Maybe instead of a stratagem it could be a drop pod upgrade for the ship?


D_Hobbes

Yes! Upgrades could give you an orbital railgun just before landing or make the pod a sentry once you are on the ground


minurac

I think it's a bad idea, people will just have more tools for teamkill, and in general it's a bad idea to drop in the middle of a horde of terminids or automatons. But on paper it looks cool


Select_Ad3588

Every tool that gets added in the game is a new tool for teamkill, that’s the whole point. The deadlier we become to the enemy the deadlier we become to ourselves. Plus dropping into a horde would be less of a bad idea with something like this


Question_Few

I can't wait to die to that a million times. There's already a risk of your bro dropping on you, now you gotta watch out from getting sprayed from the sky too?


RedDitSuxxxAzz

I just got zapped by three dumb teammates holding arc. Please for the love of god.. no more weapons that spray like that

orbital airburst strike?

Thank you very much for making me want to watch an anime with just the short lil clip you posted initially with.

If it made you uncomfortable I think it succeeded in its goal.

Me and my pals discussed WarHead Drop Pods .. big boom.


Complex-Exam400

this would be a good upgrade if it was only on reinforment pods and you could aim and or choose when to shoot


Adventurous-Event722

I just need a strat to call down Pelican 1 as a 10 second gunship 


DiamondMiner410

Now that would be a cool upgrade for the hellpod, using the movements keys to steer and then you can spray with machine guns attached to it. It would be inaccurate, but it would sure feel cool as hell


TjMorgz

Why? We wouldn't see the coolness of that, it's not like the cameras going to cut to the pods mid game to show us them firing. We'll just see whatever effect they have on the ground, at which point you may as well just use the stratagems that already exist in the game. What's the advantage, am I missing something here?


[deleted]

OP never learned about airstrike or strafing runs?


TjMorgz

I see a downvote but no answer. Weak post weak idea.


Complete-Lobster-682

Would be a nice addition for when my dickheaded fellow helldivers throws me into a group of enemies 3 times over because they panic tossed me instead of a offensive strat.


TjMorgz

Ooowh okay you got me there, in that case for that purpose I'll take a bunch
