Helldivers 2has intense combat that puts divers against two notorious factions called Terminids and Automatons. While there is infinite chaos when you set foot on the planet, there is a total respite when you are back the Destroyer.
If you are in a four-man squad, you can interact with your teammates using emotes. It is a fun way to elevate a mood, strengthen bonds with friends or strangers, and raise the morale of squadmates before jumping from the Hellpod onto the planet. This guide breaks down how you can play rock, paper, scissors with other players in the game.
How To Play Rock, Paper, Scissors
You need toequip the emote and use it in front of one more player to play rock, paper, scissorsin the game.Press the emote button, which isleft on the D-pad for PS5 and B on PC,to initiate the emote. If another player interacts with you, the rock, paper, scissors game will start.
You will see three button prompts (left, up, and right) dedicated to rock, paper, scissors prompts. Depending on your move in each turn, you’re able to either win the game against your fellow diver or lose it. There are no rewards, though.
Winning at Rock-paper-scissors is all about probability– each gesture has an equal win shot of 33%.
Thebest strategy we recommend is to start by selecting the paper button prompt; it’s often a winner, as many go for rock first.
If you win but your squadmates request for the second round, you should then copy your last move after a win and change it after a loss.
How To Get Rock, Paper, Scissors Emote
The only way toget rock, paper, scissors in the game is by buying the emotefrom theHelldivers Mobilize Warbond section. You will need 50 Medals to buy this item from the Standard Warbond.
The best way toget Medals fasterin the game is by playing theEradicate Main Missions on Defend Automaton planets.
Try to get a four-man squad, and play it on Helldive difficulty. Bring in as many Sentry turrets as possible, and the Mission will end in two to three minutes.
Therock, paper, scissorsemote is available on the eighth page,and you must unlock a majority of items in this Warbond before you’re able to actually buy the rock, paper, scissors emote. Thepages in Warbonds unlock by spending a certain amount of Medals, and youdo not have to fully buy items on a pagebefore accessing the items in the next one.
