On the game’s social media, the development team confirmed numerous changes that are already active. The handling of support items like supply drops, which are always necessary given the large number of enemies on screen, will be one of these changes.

The Helldivers 2 Community Is More Than Pleased With These Additions

Despite the popularity it has achieved in recent months, players have recently been dissatisfied with the current state of Helldivers 2, so they have been actively trying to get the studio’s attention.

Many players believe the game needs a radical change to improve its content. It seems Arrowhead Game Studios is starting to listen to the community and has introduced some changes that will be useful.

In a recent social media post, the studio revealed a couple of changes it will make to the overall gameplay. These changes mainly involve adjustments to certain details that should have been changed from the beginning.

One of these changes will affect the support weapons included among the stratagems. These will now appear immediately once the player makes the request, without making the player wait.

Players Are Satisfied With These New Changes

Fortunately, this is not the only change the game will receive thanks to this new wave of updates from the studio. One of these changes is that the attack stratagems now have a 10% larger radius, meaning they will be much more effective against enemies.

Even though some stratagems already have a gigantic radius, this allows players to defend themselves against large groups of enemies.

These types of changes are always positive, especially because they make players feel heard rather than ignored. The studio is generally trying to make the game as player-friendly as possible, but it is doing so at a much slower pace compared to other larger titles.

This leads to more anxious fans who find it difficult to adhere to the development timelines. The community needs to address the fact that this studio is not that large.

Another major suggestion from fans is for Helldivers 2 to have another class of enemies beyond the Terminids or Automatons. But for now, it seems Arrowhead Game Studios is not planning to apply a major update in the coming months.

You will have to wait longer to see what the studio’s plan is for the game. The community’s expectations for this game in particular must be more realistic.

I'm a big fan of movies and videogames in general. I really love Pokémon and Godzilla. One of my favorite games is The Last of Us, Part II. A compelling and well-written story is always welcome.
