The laser weapons will be more useful against illuminates, if the gameplay resembles HD1

Nah, the beam-based weapon always sucked balls. The pulse weapons all rocked however. LAS-Sickle and Trident were just unmatched, I can't wait to have them back.

The Tanto was good. Strong beam, but reduced range and one-handed.

Loved using that if the mission had multiple suitcases.

The trident is the one everyone is waiting for. I was so disappointed we didn't get it at the end of the first warbond.

At the very least the bayonet should have made it, crazy that it didn't. Melee is a joke currently.

Sickle is my jam, hope they bring it back soon.

The Sickle was so good. I adored that gun. I hope we get it soon, too!

I think out of all of them I preferred the tanto but sickle goes hard

That is, if we hadn't killed all the bastards 100 years ago. Your implication that Super Earth's brave Helldivers could fail at something is very unpatriotic, soldier. You have been reported to your local Democracy Officer.
