Helldivers 2 CEO knows "we're not getting a passing grade on performance and stability" right now, but another 60-day action plan wouldn't be enough to fix everything

Helldivers 2 Warbond.

Once upon a time, when inconsistent balance updates, not flying dragons, were the biggest threat to democracy, Arrowhead Game Studios deployed a 60-day action plan full of patches to get Helldivers 2 in tip-top shape. But with similarly sweeping complaints aimed at the game's new Into the Unjust update, Arrowhead's CEO Shams Jorjanni doesn't think another 60-day barrage of quick fixes would be enough.

The Into the Unjust update has a ton of cool ideas, including creepy underground tunnels that've been housing those pesky bugs, venom-spewing dragon aliens that stalk the skies, and a massive, practically unstoppable sand worm. It's also made performance problems more prominent, though, even prompting Jorjani to admit the game's "technical debt is crippling" and the studio is "trying to get our s**t in order."
