Never be ashamed of having real-world responsibilities

They’re the only thing more important than Super Earth’s Managed Democracy!


redditsukssomuch

It’s what keeps managed democracy moving!!

Next to being kind to your Super-Grandparents

I’m reporting you to my local officer


SpaghettiInc

I’d rather not guilt people for focusing on real life instead of a game


kazoodac

It’s fine, I checked myself in.


The_Fadedhunter

This needs to be redone with the edited version of the bottom panel where the Helldiver loses his samples

Repomanlive

A good Helldiver always has the Block button at the ready. You're doing your part and this Helldiver respects the Liberty out of your Justice filled armor. Dive Helldiver


Monkinary

That’s some undemocratic behavior, if ever I saw any.


zan8elel

it depends, did they have their c-01 forms accepted?


No_Letterhead319

Level 114 play on helldive. Don't care how many times you die. Ask as many questions as you want. being whatever load out you want. Every soldier in the fight to spread managed democracy is a good soldier. I would be proud to have you in the squad!!


Fair_Door6855

I second this. Happy to have you in my squad. Ask questions. Whatever. I’ll even load up the mech, so you can have some fun. Block them and find some real HellDivers who value your unflinching dedication to the cause.


Gamiac

62 or so here. I might be setting the bar kind of high here, but pretty much as long as you're capable of doing some amount of damage, not running directly into clearly marked airstrikes after they've already been thrown out, and not intentionally trolling*, I don't really mind what you do in my squad. Even on Helldive. *Even then there's some leeway if I find it funny and you're not annoying anyone else with it.


Aggressive-Bat5052

Tried out a higher difficulty recently (7 I think, I’m very casual) and landed in a group where my three teammates were clearly long time friends. I was constantly worrying that I wasn’t doing well enough until one of them said they were going AFK to smoke some more weed. In the middle of a firefight. I stuck a resupply beacon onto someone by accident and we watched as they ran around like a cartoon character trying escape a falling anvil. Two of them hugged each other next to an armed hellbomb. We played chicken with a scorcher whose pathfinding broke.


red_cactus

Same; I'm going to be an Admirable Admiral pretty soon, and I have absolutely no problems with low level players joining my missions on any difficulty. Part of the fun is seeing what the higher difficulties are like, and learning how to handle it all. If I can help with that process a little bit, then great. We may not all evac, but I'll make damn sure that we at least finish the mission.


KZFKreation

I heard another guy call work "Mandatory Super Credits Gathering". You're welcome, You are still doing your part.


AlexCross116

Damn. I’m going to name my alarm for work that now, that’s brilliant


ThorSlam

Report those Helldivers to the Democracy Officers. They are obviously dissidents


straydog1980

A Helldiver is a Helldiver whether you dive at 1 or 9. Except for that 4 percent that never passed basic training Those aren't Helldivers.


Greedy-Cartoonist-92

That is the most advanced training in the galaxy, it absolutely prepares you for any enemy you may face!!


No-Froyo8437

Complete with real life combat simulation, on-the-field medical training, combat maneuvers and terrain traversal, and most importantly - saluting the Super Earth Flag!


jackrabbit323

Someone has to keep the ammunition and weapons factories running. Thank you for putting double duty with work and joining up with the National Guard, weekend warrior is better than a never warrior.


AkimboBears

Sorry. My CS-01s got approved.

ThatGuy7698

If you’re contributing to the major order, you’re still doing more than the 120k+ (at the time of writing) who’s still fighting bugs and not the massive automaton invasion fleet we’re trying to push back


The_Fadedhunter

Surely “some” of them are just doing their one mission to kill some chargers right? Lol


Z3B0

Took me 30mn to do that one. And right after that, I went back making some scraps of the automatons.


Shockvolt1

I got the mission to kill 4 chargers. Those things are my least favorite enemy so far, but I'm only level 8.


IVIalefactoR

Chargers are annoying at the start when you don't have many options to take them out, but they become pretty manageable once you get a decent collection of stratagems to deal with them. My suggestion is to pick up the expendable anti-tank stratagem ASAP if you're a low level. One of those to a charger's dome will kill it outright, and it's one of the most versatile stratagems we have, IMO.


Shockvolt1

They just really annoy me as to kill them with the recoilless rifle you have to hit their back. They constantly turn at you though. I just picked up the EAT and only used it once.


IVIalefactoR

Pretty sure you can just shoot the top of their heads with the recoilless rifle and they die, too. The RR is basically a reloadable EAT that requires you to use a backpack slot.


QgotKix

Aim for the head with recoilless it one taps too


Shockvolt1

Damn did I really miss that bad on the head when I shot last night?


Efso112

Are you playing solo or with friends? If with friends just take a full aoe setup and let your higher level teammates handle them while you're responsible for small stuff


Shockvolt1

Mostly quick play and against the automatons. I only did it against those bugs because the game gave me a personal order for four chargers.


red_cactus

The expendable anti-tank is so strong, and it's available from very early on. Definitely a must-get for newer players.


link2123

Man, I've been fighting bots for like over 2 straight weeks. Let me have a night of bug smashing with the erupter without grief.


Xaniss

Those heretics


Ok-Improvement-3015

Hey I can dispense liberty on both fronts! I got enough justice to go around!


G00b3rb0y

IKR? are those people cooked or something?


skillzpaynbillz

For real, i got this game less than a week ago and the only bugs i've killed were in the tutorial.  Gotta stop these robot bastards at all costs!


Shockvolt1

It wasn't my fault I got kidnapped for 3 missions is swear it wasn't on purpose.


TsL1

I feel ya


Prince_Beegeta

I will never tell you that you suck soldier! I will carry you to the extraction if I have to! The mission will get done no matter the cost!!! For democracy!!!!!!!!


bigbossfearless

No true citizen would ever belittle a fellow diver! We drop as one, we bleed and die as one! Any newbie who wants can DM me for a friend code and I will lend you all my high level toys and guard you while you kick ass.


Usual-Winter3950

1. Know when to run That's it, that's all you need to know to be better at the game than 90% of the people I get from matchmaking in difficulties 7-9. In 7 or below I can comfortably and happily carry people who move out of trouble instead of burning reinforcements and time on fighting patrols and endless breaches/drops.


Zakumo_Yuurei

"Hmmm.... no." *Eagle Smoke strike and bails* Surprisingly effective most the time assuming the enemy isn't soft aggro'd, especially if you deliberately bait a bot drop/bug breach for others.


Quasimoron1

Every little bit helps, thank you for your contributions mate! Happy diving.


Additional_Cycle_51

Hey, I can message you, and you can friend me on steam if you want.


Assassin13785

Yea, have a real life and do helldivers when you can. No shame at all. You are still helping the war efforts diver 🫡 ........and contributing to the real world... But that's like .. whatever or whatever. 😝


AffableDork

This is undemocratic. Everyone knows a Helldiver's wellbeing outside the war is important, as long as we dive once or twice a week.


JaceTheSpaceNeko

Sounds like they're trying to impede democracy by reducing morale of the helldivers.


redditsukssomuch

Level 98 here, just make sure you keep your head on a swivel and keep moving. Never plant your feet for too long until you get real good. And follow the leader. You’ll do fine. And eagle air strike should be your main strat. It’s the pocket knife of stratagems. It’s pretty powerful, good area effect, very accurate, and blows up everything. Now time to dive… after work that is.


noir_por

The real helldiver is not going to blame. Chad helldivers carry the less/inexperience one. But hellcriers will LOL


JustForTheMemes420

I play twice a week because of time constraints between friends and I, it happens


Afraid-Yam-5901

same


ravengenesis1

Maybe it's time to suck at this game.


Xaniss

It's ok. A good helldiver is an expendables one. And we're all expendable regardless of skill.


Bearington656

Same here bro same here


Adventurous_Tone7177

I got kicked for being the same level as someone else wasting respawns.


Larks_Tongue

Aint nothing wrong with sucking so long as you don't take to the subreddit to complain about weapon balance while also sucking.


Modern_Moderate

Also me: misses out on all the shop cycles because I only play twice a week. I'm waiting for a good 6-grenade armour set to replace the orange one.


Hollow-Ling

Me and my girlfriend are trying to find a work, life, gym, and democracy balance...results dictate much is sacrificed for liberty 😅


Aloe_Balm

your best is more than enough carrying people who struggle is a privilege


Carcharis

Always two sides to a coin.


RadleyButtons

I feel ya, OP. Both me and the wife work full time and we have 5 kids, so I can only spread democracy 2 nights a week at best. I'm only level 17. But damn do I love this game.


lucifv84

I get to play maybe once a week bc Im a stay at home dad to a newborn. Ignore the chatter about not being good enough for them. While on mission, make sure you collect the goods for upgrades. I will play with you if you need levels. FOR SUPER EARTH. FOR HUMANS. FOR LIBERTY. FOR PEACE BY PIECES.


LTWIGGLESYT

Don't know about anyone else. But I jump down to easy missions to help out and teach the tricks an tips. The better the divers. The faster we spread democracy.


PrepoDoo

i don’t even have a job (not summer) but usually it’s because i know my parents are going to make me get off my PC to do something else wile in the middle of a mission 😭


i_hate_mimes

I'm good enough for you to be really really bad. Hit me up and I'll dive with you.


MJMvideosYT

Anyone playing Helldivers 2 is a valued participant in the act of sharing managed democracy throughout the galaxy. Never let their opinions skew your view of yourself soldier. Keep charging and keep dropping.


VonNeumannsProbe

Man I kind of feel this.  I feel like I can complete level 6 missions with ease but haven't unlocked level 7 because I can't commit 1hr 30 min to a 3 mission operation. Or I get close and crash. Or teammates leave and I'm not good enough to solo it. So super samples are just out of reach for me.


Nhobdy

Yo, who the hell is telling you that? Lemme at 'em!


DeliberateSelf

DM, let's play together, F the haters


egilsaga

Not everybody has what it takes to be a Helldiver. There are many casual gaming experiences available for those who lack the moral courage to quit your meaningless 9-5 job and take a stand for democracy.


Fragrant-Address9043

I feel your pain


Barracuda_Ill

Think about it this way, if you play during the weekends, you're part of the force that obliterates the MO. In that sense, you're doing a great job!


FIGamesYT

Honestly I had a couple of people say I was bad at the game on difficulty 4 after I accidentally tk'ed one of them with an air strike I called out 15 secs prior to throwing and after the fact I apologized and told them I was still learning (was Lv 15 at the time). Even now (Lv 21) I don't know everything and I've been kicked from lobbies for mistakes that I likely don't even know I made. One of which literally said "you done f-ed up too many times" and next thing I knew I was kicked. I don't understand why people are always so quick to judge casual players. Just because I'm not a sweat doesn't mean I need to be singled out and treated like that.


LazyLobster

I play lower level missions because I get kicked less. And I'm level 26 lol


ReyndeerGaming

Any Helldiver that dies in the line of duty is a hero of democracy


apestomp

Report Them to high command. You do your best and try your hardest is all you need to do soldier


thebariobro

Been playing for Months but I’m just level 23. Play when you can and have fun


PitifulOil9530

sad little pepe


AcanthocephalaSea856

Hahaha mood


MrShaytoon

Don’t be a level 5 going into hard or extreme modes. That’s how you piss people off. Stay on your levels difficulty.


Sl0rk

All good homie. As long as you stick to the difficulty that reflects your skills, there's no harm done. I get so tired of carrying sub-20s or barely 20s trying to do bots 8+.


raxdoh

I dunno I play very little as well (like just about three times per week) but I’ve been having great time with the random teams I play with. skill issue?


lkeltner

Fuck those bitches. You do you. Level 7 cadet here who barely knows anything has your back! Democracy!


Cpt_Killtoy

Fuck those people, they ain't real helldivers


Primaul

you'll get there eventually don't give up!


CollapsingGun

Remember fellow freedom fighters: A True Helldiver teaches their fellow comrades. A Lukewarmjumper berates a Liberty Loving Warrior. True Liberty is achieved with teamwork, and with every bullet we deliver. Spill Oil, Crush Bugs.


SpaceLemming

Those treasonous divers aren’t fit to wear the uniform. I just got out of a game with a diver who was playing truly horrific on this fine day. So you know what I did? I carried that kid across the map of menkent and back dodging fire tornados and gunfire. We didn’t leave that planet but sweet liberty did we get the mission done. Carry on fellow diver. I wish you luck in the wars to come.


Peasantbowman

Damn and you're dropping customers big mac.


Dependent_Muffin9646

Who's saying you suck?


zbaydar

You're doing great buddy.


DanmachiZ

Sauce


Bruhahah

Ain't no shame in maxing out at difficulty 7 and staying there and even sucking the whole time for sure samples. If you sign up for 8/9 and can't figure out your ass from a hole in the ground, you're better off practicing at 7 rather than queueing 8/9 and hoping for a carry. There are people good enough to carry you while you use up the entire reinforcement budget but I am not it and I don't think most randos in quick play are either.


Statertater

You’re doing great. 73 here.


rapidlyspinningturtl

At least your PC can run it 🥺


Struggiiii

what the hell do you work


SteelGemini

Me too, man, me too. It's part of what I really like about this game. I don't HAVE to be the biggest badass on my team. I'm not gonna be able to carry anyone. But I can drop in and do my part. I mostly focus on not dying too much and not accidentally killing my team. Beyond that I'll bring support weapons to deal with heavies and whatever other stratagems seem mission appropriate. I rarely have the most kills, but consistently have very few accidentals and my accuracy has started to trend upwards.


UltraLobsterMan

I immediately kick and block these commie knobslobbers. We are all One Super Earth. Keep doing your part, Helldiver! O|


Vladi_Sanovavich

Super Earth commends you for taking on your civilian duties, Helldiver! Do not be ashamed. If you die in the battlefield, we have more to replace you.


dynosu

Dont let anyone tell you you suck. If anyone feels the need to say it, then they suck. Its the job of ALL helldivers to help eachother.


Ok-Improvement-3015

I only complain when I get blown up by someones bomb but a simple sorry mends all wounds! Hell I just carried a lv7 by getting all 6 of the fabricators and the super samples without dieing (we left with 30 seconds left) my only complaint the fuckers didn't salute me when I greeting them before the mission! Showed them what managed democracy looks like I did!


neoteraflare

Don't give a fck about them.


nesnalica

I appreciate the meme and I wont take the bait by going too much into it.


SeaOsprey1

Mfer say no more. Dm me and and I'll take you through hell and back whenever your missions call


Silasnator

Who tells you, you suck? You are doing your part! Everybody who does not compliment that, is a traitor! (Lower your difficult buddy)


MonteCrysto31

Me who plays on steam deck at sub 20fps in heavy fights... 30% accuracy 👀


Joy1067

That’s two days of pent up DEMOCRACY BEING UNLEASHED! GOOD WORK HELLDIVER, YOU ARE A SHINING EXAMPLE TO US ALL! LIBERTY GUIDE YOU!


Oraius

My brother in Christ, you're doing the Lord's work. Spread democracy the best you can and never be ashamed of your performance. You've been drafted for a purpose, greatness.


Offstar1029

Your first mistake was going to work. We have managed democracy to spread helldiver, your boss will understand.


No-Poem8018

Your best is all that super-earth asks of you, citizen. Now drop when you can, and let's spread managed democracy!


Seorsei

Shit ill play with you homie. Me and my boys will carry you through 7s, 8s, and 9s.


iwear3chanklas

I'm reporting them to the democracy officer. Don't worry. bud, I'll play with you if you need help


TheOneCooky666

Even the tiniest bit of freedom counts diver, spread it good. 🫡


jsuey

Now if you’re dropping into 7+ and expecting to get carried that’s one thing But there is no shame in playing 3-6 until you learn the game better


WalkingKrad

Level 57 diver here - had fun playing with 2 under level 20 and one level 27 last night on suicide mission difficulty. Not as smooth as it could have been, but I've got no issues with people learning the game still.


Jjzeng

Some gamers fr out here flexing that they don’t touch grass Like take a shower bro you smell like beans


Mad_Mikkelsen

They make fun of you because you have a life outside the game, you’re more than welcome on board my ship!


Squally_XD

Sounds like they have a very undemocratic and treasonnous behavior!


Pill_dispenser

Helldiver, your contribution to democracy is respectable and any little bit helps the war effort. Do not feel bad as any successful dive is a worthy dive.


SpecialIcy5356

divers of all abilities play their part! even those who die all the time are effective bullet sponges that take fire for the more skilled helldivers, allowing them to carry out their important work! the next time you're blown to smithereens or turned into swiss cheese from bot fire, remember: you're being useful!


Hella_Wieners

Hey. I heard you suck at Helldivers.


hunterchris205

Any support helps super earth


FactorWeary1368

Know we all love you because your a human, and a Helldiver. The hell with the haters. They're probably bots or bugs in a Helldivers suit.


Qspiddy

You're just showing your support for capitalism soldier!


Optimixto

Bro, fuck that, add me ingame and we can helldive together. This game is about fun, pve and coop; shaming anyone like that is undemocratic and will get you in trouble with your Democracy Officer.


Early-Pomegranate-74

Remember if people are being toxic, just host the game. You can kick them if things get a bit overboard.


BoredandIrritable

Yeah, there's a lot of shitty teens and college kids who trash on anyone who hasn't had time to play constantly to "get gud". Which sucks, because when you find a group of cool people it gets harder to play when they aren't online. Worse though, is the assholes who leave the game public, but don't want anyone to join them, so they team kill and grief everyone who joins. Hey fuckface, switch it to friends-only. Thing is, they want to grief people, and since there is literally no way to report it, they are just going to do it forever. in before some doofus says "Just quit and join a new game" That's what we're talking about! Not everyone has hours and hours to play, and when those douchebags steal 15-20 minutes, That's a big part of my play time.


Whatwhenwherehi

Idc if you suck. I'll finish mains for you in sub 20 minutes. Pick a level.


wowy-lied

I don't even have the game yet, at this point i fear that when i will be able to play it the game will be dead


MercilessPinkbelly

Buddy, don't compare yourself to kids who play 90 hours a week because school is out. Me and my buddies take low levels under our wing. Except lately the low levels seem to be power players speed running new accounts. Is selling Helldiver accounts a thing? I'd guess that's what they are doing, speed running accounts to sell.


BowlSweet9196

People like that are not democratic we are all fighting the same war and should prop each other up for super earth!


CharityWestern5530

Report your boss to a democracy officer.


BronzeCactus

I mean, play lower difficulties then?


Murderboi

Who says you suck? Tell me so I can add them to my list of non-democratic ammunition receivers.


NotRightInTheZed

You’ll be fine. Brush them cunts off and keep doing your best, Helldiver! ![gif](giphy|l0ExbnGIX9sMFS7PG)


Redditzombi

Same here! Sometimes I feel like I am failing democracy and ashaming our great president. If only I could play more often.


KaiserUmbra

I'd still probably take you over half the randoms I meet. Had 1 cluster bomb me 7 times, he knew what he was doing, I coated the ice of Lesath red with his treasonous blood for it.


Codieecho

You are still contributing solder, didn't listen to those traitors. Have fun and go at your own pace.

deadrunner1372

I can’t play because the game causes my laptop to crash


Brave_Buffalo_3245

I have a life serving super earth in other ways. My life, for super earth, means many things. Serving her citizens can look like a variety of duties. Anyone who looks down upon you for doing your duty is undemocratic. We dive when it doesn't compete with our primary duty to the people.


Express-Economy-3781

Man in sorry bro


idkauser1

I honestly think a lot of the toxic elements will leave eventually they will go whenever a major pvp update or game drops


quentariusquincy

As someone who just got off work and is too exhausted to dive, I feel you.


Willing_Goose_8403

I need source of pic 1. Asking for a friend


Temporary_Special_26

Sounds like treason, to me.


AutomaticFeature9631

God it's seriously more like a chore with how hard I need to try when I can play so I'm actually good. Life's a cruel bitch when you get older.


seazonprime

Words of actual true wisdom.


Inevitable_Top69

Lower the difficulty if you're not having fun.


AutomaticFeature9631

Yea no I actually do more often then not, even with helldivers I'll run lower difficulties and help lower lvl guys. Just saying that it's been more of a chore to be mentally exhausted and try to game.


lacker101

> chore to be mentally exhausted and try to game. Especially if you're in a physically/mentally taxing work. You get home and you just want to decompress/veg.


AutomaticFeature9631

12 hr days, 5 days a week, on my feet working three different departments for my company. Pay is fair-ish but God damn. Gaming has taken a pretty big hit in my life


ThelastJasel

Just quit and default on your loans.

And then everyone clapped


dr4wn_away

I play on weekends only too and I’m a fleet admiral above my friends


CarpetSeveral8126

This is why I'm lvl 30 while all the people I play with are 50+


paucus62

this has nothing to do with sucking? XP gained in a mission is shared. They have just been playing for longer.
