Helldivers 2's upcoming update won't be a total game changer, but it will put the beleaguered online shooter back on the right path, says developer Arrowhead Games.
In case your ears have thus far evaded the din of protest from freedom fighters everywhere, Helldivers 2 players have been pretty upset with the state of the game generally since the controversial Escalation of Freedom update, although the brunt of the complaints seem to be about balancing. In response to the backlash, director Mikael E pledged to turn things around in 60 days by addressing the overall approach to balancing, fire damage, ragdolling, and primary weapon combat. This is all in addition to bug fixes and performance improvements.
