One of the main controversies revolving around the medium has to do with the preservation of games, mainly through physical media that does not rely on remote servers. In contrast, we have strong growth in so-called games as a service and online multiplayer that base their entire experience on an Internet connection. Helldivers II Coming close with the main mission of clearing the strong deficit of liberation by PlayStation Studio, it became one of the cult gems of its predecessors, PS4 and PS Vita, a few years ago. Of course, due to its multiplayer focus, there are many questions about how it works.
During a visit to our headquarters play station in San Mateo, California, in addition to being able to test for a few hours Helldivers IIWe had a great chance to chat with you Johan PilestedtCurrent CEO Arrowhead Game Studio And the main creator of this IP, we couldn’t help but ask about whether or not the game requires a stable internet connection, as well as the possibility of playing it solo if the whole multiplayer thing isn’t for you. .
“Yes, the game requires a constant internet connection to work. The answer about being able to play in single player is yes, yes you can, but from the beginning Helldivers, one of our goals was to make a cooperative game as authentic as possible. We’ve made several in-game decisions to strengthen this. We believe the game is much better when played with friends. On the other hand, we didn’t want to make a game that was impossible to play alone. In single player we focus more on you being more careful with your tactics, while in multiplayer you can use your superior firepower. Alone it is a more cerebral experience,” said the manager.
I have already disclosed to you our previous content, the fact that Helldivers II It’s a very good game, my only real concern is more about the title’s model and this very controversial practice of relying entirely on a constant internet connection. Furthermore, I think it is more obvious to all of us that the new Arrowhead Game Studio It’s focused entirely on those who want to play along, something you should definitely take into account if you’re considering giving it a chance.
Helldivers II It will be released this February 8 on both PlayStation 5 and PC with the possibility of crossplay.
