The Helldivers 2 developer is in “crisis mode” after bug-infested PS5 launch according to CEO

Hordes of creepy crawlies are replaced by heaps of bugs and server issues following Helldivers 2’s big launch on PS5.

Yeah, the servers took a dive this morning, very fun game so far though

Once the issues are ironed out I think Helldivers 2 will be a hit. It's already selling very well on both PS5 and PC!

LG_Fox_Brazil817d ago

I agree, I am kinda surprised the game sold so well on PC to be honest

Plague-Doctor27817d ago

Problem with live service co-op games is they are a dime a dozen, and the initial impressions are extremely important. If these issues don't get ironed out asap the game is never going to hit its peak

itsmebryan817d ago

I didn't know it was on PC too. It looks like a mess. I will wait for them to fix it.

thorstein816d ago

But, why are these guys getting a pass? The game is broken. People paid money to play this game and it is broken at launch.

Average of 9 on review scores...for a broken game.

Explains why there were no pre-release reviews to yet another GaaS launch.

helicoptergirl817d ago

Apparently the game is great, but it's having teething issues on launch with overloaded servers etc

Lightning77817d ago

Like most online games nothing out of the ordinary.

Suicide Squad on Steam: 83%
Helldivers 2: 54%

There are more than just teething issues and server instability. Apparently the anti-cheat behaves like a rootkit. Frequent crashes.

Hard to say since Sony was even less generous with review codes than WB.

Game looks like its running at 720 p crashes freezes last time I listen to ppl on here irs the best thing ever it might be good when it's fixed but me and two friends on ps5 all having provlems and don't believe the hype after few hrs it's very samey when it works but hopefully content drops will fix it when it works it's good nor amazing but good

mkis007817d ago

Played for 3 hours straight last night. 5 minutes of server issues at the beginning, but after that it was so much fun. Must have a squad!

Ironmike817d ago

I had some matches but had few crashes freezing but it could be my connection

Sonic1881817d ago

I don't know why developers keep launching games when their games aren't ready to be launch. They haven't learned anything

Si-Fly817d ago

Maybe they’re under pressure from the publisher?

RaidenBlack817d ago

Then the publisher needs to chill

BlackOni817d ago

I don't think anyone could have predicted how popular this game would be. But it's clear from reception that the market is hungry for an intense and intentional, cross platform co op experience.

Tacoboto817d ago

Developers don't launch games - publishers do. And the publisher in this case just can't do any wrong, huh?

derek817d ago

Can't wait to check it out today when I get home from the office.

1UP-Words817d ago

Hopefully it will be working for you!

derek817d ago

Not sure why it wouldn't?

execution17817d ago

🤷‍♂️ worked fine for me this morning when I played it

derek816d ago

Has worked flawlessly for me after a few hours of co-op. Game is fun haven't played online game since forever besides bg3.
