The Escalation of Freedom is Helldivers 2‘s biggest update yet, and in addition to introducing new content, it features quality-of-life changes to address the grief-kicking problem.
In a Helldivers 2 Escalation of Freedom blog post on July 24, developer Arrowhead Game Studios announced a system where if you get kicked, you spawn in a new session as a host with all the team’s loot from the previous session. You can pick up all the items before extraction and get out without losing any rewards.
