澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Helldivers 2 developer Arrowhead has strongly suggested it'll start slowing down the release of new pa💃tches to maintain quali♛ty.

T🦩his comes from the official channel, in which community manager Twinbeard was asked w✤hen the latest patch will drop. "When it's done," Twinbeard replied.

There's been a pervading sentiment from inside Arrowhead that the developers have struggled since launc𝓡h to keep up with the game's explosive success, and it seems now the studio is keen to give itself som🐬e breathing room when it comes to releasing new updates.

"We want to take some more time for this one and potentially between future patches since we feel cadence has probably been a bit too high to be able to maintain the quality standꦯard we want and you deserve," Twinbeard said.

Just yesterday, Twinbeard was asked about the ongoing issue of weapons balancing in Helldivers 2 and said simply that 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Arrowhead needs "more time," adding, "We're cooking." Today's messaging from Twinbeard, while similar⭕ in tone, appears to be related to Helldivers 2's update release cadencꦍe more generally.

"Patching a lot risks can easily disrupt work flow and takes more resources than you migไht think; it needs planning, implementing, monitoring, possible tweaking in hotfixes etc," Twinbeard said. "For this one we prefer to stretch it out a little, hopefully with a good result."

Asked whether new updates will be released bi-weekly or monthly going forward, Twinbeard said that has yet to be decided. "I'd say it's [something] we have🍰 to try out and get a feel for. ATM we feel a slightly lower cadence overall will benefit bo💦th us, you and the game."

Following a string of generally poorly received balance updates, A♔rrowhead recently confirmed it'🔯s looking into test servers to allow for some player feedback before patches are deployed to the full game. That, combined with a slower release cadence, will ideally keep players happy and ensure t๊he folks at Arrowhead aren't burning themselves out.

Helldivers 2 CEO wants the galactic war to last "forever" even if Arrowhead has to "sunset" the game in the far future and the devs have to make an AI game master.
