Helldivers 2’s lastest Warbond has simply arrived. It is dubbed Masters of Ceremony, goes for what in my eyes is a really World Warfare One-ish look, and has earned pretty combined evaluations from gamers at first look.
That might have rather a lot to do with the very fact Arrowhead’s been going fairly arduous on the teases since asserting when this Warbond could be revealed forward of time. Nonetheless, it appears to be like like there are many frustrations concerning the content material itself that may have surfaced no matter what was occurring Galactic Warfare-wise.
Proper, what’s Arrowhead cooked up with this Warbond? Properly, as detailed within the PlayStation Blof put up, the theme may be very classic, with costume armours and even a sabre having been uncorked so as to add to loadouts. “To have fun the eradication of the Illuminate invaders, Tremendous Earth mobilizes our most regal wanting troops but – a real celebration of our forebears,” Arrowhead’s Mitchell Ayre wrote.
To that finish, the studio’s made out there the RE-1861 Parade Commander gentle armour set & RE-2310 Honorary Guard medium set, with each being very swanky and boasting a “Bolstered Epaulettes perk” designed that will help you keep away from having your flag-waving limbs break. Maintain the telephone, although. The Parade Commander set options what very a lot appears to be like like a army cap on prime of a helmet, including yet one more stike to the report of a studio which beforehand did not add in a cowboy hat with the final Warbond as a result of it as a result of “folks do not put on hats on helmets”.
Anyway, this Warbond additionally comes with one main weapon – the bayoneted R-2 Modification – and a secondary weapon within the aforementioned CQC-2 Sabre, which understandably appears to be like to be the bit of us are most enthusiastic about. Except for that, there’s the G-142 Pyrotech Grenade, a stratagem the allows you to patriotically wave the Tremendous Earth flag, and a pattern scanner booster.
All in all, the speedy response to it from gamers on the socials appears to be like to be fairly combined. “Tbh, this appears to be like principally ineffective…AND I F**KING WANT IT” one remark in a Reddit thread that just about sums up the sentiment. The bond appears to be like cool within the eyes of loads of these of us, and that is been sufficient to earn a thumbs up from them, however others aren’t impressed with the sensible components of the brand new gear, such because the armour perk and the passive.
“I’m completely not a fan of how every warbond has much less stuff every time however stays the identical worth,” one person wrote, whereas a number of others have dubbed it “underwhelming”.
We’ll should see what the decision is as soon as everybody’s had an opportunity to present the brand new gear a go, but it surely actually appears to be like like there will be mass grumbling if Arrowhead would not whip out one other replace soonish.
