Toxic Behavior in Helldivers 2 Public Matches Sours Multiplayer Experience for Some Players
-
Some Helldivers 2 players are being toxic by fighting over shared resources and team-killing to steal weapons, despite attempts by the developer to reduce toxicity.
-
High level players are bickering about mission types, loadouts, and stratagems, with some even team-killing to steal gear.
-
There are many reports of players randomly kicking teammates right before the end of missions to deny rewards.
-
These toxic behaviors seem uncommon overall but are happening frequently enough to sour some players on the public matchmaking experience.
-
In response, more players are hosting private games to moderate lobbies themselves or asking for better reporting tools to help punish disruptive players.
