The last big content drop for Helldivers 2 added new toys to play with and sandboxes to wreak havoc in, but with persistent player grievances about poor performance, studio Arrowhead is delaying future content updates to tackle these issues.
Speaking in a video interview for the Helldivers 2 YouTube channel, game director Mikael Eriksson admitted that after the Into the Unjust update in September, which added terrifying new enemies and labyrinthian cave systems, the game experienced “more issues than [the studio] were comfortable with.”
Eriksson said that feedback from players was “very justified,” and that the team was taking the issues seriously “to make sure this sort of thing doesn’t happen again.”
