    I play on PC so it’s hard to say how that stuff feels comparatively. Can you move and use stratagems at the same time?! For me, WASD is both my movement and the stratagems, so if I press CTRL to pull up the menu I can’t walk anymore.

    And yeah, different guns have different aim speeds to balance them. That’s where you may find the machine gun too unwieldy and want to try the stalwart LMG instead

    Edit: by default on PC stratagems are done with WASD like the first game, and I just stuck with that. If I rebind to arrow keys then I can move and input stratagems at the same time, but I’ll have to relearn all my Helldivers 1 muscle memory haha

      Yes, pro tip is to bind the strategem controls to arrow keys or something on your mouse so you can keep moving.

        I’ve done it, I’ll get to practicing, moving and inputting is extremely clutch, I wish they informed you in-game that that’s a thing

          I wonder, did they change the defaults at some point? Mine was already bound to the arrow keys, I never had to explicitly set that.
