HELLDIVERS™ 2 News

Helldivers 2 enemy spawns appear to be broken after the last big patch

Spawns might be too difficult in Helldivers 2 right now. Multiple players are calling on Arrowhead to nerf the current spawn rates across the game, saying that with the most recent patch there hasn't really been a fix to how many enemies we're facing. I've been having a similar problem for a few weeks now, and Arrowhead is now aware of apparent spawn issues, even if the team is unsure how bad it actually is.

"Sorry bro" but a Helldivers 2 story mode is "not happening"

Those of you hoping for Helldivers 2 to get a dedicated story mode are out of luck, as Arrowhead has absolutely zero plans for one.

Helldivers 2 is obviously one of 2024's biggest games, in part because it's just good fun, but also because of the way its story has evolved over the past few months. It's a story that could only be told in a live-service game, because of the collaborative nature of its various tasks and missions. That hasn't stopped some players wanting a dedicated story mode, though, with one player even asking Arrowhead's brand new CEO Shams Jorjani if such a thing could be created to play with friends. Jorjani had a quite blunt but understandable response: "Not happening. Sorry bro. That's like building an entirely new game."

I can't blame Jorjani for such a response, having to create entire missions with their own unique narratives, on top of maintaining a live-service game, is a tough task for any team, but especially so for a studio like Arrowhead, which really didn't expect the game to blow up as much as it has. Besides, the whole appeal of the game is really the stories you get to tell your friends when you kill a bug in a cool way.

Sea of Thieves от Microsoft второй месяц подряд становится самой скачиваемой игрой на PlayStation 5 в Европе. Кроме того, пиратская адвенчура сместила Helldivers 2 и поднялась на первую строчку в Северной Америке.

"Извини, бро": Helldivers 2 для PlayStation 5 и ПК не получит традиционную сюжетную кампанию

Разработчики Helldivers 2 не планируют добавлять в мультиплеерный шутер для PlayStation 5 и ПК традиционную сюжетную кампанию. Об этом сообщил новый глава Arrowhead Game Studios Шамс Джорджани, отвечая фанату, который хотел бы увидеть в проекте эпичную историю с захватывающими моментами и драматическими эпизодами — и пережить её с друзьями в кооперативном прохождении.

"All planets are now Malevelon Creek" - Helldivers 2 players reckon the latest patch may have delivered a difficulty spike

A huge Helldivers 2 patch dropped yesterday, June 13, bringing with it more tweaks and changes than you can properly read through in less than half an hour. While it's generally gone down a treat among players, the revisions Arrowhead made to enemy and patrol spawning look like they might be the exception, with folks complaining of a sharp difficulty spike.

If you were busy washing your hair yesterday, not only did the hefty patch Arrowhead's had in the works for a little while now arrive, but the Viper Commandos warbond also deployed right on time. Sadly, it doesn't seem like being able to don a beret is helping players who're complaining of a post-patch increase in deaths and rage quitting.

As part of the patch, Arrowhead toned down the amount of heavily armored enemies which spawn during higher difficulty missions, filling in the gaps with more smaller enemies, as well as reverting patrol spawning back to what it was like prior to patch 01.000.300.
