They chose chaos, anger and more chaos…
Helldivers 2 continues to sink lower and lower on Steam as players openly feel that the studio has declared war on its own fans. This is getting ugly.

i quit this game a long time ago because of how dogshit arrowhead is. not all developers are worthy of the games they have control of.
My recent experience when i got back into the game is summed up like: "The community is welcoming, but the game and devs tell me i am not welcome here."
I did use two mods that could effect others people games, however it only made the most useless vehicle actually useful. I only used what could be claimed by few as cheat mods for the tank. One was 360 turning and the other was allowing the gunner to drive. As if anyone knows about the tank. It's hard to get a driver as everyone just wants to be the gun.
its funny when these problems are being discussed. xbox and ps5 are not caring. only the storyline mission. i think mods are a big part of video pulls and kickbacks. and people are angry about the bottom dollar. i honestly dont think it was ever possible for mods to run on their servers. "pc the bread and butter"?, but its sonys house. theres only one way its gonna go what is better for ps5 systems period
The "cheaters" is this case are not players that using mods that simply "weapons that fire modified ammunition" , but super credit exploit. All before EAC, you can easily find someone that use this cheat in certain corner of internet, selling service for SC exploit that cost pennies and yet giving you thousands of SC just in 10 minutes. I bought this service, 10k SC for $8. Im not ashamed of it, instead Im glad I did it since AH have no integrity for the game, so why should I.
Modders need separated servers, I dont really want to play with players with "quality of life changes". Just let players initiate local lan matches
Conspiracy theory mode: the bugs, the bots, the squids were never the true enemies of super earth but Arrowhead were the true enemies of super earth
(Does this sound like treason perhaps but based on Arrowhead's behaviour it looks that way)
Activity sabatoging OUR efforts
everything WE have bled for
Everything WE have died for
what WE have fought to OUR last breath for
everything WE have risked for super earth
Every last Helldiver and SEAF has done to defend super earth and it's democracy
and what has arrowhead done?
Answer me fellow Helldivers what has Arrowhead done to support US? (besides giving US warbonds and the occasional strategem that we wait forever for)
has Arrowhead joined us on OUR campaigns?
has Arrowhead supported US when WE needed them most?
AH the fourth faction
I bet the “new missions” was probably just repurposed into the void missions and are now delayed because they know it would only ad fuel to the flames
If EAC can help stop someone trying to hack my computer midgame, then the harmless mods can suffer IMO
I'd been playing less and less recently. I wasn't really caught up on the bullshit AH has been throwing around, but… now I've basically just stopped playing altogether. I love HD2, but at this point I just wouldn't care if it dies. AH deserves to lose their golden goose. Who knows… maybe its value will crash and another company gets to buy HD2. Even Ubisoft for instance seems like a better option than AH…
Next major order, bring down Arrowhead ✊
Arrowhead have successfully made 343 industries look like good developers
Just my 2 cents: I am not buying their next game.. They cant be trusted to support the original vision that they sold, cant be trusted to FIX things in a reasonable time frame, don't actually LISTEN to their players and actively fight against the wishes.
The Toxic relationship is over.
I am done with AH, and thus sadly with HD2. May they shrivel ang go bankrupt. By the way, never used a single mod.
Fuck ARROWHEAD and their stupid ass game. It sucked a month after release and has only continued to bite ass
It’s gonna die then the Steven seagal meme will play
Is it safe to say that they might have another kind of English in Sweden? Arrowhead is so out of touch with reality that I'm starting to suspect they communicate on a different frequency.
It's as if they were colorblind and wrote to us in a color they can't see; they observe another version of our reality.
AH actively destroying the game so they can sell the next one. Probably wanna go on better holidays.
I'm convinced Arrowhead is purposefully trying to drive away their player base to get it back down to a more manageable level for them because they clearly were not ready for it.
what more can one do besides scratching one’s head.
Fight back, join Hellforge, free yourself from being a statistic in their favour
That's not very democratic of them
The purpose of a system is what it does. If arrowhead repeatedly does things that don't accomplish their stated objectives, and do not course correct, then their stated objectives are not their actual objectives. Given that this is a company that has repeatedly hidden patch changes and gaslit players, i wouldn't trust them enough to take them at their word if they told me the sky is blue.
the anti ball bouncing and "steering fixes" were things the devs added post launch so how tf do u delay removing them?
I deleted the game after 400hrs the mods made the game fun again and then arrowhead happened, opinion arrowhead where the ones posting the rampant cheater problem posts to justify adding EAC.
What's funny about it is also that out of 4 guys I used to play the game with, 2 can go longer start the game despite not using mods, 1 has performance issues now, and 1 hasn't even bothered booting up the game now the rest can't play.
I myself have lost around 80% of frames, and the game fucked with my cpu bad enough that i think the thermal paste took a hit. I wonder if this would be a non-conformity according to EU costumer law.
AH has been boiling the playerbase like frogs over the years.
Iam oftentimes very critical of game communities, and the way they conduct themselves.
In this case, the community is 100% in the right being upset
PC is the majority, most of them use mods (QoL are considered minimum in other games…).
Now they’re threatening all mods because they can’t figure out how to ban the SC hackers… smh…
Y'know, as someone who ridicules TE and CD larping anywhere outside of the game space…
I'd never seen the cause of Chaosdivers being so valid.
AH are treating the issue the same way Bioware did with the Mass Effect 3 backlash, they are treating what is essentially a customer service issue as a PR one and employing the PR techniques of Defect, Discredit and Deny to the problems presented rather than addressing the route concern, it's the gaming industries typical response to any problem, try and protect the image and rally allies in the gaming media for support, difference now is after 14 years of this, no one cares what the professional gaming media has to say and gamers couldn't care less what you label them.
Honestly I think this all stems from a mental discomect in the industry, the gaming industry refers to people as gamers, the fanbase, community but not the customer and that failure to recorgnise that these people are the customers paying for your buisness (at least subconsciously) leads to these absolutelty unhinged disasters when trying to related to compaints or issues with the product which at the end of the day games are a product
i mean i only downloaded mods after the easy anti cheat was enabled and im not banned (although it is just cosmetics and sounds)
