Monster Hunter figured out this kicking problem generations ago. If you get kicked, the only thing that should happen is that you get seamlessly sent to your own instance of the mission (without being able to quit and rejoin because farming is a thing). It's such a simple, elegant solution.
@victornguyen1175Ай бұрын
Yeah, being kicked when you did like 50% of the objectives by yourself while your teammates are struggling with a swarm sucks. They blame you for not "helping" but they just wasting time on something pointless. Now losing all my progress is, ugh
@Raikos100Ай бұрын
Same thing with the host logging off on the last leg of a campaign while on the destroyer. Missing those medals in the last mission sucks, especially when you all did the first two for almost an hour and a half. Work around currently is to ask the host if he wants to hop off and send us in mission before he quits.

@@Raikos100Well to be fair, that is also apart of the questionable design of the game in the higher difficulties. The reality is that running and despawning between objectives segments is, by far, the best way to win. It just isn't as enjoyable as blasting things. Now that we know how spawning truly works and how the "heat" system works, it highlights how poor the spawn design truly is, when deal with enemies doesn't even lower the heatmap even a tiny bit (also worth noting combat does not increase it).

I joined a mission while the other 3 were finishing the last objective yesterday. Called in my gear, then immediately got killed by a dude with an arc thrower who spun around and shot a charger after it got behind him between the entire team and him. Couldn't get the gear back on respawn because it was overrun, so I mused at how funny it was to lose my gear right at the start because of a dude with an arc thrower doing 360s. Then his teammates started intentionally killing me when there were no enemies around. I was just about to leave, when the host DC'd and I got host as they were 30 seconds from extract landing, so I kicked them after about 4 TKs in a minute. God that felt good.

While not common, I've seen my roommate get killed after picking up one to many samples. Then at the end of the mission, get kicked for successfully dodging around said players attempts to continue to kill him. The host was low level, so our only guess was that he thought samples were exclusive to whomever picked them up and wanted them all for himself.

I had something like that too recently, except it wasn't a low level person. Host killed me and my friend with an auto cannon and then took the samples.

This is the way. This game's community needs to grow towards a more friendly vibe. DRG's motto is "No Dwarf Left Behind" and the community takes that statement to heart. It's a good majority of the time in DRG whether a random will die trying to revive their teammates so all players can get on the drop ship. Where as in HD2 people kick others for using a weapon they don't approve of and would leave your ass on the planet then to to take 1 second to simply call in a reinforcement so all can extract.

I have a guy that I play with that I simply can't let be host any more because he gets too frustrated at minor mistakes and kicks people without warning. He doesn't use his mic in game, he doesn't type in game, he doesn't attempt to communicate at all. He just assumes that any and all mistakes made by "random players" have malicious intent behind them. It should be noted that this particular acquaintance of mine is, by a margin, often the one doing the worst on the team. Edit: To all of the people saying to just "break it off" or "dont play with them" or some other variation of it, that is absolutely horrible advice. Its someone that I occasionally play with and they have this one bad habit, the solution is already in my comment. I don't let them host anymore, and yet they know *why* I don't let them host any more.

@@SinEater292 Use it only against bugs, but it hits like a bus when you do; it pens medium armor, does a ton of damage, and has quite a bit of ammo. The call-in drops pointing towards where you're facing, so if you want a horde behind you dead plan accordingly. It also doesn't rotate 360 quickly, but has a 2-piece base. The top half rotates fast and the bottom half rotates slowly. So once you get it generally on target and you're in the firing arc of the top half you'll be snapping between targets. There's a destroyer module which lets you get that call-in down to 0 seconds, but know if you're playing on higher difficulties, all the garbage conditions will make the call-in time longer. It's really fun on defense, though. Biggest weakness is the slow turn for targets 180 degrees from where the guns are pointing, chargers, and bile titans. Again, don't even bother against bots; you'll just be a super easy target for a devastator.

Because a good player and Helldiver adapts and adjusts their fighting tactics when things don't go as planned. That said I keep the mic nearby in case of accidental mishaps. Like last night when I threw a support stratagem and it stuck to the top of another person's shield causing it to drop on them and kill them. I didn't mean to even throw it yet, let alone do that, I had no idea that could happen. The game literally says friendly fire happens in the tutorial and not to be so uptight about it. Also, a loading screen says "Friendly fire isn't", so doing it on purpose isn't good either. I'm thinking maybe there should be a kick limit. We can only kick people so many times in a day, then that's it for a couple hours or more. Maybe even have it kick them instead when they select it, a self-kick if you would. I wonder how many times they'll kick themselves out before they realize it. Maybe the second time it pops up with a message, "I see you kicked yourself again" "Maybe put it in friends-only mode if you cant control your own attitude that causes you to kick people so much."

It *is* very counterintuitive that dropships and bug breaches are tied to player location as opposed to the objective. It basically goes against what canonically makes sense. That they are here to finish off the colony, not take out helldivers. Seems the colonists would be better off without any helldivers dropping at all and should just let themselves out to take a peaceful stroll to the evac shuttle. I struggle to believe that it was intentionally designed to be played this way. It's more plausible to me that through oversight they gave this mission the full open world sample count, and because there are no bases, optional or subobjectives to distribute them, the samples are forced to spawn in excess at the few Place of interest types that are set up to have a ton of sample spawn points, used to prevent them always being in the exact same location and/or ensuring it's impossible for there to be not enough spawn points for the number of samples that are needed to be on the map.

I know you've addressed this-- it won't solve anything if everyone does it-- but this is why I always host my own lobby. Players frequently don't understand what I'm doing and leave the game (at a point when they'd probably kick me if they could) prematurely. I go in with a loadout I can play solo with so I don't have to rely on anyone. Most players should recognize I'm a good team player because ngl-- I pull off clutch shit all the same to rescue teammates in a pinch by pulling their aggro. I also often call down my support weapon and packs for other players that recently died when it appears their stuff is on cooldown. Lol. Currently I main suicide lvl 7 difficulty. Yesterday some dope played like 25 minutes of the mission and everything was going 100% perfect. I was farming the samples and soloing the outposts on my side of the map. I already had collected the pink super samples. Guy is with the other 2 players on the other side of the map and dies. Most players with a brain would realize "oh, he died 350m that way next to them-- I bet they'd rather get dropped near where they died for obvious reasons." I take it the other two players were bogged down with too much aggro (because you get too much aggro when dumb)-- so there was a slight lag in getting a reinforce out for the dead dude. I don't even think a solid minute passed and the guy ragequit. Then 7 minutes later the rest of the squad and I extracted for a perfect mission and 3 super samples. As with in most games-- I died zero times. People ragequit on me all the time though when I'm doing my thing and it's like "bro, as long as you don't play soooo bad that you ruin everything-- lemme do my thing and stay out of the way, or follow my lead-- and you'll win and get loot-stacked af."

We ended up losing 800 requisitions from so many civillians dying, but there was a personal order for flamethrower kills at the time, so i gave them the benefit of the doubt...until they called an orbital bombardment on extraction with no enemies present. We somehow managed to complete the mission at this point, but i had had enough. So i kicked them after dying to said orbital.

I've personally only had to kick one person mid-mission. We were playing in a group of 3(out of a much larger gaming group that have known each other for almost 20 years); a random joined us and we said no worries. About 10+ minutes in, we were trying to show our new player(group friend) how to keep moving and don't stop to fight swarm; because he kept aggroing everything near us, which caused three swarms to come at us from different angles. We eventually got the swarms to converge into a single 'entity' for easy killing while we kept back-peddling and slowly burning it down with airdrops, turret placements, etc. The random that joined us, however; kept using their flamethrower all around us and basically 'bottling' us with no escape other than walking through flames and burning; which killed our new guy. He was using the ingame voice chat to then talk trash to our new guy "Well guess you'll just have to keep dying to fire if you're gonna get in the way." So we got to the next primary objective; I pulled a shotgun blast from the breaker in his back(one shot him), and we kicked him. If you join someone else's game; you could potentially be joining a pre-made group who already know each other, but overall, don't sit and talk trash to the people you join. You're a guest in another Hosts game, be kind and assist the group; or go host your own game and act a fool as much as you like. That's really the only time we've had too much issue with someone, we've had maybe one or two other instances where someone was just calling airstrikes on us belligerently and not caring who they killed or the samples we lost; and we kicked that person aswell. Just acknowledge that you're part of a team, and don't be the person talking trash, killing team mates or making it harder for the rest of the group do play the game. Host your own game, take your own friends along; and play your way; foolish or otherwise. When you're in someone else's hosted game and they're telling you something through ingame chat/voice; please listen to them to avoid being kicked. To the Sweaty-Smoothbrains decrying us kicking team-killers: You're probably the same kind of insufferrable, insolent jackoffs that get kicked from games and then go cry about how the 'kick' feature shouldn't be in the game, that you 'dindu nuffin', etc. No reasonable person joins a match in progress, is told what we're trying to do and how we're playing the match; and then starts team killing and talking smack to the people they kill with aoe/splash damage. If you don't see a problem with their behavior, you're probably getting kicked regularly and are too much of an asshole to look at yourself and realize YOU are the problem.

I believe the sample density makes sense assuming the developer intention is for you to defend the base and help extraction. The timer is short, the goal is in one central location.

Splitting the party being all upside making the mission easier and granting samples seems unintentional to me.

you can't really control the mortar. when it's down, all you can do is avoid being near enemies. could of just communicated "hey don't use the mortar right now." the game doesn't tell you when you accidentally teamkill people, especially with turrets.
@Scruffy-qi3ikАй бұрын
@@Scruffy-qi3ik It really depends on the situation. If you're fighting bugs most of the time mortars will kill allies because by nature the bugs have lots of means to close their distance. So unless you're confident in the team being able to hold the line and the team wanting to hold a line you really should be expecting a few team kills to occur. Also expecting people to say 'hey don't use the mortar right now' is unrealistic, you would have to pre-empt the other players intention ahead of time on top of whaterver you are doing. The only time this can be realistically done in the beggining of the match when choosing strategems.

@saltysoda93Ай бұрын
I think the solution is to have a penalty of not being able to host for a week or two if you kick too often. this will force hosts to either be judicious in their kicks, or at least it will fix the problem because those people who love to spam the kick function will not be able to host most of the time. Or the penalty could just be disabling the kick function itself for that person. the thing is here, that if someone wanted a private game, they can ASK PEOPLE TO LEAVE in the lobby. the game has voice chat after all. if you ask people to leave and they do, then you can set it to private and not incur the kick penalty.

easy solution: if a host kicks too many people they loose the ability to host an open lobby. also the spot cant be filled by another player for a few minutes. if the person that joined was sabotaging the game the host needs to manually add a report after the kick and if the metrics work out that kick doesnt get counted towards the limit. people that get kicked either get sent to a private instance of the running game or alternatively still receive rewards as if they were still in the game but failed to extract.

Monster Hunter figured out this kicking problem generations ago. If you get kicked, the only thing that should happen is that you get seamlessly sent to your own instance of the mission (without being able to quit and rejoin because farming is a thing). It's such a simple, elegant solution.
Yeah, being kicked when you did like 50% of the objectives by yourself while your teammates are struggling with a swarm sucks. They blame you for not "helping" but they just wasting time on something pointless. Now losing all my progress is, ugh
Same thing with the host logging off on the last leg of a campaign while on the destroyer. Missing those medals in the last mission sucks, especially when you all did the first two for almost an hour and a half. Work around currently is to ask the host if he wants to hop off and send us in mission before he quits.
@@Raikos100Well to be fair, that is also apart of the questionable design of the game in the higher difficulties. The reality is that running and despawning between objectives segments is, by far, the best way to win. It just isn't as enjoyable as blasting things. Now that we know how spawning truly works and how the "heat" system works, it highlights how poor the spawn design truly is, when deal with enemies doesn't even lower the heatmap even a tiny bit (also worth noting combat does not increase it).

I host almost every game I want to play. And when I am the one who join others, I play their rules.
The problem is that there's a bug that makes it so you have to restart your game otherwise no one can join and it usually happens to me after playing one mission. And people usually leave after one mission so unless I want to play solo I have to restart.

Bump
I would also make it harder for people to matchmake into your games if your "host kicking ratio" is high (this penalty would decay over time, so your not stuck never being able to host again). If your being a crappy host and kicking tons of people, you don't get to easily host for a while and have to matchmake yourself. Seems fair to me.
Maybe with specification of how many late-mission/at-extraction kicks they've done too.
One time I got kicked from a destroyer within 30 seconds because I immediately offered the host a scout handshake. I didn't know that it would hit him with the old "too slow", and the instant it happened I could *hear* him opening the menu, and I was laughing the whole time. I have since unequipped the scout handshake lmao
lol I used that emote on a friend. He went silent until we got into the mission. then he blasted me with a shotgun xD
I once offered a hug to a far away player and then denied it when he was almost in range. He replied with the scout handshake, and it was the first time I got to know about it. Perfection.
While not common, I've seen my roommate get killed after picking up one to many samples. Then at the end of the mission, get kicked for successfully dodging around said players attempts to continue to kill him. The host was low level, so our only guess was that he thought samples were exclusive to whomever picked them up and wanted them all for himself.
I had something like that too recently, except it wasn't a low level person. Host killed me and my friend with an auto cannon and then took the samples. He did that twice so eventually I hit him with an arc thrower and then jumped in the Ocean so the samples couldn't be grabbed. No idea why the dude was doing that, but I'm petty enough to sabotage us both.
Best way to fix this is to stop playing on difficulties 1-5 ofc new players are going to do absolutely stupid stuff.

This is the way. This game's community needs to grow towards a more friendly vibe. DRG's motto is "No Dwarf Left Behind" and the community takes that statement to heart. It's a good majority of the time in DRG whether a random will die trying to revive their teammates so all players can get on the drop ship.

I use the HMG emplacement along with recoiless on helldive, people really underestimate how incredible it is. I've saved my team and completed missions many times due to that strategem. Recently while selecting strats before a mission the host backed out and told me if I use HMG he's kicking me. First of all the arrogance for someone to think they get dictate my play style, and second I told him I don't have enough crayons to draw a picture he'd understand; then I was kicked.
I do agree that players shouldn't dictate what strategems others should play, but if they are the host, they can kick if they so choose and I will block them in return.
I haven't purchased that one yet but was curious never seen anyone use it.
@@SinEater292 Gotta know where and where not to place it, but perching it up high is ideal. It mows down everything short of chargers and titans. However, recoiless along with stun grenades which I can carry 7 keeps the heavies under control while wiping out bug breaches as they appear.
@@SinEater292 Use it only against bugs, but it hits like a bus when you do; it pens medium armor, does a ton of damage, and has quite a bit of ammo. The call-in drops pointing towards where you're facing, so if you want a horde behind you dead plan accordingly. It also doesn't rotate 360 quickly, but has a 2-piece base. The top half rotates fast and the bottom half rotates slowly. So once you get it generally on target and you're in the firing arc of the top half you'll be snapping between targets. There's a destroyer module which lets you get that call-in down to 0 seconds, but know if you're playing on higher difficulties, all the garbage conditions will make the call-in time longer. It's really fun on defense, though. Biggest weakness is the slow turn for targets 180 degrees from where the guns are pointing, chargers, and bile titans. Again, don't even bother against bots; you'll just be a super easy target for a devastator.

I was in a group of 3 players with the handle 'SLIME' at the front. It was an exterminate bugs mission at night, so it's dark, and the map is small with several high rocks encircling the middle. After completing the objective, i was being reinforced, and the infamous 'steering lock' pulls my hellpod hard left to avoid landing on one of the high rock and accidentally landed on one of the player's mech which got blown up. He got so annoyed in voice chat and asked his teammate to kick me out for landing on him 'on purpose'. That experience taught me to avoid random group encounters with weird player handle..
Yeah, I discovered like a decade ago that those weird "clan" types with prefixes in their names are best avoided. They're always either really bad, griefers, or have 0 patience for anything not going exactly as they desire.
@@Capnsensible80 "or have 0 patience for anything not going exactly as they desire." LOL so again, they are bad players. Because a good player and Helldiver adapts and adjusts their fighting tactics when things don't go as planned. That said I keep the mic nearby in case of accidental mishaps. Like last night when I threw a support stratagem and it stuck to the top of another person's shield causing it to drop on them and kill them. I didn't mean to even throw it yet, let alone do that, I had no idea that could happen. The game literally says friendly fire happens in the tutorial and not to be so uptight about it. Also, a loading screen says "Friendly fire isn't", so doing it on purpose isn't good either. I'm thinking maybe there should be a kick limit. We can only kick people so many times in a day, then that's it for a couple hours or more. Maybe even have it kick them instead when they select it, a self-kick if you would. I wonder how many times they'll kick themselves out before they realize it. Maybe the second time it pops up with a message, "I see you kicked yourself again" "Maybe put it in friends-only mode if you cant control your own attitude that causes you to kick people so much."
Landing on a mech is the absolute best reason to kick someone, and even if you say it's an accident how are they supposed to know that? Lul.
@@Al0neStillAlive How are you supposed to know? Easy through deductive reasoning. If it happens once and they say it's an accident and it doesn't happen again, then it very likely was. If it continues to happen then it's likely not or they are really bad at controlling friendly fire. In which case, determine if they are trolling, and if they are then kicking is fine. Doesn't take much thought and assuming the worst from one incident makes the person making assumptions the bad one since they're outlook must be a negative one to assume the worst over a single incident.
@@SeohnAranys Idiot randos you meat once aren't worth the consideration. And you only get two uses of the mech 10 minutes apart, EZ kick.
what is the loadout youre using? Railgun jetpack and whats your primary ?
awesome vid, butz can i ask what your primary weapon is? is it the sickle?
I had a mission where I got kicked because my teamates kept staying in one location getting swarmed and dying then proceed to try to get their gear back wasting all our reinforcements then getting mad at me because I decided to go for objectives instead of being farmed over and over again.
It’s like oh geez I don’t know oh man
this should be top comment
@@doomguy8215 exactly they don’t understand the game. And most of the time it’s like everything’s done I got the purples for you. It’s time to go. Or at least that should be the mentality lol I feel you brother.
yeah, you should help them get the gear then? playing without your support weapon is really boring, so for that reason alone i'll go out of my way to help people get theirs back - it's not like you don't have spare time in most missions. it'll generally make the mission go a whole lot smoother if everyone has their support gear - it doesn't even happen that often anyway, just treat it as a side objective
@@doomguy8215 my gripe right now is that they should have added another ring around the map to bring back the bots, say we never went out that far. Them coming back from outside our travel reach doesn’t really make sense because we have warp drive
Been kicked for friendly fire. A guy was surrounded by 3 Hulks, lying on ground rolling around while two flame hulks was about to toast him. I managed to kill all of the hulks from behind with arc thrower. But sadly one arc hit the guy killing him. He was already dead in any case. But I got kicked anyway. 🤬
Kicking for friendly fire is such a spineless move. I would gladly take the fate of baiting out three Hulks, and I wouldn't mind doing a drop pod kill on my spawn.
@@tianxiu especially with the Arc Thrower I started using it and picking targets that won't link to your squad is not exactly easy
@@deman182 Yeah, I am an Arc main, and I tried my best not to kill my teams with it. Most people are smart enough to know not to stand in front of the Arc guy. Accidents still happen, well, for the greater good of Super Earth!
@@tianxiu Yup. Same thing goes for the guard dogs. They'll go for the closest target, even if you or your teammate is standing between it and the target. We've learned to keep them on the wings.
Is it asking too much for them to tweak the Arc thrower to not arc into teammates. I feel like that's the way I get friendly fired the most, which is saying a lot given how few people use it
Im assuming the sample desnity is likely because its a smaller map with a shorter time limit, and it needs to have similar sample count compared to larger, longer missions.
It *is* very counterintuitive that dropships and bug breaches are tied to player location as opposed to the objective. It basically goes against what canonically makes sense. That they are here to finish off the colony, not take out helldivers. Seems the colonists would be better off without any helldivers dropping at all and should just let themselves out to take a peaceful stroll to the evac shuttle. I struggle to believe that it was intentionally designed to be played this way. It's more plausible to me that through oversight they gave this mission the full open world sample count, and because there are no bases, optional or subobjectives to distribute them, the samples are forced to spawn in excess at the few Place of interest types that are set up to have a ton of sample spawn points, used to prevent them always being in the exact same location and/or ensuring it's impossible for there to be not enough spawn points for the number of samples that are needed to be on the map.
Yeah, unfortunately with a high CCU count comes a larger concentration of room temp iQ individuals.
lmao i love this "room temp IQ people" quote, imma steal it if you dont mind.
This is the right answer. It's that simple.
I think a lot of people getting kicked because of the friend issue. Friends crossplay trying to join each other. Once it's fully fixed I think the pregame kicks will be much better. If you google work around for friend issue, first thing says wait and kick until friend joins.
i keep getting disconected like me and my friends will just leave each others matches but will still be in the same level we were in but now playing solo why does this keep hapening?
I had a guy join my lobby, die, then complain when he died to friendly fire after running in front of someone's gun. He then killed the guy who accidentally shot him. He later complained about how the other players were playing when extraction was 60 seconds away. I kicked him and extracted with no issues and everyone continued to have fun for the next hour or two. Tldr; helldiver berated his brothers and he was served a dose of liber-tea.
1 dude freaked out on me because i joined super late then he kicked me i was like dude why you drop the sos 😂
Sometimes we get new join just when the shuttle land, and we cheer for the lucky bastard for free shits lol.
@@tianxiui always thank them for their hard work!
How do you know that's why?
@@YuckFou0x0FFFF they will very gladly tell you with a bunch of colorful language
@@tianxiu Was going to say, you don't lose anything if someone joins last minute, and it's not like they knew the match was over. I've had someone say something once to me. I'm now looking forward to the next time someone says it in an insulting way because my comeback will be along the lines, "Do you think I knew that before joining? Where on the mission map before launching does it say the team is about to end the mission? What, do you think I can see the future? Do you think I only joined this match because I didn't want to have fun fighting the enemies and that I only enjoy running onto the extraction ship at the end?
The most often reason I get kicked is the same reason I kick other people. I forgot to change the private friend back from open after I brought my friends in due to the wonky friend system.
Same. I wish they gave options for reasons for the kick. This being “host wants to play w friends only/public lobby enabled error”
@@oscarortiz1529 you could also just. y'know... say "sorry mate was supposed to be friends only." the game has both a vc and a tc, i don't think there's much reason not to just explain that first and let them leave or kick them after they could read or hear it.
@@Scruffy-qi3ik Randoms aren't real people. no need to take my time explaining myself to them.
@@zamba136 doesn’t that make you not a person to them too? Also with that reasoning, you are kind of proving the power tripping host with an ego point towards people being kicked. It’s not even you “explaining yourself” it’s just saying why. Ain’t that hard to be a decent person.
Yeah, I just wish people would communicate that almost everyone has a microphone/headset The PS5 controller is literally a microphone. What I get super upset about though, is getting kicked mid match for no reason like I remember I got kicked because I was using the anti-material rifle against automatons was only taken out hulks and devastator before they could get to my teammates
One of DRG's strongest points is its community. I think I've already gotten kicked more in Helldivers than I ever have in DRG, and I got the game a few days ago. (And have been playing DRG since who knows when.)
Part of the issue is that Helldiver missions have high-stake missions, high punishments, and friendly fire. Perfect recipes for people to kick you.
@@ironboy89 Deep dives work much the same as an operation in Helldivers, and friendly fire is very much a present concern in DRG. Plus, if you get bad enough RNG, missions in Deep Rock can make Helldivers look like a pleasant vacation. Yet still, the people are nice :3
@@minimalgrammar1276 One of the differences with Helldivers and DRG is that DGR disables during kicking drop pod depatures. Meanwhile Helldivers Extractions get super toxic because people can shoot in the ship, kick before getting into the ship, and end the mission, etc.
@@ironboy89 To be honest, anyone who goes into the menu needed in order to kick someone during a DRG evac in anything above hazard three is either stupid as Hell or has balls of steel. Or maybe both.
Sometimes the game randomly crashes and someone joins in your place (in a 2-3 man friend + pubs), so the host kicks so you don't have to wait the whole match
People who got kicked for nOt UsInG mEtA probably were using explosive mortars...etc. on TCS.
Can almost guarantee that almost none of them were actually kicked for "Not using meta" This is just the conclusion they came to in order to feel better about getting kicked. I doubt the hosts even take the time to communicate anything before simply booting them during a mission. There isn't enough time to do much else before getting swarmed by a patrol.

what's TCS in this context?
@@kaden-sd6vb Terminid Control System. It's the mission where you have those big battery towers and you need to defend them so you can turn on the main Terminid Control System tower. Shit teammates on that mission is particularly annoying because they can actively damage the battery towers and reset your progress with stratagems, grenades, gunfire, etc.
Gotta get that sweet reddit karma somehow
I got kicked one time because my hellpad wasn't landing correctly
that really sucks my man, happened to me and the people I was with just waited the 20 seconds no problem, like how is it hard for someone to wait for a couple of seconds and instead kick you??
6:40 through extensive testing by several people on reddit (for which there is an entire thread for) they found that your team doesn't share "heat" if you are too far away. if you are about 75 meters away from anyone, you have your own "heat" level and can summon bug breaches separately from the group. It doesn't reduce the number of bugs they deal with, and if anything, adds more bugs to the map in total
I had a mission recently where I gathered all POI items, found tons of samples; including supers, got to extraction, then was kicked. Days it gets bad enough I wont play unless I'm host.
I kicked a dude for the first time yesterday, he was ignoring the team, running off on his own, and when I started asking for help to do a bunker, he instead ran off and called extraction. I just don't want someone like that in my games.
Exactly. I feel this 100% you could be helping people. They do not care. Lol it’s sad…
I agree that calling for extraction when the other players are still searching the map is a bad move, but I don't see an issue with running off solo as long as they're getting samples, side objectives, and minimizing their own deaths.
@@Keyce0013 I usually don't care, but there ARE two main issues with going off solo. One, you do not contribute to the teams effort when you are not nearby, and two, you cause extra patrols to spawn.
@@Keyce0013 It's totally fine unless you get in. Then you're gone.
Same thing happened yesterday for me spoiled my mood😂
I get kicked because my level is too high. This is an assumption since these lobbies are full of 20-30ish level players and when I get in, I immediately hear the ‘hellpod launch suspended’ line and know I’m about to get kicked before I can even get to the hellpod.
I have the same assumption honestly because it happens after I land in an already going mission and people just kick me less than a minute in.
No way Levilism or Rankism?
@@OhDoughit’s good to know that I’m not the only one experiencing this. Though I really wish the devs could come up with a solution to this. I like matchmaking and helping random lobbies but when moments like this happens, it really sucks.
@@omarmejia7609 Honestly, I like to believe that they kicked me so that they could experience the game without getting help from higher leveled players and want to learn how to play the game themselves.
@@gabedolf5641 Or they assume you won't play for exp and req. I got in a lobby with 3 lvl 50 (I'm lvl 25) and when I keep looting samps and opening crates I got kicked.
I know you've addressed this-- it won't solve anything if everyone does it-- but this is why I always host my own lobby. Players frequently don't understand what I'm doing and leave the game (at a point when they'd probably kick me if they could) prematurely. I go in with a loadout I can play solo with so I don't have to rely on anyone. Most players should recognize I'm a good team player because ngl-- I pull off clutch shit all the same to rescue teammates in a pinch by pulling their aggro. I also often call down my support weapon and packs for other players that recently died when it appears their stuff is on cooldown. Lol. Currently I main suicide lvl 7 difficulty. Yesterday some dope played like 25 minutes of the mission and everything was going 100% perfect. I was farming the samples and soloing the outposts on my side of the map. I already had collected the pink super samples. Guy is with the other 2 players on the other side of the map and dies. Most players with a brain would realize "oh, he died 350m that way next to them-- I bet they'd rather get dropped near where they died for obvious reasons." I take it the other two players were bogged down with too much aggro (because you get too much aggro when dumb)-- so there was a slight lag in getting a reinforce out for the dead dude. I don't even think a solid minute passed and the guy ragequit. Then 7 minutes later the rest of the squad and I extracted for a perfect mission and 3 super samples. As with in most games-- I died zero times. People ragequit on me all the time though when I'm doing my thing and it's like "bro, as long as you don't play soooo bad that you ruin everything-- lemme do my thing and stay out of the way, or follow my lead-- and you'll win and get loot-stacked af." Smh 😂 Fckin hweirdos
I would like for frequent kickers to be deprioritized in the matchmaking queues or if a non-friend is kicked from a match within x seconds of joining then the lobby goes into the lower priority queue.
Or just ban frequent kickers from hosting a game for a period of time lol. So nobody has the displeasure of joining one of their games and wasting their time lol.
I've been kicked at extraction after carrying people so many times ive lost count, i dont even pick up samples for randoms anymore, i just do main and side objectives and then call the boat after i tell them I'll wait at extraction
I always leave the samples if a team mate is directly responsible for my death
It's funny because the host will lose those samples when kicking the player carrying them.
You emphasize an H in W words, *proceeds to kick you*
considering the H comes after the W, but you're pronouncing it first, yeah, that deserves it.
I've kicked probably a grand total of 4 people. 1- guy landed on us with his hell pod three times in a row. 2- every time the guy spawned he would kill himself with a grenade. 3,4 - one of my friends d/c'd and a person joined before they could reconnect
When the breaker/rail gun was the "go to", i told that i had the wrong gear and kicked many times. It was really a thing. Since the balance pass, I've been kicked once.
The one and only reason I've kicked someone from my game is because they called in extraction a mile away while myself and another player were running around clearing hives and doing side missions
It's really annoying when they do that
pelican would wait for you and be ready for extraction when you reach extraction point (considering he did not intended to board early). It's probably not a good reason for a kick.
@@Pejatube i was about to say this , its actually a pro strat to prep pelican .
Mans was fighting for his life to have the pelican ready for yall and you just kicked him like that!!!! REPORTED TO YOUR HIGHER UP!
@@Pejatube If you don't board it within a certain amount of time the timer starts automatically if a player is in range. If nobody boards it it just aborts until you call it again, rendering the initial call in pointless. Nobody is calling in extraction with 20 plus minutes left with the intention of waiting on other people who are "clearing" missions. I will continue kicking people for this lol
If people would say what the were doing or the host said what they wanted then this would be less of an issue. A little text fill box for why the person was kicked would give some better context.
or... and just hear me out here... you just tell them why they have to kick you in the first place? we have voice chat and text chat in this game, there is literally no reason not to explain yourself.
@@chloekaftan How would I (person about to be kick) know that I am being going to get kick if the host does not initate the topic?
I’d love a way to include text for why they got kicked when it happens and they get that “you were kicked” message. I kick people a lot in my games for reasons I think are good. Letting them know why I’m kicking them would help them be better teammates in the future.
Tips - when you reinforce, throw them towards their supply’s, not at a random spot - if you split up, and you die, dont instant reinforce, but let the helldiver that you split up with reinforce you - when you have teammates using the same weapons that need a reload, link up with them so they shoot faster and take turns with that
I think if you ran off solo, you should at least explain what you're doing to the rest of the team, don't expect them to read your mind and know what you're doing without you telling them.
Too many silent people for sure. I’ve been kicked for talking though too…
This is why they need to add back text to speech, when you are doing something you rarely have time to look down at the chat box.
Simple audio cue for chat messages would be enough really. Game lacks some of most obvious QOL features almost like devs never played videogame before.
i had a more sinister kick in the past before, the team was super helpful and collect everything. then they kicked me right before i reach the extraction shuttle.
I felt bad for kicking a guy that spent most of the mission doing things that directly hampered the mission. Civillian evacuation, 15 minutes. The guy brought a flamethrower and used it almost exclusively in the path of the civillians, and their other stratagems were equally bad for friendly fire. We ended up losing 800 requisitions from so many civillians dying, but there was a personal order for flamethrower kills at the time, so i gave them the benefit of the doubt...until they called an orbital bombardment on extraction with no enemies present. We somehow managed to complete the mission at this point, but i had had enough. So i kicked them after dying to said orbital.
Well done.
I now understand why people abandon super earth. It's because your allies is more of a threat then the actual monsters.
Played a match today where I joined on an S.O.S. beacon. I landed, and right as I exited the pod, I got tk'd by a friendly sentry and got kicked. Real fun
Yea game needs a major overhaul so that never happens to you again. Have you recovered???
sometimes it'll be like that. The worse feeling is that you played everything perfectly with no deaths and then board the helicopter, then someone shoots you dead while you sit there helplessly and it marks you as failed to evacuate.
@@TheIvanMilky Think about how that made him feeeeel 😢
@@GquainThose types of people are literally the worst
95% of the players I kick is in the first seconds as I didn't intend the match to be matchmaking accessible. The in game friend system is trash and only works sometimes for some players. I have a frequent friend I can't add, whether I or him sends the request the other can't accept (and that is just one of many examples). They have to properly fix the friend system, or add an open but not for matchmaking setting. And yes, a vote kick system would be great, I almost never join randoms for the amount of BS moments. Allowing me to complete the mission on my own would also be good
Yep, this is the issue the vast majority of the time.
Vote kick would not be good because 2 griefers can take over the whole game
@@bigpuppyshoes5033 yea, but it will be a relevant mitigation. I was thinking about requiring majority, so 2 votes would only work in a 3 player squad. The main point is being able to continue the mission after being kicked
I often toss the SOS stratosphere by accident and I'd like to remove it from my options even as I despice that damn thing the only time I actually got anything out of it the other player started taking my gear that I was calling down for myself
I agree on around the part of the dingus that kept going in the automoton evac mission.
I mean, the only person I'm kicking is myself since each patch makes the game more unstable.
And less fun
Would love to play the 1st pre nerf patch again. I remember it being way more fun.

The one and only time I've kicked someone intentionally was when they grabbed by autocannon and after I asked politely for it back (as I still had the backpack), they shot my friend with it cause they were too stupid to know which one of us was speaking to him. Every other time was just to make room for friends or I was done for the night. And yes, I know you can set your matchmaking preference to friends only but, since the social tab is still broken, I can't play with some people who are my friends but simply not on my friends list.

I've personally only had to kick one person mid-mission. We were playing in a group of 3(out of a much larger gaming group that have known each other for almost 20 years); a random joined us and we said no worries. About 10+ minutes in, we were trying to show our new player(group friend) how to keep moving and don't stop to fight swarm; because he kept aggroing everything near us, which caused three swarms to come at us from different angles. We eventually got the swarms to converge into a single 'entity' for easy killing while we kept back-peddling and slowly burning it down with airdrops, turret placements, etc. The random that joined us, however; kept using their flamethrower all around us and basically 'bottling' us with no escape other than walking through flames and burning; which killed our new guy. He was using the ingame voice chat to then talk trash to our new guy "Well guess you'll just have to keep dying to fire if you're gonna get in the way." So we got to the next primary objective; I pulled a shotgun blast from the breaker in his back(one shot him), and we kicked him. If you join someone else's game; you could potentially be joining a pre-made group who already know each other, but overall, don't sit and talk trash to the people you join. You're a guest in another Hosts game, be kind and assist the group; or go host your own game and act a fool as much as you like. That's really the only time we've had too much issue with someone, we've had maybe one or two other instances where someone was just calling airstrikes on us belligerently and not caring who they killed or the samples we lost; and we kicked that person aswell. Just acknowledge that you're part of a team, and don't be the person talking trash, killing team mates or making it harder for the rest of the group do play the game. Host your own game, take your own friends along; and play your way; foolish or otherwise. When you're in someone else's hosted game and they're telling you something through ingame chat/voice; please listen to them to avoid being kicked. To the Sweaty-Smoothbrains decrying us kicking team-killers: You're probably the same kind of insufferrable, insolent jackoffs that get kicked from games and then go cry about how the 'kick' feature shouldn't be in the game, that you 'dindu nuffin', etc. No reasonable person joins a match in progress, is told what we're trying to do and how we're playing the match; and then starts team killing and talking smack to the people they kill with aoe/splash damage. If you don't see a problem with their behavior, you're probably getting kicked regularly and are too much of an asshole to look at yourself and realize YOU are the problem.
I’ve never once had a host that kicked me communicate a problem through voice chat or text chat. Most hosts I never know what I did to offend them, it becomes a guessing game each time I get kicked. Was I doing too many side objectives? Was I not sticking close enough to the team? Did I not prioritize samples enough? I never know the reason I get kicked. I’ve noticed that skilled players (skull admirals) have never kicked me once because they have the decency to explain what they’re trying to do in the mission, either through chat or pinging objective.
I've kicked someone for not picking up samples, we failed the mission too.
Friends only option is good)
@@crackededge9351 we always talk to the random players and post in chat our intentions. Full map clear, stay close, don't pull patrols, always grab samples, becareful with AOE, etc. We always issue warnings before we kick, but when the guests start talking trash, or dont apologize for teamkills(or are blatantly TKing and then blaming those who died), they get kicked. And yes, we primarily play private games, but as of late the friendlist hasnt been adding new friends, so we've had to open the game, get friends in, and sometimes the host forgets to close the lobby.
you people sound like the kind of people who kick just because a random is doing a better job than you are. exactly like ohdough had in his own mission in the video, a solo random getting all the samples and everyone else in the team (who are friends) think hes throwing the match, when in reality hes carrying the match by pulling scripted mobs away and had 4/5 of all the samples in the entire map. then y'all kick him because you think hes throwing, and instead you yourselves throw the match because not only did you lose all the samples by kicking him, you also lost the mission because you cant handle a single hive despite having 3 people there. realistically a 2 man can handle level 9 hives just fine if they know what they're doing. if you need 4 people just to clear a single hive, then perhaps you should go back down to level 4 - 6 missions.
I have never been kicked once in mission. I don't like hosting in this game, I just like following the host and doing whatever they seem to be doing.
How about when you kick someone at evac after you’ve done the entire mission with them? Including saving the entire team multiple times and taking care of objectives? Happened 4 days straight.
Edit: Adding vote kick and host kick optional system that lets you allow to choose either host or vote kick as an option and join random (quick play) lobby with same system.
I got kicked the other day for calling the shuttle down lol. Two of us were holding down the extract, the other two were looking for the samples. Morons didn't realize that you can call the shuttle but you don't have to get on until the mission timer is up.
Yeah, I got kicked for that, too, and I even set the shuttle to hover. Browse the comment section above, and you will see a whole bunch of "dude call ship while us doing sample" kicks. Those morons.
All I can say is that often than not people will actually not wait and board without you. So if you as a host had 8/10 boarding without you than you just get piss** off when someone calls the shuttle period. They are more clueless and bad players than those here with common sadly.
Did you comminate with them so they know?
Never call extraction without everyone nearby. If I'm ready, I'll wait near the extraction and go prone, watching the map for them to them to be within like 200m away, because calling extraction calls in waves of enemies to the extraction point. Maybe you can handle them, but without communication it creates a stressful moment knowing someone can accidentally jump in the pelican and you're a few minutes away, losing all your samples.
@@TruFalco gonna have to disagree with you there bud, because the pelican can hover indefinitely and clear the drop zone as long as there's time in the mission. It's way better to have the pelican hovering on standby raining down hellfire, and be able to hop right in when you return with the samples, rather than having to wait several minutes for it to arrive while under heavy fire.
I believe the sample density makes sense assuming the developer intention is for you to defend the base and help extraction. The timer is short, the goal is in one central location. But if you're waiting for the escort to finish you have the high risk high reward option to leave the mission area to collect samples. There isn't 4 buttons, so you'll naturally have free hands. Splitting the party being all upside making the mission easier and granting samples seems unintentional to me.
im curious, do you lose the samples you held?
2:51 I bet bro was using artillery mortar on a high level mission getting TK after TK then still goes online to cry he got kicked.
you can't really control the mortar. when it's down, all you can do is avoid being near enemies. could of just communicated "hey don't use the mortar right now." the game doesn't tell you when you accidentally teamkill people, especially with turrets.
@@Scruffy-qi3ik It really depends on the situation. If you're fighting bugs most of the time mortars will kill allies because by nature the bugs have lots of means to close their distance. So unless you're confident in the team being able to hold the line and the team wanting to hold a line you really should be expecting a few team kills to occur. Also expecting people to say 'hey don't use the mortar right now' is unrealistic, you would have to pre-empt the other players intention ahead of time on top of whaterver you are doing. The only time this can be realistically done in the beggining of the match when choosing strategems.
@@theresnothinghere1745 I think the pro outweight the con beacuse motar sentry is the only strategem with indirect fire to supress enemy. All the team need is communitaction and situational awerness.
@@magnificent9784Mortar sentry is not the only strategem with that. For example, the EMS mortar also does that and is my preffered option against Terminids. It won't kill teammates while also being more effective at suppressing the enemy as it doesn't need to kill them to stop their movement. " All the team need is communitaction and situational awareness" It's mostly communication but that is hard to guarantee when playing with randoms.
Sound like a SKEEL issue
IMO if you are gonna join a random your job should be to help the host progress THEIR mission. Running off dying 4 or 5 time or hogging all the resupply's to your self is not fair for the host. if you care that much about getting kick for doing 100% of a mission host your own lobby or join a friend simple as.
this is a miserable take lmao
What an ahole. Youre not elected emperorer because you selected the mission and they hit quickplay.
@@dantevallieres794 I would love you to elaborate on how respecting a host intentions aiming for team work over 4 randoms playing solo doing their own thing miserable to me I find it kinda sad running around solo and watching ppl do their own thing on someone else SOS call or maybe I value try to be social RP as John helldiver helping out the cadets.
@@domh3428 @domh3428 bootlicker lmao. if someone runs off on their own its in an effort to finish the objectives, not to sabotage your mission. if a random joins my mission and dies 5 times boo hoo its a game mistakes happen if I hated human error enough to get upset at misplays Id close my lobby. If im hosting a lobby I dont expect 3 subordinates to join and listen to my whims. if they wanna bring a horrible loadout and play badly its whatever I can solo anyway. if you can't play with bad teammates id suggest trying lower difficulties
it is a valid thought though. people do the objectives quickly and dont bother with much else so they can get XP quicker. if they relay that to a random player and the rando doesnt care, then oh well. host would do their own thing anyway or give the boot. or if the rando agrees, even better
I think the solution is to have a penalty of not being able to host for a week or two if you kick too often. this will force hosts to either be judicious in their kicks, or at least it will fix the problem because those people who love to spam the kick function will not be able to host most of the time. Or the penalty could just be disabling the kick function itself for that person. the thing is here, that if someone wanted a private game, they can ASK PEOPLE TO LEAVE in the lobby. the game has voice chat after all. if you ask people to leave and they do, then you can set it to private and not incur the kick penalty.
I usually get kicked because people dont set friends only
I think that at 10 minutes remaining OR the main objective is done, you should not be able to kick people UNLESS someone gets teamkilled and then a popup appears that asks "do you think that was intentional?" like how halo lets you punish people for TKing, and only AFTER someone on your team says "this person teamkilled me intentionally" then you can kick someone within the last half of the mission.
If that’s implemented I guarantee the trolls will roll up and destroy you for the first 10 minutes.
@@curseofsasuke Not to mention how the game has so many more important problems to fix before any of this dogshit(Crossplay bug?). Randos kicking people is the biggest non-issue that is overblown by reddit right now.
This could be exploited wby having the kicker run into the line of fire intentionally and passing it as them getting TK'ed by the one they want to kick.
@@SuperCatacata so you think traitorous helldivers should not be our highest concern? are you saying you are one of these people? are you saying you are an automaton sympathizer? so are you saying you are willing to commit high treason against the citizens of super earth soldier!? (parody of "Tanya: The Isekaied Demon" by Cj Dachamp, dont take me too seriously)
its equivalent to killing a gta pedestrian. completely random and unprovoked
honestly i only kick when someone starts genuinely becoming a hindrance; like holding the ssssd but not inserting it in the drive, which for some reason is insanely common
please tell me the samples are lost when you get kicked and arent just dropped
a big reason I kick anyone is calling extraction too damn early. or when I very specifically tell them to not finish the Final objective otherwise Patrol Spawn timer halves
Had a guy kick everybody right before extraction. Dude needed a carry too.
It is what it is I don't read too deep into it, at this point I flat out ignore samples unless I have low level people with me and I'm just helping them out. I prefer to host games and just do the mission because when it's all said and done that's the one thing that doesn't change in endgame.
I only do random kicks if someone in my squad accidently leaves Public on when were tryin to invite our IRL friends to the group. I tell them to switch back to Friends Only, and make sure to do it before a mission set begins.
what a coincidence, that guy joined me stood in front of my autocannon sentry and died to it then killed me and destroyed all of my sentries so i kicked him
they seemed a tad bit goofenshmirtz like
i kicked someone today because he got inside the extraction first while we all had the samples and were far away from the ship lol
So he was just at the extraction and you kicked "lol"? Maybe he was dropping samples in order not to lose them and planned to join you but you wouldnt know because you didnt communicate and were power tripping.
reading does help alot. he said "got inside extraction" meaning he was in the ship dummy@@Pejatube
no he did not wait for anyone and got inside the ship first without any samples@@Pejatube
So you kick people at extraction. You're still the scumbag
@@Pejatube you don't have the best reading comprehension huh?
Me and my boys, we take 4 hmg emplacements 8 mortars, 4 antitank weapons of choice and the bugs stand no chance. We only use 2 HMGs turrets at a time. They shred everything exept chargers/titans, but these are focused asap. Not one bug enters the yard lol
I joined a game on extraction a couple of times and got kicked, I understood why though and it actually gave me a bit of a chuckle.
Let me share a little story. There was once a helldiver who used Arc thrower at the beginning of the game. He electrocuted and seriously injured two teammates in succession, and then kicked them out after laughing at them in the chat room. Has anyone experienced this ( •̀ ω •́ )?
What's the point of this stupid story
Your fault for getting in the way of his arc lol is the best support weapon for terminids anyways soo
@@rockersons4853 did you miss the "beginning of the game" and "laughed at them in the chat room" bits? that kind of majorly implies he purposefully aimed at them at the very start of a mission just to kill and kick them.
truth be told, Arc Thrower is very OP and meta. Dying to a Meta weapon is considered a prestige by many. If you see someone with an Arc Thrower, consider your life to be expendable infront of its sheer power and versatility. Never go infront of an Arc Thrower and try to flank instead. Maybe he laughed at them because they did not possess a meta weapon like he does.
@@Scruffy-qi3ik oh I read it wrong my bad
As someone with an imaginary rule book, there's 158 rules, and you better be ready for the test.
i got kicked from a match when we were past the 0 timer, no reinforcements, last man standing with the samples. running around the LZ drawing out the last 2 mins for a 4min timer on dropship. and got kicked with 1min 30 secs untill extract. they lost everything because they didnt want to wait for me to survive 90 seconds.
easy solution: if a host kicks too many people they loose the ability to host an open lobby. also the spot cant be filled by another player for a few minutes. if the person that joined was sabotaging the game the host needs to manually add a report after the kick and if the metrics work out that kick doesnt get counted towards the limit. people that get kicked either get sent to a private instance of the running game or alternatively still receive rewards as if they were still in the game but failed to extract.
Don’t wanna get kicked? Be the host.
It's not about having authority it's about cultivating a community you want to come back to playing. Having everyone hosting so they can be toxic on their terms does solve jack sh*t! How are people missing that point?
@d1oftwins Nah I am a friendly host , you will only be kicked if you hack as in automatic rocket launcher type of hack
@@Draculas-knight Yes, that's great, but the HD2 community is not just you. We are talking about the bad apples and that we should get on the same page. To the best we can that is, some as*holes gonna as*hole just cause they have a smol pp. 🤷♂ And I am not saying hosting your own server is not an option, but its not a dead sure solution either. I think people would rather have fun instead of filtering out idiots. If the community gets toxic it will be harder to find good games and will degrade to a frustration fest.
@@d1oftwins on that we agree , however you can't control who is an asshole and who is not
@@Draculas-knight True, we need a in-game social credit system to blame and shame. 🤣 Would fit just right in the universe.
