These are a bunch of things that I'm not supposed to do when playing Helldivers. Some of this stuff I've done, some of it I've not done, some of it I will never do. Hell, I'm not even sure some of this is possible.

The list is intended for entertainment purposes. Don't do this stuff to your friends (maybe). Doing this stuff to strangers in public servers is treason.

Have fun, have a laugh, and for Liberty's sake don't take any of this seriously. :)
The List
  1. Not allowed to try and use Bile Titans as a mount
  2. Treason is not in the eye of the beholder, and I am not to act as judge, jury, and especially not executioner.
  3. After last time, I am to inform the rest of the squad before calling down/arming/thinking about Hellbombs.
  4. If anything I'm doing causes me to audibly giggle over voice chat, I am to stop what I am doing, go prone and remain there until someone comes to fix whatever it was I just did.
  5. Refusing to return my hug does not represent 'an unacceptable lack of patriotism', and in either case, calling in the 500kg was overkill.
  6. I am not allowed to pretend the Exosuit is possessed by the ghost of Macho Man Randy Savage
  7. Yes, the automatons look a bit like terminators. That doesn't mean I need to ask every single one for my clothes, boots and motorcycle back.
  8. Bravely calling down an airstrike on my own position should be a tactic of last resort, not my primary strategy.
  9. Shouting 'P U S S Y I N B I O' at the automatons was funny the first time. Less so the next 400 times.
  10. No longer allowed to try and 'Dr Strangelove' the ICBM.
  11. The expression "One shot, one kill" with the anti-material rifle should not be reflected in my end-of-round stats.
  12. The game is 'rock, paper, scissors'. Using a Breaker is considered cheating.
  13. Dropping anti-personnel mines at the point as the extraction shuttle is landing is definitely treason.
  14. I am not allowed to try and take down a charger in hand-to-hand combat.
  15. Attaching an orbital barrage beacon to myself and running into the heavy bug nest shows admirable bravery, but is not a good use of mission resources.
  16. The above also applies to attaching said beacon to squadmates.
  17. Cannot veto the use of explosive stratagems just because I'm hungover.
  18. I am not allowed to try and carry explosive barrels onto the extraction shuttle.
  19. 'Stratagem tag' isn't a real game, and even if it was, I am to inform teammates before starting a game.
  20. The above applies double to hellpods.
  21. Holding 'contests' to see whose ragdoll flies the furthest from the hellbomb explosion must only be done with the consent of teammates.
  22. I am not allowed to advocate for 'Managed Communism' whilst on a mission.
  23. In addition to the above, adding '-ski' to the end of every other word and finishing every sentence with 'Comrade' is not 'basically speaking Russian'.
  24. The Breaker Spray 'n' Pray does not actually require prayer to function.
  25. Not allowed to troll the French player by repeatedly trying to surrender to the bugs.
  26. I am limited to a maximum of two Ron Burgundy quotes per game session.
  27. Not allowed to try and shut down the enemy hulk by trying to trick it into dividing by zero.
  28. Our team does not consist of me, 'primary human shield, 'backup human shield' and 'acceptable casualty #3'.
  29. I am not to play dodgeball with the grenade launcher.
  30. There is an upper limit to the number of times people will believe that I 'accidentally' knocked someone over as they were about to throw their airstrike stratagem.
  31. If in doubt, I am to assume that exosuits are not amphibious.
  32. Not allowed to try and commandeer the annihilator tank.
  33. Yodelling is considered treason.
  34. 'Shoot first, ask questions later' does not apply to discussions about the next objective.
  35. The mission timer is an upper limit, not a goal.
  36. Not allowed to troll the cadet player by telling them to stand under the Tesla Tower to stay safe.
  37. I am allowed to sing the EDF song exactly once per calendar month.
  38. The Spear is, despite the name, not designed to be used within melee range.
  39. I am not to try and use the flamethrower to keep teammates warm on cold weather planets.
  40. Not allowed to tell the player that brought the mortar sentry that he can turn off friendly fire by pressing Alt+F4
  41. Not allowed to try and blow up the extraction shuttle 'for the insurance money'.
  42. Not allowed to keep dropping prone and screaming like in Platoon every time we play Malevolon Creek.
  43. The Terminid threat will not respond to 'a firm telling off'.
  44. Double-tapping enemies is not necessary. Double-tapping them with the Eagle is ridiculous.
  45. The expression 'it is better to ask forgiveness than permission' does not apply to the 380mm Orbital Barrage.
  46. Not allowed to try and 'stack' exosuits to make a Megazord.
  47. Diving onto a grenade to save a teammate is only valiant if I wasn't the one that threw the grenade.
  48. Not allowed to wear the armour that makes me look like a Stormtrooper and constantly ask whether 'these are the droids I'm looking for' while on Automaton missions.
  49. I am not to refer to Super Earth as 'Space Texas'.
  50. I am not allowed to use stratagems to 'enhance' the explosive handshake emote.

#70 it is not ok to hijack the mech and claim, "it was unfair that we are the only team with helldivers," and begin to shoot my hellsquad.

69. I am forbidden from ever having a C0-1 permit approved, due to an accident that gave me the name 'Baby Basher' while holding the Terminid Larva.

67. Calling in supply stratagems on top of afk teammates isn't a method of making sure they have ammo when they get back

66. Squid Juice is not for my own consumption

65. The flamethrower is not to be used to burn the corpses of fellow Helldivers for "Democratic Steak", "Libercue", or "Smoked Justice Jerky"

64. Despite testing (with multiple casualties), the constitution bayonet does not allow the weapon to be used as a lightsaber

63. I am not allowed to steal the bugs queen for reasons.
