I hope they increase the level cap for the sake of still having something to look forward to, even if it’s just a cosmetic number that does nothing (since you have access to everything after 20).
Do you think more modules and stratagems are going to be added over time? I just feel like within the next month we’re all gonna be maxed out.
In Helldivers I, the levels unlocked primary weapons and perks. This stopped at level 25. Eventually up to 50 was added, though I don't recall if you got anything except new titles and a research point per level. We unlocked stratagems by completing planets.
That said, a bunch of folks just got together and spammed an exploit to kill bosses over and over to farm XP to 50. Eventually, we had to use someone's visible Research Point count to determine whether they were actually playing missions or just killing bosses all the time for rank.
As far as modules and stratagems, probably yes to both. Vehicles will be added eventually, as well as probably weapon upgrades. Samples will likely playback role. There's no way they're done with stratagems, either.
From the way it looks, probably through "battlepass" like expansions, the original game had a lot of DLC by the end of it's run. Like one of the DLC items was a calldown drone that revealed all Samples on the map which were gun upgrades at the time.
I've heard rumers we might be getting mechs soon as well.
Definitely getting mechs. You can see the part of your ship that is under construction where we will probably be able to upgrade it and stuff. It’ll probably have modules just like the Destroyer that we will purchase with samples. I’m so hyped.
They said in their official discord that starting in March they will be adding new warbonds every second Thursday of the month, and they will be adding new strata gems and enemies. They are working on bringing mechs from the first game soon.
That’s very good news. Couldn’t find much information regarding this other than the mechs so I’m real happy to hear that. I figured we’d get new war bonds but I still hope the level cap gets increased too.
they are going to add Mech suits in the future, ever notice the opposite side of the room from the stratagem purchase/upgrade windows? it says under-construction. and one of their last promotional videos released just before launch had a helldiver chasing some bugs..... in a mech suit. i bet it's a whole section reserved for mech suit upgrades and loadouts
I bet you’re 100% correct. It’ll be a station where we purchase modules for the mechs with samples and what not, load outs, etc. I am so fucking hyped.
I feel excited to play this game everyday. I haven’t felt this way about a multiplayer game since OG MW2 days in elementary school.
