Text chat available on the equipment/stratagem selection screen would be nice
And ship audio! So many times I come out of the equipment menu to find a full squad has joined and I didn't even know.
It’d be cool if there was mission where you were clearing an objective for the main army to roll in.
Like you go in an blow up some big arty base. Then have to defend the base from counterattack until a tank battalion rolls up
Seriously. Anything at ALL that indicated any aspect of one's game efforts were helping — the ever-changing (and generally arbitrary) stats on the map screen do not count. 🤦🏼♂️
that kinda already happens if by army you mean a squad of 4 cadets with mortars.
Saved loadouts
The map when waiting for reinforcement and the ability to ping where to be thrown.
I had a daydream about there being a companion app on my phone where I could see my friends were playing and I could send them little assists like dropping ammo or a little autonomous drone or a heath booster.
It was displayed like I was a super earth citizen sending my support donations to the front line.
IIRC, Tom Clancy's The Division gameplay trailer had a moment where one of the guys in the crew had to leave, but he was able to check up on his crew and call in a supplies drop for them via his real world smartphone. It seemed like an interesting idea, to incorporate a smartphone/tablet as another way to 'play the game.' I think there might have also been the ability to hack into CCTV/security cameras and give callouts/info to your crew about what was inside a building, on the street up ahead, or the city block. They ended up cutting from the game, a few months after the gameplay trailer came out.
It's an intriguing idea to find ways to incorporate other screened devices into the mix of gameplay, but I think it wouldn't be utilized that often. What would be the strongest reason to allow others to help out in this fashion? I can see how this would appeal to couples or friends, where one is really into video games and the other isn't. They could feel like they are working together to accomplish the mission/objective.
As for HellDivers 2, I can't quite imagine where and how having a companion app for the game would work out and be utilized.
i wanna see team cooldowns on the HUD. it’s on the map but id rather see the cooldowns then their ammo.
mostly so i can see when the next mortar is spawned so i can snipe it off the map.
Would be good as a HUD option at least
a 5 to 8 player mod would be nice. Our squads barely hold together without disconnecting way too much so it might be a big ask until things are more stable.
A game that actually launches? That'd be amazing.
One gem can be assigned to a 'hotkey' or simple button combo for controller and can only be set pre-mission
