Comment on The Helldivers 2 Community needs to get a fucking grip on itself
KatakiY@lemmy.world 4 days agoI’ve not actually run into more than two or three assholes in helldivers. Almost everyone is cool. Idk if it’s because I exclusively play in7-10 difficulty on PC or what.
Lots of funny people, and almost everyone pulls their own weight and when shit goes wrong usually everyone has a laugh.
Also being the host helps cause I just kick the couple of people who are assholes lol

Exact opposite experience as you. I put in a good 25 hours before I dropped it from all the toxicity. If you accidentally hit someone or your laser drone friendly fired they grenade you, harass you on voice chat, and purposefully don’t revive. Always get kicked at the end of the match. I used to play CS:GO back when it wasnt free and I eventually left for the same reason. I feel just any online game where you have the ability to kill your own team devolves to this.

Weird… what difficulty were you on? Maybe it’s harsher for newer players or something. Occasionally people don’t like getting killed but I’ve found as long as I say sorry or correct my mistakes no one cares.
Friendly fire usually makes everyone laugh but I also usually play with one irl friend so that also makes a difference.
The laser drone can be rough until you figure out how it fires and how to avoid friendly fire.
