As one 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Helldivers 2 communꦍity manager says farewell to his Super Earth responsibilities, he says that there've b🃏een "things I wanted to say that I sometimes couldn't."

If you're an avid supporter of Managed Democracy and like to keep up with all the latest happenings from High Command and beyond, chances are you'll have seen an update or two from community manager Thomas 'Twinbeard' Petersson. Petersson has consistently been a helpful go-between for Helldivers 2 players and the devs at Arrowhead, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:passing on feedback and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:giving us glimpses into developments that might be happening behind the sc💟enes at the studio. However, in a on Discord, he's confirmed thatꦛ today is his last day in the role as he's coming to the end of his contract.

"There've been some rough patches, but I al💮ways felt that we ventured through the fire tornadoes and s𒀰andstorms together," he says. "We fought the alien scum and bot menace on the battlefield, experienced the same bugs, and we also turned the tide together. Helldivers 2 is a much healthier game today than it was a few months ago, and it has a bright future alongside all of you. Thank you for sticking with it, us at Arrowhead and me during my service here. Most of you know I neither BS nor lie, so when I say I'm forever grateful for you taking me along this amazing helldive, know that it's from the bottom of my heart."

While he doesn't get into any details, he then reveals that he wasn't always able to say everything he wanted to. "There were things I wanted to𒁏 say that I sometimes couldn't. That's part of the job," he says. "There were also things I wanted to do that we never got around to – or haven't, rather. The show goes on, just wit🐼hout me."

To wrap up his message, he asks that players "try to be patient with all the hard-working devs if things 𝔉take more time than you would like them to" but stay as dedicated to Super Earth as they always have been. He'll still be around, he says, but his comments will no longer represent Arrowhead.&n🍌bsp;

After awards haul, Helldivers 2 devs lament the "dire state" of the games industry: "We need to be there to help each other."
