helldivers 2 new ceo plans to keep the game's top glitch

Jul 09, 2024 3:26 PM

Helldivers 2 players have discovered an amusing bug that prevents fall damage by performing emotes mid-air. The new CEO of Arrowhead Game Studios, Shams Jorjani, supports keeping this bug in the game. The emote changes the player's orientation, allowing them to survive falls unscathed. The physics model of Helldivers 2 calculates damage based on the part of the body that hits the ground first. While Jorjani enjoys this unexpected feature, there's potential for adding realistic mechanics to reduce fall damage, like armor or parachute gear. Helldivers 2 continues to evolve as Arrowhead addresses its phenomenal success and ongoing development challenges.
