One of the biggest issue with this game so far. Seems most players especially newbs like to treat this like just another twinstick shooter causing the whole team to get screwed rather than cooperating together to complete objectives.

Once you are more experienced with how the game works and upgrade a few of your weapons/stratagems, going solo on all those easy difficulties mission is perfectly viable.

The game quite desperately need more end game contents if the developer expect to see further long term user support however as a pick and play game, Helldivers push all the right buttons.

Forget about playing with pubs if you are expecting cohesive teamwork. More than 80% of the time those players just want to go trigger happy by testing their new toys or even worst simply throwing those offensive stratagem all over the place without regards of their fellow teammates.

Also a word of advise for those who like to go trigger happy; shotguns, arc throwers, explosive launchers and the EXO-44 Exosuit mech are NOT the weapon you would want to pick if you are playing a team. You will more than likely do more harm than good.
