medals, requisition slips(100), and super credits(pile is 10). Also, the orange/white or blue/white cargo crates can be blown open with many weapons, including the slugger shotgun, while double doors have 3 drops.

THE CREEK BROKE BEFORE THE DEMOCRACY DID

yknow im just gonna say it because not enough people talk aobut it their sound team fucking KILLED IT with the games soundtrack

"Why are the trees speaking binary?" - Sgt. Freedom McDigBick, Malevelon Creek Survivor

A couple updates on the game since the release of this video for those who are just now getting into the game: 1. Armor works now, and you feel decently durable in heavy armor. Not invincible, but durable. 2. The Breaker Shotgun has been nerfed. Not drastically nerfed, but it had its recoil increased and magazine size decreased, so it's harder to mag-dump the Breaker. 3. The first shotgun you can unlock in the basic battlepass, called the Punisher, received some good buffs and is either superior or on par with the Breaker now

5:50 Hellpod lands, majestically rises out of pod. Immediately gets decked in the face by a devastator. The Automatons everyone.

Tip from lvl 32: If you have valuable samples on hand - drop them via drop menu (hold down on d-pad for PS5) in extraction zone. This drastically lowers your chance of losing them in some unreachable/bug infested place. Just take them from the ground during extraction

The third bomber bay upgrade gives you an extra use of every bomber stratagem, including the 500kg bomb. Running Helldive Autamatons mission, my whole team be tossing those out like candy.

Remember the Creek this game is so much fun and it really has a good player base behind it. I've played for around 50hrs at this point and I've only run into around 2 or 3... unfriendly people, not even toxic. I think the community is one of the best things about this game

the perfect combination of 40k, starship troopers, and a dash of ODST for some extra flavor

Arrowhead won my heart with Magicka, it makes me so happy they got their big break with helldivers2

Ave Dominus Nox, we have come for you brother 7:03

So... Helldivers 2 is just what we all hoped and were promised Darktide would be. Cool.

no the most terrifying string of words is "you are in rage of enemy artillery"

"So... How do you jump into hell?" Well, you have many options... Rooster Teeth job application, Blizzard stocks, "Hard-R" mid stream, ETC.

I love the detail that most Helldivers are less than nineteen years old. The rampant friendly fire and trolling makes so much sense in context.

Well, it happened. The end is nigh for Helldivers, I'd say The new changes coming May 30th require you to link a PSN account to play, and to create one if you don't have one. Don't you love giving massive corperations your data? Especially corperations with frequent data breaches? Especially when they claimed it would be optional to link an account to steam on various sites including their own help page, and are now changing that stance?

That Disco Elysium bit at the start absolutely had me ROLLING

23:24 I NEED THIS TO BE SHOWN TO EVERYONE WHO COMPLAINED ABOUT THE NERFS

23:22 I swear Bro kept spiting more and more facts this rosted more then Salamanders

I love everything you said about the game, PLUS the whole shared campaign feeling it has for the whole playerbase, with missions given to save or capture a random planet each time. it gives you the feeling of being part of a greater expedition even when you play by yourself or with a couple of friends. i hope servers and technical issues will be fixed, but even if they dont, its a hell of a ride

DID I HEAR A FREEDOM AND DEMOCRACY?!

What is the most frightening string of words you can imagine? *Malevelon Creek has fallen*

Malevelon creek stands!

First video of yours I've ever seen and I laughed so hard lol. Definitely sub

FOR REACH! FOR CADIA! FOR THE CREEK!

Community: Can we have swords or something? Devs: The best we can do are dreadnoughts, go nuts. Joel: They get what?👀

Haven't watched Bricky in a little bit. Looking good man. Videos good as usual

While everyone else says this is Starship Troopers or Warhammer inspired. Has anyone heard of Lost Planet? Lost Planet 2 to be exact. LP2 can be played solo with 3 AI or up to 4 players coop. You die in this game.... A LOT. While dealing with hordes of "Akrids" aka giant bugs and sometimes humans. I remember when someone had to enter the mouth of this one giant bug to destroy its insides while the other 3 try to destroy the glowing globules on it. Another mission is on a train getting chased by this giant worm bug that you had to cooperate with your team to destroy the weakpoints then run to the front of the train because it's eating the back. The Akrids are also used as energy source due to the thermal energy these bugs store in their bodies.

One of the best things I've seen is the Helldiver's subreddit was where some guy wrote an entire essay on why starship trooper is a 'love letter to our military' and not a piece of satire against the military

INSTANTLY CLICKED

15:18 "it's a little top heavy" almost made me spit out my drink

The beta Pyrocynical: "they nerfed the railgun, the game is dead" Chad Bricky: "nerd"

13:52 *byw just to point out, the enemies you fight can friendly fire each other as well in case anyone is curious, you can be fighting bugs and a warrior night accidentally merc a scavenger or fellow warrior to the acid barfer melting his escort of bugs to the rocket devistator getting stumbled and firing into his fellow devistator buddies at point blank range*

"Democrashy, manifesht!"

The tyranids rlly said “Tf did we do this time??” 😂😂😂 5:21

Bricky playing Helldivers 2, casually evacuating civilians to the Afterlife.

7:25 ROCK AND STONE!

Also the funniest/best part is that the devs started basically showing in-game the mechs and said hey y'all want the mechs? *Liberate this planet* *And it only took less than 24 hours*

BRICKY!!! CONGRATS ON A MILLION SUBS!! I've been here since Street Jimmy, so excited to see you hit a million!

Already watched this a few days ago, but I had to pop it up again to congratulate you on 1.000.000 subs.🎉 Looking forward to some Mass Effect videos

I NEED this game on Xbox so bad there are legions of hell jumpers waiting for the green light

OI BRICKY. 11:58 THAT'S NO ZOGGIN MARK SHOOTA. THAT'S A SCRAP BUSTA SHOOTA.

28:00 BLACK SABBATH - PARANOID LETS GOOOOOOOO

You gonna connect your PSN account?

50 SECOND DOSE OF DEMOCRACY YOU CANT FUCKING STOP ME RAAAAHHHHHHHH

05:51 is literally the fat Geralt meme

The Balthasar Gelt quote goes so hard every single time.

That mgr joke was too good lmao 27:52

2:18 “I’m from the government and I’m here to help.”

Yeah that player optimization really resonated with me, like let people enjoy what they want, The amount of times I was kicked for not running some meta is just dumb.

0:06 this dude from the helldiver's intro looks like a super earth Bricky. Now saying that no one will unsee it.

This is the most democratically approved review of the game

23:20 PREACH

I think another thing that’s also made this game so good, is the connection between the community and the devs. This isn’t just the usual, “heys guys community patch after 6 months. Have a few maps and everything. Thanks for buying our game”. Instead the guys at Arrowhead are literally following the community’s own story while helping to direct it like their own DnD campaign but letting the community in many ways inspire the direction too. From Malevalon Creek of the community lore alongside the devs fully embracing the fact of it becoming Space Nam for its players. To having a literal “bad guy” Helldiver “who breaks the rules on purpose” To even just joking with the community on their own pages and subs and everything, actually getting involved in real time with the community and its feed back while also just as much having fun with the game and concept. And yes I can’t wait to have NPCs spawning in. If we get NPC strats I’m literally going to turn myself into an air cavalry landing officer just throwing out beacons and spawning waves of boys to serve super earth.

Amazing video; yeah it's surprising you didn't cover DRG yet, get to it Bricky

You’ve mentioned you individual channel before but I came across this by accident. Love your work on adeptas ridiculous.

Bricky is about to hit 1m subscribers. It’s been an honour being with you on your journey all these years. Keep up the good fight Helldiver

I think the voice acting team did an amazing job that a lot of people gloss over usually. If you have used the flamethrower and gotten lit on fire (yes you did don't lie you shot it at the charger and he splattered your now flaming ass across a rock) the sounds of your character in pain genuinely sells it, that shit sounds fucking painful. Same when your character is panicking cuz of an injury or lack or meth-I mean stims.

Unless its been buries in the comments, the 'super sample rock' can spawn on any difficulty, the samples just wont be there unless you are on difficulty 7 or higher. Though a few matches ive found 2 super sample rocks but only 1 had the samples. Good luck to the sample hunters if your matches frequently have 2 of the super rocks

1 MILLION SUBS! Congrats Bricky! Very well deserved 👍👍

2:18 The most frightening string of words? “They took Malevelon Creek.”

5:20 the music stopping and then just hearing the squishing is hilarious

" if you haven't bought it, you're doing yourself a disservice." My brother in Super Earth, I have no PC or PS5. Only Xbox

The speech from Balthasar Gelt was perfect for this video! Loved it.

16:19 This is what this game reminds me of. Firefall. It was just the same way with enemies, the problem with public events was being overrun, not overpowered.

The Railgun rant was glorious, Screw meta-slaves

“The binary in the trees” nice little nod about the fights at the creek

WE WERE HERE FOR 1 MILL BABY!!!!!!! I am so stoked for this accomplishment Bricky!!! I have been here since the good ol case files. Keep doin what youre doin and you will soar.

5:12 sounds like something a bug would say. Gonna have to report you for treason.

1:24 no, she's listening to [Comona from Ace Combat 04 starts blasting at near deafening levels of loudness]

THE CREEK FELL BEFORE THE DIVERS DID!

All I can hear is, “FEAR NOT THE XENOS TO LIVE” in the Emperor’s name we fight
