Gaming🎮 Helldivers 2 devs taking "more time" to cook up its next weapon balancing patch, with an Eruptor revamp on many wishlists

While Helldivers 2 players still have plenty of enemies to cut down in order to accplish the game's least Major Order, plenty are already thinking about what they'd like to see from Arrowhead's next bout of weapon balancing. The Eruptor looks to be a the top of a lot of their lists, but it looks like they could be waiting a little while, with Arrowhead suggesting that it still needs a bit more time to cook up something good.

While things have been chugging on just fine in-game, even now that we're into the Second Galactic War all of a sudden, some of the game's recent patches have left some vocal players a bit underwhelmed. That said, a recently announced reversion of enemy spawn rates to their pre-patch state went down pretty well, so here's hoping this next batch of weapon revamps can do the same, even if pleasing everyone's impossible.

Responding to a player in Helldivers 2's Discord server asking whether there'll be another weapon balancing patch arriving soon, community manager Twinbeard simply responded: "More time. We're cooking." The player response to this looks to be bit mixed. Some have applauded the studio for taking more time to test things out before setting them in stone than it seemigly has with a few of the game's recent tweaks and updates, while others are citing a lack of faith in the studio's ability to cook up a balacing patch that'll earn their seal of approval.
