This Could Be COMING SOON! Helldivers 2 Is Getting BIGGER...

Helldivers CEO says it is ready, but when will it arrive?
Here's the latest in Helldivers 2 News!
We were doing so well with the current Major Order, until the Terminids went around our lines and took back Fori Prime. We need to check-in on the status of the Major Order, and see how things are progressing. Helldivers CEO says that Unity Day/Review Bomb Cape is done, but they are waiting for the best time to release it. When will be, and what could be the possible reason for the delay? Since the last patch, Helldivers are still seeing issues with The Spear and Ballistic Shield, which Twinbeard has responded to. He also chimed in on many other topics with some possible future features that are in the works. And finally, we got a "fishy" post from Helldivers HQ that makes no sense at all!!!
Thanks so much for your awesome and continued support for my channel.

Enlist in the Helldivers and join the fight for freedom across a hostile galaxy in a fast, frantic, and ferocious third-person shooter.
URGENT BROADCAST - SUPER EARTH ARMED FORCES
Freedom. Peace. Democracy.
Your Super Earth-born rights. The key pillars of our civilization.
Of our very existence.
But the war rages on. And everything is once again under threat.
Join the greatest military force the galaxy has ever seen and make this a safe and free place to live.
HELLDIVERS™ 2 is a 3rd person squad-based shooter that sees the elite forces of the Helldivers battling to win an intergalactic struggle to rid the galaxy of the rising alien threats. From a 3rd person perspective, players use a variety of weapons (pistols, machine guns, flamethrowers) and stratagems (turrets, airstrikes, etc.) to shoot and kill the alien threats. Players can also aim down the sights for a more accurate 1st person camera view. Combat is accompanied by frequent sprays of blood and dismemberment as players exterminate the alien forces or players and squad mates are hit by environmental explosions or friendly fire. Enemy encampments and battlefield environments depict bloodstains and dismembered corpses.

The fish is more lore related. People in Super Earch are not allowed to have pets as easily as just going to a pet store. The Technician on the destroyer has talked about one day being allowed to have a small pet one day.

[@Kirbyoto2098]

@@Kirbyoto2098 yes, that’s the convo I was referring to.

[@CheemsIsGod_]

@@shapuku1674 I love talking to the ship technician, she's a nice source for learning about civilian life under Super Earth. You can learn about the holidays that Super Earth has and what kind of rules that Super Earth has. For example she mentions that when she was younger there were these stickers in the freedom catalogue that you put on the bottom of your boot so that whenever you took a step it looked like you were squashing bugs and talks about how there was a Halloween like holiday where people would dress up as bugs and go door to door. The owners of the house would fire 3 shots into the air and shout "NO FASICISM HERE INSECTS!" and by the time it was done they'd reenact the Battle Of Liberty Peak and get cake by the time everything was over. However we also learn about Super Earth's cost saving measures since she can talk about a "family separation bonus" that makes up for "bunk and chow fees" meaning they have to PAY FOR THEIR OWN BEDS AND FOOD IN THE MIDDLE OF A WAR

[@user-vv3gg5hy5z]

As much as I want the unity day cape, they shouldn’t release it until all of our brothers are sent back into the fight. It completely loses all it’s meaning if they release a cape celebrating our unity if we are still divided

[@danielcrump4404]

I think that unfortunately is a lost cause. The West wants the game more than they want Sony to say fuck what’s left of the daily fan base. It’s simply not up to Arrowhead and we’re lucky that Sony even considered backing down. They still went ahead with their decision on 40 other Sony games.

[@roninjed8667]

Why are people still trying to move the goal post on this? The review bombing happened when Sony decided to force the PSN requirement. A lot of people who gave negative reviews said they would change it if Sony removed the PSN requirement and most of those same people did reverse their negative review after the PSN requirement was removed. The review bombing and cap was never about the countries being banned.

[@gauthiernatalashadow8327]

Here's a fairly easy way to solve the spoiler problem of testing servers. Players on the test server or instance need to still contribute in the same war we do for that to work, maybe put them on a specific planet instead of a different server and have a modifier on the planet that unlocks test stuff. Then, give those people as part of the Lore and story a name. Put them in a commando squad or a legion or scout troopers, think Bad Batch in Star Wars or maybe the 501st. Hell, they can replace their rank with that too. Then, if something has to go through public testing, send a note that rumour has it the elite recon unit got some new toys to play with and it should be handed to the rest of the Helldivers soon. If the devs are confident in their work, some stuff may not go PTE and stay secret and be released for everyone all at once.

[@FinnishArsonist]

wait that would be fucking sick though. imaging just playing and one of your squadmates just brings a completely new stratagem EDIT: although unfortunately it would probably be a lot more complicated than it seems to integrate - testing servers are updated much more frequently than the base servers (due to their very nature as test servers), so to integrate them into the base servers would require a lot of microupdates to the base server (and game), which would also mean a lot of downtime + people would have to constantly update their game before they play, which would piss a lot of people off, not to mention the countless other things I am most definitely not considering here

[@Samuel034]

It also opens it up to people scrounging in the data mines, spoilers would be near instant.

[@tvrkm6897]

The problem comes in how to test new mission types. Spoilers would abound if we were test playing Meridia before anyone heard we were collapsing it into a black hole. Could they cover up assets with others that are functionally similar? Like you think you are defending a mining stratagem, but as far as the game is concerned, you are prepping a hive lord killer? The game is running the assets of the mission being tested but only running the visuals and labels of an established mission? Could anyone explain why that wouldn't work? I've only learned enough programming to know that there's some black magic in between the parts I know.

[@FinnishArsonist]

@@tvrkm6897 theoretically that would work (unless if the new mission type is something really wild like hivelords/illuminate, but they could always hide those), and I think that would be cool, but a problem I see is how the people would recieve it. A lot of people see leaked content/something the devs say they might add as something that 100% will happen and is true (this happened pretty bad woth No Man's Sky - a lot of stuff the devs said "that would be cool/we are looking into it" and people took it as promises to add those). So a lot of people would see this stuff never get added and be like "hey the devs are lying to our faces". Which given what many people think of arrowhead right now (although I heavily disagree, I think that they gread devs that have been really overwhelmed by the success of HD2 and are a bit swamped), might make PR issues worse. So essentially I *speculate* that would be less of a programming issue and more of a PR issue.

[@jangomp3]

I like this idea!

The game crashed so much on me last night I had to quit. 2 games later my buddy messaged me that it crashed so much for him and his wife he quit too. We can't play the game and can't get a refund.

[@depalmlicker2143]

​@@JayPlaysEverythingTrying to refund a game because a patch made it crash more often is wild. Maybe go play something else until the next patch, or go outside. It's not an issue of now or never. 😂😂

[@danielnovotny9094]

Oh, well, you know, the usual. I have Korean BBQ with gloriously democratical, liberating napalm... in between an infinite loading screen and the occasional crash here and there..

[@shadomega9808]

ngl a bestiary sound nice, especially when you get those daily objective that require you to kill "X" enemies. Maybe it could be introduced as something like those pods side objectives that you have to extract data from, those could contain a data entry on a specific enemy, & perhaps to make it a bit of a grind each enemies could have 3 data entry : the first one could describe the enemy with a bit of lore, the next one could describe it's weakness & the third one would give more lore.

[@GGBlaster]

For me personally (I won’t speak for everyone), I want better pre-mission recon before a bestiary. Enemy diversity is low enough atm that I can more or less memorize the best ways to take out enemies I may encounter. What’s hard, at least at the difficulty I play at, is that it’s usually a guessing game what enemies I’m going to encounter. Sometimes I get bile titans, sometimes I don’t. Sometimes there’s like 3 chargers total, sometimes there’s dozens. I hate dropping on a mission and discovering spewers, only to realize that my loadout is spec’d for pretty much everything except spewers. So I’d like to see pre-mission recon that shows relative density of enemies we’ll encounter. Honestly, just the enemy type and a “low, medium, high” would be enough for me.

[@ArthurWangArt]

Reminds me of the StarCraft upgrades where you should see a room full of the units you upgraded

[@steeljawX]

I mean, sure. But every time I hear the word "bestiary" I usually think strictly wildlife. I'm just struggling to apply the same term to the Automatons. Like quite honestly, because they're machines, my mind keeps going, "Bestiary for Terminids, Sears catalog/Best Buy ad page/Fry's Electronics shopping page for Automatons." I just don't consider machines to fit in a "bestiary" but that's probably my own stubbornness.

[@steeljawX]

@@GGBlaster It'd be nice, but at the same time I know what Pilestedt will say. "That's not like actual combat. In actual combat, you go in with very general knowledge and you have to find out the hard way of what exactly you're dealing with. That's how it was when I was in the Swedish Army." or something akin to that. He's right, but in the studio's own words, "This isn't a milsim." Sooooooooo, I'm not sure. There isn't "enough" of a variation in my opinion to warrant that detailed of info before the mission. You either have bile spewers, nursing spewers, or hunters up the wazoo in Terminid-land or you have more commissars, jet pack commissars, or raiders in Automaton-world. If it was a bit more skewed like, "Heavy brood commander presence and bile titan's are scarce. Expect massive spawn counts of smaller enemies." I'd be all on board. It's just currently there's not enough variance in the enemies for me to need that kind of info. But then again I'm usually playing solo and I bring something for everyone. The main times I get caught in the open is with flyers. Everything was fine and dandy until everything took to the skies.

[@GGBlaster]

@@steeljawX yeah, I guess I’m just kinda complaining because I never seem to have the right equipment for fighting spewers, at the exact times that I’m fighting spewers. Though I’d argue with Pilestedt that recon is a very essential part of military combat. US military has aircraft exclusively for performing reconnaissance. For Helldivers 2, I’d be willing to fork over some of the in-game currency every mission to get some reconnaissance. Maybe doesn’t have to be the whole “here are the volumes of each enemy,” but instead singular tips you buy apiece. Stuff like: “Bile spewers have been reported in this area.” “Chargers have been reported in larger numbers than usual here.” “Surface scans indicate possible stalker/shrieker activity.” Heck, maybe if you fork over enough currency, they can even reveal some of the hidden side objectives.

[@LJB...]

Quick note on the cape. It doesn't look like it is just going to be the cape. It looks like a full new armor/cape set.

[@SkyeVolt]

Having a dedicated R&D planet close to super earth as the “PTS” would be pretty neat

[@Odog78]

Best source of actual news for helldiver 2. Good delivery and informative love the videos brother! Don't stop

[@nuggsy7085]

As far as I'm aware, the whole Sony thing isn't over unless they overturned the removal of HD2 from all those countries. It's not over and asking for the cape to be released before it is actually fully fixed and not just for the people who it doesn't effect and thus can pretend it's over is pretty disingenuous to all those "solidarity" videos the community was making when it happened. As for the "Fish" thing I think it's most likely we'll get a fish tank somewhere on our ships. We're not going to have fish... mounts/backpacks/etc. If anything it's probably fish deco. xD

[@justaregularguy9874]

Agreed.

[@user-jt1js5mr3f]

Yeah, I'm hoping Arrowhead is continuing to push for access and holding off on the cape until it's done

[@xxjakethesnakexx7602]

Fish jet pack stratagem, uses? Are you surrounded by squidheads known as the Illuminate? Fear no more! For the fish tank jet pack is here to save the day! We all know squid love fish, and can’t jump! So, distract them with tasty fish as you fly away to freedom!

[@midnightsnack1306]

Your right. I will not overturn my negative review until I see the game on sale against all over the world

[@Odog78]

They need a PTS. Period. Just have people sign a nondisclosure and dole out super credits. The QA of this game is terrible and needs to be addressed respectfully and transparently. Being surprised by new things is cool, but I think it's time to throw in the towel and admit that it is beyond their capability as a studio and they need to favor quality over the hype of surprising us with new cool things.

[@DeadSpaceWing]

@BigJo95 @proggz39 Mmm, easy fresh new dislikes....like shooting fish in a barrel 🙂

[@maliticus7474]

They certainly need some type of Quality Assurance, because what ever they are doing right now is clearly not working. From my perspective, it should be beyond simple to play a match with 4 devs at 3, 6, and 9 difficulty to see how their intended changes affect the game. Each of the 4 people could bring items that are being changed for testing. This would literally take 3 hours of time max. I can't fathom how all of these bugs get past them and go live if they do ANY testing at all.

[@Fourthaboveall]

We don't necessarily need the test server, but they definitely need a team to actually test some of this stuff, because it's clear nothing is tested after they create it.

[@danielnovotny9094]

That, my fellow Helldiver, is EXACTLY WHY we need it. Arrowhead is aware of bugs and crashes that exist for months without actual fixes for them (the fact it takes months is the problem I have with it btw). At least we can make sure they would add new stuff that actually works - hopefully without breaking more stuff in the process. If it is tested by us, found broken and still added broken.. well.. I don't even want to think about that.

[@denhawken]

[@GPutlovis]

You know, an announcement that we have to fight on a defense campaign during this would be nice. It’s gonna feel cheap if we lose this one. Especially when my game crashes me out of 3/5 matches I start. These circumstances are seriously making me consider setting Helldivers II down for a bit.

[@graveyardshift6691]

There is literally a shipboard announcement the second a counterattack is launched and which planet is being targeted. The poor PA system however is drunk since it tends to mix up the fronts announcing automatons attacking terminid space and terminids hitting automaton targets. We should MOSTLY be fine since we're at 48 hours and there's 20 to go on Nivel 43. The question of how much will snowball back into Fori Prime or get distracted since 10k have reported to Gacrux splitting our forces AGAIN. After we reach the 23 hour mark, I don't expect any future defensive campaigns at least on any MO slated worlds but the Terminids will have some established territory they will launch attacks from to non-MO worlds to try and distract us the way they are on Gacrux. Defensive campaigns won't launch with less then 24 hours left on MO worlds. We would fail instantly if Joel were THAT mean because it wouldn't count as 'under control' if it's 'contested'. Won't stop him from launching distraction attacks on non-MO worlds to try and draw Helldivers away from MO to slow down Liberation/Defense rate so we fail by our own greed and stupidity.

[@lutherheggs451]

Its hilarious that people that clearly never played the first game still think you can win everything LMFAO....If the devs want a campaign to fail, its going to fail PERIOD. Its literally part of their "story". If they want something to fail its going to fail PERIOD whether 1 person goes there or millions of players go there.

Advice for mines and i mean either setup using them as an impromptu bullet to take out nests and also spread explosives amongst bugs (can also work on bots too,) works great for extra cleanup and also the mine layer device acts as aggro to pull enemies to them at first which means extra dense enemy zone plus explosives being packed in small space equals big boom.

As a fellow Helldivers content creator I just wanted to say this was an extremely well put together video. I aspire to be this clean with my videos.

[@heathen5712]

I would much rather have a wall with my sword 🗡️ collection! But who am I…😂🤦‍♂️

[@LtBuzzLitebeer]

🤣

[@TheDoomlord7]

A PTS is needed, people like being surprised but a surprise that causes you to lag, crash, break something else, and just be generally bad is not a good surprise. Only people being spoiled is the testers and those going out of their way to be spoiled in the first place. So if you don’t want to be spoiled, I would assume don’t sign up.

[@ashtonkilburn3276]

Something that’s happened very recently is with the medium mg, the reload speed is back to normal and my heart is broken 😭

[@noahmcarthur5955]

They need to fix the weapon holster bug my gun is so much farther up on my character it was fine before idk why it changed but now when i try to do the hug emote for example the weapon clips through my arms and body

[@zc4905]

How about they fix the KNOWN ISSUES, before implementing new ones. The list just keeps growing, not shrinking… there’s still bugs from LAUNCH.

[@danteslick2843]

Liked and subscribed. On a side note, has anyone else had problems when you throw the Incendiary impact grenade? Sometimes when i throw it even long distance, my character just bursts on fire without any obvious reason :D

[@Mrtojo]

fish will be on the ship?

[@Child_of_woe_1994]

maybe the computer terminals opposite the loadout area is gonna be converted into an aquarium or something

[@Kitkat5335]

I hadn't noticed the escape frame rate bug and now wondering if it somehow contributes to some of the hang-ups I've randomly noticed on very rare occasions. Had one where after landing the game felt like it was about to crash then went back to normal as I was coming out of the drop pod. As far as crash bugs go, I've seen more than my share of them. Some I think are due to the spear being on loadout as well - randomly crashed on loadout screen as everyone registers ready, or immediately after drop pod loading screen before even seeing the planet. Sadly the options menu crash is still there too. Was chatting with a friend waiting for others to get one, but when one couldn't I went to open the match to others. As soon as I hit tab to confirm changes, boom out of the game to desktop. I want to say I did look at war bonds before doing this, but I can't recall, just know it is still there. One of the worst issues I'm seeing often however, is getting stuck on the drop pod loading screen. As soon as I stop hearing the sound of the drop pod I know it isn't going to load planet side and the only way out is to force quit the game.

[@isuaromolina5062]

Ok, it could just be me or something but anyone else's game breaks whenever you drop an electric field? Anytime i do my screen just goes haywire and it's like a never ending glitch of purple bars just shooting around the sky like lightning

[@ThePhant0m100]

Have you guys seen helldiver ships blowing up in the atmosphere of a planet? Saw that yesterday and it freaked me out.

[@LtBuzzLitebeer]

I have seen it before! 👍

[@jeffbarritt2224]

I 'm up for weapons testing. Weapons are getting leaked anyways might as well have us test them to help them out.

[@nisbitbumbles6584]

I thought that having mars as a practice range were we can try the new changes there in a controlled inviroment. But also if they dont have to hard focas on normal bugs and things then they can focas more on new stuff so its not broken right away

[@Whiskey5_]

Have a good vacation sir

[@AgentExeider]

Sounds to me like they are doing a test on cosmetics for the ship. I asked about liveries and perhaps a personal quarters to deck out, nothing fancy just a single room would do. And I was told "its lower on the priority list right now." At first I took that as just a polite dismissal. But maybe they really meant it, that it was on the list just low priority.

[@aldoparziale5669]

Maybe the "fish" thing is a reference to the Illuminate being squid like idk

[@LtBuzzLitebeer]

🤷‍♂️

[@Eeyeore360]

The test server could be built like the training tutorial mission, big prefab construction areas, and open spaces, one for bots and one for bugs. No need to Integrate story. Mission type testing could have its mechanics and infrastructure renamed and reskinned to look more eathly. Like instead of the Seaf artillery mission you could have your helldivers running around putting good ol Acme cartoon looking bombs in catapults or something so it all looks and feels a lot less serious.

[@Jewsus_Crisco]

Hellmire always holds. Thanks for the help.

[@albertlarson9141]

I've noticed the spear is causing frequent game crashing at least for me, I've run missions without it and got extraction without much issue as far as game performance, but if I bring the spear with, my game will crash, hopefully Arrowhead can fix the issue soon for I feel it's sabotaging the bot orders where you see the spear used more often than not.

[@matthewallen2942]

Absolutely bro. Happens a lot. I thought it was just my internet

[@ChristopherLowery]

I see your point with the public test server, but I think it can be done in a way that would help a lot without giving away what's coming. Basically, it would only really have current content that they're trying to balance or fix bugs with, not new content. The downside is that new content would not get the benefit of extra testing, but it would be great for helping to sus out if a fix to something existing is working right or causing other issues. Just my two cents.

[@wrensiak]

What they could do for the mars is have it be like a simulation planet, and lorewise its how they usually are prepared for most things, certain things that are really story spoiling might not be added

[@jscotch2879]

I think a PTS would be good for patch testing and we can leave new releases to just be released normally and then deal with the bugs after.

[@Jonderlei]

Man I was having a hard time with this game lately but realizing there are now gun ship patrols in matches and taking out fabricators doesnt get rid of them has me considering dropping this one for awhile.

[@ChrisWilliams-lf8ex]

The gunship/shrieker patrols are an operation parameter, like increased cooldown or call in time, it'll let you know before you take an operation whether you'll see them or not. The gunship patrols also don't behave exactly like the gunships spawned from fabricators do, you can actually sneak by them like any other patrol.

[@Brakka86]

They need to fix all the crashes and disconnects. 4 out of 10 games it either refuses to load, crashes or disconnects.

[@michaelshorts-if7es]

Have a great vacation, LT!

[@PowerPointGaming]

the third front will be fish

[@weroleoify]

They really need to implement those forms and in a week time or so you actually get a result back if approved or not based on your Helldiving efficiency. Like another reward system without currency.

[@chrishall4058]

One ship upgrade I'd reallly like to see is a firing range to test our weapons. With customisable targets to simulate differnet enemy types. Or if arrowhead really want to give us a treat we could use captured bugs and bots to use as target practice. It'd be a cool to test new weapons before a mission and also allow us to easily test weapons after balancing changes have been implemented with patches.

[@hlommersottana9236]

Finally someone who shows the superstore rotation

[@purplenurp5590]

Ah the review bomb cape, the only cape able to replace my melevalon vet cape

[@johannarias2009]

I have a feeling they are gonna release the cape when the illuminates finally come so that when all the helldivers unite to fight the new threat they will be reminded of what a community united for a cause can do.

[@AngryCanine]

Pretty sure that fish thing was already something said in the game, as a scrolling text during one or more of the news videos that show on the screen in the destroyer, and pretty sure I have a screenshot of that text among the many hundreds of screenshots I have.

[@northlandphoenix]

I think a PTS would make a ton of sense for balance related issues. There could be multiple versions of the same weapon with different stats and let people play around with these different iterations and provide their feedback or they could have enemies with different stats floating around. I can’t imagine that they would have much luck having pre-release code in circulation while also removing lore-related items and future warbond items, etc. It seems like they already have enough problems keeping their code straight, with all the bugs they release each patch and warbonds released with incorrect weapon stats and textures, etc. Adding another layer of complexity seems like a disaster unless they really get their stuff together.

[@BirdTheLegend]

Pet fish most likely an aquarium in the destroyer. You'll probably have to feed them

[@user-jt1js5mr3f]

A good use of samples xD

[@CJ-Wolf]

I would love a public test environment for warbonds about to come out and potential fixes/changes for known features. Leave sudden unknown options out so the mystery of getting them is still there.

[@depalmlicker2143]

I am actually extremely disappointed and honestly a little angry to learn that Arrowhead has completed the review bomb cape but are waiting for "the right time" to release it. The right time was weeks ago!

[@CollectorsDomain]

I would LOVE it if we could sink unused resources into upgrading an onboard aquarium with exotic, otherworldly fish.

[@sethkappaccilli9509]

FISH ARE FINAKLKLY BEING BROUGH BACKL TO SUPER EARTH FYNN MY BOY WEKLCOME BACK

[@Orionmacdon]

Had a hard crash this morning, requiring a power button restart. Never seen that on my current computer. PTS can still be lore accurate, as a training simulator, hence the noticable differences from "real life".

[@ThePsycoMo]

What if instead of doing a test server or public test server arrowhead drops training missions on super in which to test performance can make it be daily mission that players could join to earn a few more war medals

[@Muddr1nker]

feels like every damn patch they dont really test them and just ship it out with plans for us to point out bugs for them to oneday get round to maybe fixing

[@kirbyplush240]

Don't tell me they're trying to say that superior packing methodology ISN'T supposed to completely refill your support weapons? When it was working that's what it did. The response from twinbeard is so vague it seems like it's just gonna get nerfed into doing nothing on purpose

[@skuttlebutt3902]

They'll say "It was a bug and never supposed to work that way so now it's fixed" with no context or real answer.

[@Bud_Weedmin]

The test server should be something like what warthunder does

[@therealjome]

The fish thing is actually funny if you listened to one of the crew members on the ship. The mechanic was working more so that she can raise her citizenship rank or something so that in the future- her children can get a small pet- like a fish. She also said maybe even a hamster. I love the sneak peak clues hidden in the dialogue of the npcs, it's so much for being so little, like taking the time to listen to the dialogue of your ship's members.

[@hamzah800]

there's something ominous about the pet fish, maybe because the last faction illuminate is an aquatic species or maybe i'm just paranoid

[@leifreon6117]

I would be happy, for a fishtank in the destroyer. Even if it's like Mass Effect where we have to find the fish on a planet before we get it in the tank.

[@SpeedyGamerTV]

If there is a PTS, lore wise, it should be some sort advanced training environment on Mars where they're testing new weapon improvements. Or some simulator.

[@Wip3ou7]

I really hope they fix all these bugs before trying to do a massive complex expansion like adding the illuminate. I can't imagine how many new bugs we're gonna have lol.

[@maestroboy]

How much cooler would it be if the Guard Dog didnt use an assault rifle as a weapon but a stalwart instead? Maybe even have a ammobelt hanging off of it for a visual for how much ammo it has left before a reload?

[@dapperpotato4243]

there is a voiceline by one of the ship npc's that says something along the lines of: "I want to build up a nice nest-egg before retiring, maybe be able to afford a pet for my kids. a fish maybe." perhaps that is where the pet fish tweet came from

[@ProjektReaper]

Due to resource caps, a severe reduction in super credit acquisition, and no interest in the lackluster viper commandos - there seems to be no reason to play actively. Kinda interested to see what happens in the galactic war with a continuous drop in divers working towards major orders

[@miemsliva4464]

The escape key thing really surprised me. I don't have an in-depth thing running in the back ground, just and fps and refresh rate counter I think. But the menus are normally where I have the best frames, with my Super Destroyer being pretty bad putting me generally sub 30 frames, being on allied destroyers has me around 20 until we get in a mission, and the war table on my own ship has brought me as low as 15 fps (or lower). That war table as well always looks so bad, blurry and straining on my eyes with any joinable missions symbols looking like total messes, nothing like the clear images imprinted on them when i go to start a mission of my own. Terminals often have the same blurry textures for the imputs or whatever else is on their screens, same with weapon scopes though they tend to fix themselves after some time (could be 2 minutes, could be never) Last night was the first time I ever played a mission in anything above a maximum of 40 fps, a terminid eradicate with 50 and even 60 frames. I felt like a god, walking around every single thing, dancing under titans and shooting the bellies out even as dozens of small terminids came at me, I hadn't had so much fun in all 137 hours i've played so far. I really, really wish I knew what it was that I could do to fix this, i've moved the settings around in graphics and display so many times and it isn't even consistent what works better. Sometimes it runs better on Balanced or Performance than on Quality. Sometimes it runs better on the lowest possible graphical presets, sometimes Medium or even High lets it really look like the game I see other people play. In between days any mixture of these settings seem to randomly change effectiveness, running fine the night before and then starting up to 20 frames on my super destroyer after 177 in the starting cutscenes and I just have to alter them, turn the game off and on again, and pray. Please. I am asking anyone here, anyone smarter than me, what the fuck am I supposed to do. Running low settings only makes the game run like shit, high settings makes it run like shit, and I often have to tweak one or two things individually to get it to work for one mission, then do it again for the next, then change it back to the low or medium preset to make anything work at all... I love this game so much i'm willing to put up with all this bs, I have mercifully few crashes and have only had the inf-loading glitch once, but if this is the price I dont know how much longer until it actually makes my eyes deteriorate more than they already have straining to play.

[@ketrotenderfoot9007]

A ptr would work against as much as for, lost players running the main missions, but bugs may get fixed faster

[@isaacjuarez7232]

We should have a special operations group mode… we can apply with a mission…we will then be sent on a special mission…mission types can be EXTREMELY difficult raids,rescue and recon missions (no reinforcements or stratagems. You drop in with your support weapons). Only the ones that can complete their mission are allowed on the test server to try out the most TOP SECRET/SENSITIVE technology and weapons super earth can offer and may put their input including the name of any weapons that are assigned to the squad (this will ensure that the player base will always be satisfied and included) maybe a certain amount of squads get to put their input on the backpack that holds rockets and a certain amount on the rocket LAUNCHER (or whatever it may be). The developers can then take that and make some adjustments to make sure it runs smoothly before release. Those squads will then take a platoon photo with their favorite emote and be put on a wall.that platoon/squads may never re-apply. Your name will forever hold weight in the helldivers community Like this comment so it reaches people and feel free to let me know if it sounds stupid 😂

[@dotmadhack]

The fish pet license is just world flavor, like when they put a temporary pause on child bearing. The meta lore is Super Earth is over crowded hence the 10 minute helldiver training and the need to expand to other planets asap.
