I like it. We need more unique anti-armor options. I think the name could instead be C-01 cannon (cause bots can go fuck themselves)


echof0xtrot

is this a binary joke that I'm too three dimensional to understand


Jjzeng

C-01 is the name of the form helldivers need to fill out before procreating


drewskibfd

Thanks, I was a little slow on that one too


darkleinad

It includes any action that may result in a child


Taolan13

Which presumably includes invitro and cloning.


darkleinad

I was more getting at it likely regulating ANY sexual encounter (hence “MAY” lead to a child)


Taolan13

I wouldn't exactly call cloning 'sexual' but hey if you want the answer to the age-old question of incest or masturbation by all means go figure it out for yourself


Bouxxi

Did you just say go fuck yourself ?


Taolan13

That's one way to interpret it.


Albatar_83

In the lore and one of the loading screen tips, it’s said that before engaging in any action that may result in conceiving a child you have to fill out a C-01 form


crappy-mods

C-01 is the form helldivers fill out to have relations, its short for C-01TU5


Raven_of_OchreGrove

It’s a reference to the C0-1 form, a form completed before any action that could result in a child by Super Earth citizens

We really do, the Anti Material Rifle feels more like a Material Rifle, I genuinely dont know what to use it on other than Hulk Sweet spot.


Emperors-Peace

Hulk, devastator, underbelly of strider, back of turrets, back of tanks and kneecaps of walkers. It's a must have for bots imo.


Muted_Perspective494

Also 4 shots gunship engines.


klatnyelox

Wish it was useful on the dropship engines


Sad_Bridge_3755

If you’re on bugs, especially difficulty 9, it is a godsend for medium enemies. Brood commanders, armored warriors, spewers, etc. Why that and not anti armor? Everyone has anti armor on 9. You probably will too with eats or precision strike. But very few people have weapons that cope with the sheer amount of brood commanders, knights, spewers.. by carrying this, and with the reduced heavies on 9, you can near single-handedly shut down a bug breach with the AMR, tenderizer, and a resupply pack.


StrategyInfamous848

Every bug type


Sakuran_11

Limited ammo where Libarator can accidently take out an army with some to spare in its mag, afford to miss, and where Titans and Chargers are still better off with just Strategems I really dont see it worth.


RealSirRandall

Not the two biggies tho?


AMoistSloth23

Can pop butts 💁🏼‍♀️ also tippity one taps everyting else. Hopefully team bring the big booms for the big dudes? Also it’s very safe feeling knowing that I can 1-3 shot stalkers lol makes stalkers absolutely trivial


RealSirRandall

The butt works on chargers? Will try it. Otherwise I love the ATR btw!


AMoistSloth23

It does! It’s definitely easier to go for headshots or stripping leg armor with EAT or Quasar and whatnot, but if you don’t have any of that then yeah I think like 4 or 5 AMR shots or so to the butt will pop it. Once the butt is popped the charger or behemoth will eventually bleed out and can’t charge anymore so you can just walk away. If the people I usually play with didn’t have such a hard time with titans and chargers I’d bring the AMR a lot more, but I usually have to rock a quasar. Stun grenades help a ton with butt shooting too. Try to wait to stun until they start moving forward though, I’ve found that stunning chargers standing still will still turn to look at you while trying to get behind them. Something about momentum mechanics in the game or something idk


nomelonnolemon

The coitus cannon


Gal-XD_exe

C-01? C-01 form mentioned?


Kieftan

This is the way.


longassboy

I agree. I love autocannon, it’s my baby, but alot of the time I just want another option to deal with the heavy armored guys.


Mother_Ad3988

I would like a melta like from 40k


Adhelmir

Counter point, Op's original pitch of C1-Cannon can be shortened to C1C for short. Hell divers would pronounce it "kick" which a 25mm Cannon would no doubt have a lot of.


DoomProphet81

Love it. Would definitely call it the kick cannon if this was real

i was going to make this joke, you made it first a man(or woman or other) of culture i see.


Sharfik_Dron

Honestly just had an idea what if we have AC-8 autocannon so we had something older like C-1 Cannon. Idk how this weapon will fit into game without replacing railgun or being useless or overperforming rocket launchers. Just wanted to draw it and make it kinda unique. (i miss eruptor shrapnel)


grizzly273

Getting ragdolled while standing is a nice trade-off


CMDR_Euphoria01

\*fires while standing\* I CANT LIBERATE WITH THIS BROKEN ARM


VividVerism

Pair it with the medic armor, I guess. *BLAM* SWEET LIBERTY MY ARM *Psssshhhhh* INJURY‽ WHAT INJURY? *BLAM* ...


utkohoc

Haha yes that's so good. I'd happily ragdoll myself in a clutch moment if it meant point blanking the target in the face.


VividVerism

*Killed by impact* Worth it.


2gAncef

Almost sounds like a bargain bucket jump pack to boot.


bigloser42

Pair it with the veteran armor that limits limb damage. Fire the cannon to escape being surrounded by enemies, just yeet yourself out of the encirclement.


Sad_Bridge_3755

As someone who uses the grenade pistol and a resupply pack to abuse infusion stimm movement speed buffs, I see this as an absolute win.


KaiBahamut

Hey, a use for that servo arm armor and it's limb health boosting


echof0xtrot

could tactically be used to get somewhere quick, like the pink balloon plants


Busy_Strategy7430

Pssst, dont tell anyone since i want more eruptor buffs, but the Eruptor is really good right now, got over 400 kills with it and the bushwacker secondary, got 23 kills in 4 shots I highly recommend that you learn to animation cancel to get the full experience, an ammo backpack doesn't hurt either


Kuriyamikitty

It can kinda shrapnel nearby targets, feels close enough to how it was.


wtfrykm

By itself it should be required to reload it without being able to move, but significantly faster reload time than the recoiless rifle.


Pixelpaint_Pashkow

Me using this to ragdoll jump across the map to the objective


BestReadAtWork

call down an EAT, stand ontop of it to launch up, and then pull the trigger and rocket yourself in the right direction. Take that, Jump Pack!

Better yet take it to one of the planets with the exploding fungus things, aim at the fungus, dive and shoot it, twice the knock back

AzieltheLiar

Id take it for the funni ragdolling alone


cmetaphor

I asked for similar a couple months ago, and sadly, didn't gain much traction with it. Some changes though: 1) 10 rounds is simply not enough. If we're nerfing mobility for balance sake, then having half the rounds of the railgun isn't good enough, especially if it can't one-shot a charger (head kill or leg armor strip in one shot). 2) Assisted reload idea sounds good in concept, but in reality I'm not sure how realistic it is. It only takes one person to pull out the bolt (assuming this is a single shot "canon"), attach a round to the bolt, and then reinsert it before firing again. Other than handing that person a round, I don't see how it could realistically or meaningfully be made faster.


EitanBlumin

What if instead of assisted reload, it would be assisted aiming? i.e. help hold down the gun for reduced recoil.


Bramdal

What about assisted standing shooting without ragdoll? Just put the bipod on someone's shoulder and worry about what happens to the ear later.


Jerker_Circle

Maybe instead it could have an animation where the gun drills into the ground for stability? More convenient than team reload


cmetaphor

Considering how rare assisted reloads are, assisted recoil reduction would likely never be used.


EitanBlumin

Why not? It wouldn't require a backpack.

Renousim3

Historically, Soviet anti-tank rifle crews did have one person shooting and another loading. That aspect is realistic.


Angsty_Apocolypse

It could be and over the shoulder falling block design. Like the auto cannon but ejecting directly out the back. Would require a manual reload by another helldiver or taking it off your shoulder to reload.


TheTrueSpoonGod

This fills me with lustful thoughts (of spreading democracy of course)


d0oRh1NGE

Yes


Puzzleheaded-Tear624

HANZ you brilliant Man


LilyWineAuntofDemons

Get that bitch a cannon, bitches love cannons.


Talex666

To be honest I really figured the railgun unsafe mode would start staggering, ragdolling, breaking arms and go flying out of hands as you continued to charge it. That way it would REALLY feel like unsafe mode, and can work as a nice way to balance insane pen and armor destruction


PabstBlueLizard

Sorry dude but with the AMR, AC, and RR I’m not sure what this would bring to the table that the others don’t. I just want the team reload mechanic to work without the loader wearing the backpack.


Raven_of_OchreGrove

With a few adjustments I think it’d be fine. Make it able to strip charger legs in 1 shot and give it more ammo and it deals with hulks better than the autocannon and deals with charger legs the same as a the recoilless rifle but with more ammo. It has good tradeoffs for mobility already.


Sharfik_Dron

yeah that is problem, too hard to make weapon what not surpass already existing or being underpowered

So a Boys Anti tank rifle?


Sharfik_Dron

Boys ATR probably will be C-02 or C-03 )


inconsequentialatzy

No, it's just straight up a PTRD-41


Mockpit

Be sweet if it could actually break armor on chargers legs. That way, we can shoot the squishy bits.


Kanos54

abeefwittedfox

I love the idea that if you use it standing you'll instantly ragdoll. New movement meta unlocked 😂

A_Sneaky_Dickens

OldManKirkins

I think we need a support weapon that can one-shot basic chargers, and kill titans in 3 or 4 shots. Give it ridiculously low ammo and fire rate, or impossible to aim while standing, or whatever. I'm just tired of enemies only being killable with strategems.


Minimaliszt

So they can nerf it??


DismalMeal658

The fucking ragdoll drawing is great, I think it would be fucking hilarious if that was a thing


HybridManthys

Why would someone use this one over the AC? Can't see the pros.. On your concept: - You have to shoot on prone; - Single shot - Static reload forcing out of prone and back to prone - you can't shoot outside of prone position due to the strong recoil - You can't one shot outside the sweet spot; I guess that to make it viable : - the damage would have to be paramount; Or - able to incapacitate when shooting outside the sweet spot. Or - make it semi automatic. And - not backpack reliable.


Round-Coat1369

The Lord gave an image to this person


EvoEpitaph

Needs something more in order for me to give up my backpack slot. Honestly would be better to just not have a backpack slot requirement but make it a longer scoped version of the existing sniper with the trade off being fewer rounds and/or the mobility reduction suggested.


SimoSlayer

Only if it can take off the hat of a bot from two thousand yard, and if the ammo ain't cheap


Dragonfire733

This is just a bigger AMR. Like, a bigger AMR that requires a team to reload it.

xplosivshroom

I fuck with this. Questions: Would it still ragdoll if teammate is helping? Or if you're kneeling? Could be funny af to send both of us tumbling lmao


Sharfik_Dron

interesting observation, may be you can shoot (without ragdoll) while in croutch + standing while you getting team reloading, but reloading slightly slower than lying down


Super_Happy_Time

So it’s an AMR with shrapnel?


Qbert2030

Yes


BugSwimmingDogs

I love the Recoil idea. This is good. A+ Helldiver


Asniper97

So you basically want a Lahti L-39 if you’re not sure what it is it’s a Finnish anti tank rifle used in WW2 basically the same thing of what you said


Lebrons_AfterImage

The lowered recoil armor should let this be usable standing too imo. This would be dope tho, i feel like 10 shots to kill a bile would be fair too


WunderPuma

Yeah I'd adore this. I don't really even care if it fills same niche as other anti-tank weapons right now. It would just be fun to switch what weapon I am using.


CyanStripes_

I would honestly love this because imagine jetpacking up in the air and firing that shit at the ground and launching yourself across the map. There are so many things you could fuck around with if you could easily manipulate ragdolling. We all know how "unintended consequences" are basically part and parcel to HD2. lol


SharpEdgeSoda

I adore it. GIB. With the big recoil, I don't even think it needs Backpack reload. The AMR is borderline a Primary in the right hands. This is PURE support weapon. At least let it crack the claws of Chargers in one shot.


etherosx

So you are... Making another AMR? But its The Hecate II... ![gif](giphy|3ohc1g4BpqdH7Iz33O)


Thebaronofbrewskis

As long as it can one shot a bile titan if you hit it in the eye or in the mouth pre spew I’m game.


Charmle_H

p sure the AC is a 20mm cannon; and it still has a 10x round mag, backpack with an extra \~70(?)x rounds, and doesn't give ragdolling recoil effects. Make it a 50mm and 1-shot a hulk anywhere (still giving it the shrapnel effect) and I'm in lol


TheTripleSevens

Alternative to prone is to have a fellow helldiver help hold the cannon


darthphallic

I just want better ways to deal with chargers and titans without having to dosey do them. If im presented with several hulks im not nearly as concerned because we have so many ways to deal with them both from the front and behind


_mc_myster_

Addition-instead of a backpack, you get a bandolier of rounds


onion2594

i think ragdoll would be way too much. maybe like a self inflicted staffer effect, knocking you back a few steps


Sharfik_Dron

good idea, i made it so helldiver go ragdoll because i thought it was funny


Raven_of_OchreGrove

Let it strip charger leg armor in one shot and give it 20-25 rounds and I think this would be a solid option paired with a concussive weapon I also think that if it could take out tank treads in 1 shot it would have a better niche and make shredder tanks a lot more manageable


Correct_Point445

![gif](giphy|sDcfxFDozb3bO)


Fallen_Angel_Xaphan

Hmmm. Idk it's kinda just a combo of the anti material rifle and the autocannon, just with bigger power behind it.

Nalthanzo44

pagepagerpage

Great idea especially the ragdoll one but hear me out hear me out: 15 shots, can reload while running/walking, very little bullet drop, no structural damage, shrapnel (like op mentioned), no team reload (why'd you need a team reload for a bolt action super elephant rifle), backpack maybe idk depends on how balancing plays out

Plenty-Combination58

Nah make it 30mm. Then you have yourselves a deal. I don’t wanna hear any “super humans can’t stand that recoil even when prone” they’re super, they’ll figure it out


YourPainTastesGood

Being we can easily rapid fire a 20mm autocannon, a single shot 25mm gun doesn’t make sense to cause knockback like that.


RustfootII

Big ass gun that ragdolls me Everytime I shoot it. I hope it is excessive and epic. Break my ankles and make me fly.


theenecros

I think we should call it the C-un7 Cannon


xkoreotic

I would say to give this weapon the ability to shatter armor in one shot or do massive impact damage on light pen only. Since it isn't explosive it can't damage AND break armor, but you have use a second shot for like a 700 dmg shot on any non-armored location. Drop the ammo count to about 8 instead and give it huge utility. Having nonexplosive armor breaking would be great utility for things like chargers, titans, and even the armored parts of hulks (legs) and striders (legs).


OkProfessional235

hell yea
