Replying to a player on Twitter who said recent patches have made the game "unplayable," Arrowhead CEO Johan Pilestedt conceded that he's not satisfied with his studio's current balancing approach.

"Hey, yeah I think we've gone too far in some areas. Will talk to the team about the approach to balance," he wrote. "It feels like every time someone finds something fun, the fun is removed."

They do that to keep people chasing the new primaries from the war bonds.

The cycle is pretty obvious at this point: warbond comes out, weapon is god, weapon gets nerfed, repeat.

I really have to disagree with this. Can't think of another weapon besides the eruptor to have god status aside from the release breaker on the free starter warbond.

I wasn't there at the time but I remember people talking about the railgun being god status.

[–] TheDirtyBubble@lemmy.world 10 points 6 months ago (1 children)

True but the railgun isn't a warbond weapon. It's a support weapon free to everyone.

Ah good point. I've put 150 hours into HellDivers 2, this should have been second nature to me. Although I picked up Stardew Valley to play 1.6 during the account fiasco and now I'm totally lost in that.
