Mar 28, 2024 5:49 PM

In the latest updates for Helldivers 2, the introduction of new weaponry is causing a stir among the game's fanbase. The Quasar Cannon and Heavy Machine Gun have been added to players' arsenals as they tackle the challenge of liberating the planet Troost from the grip of automatons. The Quasar Cannon, a charge-based laser, is well-received by players for its range and power, while the MG-101 has garnered mixed reactions, with some players criticizing its lack of sights and limited ammo. Despite some weapons being temporarily disabled due to in-game issues, the community remains actively engaged, as witnessed by the large number of players participating in the ongoing assault to achieve a major victory. Helldivers 2's arsenal expansion and gameplay strategies continue to be hot topics in the gaming community.

What does the new Quasar Cannon do in Helldivers 2?

The Quasar Cannon is a charge-based laser weapon in Helldivers 2, designed for taking out distant targets. Its infinite ammo and capacity for high damage output are earning it praise among players, despite its lengthy charge time that may not suit every combat situation.

Background Information: Helldivers 2 is the sequel to the original Helldivers, a cooperative, squad-based shoot 'em up game developed by Arrowhead Game Studios. The series is known for its hardcore tactical gameplay where players work together to complete high-stakes missions on procedurally generated maps against various enemy factions. The game emphasizes strategy, teamwork, and the managing of resources, all set in a satirical, dystopian future wherein players take on the role of the Helldivers, the elite soldiers of "Super Earth". Helldivers 2 continues this tradition with new content, weapons, and challenges, maintaining its place as a beloved title for fans of cooperative multiplayer action games.
