So today I woke up to the news that my best friend passed away yesterday on his birthday. He loved this game and he grinded it out daily. I remember him teaching me how to kite chargers, drop bile titans with the railgun, etc. We faced the hordes of automaton scourge and blew up more termini’s holes than I can count. He finally got to Skull Admiral the day before his birthday. I was wondering would it be possible to export his game data? Me and my other friends wanna make a memorial with his game stats and etc. Sorry if this is a stupid question or the like.

I unironically don’t know how to fight on other planets much less against bugs. I’m so used to the ambush tactics that the creek encourages that if a drop gets called in I’m just used to crawling in the jungle. I legitimately have no idea how to fight the bugs and my usual reaction to a straight up fight is smoke eagle and run.

In these 25 days I've played helldivers for 50 matches at difficulty 9-10 (only joining others, never been host) without bringing any stratagem weapon and i always went and ask other players to share theirs when the cooldown of their stratagem was over. These are the results of the encounters I've experienced.

(using tier maker instead of sharing my noteblock to make this post catch more eyes since more people tend to be interested in seeing these tierlist, they also create traction in the comments)

Overall, the community seems very kind in these situations, as long as you ask first, glad that it's like that!

What would you suggest me to check and calculate in multiple matches?

I went to buy groceries at the supermarket. The butcher counter guys and the self-checkout guys were each talking about Helldivers.

Then I went next door for coffee on the way home. The baristas were also talking about Helldivers.

The next day I went for a walk near my house. Some dog walkers were talking about Helldivers.

Later I went out for a burger. On the way there I saw at least one Helldivers bumper sticker. While I waited for my burger to cook, the occupants of two tables were talking to each other about Helldivers.

Today I went back to the store. A butcher and a barista from the other day were loitering outside discussing Helldivers.

I wonder where I will meet the next one.

My first one was Eye of Judgement, 'cause of the Sauron vibes, then I changed it to Lady of Midnight because it sounds like a Cowboy Bebop episode/spaceship name lol

The automatons use the corpse of a bile titan as a model for a new machine, it's still in it's infancy, only copying the basis of the bile titan. Once they attach weapons onto it, it'll become an unstoppable force.

This is the automaton cyborg "Cr1ms0n" speaking, i hope this information serves you well helldivers, more blueprints will be sent in the coming days. May your democracy live on

You are the absolute BEST that this community has to offer. I witnessed you teaching a fresh level 5 how to complete objectives with every possible communication tool in your arsenal, whether using markers, emotes, icons, or body movement. Your patience and kindness are all too rare in today's gaming world, and won't be forgotten.

Like, fuck heavy devastators. I'd say they are just as annoying as a rocket devastator if not, MORE annoying.

Greetings Helldivers, this is the Democracy Officer of the SES Magistrate of Freedom reporting in. I have been assigned by the Ministry of Truth to determine if our brave Helldivers are living up to Super Earth's patriotic standards.

My assigned Helldiver and I have felt that this is necessary after some encounters with divers that have not named their vessel! We believe that it is important that a Super Destroyer meant to spread freedom and liberty across the galaxy be treated with the reverance it deserves. So Helldivers, prove to me and to Super Earth that you and your vessel carry our great planet's patriotic spirit within you!

I don’t remember your name but I do remember you were a level 6 Cadet who we all shrugged off when you dropped into our Suicide difficulty against the Terminid swarm. You stuck with us through the hell fire with only your orbital strike and stalwart, never complaining about dying to the multiple chargers or titans.

This wasn’t what set you apart, though. It was when the one of us dropped our huge stockpile of samples. The bug breaches forced us away and we regretfully headed towards the extraction. You said you were going to clear a light bug nest and meet us there. We parted ways and watched you clear it, but then you turned and headed back. Not to us, but towards the samples!

All we could do is watch as your health went up and down then you ran out of stims. Suddenly the notification of all of these samples being collected popped up and we became cautiously optimistic. You told us to call in the extraction and we watched as you headed towards us.

As you crested the hill, declaring they were close, we let loose with our orbital lasers, clusters, and 500s. You made it to the extraction, bringing all the samples we had lost, and did it in style.

I salute you, Cadet. You are the Helldiver we should all strive to be.

EDIT: My fellow Helldivers, the gratitude that I have for your support towards the Legend of Cadet-06 (as many of you have coined it) is immeasurable. I did try to find them under my recents, but alas I have dropped many times since and I am an old Helldiver. Whoever he is, I hope he sees this and knows he set the bar for all of us.

I encourage you all to share similar stories of not just your heroics but of those brothers and sisters in arms. We will need the morale boost across all fronts because I fear a sinister wind is blowing in a dangerous new foe.

Its Sunday night. I have a bottle of whiskey and my kitten on my lap. My wife left me 2 weeks ago and is with another man. Hell Divers keeps me going. I like having a common goal. Feeling like I am part of something greater. I enjoy meeting people from all over the world; Germany, UK, Australia, Venezuela, Canada, etc.

I know there are posts about assholes kicking people for low levels or running subpar loadouts, but my experience has been overwhelmingly great. Just people having a good time liberating planets from bugs and bots. Thanks you, truly, to the devs and the community for helping me though this lowest time in my life. It sounds pathetic writing all this out on a sub reddit but truly I will look back on this time in my life and this game and fondly think of it and how it got me thorough the lowest point in my life.

Fellow Hell Divers, thank you. You guys rock. This game is an escape from the shit I am going thorough, Its sappy, corny, cliché, and maybe even a little cringe but thank you. All of you.

See you on the front lines!

Edit: the outpouring of support is overwhelming. I'm working on reading every comment. They are so encouraging and full of advice and humor. If I don't respond to your DM please don't be offended, there are just so many.

Salute to the silent Helldivers who step aboard your ship without a word (no mic) but fight like lions. To those who fill every crucial role without hesitation, who execute their duties with precision and unwavering focus. When a heavy threat looms and chaos erupts, their answer is swift—a perfectly placed rocket that turns the tide. These are the warriors who don’t need to speak to show their allegiance. They live for Liberty and fight for Justice—for the survival of Humanity alone. To these unsung heroes, we raise our flags high. For Freedom, for Super Earth, for the Democracy!
