HELLDIVERS 2 - Ryzen 5700X3D + RTX 4070 Super w/ SMOOTH MOTION-ON [SUPER HELLDIVE vs. AUTOMATONS]

Once again, we’re diving back against the Automatons in the latest M.O. This run, I’m rolling with the BOT-favorite primary—the Scorcher—paired with the king of AT weapons, the Recoilless Rifle. For sidearm and throwables, I went with the Talon and Dynamite, rounding out a classic assault build. This setup has been my go-to when I want to push the offensive and still be flexible against heavy targets.
From a gameplay perspective, the Scorcher is still one of the most reliable primaries against Automatons, especially when you’re dealing with clustered enemies. The Recoilless Rifle continues to be an absolute must-have for taking down tanks and Hulks, though it really shines only if your team coordinates well.
On the performance side, this run also highlights how Nvidia’s Smooth Motion keeps the game running fluidly. It’s a noticeable uplift, especially since recent patches/updates seem to have made the game more unstable for many players. Without Smooth Motion, performance dips and micro-stutters are way more frequent, but with it on, the gameplay feels way more consistent—even during chaos-heavy bot drops.

Again, we dive for managed DEMOCRACY!
