It is not usually Helldivers 2’s director pops up on Reddit to dispense a little bit of fascinating perception in the intervening time, since he is nonetheless on sabbatical from developer Arrowhead. Nonetheless, Johan Pilestedt’s simply made a quick cameo on Reddit to disclose the rationale which a bunch of the sport’s helmets boast related circles on their backs.

I am not saying it is a signal of us have an excessive amount of time to go off on bizarre tangents now that the Meridian Singlularity’s floor to a halt and subsequently is not a direct menace to Tremendous Earth, but it surely is likely to be. Ah properly, there’s new stuff coming quickly.

Pilestedt was summoned by a participant on the sport’s subreddit asking the essential query I alluded to above, even offering screenshot proof of those mysterious circle designs on a bunch of mind buckets of their assortment.

The rationale they exist, because it seems, is the small matter of your diver with the ability to breathe. Offering an oxygen provide to your soldier throughout planetfall – after they hop of their pod and descend into battle – was the intention the devs had after they added these circles.

What are these circles on the helmets?

“When the Helldiver emerges from the Hellpod a connecting hose was purported to disconnect to clarify it, however we did not have time to make the animation for it,” the director defined. So, studying between the traces, since that connecting hose animation did not make it, there’s nothing in-game really connecting your diver’s helmet to their pod’s air provide, which means they need to simply be holding their breath.

Rattling, as if simply hurtling by means of orbit in the direction of a hostile world affected by baddies and hazards that’d love to tear you to shreds wasn’t pant-shittingly scary by itself. These poor fascist Tremendous Earth troopers, you virtually really feel sorry for ’em.

Anyway, of us naturally then requested if the devs have time so as to add this animation in now the sport’s out, main Pilestedt to reply: “Really there’s a lot the staff is engaged on. I believe we have now much less time than earlier than launch, since we now wish to launch nice updates ever so usually to maintain the sport contemporary!”

I suppose everybody’s simply gonna should maintain doing lung capability workout routines till Arrowhead can spare a minute. Had you ever puzzled about these helmet particulars? Tell us beneath!
