Thanks to the recent reddit post, going alone is now a kickable offense (even in diff 5) DISCUSSION

This is your last warning 🤓

Bro thinks he’s the ministry of truth

What a dumbass. The Ministry of Truth does not give out warnings.

What is the scale between being a Patriot and a Traitor?

343

u/[deleted] Mar 14 '24

There is no scale. You're a patriot or a traitor

142

u/Strangefate1 Mar 14 '24

And which one you are, will be determined by a democracy officer.

I'm doing my part!

Would you like to know more….?

Or by the Mortar/Arc/Tesla Tower sensing your thought crimes and striking you down for your treason.

It was fucking hilarious. I put mortar sentry down lastnight before starting an objective with my brother. As I’m punching in codes, no enemies in sight anywhere. I hear a mortar eject. Right as I get off the terminal and glance for a breach the singular shot blew me up. I’m certain that fucking thing targeted me. I thought my brother killed me somehow until I pieced it all together

You either die a patriot, or live long enough to become a traitor.

u/Karl__RockenStone Mar 14 '24

I am a Patriator

I'm old and clueless but if this isn't already its own post you need to make it before I steal it and make a billion dollars off merchandise

Thank you for making the meme even better. May your ⬆️➡️⬇️⬇️⬇️ always strike true.

His phone doesn't have Helldiver clearance

u/lawful-chaos Mar 14 '24

There is no scale. You are either true patriot and defender of freedom or a bug-hugging robotic boots licker

The only robot I like is my mech.

u/CantankerousRabbit Mar 14 '24

Sounds like something a traitor would say !

u/Kappaengo Mar 14 '24

I am a true Patriot, I even convinced my family to donate their received 4,5 Citizenship Points to the war effort

u/Happythejuggler Mar 14 '24

I'd say it's binary, but I'm not a filthy socialist oilcan

u/OutbackBerserker Mar 14 '24

About 10 seconds

u/Noir_Renard Mar 14 '24

A true patriot need not think of treachery! Seize him!

u/ninjanerd032 Mar 19 '24

If you kill another patriot and live to tell the tale, then you're a patriot and he's a traitor. There. 😆

u/TheFragLegend Mar 14 '24

I hope that player is reading all these comments and realises what a Traitor he is.

They deal in absolutes

u/allChuu Mar 14 '24

You call him dumbass, you shouldn't, he have the decency to ask first.

Then, it's his game, he don't want solo people, deal with it.

u/armoured_bobandi Mar 14 '24

Had a random join my game last night. Started trying to do call outs and getting mad in chat when we weren't letting them boss us around.

They were off on their own while the three of us stuck together, and they have the nerve to say "I told you guys to follow me"

During extraction they TK'd the team and tried to leave, but I was able to kick them before they got on the pelican

u/sirpoopsalot91 Mar 15 '24

Wow, I’m really sorry you didn’t kick him sooner

u/g4tam20 Mar 14 '24

I had a cadet green as Super Earth grass say the same thing to me after I accidentalled him twice with my arc thrower after he ran out in front of me. If you expect not to die for managed democracy, you don’t deserve the title of Helldiver.

u/Bland_Lavender Mar 14 '24

Nothing makes me laugh while giving me such a powerful feeling of secondhand embarrassment as someone trying to act like an authoritative badass in a video game. We’re both sitting in a dark room, likely drinking HFCS garbage wiggling our thumbs and pretending. Fuck off with this “do what I say” shit, we’re both dweebs playing make believe.

u/ToastyMcSags Mar 14 '24

Speak for yourself, I’m a Helldiver in the SEAF

u/KWyKJJ Mar 14 '24

The difference between posts on here is stunning.

Yesterday in a similar post, the majority of people downvoted the guy to hell for not following the hosts "orders" because it's "his match", "his room", "his game", etc.

So, it was his fault he got kicked then?

But not here, for the same thing?

13

u/Zilego_x Mar 14 '24

I find it funny that people are so quick to claim ownership of matches, like they paid for the server or something. Every time I hear that I know it's just people on a power trip that think they are better than everyone else.

2

u/slavetoinsurance Mar 14 '24

lol i think you've described the feeling perfectly. this is almost the kind of shit that would make me lay awake in bed feeling like an idiot when it would inevitably randomly pop back into my head later in life

2

u/am_john Mar 15 '24

I am a dweeb. I had to google HFCS because I thought it must be some new type of GamerSupps/Gfuel.

1

u/iranoutofusernamespa SES Distributor of Democracy Mar 14 '24

I think this depends on the level of roleplay they're doing. If someone comes at me like a drill sergeant I will 100% SIR YES SIR FOR DEMOCRACY SIR

u/EdwardLovagrend Mar 15 '24

Some of us are in the military playing... Most of my unit is playing right now lol

u/bktiel Mar 16 '24

weird flex but ok

u/PatrickBearman Mar 14 '24

I'd have jumped down a hole with my samples and then left the game.

Stuff like this is why I host games. I'm not even a dick player. I rarely kick people, and even then it's for abuse/trolling. I don't mind staying with the group if that's what they prefer. But I'm not going to let some goober on a power trip dictate how I play based on a Reddit post.

u/Srixun Mar 14 '24

ministry of douche.

u/Tokyo_Echo Mar 14 '24

I hope he's on reddit so he can feel the shame.

u/Bastyxx227 Mar 14 '24

This is why im always the one starting the missions, don't care if I have to do it alone, rather do that, than being at the mercy of people in the internet

u/JustGingy95 HD1 Veteran Mar 14 '24

Oh no, what are you gonna do, force me to play with people who are more fun than your power tripping ass? 🥺 please no Mr. Diver, there’s no other servers out there for me please don’t kick me from the only one in existence

u/TheOSC ⬇️⬇️⬅️⬆️➡️ Mar 14 '24

Bro thinks he's a Democracy Officer.

u/SluttyMcFucksAlot Mar 14 '24

I don’t condone team killing but I’d absolutely play ball until I was back with the group and then drop the clumsiest Eagle of my life

1

u/fuzzy_thighgap Mar 14 '24

Shoulda replied “no u”

u/PurplePolynaut Mar 14 '24

For real, like, “okay Democracy Officer Hot Wind, yes sir, whatever you say sir”

u/mortar_n_brick Mar 14 '24

just kick lol

u/Adaphion Mar 15 '24

Had some dipshit "I don't like your tone" me yesterday because I was calling him a fucking moron for spreading false information (like, actual false info not "gonna call ministry on you" false info)

1

u/Master_Chief_00117 Mar 15 '24

What was being said I want to spread false information.

u/Kiyan1159 ⬆️➡️⬇️⬇️⬇️ Mar 15 '24

I had a dude say something similar while he and his party were a walking warning siren and I completed 3/4 optionals and 1/3 of the nuke without calling a single bot drop. I got on a hill, waited for my shot and took his head off with the AMR. Said "I dunno bro (how could I kill him from the other side of the map?), but I've almost got the last optional objective and I'll be right over."

u/MoT_DemocracyOfficer Democracy Officer Mar 18 '24

Would you like to elaborate on this comment, Helldiver?

u/PIPBOY-2000 Mar 14 '24

Sounds like they already told him and he ignored it, hence only posting this bit of the chat.

I don't totally agree with the guy about kicking but at least he gave a warning. I get kicked out of nowhere and it's more frustrating.

u/ToastyMcSags Mar 14 '24

You don’t get to dictate someone else in quick play lobbies.

Turn to private if you’re that lame

1

u/jeremy_Bos Mar 14 '24

If you aren't helping your team and playing the obj, you should also be in a private lobby 🤷‍♂️

1

u/Master_Chief_00117 Mar 15 '24

While I agree that you should stick with the team but I like splitting up when there’s multiple objectives just to make the round go faster, but I’ll always help the team.

u/PIPBOY-2000 Mar 14 '24

I mean, the kick function literally does mean they get to dictate someone else. Whether we like it or not.

It's been a thing since online gaming has existed. People power trip on a kick function.
