Helldivers 2 players blame Discord server for ‘one-sided’ nerfs

Whenever Arrowhead updates Helldivers 2, it creates division among the players. Now it seems things are getting serious as entire platforms are calling each other out. The Helldivers 2 subreddit has blamed the game’s official Discord for driving “one-sided” changes to the game, primarily regarding particular popular weapon nerfs.

This turf war between the two communities has been going on for a while, though it has been officially contextualized in a thread posted on Tuesday, which compiled screenshots of volatile discussions on Discord. The thread’s creator alleged that players disagreeing with the developers get bombarded with “clown emojies” and negative replies, whereas those praising the devs get all the support. Many in the subreddit agree with this notion, though the consensus is by no means ubiquitous.
