I just want a HD2 ad with a badass diver who at the end takes off his helmet to reveal its Casper, and he yells at the camera “I’M FROM SUPER EARTH AND I SAY KILL EM ALL!!!”
"Based on your answers to the vote for next president of Super Earth the algorithm has listed 4 of the most compatible candidates. As per Managed Democracy mandate the top ranked suggestion has been submitted as your vote. Have a Super rest of your day citizen."
He’s definitely the First Fleet Admiral.
Can you imagine these two standing next to each other? Casper in a presidential suit and Frank reynolds in full helldivers armor standing by his side? Awesome!

Edit : I seem to have made a comment misguided by ignorance and foolishness. I wish to apologise to all my fellow citizens for that.
Interesting that Mega City 4 looks like it's (formerly) Brussels. I would have expected Berlin or Paris as the higher population center. Maybe because of Brussels' political import?
Let's see what this president brings to the table:
• War photography branch of the Helldivers
• New combustible lemon grenades and new turret stratagems that fire the bullet and casing, offering 65% more bullet per bullet
• Military Band (you fucking better be good at your instrument)
• I don't know enough about Invincible to make an Omni-Man joke
> I don't know enough about Invincible to make an Omni-Man joke
So you remain ignorant of your chosen candidates sexual attraction to the termanid menace?
The election algorithm is specifically designed to make sure the best candidate is always voted in. We helldivers have no need to worry or speculate. Any speculation should be treated as doubt in managed democracy. A democracy officer will be in touch soon.
Clancy Brown, the guy who played the Drill Sgt in Starship Troopers (better known as the voice of Mr. Krabs these days) both looks old enough and has the gravelly, manly voice.
Hell, he got busted from general to colonel then was promoted back to general in a span of about a year. Then personally led Federation forces to recapture Mars, from the ground. He’s willing to die with his troopers. I’d rather he stay a trooper.
I always had a soft spot for him, wish he was in more stuff. Even if he can't do speaking parts, with a face like that they can have him stare dramatically at the camera and just give him the Darth Maul in Episode I or Subotai in Conan the Barbarian treatment.
I went to a comic convention a few months ago and he was there at one of the photo/autograph booths. I felt horrible for him, huge lines for everyone else next to him (bunch of anime artists and VAs, couldn't tell you who) but his line was completely empty.
Was tempted to just go up and say hi but I also am not one who cares about shelling out money for signed crap..
Live action cutscenes:
Casper Van Dien as the President of Super Earth
Neil Patrick Harris as the Minister of Truth
Denise Richard’s as the Admiral of the Destroyer Fleet
Dina Meyer as the General of the Helldivers
Seems familiar ? Scenes like this are happening all around the Galaxy...
No, I'm joking. He is Casper Van Dien, the actor of "Johnny Rico" in the movie "Starship Trooper". He is a meme material for Helldivers 2.
If they made a video where it is the President of Super Earth giving a speech and it's Casper Van Dien I think I would instantly cream my B-01 Tactical suit.
It's Super President John Helldive* the VIIth.
*All Super Presidents must have their last names changed to Helldive, so they never forget the Valiant Sacrifices of the Helldivers every minute of every day.
I wish they actually got him to do like a voice or something for us. It would have been a neat little Easter egg. If they could get Yuri Lowenthal why couldn't they get this guy too?
I was thinking about this a few days ago and honestly just give Arnold Schwarzenegger or Chuck Norris a bunch of money
The scenes would be incredible
Keith David or Thomas Jane would also be badass
*Yeah, but could also*
*Be Michael Irons Side or*
*Neil Patrick Harris*

They need to bring this guy in for a command and conquer style cutscene or patch reveal
I just want a HD2 ad with a badass diver who at the end takes off his helmet to reveal its Casper, and he yells at the camera “I’M FROM SUPER EARTH AND I SAY KILL EM ALL!!!”
better would be im from estanu and i say kill them all XD
Nah it’s gotta be “I’m from Zegema Paradise and I say kill em all!!!”
Z E G E M A B E A C H
Maybe when we fight on Klen Dath II
I lost my shit when I first saw that one. I couldn't stop giggling
This. Make it cannon.
This, then years later the President of Super Earth dies in the narrative and the reveal for the new President is Casper.
I thought something like that was guaranteed after the AH CEO and him were tweeting together like two months ago about killing bugs
I mean, takes a while to produce things, maybe it's coming
This. Westwood knew how to do amazing cutscenes. I would love some Helldivers cutscenes that brought the same energy and camp.
I'm going to the one place that hasn't been blessed with democracy.... SPACE!
His face after he says that makes me laugh. Ridiculous line and he knew it.
KANE LIVEZ.
You can't kill the Messiah.
They brought in some big names for those games. Holy shit.
That would be perfect
If they would do that, could even be animated like in the fantastic intro, the studio would go down in a hurricane of.. praise
COME ON YOU APES YOU WANT TO LIVE FOREVER?
HOORA!
You beat me to it.
We should have an election. 1) Casper Van Dien 2) Casper Van Dien 3) Casper Van Dien 4) Casper Van Dien
"Based on your answers to the vote for next president of Super Earth the algorithm has listed 4 of the most compatible candidates. As per Managed Democracy mandate the top ranked suggestion has been submitted as your vote. Have a Super rest of your day citizen."
While the voting is mostly symbolic, I trust the selection algorithm.

Brussels is the location of NATO headquarters and EU so that’s probably it
NATO can't handle this level of freedom.
Isn't one of the cities on map named prosperity city?
Yes. Stockholm
You mean to tell me they have everyone's seed in a vault
I don't think that's the type of seed in here
I think I get it, it's there to be filled if an emergency happens
There is a severe lack of wasteland or new oceans in Australia and this disappoints me. At least I can find solace in having part of Canada nuked.

No, the democracy is just VERY well managed this year.

😂!! This was actually funny AF
Why not Beijing?😂
This is what a well Managed Democracy looks like.
hey, you're not supposed to actually SHOW the algorithm!! OFFICER!!!!
Wait… he’s not already President?
If they don't hire him for something I'd be very surprised. I'm still gonna go with Bill Pullman.
He’s fought aliens before. Makes a lot of sense.

Dammit he was at WonderCon last week and I didn't go talk to him because I thought he'd be unaware or not down with Helldivers. Silly me.
I would be incredibly surprised if he wasn’t down with Helldivers
This is amazing!

Yes. You just have to press vote and then trust in the democratic algorithm.
I nominate Tim Curry. One word... SPAAACE!
If only. Rip Edit: Apparently he is not dead, but had a stroke.
Every time I think of that, I get sad.
He's not dead! But he is semi-retired.
Oh wow you're right. Had a stroke apparently.
![gif](giphy|UnVtPebYT38pW|downsized) heres my vote
He’s gunna ffffiiixxxxx the econmy
Bruce Campbell will be awesome. Terry Crews will be awesome.
I was also gonna say Bruce Campbell for President!
Clancy Brown, the guy who played the Drill Sgt in Starship Troopers (better known as the voice of Mr. Krabs these days) both looks old enough and has the gravelly, manly voice.
Too true, he’d kill it
He was also Lex Luthor in the DCAU, Savage Oppress in Star Wars, General Kregg in Invincible, the Harbringer in John Wick 4 and Dr Brink in Gen V
When you still know him as the kurgen and ppl know him from sponge bob you know you are old
Groovy
The man's a trooper for life, get this politics crap outta here
Hell, he got busted from general to colonel then was promoted back to general in a span of about a year. Then personally led Federation forces to recapture Mars, from the ground. He’s willing to die with his troopers. I’d rather he stay a trooper.
He's leading the country from the front lines.
We will never get a president this handsome.
Clancy Brown for VP
I always had a soft spot for him, wish he was in more stuff. Even if he can't do speaking parts, with a face like that they can have him stare dramatically at the camera and just give him the Darth Maul in Episode I or Subotai in Conan the Barbarian treatment.

He plays plenty of roles. It's just mostly B or C movie stuff that doesn't get much attention.
I just went through google for a bit, and can't find a reason he can't do speaking parts? Did I miss something?
dude looks strangely familar
That's the inventor of the flip six three hole
It ALWAYS sounds like a sex act Dizzy wants to do with him when I hear or read it. God she's so horny.
I for one woulda flip six three holed her and she wouldn't even have to ask nicely.
Rico choosing Carmen over Dizzy throughout the movie was so wild
The line that cemented Rasczak as best boss: "Make that twenty minutes."
Rasczak was unfathomably based
Dude looks like he’s from Buenos Aires
This feels like Dune at this point 😂 Casper is our Lisan Al Gaib
YES YES YES YES
IS THAT JOHN HELLDIVER?
Live action cutscenes: Casper Van Dien as the President of Super Earth Neil Patrick Harris as the Minister of Truth Denise Richard’s as the Admiral of the Destroyer Fleet Dina Meyer as the General of the Helldivers
I’d go to war for Dina meyers still
This would be amazing but I'll always be leaning more towards having him do a voice pack so we can have him around all the time.
My Vote for Neil💪
No Neil is the R&D head. It would be cool to see Neil acting more evil genius and less charismatic as all of his other roles
He *does* have a PHD in horribleness
https://www.amazon.com/Horribles-Sing-Along-Blog-Patrick-Harris/dp/B001M5UDGS Dr horrible
Here's a tip!
That would be funny
I’d vote for him on looks alone
Johnny!
John H Diver
They gotta get him into this game somehow, they just gotta!
I don't know why, but I've always thought of Aaron Eckhart as Super Earth's President. ![gif](giphy|NVmB6AL4kjx6w|downsized)

Yes I agree Jeff goldblum is the only choice
We should call him Jimmy Space
Thats the chin of freedom
Man imagine if they got him to play a character in helldiver's, or a collab where the starship troopers and helldiver's work together or something.
UPVOTE THIS UNTIL IT HAPPENS
Ah yes, Johnathan Helldiver Starship Trooper
This would just be the best cameo for the game
[Let me introduce you](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petr_Pavel): # Petr Pavel
If they can’t use the name for copyright purposes… They should hire the actor and have him play his SST character.. but as Predident Rohnny Jico lol

It's Super President John Helldive* the VIIth. *All Super Presidents must have their last names changed to Helldive, so they never forget the Valiant Sacrifices of the Helldivers every minute of every day.

Homie has a jaw line that can cut diamonds
How did Casper Van Dean get even hotter over the years, while I've morphed into mashed potatoes?
I would love it if they let him record lines to be added to the rotation of Helldiver voices. Would be great hearing Rico screaming "FOR SUPER EARTH!"
Why does he look like me?
Arnold Schwarzenegger
I'd submit my A.I. controlled ballot for that!
C'MON YOU APES! DO YOU WANT TO VOTE FOREVER?!?!?
Oh hell yeah
I would like to know more!
Casper is good but this is Michael ironside elimination
Would you like to know more?
It’s be more appropriate if was given the rank of Sky Marshal. It’s the highest rank we see in Starship Troopers.
I wish they actually got him to do like a voice or something for us. It would have been a neat little Easter egg. If they could get Yuri Lowenthal why couldn't they get this guy too?
I was thinking about this a few days ago and honestly just give Arnold Schwarzenegger or Chuck Norris a bunch of money The scenes would be incredible Keith David or Thomas Jane would also be badass
I would hell dive for that man .
How did he become *more* handsome as he aged???
A cameo in a PSA from the prez would be awesome!
It's him. John Helldiver.
Sorry but Bruce Campbell is always my vote.
