I’ve had a number of situations where I had to give up on calling in certain ordinance due to being completely bombarded by a swarm of enemies. Things can get a little hairy if you need a Stratagem to be dropped in while there’s a swarm of enemies making its way to your position. The D-Pad combinations for each Stratagem is different depending on what a Helldiver wants to call in. You’ll be able to call in airstrikes, giant mech robots, a resupply of ammo, turrets, and more through the use of Stratagems. Calling in ordinance can be done by holding down the L1 button and mashing in the designated D-Pad combinations. Stratagems play a very large role in Helldivers as having the right ordinance for your missions is extremely important. These three methods come together harmoniously, as it always feels like I’m making progress to something significant each time I complete a mission. Upgrading weapons and Stratagems can be done through the use of research points, which are awarded to Helldivers for either leveling up or returning valuable samples from alien planets. Gaining Stratagems, which are military ordinance that can be called into battle, is done by unlocking them via completing a planet’s set number of missions successfully. As you gain experience, your Helldiver will be able to unlock either cosmetic customizations, new weaponry, or perks. Helldivers uses a progression system, research points, and successful missions to help in acquiring new gear for your soldier. Helldivers allows you to choose from a wide range of difficulties, which is extremely helpful as first-timers will want to brush up on the game’s mechanics before attempting to complete missions with a higher difficulty. You’ll then choose a planet, each of which have their own environments as well as difficulties. You’ll first need to select a warzone, which will dictate which one of three races you’ll battle: Bugs, Cyborgs, or Illuminates. The majority of your time in Helldivers will be spent completing missions across various planets. The developer has some experience in developing co-op games, and in Helldivers, you’re going to need all the help you can get in order to survive the countless aliens you’ll be coming across. Helldivers is developed by Arrowhead Game Studios, best known for Magicka and last year’s revival of Gauntlet. All you know as a Helldiver is that Super Earth needs you to fight for it, so you’re tasked with defending it. How exactly this war began is completely unknown. In the dystopian universe of Helldivers, all of mankind is ruled by a “managed” democracy by 2084, and it’s up to Helldivers to help fight for humanity (and democracy), against three formidable alien races. A number of nations have been enjoying for hundreds of years, while some others would rather do things their own way.
