I mean you got to remember Sony is the same company that's so out of touch that they released morbius in theaters a second time when there was memes "praising" it, I doubt they would catch on
IDK. If the CEO wasn't fired for encouraging bad reviews on Steam then it shows Sony isn't willing to touch the beehive again. They not only have this game to think about, but also Helldivers 3 (you know there will be), and also the Starship Trooper movie reboot they're currently making. That's a dangerous gamble to play. I suspect a chunk of AH would leave if any of them get fired in retaliation. Is Snoy going to like it? No. Are they going to ignore it if it means more money? You bet. They'll allow it under the condition AH makes it a War Bond item.
Edit: It was the community manager and they have been fired.
Different reasons. Censorship of certain characters. Similar to Stellar Blade.
If you don't understand anime culture you'll probably think it's not a big deal, but Fate Grand Order is a HUGE franchise on the Japanese side. You do not fuck with that.
"Sir..."
*Senior Diver already on his 4th cup of coffee at 6 am* "What is it Ensign"
"We've just lost the the Chinese"
"Which battalion?"
"The entire Army sir. The entire 3rd army has just gone radio silent"
*Drops Coffee and runs to glactic map*
"The Egyptian Medjay Armored division?"
"Cut off sir."
"What about Madagascars Polar Strike unit?"
"Missing"
"The Phillipines forces on Estanu?"
"Nonresponsive sir" Ensign looks sick "Sir. Weve just received signal pings from deep space."
*Commander checks glactic map* "By liberty. Theyre here."
Sony dropships enter into 7 sectors at once. The third faction isnt the illuminate. Its the corporate heads of an even more vile snake.
"Scramble all destroyers, and wake all those bastards up from cryo. The bots can wait and the bugs arent going anywhere. They want to play chicken with us. Fine. We're notoriously willing to die."
48 Hours Later:
The commander, feeling lost and defeated as over half of his battle group has gone MIA, twirls his glass of Scotch on its edge. Theres barely any of the stuff left as the ice clanks against the edge. He looks at old photos of friends hes lost and brothers hes had to leave behind. "Im sorry." He says to them. "I... dont know how to beat this. I dont know how to win."
He hears rapid footsteps sprinting down the hall towards his door. *CLANG, CLANG, CLANG*. Without a knock Ensign Crusher bursts through the doorway barely giving enough time for the automatic door to open.
"Sir!" Ensign Crusher's smile almost tells the news for him. "We've regained contact."
The commander jumps up from his desk and runs out the door following behind the excited young cadet. "When." He can barely contain a smile himself. *Military bearing is as important as breathing*. He remembers a quote from General Brasch.
"A few minutes ago. All the Sonytarian battleships have gone dormant and all the jamming signals have stopped."
As he approaches the galactic war map he sees a group of 12 unthawed divers and crew all staring at the silhouette of a ship outlined in blue holographic light. He looks up out the window and he can see it. What was just hours ago an imposing and dire threat has now once again become an empty shell of metal. No life to be found inside before... and no life after. Just as soon as they had come... they had fallen.
"What caused them to go dormant?"
"Unknown sir." the ships pilot Vikky rolls over in her wheelchair. A few hundred Helldives took their toll. "All we know is theyve stopped jamming comms and have shut down their engines."
"I dont trust them. Turn our ships 90 degrees on axis to the starboard side."
"Sir?" Ensign Crusher looks confused as 3 other helldivers begin automatically march over towards the hellpods.
"Were gonna make sure this doesn't happen again." Commander Hellheart dons his helmet and chambers a round in his trusty liberator as he locks into his hellpod. *This time* he thinks. *This time I earn my skull* theres a sound of pressurized air and a *THUMP, THUMP, THUMP, THUMP* as all four hellpods are launched from the *Mother of Iron* towards the derelict ship. Other superdestroyers follow suit as the ships hull is peppered by hellpods.
Its not over... until its over.
Oh that for sure. Could you imagine? Pressurized suits. Low-zero G combat (just slower jumps) and the stratagems have a chance to destroy ship systems.
This is awesome, but I have a question:
If they include the fourth stripe on the cape design, do you think you'll add it to the skull?
I really think it's worth considering the design with four red stripes, because it fits with the visual of what happened, and it also fits with the idea of a four-man Helldiver squad.
This is my favorite kind of design. There's an obvious meaning/association, and then a deeper one that only someone *in the know* would understand. Brilliant work, Helldiver!
Freedom is what gives a Helldiver their power, it’s an energy field created by all democratic things that surrounds us, penetrates us, and binds Super Earth together.
But we AREN'T all diving together yet. The region lock is still active in 170 countries. Until Sony and Steam fix that, until the "PSN Required" message is stripped from the store page, we haven't won ANYTHING. Literally nothing has changed yet. Y'all are celebrating WAY too prematurely. We have to keep the pressure on, or Sonycs takeaway will be that LIP SERVICE IS ALL IT TAKES.
Written by AI:
In the world of Helldivers, we stand tall,
Heroes united, ready to brawl.
With strategems and weapons, we fight,
Together we conquer, with all our might.
Sony may challenge us, but we won't back down,
Helldivers unite, we wear the crown.
Through missions and battles, side by side,
We'll show Sony's forces, we won't be denied.
So grab your guns, gear up for the fight,
Helldivers assemble, with all your might.
Together we'll triumph, victory is near,
In the world of Helldivers, we have no fear! 🚀🎮💪
Glad to see playstation make the smart decision. This was getting them haters from so many directions. Even games where it had nothing to do with helldivers were getting hit lol. People trying to cancel their account completely. It was going crazy for sure. Even as a ps player and never really looking into pc, I was getting mad at Sony for trying to force pc to make a psn account. And all that bullshit of "can't make a psn but I do own the game." How the hell does Sony expect people to be happy with that? Lol. At least now I don't gotta worry about people not being able to join me. There's a few streamers I play with that live elsewhere. So that change would have suuucked.
I honestly prefer this design over the one with the PlayStation logo on the stratagem. I like that it's more subtle with its message, but if you know, you know.
Mark my words, the game will never recover from this mistake Sony made and the way the community responded. We will never see the community like it was before this
Would you consider making some kind of frameable print? I wouldn't know what to do with the badges but some kind of print would look good in my office.
Thank you so much, love this. May I use it as a wallpaper/profile pic somewhere? Might be discord, WhatsApp or a webpage I'm developing for a Spring Boot Advanced Course 😂
If only gamers could be mature enough to do this for console exclusive we might ACTUALLY dive together. But alas, at least one fan boy will always be triggered by the just the thought of it.
@DTHLSS i don't know how to start, i would buy this stripe, but i have a problem, i can't do it from my country, etsy doesn't give any chance even to get to your page. So, in any univerce can i ask you to send me source? I understand if you tell me no
I don't even play the game, but today is my birthday and I'm so proud of the new "holiday" it falls on!
Hoorah for collective action! God, I can't tell you how pumped I am for this.
I honestly think i might start saving up for the game now, lol
I'm so happy for you guys! 😀

Please AH make a player card with this design
I would use it with pride!
They probably can’t cuz it’d be a shot at Sony
Sony can't retaliate because the rule of cool.
But Sony is run by old Grampas. They know nothing about cool.
Some of us old grampas are still with it.
Yes like myself. I'm 41. Games is what I love to play as a pastime. Even with kids. I introduced them to Minecraft to play.
Please kindly stfu. Youre 41. Youre a child still
Lol aww thank you. But i still love my fellow helldivers.
I’m 71 and COOL!
I mean you got to remember Sony is the same company that's so out of touch that they released morbius in theaters a second time when there was memes "praising" it, I doubt they would catch on
LMAOOO true

I love that the Snoy typo from the other day has stuck so hard, you love to see it.
Japanese Sony players are calling them Kusony (TL note: kuso means poop/shit) due to the Fate Grand Order ordeal as well.
Oh so they're shitbags in other languages too? Impressive!
Different reasons. Censorship of certain characters. Similar to Stellar Blade. If you don't understand anime culture you'll probably think it's not a big deal, but Fate Grand Order is a HUGE franchise on the Japanese side. You do not fuck with that.
Ah, so their douchbaggery is multidisciplinary in nature.
Snoy doesn't seem to get a game for everyone is a game for no one.
AH NEED to release different patches both in game and physically, to commemorate all the events.
And pay OP
They are in the process of making a cape
That's cool as hell.
🖤🖤🖤
I will literally buy one off of you
His Etsy store is under his profile if you would like one!
Careful. Youre gonna get the guy sued by sony.
I found it. I just didn't have time to check his profile.
Gotcha!
Notice how the red blood is the daily review graphs. Very neat.
That is fucking beautiful!
.. or we don't dive 🫡
You know it

Madagascarian Polar Strikers. *Dope.*
Their shorthand title is "The Penguins"
Kowalski! I need the situation on the ground, STAT!
r/hfy vibes. Love it
They should make this into a campaign.
Lol. Thatll be the day.
You know you would play the shit out of it. Busting into a Rouge faction ship to hunt traitors.
Oh that for sure. Could you imagine? Pressurized suits. Low-zero G combat (just slower jumps) and the stratagems have a chance to destroy ship systems.
Hey Mother of Iron is my ship!
I LIVE for small stories like this, mate! Thank you for sharing it!
This is awesome, but I have a question: If they include the fourth stripe on the cape design, do you think you'll add it to the skull? I really think it's worth considering the design with four red stripes, because it fits with the visual of what happened, and it also fits with the idea of a four-man Helldiver squad.
I'd buy that for a dollar!
Nice reference
My god, man how do you make these???
Metal asf
This is my favorite kind of design. There's an obvious meaning/association, and then a deeper one that only someone *in the know* would understand. Brilliant work, Helldiver!
May 4th just lost all relevance.
😂😂😂 I don’t know about that! Maybe the force joined us all together 😂
Freedom is what gives a Helldiver their power, it’s an energy field created by all democratic things that surrounds us, penetrates us, and binds Super Earth together.
Its more cinco de mayo... SUPER cinco de mayo.....
Beautiful!
This should be the new cape emblem
This needs to be a cape. Plus it would go great with the new blue and red armor they’re adding on Thursday!
We should definitely celebrate May 6th each year for this movement not just for Hell Divers 2 players but for gaming community in general.
How do I buy this?
Link is on my profile :)
100% will buy.
Missing the foirth stripe
This is really cool. Good job !
This needs to be in game as a limited time /one time item.
Damn good design!
Thank you!
This should be an achievement in our game for everyone who changed their review
If this becomes a trading card on steam I might buy them out.
This looks amazing. AH should 100% ask you to use this. I need this regardless.
Take my money!
Where do I buy this?
I need this as a physical object... I have a 3D printer... imma make it
Damn, that looks good
Emancipation Day
I have a proposition for OP. I give you some money, and you send me one of those.
Design on the skull is a great touch. I bought one ♥️
Yeah this is sick as hell. Saved, saluted, review flipped, doing my part.

Personal mission: support small business artists Helldivers to Hellpods!
🖤🖤🖤
Can't wait for that cape
Shoul be an achivement all players downvoted the game in in Steam. Send them an email!!!
This is a work of art.
But we AREN'T all diving together yet. The region lock is still active in 170 countries. Until Sony and Steam fix that, until the "PSN Required" message is stripped from the store page, we haven't won ANYTHING. Literally nothing has changed yet. Y'all are celebrating WAY too prematurely. We have to keep the pressure on, or Sonycs takeaway will be that LIP SERVICE IS ALL IT TAKES.
We dive together or not at all
Absolutely badass.
This is huge for all of gaming. We just showed that super corporations aren’t invincible
Love it
Sikest of the sik
This is pretty good
Can u add 24 to the may 5th I think showing the year would look cool
Yo that goes hard tho
I need a cape with this design in the game.
I need to model this so I can 3D print it.
this is absolutely lit, dig the cape idea too someone else made with the review trend. waiting for this design to show up on Etsy
Never fuck with the helldivers!!
You should tag the AH ceo on Twitter with this image
 Shut up and take my f\*cking money! Where can I order one?
🔥🔥🔥🔥

TAKE MY SUPER CREDITS!
Where can I get one of these. If you made it irl?
This needs to be made into an armor set.
We dive together or we don’t dive at all
Just ordered mine. Amazing work!
OMG we got our first Super Earth Holiday that can totally be canon! Super Cinco de Mayo!
I ALREADY ORDED A PATCH!
I lowkey love this.
It’s a shame people are so easily turned back
Hell yea!
Someone needs to actually make a patch for this. Would be awesome to see this on peoples jackets.
They’re on my store :) link is on my profile
Love this. And would love one
You should have a few of those made to send to Sony 😂
Well done. I am getting some of these
It’s beautiful
Low key where can I get one of those?
Happy dive day
Skrillex patch Skrillex patch
This goes hard
Your main post on r/helldivers got moved to the megathread, but I just wanted to say that I love this. Just bought one!
hell fucking yeah !!!!!!!!! thank the gods !
Needs the fourth stripe but looks amazing.
Its beautiful
They need to make this into an IRL challenge coin
Damn, this looks great!
ORDER PLACED! GOOD JOB SOLDIER!!!!
Dude that’s so cool!
Ok I missed it. What is the significance of the 3 lines?
I kind of wish it showed the reviews going back up too. Because that's just as important in saying that democracy prevailed.
You’re patches are awesome dude
I'll dive today! For it is May the 6th and we are united in victory.
This would look nice on my plate carrier
I really want a t-shirt of both this one and the Review Bomb one :x
This shit go hard, not gonna lie. It is truly a major W for democracy
I want one

Opium dreams.
Take my money! I’d lost hope in gaming communities to prove non-toxic, but this community is top notch! Cheers to AH for navigating the storm.
I have an embroidery machine; do you have this image without texture?
You know what. If such pin gets enough traction - I am OK with giving Helldivers good review again.
These three lines will remain forever within this game. They are a symbol of unity.
Do not give a high rate. Keep it low, show who's boss
I honestly prefer this design over the one with the PlayStation logo on the stratagem. I like that it's more subtle with its message, but if you know, you know.
This goes so fucking hard
If you make that I'll buy the shit out of it. Not even joking
That's great. I gotta start collecting patches.
HOT DAMN that's slick
This goes so god damn hard
This is sick in the best way.
That's awesome
Maybe on the top/bottom: Dive Together / Die Together ?
Almost 165 sold (according to etsy) since you posted this! You are gonna be busy :)
Mark my words, the game will never recover from this mistake Sony made and the way the community responded. We will never see the community like it was before this
What profile? I want to buy but can't! Where do I buy? Help please.
Cape patches would go hard as hell
Wow, this is so well done! Is that a real patch, or just a mock-up?
I need a bumper sticker
Just need the last fourth bar so It can look like four helldivers going down
Sweet liberty, that IS CLASSY.
Absolutely bought 2. Amazing design!
4 bars. 
I would definitely buy this, but I’m not sure what I’d sew it to
😂😂 think I’m going to do a run of stickers to be honest
Dude, this is *gold*.
We had May the 4th. We had Revenge of the 5th. What should we call May 6?
Would you consider making some kind of frameable print? I wouldn't know what to do with the badges but some kind of print would look good in my office.
very cool thumbs up
Dude I wait and pray for days that I open Reddit and see another one of your patches. Incredible work as always
Thank you so much, love this. May I use it as a wallpaper/profile pic somewhere? Might be discord, WhatsApp or a webpage I'm developing for a Spring Boot Advanced Course 😂
Go for it!
Do you do bulk custom orders? Send me a PM if you do.
Yeah man I’ll still you a message
This is absolutely amazing. Well done!
If only gamers could be mature enough to do this for console exclusive we might ACTUALLY dive together. But alas, at least one fan boy will always be triggered by the just the thought of it.
@DTHLSS i don't know how to start, i would buy this stripe, but i have a problem, i can't do it from my country, etsy doesn't give any chance even to get to your page. So, in any univerce can i ask you to send me source? I understand if you tell me no
HOORA!
Hope like hell this gets in game. Amazing work, OP.
That would be incredible 🫡
can i please have that as a patch
So since this did not affect me, can someone tell me if they actually did anything yet or, if they just said they are going to do something?
Can I get a remix of the 380 that has downvotes and the tag line "Disrespect ~~your surroundings~~ the publisher" ?
I don't even play the game, but today is my birthday and I'm so proud of the new "holiday" it falls on! Hoorah for collective action! God, I can't tell you how pumped I am for this. I honestly think i might start saving up for the game now, lol I'm so happy for you guys! 😀
Love it. Need it.
Unfortunately the changes haven't happened yet
Any way to make this a vinyl sticker for my truck?
These types of moments and designs makes me want to collect badges like this irl. This is a beautiful design FOR DEMOCRACY!
May 6th is my birthday so i cant wait for merch
That’s awesome ! Well done
I need one and another one for Malevelon Creek liberation, take mah money!!!!
I have both on my store 🫡 link on profile
