    The game looks great. I guess they fixed the more glaring issues with their initial release.

    People seemed to have issues logging in, matchmaking or CDT randomly. I’ll wait for a few trusted reviews but it looks like something I’ll enjoy.

      I refunded on day 1 because their anti cheat was preventing it from launching on Linux. They had a fix out Friday night, so I repurchased and have put maybe 6hrs into it.

      I’ve been playing the early access Starship Troopers Extermination over the last 6 months, and after 30 minutes of Helldivers I told my friend “they’ve made a better Starship Troopers game than the Starship Troopers game.”

      There’s a couple bugs here or there, but just playing 4-man with the homies seems to have avoided all the matchmaking issues.

        I have Starship Troopers Extermination as well but I feel it has a long way to go still. I’m really tempted now to get Helldivers 2 and keep Extermination on the side as it progresses in Early Access.

      I had a bug where the obstacle you’re meant to crouch under spawned in at a height too low even for crawling. I had no idea it was a bug because I had never seen the tutorial before. After leaving and re-entering the tutorial it spawned in at the correct height.

      Game is awesome though. If they smooth out the experience it will be my shooter of the year.
