[@TundraCrow]

Reasons I think getting team killed in Helldivers 2 is still funny and makes you smile after 100 times are the following: 1. Limited punishment for dying as its quite expected of you as a player so you accept your fate of death as a game mechanic. 2. Quick respawn timer that gives you a restock on your consumables and ammo leaving you possibly better off then when you died. 3. Probably happened because of an explosion. Who doesn't loves those? 4 Rag doll physics.

[@jayjayfool1996]

One was actually one of the types of grenades from the game if you look closely

[@Jackson-ub1uv]

I think the reason why team-killing in Helldivers is funny is because it's often unintentional, whereas you almost have to make an active _effort_ to do it in other games. Helldivers is also designed in a way that means there are almost _zero_ repercussions to team-killing.

[@trulers8713]

Every other game requires aiming at a teammate and pulling the trigger for a solid couple of seconds. In helldivers, it takes one stray autocannon shell or something, and you are instantly atomized. It's also very funny the way the divers tend to just disappear. The ubsurdity of getting turned into goo by a bomb is always hilarious.

I feel that the secret sauce to winning on max difficulty (especially against the bots) is to treat it like Metal Gear Solid 5. Badger's crew are absolutely chaotic creatures, so they probably barely even saw it, but the game has COMPLEX stealth mechanics. You can Solid Snake your way through just about anything, including using strategems or other loud things to lure patrols away from where you want to be doing objectives. There are also specific commander enemies that WILL call in reinforcements unless you kill them quick. Game's shockingly deep.

[@jg2323]

Yeah, if you call in for weapons and stuff 5 seconds after first dropping on the map - You are immediately attracting any roaming patrols and listless enemies in the viscinity right on top of you. They can see and hear the beacons and willl move toward them so you can end up ambushed while your waiting for your autocannon to arrive. Test it out on lower difficulties in a big open area and see how far away a patrol can see it, and you'll think twice about immediately calling in your gear on higher difficulties.

[@WhiskyWombat556]

So basically if you mix Wolfenstein with Starship Troopers

[@inquisitorbenediktanders3142]

Yeah, the first game was all about killing patrolling enemies before they can call for reinforcements and dropping as far away from the objectives as possible so you could call in all your stuff, even on low difficulties. As long as you were succesful at that you had it very easy. The more players were there the harder this got, meaning that with increasing player count on the mission it would switch from a pseudo-stealth game to an action frenzy. Given how badger plays and the fact he's always around his friends when playing and how this game compared to it's predecessor is more action focussed, it's no surprise he didn't notice that at all.

In regards to the 'invisible mines', sometimes they end up beneath soil that's been shifted by explosions, but mainly the engine only has so many resources to display the pretty red lights to indicate mines, so when that budget runs out, new mines beyond that budget no longer have lights, which makes them INCREDIBLY hard to see if you're not paying attention, and literally impossible if they ended up beneath the ground.

My favorite part of the lore of this game is that the cyborgs were being used as slaves, so they rebelled and made Automatons, which now kill humans, harvest their brains, put them into robots, and turn them insane so they kill more humans, which is just ironic because that’s also slavery in a way.

The timeline is a bit different. In helldivers lore, the cyborgs were normal people that were labeled as dissidents and massacred by super earth. In response they began researching banned cybernetics and turned themselves into cyborgs to stand a chance against super earth. First galactic war happened, cyborgs lost, and they became enslaved. Their fully robotic children were created in secret and then began an offensive to free their creators who have been enslaved once they massed their forces.
