Helldivers 2 is an interesting game for sure, but it does not fail to give players a slice of hell from time to time. This is with respect to the trophies and achievements, and even the Automatons.
Recent claims on the internet suggest that there is one such achievement in Helldivers 2, which is proving to be not everyone’s cup of tea. The level seems to actually be an easy one, but still, not everyone is able to complete it.
Only 2% of players could complete this Helldivers 2 Achievement
The achievement that has been rarely completed by players is called ‘It’s the Only Way to Be Sure.’ Several players have posted YouTube videos and short videos on social media about the rarity of this achievement.
Reportedly, only 2% of Helldivers have been able to complete the ‘It’s the Only Way to Be Sure’ achievement in the game, and the reason is co-op play.

Helldivers 2, as a whole, is basically designed to be played cooperatively with friends. Thus, a majority of the achievements and trophies in the game require a team-led effort. One of them is the ‘It’s the Only Way to Be Sure’ achievement which requires players to have at least one friend in the squad.
Notably, this is not one of those achievements players can unlock by accident or by playing solo. Several players expressed the lack of companions to be the reason for not being able to complete this trophy.
How to complete the ‘It’s the Only Way to Be Sure’ achievement?
To complete and unlock the ‘It’s the Only Way to Be Sure’ achievement, players need to “have six orbital barrage stratagems in the same place at the same time.” However, it must be noted that this cannot be done solo. It requires players to have the support of at least one friend. Additionally, both players will have to level up to unlock the following three Orbital Cannons:
Orbital Gatling Barrage
- Level 2
- 1,500 R
Orbital 120MM HE Barrage
- Level 5
- 4,000 R
Orbital 380MM HE Barrage
- Level 8
- 7,500 R
Basically, players only need to have the orbital stratagems that have the word “barrage” in them. Next, players are required to equip all three of the orbital barrages together as a team and begin a mission. Notably, it does not have any difficulty level requirements, thus players can easily choose an easier mission to avoid getting swamped by enemies right after spawning.
After landing on the ground, players must start throwing all of their orbital barrages in the same location. The achievement requires that all the orbital barrages must be active at the same time in Helldivers 2. Speed in punching the codes and throwing the barrages is the key here.
Players may also use the Orbital Walking Barrage (level 10 and 7,500 R) to unlock the trophy. This barrage takes about 7–8 seconds to complete. This gives players enough time to punch in the other barrage stratagems. In the same vein, players must throw the Orbital Gatling Barrage towards the end.
Notably, the ‘It’s the Only Way to Be Sure’ achievement is even easier with a full four-member squad in Helldivers 2. With a four-member squad, players can easily split all six orbital barrages in any order of their choice.
