I've been playing through it with a friend, sometimes others join. I've been recording all of it, but I'm not typically big on uploading stuff. I used to just take neat or funny clips and post to tiktok with music or audios. This game is definitely long form friendly (so youtube probably). I think my friend and I have found some great cheesy strategies for a lot of missions. Neither of our first playthoughs. Thing is, I'm a bit anxious about uploading anything like that. But at the same time, that would mean people can see our planning process, how we do missions, and do even better stuff. No. This is not an advertisement. The channel I'd upload it to has 1-3 vids from helldivers and maybe titanfall 2. Not exactly trying to get big. I have a job that pays well. I'm split between thinking it'd be neat to see other people's input vs my anxiety about uploading stuff (I deleted my tiktok because I felt almost everyone on there was taking it way too seriously, and I don't want more of that)
Examples of cheese strats: Rocket chopper or explosive drone for destroy objectives, the infiltration path I've memorized for Sam Fisher's mission, shooting through walls as much as humanly possible so the ai doesn't have a chance via .50 bmg or and lmg in the rainbow 6 mission. Abusing landmines lmg's and Halo vehicle strat for any indoorsish missions. Abusing the gatling chopper conveniently near the buildings bad guys are locked inside to shred them before starting the timer by blowing the doors. Realizing that blowing up supply convoys doesn't fail them. The beauty of getting line of sight on pilot seat before opening up on enemies around supply helicopters. The art of sniping every helicopter out of the sky from 1+km away so unidad or that one boss don't interrupt. The classic battlefield ghost ride teamkill method to run over enemy pairs with nobody noticing enough to care. Making unidad and sb fight eachother whenever possible, mostly for shiggles. Sniping around 500-600 meters far from roads so the enemy can't really do anything. And the list goes on. Sometimes including definite war crimes. But this is long af already.
If I upload it'll be 30 ish minute ones. Sometimes 20-40
Oh. And we did turn on tier mode as soon as it was available. So a lot of it does work on extreme difficulty. Most of it does. Lmk if you know how to stop enemies from respawning for the sam fisher mission. My old cheese strat was to snipe everyone from 500 meters during the day, then just walk in with everyone dead at night to meet him. Idk if I had tier 1 mode on back then, but now they respawn at 21:00 hours. Or 23:00. Whenever the mission is in the no kill phase. It might be tier mode or something
Anyways. Is any of that worth uploading? And should I keep all of it, trim it down, only cut travel but keep the action and planning? Maybe add a voiceover or text for what I was thinking if it's quiet?
