Do you want to pre-install it? If the bonus armor isn’t your jam then that’s the only other reason I can see to pre-order.

You're bringing democracy to bug-infested shitholes with your GAF mates. Who cares about reviews?

I heard no reviews before launch, so what is it now?
Helldivers 2: When Is the Review Embargo?
Players will be diving headfirst into Helldivers 2 in just a matter of days, making the continued review embargo concerning for some.
www.thegamecrater.com
The Helldivers 2 review embargo will drop on Tuesday, February 6, 2024, at 9 am PST, 12 pm EST, 5 pm GMT, and 4 am AEDT (February 7). This is 2 days before the game’s official release date on Thursday, February 8, 2024, giving players a little wiggle room to decide whether or not to pre-order it.

Lol the very next sentence states that it isn't an official date, but guessed based on typical review embargoes.Helldivers 2: When Is the Review Embargo?

So no, nobody knows when the reviews will drop.

Jesus Christ with these people. Who has a life so hectic, that 48HRS to scan an aggregate score of a funking video game is "little wiggle room. . .?"

I think this is one of those games reviews don't really matter. The gameplay videos are out there. Use that for your aggregate score. You're either into it or not.

I wouldn't really call pre-installing much of an incentive for me since my internet speed is pretty decent. But speaking of which, why is the game apparently only around 25GB on PS5 but the requirement is 100GB for PC? That's silly.

That's an ai generated article. I don't think there are reviews. Previews were enough for me to be sold. Worse case scenario the game is very good but lacks a lot of content at launch. Which would be annoying, but this game should have long legs with tons of content updates. Mechs coming soon after launch and developers have mentioned adding enemy factions, weapons, and biomes, just like they did for HD1Helldivers 2: When Is the Review Embargo?

They've been steadily drip feeding content drops on TUESDAYS.
If there are going to be reviews before launch, I agree with the AI.

Just to clarify this is an "internet required" game right? Buying the physical version of the game is just saving some bandwidth, correct?

As far as I know. The game is a GaaS for sure, I'm surprised more people haven't talked about that and seem more forgiving of it. I guess because of the price tag?

Will this game have matchmaking or do you have to manually invite people for online?

Are they? How do you know? The link posted by someone else said that they guessed the review embargo based on other games, so it's a dud source.

That's because this game proves that quality trumps whining about GaaS.

Yeah it's a bit rubbish to be honest. I'd like to know how much content there is more than anything as this seems to be the only real concern in the previews.

Helldivers 2 is not a rehashed gaas game that is chasing trends. It seems like a naturally organic evolution of Helldivers 1. Just by watching previews, there is nothing really like it on the market. GAAS games that push the genre forward shouldn't automatically be criticized

Pretty hyped for this. Will there be a GAF LFG source? Would be fun to do some co-op.

I heard that deep fried crickets aren't half bad either.

I actually had some dehydrated crickets from a liquor store once. Salted of course.
Surprisingly not that bad. I expected to get there leggy bits stuck in my mouth but nah. Almost like popcorn.

I think it's because PvP and popularity draw the most ire from the usual crowd. Helldivers 2 is PvE and doesn't have industry altering potential. It's never been about GAAS per say.
