    Okay yes, but helldivers is still filled to the brim with bugs. Not quite an equal comparison

    Edit: wild that fanboys will down vote you for simply stating a fact

      People talk like it’s game breaking, or completely unplayable. But I have an absolute blast playing this game every night with my friends. Bugs be damned.

        I damned those bugs myself with a combo of napalm, flamethrower, and incendiary breaker.

        But in all seriousness there are some huge bugs that can ruin a run you spent almost 40 minutes on… So I also bring a 500kg to deal with those.

        Some days I have to restart helldivers after every mission because it crashes during the extraction cutscene.

        It’s ok to admit games aren’t perfect while also enjoying them. Helldivers is fun but it’s no paragon of the industry.

        Same but i either have an network error or the game closes every other game, which isn’t great. Especially after 20 minutes into a mission. I would say i only finish 3 out of 5 games usually. Don’t get me wrong, i played like 150 hours, it’s still not okay

        I have fun playing it too but it’s definitely one of the buggiest games I’ve played, and while most of them aren’t game breaking, I have experienced a few pretty bad ones. One of my favourites put giant holes in the terrain across the entire map, causing me to get stuck and die several times lol.

      The bugs are quite literally a feature.

      There’d be half a game if they took out the Terminids.

      Not a word of a lie. Filled to the brim with bugs and automatons.

      Yeah, it’s bonkers it’s been out for months and months and the Spear is still completely broken.

        I just left a game where someone was using the Spear to great effect, although they were finding it a bit of a pain to lock. That’s pretty different to completely broken.

          I’m shocked. Every time I use it, I can’t get a lock on anything. When I manage to, it works great, but it’s not worth it for me over the quasar.

      I find the game in general pretty mid. I’d rather play DRG 100% of the time.

      Your comment’s score has convinced me that the above post is just paid shillery to promote helldivers.
