This post
from Johan Pilestedt, creative director at Arrowhead Studios, gives a sales
estimate for HELLDIVERS 2, the PC and PlayStation first-person shooter
homage to Starship Troopers. Despite
some issues that are
still being
worked through, word is the game has sold "around" a million units since its
launch last Thursday (thanks
Reddit). In a
previous post,
Johan addresses the suggestion that the game is pay to win:
I'm partial but we really applied ourselves to not make it p2w even though items are functionally different. The only item that's p2w is the revolver - which will win you any "cool gun" competition. Only (minor) problem is that it's not that good. 🤷
The game is a lot of fun, so they deserve the sales. They did a really good job translating it into third person viewpoint, whether it needed to is a different point. The biggest issues are actually the missing mechs, vehicles and third faction from the first game, the MTX store and the extra grind that's forced on the game because of it.
My biggest issue with the anticheat is that it means there will be absolutely no mods for it unless it's cracked somehow.
