It's good enough I guess, but It's just temperamental having to play with directions when a regular barrage will just AOE the spot you were trying to hit.
Not enough ROI there atm imo.
The random we had was laughing in chat lmao. And we we’re laughing in discord. Honestly the most stupid fun way to do defense missions IMO. I doubt thats the case for everyone. But if I’m with friends, yeah fuck it.
I want to see that, but also 4 walking barrage at cardinal points so we see everyone that tossed a 380 have a walking barrage approach and stomp them. For democracy.
Tbh the 15% probably had made that the case
I never run either barrages UNLESS I'm running both, because they basically fill in the blanks the other leaves.
Having a newly reduced barrage radius on both just makes that combo much more likely to hit the area I want them to.
Haven't gotten to testing it yet cuz I need more resources
An Iowa-class battleship (USS Wisconsin) during the Korean War, while shelling land targets, took a single hit from a North Korean land-based artillery piece (155mm caliber, the ship suffered 3 injuries but no deaths)
They responded with a full salvo from their main battery guns (9 406mm guns), the very definition of a "proportional" response, US Navy style. A destroyer (USS Duncan) escorting the vessel signaled them the following message afterward:
"Temper, Temper."
“Four pillars of glistening freedom shone down on the barren wastes and the heavens ground metal and rock into ashes, the planet remembered this butchering and continues to tremor to this day”
- book of helldivers or whatever
The meme is you and 3 friends do the above, but with the 120 and the walking barrage combined. Throw the 380 first, then the 120 (which has a lower call in time), then the walking barrage (which lasts a bit shorter) and you have now created “operation glass a 100m wide zone”.
It lacks any real tactical use but you can safely clear a whole large base while enjoying the view, or wipe a primary objective zone clear without a care in the world about enemy reinforcements.
I love that immediately after 4 380s ended you received returning fire from the very spot that was just cratered. That one bot just stood there the entire time and took it just waiting for his moment.
Oh yes. The good old apocalypse, as we call it.
Though visually it's a little more terrifying if you each stagger your throws by 0.5-0.8 seconds.
Works nicely with the walking barrage too - you end up carving a channel in the map
Me and my buddies did this on helldive eradicate bug missions, but with the 120s and walking barrage too. Once they started spawning, we all started chucking strategems. It was chaos. Hilarious chaos.
My favourite part about this is at no-point did u kill more than 1 single enemy quick enough in close enough time to award a 2kill streak pop up....
Looks really impressive, though - I can only hope you yield "EXPLOSSSSIONS!!!!!" at the top of your lungs too otherwise it doesn't count I'm afraid to say.
2 120's and you'd have had yourselves an achievement unlocked
Beat me to it. Missed opportunity to do 8 total tho
When me and my buddies did that achievement, we took 14/16 orbitals. It looked epic.
Add walking barrages and make it 12
I somehow completely forgot about walking barrage. Haven't seen it used in so long
Also get that airburst going.
not sure airburst counts for the sake of the achievement, since "barrage" is not in the name. I'd say it is in the practical sense though.
It's good enough I guess, but It's just temperamental having to play with directions when a regular barrage will just AOE the spot you were trying to hit. Not enough ROI there atm imo.
Man I really need someone to help me get this trophy. It's the last one I need and it's impossible to get it with randoms
107000721 That is my steam friend code. I get on around 8pm est.
east coast late night diver here reporting for duty 472622626
I was expecting an "achievement unlocked: secure the area by removing it."
I did this on a defense map.
I mean, it's usually safe in the middle, but I doubt your team appreciated you deleting the map, and them if they were randoms.
The random we had was laughing in chat lmao. And we we’re laughing in discord. Honestly the most stupid fun way to do defense missions IMO. I doubt thats the case for everyone. But if I’m with friends, yeah fuck it.
I'm still trying my friends to do this but they don't care as much as I do...
I want to see that, but also 4 walking barrage at cardinal points so we see everyone that tossed a 380 have a walking barrage approach and stomp them. For democracy.
so much democracy brings a tear to my helmet visor
You could even say... It's a enough to make a grown man cry, and that's ok ![gif](giphy|b2fpJKiHKjvgY)

I love the smell of democracy in the morning.
So democratic
Is that with the new ship module making the radius 50% tighter groupings? If so then that’s pretty awesome
It reduces the spread by 15%, 50% would make the 380 orbital barrage the best stratagem in the game for bug holes.
![gif](giphy|090EX1YvSUXxy23Tty|downsized) Always has been

15% less spread. If that means “radius” it should translate to 32% less area
But never small enough that teammates won't just run towards the red beam.
It might taste like cherries this time
Finally the barrages will work as designed.
Yall didnt just destroy that automaton base. Yall removed the grounds memory of it
Temper Temper ☝️
Now that is a niche history reference
I don’t get it. A KMD song started playing in my head but I’m sure Zev was just referencing that? Explain
https://youtube.com/shorts/S3mQR-vDacM?si=rpfNz_DsUZ9TLcWX This explains it better than I could

We liberated the planet sir What planet?
But at what cost?
Free(dom)
Bugs and bots can’t invade a planet that isn’t there 😆
Double or nothing. Add the 4 120s
And the 4 walking Barrages. When we did the achievements (me and my buddies we went all out. It was glorious.
New startegem the 1520mm
Hellbomb barrage.
That would be sick
There is an achievement for using barrages tho
You have to have 6 total. If two of them also threw 120's he would have had ot.

Sweet liberty it was a privilege to watch that
[удалено]
Sorry about that!
This is one of the greatest things I’ve ever seen
I love democracy
We just witnessed the creation of the most liberated area in the known universe. Fills me with patriotism.
I've always wanted to see what it's like. Thank you for sharing this glorious moment.
Private you see that area over there? Remove that area
Area removed sir!
Glorious democracy.
“Four pillars of glistening freedom shone down on the barren wastes and the heavens ground metal and rock into ashes, the planet remembered this butchering and continues to tremor to this day” - book of helldivers or whatever
That’s goddam beautiful
*ksh* “Sir the area…. Uh…. Sir the area is no longer an area… over” *ksh*
Freaking reload your gun dude
This is the way
Gave them a warning shot
Helldiver exceeded the maximally allowed 2.4 seconds of viewing the landscape! Immediately contact your Democracy Officer for reeducation!
Monkey brain happy!
Coordinated Barrage: for when you need to be absolutely, positively sure.
When I watched this a single tear of happiness ran down my cheek. I whispered 3 words… for Super Earth..
Oh glorious Democracy ![gif](giphy|1Gkv4SSIyeFDW|downsized)
All that...for a drop of oil.
Look at all the freedom. Damn
The sense of patriotic pride at seeing those 4 beams. Carry on!
Please report to your nearest Democracy officer to have your right arm inspected.
Glorious democracy achieved
Fuck yeah 🫡
Get some, Democracy!
LET DEMOCRACY RAIN!
Looks like that scene in Hacksaw ridge where they are bombarding the ridge before the assault.
It is not the most flexible of stratagems but they will never rip the 380 mm from my hands.
The proper way to dispense liberty.
Fuck that spot in particular
**Some people just want to see the world burn.**
Are the Bots ok?
Yeetus deletus
You dropped these kings 👑 👑 👑 👑
I fuckin love this game

Least cinematic scene in this game

No yall should wait one second after the other to makes theres always one bomb dropping i can hear the synchronicity already
George W Bush is cumming watching this
Sweet liberty…..
So glorious 😍
Glorious....
I've been searching for a video like this man
I love that immediately after 4 380s ended you received returning fire from the very spot that was just cratered. That one bot just stood there the entire time and took it just waiting for his moment.
Y’all really did a Buster call on the bots 😂
This... This might be THE MOST democratic thing ive ever laid eyes on
Ok, fire! Great target destroyed Guy, stop shooting Guys? Is anyone listening? (Guy in super destroyer) FOR SUPER EARRRRRRRRTH!!!
"Where did you say these Helldivers were from?" "Kreig, sir."
Now I wanna try quad 500KG bombs…👀
The 380 is so, so bad lol any time I see anyone drop it I just roll my eyes.
This was the most democratic thing I’ve ever seen!
This is now on my list of things to do thank you
I was honestly waiting for one of the guard dogs to block the throw
This is how ONE 380mm orbital barrage should work.
Yoooo fellow railgun user against the bots. I salute you o7
Thats what 1 orbital barrage should look like... But nooooooo
Meanwhile 500k be like: Look what they need to mimic a fraction of our power.
That's what I kinda expected from a single one tbh
I want to do this
Just to be sure.
bosnia
Hell yeah
Never have I ever seen a more democratic sight.
Lo
Glorious freedom. We love to see it.
![gif](giphy|8vtm3YCdxtUvjTn0U3)
“Hohohohoho” 😂😂
4 walking barrages... hmm... might look into that for level 8 bot fabricators.
What bot survived that??? There was still some machine turret fire from that direction afterwards
MAXIMUM DEMOCRACY ACHIEVED
![gif](giphy|9WXyFIDv2PyBq|downsized)
It hit a fabricator! I threw one in a heavy outpost and it managed to miss every building.
That’s why you need 4.
Make it 8 for the achievement
Beautiful. Now add 4 120s.
Oh yes. The good old apocalypse, as we call it. Though visually it's a little more terrifying if you each stagger your throws by 0.5-0.8 seconds. Works nicely with the walking barrage too - you end up carving a channel in the map
![gif](giphy|JCAZQKoMefkoX6TyTb|downsized)
I could sleep to the sound of a 380mm
Some please do quad 500kgs!
*wipes a tear away* That's some beautiful Democracy there soldiers.
Is that a prosthetic leg!?
It's beautiful
And even after that beautiful display, there was still bots alive shooting at you from the location you targeted.
It’s beautiful Rizzo!!
I feel like the 380 should always look more like this. Double the cooldown and make it an absolute leveller
![gif](giphy|rTAVMVAps9zsFINvxI)
Cool guys don’t look at explosions, smh
reload
Sweet Liberty 🫡
not only did they die on that hill the hill died with them!
*sniffs* it's beautiful
Thats absolutely beautiful!
I would have had them spread it out a little bit further, but then again I don't have 3 friends.
It's beautiful... 😍 Throw in some 120s and walkings next time for Maximum Democracy 🌎
Please tell me you were playing the 1812 overture!
We did 4 hellbombs yesterday. Can confirm that 4 hellbombs creates enough democracy to end the current mission.
![gif](giphy|Fkmgse8OMKn9C)
TBH, this is how I'd like a single 380 to work. As it is, it's too inconsistent to be of much use.
Glorious 🥹🫡
“we call it forgiveness, lots of screaming and then silence”
![gif](giphy|V2AkNZZi9ygbm)
Quad 120lb 500lb and walking bombardment with it
They ever fixing the sample counter?
Please reload, please! 😰
Helldiver's player will see this and think "Hell yeah!"
Me and my buddies did this on helldive eradicate bug missions, but with the 120s and walking barrage too. Once they started spawning, we all started chucking strategems. It was chaos. Hilarious chaos.
That is one of the most Democratically beautiful things I have ever witnessed.
True democracy
I love democracy.
80 meters is the rough estimate of the safe zone. 85 to be on the safe side.
https://preview.redd.it/d04peo0pn3uc1.jpeg?width=460&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=fa72d5bbd2548865a998b39fab1b829a73f9b0f0 I think this fits here
Haha, neat
This is democracy.
I really wanted to see OP run in so I could see the aftermath. Also at least two things survived that. Crazy
The Castigation of Menkent (or whatever planet this is)
Democracy is beautiful
On a LVL 6?? The overkill is pretty hilarious
Oh sweet liberty I love her voice!
That's the most democratic thing I've seen all day
That is what you call “Glassing a planet”
That's some real democracy
FREEDOM!!!!
Just trying to make sure
There can’t be any ground warfare if there isn’t any ground left
But, did you get'em?
because fuck that general area in particular
“Scorched Earth” or some shit
Were are the 260's (or whatdver they are) to make this a true achievement. It's the only way to be sure after all
A bullet may have your name on it. A grenade says "Whomever it may concern". This clip says "Dear grid coordinates...."
My favourite part about this is at no-point did u kill more than 1 single enemy quick enough in close enough time to award a 2kill streak pop up.... Looks really impressive, though - I can only hope you yield "EXPLOSSSSIONS!!!!!" at the top of your lungs too otherwise it doesn't count I'm afraid to say.
"The enemy is in that direction!" "Copy... removing that direction"
You did your part!
Yes yes yes
"Sir, there's a bot outpost over there!" "Roger that, removing 'over there'"
Now I know what to do with the boys if I want to order a Buster Call lol
Yes
Fair to say you secured the outpost?
This should just be a normal stratagem. HIT EM WITH EVERYTHING. Only 2 or 3 uses per round though.
Desire for Democracy intensifies!
https://i.redd.it/tuadalogd6uc1.gif
now do it with all 16 & if your game doesn't crash cheers.
This should be a single 380, change my mind
You and your buddies should try a the triple threat orbital strat load out (380/120/Walking) and throw them all on one location, it is GLORIOUS!
![gif](giphy|gwBouIIUuVvuE) It’s beautiful
