Arrowhead creative director agrees Helldivers 2 needs a harder difficulty mode after the 'buff every
By Dr. Eleanor Vance | Published on January 01, 0001
Arrowhead finally dropped that big Helldivers 2 rebalancing patch that's been over a month in the making, and the word is good: how much more powerful guns and stratagems feel across the board, and crucially, they like having way more options to take down Bile Titans, Chargers, and Hulks. The largest Terminid and Automaton threats are now less resilient against weapons many players always thought should deal more damage, like the Autocannon or Thermite Grenade, and are less oppressive as a result.
I'm digging the update too, but I'm also with user , who told Arrowhead creative director Johan Pilestedt on Twitter: "Everything is great but we need a new harder difficulty now." H25 สล็อต I played with the new patch for a few hours today and noticed that, even at higher difficulty levels that I used to avoid because they were too hard, the bugs have lost a lot of their bite.
Since most support weapons and stratagems can now penetrate Charger and Bile Titan armor, my teams are killing them before they even have time to attack. I don't want to go back to the days when an Autocannon round would bounce clean off a Bile Titan's carapace, but maybe Super Earth is a little too well-equipped to dispense liberty now.
It sounds like Pilestedt is on the same page, at least where difficulty modes are concerned, replying "I agree!" to the user. He didn't go into any further detail, but there's precedent for Arrowhead turning up the heat over time. We just got a higher difficulty mode in August's Escalation of Freedom update: Level 10 "Super Helldive". We can assume the next would be Level 11, and be called something like "Super Duper Helldive," as some fans suggest in the thread.
More time with the update could color that decision, though. We're only hours into a major adjustment for Helldivers 2—maybe the difficulty is fine overall and I just need to get used to levels 9 and 10 when I used to comfortably hang around 7 and 6.
