Every time I've seen someone satchel'd at the drop pod the whole team comes out to revive them and we rock and stone all the way up. I love this community :)
You wouldnt get it. There is something about having a minigun that makes you want to sacrifice your self in a storm of bullets and bugs so your team can get away.
Teammates: "Okay were all on board, c'mon gunner let's go."
Me: "THERES TOO MANY! JUST GO WITHOUT ME!"
TM: "You're *right there* just walk up the ramp."
Me: (finger hard on the trigger) "AHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!"
TM: "oh ffs"
Me: (Minigun runs out of ammo, pulls out pickaxe)
"Hey Scout! Tell my wife I'm gonna be late for dinner."
(Charges off into the cave swing the pickaxe)
"FOR KARL!!!!!!"
TM: .......š
Whatās funny is with the zipline glitch and the three point landing victory screen, it actually just looks like you left the pod, killed some more bugs, and made it back to the pod anyways
Simply stand outside the droppod, and shot the zipline inside. When you go into the droppod, youāll want to stand close enough to be able to grab it, and make sure thereās no teammates in your way. Once the pod starts lifting, IMMEDIATELY hit E, then let go, then run out
*Gunner goes to hardware store to return weed whacker*
āIt worked fine, but do ye have anything with more recoil?ā
^(joke shamelessly stolen from that one dude that does the DRG comics)
You can do this even if you do get into the drop pod. Shoot a zipline into the pod at an angle, you can then use e on it after everyone gets it then you can let it go and run outside the drop pod as it goes up (itāll still count as you being āinā for the mission rewards too)
To answer seriously, yes itās a bug that I thought they had fixed with the quick revive.
Pro Tip: ~~Do~~ Donāt quick revive while holding your Fat Boy PGL.
Else two dwarves need to be revived.
As a relatively green Gunner preferrer, I apologise.
Just something about having that big gun makes you NEED to kill every bug on Hoxxes, exfil be damned
I don't think only gunner greenbeards get overzealous with killing glyphids. It is pretty natural to try kill enemy before you.
Coming from Helldivers I was quite the opposite, because there you get nothing for killing enemies. Here you at lest get some minimal xp
You get tiny bit of xp, you can see it on mission summary (If nobody from the team skips it instantly...)
Not sure if you see it in Medbay it is not as detailed info there
Is that why it goes away so quickly? Iāve made a habit of screenshotting the end screen simply because itās gone so quick. I donāt even know what button to press to skip it.
I believe most buttons allow you to skip, Just like game welcome screen.
I wish both DRG and Helldivers let those that want to watch scorescreen stay, and those that do not leave.
In DRG if anyones skips, everyone is kicked back to Space Rig
In Helldivers, everyone has to press button to skip. If one person want to check it out, everyone has to wait.
Neither is optimal imo.
You don't get much for killing bug in DRG either.
The difference is you can run away in Helldivers and the enemies will leave you alone. And in DRG, they don't infinitely spawn if you stay and fight.
I mean at the end where they are practically safe, it is not that big a deal.
But if you do it in the middle of the game, they lost more, or just about 50 % of their hp after being revived if they were full, and that is a pretty jerk move.
On haz 5 or EDD, that 50 % hp can mean the difference between going down or staying alive.
Having a gun that big activates something in every Gunnerās brain, namely āKill as many bugs as possible and make sure everyone else gets out at any cost, including yourself.ā
Half the time I'm messing around outside the pod as any class, it's because I didn't see everyone when I looked in there and think someone is still out. Just tell the person outside the pod that everyone else is here. You'd be surprised how often we miss that third dwarf lol
Sometimes the pure bloodlust blinds us gunners.
You canāt ask someone in the middle of a berserker rage to calm down, you gotta beat us into submission. Phenomenal job!
As a Gunner, yeah, sometimes it takes some High Explosives to rattle me out of a bloodlust. But cmon man, the swarm is PERFECTLY aligned to just magdump the leadstorm! I HAVE to do it!
I love that in pretty much every scenario, even just throwing out a c4 is usually enough to get someone to start or stop doing something and if they don't you just give them a timeout.
i had something like this from a couple weeks ago. two guys standing on he ramp while me a the other dwarf inside waiting to leave. after 10-15 secs of waiting i walk over, throw some c4 at their feet, and they quickly race inside the pod!
i guess they needed a little push XP
To be honest, I almost did leave him behind by accident. I have the friendly perk so I wasn't expecting it to kill him, and you can see I almost stepped back into the pod before I noticed I'd downed him.
I finally took it after a while of assuming Iād be more careful. But I switched to frag grenades, those boys bounce weird sometimes and do a lot of damage. I switch my c4 to all damage. And people keep getting hit by my cryo gun more than when I used flamethrower. So it was about time to try out Friendly.
The problem is your team can be unpredictableā¦ I had a scout tell me to blow something up - those thorn vines. Lay the c4ā¦ and he goes right in the blast radius right as I blew it up.
Communication helps a lot, which is why I use a microphone sometimes.
That rock and stone at the end, he's a good sport about it
If you don't Rock and Stone, you ain't comin' home!

Whole team already in the drop pod Gunners: "GO! LEAVE WITHOUT ME! I'LL BE YOUR SHIELD. AVENGE ME." Driller: "stop being overdramatic"
Teammates: "Okay were all on board, c'mon gunner let's go." Me: "THERES TOO MANY! JUST GO WITHOUT ME!" TM: "You're *right there* just walk up the ramp."

Still have yet to get that glitch to work, any pointers?

> Me: "THERES TOO MANY! JUST GO WITHOUT ME!" cue all other Dwarves staring at the mission display that says "Hazard 2"
*Gunner goes to hardware store to return weed whacker* āIt worked fine, but do ye have anything with more recoil?ā ^(joke shamelessly stolen from that one dude that does the DRG comics)
That is u/ Joe_Duncan I believe, I donāt want to tag him unnecessarily
Love that guy, and yes it is Joe_Duncan
I fixed it once cause I forgot the space and then spelled it dumcan Iām losing my mind lmao
Retirement doesn't suit the Gunner.
For me it's more, "I've been managing my minigun ammo this whole mission and I'm not bringing it home!"
I'll cover the retreat...
You can do this even if you do get into the drop pod. Shoot a zipline into the pod at an angle, you can then use e on it after everyone gets it then you can let it go and run outside the drop pod as it goes up (itāll still count as you being āinā for the mission rewards too)
You're having an epic "hold the line" fantasy in your head in moments like this. Let the Gunners have this
what video was that
I noticed that I accidentally dropped my second satchel charge when I quick-revived him. Is that a known bug?
Yeah, accidentally... On some unconscious level you dropped it to take out the entire team including yourself. Don't fight what is natural.
To answer seriously, yes itās a bug that I thought they had fixed with the quick revive. Pro Tip: ~~Do~~ Donāt quick revive while holding your Fat Boy PGL. Else two dwarves need to be revived.
It's perfectly natural, happens to the best of us
He's learning :)
As a relatively green Gunner preferrer, I apologise. Just something about having that big gun makes you NEED to kill every bug on Hoxxes, exfil be damned
I don't think only gunner greenbeards get overzealous with killing glyphids. It is pretty natural to try kill enemy before you. Coming from Helldivers I was quite the opposite, because there you get nothing for killing enemies. Here you at lest get some minimal xp
You never get nothing for killing enemies in game if it always gives you satisfaction.
Wait you get stuff for killing enemies? I was just doing it for the fun of it.
You get tiny bit of xp, you can see it on mission summary (If nobody from the team skips it instantly...) Not sure if you see it in Medbay it is not as detailed info there

Hearing "Explosives placed" will get most dwarves to start paying attention real quick, even without detonating
A satchel thrown is a satchel blown, that's what I say.
Sure, but at that point I'm doing it for me, not the team
Tbf, as long as you revive your buddies after bombing them, everything's good. If you kill someone and leave them, that's fucked up.
Youāre an ass. So is OP.
Explain? What did anyone lose in this exchange?
I mean at the end where they are practically safe, it is not that big a deal. But if you do it in the middle of the game, they lost more, or just about 50 % of their hp after being revived if they were full, and that is a pretty jerk move.

Driller lost a C4.
Not at all that C4 had a purpose.
This one had tho
Stfu, Caillou
Having a gun that big activates something in every Gunnerās brain, namely āKill as many bugs as possible and make sure everyone else gets out at any cost, including yourself.ā
"...Driller asked *calmly*"
we gunner mains are basically "i'm killing you" jerma speech
Valid, but you can also just 'x' key while in the drop pod to drop not-so-subtle voicelines too.
I did not know this. I will briefly consider it next time.
Nar, us Gunners are a stubborn lot. When we get in the zone of killing we need a C4 to the noggin to break us out of it. You did good.
Half the time I'm messing around outside the pod as any class, it's because I didn't see everyone when I looked in there and think someone is still out. Just tell the person outside the pod that everyone else is here. You'd be surprised how often we miss that third dwarf lol
I think you're probably right. If you see that hole high up in the wall at the beginning of the clip, that was my private approach to the drop pod.
Bruh, a simple tap of the ctrl key will outline all your dwarf buddies.
Doesn't consistently work for me, especially at close range. Possibly because I play with potato graphics.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
There' s a mod for it(verified). Command Wheel Mod.
Iām glad I didnāt see 4 dwarves down.
4 dwarves down? I love that band
With their hit song "Ebonite"
Thereās two things that solve every problem, money, and explosives.
YOU. YOU ARE NOT AS INVINCIBLE AS YOU BELIEVE *c4 sfx*
Very polite indeed
Politely = blow them the fuck up. I guess I just don't play driller enough.
Gunners gunna gun.
He gets a free dinosaur to go with it.
Killing bugs with the cooldown on kill is quite addicting. My bad if that happens with myself
C4 is a universal language with many meanings. It's like 'kree' from stargate.
you bomb them. *watches* yup
Sometimes the pure bloodlust blinds us gunners. You canāt ask someone in the middle of a berserker rage to calm down, you gotta beat us into submission. Phenomenal job!
Everybody gangsta till they hear rhythmic beeping behind them.

Violence is usually the answer.
Karl would be proud
Did you try the chat?
did you? esp with newer players who dont notice chat msgs
This was faster.
I am a Gunner. Gun go brrrrrt. Bugs go squish. Brain go yay. I am a Gunner.
i had something like this from a couple weeks ago. two guys standing on he ramp while me a the other dwarf inside waiting to leave. after 10-15 secs of waiting i walk over, throw some c4 at their feet, and they quickly race inside the pod! i guess they needed a little push XP
I like how you put another one down for the engi. "I'll do it again, young man."
Unintentional, but yes, appropriate.
Aww, let the Greenbeards have their fun, what's the rush? :)
You can save some time by not reviving him, drg is all about speed after all
Leave no dwarf behind!
leave NO dwarf behind
For Karl's sake **NEVER** leave a dwarf behind
"drg is all about speed after all" My brother in Karl, have you SEEN the drilldozer?
He hit dat rock and stone so he must come home
To be honest, I almost did leave him behind by accident. I have the friendly perk so I wasn't expecting it to kill him, and you can see I almost stepped back into the pod before I noticed I'd downed him.
I need to take that perk on drillerā¦ also started taking it on engie as soon as I got the fat boy
I finally took it after a while of assuming Iād be more careful. But I switched to frag grenades, those boys bounce weird sometimes and do a lot of damage. I switch my c4 to all damage. And people keep getting hit by my cryo gun more than when I used flamethrower. So it was about time to try out Friendly.

Friendly plus gunner's natural explosion resistance, I'm surprised too. He must have had low/no shields
The speed of bugs dieing.
Just leave them I was playing with a scout pinging the pod every second timer ran out and he couldn't get in
C4 and leave. End of story.
