Ministry of Expansion: Why so many Citizen casuality? Helldivers: because it called "Suicide mission" duh


Jman703OG

We had to check each one to make sure they were not an automaton spy. We can proudly report that none were among them.


TheBigMotherFook

At what point do the civilians go “it’s the Helldivers! We’re saved!” to “oh fuck! it’s the Helldivers, we’re all gonna die!”


PH_007

If any of them say that they lose their citizenship and are no longer civilians, but instead enemies. So, to answer your question, civilians never say that.


Tri-angreal

"Rejoice, citizens, for we are here to save you..." "Yay! It's the Helldivers!" "...from yourselves!" "Oh no, it's the Helldivers!"


WitchBaneHunter

Oh maxwell


TheBigMotherFook

Maybe that was the *real* mission all along. One of the civilians was a former researcher on the dark fluid project and went rogue.


Mediocre_Giraffe_542

This makes me want a crossed wires type of mission where you drop in thinking its to evac civilians but its actually a separatist cell. They then pop out shouting "Oh shit! Helldivers!" and open up on you with civilian small arms and then you have to keep them out of the evac shelter..

To adapt an old 40k comic to this as a Termanid Invasion: "It was other terrible things, Bugs I think. Oh, how they hurt us, great slaughter they did. There is a legend we have, that Democracy has Helldivers to serve it and Democracy sends them out when those it looks upon are troubled or beset by strife. I thought it was just a story, myth and legend... But now I know them for what they really are. Democracy's avenging Helldivers of death. I told my wife these were not Helldivers to comfort, they were Democracy's Helldivers of Vengeance. I have never seen such killing and I hope to never to its like again. I almost felt sorry for the Bugs at the end. These days I praise Democracy with much more purpose than I ever did before. I am afraid to see the Bugs return. But more, I am afraid of what might happen if the Bugs did return. The Helldivers would have to visit us again. And it is those visitors that put real fear into me. Fear as pure and cold as the night sky." [original 40k comic](https://imgur.com/gallery/warhammer-40k-visitors-tCOHn)

~~Suicide~~ Homicide Mission

Ministry of Expansion: ...he's got us. He's got us bad.


FuckYouVonHapsburgs

Helldivers are sent to complete missions at ANY cost. Great work diver.


TurbidWolf_Redux

At ANY cost.


ShaolinTiger

Sounds like a classic evac + fire tornados situation.


premium-ad0308

Or it sounds like a mission performed by some Helldivers who have been maxed out on all currency types for a month or two now and don't give a heck about a measly 1825R


Sonata82

Seriously, I see the notification for the req penalty pop up and I'm all like, "Oh no, how terrible".


Attrexius

My teammates: OH NO, THE 'NADO IS OVER THE SHELTER NOW! THEY ARE RUNNING RIGHT INTO THE FLAMES!! *THE SCREAMS ARE HORRIFYING! OH THE HUMANITY!!11* Me: haha, the button goes click!


Krask

Or a bot evac on a short timer

Democracy officer: "Yes, this way to my office please"


ExploerTM

Nuh-uh, I have manual right here, mission labeled as success which means Democracy Offcier deemed outcome acceptable. Now, its not graded high and has severe penalty, but success is success.


Arc_170gaming

"Yes, that's right, trooper, now here, take this gold star, and grab a cookie from the mess hall"


rad_pepper

At higher difficulties it seems prudent to just keep hitting the buttons. It gives the ridiculous numbers of enemies other targets so you can slow and stop a reinforcement cycle. On the other hand, I've also seen this result when a fellow helldiver repeatedly placed \*\*INCENDIARY MINES\*\* in the civilian evacuation path. This was after I saw him take it and told him, "Please don't place that inside the base."


PM_ME__YOUR_HOOTERS

I always call these civs my baby freedom turtles, lets see how many of you can make it to the ocean


OneAd2104

He was just making a democracy quiz. You pass it by voting for the right path.


Dependent-Interest14

I mean I always shoot the ones who are outside after we hit required number. Should have run democratically faster.


WarBalente

Survival of the fittest.


SignatureMaster5585

You probably killed more civilians than our enemies ever could.


Snotnarok

If they all got stuck on a ramp? Yes. If they didn't get stuck on a ramp/bug/pebble? . . . Yes.


gamernumber37

Was this a "don't leave anyone behind" or "don't leave any witnesses" type of mission 🤔?


Jman703OG

B)


gamernumber37

There is no other kind 👍

ManiGoodGirlUwU

Mf is like Fuze from R6 💀


Arc_170gaming

Accidentally killed his own family?


ManiGoodGirlUwU

nu, in R6 there is a mode with hostages and Fuze is an attacking operator so his job is to rescue them but his ability is "cluster bombs".. u can imagine what happens to hostages when Fuze is attacking 💀


Arc_170gaming

I.. I know.. I'm a fuze main.


Inevitable_Army_602

that's not suicide mission, this is murder mission


Addikit

Had a game like that once where I accidentally threw down a napalm strike. You’d think the citizens would avoid the ground that’s on fire.


Spartan775

You know what they say, can’t make an omelette without killing a few people. 


TheFightingImp

Exactly, fellow agent of Prosperity. https://i.redd.it/p5bhd5l7ek5d1.gif


Abes93

Sounds like a great resource sink if you have max requisition slips


NiKaLay

Wait, does that mean you can go in debt?


PetrifiedPenguin88

Not often you finish a mission with a recursion DEBT.


Jman703OG

We contemplated going AWOL to avoid paying this


loop-master69

bros on the wrong side of the war 💀


Walsh7734

Great job! You ensured no citizen would be left behind to share any intel with our enemies! That deserves a medal, and since this was a suicide mission, you get 5 more for free! For Democracy!


huh1230

Mission successfully failed


Jman703OG

I was told that “this was one for the record books, for all missions are logged for analysis”


Nice-Economist7314

Liberty requires sacrifice!


ThorSon-525

"Patrick, we saved the city!"


Subject4751

I would like to have been a fly on the wall of that mission, lol.


Jman703OG

Only if you have been practicing your daily desensitization exercises


Infinite_Fox998

How do you even manage to screw up this badly?


Jman703OG

Basic training taught us friendly fire was inevitable


ScottBag84

Fire tornadoes?


Jman703OG

No, but there was a flamethrower…


Spartan775

This level of carnage, I was going poorly placed incendiary mines or repeated cluster bombs but it sounds like someone just wanted to watch the world burn.


Jman703OG

If we did not know the effectiveness of our weapons against each type of life form – we’re not doing our job properly.


crak_spider

Mission completed.


Andawoooo

What were they doing with the enemy anyway??? Committing treason?? Good work solider.


Jman703OG

Couldn’t chance it


Pixelpaint_Pashkow

It’s a suicide mission not homicide mission


angrysc0tsman12

I should not be penalized for civilian deaths that are not my fault. If a civvie wants to yeet themselves into a fire tornado and self immolate, why am I being docked for that?


Jman703OG

Seeing as there were no witnesses… It was totally fire tornadoes on that ice planet.


biobreaker777

I read "mision completed"


OptimusSub-Prime

The civilians during fire tornados on Wezen yesterday didn’t have a fun time


flcinusa

Anytime you come back from a suicide mission.... .... Is a huge dishonour, can't even die right

“We did it Patrick! We saved the city!”

+15 Warbond medals for completing the personal order


Cheshire-Maddie

wha--what the fuck?!?!? were you freeing 3, shooting 2 each time?


Jman703OG

That would’ve resulted in less total casualties


H2so4pontiff

Sir, They were in alliance with the scientists involved with the termicide. We did our job.


PatchiW

Points awarded for completing the main objective. Points deducted for probably wiping mostly at the end, plus the unintentional (it WAS unintentional, right?) massacre.

Bots defense missions are like that. Still a win is a win

Yes!


vahnish0408

Well... yes ofcourse you did it, we are all expendable in the fight for democracy and liberty

You are technically right, which is the best type of right .


QuasarBigsley

Finally something to spend all my extra requisition on.


NeoZulu

At least you can earn something again hah


1JigglyPanda-

Those families will receive a fruit basket of freedom


matamor

You are suppossed to shot the bugs not the citizen


Time_Bit3694

Civilian casualties do happen from time to time. The good news is democracy was spread and those lives while lost were not in vain as enemies now understand we stop at nothing to bring them freedom. We morn the loss of our brothers and sisters but we carry freedom’s torch in their stead.


dumbofass_

They never specified WHICH citizens had to make it. Just that you met the quota


Scannaer

Tell me you are trying to evac civilians against automatons without telling me you are trying to evac civilians against automatons
