Helldivers 2 has been out for well over a week and yet it still suffers from the kind of connection issues that would be (and were) unacceptable by launch day standards, let alone days later.”
A day after the biggest update as of yet, Helldivers 2 devs issued a hotfix to deal with some glitches. Players praise the effort.
The current Major Order allows the Helldivers 2 players to choose which front they'll fight on following the update. Where we'll you be?
It's been so good spreading some democracy with our updated toys!! Please don't nerf the mortar orbital barrage
Thermite Grenade has received a substantial buff in the latest Helldivers 2 patch, and the players have discovered a newfound love for it.
Lol nice one Jim. But people have already been playing the game for a while now. The people know what they have here and it turns out... they absolutely LOVE IT. The devs are also really passionate. The gamers love the experience and that same experience is only going to get better and better. Thanks for your input though Jim
...guess this isnt the kind of game for Stephanie.
Gives suicide squad 65 but this 35 (Insert mind blown meme)
“Oh, and it’s grindy as all hell to unlock upgrades and cosmetics.”
No it isn’t.
“This is compounded by several objectives in which you have to literally sit patiently while a timer counts down for ages and enemies barely spawn.”
Play on higher difficulties. You’ll be overwhelmed immediately upon entry.
“ It’s amazing to me that this game throws in multiple outfits that make you look like a medic, but they took the fucking medicine out.”
Not true. My medic comes with two extra stims, and anybody can heal anybody so long as you have them.
I understand getting frustrated with not being able to play especially that it’s an online game, & maybe Stephanie has had really bad luck with connecting.
Afaic it’s down to a 5/10. Can’t recommend a game that can only be played 5 out of 10 tries (latest attempt was last night).
The worst times are when it does work & it crashes a few minutes before extraction & you lose all rewards you would’ve gotten.
Would the devs, which I like to think are doing everything they can find it acceptable to return the money spent until the issues are fixed? If they’re asking me to wait to play, can I ask them to wait to get paid?
Bottom line I paid for a game I only were able to properly play the first few days.
