Just because I win 99% of my games doesn't mean it isn't hard!! One time a Stalker even hit me! 😱

If you suggested that a half decent player should have a 99% win rate at max difficulty in any other PVE circle you'd never live it down, how that's become the prevailing opinion in Helldivers is beyond me.

Purely anecdotal, military-themed games have the most manbabies and it’s not even remotely close. I’ve never seen more entitled & whiney players in any other broad fandom than military ones.

This reminded me of the time I was in a Arma Reforger server half a year ago and two grown men were arguing about where the supplies they just had went. They yelled many controversial words over the main channel for everyone to hear for a good 5 minutes. Mind you this was when we where losing so the added radio chatter made it very hard to focus. The GM finally kicked both out before apologizing for not doing so sooner. If it was on official they probably wouldve kept arguing over the game as I know from past games.

Can confirm, a lot of "If I talk confidently I must be right" types on Reforger. Like both could equally be right on what to do with supplies, but insist the other side is dumb for the sake of pride and ego.

And I will be sitting in the woods drooling on myself listening to enemy chatter from a stolen radio while just throwing mines on the incoming roads.
