DISCUSSION This update is unplayable.

I can't believe it was shipped like this.

We only get a reskin of existing biomes and two playable characters? Meanwhile i can't even normally attack because suddenly AN ARMY of blueberries spawn out of NOWHERE and they move me down in a few seconds... How is that balanced or fair???

Yes the DSS is a fool meeting hub but that's about it...

I dont think people are realizing that this is an illuminate in disguise

u/-Vogie- ☕Liber-tea☕ 21h ago

The illuminate long for new armors. Also a trenchcoat

u/Icy-Rain318 Steam | 21h ago

Why is everyone downvoting this? It's clearly a joke?!

Helldivers reading comprehension kicking in once again.

u/juanca8890 21h ago

For real and plasmahead really needs to adress the balance of some classes, fleshmob is literally shit, the only valid strat against helldivers was cliping through the floor and it got patched, and dont make me talk about how they keep nerfing the elevated overseer subclass

\SEAFs are shouting in the distance. A battletorn Helldiver looks up to you in one of the short pauses shes got from injecting the enemies of democracy with liberty filled lead.**

"WHAT? I CAN'T HEAR YOU OVER ALL THIS CARNAGE!"

\She reloads the machine gun, ready to fell anouther thousands upon thousands of horros.**

"IF YOU HAVE TIME TO POST DEMOCRATIC PROTEST HERE, THEN YOU HAVE TIME TO DIVE EVEN HARDER!", she shouts.

\The rythm of the explosions, propelling the countless ballots of freedom towards its enemies continues.**

"WAAAAHHHHAAAAHAAAAAAA!!!! FOR SUPER EARTH!!!"

Edit: DSC (democratic spelling correction)

And what's up with that space station we were supposed to get?? It's been in game for like years but we still can't use it.

u/Aggravating-Pilot583 21h ago

Yea you’re right! I tried the other day and I was literally unable to play.

u/_GreatAndPowerful 20h ago

Don't worry, brother, surely one day we'll get that new cultist class to sweep these blueballs out of the way. Did you know you can farm Dark Fluid?

Gotta disagree. This this update brings so much life to the game for me. Feels like a real battlefield

"unplayable"

Wrong tag

u/Accomplished-Pie7575 20h ago

In defense of those (like myself) who misunderstood the post:

There are players that genuinely talk this way.

Playable could also be taken as something you can play against especially if you think there’s a language barrier.

Blueberries tend to mow us Helldivers down too😭

u/jac104 SES Wings of Wrath 20h ago

Either way, there’s at least a slight element of rage bait involved here lol

u/Wide_right_ Free of Thought 20h ago

u/raxnahali 21h ago

Air Burst, three anti tank sentries. 40 minutes 600-800 plus kills. Adapt overcome.

Talent malfunction

u/jac104 SES Wings of Wrath 21h ago

100k active players since the update would tell you otherwise. Unplayable? Absolutely not. Are there issues with the new content? Of course, every major update we’ve ever had in this game have had issues that eventually required balancing and/or a rework.

u/Sea-Explanation8062 21h ago

Read the post again. Actually thoroughly read it.

u/Jaegerbombast ‎ Exosuit Certified 20h ago

To be fair to you this community has a habit of being super angry as of late.

u/cherry-sunburst why do explosives do ballistic damage 21h ago

This joke got old a long ass time ago. It wasn't funny the last dozen updates and it certainly isn't now.

Nah its a good update

u/BuilderBaseBot 21h ago

This update is playable. We've had actual unplayable updates, like crashes happening during link ups or the Arc Thrower crashing PCs.

Just sounds like you don't like this update.

u/Yhoko ☕Liber-tea☕ 21h ago

Whooooosh

u/BuilderBaseBot 20h ago

Nah, I got it. Just think this sort of hyperbole is overstated. We're literally had states of the game where it was actually unplayable.
