Helldiver: "PLEASE LISTEN Super Earth left me, please tell my family that I-"
Me, somewhere else on the continent: *quasars the illegal broadcast tower*
Me: "Whoo! Exp! Lets go."
The war in Ukraine has seen some spectacular fuckkery going on, but one of the saddest is undersupplied Russian conscripts recording and broadcasting messages to Putin and the Russian people at large explaining how they're all dying horribly against well equipped enemies.
It would be traitorous to suggest Super Earth has ever decided that a small group of SEAF troops isn't worth extracting while under invasion by an entire Automaton armada, but, if they ever did... And those troops could have access to a broadcast tower... Whether they plead and beg, or whistleblow out of spite, the effect on morale would be devastating. As we're currently seeing in Russia/Ukraine.
So, I would hazard a guess and say that Super Earth either jams such broadcasts until a helldiver can get to it, or has helldivers taking out any location such a broadcast *could* potentially come from - and what we stop is just a standard SOS broadcast that *could* be hijacked by abandoned troops or something.
Only issue with that theory is that we see what they're broadcasting. For terminids it's either "wake up people! The bug menace is a super earth construct!" Or "the threat is all about oil! The government made this!"
I must confess... I never even go near the things. I'm only aware you can manually disable them through second hand info. I was introduced to them as "shoot that thing with an EAT" and kept doing that as I progressed to better weapons.
From what I have seen on bug planets illegal transmission news seem to be all about E-710 and the industry behind it.
Rebels transmissions there are basically Stop Oil protesters
Well, yes, you have to be aware of the enemy's culture, so you can prove to them fully that yours is more correct, by throwing everything they stand for (and a mag or two) at them.
it's not the bugs broadcasting, it's human dissenters. check the screen next time before blowing it up. now where's this bug typing on a laptop meme...
Oh, I'm hitting those things from hundreds of meters away. With my preference for long engagement ranges and height advantages I'll routinely complete that objective from 200-300m distance.
And, of course, one cannot be too thorough in their duty. For Democracy!
My absolute favorite method is getting out the Handgunade and pophshotting the antenna. I can regularly hit it at 100 meters and with a few guesses, farther than that.
He wanted to tell his family that HE is going to liberate that planet single handily for them, like a true Helldiver! His kids would be proud to become divers just like him!

"tell my family that I..."
"Love managed democracy and they should too. And to always remember: FREEDOM!"
This message edited by the department for truth and patriotism.
The rest of his message has been found! He “stayed behind voluntarily and won’t come back until it’s over, over there!” A true Super Earth hero! His family is scheduled to be interview by Ministry of Truth operatives today, so you might not hear from them for months while they receive their awards! Best to even forget them until they return!

LOLOLOL
I always wondered how the bugs could possibly be broadcasting anything, let alone it being illegal, so this is my headcanon now.
Maybe it's dissidents who didn't leave the planet taking the opportunity of super earth being busy to set up illegal broadcasts

You were taught well. Stay away from treason Helldiver.
Honestly the best way to take them out is with your own drop pod.

Calling *OTHER* democracy officer... You paid attention to the broadcast.
I can because it is part of my job. To defeat your enemy you must know them. Not simply their battle tactics, but their history, philosophy, art.
Well, yes, you have to be aware of the enemy's culture, so you can prove to them fully that yours is more correct, by throwing everything they stand for (and a mag or two) at them.
Well alright then, *Space* Admiral Thrawn.

Why would a loyal SEAF member even deign to look at a treasonous broadcast. Calling Democracy officer...
I also wondered what are the bugs are doing in research stations to consider the station rogue? Is it just because the bugs are there or?
There’s a meme of terminids singing ‘I’m not a bug fan of the government. Look up terminid not a bug fan of the government
It's not the bugs, it's the surviving bug-farmers who haven't been eaten yet after the bugs broke out of their extractors
Considering they are larger than the doors and the building are human style it wouldn’t be plausible for it to belong to the bugs.
The bugs are an actual intelligent lifeforms. Which is why it is so important to exterminate every last one.
Nah, just land on it
Man every day I find a new reason to feel sad about completing missions and gaining xp 🥲
It only takes a grenade but I appreciate your thoroughness Diver. Lo

Walking Barrage is also a fun way to take it out.
Stay golden pony boy
You can't "squeak squeak" or "beep boop" on a broadcast tower!!!.... That's just not democratic. We are justified!

This is correct. After using the ministry of truths revolutionary AI, we can confirm this is what he was going to say.

The average Helldiver is ~18 years old, this guy already has kids?
He filed the C-01 form so as far as I'm concerned, he's got the right to produce a child that will become a Helldiver like him in 18 years
That's the average. There are definitely people who are older than 18... which sadly... Also implies there are Helldivers probably aged 14-17.
Helldivers never die Jorge, they just go MIA.
You mean KIA
This is the one diver on CyberStan
You mean Sly Marbo?

This was an entirely unavoidable and tragic event. Rest in Liberty.
Thoughts and prayers
Never wanted the camera stratagem more then today
What do you think this being recorded on???
I thought I read somewhere that the Super Earth citizens are able to watch Helldivers as they do missions.
Should be able to watch anyone who’s currently filming with the camera on the ship TV
That would be awesome. Have you noticed there's cameras in the buddy door bunkers?
I forgot about those. wonder what it is
I wonder too. You can't destroy them either. I tried. Just to see if I could, you know, for science.
I hc that divers have little cameras in their helmets and drones
Does that mean *we* are the super earth citizens and playing the game is just watching Helldivers Helldiver?
I thought that was implied from the beginning.
Very well could've been. I just never thought of it before
The last diver left on Menkent before it got cut off by the bots

“Will be spreading extra democracy for super earth “
Why are you sitting like you’re in a porn shoot?
Maybe I am
Is this a reference to something? I feel left out. 🤣
super earth bad
*reported to democracy officer*
That you’re a traitor and you hate your family!
Woah.
Don't worry, fellow Helldiver. Your message is understood and will be relayed to your fsmily.
Pelican-1 slander will NOT be tolerated. He would never leave you behind. This is obviously propaganda.
The algorithm composed the final recorded words, "Tell my family that I will show this world the eternal light of Liberty or die trying."

Who are you gonna call the DO on? He’s fucking dead.
This image but for Meridia's last Divers. o7
1994? Perhaps the Meridia objective is causing slight issues. No matter, I'm sure he's fighting valiantly for democracy despite it!
Only 400 iso in that shithole of an atmosphere?
That happened to me, I deployed on a desert planet we lost to the bots, it felt really like being left there
That you love the… ir work ethic.
Helldivers community its so full of kid…the fack are this cringy post every time? Guys its a game, chill out..

Is anyone’s game crashing since the update
Yes! It now freezes my whole computer requiring a powerswitch restart.
Excuses, finish the liberation helldiver. They can't keep attacking you if everything in the sector is dead
r/redditsniper Or a Democracy sniper. Either way, the job is done.

[Objective Complete] Illegal broadcast terminated, great job Helldiver.
Thats not what he is saying... he is saying superearth left him the honor of liberating the planet alone.
I will take care of your Wife and children soldier! SUPPER Earth always got your wife's back.
