Helldivers 2 has provided its players with plenty of amusing moments, many of which were unintentional. These moments are often caused by glitches, some of which can ruin missions, while others are just entertaining to witness.
One such glitch encountered by a player involved the Shield Generator, resulting in an unexpected and surprising outcome. The player shared the amusing story that occurred during a recent game, leading to the unfortunate loss of all their Samples.
“We had just completed a challenging mission, securing 40 Samples. We strategically placed a Shield Generator away from the Samples but within its protective radius, which turned out to be a grave error. As the Generator deployed, it launched the Samples across the map at an astonishing speed, leaving Eagle-1 in the dust,” explained the player.
Despite the intended cautionary tale, the incident sparked curiosity among other players who expressed a desire to witness the “yeeting” phenomenon. The Shield Generator has been known to cause various issues, and this latest glitch further highlights the need for attention.
The Shield Generator does offer some strategic advantages. One notable use is to protect a Hellbomb until detonation. Enemies can prevent the detonation by destroying the Hellbomb, but the Shield Generator’s protective bubble shields it for a duration that exceeds the detonation time.
To avoid similar Sample-yeeting mishaps, players are advised to refer to the provided guides to enhance their strategies and effectively eliminate the enemy forces.
