Why is there a button to activate someone else's hellbomb backpack???

[20 Percent Cooler]

Tried to give this dude some supplies, only to accidentally turn him into an unwilling suicide bomber. Later on someone else drops in and sees a popup and assumes it's a stim prompt, and in attempting to save his life he instead blows him to hell... not to mention this is also completely wasting the stratagem every time this happens, on a 5-minute cooldown.

I really don't know what they were thinking with this one, imagine if someone could walk up and steal ammo from your supply pack or something lmao, please remove the ability for other players to arm your hellbomb backpack.

Problem is that this game is clearly aimed at played not just in co-op, but with friends and family. It's closer to Mario Party in it's intention than to other co-op shooters.

i agree, if i play with randoms it basically has to be diff 6-7 because everyone just does their own thing

Shame they don't bring teamwork functionality to reloading support weapons without the supporting player requiring a backpack.

honestly this, if they allowed you to simply grab ammo and load it into someones gun from the backback it would be a good change, i have legit never used the team reload because it requires more coordination than "hey lets do it now" most of the time

It's basically a worthless strategem anyway.

It increases the number of funny moments the hellbomb backpack was meant to create.

I bought the hellbomb stratagem just for cheeky shenanigans, but no one ever activated my bomb. :'(

i did not realize I wanted this until you said it.

♥♥♥♥, now I REALLY want it.

Helldivers 1.

Makes for good Teamplay tactics where one diver shoots his rocket launcher gets reloaded via assissted loading from a fellow diver who, in turn, keeps his rockets stocked up by grabbing ammo from the first players (the shooter) supply pack.

But allas...

Instead we have people with hellbombs that cant grab ammo themselfs but are harder to supply with stims or ammo because they explode.

I remember the other day a guy went "what's this do?" and pushed the button. I purposely just stood there next to him, instead of dropping it and running away, because that might've tipped him off to what was about to happen.

Love the button.
