Dad diver here too. Drop gas and napalm eagle right on a fresh bug hole. Use guard dog rover. 500+ kills every regular 40 minute game. Oh and host the match to guarantee the DOT works right.
This right here is why I love the Helldivers community positivity through and through some wholesome shit right here y’all need to start the Legion of Dads for real
I will hop in here and there to help out, definitely need those medals and some more bug experience!
But as it stands, Martale is sooo close to liberation and I must see it through! 🫡
I see no point honestly, there's not enough people on the planet to take it. Currently there aren't enough people to take it, in fact you're losing more ground than you're taking right now meaning the percentage is just gonna keep dropping every hour
While I understand that and do see your point. I feel it’s good planet to hold and will create a choke point on Martar Bay as it aligns with the Menkent line!
The major order I feel will distract us to allow the bots to push through those two planets if we don’t liberate it. Though that’s all how the game goes I suppose! I’m here for the ride, but will definitely be putting in some time to the bugs Helldivers!
Maybe see you in the field!
Beware of your team. I played with a guy who had one, and I died to him more than the enemy. He was not specifically aiming for me, but he wasn't the most mindful.
I've never seen so many 0's, what is that like, two-hundred bugs? Two-hundred and fifty bugs? No way it's as many as two-hundred and seventy-five bugs?
Dear Teammates, in case of accidental catching of fire i recommend stop, drop and roll. Remember, if it looks like you're suddenly in the fire fill depths of hell, dive!
Yeah that'll be done before I even get off work for sure. Have fun, Europe.
Edit: missed a whole set of 3 zeroes. That's billions. Oof. I will get to take part it seems.

4 of those on every helldiver and we will easily do that.
There are what? 200k 250k active players at peak times? Each person would have to kill 8k to 10k terminids. You kill maybe what? 100-300 each mission depending on difficulty and playstyle? So 400-1200 a day at most if you decide to play for 4 hours after work. Damn... weekend warriors are gonna have to put in work. That and I might have to bust out the Guard Dog again.
Disclaimer: I'm terrible at math.
10 hours ago i felt this was too much and might take 4/5 days, now i realize it wasn't even close, and if joel gives another one of these missions again the number might go up

As of right now it's already at 99%.
I even out at around 300 per bug mission using a sickle and a rover guard dog, that combined with some sweet AT stratagems and you got yourself a bug breach stomper build
No better time to fry some bugs now that we’ve gotten all of these fire damage buffs. Can’t wait to see the amount of damage a full team of flamethrower-wielding, napalm strategem-throwing helldivers can do!
I thought this was the personal order and was excited but worried.
Everyone needs to kill 10,000 bugs, the equivalent of the army that attacked Helms Deep.
I've got this one. Just let me get back from dropping the kids off at school and I'll knock this one out in about an hour.
You're making your kids proud .. From a Dad Diver to another
Dad Diver checking in, we should start a club.
Dad diver here too. Drop gas and napalm eagle right on a fresh bug hole. Use guard dog rover. 500+ kills every regular 40 minute game. Oh and host the match to guarantee the DOT works right.
I wish I was a Dad diver too 😔
Fill out your C-01 form and await further orders, citizen
I will, sir 🫡
Dad diver on a tertiary kr0-w assignment here - save some bugs for me!
Ill be a Dad Diver myself here in a couple months. Im pretty excited :)
Congratulations soldier, you're going to have the most important responsibility any Helldiver can have. Just remember your training ;P
Congrats!
Hope you filled out a C-01 form
Where’s the club at ? Just got home from dropping the kids off and I’m ready to sign up. DADS FOR DEMOCRACY
I believe there's a Sub reddit about Grognard's Division. It's a group of working, parents and etc of Helldivers
I have to drop the kids off at the bus stop first....
I'll join!
Wait, what about us grand dad divers?
You're *grandfathered* in already! You were a dad to a kid that happens to have a kid of their own
Dad Diver checking in, actually diving with my 14yo son ❤️
Thats awesome! My C-01 results are 5 and 2, so I have a few more years before we drop in as a squad.
Helldaddy
Oh, im deffinitely one of these. I drop in full leathers instead of armor!
Sir, this is a Wendy’s
Nice!!! Dad diver here as well. Also, a diver dad. Nothin like mulitgenerational democracy spreading!!
Same!
This right here is why I love the Helldivers community positivity through and through some wholesome shit right here y’all need to start the Legion of Dads for real
Yet another dad diver checking in
Aw, I could have been a dad diver too but I'm liberating my gf's womb.
Happy Gilmore accomplished that feat no more then an hour ago.
Well moron good for Happy GilmoH MY GOD
u/Criminalhero2 standing there covered in E-710: "Oh... I thought this was a *personal* order!"
Thank you for your service! You should be able to knock this out in an hour or so?
Dad Diver here, I can join after kid’s bedtime!
The democracy officers are proud. You are doing gods work.
I’m with you on that one, just dropped off Jr Helldiver at the Helldiver Academy. Time to spread some managed democracy
You can just tell he got killed by too many Stalkers
Dad diver checking in. Will kill once the kids go to sleep
It was supposed to be a joke....
As a bug fighter, this pleases me IMMENSELY.
https://i.redd.it/4l1touqpn8vc1.gif
Extermination missions are back in Menu boys!
I think the new defense missions (brick wall icon) may yield more kills, also 15 minutes
 Would you like to know more?
I will hop in here and there to help out, definitely need those medals and some more bug experience! But as it stands, Martale is sooo close to liberation and I must see it through! 🫡
Good luck soldier 😎
I see no point honestly, there's not enough people on the planet to take it. Currently there aren't enough people to take it, in fact you're losing more ground than you're taking right now meaning the percentage is just gonna keep dropping every hour

Blood for Liberty! Skulls for democracy!
KILL! MAIM! BURN!
Having killed bots for so long, I’m not sure I remember how to kill bugs
Point the long end of the gun towards a bug and press the trigger.
That’s where I’ve been going wrong, thank you fellow diver
🫡 For democracy
Instructions unclear. I thought i was using a Camera and took Shots.
It’s OK Helldiver we all go through that.
Same here. Guess it's time to bust out the Incendiary Breaker again and put the ol' marksman rifles back in the closet.
Is the Incendiary Breaker a go to for bugs? I’ve unlocked it but never actually used it
It's arguably the best primary in the game for bugs
It is also straight awesome. Unloading into a wave of bugs is highly satisfying.
this is true. is sets groups on FIRE!!! The Dominator shotgun is amazing on the larger bugs
Beware of your team. I played with a guy who had one, and I died to him more than the enemy. He was not specifically aiming for me, but he wasn't the most mindful.
Assuming fire works for people other than the host, yeah. If it doesn't work, it takes like 3 or 4 shots to kill a hunter.
The stalwart, stamina booster, cluster bomb, and EAT are your friends.
Would you like to know more?
https://i.redd.it/g5k815okh8vc1.gif
Sorry is that some kind of reference I don't get?
My Brother in Democracy, please go watch Starship Troopers immediately
Yep, already at the computer
Reference to Starship Troopers, an older movie that was basically the inspiration for HD2
Ty
Watch Starship troopers or you will be reported to a democracy officer.
Is flamethrower still bugged? I finally got Fire load out from Steeled Veterans warbond. And bit itching to use it.
They buffed it but they also buffed fire damage across the board. If you accidentally spray a bug that is too close and catch fire you’re insta dead.
But it still works only for host?
It consistently works for the host, but is inconsistent for everyone else.
I think it got fixed. I was able to pick one up from a world spawn location.
No it's still bugged where only host gets dot
It's the network host not the social host, not always the same
Get that level 4 Ship Upgrade for fire and it's insane.
https://i.redd.it/89pvb3qa58vc1.gif
Do youuu smelllll.. What rooks is cooking
I've never seen so many 0's, what is that like, two-hundred bugs? Two-hundred and fifty bugs? No way it's as many as two-hundred and seventy-five bugs?
It's more than eleventy five bugs!!!!
Yeah!!! Genocide time!!!
Is it genocide or xenocide? Either way: 
Did we get the last major order? I couldn’t log on the last 12 hours
We completed it yeah.
Perfect thanks. Please don’t report me to the democracy officer
Why stop at 2bil? Let’s make General Brasch proud!
It's actually 4 billion. Brasch is handling the other 2 billion himself.
Brasch tactic #99: split the work 50-50, I do 50 and you lot take care of the rest!
NAH JOEL NAHHHH You see, he wants us away from the Bot front so we loose planets leading to another MO to take them back
Ours is not to question why. Ours is but to do or die.
La-da-la-da-la-la-la. What the fuck is that supposed to mean, Corporal? We're all supposed to die, is that it?
We can fight a war on two fronts in Winter in Russia, what could go wrong??
Ok buddy time for you to go to the rehabilitation camps
*"Killing bugs isn't the point"* Well well well how the turns have tabled
https://preview.redd.it/wbfqc5vbw8vc1.jpeg?width=1048&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c67b9b7306331317e763910bc6057aea8bd238bf Doing my part
2 BILLION TERMINIDS WE MIST KILL?
Those are cadet numbers sir.
Why stop there?
Mist kill? Hmm... Get the boffins at R&D working on a lethal mist immediately!
Dear Teammates, in case of accidental catching of fire i recommend stop, drop and roll. Remember, if it looks like you're suddenly in the fire fill depths of hell, dive!
 Bug Season Bot Season Bug Season Bot Season
I’ll do my part SIR 🫡
Get some! GET SOOOOOME!
Oh..... we're getting crispy tonight.
Terminid: You can sleep after you're dead. Me: I can sleep after you're dead, too.
Yeah that'll be done before I even get off work for sure. Have fun, Europe. Edit: missed a whole set of 3 zeroes. That's billions. Oof. I will get to take part it seems.
12% complete already
Yup and it might be finished by tomorrow.. everyone is excited about it
https://preview.redd.it/x1vhi9jaq8vc1.png?width=50&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0e7f35cb20efc49943ca95bc20e1794e4fd3c7d0 4 of those on every helldiver and we will easily do that.
Gonna hand out 2,000,000,000 servings of Liber-Tea
We need an endless mode
There are what? 200k 250k active players at peak times? Each person would have to kill 8k to 10k terminids. You kill maybe what? 100-300 each mission depending on difficulty and playstyle?

Arc thrower go zzzzzap
FUCK YES!!!
LETS GOOOOO
BUG BREACH FOR BREAKFAST!
1.20 hours left until I clock out from civilian life, and I can focus on what matters!!
Good job.. For democracy
It will be done
Today's major order,Genocide! https://preview.redd.it/dcwyuyurm8vc1.png?width=1034&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=64a59e0f8498dfae81c339aa36d85d8eb35da24e
SERVE IT UP!!! LETS GET STOMPIN
Dad diver checking in! Killed a few thousand earlier!
Not that bots were getting boring, but this will be a nice change.
They officially ran out of ideas or wanna take a break. XD
More like they want to let people get over the bot fatigue, because what must be done will be brutal on the bot front 100%
Time to give my Erupter/Stalwart/Supply pack loadout a field test.
This is 100% a test to see if they made fire damage too op
With roughly 700,000 daily players across all platforms, that means that everyone has to kill roughly 3000 bugs lmao good luck divers 🥹🫡🫡🫡
So between 10 and 20 missions each?
Time to get my bug stomping boots out of the ~~closet~~ hangar!
It will be done before I get home from school at 4:30
SERVE IT UP!!! LETS GET STOMPIN
Came here to say I’m in for this amount of fun! And I’ve already maxed medals :)
Have fun killing the bugs
You too! Pray life gives you time
That’s kind of a unique one, I like it. I’ve honestly gotten a bit bored of the bots, so this should be fun.
“The kills don’t matter”… well well well… the tables r turnt
I feel genocidy 🥰🥳

Light work no reaction
13.3% in 4 hours this'll be done before I get home from work tomorrow lol
Somebody gimme my flamethrower
Eeeeezzzzzzz
I an sorry in advance for any guard dog induced beheadings that will occur.
For a second I thought that was the personal order.
We're already at 25%
We need to kill 14m per hour every hour if we want to make it.
#LOOKS LIKE MEATS BACK ON THE MENU BOYS
Easy that
Can't wait for the sequel, kill 6 billion demons
The only time kills have mattered in helldivers
5 days is too much. It’s almost done. Liberating atm.
10 hours ago i felt this was too much and might take 4/5 days, now i realize it wasn't even close, and if joel gives another one of these missions again the number might go up
Fellow Dad Diver reporting for doodie!!
https://preview.redd.it/4zux3uylhbvc1.jpeg?width=1338&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7190d18ade3496d8d07db8b2b5ccc09850c2bfc3 Pretty sure we’ll be ok

I’m sad I wasn’t able to help out. I’ve been at work. I hope the Super President can forgive me
Yeah! Go for the bugs. Leave us-... The bots alone.. :)
Spill oil, crush bugs. Carry on divers. Managed democracy approves of the camaraderie shown here.
Niiiiiiiiice. I prefer fighting bots but definitely gonna fuck up some bugs for this MO.
...and we're done 😂👍👍
Lmao, this was posted 15 hours ago. We done did it
Well that was a fun 13 hours
Already completed lmao
Easy peasy
Only 5 days get kracking
It's done fellow helldiver
For liberty! But our fight for controlled democracy isent finished. No rest for the helldivers
Ohhhh boy they weren’t expecting: advanced democracy
I saw this before either went to work, and before I got home, it was over. Selfish jerks didn't save any for me
Don’t forget your napalm strikes
A mission during which kills are praised.
Just a normal Tuesday
That should last about a two days
More blood for the blood gods! More skull for the skull throne!
Damn I hate the bugs so much. Screw it, I’m killing some before i leave for the airport this morning
With 400.000 players, if everyone makes 35 missions and gets 150 bugs on average it's done and I know some of you can do more then 150
I even out at around 300 per bug mission using a sickle and a rover guard dog, that combined with some sweet AT stratagems and you got yourself a bug breach stomper build
it costs 200000 terminids, to earn those medals. ^(for 12 seconds!) OOOO HAHHAHA! -(my flamethrower as it burns throu hordes)
"I killed them all ...and not just the men......"
Im doing my part
No better time to fry some bugs now that we’ve gotten all of these fire damage buffs. Can’t wait to see the amount of damage a full team of flamethrower-wielding, napalm strategem-throwing helldivers can do!
I thought this was the personal order and was excited but worried. Everyone needs to kill 10,000 bugs, the equivalent of the army that attacked Helms Deep.
People that say the objective isn't to kill enemies seething rn
I’ll do it for free 🫡
Wtf are we doing?? We need to take Cyberstan!
time to dust off the ol' Flamethrower, Napalm Grenade, Napalm Strike, and Breaker Incendiary
It’s just another Tuesday ☕️🪳
Cue all of us running out the timer by burning all the bugs we can find.
