The Helldivers 2 community is fighting about the bugs; there are even some fans that are defending the devs
Less than two months after its release, Helldivers 2 has emerged as one of this year’s most popular games. This title is one of the most concurrently played games on Steam every day, with almost 300,000 players. Helldivers 2 is only below Dota 2 and Counter-Strike 2 in the ranking of the Valve gaming platform. Aside from the friendly communities in videogames, some players are not very happy about the bugs and crashes that the game has with some simple action like grabbing an object.
Reddit user THE1RECKER2 is not very happy with the community and how they are treating the dev team; he pointed out that Arrowhead Game Studios is really working a lot to make the best experience possible. They add a lot of new content every day.

He said, “Yes the game has bugs and it crashes but it almost seems like a lot of you people don’t understand that there’s like one dev for every 4000 players.” He mentioned that there are few devs for such a big game; he only talked about patience from the players.
The community has to have a little more patience with the studio
There is a popular bug that has to do with the SSSD grab. After the player grabs this item, the character bugs, and it is very similar to T-pose. You can still play normally without this bug affecting the gameplay. The community in general has not too many problems with this particular recurrent bug, but there are other players that don’t like these crashes or even have the patience to endure them.
Helldivers 2 will probably add new stratagems soon; according to leaks, the studio is working on adding a recon vehicle to make the extraction easier. There are also new powerful stratagems that will call for even bigger bombs. These new weapons will have a bigger radius of damage.
What are your thoughts about the bugs and crushes in the game?
