Sadly, there was nobody to overhear my brainfart/stroke of genius, because I was playing the game solo.
These players are, as it were, playing a game of their own devising called Helldiver 2.
If you’re minded to join their ranks, be prepared to not have much fun, at first.
But having access to juicier gear only gets you so far.
Which is, of course, where the MGS5 comparison comes in.
you’re free to mislead them by summoning turrets to create a fuss.
The MGS5 connections don’t just lie in how solo encourages stealth, however.
What about decoys akin to Snake’s various inflatable dummies?
They could start by using the pop-up cardboard Helldiver from the tutorial.
That element of whimsy is perhaps the real common thread, here.
