Helldivers 2 players who literally want to watch the world burn have put forward a spicy suggestion for a new Stratagem, which sounds like it has the potential to be incredibly powerful, if not massively risky for your fellow teammates. Enter the idea of the Guard Dog Flamethrower – an auto-firing companion bot that can spew flames whenever it wants, at whatever it wants.
Especially with Helldivers 2's Flamethrower's recent rise in popularity, there's no doubt that this is a tantalizing idea. On the other hand, we have to remember that friendly fire can't be turned off in this game, and generally speaking, uncontrollable fire and keeping the rest of your team alive don't mix particularly well.
