Three weeks after the game’s release, Arrowhead’s now ex-ceo Johan Pilestedt gave some insight into the development of Helldivers 2. He talked about the studio’s approach to its monetization and live service model.
Amongst the things that he mentioned was that despite its live service nature, the main goal of the game was to provide a full experience to players for its $40 price tag. But one of his comments regarding the game’s future caught players’ eyes.
Could Pilestedt’s Words Be Hinting At Something?
There are a lot of mixed reactions, but the community seems hopeful for change. | Arrowhead
In his interview with PC Gamer, Pilestedt talked about his vision for the future where continued support for Helldivers 2 could potentially rely on player contribution. He talked about a model where, in the second or third year, new free content would be added with new enemies and missions.

Helldivers 2 has been in the trend ever since its release back in February of 2024. The game quickly got the attention of gamers wanting a fun time shooting robots and aliens with friends. It follows a live service business model in its design and has been very successful despite live service games generally not being liked.
Arrowhead’s former CEO Johan Pilestedt has talked about the approach that Helldivers 2 took in its identity as a ‘live service’ game. He says that despite its live service nature, Helldivers 2’s core focus is to deliver a complete experience to players with its $40 price.

The next Premium Warbond in Helldivers 2, Viper Commandos, will be released soon and it’s safe to say that the community is very excited about it. The Warbond features 2 new weapons and 3 new utilities but there is something that caught everyone’s attention: the K-2 Throwing Knife.
Without a doubt, the concept of throwing a knife at an enemy was popularized among gamers after John “Soap” MacTavish used it to kill General Shepherd at the end of 2009’s Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. Since then, the throwing knife has been featured in every Call of Duty game.

Helldivers 2 has been a massive hit for Arrowhead Game Studios. Right now, this game is probably the most popular title in the world in terms of concurrent player counts. To keep up the momentum of this popularity, the developers are always working to bring out new Warbonds.
Having said that, Arrowhead will also be surfacing brand new updates every month with a new Warbond. Just like the all-new upcoming Viper Comandos Warbond, a new update is coming with it and is probably the biggest patch of the game since its launch. But the biggest question right now is, when?

Arrowhead Game Studios’ Helldivers 2 provides players with exciting fast-paced PvE combat but sometimes it can get out of hand. Players often find themselves getting mauled by enemies while constantly getting shot. The community has started complaining about all these things as they make the gaming experience a little chaotic and frustrating.

Players face this more on Automaton-infested planets and to tackle this situation, the community is asking Arrowhead to reduce flinch and ragdoll. Ragdoll often prevents you from using the stim or running away from enemies. Arrowhead should address this issue as the Illuminate invasion is right around the corner.

Helldivers 2 keeps things interesting by giving players new missions and incentives to work towards, and seasonal updates are a huge factor in this. As of late, there’s an incoming threat to the game’s universe, and players have involuntarily done something that might trigger an event further down the line.
The Illuminate (an alien race from the previous game) is about to make a comeback, and a player has found yet another hint that it’s time helldivers started preparing themselves.
Helldivers 2 Players Created Something They’re Not Ready For The game is about to witness the arrival of an old enemy.
Another day, another mission for Helldivers to test their mettle. Except, one mission felt eerily different when things went super wrong. As it turns out, when players were tasked with freeing the Meridia supercolony of Terminids, things took a turn and a black hole came to be.

Arrowhead’s Helldivers 2 is one of the most popular tactical shooters that’s been keeping players on their toes with its intense co-op gameplay and strategic depth. However, player count has been dwindling for quite some time now.
Players can use a huge arsenal of weapons and stratagems to destroy bugs and Terminids on the quest to spread democracy for Super Earth. Recently, a user dropped a bombshell with a killer new stratagem concept that’s got the community buzzing.
Johan Pilestedt might be left biting his hand later if he passes on the chance to incorporate this in the game.
This Stratagem is Hard to Pass Fan-made stratagem could be key to solving the ongoing Helldivers 2 player dwindling issue.
A user on Reddit shared some sweet visuals showing how the stratagem would work, and it’s safe to say that their idea’s fresh enough to shake up the gameplay.

In an epic display of bravery, Helldivers 2 player Lord Arthur made a sacrifice that will be remembered forever. His heroic act has been hailed as the “most heroic save in Super Earth history” across social media, with fans and players sharing their awe and admiration for his bravery.

Dune Awakening, an upcoming open-world survival Mmo developed by Funcom, has achieved a staggering milestone. Months before its official release, the game has amassed over 1 million “wishlists” on Steam already.
This astonishing feat distinguishes the title from other highly anticipated games which have not reached similar figures at this stage of their development. Such strong early signs show that the gaming community is eagerly awaiting the upcoming game.
Dune: Awakening – A Desert Storm of Anticipation Dune Awakening has become the most-anticipated game of 2024.
The hype on X surrounding the game is electrifying! The game’s official social media channels have been buzzing with activity, particularly following the recent announcement of reaching 1 million wishlists on Steam.

The Helldivers 2 community’s efforts have finally paid off as the Terminid Supercolony on the Meridia planet is finally destroyed after players spent hours injecting Dark Fluid into the planet’s core. Super Earth has announced that the planet is gone, leaving a “beautiful black hole” in its place, however, it seems like this black hole has swallowed more than just Meridia.
Helldivers 2 (via Arrowhead Game Studios)
A Helldivers 2 player has done enough math to prove that the new black hole seems to be bigger than it was expected to be. As the game has stated that everything within several billion kilometers was sucked into the black hole, it can be concluded that it has consumed the “entirety of its stellar system,” which includes every planet and star in that range. This proves that the newly formed black hole isn’t the result of consuming just Meridia, but also many more planets and stars.

Co-op shooters such as Helldivers 2 require a fair bit of coordination among teammates to ensure the success of the mission. While many may choose to go solo and pay no attention to team dynamics, they will soon learn that overwhelming enemy forces can only be handled through unity and teamwork.
As such, each teammate then has a specific role to play on the battlefield. While some may choose to be front-line soldiers, others may choose to take on the role of artillery to hit big targets. One class can become virtual matadors, drawing aggression to themselves for better strategizing.

After completing one of the recent Major Orders, Helldivers 2 players were rewarded with a new Stratagem called Exo-49 Emancipator Exosuit. This variation of the Patriot Exosuit features dual auto-cannons that absolutely destroy enemies on the battlefield. Using both Exosuits can be quite entertaining but getting out of it safely is a difficult task. Things can quickly escalate on the battlefield and getting out of these units at the right time is very important if players wish to survive.

Unlike Warhammer 40K single-player campaigns where players control a Space Marine, Operations throws players into a class-based system, allowing for tactical squad composition as each of the six unique classes will have a specific focus and a powerful bespoke weapon.

Helldivers 2 is a title that became an instant hit for an excellent reason. Despite being a live-service game, it has proved itself in the video game fraternity, and despite the Psn ID controversy, which dampened its growth, it is now back to its former glorious status.
The game is set around the premise of the Super Earth being at war with two factions, Automatons and Terminids, separately. The primary agenda is for Super Earth to face any of the two factions at a time, but to turn the chaos to eleven, a fan has suggested a triple-threat conflict.

Even after three months of its release, Helldivers 2 is still quite unstable and buggy. This got worse with the addition of the new Exo-49 Emancipator Exosuit as many players reported that their games crashed after they called in two of these Exosuits at the same time on the battlefield. Not everyone has been facing this problem, but a message from the code team lead has confirmed that this is due to resource management.

Online gaming has gained a lot of traction over the past decade, but every popular game was doomed by toxicity at one point. Now, Arrowhead Game Studios’ Helldivers 2 is suffering from this problem.

While Helldivers 2 has succeeded in doing justice to numerous aspects that other live-service games have recently been failing at, there’s one element that Arrowhead hasn’t managed to get right. The multiplayer shooter comes with a wide range of weapons and stratagems for players to use, but Johan Pilestedt and his team haven’t been able to overcome a crucial part of these features.
Balancing goes a long way in ensuring the longevity of a game such as Helldivers 2, which has gotten worse thanks to some recent patches. However, the community had high hopes for a potential balance patch in the near future, but it shouldn’t hold its breath.

Helldivers 2 blasted onto the gaming scene with a huge bang. At its core, it offered another dose of over-the-top cooperative action on different alien worlds. While the basis is democracy in the name of Super Earth, which is at all times addictive, some cracks began to appear as days went on.
One of the problems projected itself in the form of communication issues between the developers, Arrowhead Game Studios, and the Helldivers 2 community. However, the recent turning of the tide has shown some signs of improvement and fans are loving it.
The Helldivers 2 Community is Outraged at Arrowhead Studios Helldivers 2 is slowly getting better and better once again.
The initial frustration of the community resulted from a lack of clear intel from High Command. Many Helldivers felt the mission objects were shrouded in secrecy, didn’t know what planets to target, and some in-game mechanics were left without explanation, making entire squads scratch their heads.

When Arrowhead Game Studios’ Helldivers 2 first hit the PlayStation store and Steam in February 2024, it instantly became a hit among the gaming community. The game’s action-packed battles combined with engaging co-op gameplay provided players with an entertaining experience. However, over time, the game’s hype has been dying. In fact, today, the game’s not even in the top 20 of Steam’s most-played games chart.

The game’s files suggest that Arrowhead is planning to introduce a new faction to the game called the Illuminate and hopefully, this addition would convince players to check out the game once again. On top of this, Johan Pilestedt, the former CEO of Arrowhead, has assured the fans that his new position at Arrowhead will allow him to focus more on the game with the creative team, so players have hope that Helldivers 2 will climb the charts again.

Throughout the years, DC’s Justice League has remained a focal point of discussions and debates. From its inception to the present day, the film has consistently drawn attention, largely due to the tumultuous events that unfolded behind the scenes during its production.

Helldivers 2 players received a new mandate from the Ministry of Truth and it is a tall order. The players are tasked to permanently put an end to the Terminid threat with the use of a new prototype bioweapon that coincidentally comes from another enemy faction called the Illuminate.
The Ministry made a deal with the devil to end one evil with another but it is war and it is only a matter of time before they will resort to more desperate and questionable methods. Players are about to embark on a journey that could wipe out one faction while enabling a new one.
Helldivers 2 Players will Put an End to the Terminid Threat Helldivers 2 players will defeat one enemy faction with the help of another.
The Terminid faction can be annoying to fight but the gaming community pulled through with a creative idea that would better utilize these enemies for a new mission type.

Arrowhead Game Studios’ Helldivers 2 was a smash hit and is one of the most popular and successful game releases this year. The game has impressed fans and critics alike as it gets things right in almost every aspect that affects a game and its community.
Helldivers 2‘s success proved that live-service titles, when done right, can be successful. This becomes much more important when other highly anticipated games like Rocksteady’s Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League failed, despite being in development for a long time.

The very active Helldivers 2 community is always proposing ideas for new content, like adding characters from other franchises to the game. In a recent Reddit post, a user proposed to add a very familiar face from the Disney universe to the title; this particular character makes sense of the game’s lore.
This specific character originates from the Wreck It Ralph movie, specifically Sgt. Calhoun, a fictional character from a first-person shooter game where players engage in combat with aliens resembling those from the Arrowhead Game Studios IP.

With the Automaton Perafactory on Valyria 5 liberated, Helldivers 2‘s community is now more dedicated than ever to ensuring no other Major Order ends up in failure. After the struggles faced by the game earlier this month, it’s undoubtedly a well-deserved victory.
However, now that players have finally gotten their hands on the Major Order’s reward, the Exo-49 Emancipator Exosuit, some within the community aren’t as happy with the mech as Arrowhead may have hoped.
Helldivers 2’s Latest Stratagem Is Seeing Mixed Reactions Within the Community Mechs have long remained the least viable stratagem at higher levels in Helldivers 2.
Since their introduction in Helldivers 2, mechs have stayed in a somewhat precarious position, either remaining unbalanced or buggy. The trend seems to continue with the Exo-49 Emancipator, Patriot’s successor, as the initial reaction after using the mech has been less than stellar.

There are many Stratagems to choose from in Helldivers 2 but there is one that will make players extremely overpowered on the battlefield. The Faf-14 Spear is an anti-tank homing missile launcher that locks on certain enemies. With enough ammo, players can easily take out enemy outposts and various enemies from a distance.
Helldivers 2 (via Arrowhead Game Studios)
Although this weapon is extremely powerful, there are certain circumstances under which it works. For example, the target needs to be fully visible in the reticle to lock on so walls or rocks will prevent it from locking onto things. When launched, the missile is highly guaranteed to hit, no matter how far players are.

Earlier this month, the Helldivers 2 community finally got the Polar Patriots Warbond but it left many players disappointed. The Warbond featured three new primary weapons but unfortunately, they were underpowered. Overall, the Warbond was a huge letdown and players have made it clear on social media that Arrowhead should add new gear, weapons, and Stratagems if they want to save the game from dying.

The Second Galactic War escalated after the Helldivers 2 community failed to complete a recent Major Order and players are now speculating that they will face a fusion of bugs and bots soon. Some players have spotted Terminid bodies on Automatons planets, sparking rumors that Automatons are hunting down the bugs to study them.

Many players have also claimed that some Automatons have flesh-like components inside them, but it is to be noted that the red liquid that spills out of these Automaton units is oil. To back up this theory, some screenshots have been circulating on social media that show some Automaton units have more than just metal inside them. Players believe that these are hints of a crossover between these two factions.

Arrowhead Game Studios’ Helldivers 2 quickly became a phenomenon in the gaming industry but three months after its release, it seems like the game isn’t exciting enough to keep the players hooked as more and more players have stopped playing the game. There are several reasons behind this, including Sony’s Psn account linking policy implementation and lack of innovative gear, weapons, or Stratagems.

Arrowhead has finally realized that players have been begging to see some new items in the game so, the reward for completing the new Major Order is a new form of Exosuit. There is another way to save the game that players have been suggesting: an Xbox release, but it’s hard to see it becoming a reality. Sony is very protective of its property and giving Microsoft an opportunity to release a profitable game like Helldivers is definitely not their style.

Helldivers 2 is in a rough spot right now and Arrowhead Game Studios is struggling to keep the game afloat. PlayStation 5 and PC users are noticing a drastic decline in quality, and some of them have given up the fight for democracy, which leaves the war effort in need of extra manpower.
Fortunately, there is an untapped platform of dedicated players on Xbox. The players have been begging for the developers to port the game on their platform, but Sony is still in control, however, there is a potential slim chance of it being ported if the publisher is unhappy with the player count.

The Helldivers 2 community once again struggled with completing a Major Order and players abandoning the game could be the reason behind it. As compared to its first month, Helldivers 2 has lost a lot of players. The community believes that Arrowhead Game Studios is setting unrealistic goals, that active players just cannot achieve.
Helldivers 2
This last Major Order ordered the players to kill roughly 3.1 billion enemies and players managed to complete roughly 87% of the goal. Just like the previous Major Order, players tried their best to complete it, but it was just not possible. It seems like Arrowhead has finally realized their mistake as the new Major Order will reward players with a new Exosuit, something which should lure back many players.

The game was released on Windows and PlayStation 5, leaving Xbox players wondering why the game wasn’t released on their platform. Sony has published/funded both Helldivers games and it is pretty obvious why they are not willing to share the game with Microsoft.

Three months after the release of Helldivers 2, the game has started losing its players and the best way to prevent this is by releasing the game on Xbox. Sony restricted the fanbase by not releasing the game on Xbox consoles as it would’ve significantly boosted the game’s sales. This decision could keep Helldivers 2 alive as fans are concerned that the game is slowly dying and another failed Major Order has proved that this is true.

The chance to battle for Democracy and liberate worlds saw the PlayStation game become the fastest-selling title with a reported 12 million sales in the first 12 weeks of release.

The Helldivers 2 team probably didn’t expect the game to blow up the way that it did on release. Remember, the servers were in shambles the first few weeks simply because they could not handle the sheer amount of people who wanted to try it out themselves.
Ever since then, the community has continued to grow. However, with this kind of audience comes a lot of toxicity that the Arrowhead Game Studios’ ex-ceo, Johan Pilestedt, refuses to stay silent about.

However, as everything settled down, the game was restored to its GotY contender status and now continues to be played by hundreds of thousands of divers. Johan Pilestedt, Arrowhead’s CEO, recently made a heartfelt statement to fans that aligns with his past actions.

Helldivers 2 staff are always open to new ideas, and the fans certainly haven’t held back from suggesting things. From new Stratagems to unique monster ideas, you name it, and someone’s probably already sketched out a concept design for it.
However, one idea from a superfan of the game is quite different and makes great use of the DualSense controllers. If the game were to come to Xbox, this rad feature is sadly one that Xbox users would have to miss out on.
Helldivers 2 Fan Suggests Idea for the DualSense’s Touchpad
Helldivers 2 could use better touchpad controls, and this fan knows exactly what to do
The PS5 controller, the DualSense, is one of the most interesting controllers out there in the market, especially because of its touchpad. Sensitive to touch, it can track swipes in four directions and has immense potential to be used interestingly.

Live-service games can be tricky to keep going and Helldivers 2 has been doing a fine job for the past few months. However, when developers like Arrowhead have to constantly make changes to their titles, it’s going to be unlikely for the entire player base to be satisfied with the updates.
Despite its popularity, Helldivers 2 also ends up facing balancing problems, and it’s been a while since Arrowhead launched a patch that nerfed numerous weapons to the point where the game started to become less enjoyable than before, but that could change soon.

When going out into the battlefield in Helldivers 2, one needs to be aware of three things: their guns, their squad, and their armor. Gamers will focus heavily on the first two, but armor doesn’t get as much of a spotlight in the title. This might be because it doesn’t stand out as it should!
This sentiment is echoed by a poster on the Helldivers subreddit who has found some inconsistencies in the game’s armor system. Focusing on one aspect that is very prevalent in Souls games, the poster asks a very pertinent question: Why is heavy armor not heavy?
Fans React to Helldivers 2 Heavy Armor’s Staggeringly Low Poise Armor in Helldivers 2 is not as effective as it should be.
Well, calling it poise in this context may not be the same application as in FromSoftware titles, but the idea is the same. Poise refers to how...

Without a doubt, Helldivers 2 is one of the most popular games in the world right now thanks to its action-packed gameplay. The game has many weapons and Stratagems, however, many people still point out that many weapons are still missing. One such weapon is a minigun. Almost every shooting video game has this weapon but Arrowhead still hasn’t added it to the game.

The Mg-206 Heavy Machine Gun is a replacement for it but it’s quite strange that a proper mini-gun wasn’t added to the game at the time of release. Recently, Arrowhead boss, Johan Pilestedt acknowledged a fan concern regarding the assault rifles being underpowered in the game. Hopefully, in the future, this problem will be solved as Pilestedt agrees that assault rifles’ representation has become diluted.

The Helldivers 2 community has managed to find a glitch that allows them to store 4.2 billion grenades. This simple glitch, which works on PC and PS5, can be performed in all missions, all difficulties, and with any type of grenade. Although this glitch gives you an unfair advantage, it allows you to take out all sorts of Terminids or Automatons with ease. In the past, players have tried various grenade glitches and like every time, this one will soon be patched by Arrowhead Game Studios as well.
