Helldivers 2 devs address negative Steam reviews and vow major changes
Helldivers II: Major Changes Incoming
The developers behind Helldivers II have heard the negative feedback from Steam players. They are ready to release a patch with "significant changes" to the game.
The cooperative TPS from Arrowhead broke records on PC and PlayStation 5 earlier this year. It became the fastest-selling PlayStation Studios game ever. However, things quickly went downhill.
Player Concerns
Many players feel that Arrowhead has nerfed too many weapons and strategies. These constant nerfs have made the game less enjoyable for some. As a result, the game has received "mostly negative" user reviews on Steam.
Despite the negative reviews, the developers have listened and are responding quickly. They plan to release a major patch within 60 days to address these issues.
Upcoming Changes
Arrowhead aims to ensure that every weapon and strategy is powerful, fun, and fits well within the game’s ecosystem. Here’s what to expect in the next update:
- Rebalancing of over 30 weapons and strategies
- Overhaul of anti-tank weapons and enemy armor and health values
- Global revamp of different enemies to make them more rewarding to kill
- Buffs for certain weapons like the autocannon, heavy machine gun, and anti-material rifle
- Improvements to fire damage weapons
This update aims to meet the expectations of new players. The full list of changes is available on the Helldivers II Steam page.
Release Date
This major update will be deployed on September 17. However, there is still no mention of the addition of the third enemy faction. Fans are eagerly awaiting the arrival of the "Illuminated," as it has been over six months of fighting Automatons and Terminides. It’s time for something new, right?
