HELLDIVERS 2 Spelerslimiet naar 700K verhoogd

Feb 23, 2024 1:40 PM

Arrowhead Game Studios has increased the player cap for Helldivers 2 to 700,000, up from the previous 450,000 limit due to server capacity constraints. The update will help reduce wait times even though the developer anticipates this new limit will likely be reached soon. A recent update also introduced a feature that sends inactive players to the title screen after 15 minutes, allowing active players more access to the game servers. Helldivers 2 is a cooperative shooter game available on PlayStation 5 and PC, where players work as a team to protect 'Super Earth' from alien threats through various missions. The game offers a humorous tone, engaging gameplay, and the importance of communication among teammates is highlighted.

What improvements have been made in the latest Helldivers 2 update?

The latest update for Helldivers 2 has expanded the player limit to 700,000 and fixed a bug that caused players to get stuck in cutscenes. Additionally, it introduced a measure to deal with inactive players by moving them to the title screen after a period of inactivity, thus improving access for active players.

Helldivers 2 follows in the footsteps of its predecessor, Helldivers, which was well-received for its engaging cooperative gameplay and received praise for its challenging mechanics and satirical take on militaristic sci-fi. The franchise is known for its mix of twin-stick shooter action and strategy, requiring players to work closely together to achieve objectives and survive against waves of extraterrestrial enemies. With the continuation of the series in Helldivers 2, the game retains its core gameplay loop while attempting to expand on the universe and provide players with more content to enjoy, both solo and with friends.
