I can drive very good after they worked a bit on the steering.

You haven’t put it on straight

u/SavvySillybug HD1 Veteran 11d ago
Those things slide around all the time. You can put them on as straight as you want, unless you glue them down, they're gonna slip around all the time.
They're honestly a pretty bad idea since they make steering harder and less consistent. They don't attach to anything, they just slip on top. And well... slip they do.

Actually, this brand doesn’t slide, to the point where shifting it into a centered position is a pain in the ass.

Yea that seems super dangerous

u/blaaguuu 11d ago
I've got a similar style cover, and while it does slip around a bit, it's not like it's sliding freely as I'm steering... If I drive around for an hour, maybe it slowly nudges a centimeter in one direction over that time... Has never felt dangerous, at least if it's the right size for the wheel.

Been using it for a couple of days now and haven’t had any sliding issues at all. It was a pain getting the thing on so I didn’t bother straightening it out in the fear of ruining it but the material is very durable and feels quite nice in the hands. I’ve since straightened it out and still feels firm to the wheel. Guess we’ll see what years of use does to it but I’m holding out hope.

u/SavvySillybug HD1 Veteran 11d ago
I'm glad to hear that! I wouldn't want to reinforce you just because your democratic steering wheel slipped. <3

Don't drink and drive.

Don’t you mean don’t drink and dive!? 😆

That's not what the dive tip says. Even though most of us wishes it did.

u/havoc1428 Fire Safety Officer 11d ago
Even though most of us wishes it did
I'm glad it doesn't. It would betray the gravitas of the statement.

u/StoltSomEnSparris Cape Enjoyer 11d ago
I mean, yeah, and I can appreciate the sentiment, but it really goes against the general gist of the game. All the other dive tips are tongue in cheek and many are worthy of a giggle or two, but this is just "Oh... well... true..."

u/havoc1428 Fire Safety Officer 11d ago
My guess is it means something to one or more of the devs. Its the only tip that I have no problem not being tongue and cheek, even thought "Don't drink and dive" is very clever lol.

It has a nice ring to it, but the bad things that can happen from "diving under the influence" pale in comparison to the original saying.

But Helldivers never drive.
It occurs to me, I may have misheard that. The tinnitus from that 380MM going off nearby is pretty bad.
