Friday was insane, servers were literally 100% at capacity
They did a patch to up the server from 250k to 360k 30mins later it was full again
@@flamegame848it was 5 minutes actually and that was last week not yesterday 💀
Dude same! And although it took like 5 minutes of reconnecting to get through I didn’t care. Grabbed some more water and chatted with the guys until I was able to board their destroyer
I couldn't play till today. Good for arrowhead to be suffering from success
same here. I want to play so badly but it's already at max. cant login after 5 mins of waiting
Note that 255k is strictly Steam. Adding in the PS5 numbers and its nearly half a million, its absolutely incredible.
Didn’t think about that but you’re right. I’ve never seen anything like this personally. Here for it!
its 333k now
The highest number of concurrent players was recorded in January 2018 at 3.24 million (PUBG) @@RD-ok7gt
That's a lot of Freedom being delivered!
Over 400k on steam
Starting to see a trend where “AAA” devs are doing mass layoffs where medium/small studios (Arrowhead/Packet Pair) are making bangers that gamers want, and are now hiring en masse. 🤔
companies being forced to answer to customers instead of shareholders, it's a glorious thing
@@hadoken95capitalism is beautiful when done properly.
And thank god Arrowhead is not going to introduce PVP.
Isn’t it wonderful?
ah competitive capitalism love it
I loved it when the devs said " a game for everyone is a game for no one""
Clearly this game isn’t for genocidal bugs or communist robots.
yeah, depending on the type of game you might even succeed at making a game for MOST people. but you'll never make a game for everyone that succeeds.
Still, making an effort to be inclusive is incredibly commendable.
@@meganandrews-austin3812 only as long as quality doesnt suffer wich usualy is the case becouse you atract activist types assholes who only wich to push diversity. Happend to star wars and many more.
Making an effort to be inclusive should always be at the absolut back of the list otherwise it will interfere and turn to shit.
@@meganandrews-austin3812 chess and checkers did it. They need matel to create inclusive ganes
I don't wanna be that guy. But the fact that Helldivers 2 surpassed Halo infinites peak player count is insane. Especially considering Halo is free and not to mention, Xbox's flagship ip. Xbox should be embarrassed lmao
Halo hasn't been good since the middle to end of the 360, it hasn't been xboxs flagship ip since 343 took over
Seriously though, Xbox as a brand just needs to shut down permanently. All they’ve done for this whole generation is lose and lose and lose on a daily basis. Xbox is singlehandedly holding back the industry, and anyone siding with them should be ashamed to call themselves gamers.
@@istealpopularnamesforlikes3340hey man I save way more money with them, so I appreciate them
xbox’s flagship ip that hasn’t been good since like halo 3 this is not new
Halo is an incredibly overrated game and everyone except Xbox players know that! Pc has at least 5 other titles that do "halo" way better!
The thing is it’s not only the gameplay that makes it fun it’s the overall presentation. It’s the ship, the entrance to the planet launching down in the pods with the awesome music playing. Seeing all the other ships and pods launching down. The game really makes you feel like you’re part of a big galactic war.
Last night I also realized what you choose as the name of your ship is actually displayed on the outside of the ship. I thought that was a cool touch that I didn’t expect.
I noticed that also, love it. Mines the Shield of Freedom.
Can the name of the ship be changed?
@@DoomShroomer Pretty sure you can in the same menu you access to do ship upgrades
SES Hammer of Peace
Fist of opportunity 😂
@@DoomShroomeryes, you can change it anytime.
Helldivers is suffering from success at this point, too many players to the point their servers are always overloaded. Hopefully they can increase the player capacity again soon.
Edit: Cap increased to 450000 capped out in 2 minutes.
Kinda shows how little Sony actually understands about players not realizing that this is the kind of game that people want and not allocating more server space.
@@Lunk42 To be honest who expected this? I knew the game before it came out and was excited for it. But no way did I expect everyone to latch onto it like this.
@@Lunk42this was really unexpected the 1st game wasn't all that well known but had a solid player base
I'm playing it on easy to get the hangs of it. The performance of the game has irmproved a lot under Proton..
@@chilbiyito I mean I'd hope the people who are producing the game would realize that as they had access to it before anyone else did. Especially when you know big companies like Sony likely have entire divisions dedicated to trying to understand the psychology of consumers. You've got a consumer friendly game with little to no microtransactions despite being a live service game, it doesn't cost a hundred bucks like most games now a days and on top of that is extremely fun and (minus the current server issues) is very high quality with a lot of effort put into it.
I think the fact that the brand isn't recognized kinda further proves my point as it just shows they don't even realize that brand recognition really isn't that important to most people. They don't even seem to consider that all it takes is making a genuinely fun game that doesn't try to milk its players dry. I dunno its just my speculation after all but it feels like more than ever they just don't get it. Hopefully the success of HD2 and failure of "Kill" the justice league (which yeah I know isn't a sony game but it's live service) makes more studios and publishers understand that THESE are the kinds of games we want more of.
What I'm loving is seeing people playing the role of a newscaster, and update everyone on the battles across the system, and calling for help on the planets losing ground. The battle for Malevon Creek has everyone on the edge of their seats.
They’re gonna introduce mech suits soon. I’m gonna be dishing out democracy while I’m 20 feet tall
I was huge on mechs in first game x3
*managed democracy.
"Stand by for Titanfall"
My favourite tactic in the first game was getting 4 copies of the same mech, and just spending the entire game in the mech. Not practical, but hilarious
Not soon because of current problems..
The devs are fucking killing it, staying on top of the overwhelming popularity. This game is def going places
What devs are killing is the matchmaking
@@thestepback no? They're literally working overtime and into the weekend to make sure the matchmaking can continue going smoothly. Not their fault they made a game so good that too many people want to play it
@@thestepback what a dumb reply, good job indicating you know jack shit
Look I love the game but you don't know what your talking about. They aren't "on top" of anything. They have been trying to play catch up since launch.
Oh and matchmaking hasn't worked properly for PC since launch. I want the game to succeed but saying untrue things doesn't help anyone.
@@chunkycornbread4773 I mean, just because they didn't succeded in this one thing doesn't mean they aren't "on top of it".
The matchmaking issues, I believe, are because of controlled resources. They have always been an indie team, and the risk of this game launching as an underrated cult always existed. Hence the lack of investment into big capacities.
250,000 people have friends. That’s a rude awakening for me 😢
There are 8,091,632,664 people in the world tho! You are not alone!
@@takemeseriouslyplx2124 fair point! To hell with those 250,000 socially privileged scumbags 😚
Just play with randoms with your mice on. At some point, you will meet competent people. That is what I did to find friends to play with.
Yeah they can dive to hell for all i care 🙂🫡@@sol5916
Gotta be social Democracy Defender! Open that mic, step out and be ready to lose arms, legs and a torso or two
It is absolutely possible for the fight to be taken all the way to Super Earth. In the first Helldivers the community could straight up LOSE the Galactic War if players could not successfully defend Super Earth. Towards the end of the game's life, this became more and more common as less people played.
i mean thats happening right now, were losing the defense against the automatons lol
@@soulcleave2386 Not so. As of 2/17/24 the Automata Offensive has been effectively halted. The Xzar Sector has just recently been liberated, with Trigon Sector well on the way to liberation as we speak; its defenses already outpacing the automaton invasion. After that, we're back to where we were since the beginning of this Galactic War; our invasion of Severin Sector.
@@soulcleave2386it's meant to happen as we nullify the bugs the automatons gain ground it's so war isn't over before it begins

As a 3D animation student in my
2nd year, I’m ecstatic to know that a company like this is succeeding in such a positive way. I hope they’re still in the customer’s good side when I graduate and apply to work for them!
Hawken team and even the 3 man team in a basement of path of Exile are remarkable also.
Never forget us in your future endeavors! :)
Like you said at 10 minutes, in friday, the 15th, all seemed lost, the defence of Ubanea and meridia were failing horribly due to the suprise attack of the bots, but I and many helldivers saw they left their flank largely undefended, and we charged to take the planets behind them, and with our success, the devs noticed, and it became part of the story that we were able to halt the advance, and now have to defend our new foothold, surrounded on all sides, but they were no longer pushing toward super earth.
It's a very '82ed airborne drop into Bastogne' type of moment, since it basically hamstrung an offensive that was rolling up the SEAF.
I want to see missions where you and more than one enemy faction all hit a planet at the same time. Enemies infighting with each-other and fighting players at the same time. Really make people's neurons fire during the pre-drop phase as they'll have to deal with both enemies at once.
That would be interesting, especially if the meta became two half squads each geared for one faction.
Im so happy this game is so successful, i remember being hyped a week before fanboying to all my friends and showing them trailers, now everyone lnows about the game and it just brings a tear to my eye
It was the same for me, I found the game because this smaller content creator made a video on it and it was a couple weeks before release, I remember telling him how the game looked fun. I also didn't think the game would get popular because I wasn't seeing ANYONE else talking about the game. Now here we are with the game being extremely successful!
@@jackofalltrades5238 helldivers 1 was one of my favorite games to play with friends. We used to play couch co-op on it all the time when people would come over. Now all my buddies are enjoying helldiver's 2.
It's so awesome!
The game to me just has so much personality. It's campy and downright silly at some points. But it's charming and can look really cool destroying waves of enemies with a team.
IN the first game, Super Earth could be attacked if people left a faction unchecked. It's also possible that the third previous faction may return or an entirely new one will be brought up later down the line. The first game did introduce each faction step-by-step, Bugs being first then the others later so its possible this could be the same case.
It would be pretty awesome if the Illuminate returned and then either the Cyborgs came back or a new rebel faction showed up. (I mean they could do anything for a 4th faction, but an open revolt would be the only one with precedent.)
@@Sorain1 the Automatons are just the Cyborgs from HD 1 given a new name.
@@CrazyLikeUhFoxwhat do you mean citizen ? Don't you know your story lessons ?The cyborgs have been locked away in the mines of Cyberstan for 100 years now, the automatons are CLEARLY not related to them. Be careful next time i will report you to the agent of liberty for treason and fake propaganda.
One feature I'd love to see is faction generals where each faction can make decisions invade planets and counter attack.
In the first game, the progression of the Galactic map continued on its own, with enemies pushing towards SE if players aren't pushing back, and vice versa. Back in its heyday, it wasn't rare for the fun factions to get played against a lot, eliminated and then you had to play the others. And then the war ended in a result, and players that fought in that war would get a cosmetic set as a reward. (A tattered battle damaged set if Super Earth lost the war, and a ceremonial set if it won). Apparently, in this game, they also have DMs who will adjust things depending on how players are doing. I wonder if that means we could see surprise offensives from a desperate enemy faction.
Seeing enemy factions performing Battle of the Bulge style Desperation attacks would be really cool.
The fat bugs that spew acid on you are such a game changer. If you dont have them as spawns level 6 is still hard but very doable, but if you do have them even level 5 is a pain
2 shots grenade launcher and their dead
@@aaronjohnson1005 ofcourse, but there is 5 of them and they are right next to me. I am now dead. any other bug i just run away from or Keep shooting, but you need to dodge right into 3 hunter who poison you. They alone are not hard to deal with, but as part of a army they are such sponges, with more damage than any other non-elite bug that you have to focus them.
grenade luancher, autocannon, laser rover guard dog, flamethrower. there are plenty of options to account for this. but without them the bugs become so much easier. that is my point.
1-shot railgun once you finally unlock it
@@jornzwaagstra1150 I thought that they sucked to kill too, until I found out they actually take the most damage (at least when shooting from the front) to headshots.
It can take less than a mag to kill them with only headshots.
easiest thing too deal with
the difficulty in helldivers is an RNG, you will get missions on high difficulty which will make patrols easy to avoid like you said, but the opposite will happen too, The enemies that will come from the ships also vary a lot, and depending on whether you can deal with them quickly or not, they will only accumulate, another thing is to fight close to places that have enemies, they will be attracted by the noise and explosions, if you have the possibility Exterminating them before moving helps not to accumulate so many. i love the upgrade on the game, i play the first 1 since 2016.
I think the big thing is, while it can be rng, a lot of that rng can be mitigated by your setup and good performance on the field. I can consistently do hard diff solo and will start ramping up to do extremes solo.
The enemies and how they work overall is something you have to take consideration, along with the type of mission you run into. I think the biggest issue people have is that they take too long. Lower difficulties encourage you to stick around and complete EVERYTHING, while higher difficulties staying for too long will get you overwhelmed
I hope some of the Stratagems currently absent from part 2 will make a return later on. As a solo player, I would extensively use a stratagems that would lure in enemies. Giving me space to sneak from Mission Point to Mission point and call in the Dropship with minimal enemy contact.
Some would call it wimpy, I called it efficient.
Somehow the higher difficulties have less chargers from my experience which is the unit that gives me the most issues
@@mcd0ndal I have more than 100 hrs in the game, reached Skull Admiral level 50 and no, there are a shit ton of chargers in helldives, not less.
I wish there were less lol.
Diff 9 for the bugs is really easy if you have the proper equipment,for automatons just praise liberty and democracy to save you from getting 1shot...
I think there's also a recent interview where one of the devs or the CEO himself saying that they've had to discard and replan their entire roadmap to widen its scope and make it even bigger because they did not anticipate this level of success. You love to see it.
The playerbase is higher, but most of us can't even log on due to servers being full.
Super earth being invaded is definitely possible because eveyone got their asses handed to them by the automatons when they invaded those planets
I think in Helldivers 1 there were even special urban missions for that. Regardless, it seems that Defend Campaigns with escort civilians were harder than what they were supposed to be like because of a bug. It caused neverending stream of dropships landing one after another xD
@@Aurilion44 that’s right. You had to fight on the streets of super earth. It was great
@@Aurilion44 I totally thought that was intended ngl 😂😂 thought the bots were just way harder than the bugs and they were supposed to be set up as like a threat that is spreading on one side as we push back the bugs until players got gear and stuff to be able to turn on the bots. But it being a bug makes WAY more sense, that shit was hard
The socialist menace must be halted
That’s going to give missions a whole new feel. Environmentally, the game is stunning, and the planets feel authentic and real, and alien. But playing this game, on a map of earth, seeing destroyed buildings and bugs, that’s going to feel so intense.
This game deserves all its success and more…. I know it’s early 2024 but game of the year so far…. Has made a mockery of the AAA company’s cough cough suicide squad and skull and bones….. can’t wait to see how this game develops.
I think you mean "AAAA". Show some respect for the peak of gaming that is Skull and Bones 😂
@@notaperson916 my bad your right. Sorry Ubisoft gods I have sinned….
A live service game done well instead of a soulless cashgrab
@@oscarriveraabal9390 Idc as long as its only cosmetics and not OP weapons.
I can see the galactic war affecting gameplay aspects too, example, the Automatons have made a push on Super Earth and the Eagle Runs are not as fast as they used to on Terminid missions. Or maybe the Automaton missions yield more XP, possibilities are endless.
250k on steam on close to 1:1 on ps5 so they need to up the server capacity from 360k to like 750k since all the streamers and RUclipsrs are playing it or this is gonna be a consistent problem as the game grows, they uped the server capacity from 250k to 360k last week and it filled in 5 minutes
I don't think they expected the game to absolutely blow up like it did. I'm happy though it's the best game I've played in years and they deserve it
I suspect this is one of those fad multiplayer games that explodes for a bit, especially due to media like streamers. Like Battlebit. I also expect a massive plummet in players. Arrowhead should keep their head held high though, they did an incredible job, and even if most people don't stay, they made an incredible game.
@@sauceinmyface9302 tbf, Battlebit is still doing pretty well and is a blast lol
I agree, I was thinking a couple million for capacity honesty
I haven't spent a dime and I pretty much have everything that requires premium currency like the pass and most of the shop armor that have been in rotation all from just sheer grinding.
This is also a different animal when it comes to live service, I think it really redefines what live service should look like. Not blocks of updates, but micro updates and a live team of game masters doing things behind the scenes every game. The game master system not being AI makes me feel like I am playing against someone behind a computer.
It’s ai and people
There is no way people are controlling most games with 500k people playing
@@dvc1867 it's not most games, its just a general messing with the worlds, deciding which worlds are being attacked, increasing the difficulty, decreasing the difficulty, adding support weapons, changing modifiers, etc. . Looking back probably should have worded this better but is what it is.
The current balance (or really the lack of) for the weapons is the biggest thing holding back players. The higher difficulties in the first game could be completed with virtually any weapon, but now there are minimum viable weapons in HD2, which feels bad. I don't want to have to use one of three weapons to play. I like laser weapons, but the scythe is so worthless that it might as well just be removed until they refurbish it to have a comparable utility/output to justify its use.
What website do you use to see the steam chart numbers at 1:57 ?
With how liberation points are going. The galactic map seems pretty rigged as an illusion. Often planet progress will reset or remain at a fixed amount. For example some planets since launch day are still at 0% because they reset constantly.
I play on ps5 and have for 60 hours now and I haven't seen progress spike down once (it can go down if players keep losing) might just be a visual bug
The game has "DMs" controlling certain things but planets losing progress is not because of them. The planets are losing progress because not enough players are at those planets. The enemies are constantly pushing back a little bit so if there are not enough players at a planet it won't really progress. I think you are supposed to fight mostly at the planets closest to Super Earth, and keep pushing the enemies back.
@@bonehed1 when a planet has 40k or 200k players. There is more than enough people to create progress. Yet progress remains the same or regresses.
I’m sure the devs are resetting things on the back end.
Going by how maxed the servers have been, Arrowhead probably has to halt player progress or else the players would’ve likely exterminated one of the factions by now.
Asmongold said he is going to play it on sunday, so that will be another spike in players
yup, just like how he said he's gonna play genshin impact.
@@kanaria-cu3uvdifference is HD2 is a hot game atm so he'll play it, say it changed his life, and then move onto the next flavor of the week that he can milk some content out of
@@lordkrauserand?
@lordkrauser This is so true lol. Most streamers do this especially the ones that mostly do commentary
Wow can’t wait for my favorite reactuber to play a game
player count today peaking over 330k. insanity, and well deserved
6:50 Here's the thing about close quarters combat in Helldivers. EVERY faction will paste you if you get too close. It's just that the automatons have more units dedicated to killing you from far away and only a few that are frenziedly rushing across the map to murder you. If you try to get up close and personal make no mistake, while they might give you a curious glance if you decidedly run in, they'll still more than happily krump your ass.
It's less of a change in your loadout/weaponry that's going to matter because unfortunately at the higher levels, the good stuff works across the board. The shotgun he's describing will work just as good on the bots as it will the bugs. But if you're used to taking cover and looking out for rockets, it can be a little jarring to suddenly have to fight an enemy that doesn't care about any of that and just banzai charges you with full abandon.
It’s so refreshing to play a game that’s different yet feels so familiar. Something I can’t explain. All I know is I’m having a blast! I just hope they can fix these server issues soon
I can't get the Helldivers II theme out of my head! So good ❤️🔥
would be so cool if they made a raid of some sort maybe with multiple teams working through different parts of a map doing mechanics and ending in a final battle where all the teams come together.
A cool future event could be a human planet rebelling and them having similar human weaponry. Also, a cool stratagem could be the ability to call in a pelican with SEAF marines as sort of friendly cannon fodder.
There's some talk about the difficulty of those Automaton defense missions being bugged. I believe that the insane is difficulty intended. It's almost as if we're not supposed to win. At some point, we may have to fight back from the edge of total annihilation. Enemy factions are probably going to take over the map. And that concept as a game play loop is insanely cool.
I like how the direction is decided by actual people and are managing the game
Playing the game, I'm enjoying it a lot. Have been focused on fighting the bot for the past couple of days, and it's basically space vietnam XD. Great time.
They can feel easier in any difficulty because it depends on the certain patrols that you anger and if you take them out fast enough
I couldn't get into a game this morning because the servers were full. Nuff said
I love freedom.
Spreading democracy, one orbital laser strike at a time
Helldivers 1 also had mech and tank call-ins as well as a lot of different weapon types. So I think this has a lot of room for growth, game content wise as well as player numbers.
They can also influence the meta with new enemy types, adding new strategems etc
The Major Order dealing with the Automotons seems like one we’re supposed to fail because it’s being made super hard even on lower difficulties with a full party. Feels like that would be the first part of the story of Super Earth getting invaded.
That's exactly what I told my friends after the first time we tried the defense mission. The devs already compared the galactic war in HD2 to a tabletop rpg. I think for the story, the player base is gonna lose the invasions. I'm hoping super earth defense missions are crazy. Like upped squad sizes or maybe multiple squads in the same instance. Like 60 helldivers defending a city from countless waves of whatever faction is invading.
Apparently that mission was bugged making the bots just constantly spawn in with no breaks. I also thought it was intentionally difficult to make people worried about the Automatons
did 3 on level 6. they fixed the endless spawning.
@@z34567890123456 my group of three had no problems up to level 6 on every defense mission except the evacuate key personnel mission or whatever it’s called. For some reason that mission was insane, so it was just bugged?
Luke’s word of the day:
Divestment
The difficulty seems to be on a planet to planet or a mission to mission basis. On medium, I would encounter the bile spitters over and over on one mission, and then see none on another mission with the same difficulty. I actually kinda like that tho. Keeps you on ur toes and not knowing what to expect.
Regarding your take on 04:30 in Helldivers 1 there were regular events were u fight on superearth itself against the enemies of liberty. So thats defenitly gonna happen someday
For a game with so many players I dont get why after looking for a game to join after 6 minutes of waiting nothing showed up. Its fun when you have a group of people but its hard to find players if you dont have friends
server problems because of so many players
Try turning off cross play and then hosting your own games, when I do that I usually fill up pretty quickly.
there's tons of potential if they invest in the game. Could introduce clans with a ladder system, expand the map, get an inter-clan war room to coordinate where maybe the devs can assign medals, titles and rewards to best performing clans on a weekly basis. Clan rewards would be stat based, and clan internal rewards could be leaderboard orientated/ladder (in a way that encourages cooperation though). Huge potential for a live service PvE game
The achievements has a achievement called "Extractinating the Countryside" - Play a planet defense mission. So yes indeed, there will definitely be earth defense missions.
Last night was insane. Servers were full for 6 hours. I had to wait until 1am to get a single game in
I never even thought about what happens if the terminids and autos mix. I can't wait
paycheck comes monday, just need to be a lil patiant
Getting it tomorrow, super exited
Smart as hell on them making the game 40$ as well that helped get the game started
I think it would be cool to see factions fighting each other when you go to liberate a planet
Such a fun game. They did a good job.
Helldivers 2: 400k players daily just on PC...
ChoppaDistrictGaming in the live chat: "Hell divers is being played because playstation has no fun multiplayer games"
Dude is literally on copium for life support!
I’ve never heard of a game company actually hiring after they release a game as opposed to straight cleaning house like they do every time
It's amazing how fast it blew up... I'm waiting for a server as I type even.
God Damn it this is not my type of game, I am a usual solo RPG nerd, but I HAVE to buy this game to support a team like this. Let's Fucking GO!!
Same here to be fair. Bought the game last nighty played one mission before work. And let me tell you if you've ever wanted to feel like a clone trooper without playing battle front 2 and give money to EA that they definitely dont need.... This is it.
Dude, my only reticence is that I'm a solo gamer, none of my fam or friends play. I get you can play this solo with randos but I would NOT dig that. When I can get with a squad that wants to play, I'm all in. All the way. It'll happen. I'm buying it either way. You have to support a dev team like this.
Not a console fan boy but as an Xbox player I’m feeling a bit salty because I know that PlayStation is better.
As a PlayStation player, I love cross play and I don’t care if Spider-Man or The Last of Us comes to Xbox because the original Halo trilogy is my all time favorite.
@@dirtyhank5330you don’t care if spider man comes to Xbox? Who said anything about that happening?
To be fair, none of the consoles are really a winner nowadays! All gamers are getting the short end of the straw...
That's sucks I thought it was on all platform since its on steam too. Maybe they'll relese it for other platforms in future. Have one friend who has xbox but got a playstation so I can play co op with my other bros
Then buy a Playstation and buy xbox games on it. Who cares about the plastic box. You literally have the option of 2 in 1.
As a helldivers 1 player I'm not at all surprised at the success of the game the first one was phenomenal the thing that turned most away was the top down view just hope they get the server situation under control soon couldn't even play the game today unfortunately just couldn't get on, and on content for the game there is a huge amount of weapons, strategems and vehicles missing from helldivers 2 that were in helldivers 1 and if the war goes the same as the first game when all the home world are liberated super earth gets attacked
I’m so happy for the Helldivers 2 devs! And I’m loving the game. On the other hand it’s making me a little frustrated that Microsoft didn’t see this kind of game as a perfect Halo spinoff idea… ODSTs or Spartan 3s dropping onto planets fighting factions of Covenant, Banished, Flood, human Separatists, rogue Forerunner constructs, etc. The lore of Halo is ripe for this kind of game…
I’d also love to see Warframe implement some ideas from this game too!
It’s a great idea, but great ideas are dime-a-dozen, and 343 would’ve fumbled no matter how great a concept you give them.
This game has so much potential
Proof if ever that if you build it they will come. Stop the nonsense!!
I had a stroke trying to read that
@@ozzydior edited the message to still be rickety as hell to read 😂
I've been thinking for a while now about an awesome mission idea.
I call it "The Front lines". You get 40 hell divers, big map, 1 objective. Eliminate 1000-2000 terminids. Just absolute warfare of players mowing down enemies together. Higher difficulties means less enemies to destroy but they're bigger and have increased health.
Just an idea
Man, me and my friends had to fight our way up a rocky hill with no cover and the bots just kept spawning the Dreadnoughts it was traumatizing. lmao
I wouldn't know how good the game is I haven't been able to get on a server in 3 days I'm about to put up a very negative review about such a thing I've seriously been unable to play to keep saying servers at capacity just let us play solo payed 60 dollars for a game i cannot play
I’ve had no issues, weird
60 bucks? It's 40

3 days? That's strange. The most I've heard from a friend was 20 minutes. We just sat and waited until he loaded in.
i played about 15hrs already and had only 1 time issue where i waited 10min for queue, then i looked up on discord that they are fixing it, it was fixed quite fast so i dont know what u smoking
im early af with this one lol
Indeed we are
That gets me really excited. I was a bit worried about what would happen once the glorious army of freedom had fully pushed back the termanids and automatons. I am excited to see more
We were looking out the front window of the ship down at the planet and thinking dam imagin if you could look down at your drop location from this view.
I would love to see the game expand in all avenues. Be that expanded content. New weapons and hopefully some kind of vehicles. Also, secondary weapons could use some love. I'd be excited to have a reasonable melee option for secondary for small mobs when you get overrun.
Game is so fun. Server was suffering hard yesterday. A lot people could not even log onto the game and play and when they did, progression wasn’t showing and buggy gameplay followed by frequent crashes. Man I hope they fix this if even possible
It’s really great to see. They received great feedback and are confident. I hope the success of this and BG3 finally start to get us out of the AAA plague we’ve been in for the past generation or two.
I personally hope they add like boss raids or something with a massive amount of players, that sieges would be sick
they deserve the success the game is honestly incredible
It was 330k 1 or 2h ago, but servers, matchmaking, nothing works and now the number is dropping
yah but you gotta realzie is that’s there’s always gonna be drops and ups also there’s bugs with matchmaking rn so when they fix that they’ll get another boost of players
8:47 the poing is really good. its just that companys dont want to put the work in actually creating encounters and enemy types they focus on thousands and thousands of loot types and never make anything to use that loot on.
Whenever I was on this morning, I did some math of who all was on the planets and had about 350,000+ Helldivers. Now whether or not they were active or idling, I don't know, but you love to see it. Hopefully they can keep fixing the servers quickly as the problems arise like they did today/last night. My friends and I were stonewalled with issues last night but this morning we were playing and progressing just fine.
I want to see 3 way battles where automatons, super earth, and the bugs fight it out.
Don't forget about Emabrk studios and their game the finals! Their publisher said in quarter earnings report, theyre putting millions into marketing and evelopment, and WEEKLY UPDATES... im in love with these two games
I played the game for 6 hours straight yesterday there were some connection issues for some of my friends due to servers being at capacity but i had a blast.
I read from a data miner that these updates are mainly to prevent people from cheating mainly and not to fix stuff we are dealing now regarding server side or other stuff people are dealing with.
Getting up close with a shotgun against the automatons while blasting Kickstart My Heart or Free Bird is so fun
I'd love to see a dinosaur/reptile faction, or a tremors style graboids giant worm faction that just move around under the ground.
That’s crazy, I’m happy for them I played for a about 5 levels then bought the deluxe upgrade to support the devs
They did say, that they have control over the galactic map and can drop some surprise for us.
Played on suicide mission difficulty for the bugs depending of what the mission is it's not that difficult but trying to do objectives that have multiple locations you have to go full democracy
I’m excited to play this game but I’m waiting on some other expenses as well as the servers to increase in size. Been watching gameplay and I am thoroughly impressed.
11:23 in the same difficulty you’ll find a spread of actual difficulty cause every mission has its own things going on, like we got fucked by the stratagem scramble at the same time as cranking up the difficulty cause we didn’t know to check that
hope they add tanks and helicopter type vehicles for luke limited use and are summined using a drop zone type mechanic
I played my first match last night and got swarmed by the robots haha
Damn I wish I could at least start the tutorial, my ps5 almost shut itself down while I waited to connect to a server lol
I think the price helped a lot as well. People see the 3 in the beginning and pull the trigger
Love to see indies and mid-size devs succeed. They've been crushing it for at least the last decade.
I'm glad they are doing well. I hope everyone that helped it's success lands on their feet when they're laid off.
