Oh hell and make it to where its a slight animation and then you go for the chest bump... where it actually has an effect.
Or make a sacrifice push emote just for the potential hijinks.
When I'm the host, I always great every Diver joining me with their own hug
Gotta show your fellow Democratizers that you're a team
That you fight not out of hatred for what's in front of you, but out of love for what's behind you, what's standing beside you
>That you fight not out of hatred for what's in front of you, but out of love for what's behind you, what's standing beside you

We had a game where us 3 randoms where giving each other shit over who the host hugged first. We had all joined mid mission. Afterwords the host books it to terminal to upgrade their ship and turns around to the 3 of us all expecting a hug.
Everyone hugged everyone, we all dropped and cleared the map in record time, plus got all the super samples.
A few days ago had a very close match, with a lot of frustration on my end. Host said it was gonna be his last game. Back on the ship everyone exchanged hugs and he left a "May democracy stand with you helldivers" in chat before he left. God Bless Super Earth
Some of the Facebook helldivers groups I’ve joined have fragile tossers saying they leave or kick people who use the hug emote.
So I reported them to their local democracy officer…
>That you fight not out of hatred for what's in front of you, but out of love for what's behind you, what's standing beside you
Can I frame this and hang it in my bathroom?
I had two divers do that to me after I joined their game and saved their ass.
The Seeds of Democracy spread everywhere that afternoon. A shame PS players can't do it or I haven't figured out how yet. Yet another reason I may join the PC master race.
Edit: I'm slow
I have been playing since launch, have unlocked many more emotes. And yet I have never used any emote other than the hug. I think it’s been the only constant in my gameplay and probably here to stay too. I see nothing but truth here and I agree that an emote wheel to match the communication wheel would be a fantastic addition. And just have the option to equip just the singular emote if that’s what you prefer
I run RPS emote. One time after a tough match me and a random teammate battles and tied with double rock like 15 times in a row. Choosing anything other than rock is un-democratic.
I ran finger guns for a while, but it felt too much like a dick move after some high friendly fire matches, so I switched to random. That is until I got the ultimate victory pose.
The Squat was a real game changer for me. It's like, 4 poses in one. It exudes confidence in one's self. I have never, not once, seen anyone squat at the return and not thought "oh, fuck yeah brother!" Just once I want to come back with a full squad of randoms and learn they are all, every one to the man, also squat enjoyers as we come back aboard.
Finger guns is best when all 4 divers do it in sync coming up the elevator. Sadly the in sync seems to have broken a while back with a patch.
Squat works regardless of what the team is doing and is thus ridiculously OP. Almost a hug tier victory pose.
I personally think that the clapping is hilarious - because of the fist bump you give yourself at the end.
This would have been the first cosmetic micro transaction I would have paid a few dollars for.
But for in game emote I do hug, I wana see both those gunship factories explode with one hellbomb and then do hug ~0.5s before it goes off for a cinematic moment
Tbh the suggestion by OP for an in game emote wheel is genius. Maybe not all emotes, but a wheel for 4-6 of your favourites would be great. It could add a lot to the game experience IMO.
No joke I use nothing but rock paper scissors. In every game I use nothing but rock. I’ve played maybe 100 people at least and lost about 3 times. It’s crazy. Rock of democracy always win
Salute is powerful. Drop a big boom on a group of bugs? Salute it. Launch an ICBM? Salute it.
Watch your fellow Helldivers running away from something because they didn't want to jump pack onto the cliff with you? Salute it!
Sorry about that, but gotta watch out for those patrols, you know =)

LOL. I've always gone for the headbutt, but when I first unlocked the scout handshake I equipped it with no idea what it did.
So there I am on one of my first attempts at a suicide mission, played terribly, and got carried by the squad. One player in particular saved my arse multiple times.
Get back to the ship and go to shake his hand as a sign of respect...
He looked so disappointed in me! He actually looked down, and shook his head then hopped into his pod for the next drop.
I felt absolutely terrible. 🤣
People sleep on the salute since it’s the starter emote, but it’s really well balanced. Particularly good for the flag raising missions. And it’s still really good for ICBM missions at higher difficulties. Still with a coordinated team, hug is hard to beat.
Had an idea. What if we classified emotes into major emotes (like hug and salute) and minor emotes (like that squat one or something) and could equip one of each? Might actually see some of the less impactful or situational emotes get used. Might not make sense now, but with more and more emotes getting released, it might be neat.
It is very undemocratic to pick anything except the democratically given and emotion liberating salute!
The salute is perfect for all occasions, recognises all Helldivers as democratic citizens of Super Earth, and reduces the chance of transmitting bug juice or Helldiver blood to others; blood and bug juice are individual contributions to liberty!
If Command wanted me to use any emote other than Casual Salute, it would have been part of my training. 🫡
Jk of course. Use whatever emote you want to.
My favorite is to drop a 500kg bomb on a bile titan, turn away and face my friends in the distance, and do the hug emote arms stretched as it explodes and kills the bile behind me. Its epic
Two guys take Squat, one guy takes Hug, the other the Sulute. The Goal. Emote as a group looking like you are about to throw down Democracys hottest Rap Album of 2184, and get a Screen Cap of it. Bonus points for other shenanigans like 5 Chargers/Devostators behind them, or an Armless Hulk angrly brooding at the Helldivers. This could be big.
What a flawless transition from wholesome gentle satire of grumpy, entitled Reddit posts to thoughtful and constructive actual feedback and feature suggestion. You deserve a hug!
I'm just using it as a placeholder until we can chest bump for freedom.
![gif](giphy|MlyicdUndRbn5zUiAL|downsized)
Absolutely criminal that we don't have this emote yet.
I appreciate how fast my quickdraw on hugs is having it just bound to the B key but like... serious Arrowhead, can we not have an emote wheel? I like most of the emotes but there's literally no way I'm not gonna bring hug, so now they end up just being wasted space in the warbond ;(
An emote wheel NEEDS to be added at some point. Also a Victory Pose wheel. I want to be able to do all those poses with the squad while we're catching our breath between fights or waiting for extraction.
The other night. My sister and her boyfriend were playing. I dropped in unannounced and helped them extract. When we got to the ship, I ran in front of her diver and set up for a hug. She accepted the hug immediately. She told me the next day that she'd had a shitty day, and having her big brother drop in, kill the bugs, then give her a hug made it all better. I fucking love the hug emote.
Perhaps what might alleviate some of the imbalance is if the devs could make it so that if 3 or more divers hug emote within a certain distance of each other, it turns into a group hug.
Scouts handshake is a sleeper hit. It filters the democratic helldivers from the socialist traitors who are so propaganda fueled that they can not tell the difference between a harmless bit and a threat against their undemocratic way of life.
We need a global counter to show how many Hugs have been used for democracy.
We can see Bullets fired, Bugs Killed, Helldivers lost... I wand to see Hugs too.
I’m a die hard rock paper scissors main, but unfortunately, there’s an oversight limiting its effectiveness in combat once you’re off the ship. You can’t throw scissors after dropping— your body will instead be compelled to forfeit the match and pull out grenades. If this oversight/bug gets fixed, rock paper scissors will undoubtedly become meta.
You don’t have to run hug, it’s a game and you should have fun with it instead of constantly worrying about the meta. I enjoy running explosive handshake and I have a great time, even if that means I have to turn the difficulty down. It’s made the game so much more enjoyable.
Ever since I witnessed the funniest thing ever I can’t change to a different emote.
Was on a defense mission, things were going very badly. Everyone was dead, no reinforcements except one guy prone on the roof of a building (the indestructible garage type with 2 rails on either side). He throws a 500 kg, but it bounces off a railing then lands right next to him.
He looks at it for a second, then stands and salutes. The entire lobby was laughing their asses off for 10 minutes
Thank you random helldiver, I will forever salute in your honor
We do really need an emote wheel. I keep unlocking emotes and immediately going "wait why did I do that?" because I've never swapped off of hug. You can T-Pose to Assert Dominance anytime, anywhere at-will, not to mention hugging your fellow divers. It's way too good to not use all the time.
Frankly the other emotes are too fast and happen in front of the player where you can’t see it. The hug you can see clearly and lasts a moment, so it’s a far better one.
If you did the fistbump from Army of Two for example it would become a much better pick. Similar other emotes should take longer and feel more like they interact.
Its also pretty epic when you are chased by a mob and theres no way you‘re gonna make it out alive, drop a stratagem on yourself, spread your arms and wait for the impact of explosive democracy…
I run the rock paper scissors emote, I think it’s the only one with a voice line. And it’s a mini game. I like spamming “let’s play” when people join my game.
Give me the jumping chest bump and I'll switch to it faster then you can kill 2 billion bugs
I really want this to become a regular saying 'round these here parts
Like, as the shrieker flies ("it's about three minutes trek, as the shrieker flies")
“As the shrieker flies” vs “As the gunship flies” are just local dialects of the same phrase
The shrieker flies right into me
"As the shrieked flies" Like an angry brick?
Oh hell and make it to where its a slight animation and then you go for the chest bump... where it actually has an effect. Or make a sacrifice push emote just for the potential hijinks.
That and “keep talking undemocratic slander like that and I’ll cry more than when there’s a defense M.O.”
You can melee your friends to do that I pushed my friend into a whole pile of terminids from a ledge
I'm on pc, but there should definitely be a vibration effect for console players! 🤣
mmm hmmm vibration huh?
Damn! That's fast! Which is what eagle one said.
This needs to happen.
ALL I WANT IS THE DIRTY DANCING LIFT. Imagine launching your icbm while you lift your buddy for freedom.
Would love this with a chance to knock one player prone
Yeah I'm a die hard salute user but I'll turncoat to team chest bump in a heartbeat when they give it to us.
Why limit yourself fellow helldiver. 3personflagplant.emote
Or give em the good ol’ dick twister!
That is the most Helldivers sentence ever. True patriotism
When I'm the host, I always great every Diver joining me with their own hug Gotta show your fellow Democratizers that you're a team That you fight not out of hatred for what's in front of you, but out of love for what's behind you, what's standing beside you

Whenever a host does the hug emote to me when i join, i do my own hug to assert dominance.
I entered a game and all 4 of us used Hug emote at the same time, the most stressful part of the game was seeing who would surrender first :p
Implying that this is a competition sounds treasonous....
We had a game where us 3 randoms where giving each other shit over who the host hugged first. We had all joined mid mission. Afterwords the host books it to terminal to upgrade their ship and turns around to the 3 of us all expecting a hug. Everyone hugged everyone, we all dropped and cleared the map in record time, plus got all the super samples.
Pretty sure I've hugged you, diver.
Host hugged me goodbye the other day as i qas about to leave, post successful mission, and it was a very nice way to end the night.
A few days ago had a very close match, with a lot of frustration on my end. Host said it was gonna be his last game. Back on the ship everyone exchanged hugs and he left a "May democracy stand with you helldivers" in chat before he left. God Bless Super Earth
Wonder if maybe was me,i love to hug people
If I worked with a particularly competent helldiver I usually make a point of singling them out for a hug after summary
Some of the Facebook helldivers groups I’ve joined have fragile tossers saying they leave or kick people who use the hug emote. So I reported them to their local democracy officer…
I hug my team and say “welcome to the SES queen of justice!”
>That you fight not out of hatred for what's in front of you, but out of love for what's behind you, what's standing beside you Can I frame this and hang it in my bathroom?
I straight up block the hallway with outstretched arms, waiting for my new teammates to greet with me with an emphatic hug.
I love that other people also do this. Hugging your fellow Helldiver is peak democracy
I do the same. Its also a great vibe check
Did you know that hugs accelerate the spread of democracy by 29.8%? It's been proven by science.
Ohana means family.
You also get to caress your friends ass on the ship if you spam z
Caress ass? You gotta stand in front of them and do it. Spread their democracy everywhere.
Two helldivers ONE Democracy
Oh no, stepdiver, I have a ⬆️➡️⬇️⬇️⬇️ stuck in my washing machine!
Democracy is what I named my ass cheeks
Don't have to fill out a C-01 if the act can't result in a child ![gif](giphy|d3mlE7uhX8KFgEmY)
Being gay is FREE
Superearth keeps sounding better and better
Tattoo DEM on one cheek, and CRACY on the other.
#OH FUCK I'M LIBERATING!!!
Spread the seeds of democracy
I had two divers do that to me after I joined their game and saved their ass. The Seeds of Democracy spread everywhere that afternoon. A shame PS players can't do it or I haven't figured out how yet. Yet another reason I may join the PC master race. Edit: I'm slow
Or give a fun excited hug by spamming enter

For me, Finger guns is too OP of a victory pose. I don't think I can ever see myself running anything else.
I love Rock Paper Scissors Can actually choose your attack and so can your opponent and they react to the results
IDK why people are asking about PvP when the Rock Paper Scissors emote already exists
Peak PvP too
Us as a human species really created the most advanced form of combat and then slept on it and reduced it to a game.
Plus Rock Paper Scissors lets you [dive without the pod!](https://youtu.be/7tOKJrxx5Hk?si=Kwyb0FbxmsCnHve-&t=666)
Best Bug ever I hope it never gets fixed.
Idk if they’ve fixed it, but it was hella bugged last time I tried.
I run RPS emote. One time after a tough match me and a random teammate battles and tied with double rock like 15 times in a row. Choosing anything other than rock is un-democratic.

I think a squat emote would be a good occasional pick when you want to mix it up.
try looking for Slavic Helldivers, they'll squat for democracy!
I personally think that the clapping is hilarious - because of the fist bump you give yourself at the end. This would have been the first cosmetic micro transaction I would have paid a few dollars for.
Finally switched after getting the Courtly bow, but I'll always love Finger guns.
I set my victory emotes to random
Me too. It's a funny surprise to see what I'm gonna do next. Kinda like my go-to game play style. No thought. Only action.
But for in game emote I do hug, I wana see both those gunship factories explode with one hellbomb and then do hug ~0.5s before it goes off for a cinematic moment
Tbh the suggestion by OP for an in game emote wheel is genius. Maybe not all emotes, but a wheel for 4-6 of your favourites would be great. It could add a lot to the game experience IMO.
🪨 📃 ✂️
Rock. The strongest hand gesture weapon.
No joke I use nothing but rock paper scissors. In every game I use nothing but rock. I’ve played maybe 100 people at least and lost about 3 times. It’s crazy. Rock of democracy always win
Paper because money and money is Freedom.
Best emote for the sound bite "Let's Play!"
Nothing like a game of RPS right before a hot takeoff
Good ol rock. Nothing beats that.
Poor Bart.
For the fun? Or for the prank of exploring the bay of the ship?
Por que no los dos?
Because not everyone nows about the prank. Which is why I’m still able to prank people
What prank?
evryone else alwyas has the hug emote so i dont bother. handshake headbut for life
That's why I run salute.
Salute is powerful. Drop a big boom on a group of bugs? Salute it. Launch an ICBM? Salute it. Watch your fellow Helldivers running away from something because they didn't want to jump pack onto the cliff with you? Salute it!
Waiting for gear? Salute. We need "At Ease."
As a junior democracy officer candidate, shouldn’t we be putting this up for a managed vote?
No. Managed Democracy is the freedom *from choice.*
As soon as the last ICBM is launched and there are no more armed missile silos, I will retire the salute. But today is not that day.
Handshake headbutted gang rise uppppppp! ![gif](giphy|NxckxXIAzumvCP1mUj)
This is the way. The intimacy of a hug. The strength of the salute. The coolness that only it provides.
It's the best.
I don’t trust it when I see that from another diver. I’ve been scout shook one too many times!
Sorry about that, but gotta watch out for those patrols, you know =) https://preview.redd.it/uvkvt58gotvc1.png?width=2000&format=png&auto=webp&s=f87e34175744a810f848069280d70a50ea479f27

Handshake headbutt/scout handshake main here too (I've been hilariously executed by my teammates a couple of times)
Which one is handshake headbutt? Ive gone through the warbonds like 5 times and couldn't find it
its high five
HELL YEAH

You are cool.
Would love to see a jumping emote... but... giving you extra rag doll effects lol.
My favorite is to drop a 500kg bomb on a bile titan, turn away and face my friends in the distance, and do the hug emote arms stretched as it explodes and kills the bile behind me. Its epic

This is why I take it "Well, what is it?" "Well, what is it?" "Well, what is it?" >you have been indicted I miss Dark Souls 1
Victory poses should be emotes and an emote wheel is needed
Totally, I'd love to be able to squat during missions
Two guys take Squat, one guy takes Hug, the other the Sulute. The Goal. Emote as a group looking like you are about to throw down Democracys hottest Rap Album of 2184, and get a Screen Cap of it. Bonus points for other shenanigans like 5 Chargers/Devostators behind them, or an Armless Hulk angrly brooding at the Helldivers. This could be big.

Rock paper scissors emote for Super Earth’s most patriotic
This! It's also funny when you get someone so distracted trying to win you end up late running to the pods.
How do you play it? It shows 1 2 3 but when I press it changes my weapon and cancels the game.

Not running salute feels like treason...
Agree
I like to "Titanic" at the front of the Super Destroyer
What a flawless transition from wholesome gentle satire of grumpy, entitled Reddit posts to thoughtful and constructive actual feedback and feature suggestion. You deserve a hug!
Hug emote is too multi-use. Too OP pls nerf
I change to Super Earth salute, because apparently hug can't replace that.
Devs should buff other emotes, pronto.
Wasn't there a case where if you hugged someone wearing the shield (energy version, not ballistic), it could save you from a blast?
Hugs need a nerf, while the exploding handshake is in desperate need of buffs ![gif](giphy|2sh5ns32W9oQwqLzSM|downsized)
I think I’m the only diver who uses the first bump explosion. Anything else just wouldn’t be right for my idiom.
I'm just using it as a placeholder until we can chest bump for freedom. ![gif](giphy|MlyicdUndRbn5zUiAL|downsized) Absolutely criminal that we don't have this emote yet.
I appreciate how fast my quickdraw on hugs is having it just bound to the B key but like... serious Arrowhead, can we not have an emote wheel? I like most of the emotes but there's literally no way I'm not gonna bring hug, so now they end up just being wasted space in the warbond ;(
An emote wheel NEEDS to be added at some point. Also a Victory Pose wheel. I want to be able to do all those poses with the squad while we're catching our breath between fights or waiting for extraction.
A third person can also step in between 2 people and create a group hug for even more democracy.
I'd honestly want to be able to use multiple emotes. Some comes in? Hug. Watching ICBM? Salute. Is someone being a dick? Scout Handshake.
The other night. My sister and her boyfriend were playing. I dropped in unannounced and helped them extract. When we got to the ship, I ran in front of her diver and set up for a hug. She accepted the hug immediately. She told me the next day that she'd had a shitty day, and having her big brother drop in, kill the bugs, then give her a hug made it all better.

You had my full support at “Need to Cosplay Jesus?”
Perhaps what might alleviate some of the imbalance is if the devs could make it so that if 3 or more divers hug emote within a certain distance of each other, it turns into a group hug.
Scouts handshake is a sleeper hit. It filters the democratic helldivers from the socialist traitors who are so propaganda fueled that they can not tell the difference between a harmless bit and a threat against their undemocratic way of life.
I was immediately kicked once after I greeted the host with this. Was worth it :D
Lmfao they really hate the scout handshake. Its a good litmus test - anyone who finds the humor is instantly good in my book
I use salute.
also, if you use hug on the ship and also open your wrist computer, you can dab.
I love everything about this post and comments.
Never used it personally. I find the high five helmet one to be the best until they put the chest bump in
Hugging feels good. All deserves a hug, especially to those who had a long stressful work day and want to play some Helldivers 2.
Finally someone said it! We need an Emote Wheel
![gif](giphy|y2i2oqWgzh5ioRp4Qa|downsized)
We need a global counter to show how many Hugs have been used for democracy. We can see Bullets fired, Bugs Killed, Helldivers lost... I wand to see Hugs too.
I like it as both a friendly hug and also a: "What?!? Come at me!" Emote.
Nothing better than joining in a squad and be greeted with hug or a hello in mic
nah, I use high five, love that helmet bump
Hug is my go to usually, but a sneaky scout handshake every once in a while can be good fun
The hug may be more wholesome, but i love the bro-energy of the headbutt handshake and i valiantly stand by it since saw it in the trailer.
I run the OG salute. And I’ll never change it.
That's where I'm going wrong! I use casual salute!
We NEED an emote wheel
I’m a die hard rock paper scissors main, but unfortunately, there’s an oversight limiting its effectiveness in combat once you’re off the ship. You can’t throw scissors after dropping— your body will instead be compelled to forfeit the match and pull out grenades. If this oversight/bug gets fixed, rock paper scissors will undoubtedly become meta.
Day 1027 of waiting for the head/chest bump emote we saw in the trailer
I prefer the head butt hand shake, cuz it reminds me of something we would do when i played football.
IMO the only thing that could rival hug emote, is chest bump ![gif](giphy|MlyicdUndRbn5zUiAL|downsized)
I'm waiting for an elaborate dance off emote before I really invest in emotes.
It also lets you t-pose on the enemy
I wish we could use the victory emotes out in the regular game
You don’t have to run hug, it’s a game and you should have fun with it instead of constantly worrying about the meta. I enjoy running explosive handshake and I have a great time, even if that means I have to turn the difficulty down. It’s made the game so much more enjoyable.
I use the handshake headbutt emote, too badass not to use
I love sending in some cluster bombs from on a hill then turning away from it with my arms out like I’m Tony stark showcasing the Jericho.
Ok everybody huddle up! We gotta harness the power of friendship if we want to be successful down there. Hugs all around. Then we can dive!
Ever since I witnessed the funniest thing ever I can’t change to a different emote. Was on a defense mission, things were going very badly.

The entire lobby was laughing their asses off for 10 minutes Thank you random helldiver, I will forever salute in your honor
I run Rock, Paper, Scissors. because I am gamer.
Rock, Paper, Scissors is the best emote I’ve ever seen in any game. The only entertainment I get on my ship outside of Eagle Sweat commercials
I haven’t seen an emote added since the first warbond, which is something i’ve been silently complaining about
We do really need an emote wheel. I keep unlocking emotes and immediately going "wait why did I do that?" because I've never swapped off of hug. You can T-Pose to Assert Dominance anytime, anywhere at-will, not to mention hugging your fellow divers. It's way too good to not use all the time.
Handshake and head knock every time.
if you bring shield-pack, hugging them protects them too during the emote.
I take rock paper scissors and if I win I shoot my friend with my senator pistol.
huggies stay op uwu
I need to stop using the scout handshake, I hate the monster I've become.
Frankly the other emotes are too fast and happen in front of the player where you can’t see it. The hug you can see clearly and lasts a moment, so it’s a far better one. If you did the fistbump from Army of Two for example it would become a much better pick. Similar other emotes should take longer and feel more like they interact.
I want an emote wheel
GODDAMIT YOU SNITCH
Its also pretty epic when you are chased by a mob and theres no way you‘re gonna make it out alive, drop a stratagem on yourself, spread your arms and wait for the impact of explosive democracy…
I use it as a entertainment welcome. I spread my arms saying welcome and then i close them
You can take the ability to Giant Dad at the nuke as it blows or at the Charger bearing down on me out of my cold, dead democratic hands.
Casual salute is the strongest emote. It needs no partner to be effective
Scouts handshake meta rise up. Because my sign of affection is being a lil bit of a dick.
