Conversations about the recent balance patch turned heated after Helldivers 2 developers responded dismissively to player complaints.

This is a dumb take.

If there was a gun that 1 tapped every enemy in the game and had infinite ammo and maybe even auto aimed for you, that would suck a lot of the fun out of the game wouldn’t it?

Would you not want that gun to be nerfed or would you want every gun in the game to become a 1 tap super weapon?

1 tap super weapon, and introduce a viable challenge to make that obsolete.

But you’ll just get premium war bond weapons from here on out to close the difficulty gap.

Bad straw man argument

Eh…it’s sort of a valid argument…however…it’s like instagib in unreal. It was one of the funniest game modes in the game.

Instagib on low level enemies would be fun as hell…then the boss spawns show up and obliterate you…that’s how I thought this game was going to go.

Now it’s really a game of find more ammo and run from anything with armor until your strategems recharge.
