New players are vicious creatures

I wanted to help some new players out on fronteria, while also running some wacky builds. I lowered the difficulty to challenging and started joining.

Good lord, even if the mission went incredibly well, no one died, it was always a bloodbath at extraction. One player would(most likely) jokingly kill another, and then it was a free for all.

At one extraction, I had to gun down 3 people trying to kill me, reinforce them while getting into the ship, and instead of running to the ship, they proceeded to gun each other down cartel style.

I think I heard one begging for his life.. vicious creatures.

Oh you sweet summer child..

No but in all seriousness, it's crazy that this is the way the devs will listen.

The thing is though, as soon as said issues are fixed/reverted, the bad reviews need to be deleted. I hope people are diligent enough to do that if you care enough to put a bad review on the game.

Now to preface, I don't necessarily condone review bombing a game, but this isn't necessarily review bombing if the critiques are actual criticism. I think it gets into that territory when people are like "we are almost there! We are close to mostly negative!!" And that's when I get a little weirded out.

I've had a "not recommended" review on helldiver's for a couple months already, due to the new player experience being absolute garbage, and them not updating the ship upgrades in a LONG time.

The main issue I have is the current mode of transportation for feedback, but the even bigger issue, is that this might be the only way for the community to show that "these balancing changes are cheeks"

Now personally, I don't have that big of an issue with the hiveguards changes they made, I just want a more creative way to kill them, the big issue for me is the monkeys paw balancing for the mechs, and the fact that the mechs only get updated when a mech warbond is released(which is the common trend for most changes around anything).

Also, a lot of people have wanted mech customization for a long time, and they solidified that they aren't going to do that with releasing two unique mech stratagems.

Now, this leads to my question, what do you lovely helldivers think about the current reviews of the game?

Just a PSA for any new players in the reddit. I like helping people, but joining and then getting kicked wastes my time and yours as well.
