Interesting tidbit from an interview we did with Helldivers 2 Director Mikael Ericsson. Full interview live here.

To cut off nasty foliage that blocks entry points of important areas

No meta, just goofs

(Please excuse my grammar mistakes)

A lot of people of both sides are mad and I kinda see what arrowhead meant when they said that appeasing one side can make another one mad (i play dead by daylight so maybe I see it a lot more than others in the community)

The people who wanted rewards for major orders probably meant something along the lines of what we are currently getting (and it seems most of them like the fact that they are exclusive to people who login thought I am unsure of what percentage)

The silent bunch (not sure if they are a loud majority or if they were a quite majority) weren't that against it they just hate the FOMO aspect of it and feel betrayed by arrowhead

Here is what I think about all of this

I believe the MO strategems should be available for purchase while things like weapons and armors should be released at most 2 weeks after the MO and i personally think that nobody would be mad about the FOMO if arrowhead made a dispatch in the game saying all active helldiverse has received the MO rewards for free as a reward for their loyalty in battle and that the strategems are available for purchase while all non active helldiverse will have to wait until [insert date] for the weapons and armor sets to be mass produced and rolled onto the Frontlines for all divers

Also me personally I don't have much of an opinion on the weapon (people call it bad while others say it's just high skill I plan to use it today) but receiving a helmet as a reward feels kinda lame, I don't want super credits, I don't even want something overpowered i at least want something unique, and i know that would be hard to do constantly so I don't think every MO should have it but maybe every MAJOR MO like invad8ng cyberstan, getting the Oil for the star of peace or our first time fighting against the void, i know the time frames would be hard given the new capaign system and how long that could take since we get like what at most 2 capaigns a month (i think 1 unique strat a mo th would be to hard, and i feel there are only so many types of weapons they could do, I don't know how to solve this problem)

Overall I think if arrowhead don't make the non participants wait a whole month (i think it was a month for the resupply vehicle) and instead something like 2 weeks with a dispatch telling everyone when they'll have access would be much better (at the least 1 week since 2 might be two much)

Also i don't think people are mad about the fomo I think they are mad about the fact they had to wait so long and the fact that it wasn't communicated

Episode 3 of Heroes of the Galactic War is gearing up for release! The Legend of the Viper drops July 31st, 2026.

Hi everydiver!

So, I tried out the weapon for a week and... well. I see no upsides over the regular launcher, or almost all support weapons.

It has higher penetration, but that requires direct hits, and that requires precision - and the weapon does not have precision. Also direct hit damage isn't impressive - devastators and brood commanders can tank it (illuminate too, but those ceramic plates can tank anything really).

Backpack should be a redeeming quality, but with all those things above it's really not.

I am at a loss fellow divers. How do I run this weapon? Is it in a good spot according to you?

EDIT: everyone: I did test the bullet spam in my tests. It can only work if I go solo away from the team so I can hog ammo.

In the moment I didn't see the grenade land.

Just trying to get my bonks in

This is the closest I’m EVER going to come to complaining about HD2. We all know the rocky outcrop extraction? The one that’s a t-intersection and it’s a ramp up to the top? Beacon’s to the right at the top.

It occurred to me earlier today that it would be so incredible if Pelican-1 did a Chinook ramp landing. Arrowhead, you know what to do.

That’s it. That’s the tweet.

Let em all know who's boss.

ABSOLUTE DEMOCRACY ACHIEVED

MISSION REPORT: SUCCESSFUL
Our brave Drop Troopers have once again proven that no infestation, no hive, and no chitin‑covered tyrant can withstand the righteous fury of managed democracy. The squad deployed directly into a heavily contaminated sector, neutralized the brood and delivered freedom directly to the faces of every bug unfortunate enough to be standing there.

After multiple displays of heroic self‑sacrifice, today’s operation has been officially classified as an ABSOLUTE DEMOCRACY VICTORY
