A frantic co-op shooter that offers an unrelenting challenge. This chaos generator will delight friend groups who enjoy being pushed to the brink of failure. [Issue#39, p.80]

It is quite simply the best co-op experience i had, and a masterclass in how to handle a liver-service game in a good, honest and fair way.

The game was incredible at launch. However the devs showed their true colors over time. Antagonizing the player base. Purposefully ruining the experience and fun of the game to feed their ego and grunt fantasy kink. They just love to abuse us and create problems to sell solutions. But they sure as hell don’t care about fixing the countless bugs and issues.
Without counting most of the game was outsourced to top it all off. Overall. Just don’t spend on it. Take it from someone who loved playing back in the days

It was a very good game at launch, but every update since 2024 has made the game worse. The developers do not understand why people enjoy their game, and it shows. Every patch takes away more than it adds. Every change shows a lack of care and understanding. Changing mechanics to be less fun. Prioritizing selling new content while leaving old content and features broken for years. There is no content after the first ~20 hours that you can get without paying money. A recent update started paywalling vehicles for the first time and broke the game completely for Linux and Steam deck. Not to mention that performance is genuinely the worst I've seen in any modern game, likely due to its kernel level anticheat that doesn't stop cheaters. If I reviewed this a few months after launch I'd give it a 9. Now? The game is literally unplayable, with random crashes and hard locks that, in one occasion, forced me to replace my motherboard. I cannot give a game I can no longer play even a mediocre score.

Don't Buy This Game!!!
Let me be clear. This game is great, but the studio Arrowhead (AH) and the devs are too busy killing their own game. It is a constant cycle of "its so over" and "we are so back." This game is currently uphold by players' hope that the incompetent devs can somehow improve the game instead of destorying the game through their pathetic ego and **** head of AH said they are not focusing on any progression, any fixes to the mistakes they made or take in any feedback from the wider community. They are stuck in thier own bubble focusing purely on player count and only listen to yes-men who listen to them. Look at the recent AMA (Ask me anything), they did on reddit. It was the worst AMA I have ever seen, it is only delusion and deflection. The devs **** at their own game but they still want to make it into their "grunt fantasy." The only progression you will get is by paying (warbond, aka season pass). The AH from the start of this game is dead. The only thing that remains is greed and **** devs will lie to you over and over again. They will make things harder for you, rules that apply to you does not apply to the enemy. The only time they actually fix anything is either 1) player count dips so low, they can't ignore anymore, such as during the 60 day patch when they were nerfing everything and ignoring everyone or 2) before the release of a new warbond, since they are greedy POS who creates problems so they can sell you the **** you have some semblance of intelligence, unlike the glazedivers too busy defending the devs like all the nintendo and playstation fanboys, look at all their promises. From better communication, to not nerfing what our equipment (like the Coyote), and look at how their Mods and devs talk to the players when there are no cameras pointing at them. They are delusional at best, incompetent people who got lucky at worst. The devs have been constantly increasing their studio size but the quality of work has been only getting worse. A side note, look at the content, from the battle for super earth, the squids, cyberstan, these are not the work of AH. They outsource everything to a 3rd studio, they are only there to put it into the game and do some balancing (to AH balancing means nerfing everything that is fun). AH will fix a harmless bugs like leaving the shuttle during extraction but will not fix bugs like enemy clipping through terrain. This game has no hope with the current people in charge, it would been better if it was to be handed off to another studio.

I'm blown away by the feel of the game and just how much fun it is to play online by myself and with my brothers. The leveling up system, replayability, variety of the missions, and the story have made it worth dusting off my DualSense controller.

Helldivers 2 is a testament to the power of teamwork and tactical gameplay, wrapped in a satirical package that's hard to put down.

Beautiful, amazing even, this will go down as the greatest invention since the wheel and even then that circular slab of nothingness doesn't come close to the freedom and democracy this game emanates.

Helldivers II from developer Arrowhead Game Studios is a team-driven experience that is goal-driven fun wrapped in a goofy Starship Troopers tip of the hat. While the gameplay can get repetitive, the reward system helps to balance it out.

I had an exceptional amount of fun with HELLDIVERS 2 and will happily boot it up whenever I want to experience some frantic co-op shooting action. Throw in a superb sense of humour and oodles of rewarding unlockables and you're left with a cape-worthy offering.

Helldivers 2 is extremely silly. It’s utterly over the top, and it’s not very deep, but GOOD GOD, I have had a ball with it this past week. Its general simplicity may end up dooming it to be a short-lived flash in the pan… But what a brilliantly bright flash it would be.

Helldivers 2 is an excellent co-op shooter that lacks a bit of variety in the long run despite many unlock options.

Helldivers 2 struggles to appeal after stripping out so much of what made its prequel memorable, and if that’s all that was wrong with it I’d be sadly grateful. Miserably, it’s such a wreck of a product that it spends significant amounts of time in a near-unplayable state while the rest of the time is typified by frequent crashes and other technical difficulties. You're supposed to expect a certain level of quality in a Sony-published game, and Helldivers 2 is a reminder that such expectations are naive as all f.ck.

¿Qué puedo decir de este juego?
Es UNA OBRA MAESTRA.
Helldivers 2, es sin duda alguna el juego cooperativo PVE más divertido e inmersivo que he jugado en mi vida, ¿a quien no le gusta masacrar una especie entera en nombre de la democracia tutelada?
No puedo decir mucho de este juego, es simplemente increíble.

Le jeu est beau graphiquement le système de stratagème et cool mais les quelques **** bug enlève 1 pts à ma note est le gameplay redondant enlève à son 1 pts sans compter sur les rares joueurs toxiques et la difficulté pour trouver des super-crédits (monet principale du jeu pour s'acheter des pack, des skins, des armes qui fait perdre à mon sens 1 pts. ma est donc de 7/10 ou 14/20

Gets boring fast. Repetitive. Maps are the same. Doesn’t seem like this game has been out a year and a half. Clunky. Sloppy. Delayed controls. Glad I didn’t waste money on a PS5 for this

These are under attack from deadly alien civilizations, conspiring to destroy the Super Earth and its values.
