Despite all the updates, some bugs will inevitably remain in a game. Helldiers 2 is no exception, with plenty of well-known bugs and glitches that players have learned to contend with. Some are more disruptive than others, of course, and one of those can easily lead to failing a mission.
HD2 players are sometimes unable to refill their groups, no matter what
In one piece of feedback, SourceInsanity has opened a thread on Reddit highlighting this issue. Their group couldn’t get new players to fill the spots of people who left, no matter what they tried. “This has been a bug for quite some time, and I’m simply trying to raise awareness to it. I hope that the devs can eventually see this, or if they have, if someone could inform me of that fact.”
Others have encountered this issue, adding: “Indeed, even after throwing SOS and on public.” So whatever the players try to do, their missions are hampered by one or a couple of players leaving. Are they still doable? Possibly – it depends on the difficulty and circumstances, but that doesn’t make the bug any less frustrating.
Droves of players have come out to say that they’ve encountered this issue before. Fireheart1029 offered another commentary: “I’m pretty sure they fixed this at some point, but then broke it again and are seemingly completely unaware of it. The amount of connection issues this game is starting to have is kinda worrying.” Meanwhile, Ac7Cel seems to have a streak of bad luck, stating: “Happens every time. We at least reset the lobby every 3 Mission sets completed. But most of the time, we have no full squad a the last Mission of the set.”
With no other recourse, players have resorted to ragging some of the more active devs’ handles on the thread. We can only hope that they’ll see it and be able to investigate the problem. Otherwise, this could represent a larger issue in the players’ ability to complete missions and fulfil Major Orders.
