How to Walk With Stratagems

If you’re playing Helldivers2 for the first time, you’ll notice that you remain absolutely still when entering stratagem commands. That said, it’s not ideal to be standing still in an ongoing battle against alien forces. However, there is a way to fix this problem!

Change Controls

The default control settings to access stratagem commands are the “WASD” keys, these keys are also used for movement in the game. To walk while using a stratagem, you will need to change your control settings under the “Options” menu. Then, go to “Mouse& Keyboard“, as seen in image above.

Then, scroll all the way down to the bottom of the settings and change your “Stratagem” controls to any other keys but “WASD.” Change your stratagems controls to the arrow keys, it makes it easier to access in battle while walking.

Now that you’ve changed your command keys, you’ll be able to through a grenade and run away at the same time!
