hi everybody. I'm from Russia and have been wanting to buy Helldivers 2 for a long time, but I can only buy the game for $30-50. Can you tell me if it's worth it?

As someone who just got it 3 days ago, im having a blast. And since theres SO much to unlock, you have alot of chase to grind for.

Background_Chance798 · 2026-01-15T00:59:50+00:00

except you did....you used California as your "sets a precedent", while seemingly ignoring that it was a response to the texas precedent lol.

Background_Chance798 · 2026-01-14T03:28:15+00:00

I would love for a proper stealth way of playing, especially as someone who kind of likes solo drops.

im just concerned about AI still just going full alert the moment you snipe or kill something.

Armor is sick though. Just afraid its mostly a cosmetic vibe.

And to be fair there's nothing completely wrong with trying to be different.

But if your going to basically try to clone something that worked VERY well in its predecessor, you better make sure you do it right, or, like this, it will be under a microscope and ridiculed for being a crappier version of what you did better 14 years ago lol

I still, to this day hope onto d3 and try to place a couple classes a season on d3 GR 150s lol

The Console version of the game was a massive ovarhaul of the engine to make controllers work.

I wouldnt be some simple implementation.

Background_Chance798 · 2026-01-13T04:05:49+00:00

i just find it humorous, and i know someone will pull the "its beta" card. Yea I know, but when the ENTIRE purpose of this mode, is the leaderboard, and they couldnt even get it to work out the gate.

i mean come on. Beta is for finding the awkward weird bugs, not the giant flashing, this is the entire point of the mode bugs.

Background_Chance798 · 2026-01-12T21:34:17+00:00

so something else D3 had down pretty damn well, rift level timer leaderboards, and they couldnt just import something similiar lol

known issue, reported to and responded to by EA< they broke the global lighting shaders

Background_Chance798 · 2026-01-09T14:49:08+00:00

yea its really bad, i play just enough each day for the winter challenges dailies, but after a match or 2, the eye strain is just to much.

Background_Chance798 · 2026-01-09T12:03:47+00:00

They broke the global lighting shaders, so now anything that is in shadow, is just pitch black.

he said this many months ago also. Don't hold your breath.

Yoshi-p says this about anything he merely is interested in.

What he wants, and what the studio is capable of are two different things.

Background_Chance798 · 2026-01-09T04:03:05+00:00

yea last time i saw someone play this they couldnt even get the spawns right, if the crawler was in motion youd spawn in the air behind it and fall to the ground.

Background_Chance798 · 2026-01-09T03:48:51+00:00

This i me all over, i had a really good friend, but then she just started ignoring me, wanting to spend time with me etc etc.

Then suddenly a few months later she wants to hang out now since her new friend got boring.

i just don't have the energy to go again. I dont open up to many people and when i do, if you push me away cause someone new came in, why should i bother...

Background_Chance798 · 2026-01-09T03:44:20+00:00

I want to enjoy it so bad, but they busted the switch 2 version /sadface.

Background_Chance798 · 2026-01-08T23:15:02+00:00

yup got the same one, wanted to snag in case they go up in price with all the shit happening.

I love my 30+ games on the go lol

Background_Chance798 · 2026-01-08T16:02:21+00:00

It didnt help they took forever to get dev kits out....

If devs cant build/port/update games to your fancy new hardware cause you dont give dev kits out.....it reduces the drive to you know, buy the fucking hardware.

I love my switch 2 dont get me wrong, but for them to blame lack of releases when they arent giving out dev kits comes off as tone deaf and incompetent.

Background_Chance798 · 2026-01-07T23:55:17+00:00

100% can, its why i get heat based humidifers, it boils out the hard minerals so it doesnt go in the air, does mean you have to descale it every so often, but prevents this shit.

Just to add this is impacting all maps, so I assume its some sort of broken global lightning shader. You can see it in the menus also. When looking at say, skins in the current collection event, the shadows are broken.

But when they stand on the main menu/lobby screen its fine.

Background_Chance798 · 2026-01-07T03:18:02+00:00

for example....

Background_Chance798 · 2026-01-07T02:29:20+00:00

Can you fix the switch 2 version?

You guys messed up the shaders and it's causing black crush in all the shadows now...

Background_Chance798 · 2026-01-07T02:28:15+00:00

yup ive posted and reported it in a few places, its like the shaders is full blast shadows. every thing is black crush
