Description:
Helldivers 2 is facing renewed review bombing on Steam as players express frustration over a persistent issue with its Mega-City defence mode.
Arrowhead Game Studios’ third-person action game, Helldivers 2, has received mixed recent reviews following complaints about the inability to complete the Equality-on-Sea defence mission.
This marks the latest chapter in the game’s rocky relationship with its community.

Despite Helldivers 2’s strong launch in 2024 and regular content updates, including the praised Galactic War live-service mode, the game has been review-bombed multiple times.
Previous criticisms focused on weapon balance and controversy surrounding a mandatory PlayStation Network requirement.
The latest backlash centres on the defence of Super Earth’s final two Mega-Cities. Players attempting to hold Equality-on-Sea report that progress consistently caps just below 100 per cent at 99.9783 per cent.

Some players interpreted this as an artificial block preventing completion.
However, the game’s design means the defence mission cannot reach full completion while the Illuminate continuously invade until the time limit expires.
This issue has driven many negative reviews, dropping Helldivers 2’s recent Steam rating to "Mixed."
The frustration comes despite the "Heart of Democracy" update, which introduced these Mega-City defences and led to a notable increase in player numbers.

Arrowhead Game Studios CEO Shams Jorjani has reassured fans that Helldivers 2 remains a priority, even as the studio develops a new project codenamed "Game 6."
For now, players continue to defend Super Earth and engage with ongoing content, awaiting fixes and future updates.
