Arrowhead Game Studios writes: "Attention Helldivers, Due to technical issues at the launch of HELLDIVERS 2, we allowed the linking requirements for Steam accounts to a PlayStation Network account to be temporarily optional. That grace period will now expire. See details below in this post. Account linking plays a critical role in protecting our players and upholding the values of safety and security provided on PlayStation and PlayStation Studios games."
The real fight begins for Helldivers 2 players after failing a huge Major Order, as Arrowhead ushers in the next chapter of warfare.
If only the game wasn't so barebones. Out of the super fun core gameplay, the game is a barren land. They better make much easier "major orders", because the player base has mostly moved on.
Think people are stupid? What's your favourite thing to do besides lying?
I think that A lot of the player was snap out of existence, after 177 regions was forced to go dark.
In those regions in which they took the game down... that was only for new purchases. Anyone who already bought it could play just fine.
im not sure where u get your numbers from, but there are still a massive amount of people playing ha
I really hope they expand the war to where our foes get to super earth like in helldivers 1 I’d imagine the game by then would have tons of stratagems and the vehicles by then
It’s important to establish both successes and failures in order to make community engagement feel genuinely impactful, and not just a predetermined outcome on rails.
They obviously have a bunch of content waiting for deployment, and they plan to trickle it out at whatever pace keeps the community at their desired size.
The game is still much, much more popular than they ever planned. And antitank mines feel like small potatoes compared to the vehicles and new enemies we know are down the road.
Buckle up for a long term plan.
Helldivers 2 can take a long time to figure out every mechanic in the game, so Reddit users have shared their most helpful tips.
The main tip that I would tell a new player is: know how and when to pick your fights. Sometimes it's better to avoid a skirmish altogether and focus on the missions. And if you are indeed starting a fight, try to end is as soon as possible and focus on the smallers enemies first, because if you get rid of all those bastards then they won't call for backup and you'll have time to finish the bigger threats
Helldivers 2 is now on the Game Boy Color, sort of.
"protecting our players and upholding the values of safety and security provided on PlayStation and PlayStation Studios games."
So everyone was playing without values and safety? The ... cornerstones of Democracy? 😧
It seems pretty harmless... i mean who doesnt have a PSN account now given how popular the PS4 was, and how many play on both PC & console? I get that there are some PC users who may only play on PC but there are other PC games that require certain accounts in order to play. EA Origin, Ubisoft, MS Bethesda...
Values and safety??? When was the last time PSN got hacked???
We all know that this is to inflate PSN user numbers.
Oh no, that thing all online game make you do… clearly the game will be unanimously boycotted.
