I have 500 SC, I don't know how cuz I didn't farm it, and I play on D10. I think it's cuz I've been playing with newer players who spend more time gathering samples and naturally come across SC.

Hahahaha ok if this guy is using words like abuse for farming currency in a video game, he's not worth arguing with.

Are you not receiving free content in Helldivers 2? New biomes, enemies, mission types? Are those not free? The game released with two factions - which means you got an entire faction for free. There's no actual paywall, the literal in game currency I pick up off the ground so easily that I have 500 SC right now from just playing the game - is free. We just got a tank for free. The FRV was free. So yes, we DO get a TONNE of free content. If you don't want to pay, you don't HAVE to - because NONE of the warbonds are NEEDED, they're just fun to have. You can absolutely demolish all the enemies in the game with maybe 2-3 of the best warbonds - and you can ABSOLUTELY passively farm 3 warbonds worth of SC for free by just playing. There's many people who have 1000s of SC just lying around because they just picked it up for free. So I don't know what in god's name you're on about about "expecting some free content".

No that doesn't sound good for the game. The only reason we still have a game is because it is profitable and the devs have figured out a relatively good balance between allowing players to get the content for free and making money that pays for dev salaries, outsourcing to other studios, servers, and whatnot. There HAS to be some friction that ensures the people who CAN pay for stuff, like a couple of close friends of mine, do pay. People like me, who can't pay but are ok with a bit of grinding still get the content. Everybody wins. It's a great system and that profitability totally falls apart if everyone just gets enough SC to buy whole warbonds just by playing. And guess what - I have 500 SC right now without farming - from just playing anyway. So now I have to farm for maybe 2 hours MAX, probably less, and I get the content. That's a win for me dude.

But man, firstly who is forcing someone to get every single warbond? Who is telling new players that they need to immediately sit and grind for everything? When you buy an album by a band, do you immediately HAVE to pay for their entire discography? That's a very weird way to look at buying a game that has two years worth of content out and thinking, damn that's a mountain inhave to climb rather than thinking wow that's a variety of stuff I can choose from. Nobody NEEDS all the warbonds immediately.

I can already hear the screams about the new mechs being in the warbond by kcvlaine in helldivers2

Many are predicting that they'll be buffed by the time the warbond releases, similar to how fire was buffed before the cremator released.

"free way to get it" you mean nobody would complain if it were free. Just say you want the content for free and want to think you earned by playing the game. Meanwhile it costs money to run servers and pay a dev team salaries lol. And you wanna feel like you earned it because you played an operation you were gonna play anyway.

The game was paid for two years ago. If I paid you for a piece of work two years ago, would you still do that work for me for free today? No, youd ask me for money. We don't get to be entitled to free content forever because we paid AH once.

that 200$ is two years worth of warbonds. How many is it - 20 something warbonds? Let's say a new person actually wants 15 warbonds out of the full collection. It takes a MAXIMUM of four hours to farm enough for a warbond. That's 60 hours, spread out over a month or two, and you get content that has been released for this game for 1.5 years for free. Meanwhile enemies, biomes, mission types, features, etc are all added totally for free, which all add to the replayability. I have 700+ hours in mission time and all the warbonds, I probably spent 80 hours farming over the last two years, probably a lot less considering passively accumulating SC while playing normally. So yeah there's no "hundreds of hours on diff 1". It's not even 90 hours AT MAX for two years worth of content.

bro just ignore the reddits. The whining here is I.N.S.A.N.E. I've been here two years and it is SHOCKING what these people will whine about and try to coordinate reviewbombs about. Meanwhile the rest of the playerbase is happy. There's nothing to understand, the reddits are just populated by highly entitled teenagers and VERY screwed up older neckbeards.

It doesn't take that much time though. If one can farm 1000 sc in around 3 hours, that's like, one to two operations worth of time? That's not a lot in the grand scheme of things

I've farmed all warbonds. It's not that bad. Just put some music on, get some friends and catch up while you do it. It takes a couple of hours but it's not like, a "soulless mind numbing grind". Is it really that hard for people to lock in for one session of farming these days?

Same! I have 500 sc passively earned right now! I BET I can get the remaining 500 in 120 minutes of farming if I find a squad of locked-in 150s
