Cloud Plays: Helldivers 2 Official Updates! They Could Actually Turn It Around!

As a seasoned gamer with over two decades of experience under my belt, I have to say that Cloud Plays’ latest video on Helldivers 2 has left me scratching my head more times than I can count. It seems like every time I log in, there’s another update that feels like it was made by a committee instead of a team with a vision.

Key Takeaways:

  • The removal of the orbital air burst shrapnel from the Eruptor was seen as a mistake, and there are indications that it may be reintroduced in a future update.
  • Cloud Plays questions the decision to nerf weapons despite the CCO’s statement that weapons should feel powerful.
  • Potential improvements to the game include a weapon lab for using samples to enhance maxed out weapons and the addition of new content from CAF.
  • Test servers are planned for the future, allowing a limited group of active users to play updated versions of the game, with NDAs in place to prevent spoilers.

The Eruptor Nerf:

In the video, Cloud Plays talks about taking out the orbital air burst shrapnel from the Eruptor, a move that was criticized by several gamers. Yet, hints suggest that this issue might get addressed in an upcoming patch, possibly boosting the weapon’s strength.

Conflicting Decisions:

As a passionate gamer, I’m puzzled by Cloudfall Studios’ choice to tone down the power of weapons in our favorite game, given that their Creative Director emphasized that these weapons should feel potent. This apparent contradiction leaves me wondering about the thought process guiding the modifications and improvements they plan for the game.

Potential Improvements:

Cloud Plans proposes creating a Workshop for weapon upgrades, where players can utilize collected samples to boost their fully-upgraded weapons. This offers a reason for storing samples and gives maxed-out players a fresh objective. Additionally, introducing new content from CAF is suggested as a potential enhancement to the gameplay experience.

Test Servers and NDAs:

Cloud Plays announces that it will soon open test servers, giving a select number of active gamers an opportunity to try out updated game versions. Non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) will be required to ensure that those outside the testing group don’t get spoiled about the changes. At this time, details on how to apply for access to these test servers have not been disclosed.
