Johan Pilestedt Urges Patience Before Buying Helldivers 2
Johan Pilestedt, CEO of Arrowhead Game Studios and the mind behind Helldivers 2, has a message for eager players: hold off on purchasing the game for now. In a recent post on X, Pilestedt advised potential buyers to wait until the server capacity is able to handle the player base.
Server Struggles Cause Gameplay Interruptions
Pilestedt stressed the importance of a smooth gaming experience, free from long server waits, for those investing in Helldivers 2. He encouraged players to prioritize a seamless experience over impulsive purchases, stating, “If you don’t have the funds, wait for it.”
Despite the overwhelming success of Helldivers 2, boasting over 450,000 players on Steam alone, server overload issues have caused disruptions in gameplay. Arrowhead Game Studios is working tirelessly to fix these problems, with an update on the horizon to address critical issues.
While the studio works on resolving server-related issues, Pilestedt’s message serves as a cautionary tale for players to practice patience before immersing themselves in Helldivers 2.
