Arrowhead Studios - This patch continues the focus on stability and matchmaking. We are separately working on the server issues that we’re facing at the moment. We know this is the highest urgency for most players and we treat them very seriously.
An existing community manager for Helldivers 2 has acknowledged the 'unfortunate' departure of Spitz following the whole PSN fiasco.
With Arrowhead's reputation for nerfing strong primaries, players are nervous about purchasing the next Helldivers 2 Warbond Polar Patriots.
While some see an increase in Helldivers 2's overall squad size as a positive, several think otherwise, with both arguments having valid points.
Honestly, I don't think the squad size should be increased. Don't break what works. The only thing that sucks is that if you have more than 4 friends online at the same time. It's like "I guess I didn't report for duty early enough" lol.
