i feel like a majority has been blaming Sony and not Arrowhead.
just what ive seen.

isarai12d ago

Same, not sure where they were looking

Arrowhead's CEO is awesome and so transparent; they're demonstrating they're a gamer-first studio and will stand by our side even with a publishing partner as big as Sony.

I haven't seen anyone blaming Arrowhead except the dumb "but you knew!" takes... Which are useless, it's still the publisher that listed it for sale in unsupported countries.

northpaws12d ago

but when they review bombs, it hurts arrowhead, not Sony

gold_drake11d ago

it hurts sony just as much.

I think we've already moved past it but hey gotta remind everyone what direction to throw shade where they were already throwing it.

DarXyde12d ago

Is anyone blaming Arrowhead?

That would be news to me.

TheColbertinator12d ago

I do. Sony is a pox on the gaming industry.

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.

rippermcrip11h ago

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.

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.

i love how they do this, real consequences etc.

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
