Unveiling the Bug: Helldivers 2 Community Unearths a Strange Discovery
Hey gamers, buckle up for a wild ride because it seems like a member of Helldivers 2’s community has stumbled upon a peculiar bug that’s been playing tricks on PC players. Imagine this – you’re in the heat of the action, sprinting like there’s no tomorrow, only to suddenly slow down to a casual jog without any input from you. Well, it turns out that your helldiver might just be feeling the effects of someone else’s stim. Talk about a plot twist!
Investigating the Mystery Amidst Major Orders
While some players have been diving deep into this mystery, they’ve taken a break from the latest Major Order in Helldivers 2. This order demands players to showcase their valor by saving the Super Earth kids and, well, taking out some baby Terminids. Don’t hesitate, lock and load, and let’s get those targets in your crosshairs.
Unmasking the Bug Buster
The hero who might have cracked this case wide open claims to have a whopping “20+ years of experience in the games industry.” They casually dropped this bombshell at the end of a detailed post on the Helldivers 2 subreddit, discussing the intriguing lifespan of the game and the challenges it has faced so far.
“Here’s one final bug for you,” they stated, “When you’re in a game with a friend, injure yourself to a quarter of your health, and have your friend sprint while using a stim. Voila! The sprint will come to a screeching halt. That’s the secret behind your sudden slowdown during sprinting.”
Testing the Theory
Now, trusting a non-developer to unravel the mystery behind a bug that had hardcore players blaming their keyboards might seem far-fetched. But, some players wasted no time in putting this theory to the test and providing evidence to support the claim.
“Both players on PC, did not slow down a player sprinting with a controller, but did slow them down when they switched to mouse and keyboard,” user MikeAmelung revealed, reinforcing the theory that stims injected by squad members cause the animation glitch.
What Lies Ahead for Helldivers 2
While some speculate about factors like distance and hosting affecting the glitch, it’s clear that Arrowhead will need to address this issue. Additionally, the studio’s CEO has confirmed that there are no plans for a dedicated co-op story mode in Helldivers 2, citing the monumental effort required to create a new gaming experience.
