Discrepancies in Features and Color Scheme:
Cloud Plays points out the disappointment players have experienced with certain features in Helldivers 2. The ice cleat boots, which were expected to provide an advantage on icy terrain, do not function as intended. This oversight raises questions about the attention to detail in the game’s development. The discrepancy in the color scheme of the black tenderizer also stands out, with players receiving a different version than what was promoted. However, the developer has acknowledged the mistake and plans to rectify it in a future update.
The Dominance of the Pummeler Weapon:
Cloud Plays discusses the pummeler weapon, an SMG that has gained popularity among players due to its effectiveness. The pummeler’s concussive rounds and stagger effect make it a formidable choice, overshadowing the liberate concussive weapon. A Reddit post questioning the purpose of the liberate concussive in light of the pummeler’s superiority has gained traction, indicating that many players have recognized this discrepancy. It remains to be seen if the developer will make adjustments to balance these weapons.
Potential Expansion to Delisted Countries and Helmet Traits:
The CEO’s comments on the availability of Helldivers 2 in 177 delisted countries spark curiosity and confusion. While the game is currently not accessible in these countries, the CEO expresses a desire to work with PlayStation and Valve to make it available everywhere. However, the reasons for the difficulty in achieving this are unclear, and Cloud Plays invites viewers to share their insights and opinions on the matter. Additionally, discussions about adding unique traits to helmets in Helldivers 2 are mentioned. Originally, each helmet was intended to have a unique HUD, but this feature was cut due to time constraints. Cloud Plays expresses disappointment in the lack of personality and variation in helmet designs, and hopes that the developer will implement these changes in the future.
