Already the 7th highest grossing Sony published game in history.
Helldivers 2 is already a bigger success in the US than Horizon and The Last of Us.
The real fight begins for Helldivers 2 players after failing a huge Major Order, as Arrowhead ushers in the next chapter of warfare.
If only the game wasn't so barebones. Out of the super fun core gameplay, the game is a barren land. They better make much easier "major orders", because the player base has mostly moved on.
Think people are stupid? What's your favourite thing to do besides lying?
I think that A lot of the player was snap out of existence, after 177 regions was forced to go dark.
In those regions in which they took the game down... that was only for new purchases. Anyone who already bought it could play just fine.
im not sure where u get your numbers from, but there are still a massive amount of people playing ha
I really hope they expand the war to where our foes get to super earth like in helldivers 1 I’d imagine the game by then would have tons of stratagems and the vehicles by then
It’s important to establish both successes and failures in order to make community engagement feel genuinely impactful, and not just a predetermined outcome on rails.
They obviously have a bunch of content waiting for deployment, and they plan to trickle it out at whatever pace keeps the community at their desired size.
The game is still much, much more popular than they ever planned. And antitank mines feel like small potatoes compared to the vehicles and new enemies we know are down the road.
Buckle up for a long term plan.
Helldivers 2 can take a long time to figure out every mechanic in the game, so Reddit users have shared their most helpful tips.
The main tip that I would tell a new player is: know how and when to pick your fights. Sometimes it's better to avoid a skirmish altogether and focus on the missions. And if you are indeed starting a fight, try to end is as soon as possible and focus on the smallers enemies first, because if you get rid of all those bastards then they won't call for backup and you'll have time to finish the bigger threats
Helldivers 2 is now on the Game Boy Color, sort of.
2 platforms. Almost half on PC. Then where would the other half be?
Author thinks that the game would be as successful without PS5 sales? Really?
The game is played by and enjoyed by players on both platforms. The matchmaking is great. Why try to make a divide over some silly metric like "sales on a specific platform?"
Don't know why people keep saying this is the proof of every PS game is coming to PC day 1 as it's an anomaly as all the other PS games on PC sell significantly less. Live service games day 1 on PC is what's happening from now on and i believe was already confirmed.
But i was surprised that ghost of tsushima was in the top sellers list just below spider man and god of war games. I didn't know it sold more than horizon and last of us in the US. Go sucker punch.
Multiplatform trend goes both ways. Games like Diablo, Baldur's Gate which used to be primarily designed for keyboard and mouse, are now selling pretty well on consoles too, I don't hear people saying console is eating up pc.
