As Helldivers 2 players digest the game’s first balance patch, developer Arrowhead has discussed the thinking behind changes to weapons and stratagems, calling on players to give them a chance.
Everyone knew railgun was getting nerfed. How in the world do you justify a weapon more viable than equipment that needs two people to peak perform or calldowns with literal minutes between uses?
People are mad cause they thought they were good at the game playing on the highest difficulties and taking down elite enemies without a scratch, only to be informed no, they weren’t as good as they thought and were just exploiting a severely unbalanced item that sidestepped the intended difficulties of dealinf with those enemies.

I don’t think everybody reads all the patch notes, they just read “nerf” and begin the kneejerk
