He'll divers 2 made me enjoy multiplayer again.

General
And with randos no less. And lately I haven't had to worry about going solo save for the occasional low level mission to finish a simple daily order. Nearly every mission I start my spare spots get filled in before I make the drop. Many are usually higher levels than me but there are a few lower ranks and newbies that I try to assist. The game is still blotchy from time to time but not as often as other games like Gundam Battle Operation 2 and luckily the mission doesn't end if someone gets cut off for some reason.
But I haven't had so much fun in an online shooter since forever. Nearly everyone is helpful though there is the rare troll that team kills everyone. Still have a blast even when I get chunked by friendly artillery.
Whenever I'm not sneaking around in stealth armor and plinking at distant targets with the auto cannon I have been tearing up enemies with the new Exosuit.
That is, if the game allows me to have one...
Discovered Chargers are easier to deal with if you can out smart them.
Sometimes they can even kill themselves because of their weight.
Bile Titans however are still a bane no matter what rank...
Which makes it all the more satisfying when you land that perfect shot.
But the hardest part is being swarmed during an extraction.
Made much harder if you are denied your support drops because you took too long.
But no matter what, you should always cover your teammates, especially if they got lost.
You can check out the full missions in my YouTube channel if you are curious. In the meantime, let's enjoy some music.
Very catchy Helldivers rap.

Somehow he held out for an extraction against a bot swarm solo.

And for shits and giggles, 4 Helldiver.
Hope to play with y'all someday! I try to play every night around midnight.

FOR DEMOCRACY!
I do hate the few times when I join someone's game, help them with the objectives, and just before extraction they kick me out. They get the samples and exp, and I get nothing. Only happened twice though.
Did have to kick out someone after he killed us in the drop ship and was about to evac. Granted we didn't get the samples but he didn't either. Did get the exp though.
Still a fun game and I wish I could talk to others in the game but since I play when everyone in the house is asleep I am grateful for the pings.
Though something I have seen a lot is people throwing down the beacon for the tactical nuke just as everyone is getting on the ship. If everyone is on board, you get a "cinematic" type of exit scene. But if you don't time it right, or someone you THOUGHT was about to get onboard doesn't....
He kept spamming the 'sorry' ping over and over afterwards.
Those rocket bots are a pain. That was until I encountered my first laser tower. Holy crap those things are snipers.
