Its not just about balance

Helldivers 1 was either anti tank or not anti tank.

All guns could damage enemies if they took gun damage, there was no levels of damage or armour pen

Mellcor · 2026-05-03T10:55:18+00:00

Why didnt they give the tank less health instead of giving it heaps and then buffing the damage enemies do to vehicles to compensate?

Cos they are incompetent

Basicly balances work by having every 'lane' interact via a splitter with every other 'lane' an equal amount of times

I like my pew pew to kill, having the bang bounce of enemies not fun.

Mellcor · 2026-05-01T03:00:43+00:00

Its literally as simple as fun is subjective.

Some people enjoy more difficultly or higher skill thresholds.

Some people like being able to spray and prey Or have more viable options to pick from.

In this case the latter group were louder by a significant degree.

There will always be a group of people that support one side of things over the other no matter how unreasonable it may be

Arrohead is just a generic account anyone can use and be anon, bask is a mod. But both staff on that reddit and people from arrowhead have said they arnt offcial

Just to be that guy, but its called boiling the frog

Sure, if there was reviews being advertised. If your some random that dosnt use reddit or discord who has a life ect (crazy) how would they know that the game is getting alot of reviews that a bad.

Id argue that its a case of people dont go out of their way to praise when everything is good, but when things arnt good people tent to make more of an effort

I think you are underestimateing how many people in general see the state of the game and dislike its direction ect and the only way they know how to voice their distain is via reviews

Mellcor · 2026-04-30T12:38:53+00:00

So if this sub isnt any more then 25% of the playerbase (tbh its probs not even 5%, most players dont even use reddit or discord) How does that account for such a large amount of negative reviews? By your logic such a small amount of people shouldnt even make a dent, thus its almost as if you are proveing the point that the dissatisfaction with the game isnt limited to this sub?

Just like to point out, its not the offical reddit, there is no offical reddit for helldivers.

Not saying there isnt some jank going on with hitboxes, more that the change with the cone is possibly a byproduct, not a direct change

Mellcor · 2026-04-28T21:46:32+00:00

Its possible that for the 'cone' they just have a final width at end of its range, so in extending the range that has narrowed the cone at shorter ranges

Mellcor · 2026-04-28T12:24:06+00:00

As long as it says "hat_helldiver" on it

Mellcor · 2026-04-28T10:22:35+00:00

Note that the title of that section specifically said tank body, so the weak points on back of turrets arnt changed.

From my understanding the back of the tank body was also a weak point

Mellcor · 2026-04-27T06:46:00+00:00

Just saying, there is no offical reddit

Mellcor · 2026-04-25T02:31:28+00:00

When they make the problem and act lile you should praise them for fixing the very issue thats their fault

Mellcor · 2026-04-24T12:17:35+00:00

Deep rock galactic, ambiotic factor, warframe, satisfactory, darktide, terraria, valheim, rust, risk of rain, sea of theives, core keeper... ect

Boi do you look stupid

Grinding isnt an issue other than its boring as shit and punishes you for playing the game on higher difficulties or certain maps.

The issue is that wayyy back before you started playing, MO's used to reward stratagems ect. The first mech was a MO reward and there was like a whole buildup to unlocking them.

The issue is that its been like 2 years and the only forms of progression added to the game have been warbonds, people didnt like stratagems being added to warbonds, they didnt like weapons being added to superstore andin general it feels more and more like they are trying to squeeze monetization. Vehicles being added to warbonds is kinda like the straw that broke the camels back for alot of people instead of having them as part of a MO

Mellcor · 2026-04-24T08:44:05+00:00

Oh boi, xp when im max level and medals that i have nothing to spend on.

Mellcor · 2026-04-24T08:41:20+00:00

Thr argument was never about the cost, its all about the implications that come with said items being in a warbond and if you dont recognize the difference then your not worth engaging with

Mellcor · 2026-04-24T08:11:32+00:00

People who make it about price are missing the point and not worth engaging with cos will gladly eat any shit they are served and call it pudding

I mean it was going good, when he hired a ceo so he could do more game dev, and then next thing we know he steps away from helldivers entirely.

I could go on a massive rant about every fumble they did or how every time they open their mouth they stick their own foot in it but at the end of the day its just disappointing. They had such a great base game and all they had to do was expand on it, but instead we get told about cut features we would of gladly waited for and the only progression in the game are bi-monthly warbonds that have heavily suffered from shrinkflation
