Comment on Random Screenshots of my Games #67 - HELLDIVERS II

I didn’t know Starship Troopers was based on pro-military propaganda, that’s pretty interesting. And a clean 5,000 friendly damage but only one accidental? Pink likely killed somebody by shooting a damaged hellbomb at some point.

There was a moment in that fight where Pink got killed and dropped a bunch of grenades when he went down (an ability one of your custom uniforms grant you). And we all happened to be grouped a little too close together, so we all got blown up by him. That’s my one death in that mission - a team kill. I wonder if that did enough damage for his score, or if he kept flagging people with his rifle while shooting enemies.
That’s one of the interesting things about this game. Some players have asked the devs for the ability to turn off friendly fire, but they refuse, saying that friendly fire is funny and part of the ridiculousness of the game.

Yeah, I’m a big fan of the friendly fire personally. It causes some hilarious moments. I’ve been in a lot of situations where I get knocked over by a stray rocket or something right as I planned to throw a stratagem, causing me to drop it at my feet and napalm the entire team.

Those moments when you get ragdolled and have to tell the team they got 5 seconds before a 500 goes off are pure hilarity.
