Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Helldivers 2 has captivated the gaming community and its charming, if overzealous, attitude toward democracy has helped it become one of the biggest games of 2024. With its addictive gameplay, hilarious propaganda, and ability to not take itself too seriously, droves of players have joined the ranks of the Helldivers.
Only PlayStation 5 and PC received versions of Helldivers 2 at launch. Xbox is yet to join the Galactic War and is unlikely to do so anytime soon thanks to the game being published by PlayStation. 8 Land Vehicles Using Wheels To Run Over Bugs Close Automatons have vehicles, like Annihilator Tanks, yet Helldivers lack many ground vehicle options. Some maps are large, and with a time limit on each mission, a faster mode of transport would solve the issue of seemingly endless walking from objective to objective. The closest thing Helldivers have at their disposal is a mech, yet this lacks the speed to be an effective mode of transport, being closer to an exoskeleton housing an armory.
6 Melee Weapons Fighting The Terminides Up Close & Personal Close A meek melee option does exist in Helldivers 2, but the corresponding stat rarely reaches double figures. In general, getting up close and personal to enemies is a poor strategy, but that could change with effective weaponry for those that like to fight the old-fashioned way. Some Automatons even have energy blades, so incorporating this technology in the name of freedom could prove a viable strategy.
For its interior, perhaps it could offer something like Star Wars: The Old Republic's customization for Guild Flagships, allowing players to add collectibles and art around their bridge. Even banners identical to their capes would help to personalize the place. Plenty of time is spent on a ship while preparing for a mission, so why not allow Helldivers to make it more of a home? It would mean a greater number of purchasable cosmetics for Arrowhead to sell to its players - a win-win.
3 More Gun Mods Adding A Personal Touch To Firearms Close Primary Weapons can already be tweaked. The rate of fire can be changed from automatic to semi-automatic or burst fire if applicable, yet they cannot be further customized with mods, like in other titles. Each firearm has set stats, but this could be changed with mods that allow for a player to tinker with a gun until it plays the way they want it to. For example, they could increase the ammo capacity at the expense of damage.
