Fear not, defenders of democracy: Helldivers 2 players who bail on operations in futile hope of quick XP are only fooling themselves.
For some context, there's a popular, albeit slightly dubious method of farming XP in Helldivers 2. It's basically: find a multi-part operation, blitz through the mission with the most easy kills and samples, and then bail on the operation with your bag of XP. Certainly not very democratic, but until now it's been unclear whether the practice was giving the Automatons (and, elsewhere, the bugs) an edge against the remaining players.
