Play posted:I think they already kinda do. There are quite a lot of bad reviews. Payday 3 had a disaster launch but it still had a playerbase initially. The main difference being that they could not unfuck their game for like a week, and then once it was unfucked, there were bigger problems with the design to fix. Helldivers 2 is in a much better position than they were so I think the launch reviews will smooth out. The game seems fun right now, so if they can just get the matchmaking and common crashes out, that'll go a long way I think.

Play posted:I think they already kinda do. There are quite a lot of bad reviews. This happens a lot with anticipated games where if it's got a day 1 bug that effects a lot of people it gets a mini review bomb and then when they fix it with a patch hours or a few days later it usually swings back positive. Like if you look the negative Steam reviews it's mostly people talking about not being able to connect or the game crashes. And then there is the all anti-cheat is bad crowd.

Cannot for the life of me figure out what this mission means by destroy fuel silo. I did the ammo dumps just fine, but nothing I seem to do makes a scratch on these silos (I assume they are the right things).

Revitalized posted:it could be described as a BP but it's a bit more free form than the traditional thing. I think as you earn unlock points or whatever they call them in this game, you pick and choose your rewards. As you unlock more, the next tier becomes available for you to unlock. There is a premium system too but I think it's detached from the free one, and it's basically how they're doing DLC now. They said in a steam article battle passes hang around forever. The free one has many more tiers and much more stuff than the paid one, and I think all the future ones will be paid? I've got access to both but I'll be buying stuff from the free one for now. A few games last night got me a whole new inventory and 200 cash shop money, plus 30 more from exploring The game feels just like the previous one. I had some doubts but it's great. Me and my team are running around with no idea what to do and dying a lot

Going through the tutorial my reaction to the character movement was that it definitely feels lethargic, so hopefully they get the vehicles and mechs in soon. After fixing matchmaking and crashes of course.

echoing that the game is good. just joined a random group of 3 and we busted through a few missions. Great fun, guns are cool, changing the ROF on the machine guns is very fun and changes up how the feel a bunch.

Voice will probably be necessary at high difficulties, but right now I'm getting into games on easy within seconds and it's going great without touching voice chat. Game is very fun, I'm enjoying immensely.

Voice is mostly important for warning your teammate too late that there's a Heavy bug sneaking up behind them to one-shot their rear end. It's also hilarious to me that 80% of the playerbase have already unlocked the achievement for being blown sky high by an explosion.

I'm having a weird issue where if i walk up to a terminal like near the end of the tutorial or the beacon to call in the evac shuttle in a mission, press 'interact' and then WASD to input the series, it just makes me move away from the terminal. I can sorta cheese it by re-pressing interact and the next command in the series, but that's clearly not how its supposed to work. And I straight up cannot use the strategem hero terminal on the ship. I thought maybe it was because I had rebound interact, but I deleted the user settings ini and reverted all the bindings back to default and it's still doing it. I guess it's too early to find other people complaining about the same thing online but figured I'd post here if anyone is experiencing something similar.

The murder robots feel significantly harder than the bugs. Just playing on medium so far and the difference between the two seems big

This game is so good. The pick up and play aspect of just being able to drop into a friend's game mid-match remains so seamless and awesome.

Was looking forward to jumping into this, unfortunately the game won't start for me. Refunded for now, hopefully they manage to iron out their current issues soon. Still plan on getting the game once that happens, the actual gameplay looks mad fun.

Did a few automaton missions on challenging difficulty and they straight up feel like you are playing a different game compared to the bugs, less starship troopers more terminator future war. Got to face 2 automaton tanks aswell in a heavy outpost and uhh, those were rough, luckily I and one of the randoms I was playing with, both of us had recoiless rifles to take them out. Honestly I have been enjoying them more than the bugs tbh, especially since you can shoot down the dropships that bring them in as reinforcements.

This game is cool but the matchmaking issues on PS5 really suck. Is it just impossible to launch one of these online games without massive issues? Maybe now that every game has to be an online GAAS we can finally figure it out???

Keep an eye out for supercredit pickups because they may only go to the person who picks them up, unlike every other currency. Which really sucks if true.

Still plan on getting the game once that happens, the actual gameplay looks mad fun. If you're on win 11 and when you launch it, it shows the anti-cheat screen then it goes to a black screen with the game loading and then a moment later it closes, find the helldiver's .exe and in the properties set the compatibility to run as Win 8.
