Helldivers players are split on the new bugs added after the latest update. In their travels across the galaxy, Helldivers 2 players encounter enemies from different factions who try to prevent them from ensuring the safety of Super Earth and spreading Managed Democracy.

Helldivers 2 Players Are Split on the New Bugs

With the release of the newest Helldivers 2 update, Into the Unjust, the dangers have increased with the introduction of Hive Worlds. These desert planets feature a dangerous, randomly generated cave system, and the first Hive World, Oshaune, is now ready to be explored. Accompanying the introduction of the new planets, players have a new set of missions to complete, including destroying Hive Lungs in caves and escorting a mobile oil rig. Into the Unjust has also brought new enemies for Helldivers 2 players to face, but they are creating polarized reactions within the community.

Helldivers 2 is often a team effort, but for players who prefer to defend Managed Democracy solo, one Warbond is a must-have.

Helldivers 2 Players Can't Agree on the New Bugs

The Helldivers 2 community is divided over the new bugs, with some enjoying the additions and others not so pleased with them. Redditor lebaminoba asked players to learn how to deal with the new Helldivers 2 enemies first, rather than asking for nerfs. Meanwhile, user __Elzy expressed their frustration with players who are against nerfs, posting a clip in which they are killed by one of these creatures in just one blow. Using humor, Redditor Stoneybro13 posted a meme depicting the community's current situation on the subject.

With the release of Into the Unjust, Helldivers 2 added four Terminids found in the new Hive Worlds. Rupture Spewers live up to their name by attacking with corrosive acid spew and burrowing into the ground to regenerate. Rupture Warriors are a mutation of the Warrior already known to players, but without the UV-chitin. Due to this, they are weak against sunlight and prefer to stay underground. Chargers are a variant altered by the Gloom, the new threat in Helldivers 2, and their biggest weapon is high speed. Dragonroach is a flying creature similar to the Bile Titan that also launches acid attacks against players.

Helldivers 2 Players Are Split on the New Bugs

Arrowhead has not yet addressed the controversy over the balance of the new Terminids, which is not the only challenge players are facing. With the arrival of Into the Unjust, Helldivers 2 is having performance issues and crashes, preventing the community from fully immersing themselves in the new content. Thus, gamers wait for upcoming patches with improvements and to find out whether these bugs will be balanced or not.

The Galaxy’s Last Line of Offence. Enlist in the Helldivers and join the fight for freedom across a hostile galaxy in a fast, frantic, and ferocious third-person shooter.

URGENT BROADCAST – SUPER EARTH ARMED FORCES
Freedom. Peace. Democracy. Your Super Earth-born rights. The key pillars of our civilization. Of our very existence. But the war rages on. And everything is once again under threat.

Join the greatest military force the galaxy has ever seen and make this a safe and free place to live.

BECOME A LEGEND
You will be assembled into squads of up to four Helldivers and assigned strategic missions. Watch each other’s back – friendly fire is an unfortunate certainty of war, but victory without teamwork is impossible.

LOADOUTS
Rain down freedom from above, sneak through enemy territory, or grit your teeth and charge head-first into the jaws of combat. How you deliver liberty is your choice; you’ll have access to a wide array of explosive firepower, life-saving armor and battle-changing stratagems… the jewel in every Helldiver’s arsenal.

REQUISITION
Super Earth recognises your hard work with valuable Requisition. Use it to access different rewards that benefit you, your squad, your destroyer ship and our overall war effort.

THREATS
Everything on every planet wants you dead. That’s what we’re dealing with. Each enemy has distinct and unpredictable characteristics, tactics, and behavior – but they all fight ferociously and without fear or morality.

THE GALACTIC WAR
Capturing enemy planets, defending against invasions, and completing missions will contribute to our overall effort. This war will be won or lost depending on the actions of everyone involved.

We stand together, or we fall apart.
