澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Helldivers 2 exploded onto the scene in February to rave reviews, but a controversial decision by Sony saw it review-bombed, and then weapon nerfs got it more negative cr♏iticism. Now, reviews on Steam are finally ♒back up to overwhelmingly positive.

The game was first review bombed back in May due to a surprise announcement that 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:PSN accounts would be required, even for PC players. The problem is that about two-thirds of the world doesn't have access to PSN, so the game was 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:delisted in 177 countries following the news. Steam even gave refunds to pla൲yers with hundreds of hours of play time.

澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:PlayStation walked back the requirement following the backlash, but the game still isn't on s𓃲ale in those countries. It's a massive shot in the foot from Sony, because the game was selling incredib🐟ly well.

In August, things were looking up fo🦩r Helldivers 2, but a series of weapon nerfs spoiled the fun for a lot of players. As a live-service title, the game is constantly being adjusted by developer Arrowhead, but nerfing weapons didn't fulfill the power fantasy we had all come to love. I'd just unlocked the extra fire weapon damage when the flamethrower nerfs hit.

After 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:a massive 63-day patch dropped in October, many weapons and stratagems were rebalanced to prioritize t꧂hat glorious feeling you get when you bring managed democracy to a terminid planet. This seems to have done the trick, as are back up to overwhelmingly positive.

I played a lot of Helldivers 2 at launch, and have jumped back into the fray sporadically ever since, and I'm happy with where the game is at right now. I understand why some weapons had to be tuned down a bit, because they were dominating the meta and causing people to get kicked from squads if they wer♕en't being used. But, in a co-operative shooter, it makes more sense to bring weaker weapons up to par rather than reducing the viability of the most popular ones.

Creative director Johan Pilestedt agrees that the game became less about "澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:a fun, chaotic, chall♕engiꦅng, emergent experience" and too much about "challenge and competitiveness." It's back on the right trac🐓k now, though.
