![]() There’s no auto reload here and it gives the game that realistic feeling, so get used to reloading and a lot.īut that’s not all, as you can also order drops during missions that include ammo drops, weapon turrets, air strikes and a few others, I won’t spoil it all for you. I also like the fact that once you run out of rounds, you have to reload or die as the enemies end up bearing down on you. I often find myself randomly firing my primary and sidearm at nothing, just to hear the sounds they make. ![]() Firing rounds sound and feels really good. In addition to your primary weapon, which can be changed prior to starting a mission, you also have access to a side aim and grenades. Aiming your weapons is easy as well, you aim with the right analog stick, which is accompanied by a red laser point to highlight your vector, firing duties is handled via the right trigger. Since I played Helldivers with the Xbox 360 controller, I was able to take advantage of the dual analog stick for movement and aiming. With plenty of weapons to pick from, there’s something for everyone pistols, machine guns, rocket launchers, shotguns, mini-gun placements and more. So much for getting to the choppa!ĭo you like gun-play? Well, Helldivers is likely right up your alley. so much that you can be overrun before they get there. Of course, it’s not always that easy you see, as every mission has some sort of objective to capture points, finding stuff or just wiping out the planet’s populous and then attempting to survive once your extraction ride gets there…. Select your weapon layout, select a mission, select your drop zone and then lay hell to any and everything in your path, if it moves then you make it stop moving. While I enjoyed the hell out of Helldivers, the game is really straight forward and simple, which is the charm of the game. Who doesn’t want to kick some alien ass, and get home just in time for tea or whatever you do for relaxation? Join the ranks of the military as you take on other planets in an attempt to liberate them and show everyone once and for all that Super Earth is top dog. Multiplayer: 4 player co-op local & on-line Sign me up sir! A top-down, dual stick shooter that makes you feel like you’re part of the Starship Trooper flicks. ![]() And while my joking start of the review mentions Star Ship Troopers, a no doubt classic and favorite film on most sci-fi and geek film watchers, that’s exactly what this game feels like when you play it. ![]() Thankfully that all changed now that Sony’s PlayStation Mobile Inc has brought the title over to Steam and the PC platform. I mean Helldivers was once a PlayStation 4 and PS Vita exclusive, one that I really didn’t get a chance to play. ![]()
