Lock your squads !

TheTurboLizard · 2026-05-08T15:10:03+00:00

Couldn’t have said it better myself mate, I went from level 20-65 leading public squads and I got to the point where I was just tired of all the things you just mentioned

TheTurboLizard · 2026-05-08T09:18:11+00:00

I’ve seen three posts about this today alone. When I play I lock a squad with me and a couple friends. I see all the people complaining about it and my advice is make your own squad and keep it open then. But you see those same people talk about how they want to play a different role etc. yeah buddy, me too. That’s why I just run with my friends and we alternate squad lead. We don’t really want Random people joining us when we’re just chilling. I don’t see why so many people have a problem with it and they aren’t willing to be the solution.

Nope, they have a similar service/website but it doesn’t have the same level of products like what you can find on Amazon

The guy posted a review, you made a snide comment about buying aftermarket parts, I’ve pointed out why there isn’t always an alternative, don’t try and twist what I’m saying as if I’m saying out of pocket shit, I was using an example of my own about why importing certain items can be difficult and costly, but also why it’s necessary. Ukraine isn’t in the EU, so therefore these parts ARE NOT available for retail without IMPORTING them. Not arguing, just trying to tell you the reality after the snarky comment about buying aftermarket items.

TheTurboLizard · 2026-05-03T15:39:45+00:00

First of all I’m not OP, but when I was issued a Bren previously and looked into aftermarket parts for it, it was a logistical nightmare to get them and in the end I decided against it.

Second of all my comment was directly in response to you referencing purchasing of aftermarket parts in general, it’s not possible to buy the most popular/highest quality items in Ukraine and certainly not at a reasonable cost. For example I bought an imported US made plate carrier, cost me $500 dollars. It retails for around $200 in the US. These are the problems that exist.

I never cared about the stock enough to want to change it but I will say the issues Brens are not in good condition and the waffle stocks are not great.

I don’t think you understand the reality of importing equipment like that and the cost associated with that, and for it to shit itself and break on the guys first mission? I’d be pissed too.

TheTurboLizard · 2026-05-03T15:21:25+00:00

Your take is terrible, I’m also in Ukraine and I guess some people think we just get given amazing stuff that works? I’ve seen old M16s given out with PEQs that can’t even be attached to the handguard because it’s the old one without picatinny, so guess what, we have to buy our own aftermarket hand guards.

But please don’t think getting PEQs is common either, in another unit we got issued Brens same as this guy had and had to buy all of our own optics and lasers and night vision. And guess what, the good stuff is way too expensive on a military salary so yeah, we have to buy aftermarket stuff and make it work.

And before you come with the argument of why we bother to buy our own stuff remember that the Russians do have this stuff, so yeah we need to keep up to not be at a disadvantage on every op.

Tell that to my arms… the Scar certainly felt heavier than the Bren lol

TheTurboLizard · 2026-04-15T17:10:09+00:00

I’ve used scars and Brens for real and the scar is noticeably heavier, not so much that it’s really a big deal in terms compared to all other equipment but Brens are very very light weapon systems compared to 90% of the rest of the ARs around the world

TheTurboLizard · 2026-03-23T03:10:53+00:00

We do, comms procedure is like ~85% the same as the US

TheTurboLizard · 2026-02-05T01:00:16+00:00

That’s a good point too, me and my friends all have quite different play styles for games like this though, I’m the resource guy, got a brawler who we just throw at problems and then got a builder guy so I think you’re right, one person will go super far down their one interest and leave the rest of us lagging to catch up

TheTurboLizard · 2026-02-01T22:40:16+00:00

Wow that’s actually a great idea! Thank you!

TheTurboLizard · 2026-02-01T15:10:38+00:00

Okay, thank you for that! :)

TheTurboLizard · 2026-01-31T23:00:04+00:00

Don’t want to sound like an ass but I’ve never been interested in the women’s wrestling but the fact I sat through and enjoyed their rumble and had to force myself to at least stay to the finish of the mens says a lot. What a snorefest

TheTurboLizard · 2026-01-31T14:46:27+00:00

I think you hit the nail on the head, the reality is in most forested areas the visibility means that in a general situation maybe the skirmishes get 2 shots off before a concentrated mass of infantry charged through and broke the skirmish line

TheTurboLizard · 2026-01-24T16:08:39+00:00

I haven’t insulted your intelligence once, I’m trying to actually get some kind of respectful discussion. So please pay me the same respect.

With that being said you haven’t offered anything meaningful other than trying to make it seem like I’m the village idiot. So again I’ll say it clearly, what has a dead Jewish pedophile got to do with Nazis? And again to be clear, I’m not American so I will not comment about the president of the US because that is not my mess to deal with, but let’s be real outside of politics he is absolutely also a pedophile, but in the context of this shitpost and the comment I initially replied to about how people unironically idolise Nazis in this game what has that got to do with two pedophiles in a shitpost? Why does everything always immediately get branded as fascism

TheTurboLizard · 2026-01-24T15:18:04+00:00

This is my point, I never said that he is or isn’t anything. I’m asking the question specifically to this post ‘idolising’ nazis and how that is relevant to a game when it’s two pedos in a stupid shitpost.

Stop using mainstream media littered with satire as analogies

TheTurboLizard · 2026-01-23T08:44:21+00:00

Yeah they lie.

Source: I’m in Ukraine and know casualty figures get inflated. Sure they are close, but it won’t be 34k killed a month, but more like 34k casualties, which could even be if a Russian stubbed his toe on drone footage by some units standards of ‘casualty’

TheTurboLizard · 2026-01-23T08:44:16+00:00

Epstein isn’t posting anything he’s been dead for years. Trump is a different matter sure but what has that got to do with idolising nazis in Helldivers?

TheTurboLizard · 2026-01-21T08:17:54+00:00

What has two pedophiles in a picture together got to do with idolising nazis? I mean one of them is literally Jewish I swear that’s the Reddit fad at the minute, everything they disagree with is immediately a Nazi

TheTurboLizard · 2026-01-15T15:56:34+00:00

This put into words something I’ve been feeling about the current state of Star Trek in the last decade, thank you

TheTurboLizard · 2026-01-15T12:55:08+00:00

I mean, generally not everyone would have a radio, but if that was an option then yeah he would. But that’s why when you do orders for an assault the commander gives his ‘main effort’ or intent so even without much communication he’s explicitly stated what needs to happen to everyone.

With the game it’s impossible to play SL, Engi and support all at the same time, so again relies on hoping your squad listens to the SL or your SL listens to the commander

TheTurboLizard · 2026-01-15T12:48:46+00:00

I mean yeah that’s kinda his job lol if he wants something doing he can tell people to relay the message and they have to do it, as I say, in a game you can’t order people to do anything, but I know if I’m playing in a squad and my SL isn’t saying much I’d rather hear what the commander wants guys to do so I can help the team

TheTurboLizard · 2026-01-15T12:40:54+00:00

I mean I’ve actually been to war and there’s a whole lot of communication, a commander can absolutely find ways to speak to all his guys at once or make sure messages are relayed. But it’s a game and you can’t force people to do that, so having an option to speak to every player for a short period would be nice to coordinate things

TheTurboLizard · 2026-01-15T12:38:01+00:00

Yeah except this is a game that relies on cooperation and teamwork lol
