  One point of accuracy that I love in Helldivers 2 is that, just as in real life for infantry, your personal weapon is pretty much a security blanket you hug real close as you wait for the real guns to do the work.

  I love how he said "Nothing beats Artillery but Air Power" because 'orbitals' (this games equivalent of Air power) are the most effective way of dealing with enemies.

  Fun fact, according to the upgrade descriptions, until you buy the upgrade, your orbital bombardments are muzzle loaded. Which means each time after you call one in they send a guy out in a space suit to load it again like a musket!

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_NHf93J0X0c&amp;t=348">5:48</a><br>You do actually switch tubes as you&apos;re firing the shotgun. If you go into first person mode as you fire the Punisher Shogun, you can see how the character flips over a little tab, indicating that he changed tubes.

  Another detail of the Carl Gustav in game is that if someone is standing behind you while you are firing it, they get hit with backblast and get sent off their feet!

  I really love the fact this game went so hard into co-op/team-play. I know it sours it for people who don&apos;t want to play with others but the fact there&apos;s weapons that really shine when a squaddy helps you reload and such is such a great mechanic. I&apos;ve honestly not played a single game nor seen any that I can remember that has a similar system other than maybe some mil-sim games with mortars where it might be a two-person weapon.

  Not only does throwing away the magazine take it out of your inventory, but if you try and fire again in the middle of a reload, the gun will fire only one bullet until you finish reloading. Very good attention to detail.

  PLEASE get jonathan on to talk about helldivers again. I want to see the look on his face when he sees a 15mm shoulder-mounted stripperclip-loaded toggle lock autocannon

  Not-so-proud owner of a UTAS UTS-15 here. There is a middle position that you can put the tube selector into, which makes the gun alternate the tube in which it feeds from. So you don&apos;t <b>have</b> to manually switch your tube.

  Not having Johnathan react to the Autocannon is a crime. Looking foward to part 2 please

  One thing the H2 does really well is aiming. I love how your reticle is just a “where I want to be aiming” and the circle is where your weapon is actually aiming.<br><br>With heavier weapons as well this means you can quickly turn but because of the weight your circle drags behind and will overshoot your reticle abit as you pull it where you want it.<br><br>It creates a very natural feeling aiming system that despite being done artificially (it’s not actually tied to your weapon) makes you aware of where your weapon is really aiming rather than where you want to aim.
