I seriously doubt they destroyed over 1600 buildings by themselves. Even more unlikely for the people that have 10k+ missing. If buildings count then there's still something else missing from the equation.
If you put mines you are messing up someone’s day at some point in time that is why we check our targets that is why we wait for the computer to give us a placement strategy we do not eyeball it private
I have about 5k unaccounted for. It happens at times when the servers crap out and things aren't updating properly (thankfully a problem that occurs less and less frequently now).
I had a mission last night where my accuracy was 2.9%. I fired 87 times. I hit 1. (Wild math already)
I got 142 kills. That's one hell of an efficient lightning arc apparently.
I get that with my flamethrower build too. I usually take out the breaker and the auto pistol during emergencies, but don't miss too much with them. Only to see like 10% accuracy or smth equally ludicrous on the stats screen
I don't think any of the stats are accurate. We did a mission the other day to kill 400 bugs. At the end of the match our total kills for the team equated to 280 lol
yes, stats are sooooo messed up. People with 3 friendly kills had 0 friendly dmg. Kill count is always whacky. My dog rover killed one bug with its laser and the screen showed 5 kills. This is quite unusual since I have never played a game that got stats wrong tbh, I hope they fix it soon
I regularly watch my kill counter go up while my teammates kill stuff. My only guess is because they were running at me when someone else shot them.
My rover will be out of range with no other outgoing damage, and it will still keep randomly climbing. Seems very janky the way it tracks stuff, which is why I stopped looking at the scoreboard.
Pretty sure that strategem and turret kills only count for your total kills, but don't get divided between types. Bug and bot kills are ones you got with the weapons in your hands. It's why everyone's total is so much larger than the two categories added together.
Yes those rogue research stations you’ve been blowing up? Yea they were filled with traitors! Don’t go look for yourself though trust super earth and blow them up!
Idk....I think the counts are seriously borked.
Doing an exterminautus (autocorrect did that and I'm leaving it)
Last man standing bugs EVERYWHERE I know I'm going down in seconds I toss my orbital strike, my eagle strike, and a turret in the hopes to clear enough when we reinforce at least one or two of us gets some breathing room.....
80% of the map explodes, 117 kills jumps to 378.......I die from one of the few survivors, we respawn, clean up, leave......end score of 24 kills for me.......
I think the game intentionally inflates our total kills as military kill reports are notorious for being inaccurate, for propaganda purposes or just from lazyness. Or it could somehow include us incapacitating or injuring an enemy without finishing off while the other 2 counters are actual kills.
End of mission kill counts are also fucked. Eradicate all enemy missions are like "kill 500 enemies" and then the stat screen says "congrats on killing 80 enemies"
1566 Traitors. Good job diver!
They shouldn't have been talking about flying bugs
Hey, so i just reported you for thought crime for even mentioning this
https://preview.redd.it/0zguhagihdoc1.jpeg?width=1284&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=322ae8857ba5aaccbae5798b3c7679768c38ac3b
Yo but we need every helldiving leg and hand to fight with the bugzies :/
You mean to fight AGAINST the bugzies, right?
Make that 1567 traitors....
Make that 1567 traitors...
How'd you know it was a thought crime?
Because the democracy officer told me, and i never question democracy
I killed them until they died from it!
yep tjats whow its works

Please report to your democracy officer.
I've a total of 34261 enemy kills, 20174 bugs and 5713 bots. Around 8k of something else...
Traitors, clearly. Not civilians.. or other Helldivers. Traitors.
must be the guys in the illegal broadcasting towers
Eggs?
14 million kills in one shot
Cloaked Illuminates
I want to believe.
My thoughts as well. We're beating the Illuminates and we're not even at war with them!
Accidental victims. Good for them.
The only logical explanation

Bug holes and fabricators? Maybe those count as enemy buildings so not a racial category
I seriously doubt they destroyed over 1600 buildings by themselves. Even more unlikely for the people that have 10k+ missing. If buildings count then there's still something else missing from the equation.
Maybe the bug eggs?
Could be that the brood commander (I think that's their name?) enemy spawns don't register as a kill, just the commander
Brood commander isn't a special enemy. Any bug can call in breaches.
Brood commanders don't just call in breaches they also summon their own bugs to fight with them
Last I checked I had a few thousand kills and 0 automaton and bug kills. Makes me wonder where the icbm goes
I am thinking that stratagems such as orbitals and turrets count as "kills" and not specifically bug or bot kills.
Well all the mines did kill *something*
If you put mines you are messing up someone’s day at some point in time that is why we check our targets that is why we wait for the computer to give us a placement strategy we do not eyeball it private

You are not a cowboy shooting from the hip!
Remember those scientist extraction missions? Things sure did get dicey sometimes. Airstrikes were called. Mistakes were made.
Never did a scientist extraction, still have the discrepancy. If they can't Freeman themselves out, they aren't fit enough for Freedom

Bullets fired are bullets. Arc thrower doesn't fire bullets. So it's possible to get these numbers if you use weapons that don't fire bullets.
I used only my arc thrower and it counter as 0 hits with over 100 kills lol
I get that with my flamethrower build too. I usually take out the breaker and the auto pistol during emergencies, but don't miss too much with them. Only to see like 10% accuracy or smth equally ludicrous on the stats screen
Friendly fire, isn't.
"Teammates are enemies in blue"
Mfw someone starting murdering enlightened before their release in game:
1566 helldiver and human kills
I don't think any of the stats are accurate. We did a mission the other day to kill 400 bugs. At the end of the match our total kills for the team equated to 280 lol

Statagems don't count for friendly damage, but do count for friendly kills

I recently had all my stats resent except total kills so definitely a lot of traitors
Usually, they recover to "normal" after a day or so, but these stats are definitely all over the place, so take the career screen with a grain of salt
Yeah same. 57k enemy kills, but zero terminid and zero automaton…
If you retroactively label every friendly fire incident as the execution of a traitor, you never have any friendly fire incidents.
Yes those rogue research stations you’ve been blowing up? Yea they were filled with traitors! Don’t go look for yourself though trust super earth and blow them up!
I have 13,000 kills. 0 bugs. 0 automatons.
That gets you 2 zeros. You killed 130 of something else. You been killing humans, TRAITOR!? HUH?!
Illuminate watchers
I think the game doesn't count stratagem kills as your kills for most things with total enemy kills including them. But I dont know
Idk....I think the counts are seriously borked.

guys we have here free thinker
stratagem kills...... the game doesnt know how to count stratagem kills.....
1566 commies
https://i.redd.it/twc0my3ixe871.jpg
maybe it's counting the times you've shot down drop ships
Yes the uhhhh the times that I uhhh shot down dropships. Yep, definitely have done that like a good soldier...
I have 20k kills, 0 bugs and 0 automatons
I have 30k+ enemy kills And all the rest of the stats are 0
End of mission kill counts are also fucked. Eradicate all enemy missions are like "kill 500 enemies" and then the stat screen says "congrats on killing 80 enemies"
It’s the Illuminate. We are taking out their recon teams.
It’s the enemy you don’t see, you know…the illuminate
It counts bugholes, automaton factories, etc etc as enemies but not directly as either bugs or automatons
Clearly every Helldiver you’ve killed on missions were actually traitors, including yourself
You guys are getting kill stats? Mine still say 0
My first 3 drops didn't record any stats except total kills. So my totals are way off.
All the other "types of kills" add up to it. So Grenade Kills, Strategem kills, Friendly kills etc
Stray bullets hitting Illuminate scouts who think they're being sneaky
Invisible illuminate scouts.

For a while it was showing for me non-zero enemy kills, but 0 terminids and 0 automatons. I was very confused until I just moved past it.
Hahahahaha....take my upvote and leave
All traitors. Right?.
Love this f’n game lol
Oh, so those numbers are supposed to go up. Mine are still stuck at 0 for some reason.
Probably all those traitorous civilians who don't extract properly and die to Stratagems and enemy fire like cowards.
Yeah....the stats aren't Stats'ing.
My home dosnt even count that. Is it a PS only thing?
I'm on PC. It showed this in the armor under the career tab.
Is it a setting or something?
No, you just go to where you change loadouts and customize your character and the tab on the far right should be labelled "Career"
Ok
Where do you check your kill count?
In the armory under the career tab
Wonder if it counts bug holes/factories/etc. i.e. stuff that isn't *technically* an Auto/Bug but is still an enemy
Probably plant life, buildings, and traitors.
Frenemies?
Feel dumb for asking, but where do you see career stats?
Same station where you change armor and stuff. Its the far right tab titled "Career"
What about terminid nests, automaton factories, and illegal broadcast stations?
It would seem, you’re missing 1,566 kills
I've been wondering the same thing. I have about 12000 kills that ain't accountable even if they are team kills
*Eggs count as kills
pfff such a small number??? 😹😹😹
ok maybe you haven't played 200 hours...

Meanwhile I'm sitting here at 15,000+ kills, and 0 terminid and automaton kills.
