I don't even know why I'm posting this since it's clickbait

Arrowhead wants it, but the decision is ultimately PlayStation's to make.

Honestly have no idea if this has to do with gameplay

Helldivers 2's Democracy Space Station may have been dominating our Major Orders for the last month, but Arrowhead still isn't "going into the details" on it yet

Like the rest of the game, the DSS will "most likely change and evolve over time"

I feel like the people writing these articles are Xbox fanboys

Arrowhead is getting a little controversial

 

[blueharvest]

 

[blueharvest]

Johan Pilestedt is taking a sabbatical from Helldivers 2 after working 'around the clock' for 11 years, will move on to 'the next Arrowhead game' when he returns

"I am going to take some time now to redeem what was lost from all of those that supported me for over a decade."

Helldivers 2 continues its streak of turning missteps into in-game lore: After a major feature was paused for 24 hours, Super Earth says 'nothing out of the ordinary has happened'

I wonder if this will lead into the next controversy

Helldivers 2 is locking out players who use older CPUs

They will have to buy a new PC or PlayStation.
