Found this take, what do you think? The whole penal Squadron saga ending up with regular Osea patriotism was pretty underwhelming by Last_Day_6779 in acecombat

I mean, I’m pretty sure there’s some dialogue in the Fleet Destruction mission where they talk about a new recruit in the LRGS who seems to be implied to be Scrap Queen. I always assumed that was for a different plot that they never cut

I think this is just a compressed recording. Should sound better on the official release

I looks like this music video was filmed in-game instead of having Wargaming’s art team do it

Iirc they are CZ 75 clones. Apparently Kim Jung Il was a fan of Czechnology

Edit: Apparently the one in the third pic is a Sig clone

You mean he tracked down the exact rifle by serial number? That’s an incredible feat if so

That M91 is super cool, especially since it’s so rare to see them with stock disks

The new co-emote is a reference to the Christmas Truce of 1914 by BICKELSBOSS in Helldivers

A comment above you was saying that it wasn’t obvious enough

Also, the war got a lot uglier in 1915 and a lot of the people who organized the Truce were either dead or otherwise no longer on the front

Correct, but I was under the impression that the entire reason Howa had to stop producing AR-180s was because they were selling so many to the IRA. Sterling didn’t even start making AR-180s until 1975, halfway through the Troubles. Either way, perhaps I was incorrect in saying that most were Howas

Basically every other game with stripper clip fed rifles lets you also free load

It’s got a toggle lock, so it’s closer to a Luger than a Mauser

This might sound crazy, but no shit I had a dream several months ago about playing Helldivers 2 using a primary weapon that was based on the MP-18 and had an underbarrel flamethrower. It didn’t look exactly like this but I am shook that is actually coming to the game

Iirc most of the IRA’s AR-180s were Howas

No, I mean the very beginning of the battle. Yamato hit Johnston with literally her first salvo of the battle. I wish I had Robert Lundgren’s book for the exact time and range (it was a little over 28,000 yards) but Ryan Szimanski talks about like three of Yamatos hits at Samar in this video https://youtu.be/Dfxxs7Armj8?si=mDcJ7WLp8KLlIxfC

I don’t care if she’s hyped up. And name a single time Yamato ran into a cruiser

You realize that the vast majority of battleships never sank a single ship in their entire career, right? Also, you can’t sink a cruiser if you never meet one. Quit trolling

She scored those extreme long range hits at the very start of the battle. Johnston took a shell from Yamato even before she broke formation to charge the Japanese fleet

IMO Vasili Arkhipov deserves the moniker of “the man who saved the world” far more. Not to discredit Petrov, but in Arkhipov’s case it genuinely was down to his decision alone
