HELLDIVERS™ 2 News
Helldivers 2's Galactic War looks like it could be headed back to the game's most infamous planet, and grizzled vets are wondering what fresh horrors may await
If you're one of the Helldivers 2 who's long boasted about being a veteran of the game's most famous battle, or are a newer recruit who's only ever heard the stories, it seems you could be in luck. Arrowhead's latest message as the war rages on suggests the fighting's headed back to the corner of the galaxy that's home to the infamous Malevelon Creek.
Yee-naw: Helldivers 2's director seems to be riding with Arrowhead's controversial anti-cowboy hat stance, boldly declaring "people don't wear hats on helmets"

Helldivers 2's cowboy-themed Warbond, Borderline Justice, has just arrived in-game, meaning you can put on your spurs and get ready to ride out to kill some bugs or bots. However, its armours don't boast one key bit of cowboy kit - a stetson. Thankfully, a modder has stepped up on that front for folks on PC.
"Balance is a myth" reckons Helldivers 2 director Pilestedt, adding that if "you're an idiot" if you view smoothing out all the chaos as "the method for success"
Balancing has been one of the hottest topics during Helldivers 2's rollercoaster lifespan to this point - an endless source of debate and controversy among players, especially whenever Arrowhead's been seen to deliver more nerfs than buffs. However, the game's director doesn't reckon trying to strike a perfect balance is something devs should focus too heavily on, because it's a "myth".
