![]() ![]() The developers actually encourage you not to explore too much by rewarding speed. Luckily, Helldivers is not about exploration, and the smaller maps feel just right for the amount of content delivered. They are not very large and offer little in terms of additional exploration, but are sometimes vibrant and beautiful. Planets in the game are similar to the extraneous planets you could explore in the Mass Effect series. Drops can actually be used strategically to help thin out groups of enemies as drops crush anything they land on, including other players. These are called in by holding L1 and entering a series of D-Pad codes and then tossing a beacon to mark the drop site. Stratagems are helpful upgrades called in during missions to aid the player, and range from auto-turrets to orbital strikes to ammunition. Upon completing a planet, players receive either a new stratagem or an XP boost. As with any game, the higher the difficulty of the missions, the greater the rewards. ![]() Diablo III: Sci-Fi Editionīy completing planets, players can also earn rewards. Whereas in a game like Destiny I would have liked a more fleshed-out story and world, Helldivers never tries to sell itself as a game with an interesting story but instead it is confident in it’s role as a really hard game about fighting aliens. When a player completes all the missions on a planet, they gain influence which not only increases their stance on the game’s leader board but also contributes to the overall progress of the shared world. Zones on the galaxy map are shaded in as planets are completed and enemies destroyed, giving a sense of accomplishment to the game’s endless grinding. ![]() Players are not just completing missions to advance their own game, they are advancing the whole war being fought by all the players. However, this very basic platform serves as an interesting set-up for the game’s systems. As a Helldiver, you fight for your home planet against alien hordes that seek to destroy humanity. The plot is unimportant to the gameplay and barely present at all. Again, this isn't going to be enforced heavy-handedly, it's not like a single off-topic rant is bannable, but if you start spamming links to cash-for-click sites or whatever, you will get banned.Helldivers is a top-down, shoot-em-up wherein players take on the role of a Helldiver, a soldier in a futuristic war with three alien races. This includes affiliate links and unrelated content. While we won't ban negative comments and so forth, if you have a repeated history of making caustic remarks for the sole purpose of being confrontational, we won't hesitate to ban - regardless of how monolithic you think you are in the community. We're not enforcing this rule as a form of censorship, we're enforcing this because subreddits tend to get lots of new players, and the last thing we as a community should do is make people tuck tail and run. Clearly jokes and stuff are fine, but if you're harassing someone, that's not cool. Other than that, have fun, and be excellent to each other! We're really passionate about the game, so we ask that posts in this subreddit be relevant to Helldivers - other content should go on /r/gaming or /r/games. This is an unofficial subreddit for Helldivers. ![]()
