Helldivers 2 is fun the first 50 hours till you hit difficulty suicide and helldive.
Game's just way to bugged after that. Vaulting system is rubbish, vaulting stuff you don't want too and can't vault stuff you want too. Why even have a vaulting button if the game decides anyway. There's invisible stuff you can't go through everywhere, so you gotta vault and forget kiting bugs around a dead Bile Titan.
They have a very small arsenal of weapon types, but that doesn't matter because only two weapons are actually worth using. The ones that did work they nerfed in latest update, because players got toxic and kicked non-meta players from sessions. The Spear (Javelin) is useless because the developers can't even do a simple tracking system, 90% of Strategem weapons and turrets are useless because of balancing or friendly fire. Some of the weapons have weird animations as well, so when it looks like you're clear to reload nothing happens.
The whole friendly fire thing was cute at first but now that the viable weapons kill more friends than enemies the fun stops and get really, really tiresome after a while.
For some reason you get a bonus to money at endgame difficulties but who cares about that when you have it all unlocked when you get there. The experience bonus is nice, but what about a bonus to samples so so you get even more useless stuff.
The DRM is rubbish as well, even tho I personally have had too many problems myself, a lot of my friends have.

Don't get me wrong. The game is really fun with friends till you hit sweatlord difficulties then all the bugs ruin the fun.
Early game Helldivers 2 - 8/10, but late game is annoying 1/10.

Not usually my kind of game, but it still kept me interested the whole way through. Definitely a must have if you like solving riddles and catching the bad guy!
