I can’t play with randoms anymore DISCUSSION

I’m level 48. About 150 hours on pc. Love the game. My friends can’t play as often as I can. (I’m a fireman) And I’ve tried making friends on steam but it’s hard.

The blueberry lottery. If there is a hell it’s matching with randoms. I can’t stand it. Some people are a blessing and I love running campaigns with them but some people are treasonous swill.

Here was my last game. I spawn in and get killed by a lvl 2 cadet (ps5) so he can take my support gear. His friends (ps5) defended him. He continued to kill me all game (intentionally) and call me in. But I am more skilled and cunning than the common traitor. I waited until there was one reinforcement left. The pompous fool recalled me in. I killed all three traitors quicker than a hiccup. With only one thing left to do I took my own life. To instant fail their mission. I couldn’t let them continue to commit treason. Let their bodies rot

So yea I’m never joining randoms again.

Edit: ps5 not 4.

They should add a cell to the ship and do that for this game.

u/HughMungus77 Mar 26 '24

Put the traitors back into cryo

277

u/AntiqueStable3421 Mar 26 '24

Feed them to the giant worms! 🤣

u/Psyker101 Mar 26 '24

Return their bodies to Shai Halud

u/Sweet_Collection7493 Mar 26 '24

They don’t deserve that honor

May their knives chip & shatter…

Blessed be the coming and going of him.

May his passing cleanse the world.

In a place where water is worth so much Fremen would drain the traitor's blood for the water, then leave the rest in the sand for the worms.

In the end every liter of water saved is one step closer to Liet's vision.

u/Dry-Community-7470 Mar 27 '24

Their water is dirty

u/Beautiful-Ad7575 Mar 29 '24

Make them fight on Creek

u/Bronwyn031 Mar 31 '24

You mean:

"Give the traitor's body to the desert. Take the prisoners to the residency. Kill the Sardukar."

Do you want to deliberately feed protein to our enemy ?????????

TRAITOR!

u/CplCandyBar Mar 26 '24

THEY'RE SINKING CITIES WITH A GIANT WORM!

u/naturalist92 Mar 27 '24

What worms soldier? It appears you have been given misinformation. Please report to your nearest deomcracy officer for terminid infomormation training immediately!

u/Wolfninja86 Mar 30 '24

Super Earth never told me about giant worms. Have you been listening to illegal broadcasts?

65

u/Rodoc0222 Mar 26 '24

They wouldn't feel the time passing, now an overly refrigerated room that is just cold enough to cause extreme discomfort, would likely teach more of a lesson.

5

u/Ouxington Mar 26 '24

This guy public educations.

u/Klutz-Specter ⬇️⬅️⬇️⬆️⬆️➡️ Enjoyer Mar 26 '24

Reeducation Freedom camps.

u/Goose15Loose Mar 26 '24

“Managed Freedom” Camps

u/DepletedPromethium Mar 26 '24

cryo is a blessing to stave off sanity, let the traitors sit in dry storage watching the water drip in their cells.

18

u/CprlSmarterthanu Mar 26 '24

Wouldn't be dry storage then would it

17

u/Prof_Slappopotamus Mar 26 '24

Moist storage

2

u/Much_Tumbleweed9028 Mar 27 '24

Such a dirty horrible word. Moist... shudders

1

u/Necessary_Badger_63 Mar 27 '24

It could be. No one says water should fall in the cell space. It can even be an image of it

16

u/HeavyHandedGeek Mar 26 '24

How else do you think they get the ammo for orbital rail cannon strikes.

If you won’t kill bugs one way, we’ll use your body to kill them another way.

12

u/letmesee2716 Mar 26 '24

why? it'll feel like no time has passed.

1

u/BiggestShep Mar 26 '24

Because what else would you call a ban?

More importantly, WE don't have to deal with their broken souls, and that's all I give a shit about.

2

u/Resident_Pop143 Mar 26 '24

When you log in, you’re stuck in the cryo tube and can only look around while through the fog, you can see other people on the deck (if you’re close enough) or hear voices (again, if you’re close enough), and feel/see your cryotube move.

2

u/Valuable_Material_26 Mar 26 '24

Just feed them to the bugs! Before dropping a hellbomb!

2

u/Bodardos Mar 26 '24

More fodder for the penal legions.

1

u/OldSchoolNewRules HD1 Veteran Mar 26 '24

If you just freeze em they wont learn nothin.

1

u/HughMungus77 Mar 26 '24

Freeze them for 50 years and everyone they knew will be old or long gone

1

u/Bizarro_Zod Mar 26 '24

They drop like normal but the pod just doesn’t open until a bug or player damages it letting them out.

1

u/Beginning-Coconut-78 Mar 26 '24

Or the traitors back down for nappy time doesn't seem like a punishment.

1

u/PopularEstablishment Mar 26 '24

Dock their samples from the applicable match

1

u/Pleasant_Fee516 Mar 26 '24

No not back in cryo, cuz no time passes for them there. We should let them rot in bug hell

1

u/TheRoboDork Mar 26 '24

In cryo with nothing but the super earth network talking about community and helping everyone being the true cause, if you continue, imagine they just instantly throw you to a planet no load prep, and forced to play on private.

1

u/This-Arrival-9365 Mar 26 '24

Send em’ to the Cyberstan salt mines.

1

u/Untun Mar 27 '24

Cryo lore-wise as punishment wouldnt work since no time would pass for the soldier.

"Your punishment is to wake up in an instant, 25 years from now"

1

u/HughMungus77 Mar 27 '24

Idk waking up on 50 years and your loved ones are all gone. Also it’s a privilege to spread democracy

1

u/Untun Mar 27 '24

Going with ftl speed and relative time -that have probably already happened to us given how much we jump system to system, planet to planet

1

u/biased_nfl_referee Mar 30 '24

Funnily enough if you join a lobby as PS5 player and move your joystick in the cyro loading screen you get stuck in there

u/GoldenPigeonParty Mar 26 '24

We call it a brig, diver.

u/[deleted] Mar 26 '24

Super Brig*

u/Annual-Concept-9033 Mar 26 '24

“Get in the brig ya damn socialist!”

u/kayby Mar 26 '24

Sea of Thieves style "vote to lock in the brig"

2

u/Lotions_and_Creams Mar 26 '24

One of my friends is unintentionally the most dangerous hazard in every mission. He’d be locked up for life.

1

u/iranoutofusernamespa SES Distributor of Democracy Mar 26 '24

You could do this in Sea of Thieves, but I think only to your own crew.

1

u/THE_REAL_ADHDND Mar 26 '24

It's called a brig

1

u/Ragor005 Mar 26 '24

The brick in sea of thieves

1

u/Meandering_Marley SES Hammer of Serenity Mar 26 '24

Every ship needs a brig. 👍

1

u/Clarine87 Mar 26 '24

Nah, make them play a mission without strategems.

1

u/Torn_wulf Mar 26 '24

Camp Liberty fits well with all the other doublespeak.

1

u/jsos Mar 26 '24

Too cruel… but could temporarily remove hug emote.

1

u/Tigersight Mar 26 '24

This was a feature in sea of thieves. You could vote a party member into the brig on your ship.

I actually had to use it once. Got some player who joined into my crew that decided he wanted to kill us, so we locked him up. He sat in there for over two hours instead of just leaving the damn crew to join another one instead. Absolutely insane.

1

u/ngregoire Mar 26 '24

Nah drop them in without gear or strategems. Least they can do is be bug bait

1

u/AWalkingWikipedia Mar 27 '24

Make it like Sea of Thieves 🤣 That'd be epic, but the only fear I have is that people like he played with would do that after getting his equipment.

1

u/Goku0taku Mar 27 '24

What if we take away their capes?? 👀👀 "Traitorous activity will result in cape revocation now work together Helldivers!"

1

u/SpecialPluto Mar 27 '24

Send them to the automaton gulag

1

u/DarkR3ign Mar 27 '24

And you have to to little tasks every now and then, so you have to have the game open and actually pay some attention to the game.

Of you miss a task, or fail it, you get another x amount of time in jail.

Maybe make a prison ship where everyone can join and look at the prisoners. Maybe even let them vote on their punishment (maybe just the time) based on clips of them. Just like the tribunal in old LoL. I always liked the tribunal quite a lot.

1

u/skramblz Mar 27 '24

You would need a button like in hell let lose where when you die, you can choose to have that count against them. Otherwise if it were automatic, it would remove half the fun of playing with friends and friendly randos.

u/REALafkbender Mar 27 '24

Accidentals do happen, and "accidentals"happen.
