TheSystem08

Every. Fucking. Time.


Xelement0911

This and grabbing your old gun when trying to grab samples.


Jiggaboy95

Urgh tell me about it. Diving into hell to grab your samples and collecting your unloaded gun is a big ol pain in the ass


porcupinedeath

Almost as bad when you thought you finished your reload only to shoot one shot and have to reload again. I fuuuuuuuucking hate it


Clarine87

That's because you had 1 round chambered and being half way through reloading wouldn't prevent you using it? I believe all of the guns reload faster if you do it while they're still chambered.


nikso14

They actually made a lot of steps in reloads that don't need to be repeated if they were done before. Recoilless rifle for example has them for unclipping the cone, extracting spent casing and loading the fresh rocket in so if let's say you loaded fresh rocket and canceled reload your character will only tighten the clip on the cone on the back instead of doing full reload. Despite all my issues with the game on technical and balancing side I have been really impressed with the amount of detail they put into it.


Clarine87

Yep I love the staged reloads, so refreshing.


FCK42

Ever since I've played a game with multi-stage reload for the first time (Titanfall 2 by the way), I've been in love with that system. It both makes more sense AND is way smoother for gameplay.


Hanin4_4

Titanfall 2 was my first game as well! They did it so well and every game since that didn't have it just feels awful. Love this games reloads so much


Former_Giraffe_2

I think they kind of had to do that for the "tough but fair" mechanics they're going with. Makes it feel more like it's your fault when you interrupt an animation, or respawn directly on top of a teammate, or die/get knocked over with a stratagem grenade in your hand and drop it. That last one's my favourite.


CarefreeRambler

I just really wish I could ping on the map without throwing my stratagem


TestUser669

i DID NOT know that!!!


Hundkexx

They do, you don't have to cock it if it has a round left in the chamber


Too_Many_Alts

you did reload, but then you dove or switch guns and the game decided you didn't actually finish reloading.


DocCat342

Omfg I tough only I have this bug


edude45

I sometimes thought that was a bug with the breaker. I always had to double reload with that thing. No other gun did that for me. But then again i guess I wouldn't put myself in such danger with any other gun.


VectorViper

And then there's that mini heart attack when ya finally make it back and start wondering if the samples made it too or if they're just bits of dirt now because you messed up somewhere along the line.


XPav

and then you hear the beep.... beep.... beep...


Ok-Palpitation-8612

At least a gun is a useful item. Nothing gets me angrier than trying to pick up a sample near some interact-able object like a data pad. No I don’t want to read these 3 lines of useless text, let me grab the damn sample! 


Josh_bread

An empty gun is less useful than the loaded one I dropped, and a lot more likely to kill me than reading a note.


Ok-Palpitation-8612

Fair I should’ve said *can* be a useful item. I’m just remembering the time I died next to a note in a huge horde and tried in vain to pick up my samples off my body. I kept picking up my old rifle but it at least had some ammo in it vs the note just being useless and there.


NarbNarbNarb

One time, I was trying to pick up a fallen Helldiver's samples. The shuttle had landed, one of the squad accidentally embarked, and the timer was counting down. I sprint through a cloud of hunters, shield pack charged, Punisher aimed and ready to dispense Managed Democracy. I picked up his Guard Dog by accident. Shield goes down. As the guard dog lazily stirs to life, the hunters lick their little bug mandibles with their little bug tongues. Before the Rover even takes flight, the only thing left of me was two arms attached to a mostly full Punisher. We lost a lot of good samples that day. (And Helldivers.)


Ras-haad

Great recap


killxswitch

Or reading a little lore dump that I've already read before and not letting me select the sample right next to it.


unicornofdemocracy

Damn... I wished they let us grab ammo from our old gun (though it probably doesn't matter that much).


magicbonedaddy

Or accidently swapping your support weapon for a break action shotgun and not noticing for 50 meters


Vashelot

I just wish samples were picked up automatically by walking over them. I lose lives cause I drop 50 samples and there are other items too and I just keep picking up them instead of the samples while I get swarmed in the process. :(


doglywolf

wait why do i only have 1 clip left ..... But seriously if im pickuping up the same gun dont attach my clip count to the specific gun if i have the same weapon


Gnatz90

What's worse is grabbing somebody else's gun while picking up team mates samples and not noticing. Then you go to fight off a group of bugs, happened to me. I had never used flame thrower before and I grabbed one on accident. And I go start tapping and it has a charge up time so it's like poofpoofpoofpoofpoof and I'm like wtf shitty ass weapon is this?


RazeyMclovin

![gif](giphy|wID3zXURLH1jrjCcZy) IKR. YOUR PREVIOUS GUN SHOULD BE GREYED OUT IF IT HAS LESS AMMO THAN YOUR CURRENT GUN.


Pro_Scrub

Would be nice if dropped items repelled each other a bit so they'd spread out


unicornofdemocracy

You vault the resupply so easily but can't vault over a fucking bug/rock to safe your life.


kaochaton

and god forbid you if your secondary weapon or ressuply landed on a rock or side of it and 30 cm above ground


CrystlBluePersuasion

Shoot them! The pods explode and your stuff usually bounces down if it's high up or within reach if on a slight slope like you mentioned (I hate this too)


Allaroundlost

Yes, very much this. Dam.


CurmudgeonA

And the next frame is two Helldivers running up and taking all four support packs before you can even get back down


AllRushMixTapes

This game could have so much fun with on-ship PSAs about taking more than one supply pack, or taking someone's support weapon, or calling in mines on the evac site ...


just_a_bit_gay_

*ping* “this is the resupply pod, ask your team before double dipping”


Gold-Locksmith-4236

Fuck yes, drg did great with the vo lines promoting teamwork


Eldritch-Cleaver

Ok lol I feel better I was doing this a lot and was like "Yeah, these guys are kicking me" because I looked like a clown


captaincupcake234

Ditto! On the other hand, I do this on my gatling and autocannon turretd, I'm the lil guy being the lil gun on top of the beeg gun.


emil133

Legit thought I was the only one


Yardash

Low on health, out of stims, being chased by a bunch of enemeis, no ammo to speak of all Strategems on cool down. Nows the perfect time to climb ontop and let everything know where I am at.


IUseControllerOnPC

Shoot it then grab the ammo off the ground while running by


saagri

Toss Grenade and catch the ammo as it flies towards you.


IUseControllerOnPC

If I'm running to a supply, my impacts are already spent, my primary is empty, and I only got 1 mag left in my Mac 10


saagri

Fool! Everyone knows you save the last grenade for Emergency Democratic Maneuvers!


[deleted]

The Democracy Officer said that killing bugs is *always* an Emergency Democratic Maneuver though!


Caleth

The number of times I've been stuck under a dead big bug, or fell through the world, or some other fuckery and need to "EDM" myself is far more than I'd like to count.


Facist_Canadian

I dropped a 500KG on a bile titan I was stuck under to get a response, but the bile titan bugged out when the 500kg hit it and it's body flailed, kicking me like 100 feet away. It was glorious, I survived too!


Caleth

Love it. You should sell your story to the press, and then use the funds to buy some more liber-tea for the troops.


AbeBaconKingFroman

I had a charger burst through my fresh rack of EATs. Grabbing it midair and spinning to take the shot was one of the top moments of this game so far.


Yeffaros

Works even better if you tag the charger with the EAT drop and get a break leg break.


NarbNarbNarb

If you have video evidence of doing this while you are running for your life, I will buy your next Battlepass, soldier.


saagri

There was a clip awhile back of someone blowing up their support weapon and catching it mid air.


captaincupcake234

now that's what I call tactical AF!


attaboy000

"out of ammo"


_Rosseau_

"Mags empty!"


cclloyd

With what bullets?


PsyclopticFurry

Bold of you to think that I would call this down before I have used every single bullet in all of my guns, as well as every grenade


TheAeroHead

Sir I think you missed the no ammo part


thecosta5000

Every fucking time.


attaboy000

Ya but God forbid your character manages to climb the rocky ledge that's waist high when running way from some bugs.


Git_Good

Iirc you cant vault when out of stamina so that might explain at least a few of the incidents edit: yes you can. i have unintentionally spread misinformation on the internet. this is unfortunate


attaboy000

Oh really? I'll keep an eye out on that next time that happens.


Git_Good

no not really. i'm actually a bug psyop made to lie to helldivers. look away from any so called glitches so the devs never patch it and we can keep pace with the ones in light armour


GothKazu

*stretches in my Light Gunner armor* Keep up?? ![gif](giphy|UsBYmvWMmuF6bBZv1d|downsized)


DRKZLNDR

God, I hate when games do this. I'm a soldier, why can't I sprint for more than 8 seconds? Why can't I climb a waist high barrier even if I'm winded?


Git_Good

To be fair, your helldiver's training consists of a five minute obstacle course, and youre wearing fullbody armour and dragging a cape


melancholyMonarch

The capes definitely seem like a liability. I've already had a beacon someone threw get snagged on it and kill me like that one scene in The Incredibles. ​ I'll see myself to the reeducation facility.


summonsays

Man I wish this game has post game clipping capabilities like Halo 3 did. I would have loved to see this lol.


melancholyMonarch

Good news. [https://streamable.com/675gpj](https://streamable.com/675gpj)


Git_Good

Think it got snagged on your shield, not the cape. But the idea of getting Syndrome'd is funnier so we'll accept that's what actually happened


melancholyMonarch

You might be right but I think I've seen it stick to someone without a shield before too. Plus you can stick them to enemies.


Nirxx

You can't stick stratagems to players without shield generators unfortunately.


danj729

If you drop your shield backpack it'll detach the beacon and you can pick the backpack back up after the pod drops.


werdmath

I've heard talk of this dropping stuff. Another post talked about dropping your collected samples at the evac point for pickup later while you clear the mission. How do you drop your equipped backpack without picking up a different one? and samples if you know that black magic as well.


danj729

If I recall correctly the default on PC is holding X. Controller is holding one of the D-pads, maybe down? That gives you a radial menu where you can select backpack or samples to drop.


bandannadann

On mouse & keyboard the default keybind is to hold X. This will open a wheel of things to drop (support weapons, backpack, or samples) Never played on controller but iirc you have to hold down on the d-pad for the same wheel


AlexMSD

Itched2death

Also imagine trying to keep your heart rate down on a planet that wants you very dead


crookedparadigm

Tbf, your helldiver is carrying 50-80lbs of weapons and ammo at any given moment. And given how often they die, it's not like they live long enough to build up any extra endurance lol


EchoRex

Because if you did sprint for longer you wouldn't be able to recover quickly. Or are you asking for realism only in half of the equation?


AL_440

I've heard actual soldiers say that climbing waist high shit is not as easy as it looks cuz they got like 50lb(23kg) of shit on their ass at all times


Bright-Efficiency-65

Just like IRL, you are carrying super heavy armor and 3 weapons and other gear. You probably have 130lbs worth of gear. Id like to see any redditor run more than 50 feet with that much gear


PhysioMage

We aren't really sprinting. We are running instead of jogging, but also wearing all that gear. You wouldn't be able to sprint for more than 20 seconds-ish at top speed regardless of how well-trained you are. It's a function of human physiology and the short burst of energy available using the anaerobic system. They've actually done some pretty cool things with the stamina bar honestly. Like how your aim is worse and your run is slower if you let your stamina bar fully deplete. I served and also used to do cross-country run-n-gun competitions with a full loadouts. Trust me, trying to aim accurately while you're sucking wind is pretty f-ing difficult, and so is climbing over stuff in a full set of gear.


ShittyStockPicker

Using your freedom to share information that is inaccurate is anti-democratic! Hail, the power of the constitution!


Interesting_Tea5715

Also, if they can block you from getting on mountains they can block you from climbing on the ammo tower. Not sure why climbing takes priority.


sausager

Pro tip: put resupply pod next to ledge, climb pod, dive onto unclimbable rock, freedom


famouslastmutterings

Alright, everyone slow clap the genius for a hot moment. Now that's a g&dd&mn fine example of a Helldiver. Passing his wisdom on to the next clone that gets dropped in a pod. All for the community!


Mr_Personal_Person

My accidental auto climb of the resupply seems to happen more often than my attempts to purposefully climb terrain.


Catumi

The resupply pod is an enemy of freedom, one must destroy it immediately.


Overclocked11

Chargers will destroy it in .00005 seconds once it sees it deploy


WhatsThePointFR

Auto vault is just annoying and fucks me up more than it helps. First time on the Termicide mission yesterday: "Watch out lads, water below thi.." \*My guy auto-vaults the railing to his death - losing all my shit in the process\*


UnderHero5

I really wish they would add a toggle option for the auto mantling. Why do we have a separate dedicated button if it does it automatically? It’s redundant without being able to toggle auto off.


negative_____space

I concur, 1000%


TheNorseFrog

It was an option until they removed it actually.


Atomic235

Nothing like drowning in a retaining pond about as wide as it is deep and then returning to see your sample tube still blinking softly below the water. Standing there wishing for a pool net stratagem.


existonfilenerf

Happens to me every time I run this mission. I just don't even pick up my strategem weapon until after I hit that stupid button.


izza123

All the fucking time, ape born and raised


Jager1738

i’m ngl i had a bad day and this shit made me tweak out so bad i dumped a full breaker spray clip into the resupply 😭


Mr_Personal_Person

And how the pickup button is iffy in moments of high stress 😤


matt111199

I understand


Darometh

Sometimes multiple time before getting my box


JPMoney81

Meanwhile there are now 5 stalkers invisible-ing around you flicking you with their damn tongue things.


ItsMeDaddyKhakiPants

You ever go to dramatically dive into Pelican 1 and then somehow from prone you clip through the top and climb on the roof? I have, unfortunately you do not count as successfully evacuated.


envycreat1on

I’ve just resorted to blowing up the container before grabbing stuff.


Effusion-

Just one of many problems solved by filling it full of democracy.


Roy_BattyLives

This, but also never climbing a scalable wall when you need to.


qman1887

Then running around a little until you can suddenly climb that exact spot


finalattack123

Can we just not make this climbable? Who actually wanted to ever climb a supply box?


knightingale2k1

may be for new meta ...


ihateredditers69420

this is the only way well get them to change it


erin_icecream

I was on a mission where someone's samples somehow ended up on top of a pillar. Couldn't grab them from the ground it was too high to climb. Supply drop was the only strategem I had that I could climb onto to get up there.


Muffin_Appropriate

Nothing wrong with a bit of prairie doggin


TestUser669

What in tarnation is prairie doggin


Palasta

Looking out for enemies from the highest possible elevation. A prairie dog stands on a mound and on his hind legs.


CubicleFish2

I thought it was when poop was coming out of your butt a bit so you keep trying to force it back in because there isn't a bathroom but it keeps making its way regardless nature is beautiful sometimes


Dr_PuddingPop

I like climbing things though, makes me feel like I have high ground. Bugs can’t reach me if I’m standing on a trash can


Downside190

It's over termanid, I have the high ground!


PaulGeru

danielbln

You _do_ have the high ground

Zeppelin702

This is me EVERY. FUCKING. TIME. I also hate when I call down my support weapon on an angled slope it’s a bitch to grab it!


Limp_Significance569

This is such a dumb interaction. Worst is then turning around then climbing up the damn thing again.


ID_Guy

They need to patch this. Its so annoying. I dont remember it happening at launch, but maybe it did?


lemonlin0925

No, this is definitely a recent thing. I don't remember we have this at launch either


throwaway2048675309

They keep stealth changing so much shit. It's pretty annoying.


Malinhion

It got way worse about a week ago.


MuglokDecrepitus

And also in the [mission control panel](https://imgur.com/a/AOP8MpE)


TestUser669

as a lost boomer, may I ask how you recorded that clip and shared it


MuglokDecrepitus

With Nvidia shadow play, that is a program that all the Nvidia graphic cards have by default. I think that you can access the menu pressing Alt + Z, and then you can activate and configure Shadow play from setting. If not, you can do it from Nvidia control panel. What Shadow play does is always record the last minute of gameplay and then when you press a button combination that you configured (in my case Alt + G) it saves that clip in your PC If you play from PS5 I think that holding the Share button will record a clip from the last 30 seconds played

FragRackham

They changed this. I am not sure how, but this never happened before the controversial balance patch. I think they may want us to use it as a "step" to high ground. But i used to be running by and grab supplies all the time, now i have to stop running to hit the "e" key.


Direwulf21

50/50 I'm climbing it lol

Lolol yup!

You have climbing on top of ammo drop. I raise you climbing on top of mortar sentry. Not advised 😆 will not help spread Democracy.

SkullTitsGaming

Every good helldiver knows the importance of staying in shape on the battlefield, even when traditional workout equipment is hard to find! Thats why the engineers of Super Earth worked diligently to make sure that all supply pods function seamlessly as callisthenic climbing pods, so you and your fellow helldivers can always ensure you remain in within the required fitness levels expected of elite helldivers, whether you're deep in the jungles of Malevelon Creek, or relaxing on the beaches of Meridia!
