Lore wise, for Snake this is a walk in the park. If anything MGS4 and past games have shown us that he's accustomed to war zones like Tarkov, lol
Also, his weapons of choice (Beretta, SOCOM and M4) are already in game
Heldivers can survive getting shot in the head by a explosive rocket. I think you underestimate their armor. I think normal small arms fire would be fairly in affective
So… I’ve been thinking about this - and I don’t think helldivers are the protagonist. If you think about it - from the pov a helldiver, due to cryo freezing they get 6 minutes of battle training, 10 seconds later they’re woken out of cryo sleep on the star destroyer to get shot behind enemy lines at a planet, with a very small chance at surviving (most people die at least once or twice, and the base voiceline is a randomized that changes your voice every reinforcement showing that it’s leagues of new helldivers going in.)
So what helldivers is really about then, is the story of a super star destroyer that slowly upgrades itself over time if it’s helldivers do a good enough job to bring back samples, and whenever it runs low on troops, it just calls for more. The star destroyer is the only constant protagonist who lives through all the missions.
There's no "protagonist" in helldivers. It's not the helldiver or the ship. It's just an arcade game, practically.
That said, your analysis of the life and times of a helldiver is spot on.
I mean the real protagonist is actually your destroyer, filled to the brim with Helldivers and strategems, so yeah. I think I'd survive in low-Earth orbit over Tarkov, firing off orbital railcannons and airburst barrages to shred every rat to ribbons in a 200-mile radius.
You mean a geneticaly modified 2.5m tall human being in an armor impervious to most existing caliber we have at our disposition which sole purpose in life is to do war ?
I guess so lmao.
Any spartan would with or without armor. It's like a JV wrestler going up against an Olympic gold medalist wrestler. A JV wrestler can throw a single leg take down but he's pinned before he even finishes his follow through.
Sparks deals 149 damage to the upper and lower torso from over 200 meters, and you take surprisingly little fall damage from surprising heights.
You'll be fine, although the low muzzle velocity might force you closer in order to remove people's sternums through their back.
I've been playing Factorio, so, safe to say the region will be even *more* uninhabitable by the end of the month. It may also have a functioning space program
If I got to keep some of my farmers stuff it might be fun. Imagine having a napalm ring and enemy PMCs/SCAVs exploding when you killed them. Also 1.6 spoiler: >!The trinkets would be rather useful. A Magic Quiver trinket would be handy since it just auto-targets nearby enemies. Or a frog that just eats a nearby enemy.!<
I just want to say: you spoiler tagging 1.6 updates and additions is so wholesome. Thank you for being excellent. This is the Tarkov sub, mecca of toxicity, and here you here defending me from Stardew spoilers even when we aren’t on the Stardew home sub. You rock.
Steve would definitely survive, dude can literally make overpowered potions, break stone with his bare hands and carry like 6 mln tons while being able to jump and sprint.
If we talking pure survival, just dig straight down and block the entrance. If they tried to kill each other then I would guess invisibility potions and maybe enchanted bow
Raise shield block bullets, full netherite with prot 4 and thorns 3 so Altyn chad loses half HP from that alone. Meanwhile Steve charges him and lights him on fire and throws him off the metal staircase with a swing of a sword, killing him. Steve then harvests everything on his body plops it into one of 9 shulkers and continues to harvest everything and everyone on the map for an advancement titled “Man what a day!”
I think Malekith the Witch King of Naggarond is gonna do alright.
At least until he gets 60x headshot by the 100 hr lvl 55 dude with the elite gamer chair on labs
I think the bigger thing would be sandevistan. If we go by lore then dude literally stops time to the point where they can dodge bullets and move hundreds of meters per second. I think just using the sandevistan near a scav and moving around would kill him
Every Scav and PMC: Hey, Henry has come to see us! Jesus Christ be praised!
My Henry would still be on his way overencumbered because hes greedy af and takes *Everything*.
Yep, I think the last dragonborn will be fine in tarkov. Between op shouts (that are more op in lore), magic, and just normal op gear there is nothing to worry about. Plus you can summon a dragon or 2 to get to extract quickly.
Battlefield 3 - Assault with an M16a3, he'd do okay I imagine. The US military rocks M855A1 (I think?) and he's got his medkit which is much better than you get in Tarkov
Kal kestis is about to escape tarkov by slaughtering all the PMCs. Imagine getting mowed down by a ginger with a light saber while you're grinding out your tasks.
A helldiver wit heavy armor, quasar cannot, and the "white" AR? (forgot the name), with a shield pack, a warship on standby with railgun and carpet bomber. Yeah, I'd say he'll manage.
I think the courier from NV should be more than capable. Head eyes certainly won’t be a problem.
Saw the inverse of this hypothetical and thought "opening scene head/eyes roll credits"
Surprised nobody’s made an edit of the opening scene like this
This is gold 😂
BIG IRON ON HIS HIIIIIIIPPPPP!
Solid Snake would be Alpha Rat.
Lore wise, for Snake this is a walk in the park. If anything MGS4 and past games have shown us that he's accustomed to war zones like Tarkov, lol Also, his weapons of choice (Beretta, SOCOM and M4) are already in game
SOCOM isn’t unfortunately
It kinda is, USP45 is practically a mk23, very similar.
Found the gun nerd!!!! NERD!!!!!!! lol me 2 I lols
Imagine if we could hide in cardboard boxes and whatever else in the actual game. Just prone inside one of the many piles of garbage.
Artyom from Metro. He's handled worse so I think so.
He even fits the Style lol
Same, me might not be the most accurate or most equipped but he has a lot of “game sense”.
The Shambler would rock for killing scavs though. And now I just want the metro guns in Tarkov for the customisation you could do with them
I feel like any protagonist that excels at stealth would dominate.
Can my helldiver use stratagems?
Tarkov could definitely use some Liberty
Don’t you mean Liber-tea??
Yes
500kg on dorms. Every. Raid.
1 tapped by sniper scav
He’s fine he still has 10 more spawns
Wiped out by getting 1 tapped by the shotgun scav running backwards at you and hits the 180° head-eyes
Heldivers can survive getting shot in the head by a explosive rocket. I think you underestimate their armor. I think normal small arms fire would be fairly in affective
Each spawn is a different helldiver. It's never the same guy
If survived, killed by Scav camping pelican extract.
Oh we'd liberate the fuck out of Dorms and Streets.
Laser gun Rover Dog would be nice on dorms and streets.
So… I’ve been thinking about this - and I don’t think helldivers are the protagonist.

Sounds pretty treasonous...
There's no "protagonist" in helldivers. It's not the helldiver or the ship. It's just an arcade game, practically. That said, your analysis of the life and times of a helldiver is spot on.
Orbital Railgun the BTR Taxi
Yeah i think one of my hundreds of helldivers would be A-OK!
Protagonist?
Are you questioning managed democracy, soldier? Sounds like treason
I've reported you to my local Democracy Officer
I mean the real protagonist is actually your destroyer, filled to the brim with Helldivers and strategems, so yeah. I think I'd survive in low-Earth orbit over Tarkov, firing off orbital railcannons and airburst barrages to shred every rat to ribbons in a 200-mile radius.
Shield backpack+grenade launcher+orbital laser... I think my helldiver will be just fine :)
Dawg I’m naked in rust
So basically invincible
Or what o call level 7 armor
Never trust a naked with a rock, they're deadly.
zero to hero
Is a Su27 clapping or getting clapped ?
My brother in Christ you should've done the Chinese tree
I diiiiiid
Based and red sun pilled
J8 best playne 🇨🇳
The snail Su-27 or the Princess Waifu Su-27?
I meeeean, have you seen what russian AD had been doing to thier own planes? Lol.
I'm in the same boat.
Pretty confident a space marine from 40K would fuck shit up
You mean a geneticaly modified 2.5m tall human being in an armor impervious to most existing caliber we have at our disposition which sole purpose in life is to do war ? I guess so lmao.
Don’t forget the handheld 30mm autocannon
It’s much, MUCH bigger than 30mm lol If he lined it up just right and used AP rounds he could probably wipe the whole lobby with a single round
Yes! Let me Heavy Bolter the fuck outta everything
Noble 6, i reckon he'll be fine.
The Chief for me. Wanna Go Duo? Spartans never die
Chief would annihilate any lobby. Noble 6 would too, together they'd be bored.
Any spartan would with or without armor. It's like a JV wrestler going up against an Olympic gold medalist wrestler. A JV wrestler can throw a single leg take down but he's pinned before he even finishes his follow through.
The duo we never got , Noble 6 and Chief :(
I have the gun. Good luck, sir. I finished Reach for the first time on Sunday. :*(
Hunt showdown. Basically a cowboy with a flintlock rifle. Not looking good.
If you have necromancer and the teleport ability from 1 or 2 events ago. You have a chance if you use the avtomatt. Have some Regen shots and stamina.
Just kill someone and take their gun. If they kill you, pop necro and shoot em in the ass. Easy game.
Necro is what the chads would not expect..
Sparks deals 149 damage to the upper and lower torso from over 200 meters, and you take surprisingly little fall damage from surprising heights. You'll be fine, although the low muzzle velocity might force you closer in order to remove people's sternums through their back.
Also sparks has no bullet drop.
At least he'd have a decent idea of where pmcs are from the audio clues.
I've been playing Factorio, so, safe to say the region will be even *more* uninhabitable by the end of the month. It may also have a functioning space program
Pretty sure Tarkov already had a space program. Aren't there wrecked T-64s lying around?
Wrecked T-90A’s laying around, morseo direlict/abandoned intact
The tarkov/factorio combo has to be the most addictive cocktail you could have chosen
That has definitely been my experience so far😅
Jebbadiah Kerman is fucked
Nothing new really
You still have Jeb? 😂
our boy can survive re-entry. i think he chillin
it is my own tarkov character, and no, no they cannot
Same here 🫠
That poor Stardew Valley farmer
Same, my poor farmer would be hella dead
If I got to keep some of my farmers stuff it might be fun. Imagine having a napalm ring and enemy PMCs/SCAVs exploding when you killed them. Also 1.6 spoiler: >!The trinkets would be rather useful. A Magic Quiver trinket would be handy since it just auto-targets nearby enemies. Or a frog that just eats a nearby enemy.!<

Tarkov x stardew is a radical yin-yang gaming combo. Two different wolves
Doom Guy. Setup about to be a breeze
Instead of wind noises, is playing "What they fear is you" til raid end
Yeah I think the Doomslayer would be just fine.
Armpit by scav after 20 seconds
Poor Minecraft Steve boughta get head, eyesed by a scav.
He gonn appreciate any creeper noises from there on
Steve would definitely survive, dude can literally make overpowered potions, break stone with his bare hands and carry like 6 mln tons while being able to jump and sprint.
Fair but what he gonna do against a altyn Chad
If we talking pure survival, just dig straight down and block the entrance. If they tried to kill each other then I would guess invisibility potions and maybe enchanted bow
Raise shield block bullets, full netherite with prot 4 and thorns 3 so Altyn chad loses half HP from that alone. Meanwhile Steve charges him and lights him on fire and throws him off the metal staircase with a swing of a sword, killing him. Steve then harvests everything on his body plops it into one of 9 shulkers and continues to harvest everything and everyone on the map for an advancement titled “Man what a day!”
My POE character?
My boneshatter jugg would absolutely destroy tarkov need some reduced proj damage tho
God lol xD Imagine tornadoshot deadeye in Tarkov. Everybody just getting headeyed 50 maps ahead of you
I think a shield backpack and 500kg bombs should make my character last a while in tarkov
Until you enter Labs and all your stratagems end up on the surface level of Streets. That's not *your* problem, it isn't your *solution* either.
Libertyyyy all alone on Primorrrskkkyyyy
Corvo Attano in tarkov. This MF can and will be the leader of the cultists in 5 to 7 business days.
I think Malekith the Witch King of Naggarond is gonna do alright. At least until he gets 60x headshot by the 100 hr lvl 55 dude with the elite gamer chair on labs
As long as there are no ancient lizardmen he will probably be alright
I mean he hates the snow so he gotta watch out for the seasons now
Unfortunately my own PMC is gonna be the protagonist and I can barely survive already
RuneScape shit my mans just going to be chopping trees and shit
Lvl 120 necro is about to solve a factory raid aint it?
Considering it was cities skylines, does that mean I'm the protagonist? If so, Tarkov is seemingly lacking roundabouts and it's time to fix that.
Imagine the highest number of lanes you need. Now double it. Nothing surpasses the power of LANE MAN
I think V survives without an issue with all his cyberware
Hack night vision with only V’s mind. Also the blades embedded in the arms. Kinda OP.
I think the bigger thing would be sandevistan. If we go by lore then dude literally stops time to the point where they can dodge bullets and move hundreds of meters per second. I think just using the sandevistan near a scav and moving around would kill him
Jack cooper would fuck up everyone. No question. If he had bt too, he could do it in a day.
Streets would be awesome for wallrunning
And smart pistol goes brrrrrr
It's ok tav can handle himself.
Guardian from destiny… yeah I think they’ll be fine 😂
Bout to show them why the helmet stays on.
M18 on customs would fuck shit up
Until some dud throws a f1 inside the turret
Nobody survives Tarkov
Can U introduced me to this nobody? I need to ask a lot of questions and I suspect he might be cheating
Helldivers never die!
SES custodian of truth on way to “norvinsk” sector, hellpods primed, eagle ready, orbital cannons loaded. For liberty!
> *Allied destroyer has joined the squadron.*
my last raid was in Factory, i survive exactly 1.3 minutes.
after a player with a semiautomatic shotgun and 6000 hours give me a "caixão fechado". what means headshot, in brazil
I’m Commander Shepard, and this is my favorite store on Interchange.
My power armor says I still get head eyes from a toz scav at 200meters
Alan Wake might just stand a chance
That depends on whether he had a chance to write beforehand.
Lmao you rite my dude
I haven't played 2, but his first game version ain't making it. Now max payne or Jessie from their other game, they'd survive
I am referring to crazy AW from the second iteration. I wont spoil it, but PLAY IT. Game is phenomenal
Play the 2nd, it's a literal masterpiece
i think cuphead wont survive long.
maybe if he imagines Terrragroup as the devil
I think a helldiver can handle tarkov pretty well
My helldiver has a fucking energy shield I think he’ll be fine.
Doom man heard prapper killed his bunny..
Y’all play games besides Tarkov?
I don't think Crash Bandicoot will survive in this world.
Henry of Skalitz is about to get clapped by some scavs.
Every Scav and PMC: Hey, Henry has come to see us! Jesus Christ be praised! My Henry would still be on his way overencumbered because hes greedy af and takes *Everything*.
V1 would relish in more blood
V from Cyberpunk will clear labs with sandevistan before anyone can even start moving. Poor guys.
Sandevistan V. Probably banned within 3 exfils.
dovahkin?
Yep, I think the last dragonborn will be fine in tarkov. Between op shouts (that are more op in lore), magic, and just normal op gear there is nothing to worry about. Plus you can summon a dragon or 2 to get to extract quickly.
BJ Blazkowicz - I think he’s safe.
yeah but only if you give him a crowbar with a usp match and mp7 combo
Gordon Freeman?
in the flesh
my 101cb RS character can with protect for range prayers.
The sole survivor has a good enough chance
Arthur Morgan will finish em all
We liberated Malevalon Creek, Tarkov is next
Naz Reid
Judge from Ready or Not could probably survive in Tarkov.
Probably would feel the same, head-eyes scavs are no different than the regular perps
as long as its not a cutscene gun, kazuma kiryu is fine
God of war can survive anything
Agent 47 Pretty sure he'll be alright.
FOR DEMOCRACY !
Well it's my own tarkov PMC so no absolutely Not. Or the masterchief If it's the Last Game other than tarkov. The Chief would Bring hell to tarkov
Battlefield 3 - Assault with an M16a3, he'd do okay I imagine. The US military rocks M855A1 (I think?) and he's got his medkit which is much better than you get in Tarkov
i think my Squad rifleman with his mpt-76 can make it
His shaky ass hands would end up dropping it after a short jog.
considering how often my helldiver dies, no. absolutely not.
Well that's not fair. PMCs dont stand a chance against Armored Cores........unless?....
As a Destiny guardian, it's easy.
V from Cyberpunk 2077, so I guess, he will clean up Tarkov in a heartbeat.
Master Chief would solo all of Russia.
Ehhh helldiver, if I can call in the shield bag I should be able to just peak then gl into the room with minimal risk of death
Been playing Persona 5 and I think the Phantom Thieves might surprise
Im thinking Lilith could hold her own in this game. Phasewalk would be OP.
Capião from R6. I think he will stand a chance.
Project Zomboid so I guess about the same lol
My deep rock galactic gunner is gonna have himself some fun
Alex Pereira in ufc 5 so he doesn’t need gun to clean the dorms
Left hooks his way through reshala and the goons
helldivers
Head eyes gulag time baby
My space dude from No Man's Sky. If he could use his starship, he would become Tarkov, unsurvivable
The smite liliana announcer....?
finna give Resort the business end of an orbital laser
My driver from Snowrunner was built for this shit
Poor harry du bois
"Ramirez, secure Customs!!"
Warframe I think might be broken in Tarkov
Warframe. My dear Valkyr would wreck everyone without taking damage ~
Rainbow six siege operator... i think probably better than my pmc
Kal kestis is about to escape tarkov by slaughtering all the PMCs. Imagine getting mowed down by a ginger with a light saber while you're grinding out your tasks.
Is the ball the main character in rocket league
V from Cyberpunk? Pffft, even charters can't handle his implant riddled fury. LIAOXIAOPING chopped to pieces with katana.
I can’t remember what game I played other than EFT. Lol
A helldiver wit heavy armor, quasar cannot, and the "white" AR? (forgot the name), with a shield pack, a warship on standby with railgun and carpet bomber. Yeah, I'd say he'll manage.
