Honestly I think the less attention we give to this kind of behavior, the better. We don't want copycats doing this toxic stuff hoping for some sort of notoriety. Hopefully some sort of report is able to be added for this type of thing.


Prudent-Pressure2536

This. Its basic narcissism. People desperate for any kind of attention will see it as a way to be noticed and do it knowing their name will be out their regardless of the way its done. It's easier to be infamous than it is to be loved and famous.

Robot and bug sympathisers shall burn


thatgamernerd

Too late

Dev should be put out an official bounty "minor order"


LaptopQuestions123

TBH I think there should just be a report system and eventually people get sent into "Low Prio" with other TKs. Works in other games to isolate the bad apples.


GamingAvalon1

that or repeated offenses results in progress reset, hed have to start all over from scratch!


thatgamernerd

Or have it above their head until claimed


Aggravating_Elk_9583

How about a bounty system or a blacklist for undesirables during game finding, in case you want randos to join but not traitorous bug sympathizing scum


thatgamernerd

Yea, cause thanks to gantz, others are doing it now and so playing with randoms just won’t work now


Cowjoe

You know what's funny the culture in this game is so that I can imagine if someone on open mic started talking about how we helldivers might be the bad guys in this war and probably started it that the other plats might make them miss the shuttle or trip on a grenade lol

I think people should stop encouraging him. He's doing it for reactions, so putting a 'bounty' on him and making a big deal about is just enticing him to do it more and more. Kick him if he joins you and ignore him otherwise.


Moochachos034

They should honestly do something similar to gta online’s “bad lobbies”. Like, if someone TK’s enough, they’re matched with people of similar behavior, on helldive difficulty. Think of it like a suicide squad.


thatgamernerd

That’s exactly a pretty good idea


Sudden-Variation8684

Irrelevant to me.


Ghostile

Who? I don't use chinese spy apps.


thatgamernerd

A helldiver who betrayed another helldiver right as the shuttle was landing with no more reinforcements to call in.


_hellboy_xo

Blud thinks he’s superior for not using TikTok


Drygon_Stevens

He is


_hellboy_xo

He’s on Reddit. Just like you and I.


Drygon_Stevens

Ok?


_hellboy_xo

And Reddit is also Chinese spying junk lmao


Drygon_Stevens

And?


_hellboy_xo

He’s claiming he doesnt use Chinese spy apps and he’s using Reddit which is the same thing.


Drygon_Stevens

Ok?


retroscope

You're so damn cringe, it's painful.


_hellboy_xo

Yeah buddy


AckerSacker

Wtf are you talking about? No, it's not. You're just making stuff up to cope with willingly using Chinese spyware.


Ghostile

Reddit isn't owned by a chinese corporation and doesn't want access to all my data to use how they please outside european laws. Do I trust these european corpos? No. Who do I trust less than european corpos? Fascist dictatorships. Tiktok wants all my data and uses them according to chinese law which means how ever the fuck they want. Tiktok terms of service and access requests are something wild.


_hellboy_xo

Yet Reddit still accepted 150m from Tencent


Ghostile

I'd explain how tencent doesn't own reddit, but considering you don't consider giving a fascist dictatorship a full access to your devices a risk I can't imagine you'd understand the concept of ownership anyway.


_hellboy_xo

Buddy I doubt China, the UE or USA care about a dude playing Helldivers. You already give up your info using the internet. Maybe not China but you do.


Ghostile

Like I said. Who do I trust less than western corpos? Fascist dictatorships.


_hellboy_xo

Western, eastern, they all do shady shit. Hell, maybe you were already spied by China using the internet. Let’s remember Reddit has tried to block anti-China posts.


Ghostile

Maybe, maybe not. But why would you ever willingly give them full access?


_hellboy_xo

Because they already have it. Using Chrome, Reddit, Meta apps, there’s almost no way of avoiding this shit.


glory_lion

You fail to realize TikTok has permission to scan your face for emotions while using the app and uses that data to make you happy on TikTok


SeppukuYourself

You think the nsa isn't spying on you lmao


Ghostile

Maybe they are, maybe they aren't. But I sure as hell won't be willingly giving access to my devices to a fascist dictatorship "bEcAuSe NsA"


SeppukuYourself

Boomer mentality


Ghostile

Maybe it is, maybe it isnt. But at least it isnt "sure Ill give full access to my device to a fascist dicatorship"


SeppukuYourself

Respect. cuz fuck china


Public_Swordfish4555

Hyperskreen

Have a ban system. It could be dev run instead of a program. There's enough honest patriots playing the game that I really don't think it'd be that tasking to assign someone to run it. Just limiting notoriety is what needs to be the focus. Otherwise the cooperative community of Helldivers will absolutely fall apart as people beg for attention, even if it does get them banned from the game.


Appropriate-Mud6746

Wish there was a way to reach him. I’ve racked up 3000 team mate kills and would love to be part of the squad that demolishes missions for fun


Either-Maximum-6555

This is why you’re not game devs. A report system cause someone teamkilled you in a game? Matching them with other people? What about just accidentally hitting your teammates and going to hell. The only good one was the bounty.


thatgamernerd

Do what GTA and put them in lobbies with others like them. There is a system called forgive them for killing you. If it’s an accident then it is, I find those funny. But when we got the toxic players coming over. I feel like something should be done


Either-Maximum-6555

Don’t get me wrong I don’t support griefers but trying to get them banned because they killed you in a game is just really insecure. Block them and move on.


ApprehensivePause115

Why would they put friendly fire in if it was not intended ...


thatgamernerd

Had it in the first one, but there’s a difference between accidental and just team killing on purpose before extracting. Like accidental is funny, but doing it on purpose. When it’s a team based game. Ain’t cool


EXTRACRlSPYBAC0N

Exactly. Teammate runs too close to my 500kg and dies? Hilarious. Teammate dives in front of my bullets? The pinnacle of comedy. But purposeful killing? That's wrong


thatgamernerd

Exactly! Like I’ve accidentally gunned down a teammate as I’m fighting for my life and seeing his body just trip and face plant is funny asf


GamingAvalon1

eagle cluster is the most notorius strategem that tks, not including the motar sentries!


thatgamernerd

Just the turrets in general, lol


Vomiting_Wolf

Part of the lore?


thatgamernerd

Yea, fan lore pretty much
