Look, just about everybody loves Helldivers 2, even when issues have appeared a bit shaky on that entrance on a number of events this 12 months, and generally one of the best ways to indicate that’s by demanding Arrowhead fill it with crossovers. We’re not speaking about official crossovers, and Arrowhead CCO Johan Pilestedt’s simply run down his private record of ones that may be cool in idea, along with saying a factor about the potential of huge PVE battles.
Now, earlier than we get into his picks, it is essential to emphasize that the developer was clear that “these are simply musings”, and that he reckons making an attempt all of them “would dilute the IP and make it a ‘not Helldivers’ expertise”. Nevertheless, it is clear Pilestedt’s executed loads of eager about the potential for such issues, having “an prolonged record of IPs that I actually would like to do a tackle” that he is whipped out in a Tweet.
With out additional ado, this is his record:
So, yup, as you’d anticipate, loads of film franchises you may discover populating your dad’s DVD assortment if he is a blokey bloke of a sure age, and another stuff that he additionally may like, particularly if he is been spelling his efforts to kill stuff for Tremendous Earth by dipping into House Marine 2. In the event that they may very well be organised, it looks as if the dev agrees with one fan’s suggestion that Warbonds that are simply homages to those IPs may very well be a pleasant “center floor” possibility for such issues, to keep away from that potential dilution he talked about.
In the same ballpark of issues which may presumably be added to Helldivers 2 in some unspecified time in the future down the road, Pilestedt additionally answered one participant’s question as as to whether Arrowhead’s considered including “huge PVE battles” involving “one thing like 20-30 gamers” all in the identical huge firefight. “Yeah – it comes up fairly typically on the studio,” the dev mentioned, “However there are engine limitations. We’ll see what occurs.”
One factor that has come to Helldivers 2 is a contemporary patch eariler in the present day, so be sure that to take a look at what it included whilst you’re right here daydreaming about cooking a Xenomorph along with your flamethrower.
