The P-72 CRISPER： Testing the only INCENDIARY SECONDARY WEAPON in Helldivers 2 (INSANE DAMAGE)

Hello, welcome back to a new video. So

today we're going to be looking at the

brand new P72 CRISPR, a sidearm

that does fire damage. It's like a

flamethrower but your sidearm. So it comes

with the new War Bonds, Freedom Flames.

So if you go to the War Bonds page, got

this new one, Freedom Flame, and it's

actually on the last page. Costs about 45

medals, it's pretty easy to get, and it

does 250 damage 30 capacity,

3 recoil. It's got medium armor

penetrating, incendiary, and it's

one-handed. So it sounds pretty good on

paper, but is it any good in reality?

We're going to test out— equip secondary.

And we've also got the brand new Flam 66

Torture for the primary weapon. So we've

got 2 flaming weapons. They're really

going hard on the flaming weapons, aren't

they, on this new update. So we're gonna

go and do a Terminid mission, which is

what I think fire-based weapons can excel

at. Don't really want fire weapons against

the Automatons. Okay, landing down

on the planet to see if it's any good.

Okay, so I have it equipped. It's very

tiny, no sights. See what it does.

It just shoots out a little piddly bit of

flame and it's out of ammo already.

I like how little drops of flame spit out

of it. So let's see if it does any good

damage against Brood Commander.

So I use the whole canister and it's still

alive. It doesn't really seem to

do anything. Look. Switch to the Flam

66, bit beefier.

Switch back to the— what's it called? I

forgot what it's called now. I'm out of

ammo already. I got one more— no, I got

nothing. It's empty already and it

couldn't even kill a Brute Commander. Not

very great, is it? Okay,

landing again. Boom, 3 dead.

Oh, what's this guy?

Oh, what is that? Why is its head coming

off slightly? That's a weird new thing,

isn't it? What is that? That's weird.

Is it a new Charger? Its head kind of

stretches off its neck. Oh, I just killed

Let's see

if it's any good against these.

Hmm, I'm getting battered.

Whoops, pressed the wrong button.

I think I got its head. I did get its— oh,

I didn't. See if it's good against

chargers.

Charging off in the wrong way. This

thing's like 2-shotting me.

I like how you can do one-handed too, so I

guess you could combine it with a shield.

I'm already out of ammo. It goes out of

ammo so fast.

Try the Flam 66. It's not really doing

anything.

Why is it not on fire?

Oh my God, I keep pressing the wrong

button.

Did that kill it? Yes.

No, I mean yes.

Okay,

the game seems glitched because it's not

matching me up with anyone. I'm having to

do all this alone. Oh, someone joined.

Took ages.

It's okay,

I guess. I wouldn't really choose it

though. There's better side weapons than

a nerfed, gimped flamethrower that runs

out of ammo in 2 seconds.

Why am I dying so quickly?

Oh my God, what is this? I can't even get

up. You start flaming them and

you've got like 2 seconds until they reach

you and they're not dead. By the time they

get to you. So what are you supposed to

Oh, there's no Helldivers on standby, so I

can't do anything until 1 minute 20

seconds. Let's try it against the

Automatons then. I can't believe how

popular this game used to be when it first

came out. There was like a million players

or something. You couldn't log in Because

there were so many people trying to log in

at the same time. The amount of hype and

popularity this game had when it first

came out was insane. I think it's really

dropped off now, like most games I guess.

Still kind of shocking to see.

It makes you wonder why the game was so

popular though, because it's pretty

boring. You just land on the planet and

then you just blow up a load of insects or

robots over and over and over and over

again. The only cool thing was the 500 kg

bomb looked like a little nuke going off

and all the explosions, but the novelty

wore off quickly, didn't it?

Now it just feels like a chore to play

this game. Makes you wonder why anyone

ever cared about it.

It's like everything, I guess. In the

beginning it's fun and exciting, and then

after a while the gimmick wears off and

you feel like, why did I even care in the

first place?

That's just life.

Nothing's fun forever.

So against— yeah, it's really gonna do

much against that, isn't it?

Flame its foot.

Amazing. Oh,

what are these? New walker things.

You used to be able to shoot them in the

back because they were exposed, and now

they've got armor all around it.

I guess it was too easy to kill them

before.

I don't know why when I press— my camera

is moving for some reason. Weird.

Yeah, it's kind of rubbish, to be honest.

Not very good. It's just another rubbish

flamethrower. Flame weapons really suck.

I'd just rather have an electric weapon.

Look, it's out of ammo already.
