A large part of the Helldivers 2 community is more than pleased with the addition of a new weapon that is probably the best in a long time. The rocket launcher called Commando can destroy practically any enemy, whether medium or large.
Users, in general, are quite pleased with this, but it seems that this new weapon still lacks power, specifically with certain enemies. For example, the Devastator’s shield can still withstand the impact of a missile from this weapon, which doesn’t make sense compared to other enemies.
The Community is Unsure How This Weapon Works With Certain Helldivers 2 Enemies
Even though it is one of the best additions in recent months in terms of arsenal, the new Commando rocket launcher in Helldivers 2 still doesn’t seem powerful enough to defeat certain more common enemies.
This rocket launcher can take down giant enemies and much more powerful ones than any other weapon, but there is one common enemy in particular that this weapon seems unable to overcome.
One of the most common robots in the Automaton army seems to be invulnerable to the power of this weapon due to its shield. This has led part of the community to not understand the studio’s choice, specifically with this enemy.
So you’re telling me, that a commando can take out a fabricator with one shot, but can’t break through a heavy devastator’s shield?

In a Reddit post, a user shared a video demonstrating how this specific enemy can withstand multiple missiles from the weapon without encountering any issues, thanks to its shield.
Arrowhead Game Studios Will Have to Make the Necessary Adjustments

Clearly, many users responded to this post, making it quite viral, asserting that the Devastator’s shields are truly indestructible. Helldivers 2 players know the limitations they have with certain enemies, and this kind of revelation is not surprising.
The most implausible thing about this weapon is that it can destroy a Fabricator without problems, but the enemy’s shield suffers no damage.
This post continues the discussion, as numerous players share their perspectives on the effectiveness of this specific weapon and the various ways Automatons can evade certain weapons.
The studio has shown several times that the balance between enemies is quite different depending on the weapon and how the user shoots them. That is why most players in this title prefer to fight against the bugs, which are easier to annihilate and understand the damage they take.
The Helldivers 2 community remains quite active and continues to give constant feedback to the studio on how to improve certain features. For their part, the people at Arrowhead Game Studios are waiting to launch their next content as soon as it is ready and reaches the quality levels they expect.
The game continues to gradually add all kinds of weapons and mechanics to make the gaming experience more varied over time.
