Helldivers isn't a competitive team based shooter. It's a 4 player mission based co-op game. Friendly fire is core to the game design. Using a powerful weapon comes with a risk of killing yourself or team mates. And death, in that game, is also important. It's not much of a punishment, but it does give risk.
