The Helldivers 2 community has stood out for trying to maintain camaraderie and also seeking to ensure that everyone behaves in a good manner. But now they are in the middle of a great debate, after a bug was discovered in the game that allows free obtaining of SuperCredits, the premium currency of the title. Something that after Helldivers themselves reported the exploit, the developer claims to be aware of this “undemocratic behavior” and that it will fix it soon.
A user on the official Helldivers 2 Discord channel directly alerted an Arrowhead community manager to the existence of “tutorials circulating on YouTube explaining how to farm free SuperCredits using a glitch in the game.” While the player avoided explicitly detailing the method, he did describe it in general terms: by earning Super Credits, PC users can force quit the game, while PS5 players can completely shut down their console.

By performing this action, the SuperCredits obtained are supposedly kept. “This problem must be solved as soon as possible, since it is an illegitimate method that in the long run damages not only the seriousness of the players, but also the development team,” said the user in his message to the community administrator. . “I hope you take my message seriously.”
Message from Helldiver asking to remove the exploit – via PC Gamer
In the media PC Gamer they comment that they did the test, confirming that although the method works, they assure that its performance is slow and tedious. A test carried out by a site editor managed to obtain only 30 credits after three restarts, evidencing the tedium of repeating the starting sequence, strategy selection and loading screens for each obtain.
For its part, Arrowhead Studios confirmed that it was aware of the situation. “Hello! We are aware of this undemocratic behavior. Anyway, thank you for doing your duty and reporting it. Hooah,” a community manager responded shortly after the original message was posted on the Discord channel.
Something that at the time of writing this note apparently they have not yet done, probably worried about other more important problems, which have kept Grand Game Master Joel and his team busy.
Helldivers 2 players prefer difficulty 7 because everyone is “professional” there, while at the lowest levels everything is chaos and disorder
Helldivers 2 is proving that it is more than “a fad” and continues to delight hundreds of thousands of players around the world. Something that has made many new soldiers come to fight in pursuit of Democracy, some of them discovering things that the majority already know. An example of this is a soldier who has just moved on to difficulty 7, where he says everyone acts like “professionals” and not like in the lowest ones, in which according to him, they do everything wrong and disorderly.
This Helldivers went to the game's community, sharing his thoughts about the differences he found playing on that difficulty level. In his post he says: “No one told me about difficulty 7,” answering the question: “And how good are the players?” made by himself, commenting: “I didn't try any difficulty 7 for a long time because I don't consider myself that dedicated, and because I didn't want to push my co-op friends to higher difficulties.”
