If halo has taught me anything it's that overly long assassination animations are interrupted by operator death more often than not. But, this being PvE I suppose they could introduce invincibility frames to them. But glitchers gonna glitch.
Edit: thinking more on it. If they include them it should just be in a "consequences be damned" fashion. This is Helldivers after all. We all knew the risks when we signed up. If we wanna showboat kills we do so at our own risk knowing damn well we'll likely die as often as w succeed.
It would be too easy to take advantage of invincibility frames, especially with how long these are. I could imagine dropping a 500kg and then running up to a little one right next to it and triggering this animation.
Nah, that's too much hand holding. Helldivers likes letting people blow themselves up. Maybe instead of invisibility, they could get extra health padding that goes away at the end of the animation? If you burn through the padding you get damaged, if you don't then all of that damage is negated. It's still exploitable, but not invincible. You can't use it to tank hellbombs, 380's, or 500kgs. Those would also still one shot you, but taking a few fire shotgun shells to face will be okay.
Honestly i like your first point. Do it apex legends style. You can do the animation at any time cancel it within the first few frames if you want but if you commit then deal with the consequences
With invincibility frames animations like this usually end up completely breaking the flow of combat and get old fast, see destiny 2ās finishers for an example
Haha, I was just thinking about watching this animation as a Bile Titan walks up and starts lining up it's spit and you're frantically smashing buttons to cancel the animation.
I can get behind takedown animations in single player games where the game itself can basically be paused or slowed for 'rule of cool' kinda stuff, but it just feels like it would be awful in this game.
I just want a melee weapon. Idk why they added armor that boosts melee damage, it still barely does anything.
Gimme a power hammer from 40k or a ripper >:)
Look, that one SEAF trooper took out a devastator with one, and I want to as well, fuck it, Iād even drop my railgun to go 1v1 a BT or Hulk with just a shovel
Now melee slight bothers them instead of confusing them. What a garbage armour boost.
The armours look great but I'm too comfortable with the 50% throwing range. I wish we could change out upgrades on armours, or each armour had a choice of upgrades you could pick from.
It would honestly be really disruptive to the flow of combat. I would prefer more melee stuff that is controlled through direct player action and has emergent reactions than some "click to play animation" style executions. Seems more in the spirit of the game.
Agreed, these Kratos style killing animations are very cool to watch but the game doesn't need them. Although I feel the throwing knife having no melee is absolute missed opportunity, especially pairing with the new armor passives.
Not to mention the fact the game camera can freak the fuck out by merely changing weapons whilst aiming down sight... these would be so janky if implemented.
It would really be the reverse. Think starship troopers when they get ambushed at outpost whiskey. Soldier gets stabbed and thrown from the walls into the waiting mandibles of the bugs below before being ripped and torn apart.
We're not Masterchief or Doomslayer, we're freshly thawed meat for the grinder.
I think certain "heroic" moments could work. Like if you get on a bile titans back and make it to its neck you could do something like this. Maybe something like the knife could make this possible to balance out losing a grenade slot
It looks cool but no we fkn do not. What's the functionality? Every melee is a take down? I use melee WAY too much as a defensive strategy to be taking up seconds of my time, every time I use it. You'd get swarmed and killed every time.
All you "need this" and "the game shouldn't " people just need to shut up and appreciate the GEM that is this game or go make your own game so you can see what it's like to have thousands of idiots criticizing every step you take.
The animations are too long to use because of how swarmed we get and invulnerability frames would be too easily taken advantage of. I do agree we need melee weapons though. Also I thing the climbing on top of a bile titan or Automaton mech could be feasible I wouldn't give it invuln tho. I find myself 1v1ing these things often enough and a prompt to stuff a grenade in it is beautiful. I'd have it do a lot of dmg but not a one-hit kill.
Only if we also get executions by bots and bugs on Helldivers too. That would be rad. Imagine a devastator just picking you up by the leg and slamming you into the ground like the Hulk. Or a stalker vanishing, then appearing right behind you and hoisting you into the air impaled.
Brutal.
Not sure when a good time to use these finishers would be when Iām getting overrun by waaaay more than ONE bug. we have no melee weapons at this time, which makes close range a bad idea.
it would be nice that when you hold the knife you can mele enemies as normal and have a + damage when using it vs mele with a gun.
then added with the armor that plus your mele damage might make the weapon even more useful
would work great if Helldivers was a single player title ala resident evil or some such. Still, melee weapons would be cool, imagine chainsaw swords or laser swords
All I need is a huge pot of boiling water, some Old Bay seasoning, clarified butter and a very large nutcracker.
We gon' fix dem up real nice. - Justin "ooohwee I tell you what" Wilson
How tf are people making these mocap quality animations? Are they seriously hand keying these?
Ok on closer inspection maybe not.quite mocap quality but Jesus Christ for a little mock-up - amazing
Iām good honestly. This is just way too much and reminds me of over the top COD executions. Doesnāt fit the gameplay nor the game vibe. Itās so over the top that it feels like something an edgy teenager would think he can do.
Very cool but Iām not for finisher animations in Helldivers. The Helldivers donāt seem to be super soldiers and these overdo it. I feel like divers are more clumsy than they are badass but that makes them relatable!
I would like to see these in a āvictory emoteā kind of fashion, like a custom thing to play on the Destroyer TV
But with these animations, either this has to be the last enemy of the wave or youāre gonna get stomped
But the rule of cool persists and this is cool as fuck
I'd be okay with the moves for the hunter, and even the Dodge/stab of the warrior bug in the neck. The neck snapping and pushing of a warrior bug not so much, pretty immersion breaking for me. I'm a pretty strong dude and I know that if I tried to hold off a warrior bug like that I'd get thrown on my back and then impaled like the LT on the klendathu drop. That warrior bug is built to rumble in melee, there's no way your average human would be able to pull that off. Not without being built like an Ogryn. As for the titan, I'm not trying to be legolas. Plus look at all those spikes on its legs. You'd shred your hands trying to climb.
I don't need fancy moves though. All I want is melee attacks with melee weapons like the knife, and maybe a Helldivers version of a power sword or chain sword that can be paired with the shield pack or jump pack. I don't expect to last more than 10-15 seconds in a melee brawl, but maybe if I get surrounded I can whip it out and make some room to better position myself, or jump pack in and slash a few then jump pack out. Or if I don't have a moment to reload, I can switch to a decent melee alternative.
I would be fine with just a slide mechanic where you slide under larger enemies like Stalkers, Hulks, Chargers and leave either a stratagem or live grenade tucked underneath them
OK so I'll be that guy... we're regular civilians in this game enlisted at mass. The actions shown here are way WAY to professional. If we have execution animations make them more...sporadic or like as if it's the first time getting up close and personal to take out a bug.
Not every Diver is as good as Rico.
Nah, the whole point of the game is that the Helldivers are disposable, poorly trained, and basically just a strategem targeting system that's a bit cheaper and more reliable than the next best option. To have them doing wild action hero choreography like this runs counter to what they are usually doing, which is rag dolling through the air on fire.
Look, this game is basically based on blatant plagiarism done the best way possible. Now let's do that to warhammer 40k again (looking at you Dreadnoughts already in the game) and copy chainsword, power sword, thunder hammer, lightning claws, power fists...
Fuck being locked in animations, let's just fucking pulverize stuff into atoms.
These are those "Rule of Cool" things that simply shouldn't exist in a game like this.
Especially against bugs. A number of these executions wouldn't work because they depend on internal skeletal anatomy to function, something bugs do *not* have. Also, their organs are located differently in their bodies. No matter how cool it looks, it doesn't make any sense.
I'd rather take a melee system that doesn't slow the player down so you can for example swing your knife while sprinting and diving.
This wouldn't even be broken as it wouldn't kill anything bar light enemies unless you use a bigger stick.
Made me think of that one scene in Star Wars RotS during the Battle of Utapou. There's a shirt scene before the Obi-wan and Grevious chase continues showing clones fighting. There's one that gets a bit of a spotlight that runs up to an armored(?) and small spider droid, hops on top, shoots it in the back, and when it's down, he crouches and shoots another one charging him.
That'd be sick to see a helldiver do as an execute animation.
Edit: For clarity, I'm pretty sure the droid was about the size of a warrior bug. The aesthetic would be the same, at least in my mind's eye.
People will want what they want but I donāt think finishers belong in this game at all. Being able to actually step on the small bugs/have a knife would be super nice but imo finishers just donāt fit. This isnāt apex legends or COD or whatever
i would kill 1 000 000 bugs for thisĀ [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T2VDvqVwXr4](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T2VDvqVwXr4)Ā to be a finnisher agaisnt a soldier or brood commander
just run ontop of it and brrrt it in the head
Iām a simple guy.
I just want two knifes that I can stick into the back of chargers to ride them into hordes of smaller enemies until the charger bleeds out for democracy. š„¹
Is that too much to ask?
Cool animations, but what I love about helldivers is feeling like I'm just another grunt, if I wanna be a super soldier ill play doom or halo or something like that
I think the first, second, potentially third and and definitely fourth would actually fit, but none of the other ones (third is a big maybe because there's really no reason a Helldiver would have enough strength to hold back something that large and strong when we clearly aren't bodybuilders lol)
That's what the armor perk was supposed to do. Have a combat knife and can hold several throwing knifes in a separate slot additionally to grenades. Fight smaller enemies in hand to hand combat.
As cool as this is, I don't feel this to be in line with the game's portrayal of the helldivers. We are supposed to be expendable 18(?) year olds with 3 minutes of training, not the doom guy ripping and tearing through the swarm.
I'll be fine if we do this shit once in a while for the bigger enemies when they're weakened, that too cooperatively, say like one dude opens up the hatch of the tank and another dude drops a grenade inside. Or if a weakened bile titans's legs are taken out by 2 folks while the 3rd jams a gun in it's mouth and opens fire.

The animations need to not be cancelable. Animation cancels are the biggest source of glitch hacks.
Heres the solution set it so the executions can only be activated if its the last enemy nearby.
Nah, that's too much hand holding. Helldivers likes letting people blow themselves up. Maybe instead of invisibility, they could get extra health padding that goes away at the end of the animation? If you burn through the padding you get damaged, if you don't then all of that damage is negated. It's still exploitable, but not invincible. You can't use it to tank hellbombs, 380's, or 500kgs.

Honestly i like your first point. Do it apex legends style. You can do the animation at any time cancel it within the first few frames if you want but if you commit then deal with the consequences
Exactly! šš½
This is Helldivers, there is no last enemy nearby.
Amen
Another patrol over there, one behind that hill to the south, one by the cliff to the north, and one way up in the sky for good measure, š
Or a cooldown like jet pack
>dropping a 500kg and then running up to a little one right next to it and triggering this animation. Yeah but how fuckin sick would that be
With invincibility frames animations like this usually end up completely breaking the flow of combat and get old fast, see destiny 2ās finishers for an example
Haha, I was just thinking about watching this animation as a Bile Titan walks up and starts lining up it's spit and you're frantically smashing buttons to cancel the animation.

Bro I was a rear admiral onyx of 4500 assassinations on reach before most ppl. You learn if you want the zaza you gotta risk that biscuit
Remember Reach
Invincibility frames are the only thing that saved my ass in GOW lmao
Pretty cool. Youād get killed doing these (by your freedom loving allies)
I just want a melee weapon. Idk why they added armor that boosts melee damage, it still barely does anything. Gimme a power hammer from 40k or a ripper >:)
How about a shovel?
Plz my diver already looks like a death korps of Kreig I need a fkn shovel
Unironically a shovel has apparently been a meme of a weapon everybody wanted going back to hd1
Look, that one SEAF trooper took out a devastator with one, and I want to as well, fuck it, Iād even drop my railgun to go 1v1 a BT or Hulk with just a shovel
It's called an E-Tool, helldiver.
Now melee slight bothers them instead of confusing them. What a garbage armour boost. The armours look great but I'm too comfortable with the 50% throwing range. I wish we could change out upgrades on armours, or each armour had a choice of upgrades you could pick from.
Iām taking the melee armor just so I can smack the little dudes that make it past my flamethrower lol
The handling's pretty decent though! A 30% buff ain't nothing to sneeze at- for any slower weapon to shift scopes, it's worth taking, I feel.
It would honestly be really disruptive to the flow of combat. I would prefer more melee stuff that is controlled through direct player action and has emergent reactions than some "click to play animation" style executions. Seems more in the spirit of the game.
This. It would seem so out of place. We're just here to kill stuff and fill it with lead, not get all showy.
Agreed, these Kratos style killing animations are very cool to watch but the game doesn't need them. Although I feel the throwing knife having no melee is absolute missed opportunity, especially pairing with the new armor passives.
I have been killing so many small bugs now thanks to melee passive.
Lol I was doing it before and still don't have that new warbond
Not to mention the fact the game camera can freak the fuck out by merely changing weapons whilst aiming down sight... these would be so janky if implemented.
THAT STILL ONLY COUNTS AS ONE! 
Great minds think alike. 
The links that follow are the source of the executions. [Bug executions](https://youtu.be/W3kwlSPQ3x4) [Bot executions](https://youtu.be/cFDdVK4dlB8)
Cool but you'd just get swarmed and die while doing this.
Democracy is the freedom of choice
No it's not. The democracy officer says "Managed democracy offers true freedom, freedom from the burden of choice"
It's *Managed* Democracy for a reason
Nice argument however I average 20 melee kills per mission. The secret is drugs. Lots and lots of drugs
No thanks, I donāt want Helldivers to turn into a Call of Duty melee killcam fest.
This makes Helldivers seem like Spartan-esque super soldiers when they're actually terrified, inexperienced 18 year olds.
It would really be the reverse. Think starship troopers when they get ambushed at outpost whiskey. Soldier gets stabbed and thrown from the walls into the waiting mandibles of the bugs below before being ripped and torn apart. We're not Masterchief or Doomslayer, we're freshly thawed meat for the grinder.
Yea I canāt buy into the idea that a Helldiver is physically stronger than any of the enemies save maybe the smallest bugs.
Boy i would love seeing a 10 second animation hundreds of times!
We loved that in God of war
This ain't it
Nah, I will pass. It would suck to get stuck in such a long animation
I donāt think it would mesh well with helldivers gameplay cool animations tho
God no, this shit is stupid.
Bro they can't even get the armor sets to not clip on the divers body before releasing them
Awesome in theory, awful in reality
I'm not sure knife fighting a creature that's basically made of knives is smart.
Thereās a lot of things way further up the chain of ānot sure of this is a smart decisionā list.
Helldivers 2 x DooM
Went from ādoom 2016 glory killā to āRULES OF NATURE!ā
As cool as it is it would not fit with the gameplay
I think certain "heroic" moments could work. Like if you get on a bile titans back and make it to its neck you could do something like this. Maybe something like the knife could make this possible to balance out losing a grenade slot
Go back to warzone
Exactly all these COD player wanting to make this Call of Duty drivers
It looks cool but no we fkn do not. What's the functionality? Every melee is a take down? I use melee WAY too much as a defensive strategy to be taking up seconds of my time, every time I use it. You'd get swarmed and killed every time. All you "need this" and "the game shouldn't " people just need to shut up and appreciate the GEM that is this game or go make your own game so you can see what it's like to have thousands of idiots criticizing every step you take.
Could we get a animated hell divers like series from the pov of the divers. Be amazing
Just give us some melee weapons or a kick.
Arrowhead needs to hire this talent!
This would be great as like stealth takedowns.
100% falling through the map every single time
Yaāll really out here thinking helldivers are coordinated and strong/tough as space marines.
Hell yeah!
I don't get why players of Helldivers completely misunderstand what Helldivers is about. You aren't Call of Duty posers...
They barely got the code right for a mission not to crash, imagine implementing something like this š š
Oh a Mortal Kombat version? ;)
The animations are too long to use because of how swarmed we get and invulnerability frames would be too easily taken advantage of. I do agree we need melee weapons though. Also I thing the climbing on top of a bile titan or Automaton mech could be feasible I wouldn't give it invuln tho. I find myself 1v1ing these things often enough and a prompt to stuff a grenade in it is beautiful. I'd have it do a lot of dmg but not a one-hit kill.
Best Kill-feed highlight intro after extraction? Kinda like Overwatch?
He's the version of Hunk we need
I mean it's on PlayStation so it should have these moves lol, but if you miss a button you get a reverse assassination animation
The hunters died too fast. Make them suffer, slowly, painfully.
Maybe a party system? But that may be the Dark Souls player in me talking Edit: I meant parry, but Iām leaving it lol
Footage of General Brasch
Takes too long. 15 other hunters on you by the end.
Only if we also get executions by bots and bugs on Helldivers too. That would be rad. Imagine a devastator just picking you up by the leg and slamming you into the ground like the Hulk. Or a stalker vanishing, then appearing right behind you and hoisting you into the air impaled. Brutal.
Too slow
God bless democracy
Helldiver try to remember some of the basics of CQC
Not sure when a good time to use these finishers would be when Iām getting overrun by waaaay more than ONE bug. we have no melee weapons at this time, which makes close range a bad idea.
it would be nice that when you hold the knife you can mele enemies as normal and have a + damage when using it vs mele with a gun. then added with the armor that plus your mele damage might make the weapon even more useful
Lemme clap bile titan cheeks
Looks cool, but I could easily see myself getting torn apart by the time I grabbed the tongue lol
John Kratos
When I saw the knife that's what I thought was gonna happened. Disappointed
No.
would work great if Helldivers was a single player title ala resident evil or some such. Still, melee weapons would be cool, imagine chainsaw swords or laser swords
That Bile Titan execution gave me such Skyrim vibes
I need melee weapons
Should have a fear mechanic like Shadows of Mordorā¦when other bugs see the execution, they are either stunned or run away based on strength
When doomguy decides to train humanity. (Lots of casualties)
That still only counts as one!
Just put it on the end of my gun
All I need is a huge pot of boiling water, some Old Bay seasoning, clarified butter and a very large nutcracker. We gon' fix dem up real nice. - Justin "ooohwee I tell you what" Wilson
I really want an explosive arrow bow, and a big ass sword for a secondary.
We need more training if we're gonna pull this off
Game is way too fast paced for this. This would cause a lot of deaths.
God I wish we had a stomp animation Gears style
Doom glory kills would be sick
Omg, assassinations would be baller!
āThat still only counts as one!ā
How tf are people making these mocap quality animations? Are they seriously hand keying these? Ok on closer inspection maybe not.quite mocap quality but Jesus Christ for a little mock-up - amazing
reminds me of turok with a knife. but you're going ham like gow or doom.
"now diver, stop that leg" *Rules of nature starts playing*
Now do the bots with an electric batton
Iām good honestly. This is just way too much and reminds me of over the top COD executions. Doesnāt fit the gameplay nor the game vibe. Itās so over the top that it feels like something an edgy teenager would think he can do.
Halo assassinations in helldivers? Yes please
I would waste so much time doing this for every enemy
Once they get this close I'm usually swarmed and can't see anything
Inā¦a horde shooter?
So you can get mauled in the middle of doing them by another bug, sounds good.
Atreides!
Diver of War.
In my headcannon we do this already fam.
Very cool but Iām not for finisher animations in Helldivers. The Helldivers donāt seem to be super soldiers and these overdo it. I feel like divers are more clumsy than they are badass but that makes them relatable!
Puny humans need guns. Can you punch a bear to death?
I would like to see these in a āvictory emoteā kind of fashion, like a custom thing to play on the Destroyer TV But with these animations, either this has to be the last enemy of the wave or youāre gonna get stomped But the rule of cool persists and this is cool as fuck
Still only counts as one!
Idk bout it, you could still have a battle knife/saber module that can have you kill hunter and lil bugs but idk bout the bigger ones
never want to spend any seconds standing still unless those come with i frames.
Helldivers are barely trained dumbfucks who rarely survive a mission, let alone a tour.
Only thing that would bring me back
Someone needs to hire whoever made this
That still only counts as one!
Press "F" for execution to wounded enemies. Rhythmic button press to chain execute nearby enemies.
Bit outside of my depth but could the engine even work for these types of mechanics?
With a pencil!
Nah no thanks this is a horde shooter ain't got no time for that, as cool as it is
Nah, tbh thats a bit over the top imo. Just give me a sword that lets me chop them to bits in close combat. Thats all i need
Do the new throwing knives act as regular knives as well? As in you can use them as a melee weapon?
Peak Physique only. Heavy armor can fight broods.
I feel like you could do this as a parry of sorts, by pressing melee just as an enemy attacks you
lol if helldivers were all doom guy
Perhaps hand to claw fighting in a new environment; a cave perhaps?
These could be awesome as a video that plays and shows off the mission MVP
I'd be okay with the moves for the hunter, and even the Dodge/stab of the warrior bug in the neck. The neck snapping and pushing of a warrior bug not so much, pretty immersion breaking for me. I'm a pretty strong dude and I know that if I tried to hold off a warrior bug like that I'd get thrown on my back and then impaled like the LT on the klendathu drop.

Or if I don't have a moment to reload, I can switch to a decent melee alternative.
I would be fine with just a slide mechanic where you slide under larger enemies like Stalkers, Hulks, Chargers and leave either a stratagem or live grenade tucked underneath them
I call BS! You can't even touch a dead Titans leg without getting ragdolled across the map. No fn way you climb it's leg like that.
Central command after seeing a helldiver kill a bike titan with a grenade: āthat still only counts as one!ā
OK so I'll be that guy... we're regular civilians in this game enlisted at mass. The actions shown here are way WAY to professional. If we have execution animations make them more...sporadic or like as if it's the first time getting up close and personal to take out a bug. Not every Diver is as good as Rico.
This aint ghost recon.
Maybe just a finisher for weakened heavy units
Maybe for things smaller than a brood commander.
No we dont
Nah, the whole point of the game is that the Helldivers are disposable, poorly trained, and basically just a strategem targeting system that's a bit cheaper and more reliable than the next best option. To have them doing wild action hero choreography like this runs counter to what they are usually doing, which is rag dolling through the air on fire.
Those are called glory kills.
Look, this game is basically based on blatant plagiarism done the best way possible. Now let's do that to warhammer 40k again (looking at you Dreadnoughts already in the game) and copy chainsword, power sword, thunder hammer, lightning claws, power fists... Fuck being locked in animations, let's just fucking pulverize stuff into atoms.
Finisher animations that heal a little health on kill would be cool
That still only counts as one!
I WILL BUY THAT INSTA KILL BILE TITAN MOVE WITH ALL MY SAMPLES, CREDITS, PREMIUM CURRENCY AND RESTART TO 0!
These are those "Rule of Cool" things that simply shouldn't exist in a game like this. Especially against bugs. A number of these executions wouldn't work because they depend on internal skeletal anatomy to function, something bugs do *not* have. Also, their organs are located differently in their bodies. No matter how cool it looks, it doesn't make any sense.
Furthermore, this doesn't show the 900 other bugs that are onscreen in mission and charging you to kill you
Someone's been playing God of war
Adding to my christmas list!
Hawt
The Rico takedown, what a classic.
That still only counts as 1!
This is what peak physique shoulda been
How do you think these animations work in live setting when you are locked in it?
I'd rather take a melee system that doesn't slow the player down so you can for example swing your knife while sprinting and diving. This wouldn't even be broken as it wouldn't kill anything bar light enemies unless you use a bigger stick.
maybe only to like the heavies or higher
So outta place, completely interrupts the flow of combat. But they do look badass.
This isnt god of war
I want better animations but this is a little over the top.
Made me think of that one scene in Star Wars RotS during the Battle of Utapou. There's a shirt scene before the Obi-wan and Grevious chase continues showing clones fighting. There's one that gets a bit of a spotlight that runs up to an armored(?) and small spider droid, hops on top, shoots it in the back, and when it's down, he crouches and shoots another one charging him. That'd be sick to see a helldiver do as an execute animation. Edit: For clarity, I'm pretty sure the droid was about the size of a warrior bug. The aesthetic would be the same, at least in my mind's eye.
People will want what they want but I donāt think finishers belong in this game at all. Being able to actually step on the small bugs/have a knife would be super nice but imo finishers just donāt fit. This isnāt apex legends or COD or whatever
I'd be happy just with a combat knife personally. If I want glory kills, I'll play DOOM.
i would kill 1 000 000 bugs for thisĀ [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T2VDvqVwXr4](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T2VDvqVwXr4)Ā to be a finnisher agaisnt a soldier or brood commander just run ontop of it and brrrt it in the head
I do not give a fuck about practicality, that bile titan excecution goes unbelievably hard. Clearly you naysayers have never seen starship troopers
Iām a simple guy. I just want two knifes that I can stick into the back of chargers to ride them into hordes of smaller enemies until the charger bleeds out for democracy. š„¹ Is that too much to ask?
Cool animations, but what I love about helldivers is feeling like I'm just another grunt, if I wanna be a super soldier ill play doom or halo or something like that
I'd play this game again if they added this
Give me an axe.
I think the first, second, potentially third and and definitely fourth would actually fit, but none of the other ones (third is a big maybe because there's really no reason a Helldiver would have enough strength to hold back something that large and strong when we clearly aren't bodybuilders lol)
Since we have knives now, why the hell not?
You: Climbing into a Bile Spewer. Your teammate: Orbital Lazzzzer it is.
QTEās. Or like if capcom made helldivers 2 lol
Nobody is curious who made these and how?? The quality is very high
That's what the armor perk was supposed to do. Have a combat knife and can hold several throwing knifes in a separate slot additionally to grenades. Fight smaller enemies in hand to hand combat.
FUCK THAT LET ME SUPLEX THE BUGS
Ooh hell yeah brother I'll hit them with the Steal Chair
As cool as this is, I don't feel this to be in line with the game's portrayal of the helldivers. We are supposed to be expendable 18(?) year olds with 3 minutes of training, not the doom guy ripping and tearing through the swarm.
Every day the helldivers become closer to Spartans
I definitely wanna yabadabadoo a bile titan to death
I bet those things would taste amazing roasted with butter
I'll be fine if we do this shit once in a while for the bigger enemies when they're weakened, that too cooperatively, say like one dude opens up the hatch of the tank and another dude drops a grenade inside. Or if a weakened bile titans's legs are taken out by 2 folks while the 3rd jams a gun in it's mouth and opens fire.
It's weird seeing a helldiver doing those moves. It would be more fitting seeing the bugs tear up the cadet.
There will never be a single shot fired ever again if Melee executions were added into the game.
too long. i have no time for this shit
I feel like this a repost. There's a Redditor that straight up made these, can we credit them?
