This is the same dev that made Magicka as their first game. Friendly fire is part of their company culture and it makes better multiplayer games.

I didn't realize that! Magicka is so funny due to the complex spell casting (like strategems) and the sometimes unintentional friendly fire. Makes a lot of sense knowing it's the same developers.

Oh wow, I had no idea! I may have to pick up Helldivers 2...

Get it, it's so much fun even if you're playing with randoms.

When I learned they were the Magicka devs it made a lot of sense.

They've made team killing an artform :D

TIL. Magicka and 2 were a hoot with my friends. The first game deserves a remaster with a better controller layout.
