Haven't played it in almost 2 months. Going to go out on a limb here and say my group of friends has moved on.
This one petered out super fast.
The financial success is what gives me hope that we'll see copycats and hopefully a dev team that actually knows wtf they're doing.They had a money printing machines on their hands and all they had to do was proceed carefully and not fuck it up but god damn they have. Nevertheless, still a commercial success I guess.
Releasing new weapons on a paid pass and then nerfing them weeks later isn't going to encourage people to buy future passes.
I get that by the nature of the type of game Helldivers is, you mostly have to have things feel like "sidegrades", in a sense.Releasing new weapons on a paid pass and then nerfing them weeks later isn't going to encourage people to buy future passes.
Bought this game after the PSN shit was settled. I have 143 hours in and I hit level 60 tonight. Because I was playing catch up, I bought the Super Citizen shit and spent another twenty on creds to get the other war bonds. I have 1400 super creds which I will use to buy the next warbond and since they are slowing down warbond production I should earn enough super creds in game for the next one and each one there after. I enjoy the game even with all its flaws. Terrain is an issue and yes, primary weapons suck.
The Iluminate should be introduced soon, I am getting bored with bots and I have never liked bugs.
I have a good buddy that I play a mission or two with almost nightly, $80 for 143 hours on entertainment, is worth IMHO.
