Helldivers 2 players warn of increased difficulty due to more enemies

After Helldivers 2 update 01.000.100, players noticed an increase in difficulty and enemy spawns, explaining their high mortality rate.

The high levels of Helldivers 2 are not for the faint of heart. Once in combat, you must use your most effective equipment to have even a chance of surviving.

However, those on the higher difficulties noticed that it was even harder after the latest patch.

With many players noticing the issue, there is no doubt that enemy spawn rates have been increased. That said, we don’t know if this is a desire of the developers or a bug.

Helldivers 2 Players Discover Enemy Spawn Rate Has Increased

Those who were completing missions on the highest difficulties were shocked to see how much harder Helldivers 2 has become since the last patch.

However, this does not appear to be specific to any particular difficulty, or even Terminides or Automatons. Enemy spawns have increased significantly for all players across the board.

Many players were therefore frustrated at not understanding what had changed. Especially since the developers didn’t mention anything about it in the patch notes.

Post-patch Helldive difficulty is some fucking nonsense byu/SgtTittyfist inHelldivers

“From my experience, I concluded that in this new patch, the developer omitted the most important part of the patch which is enemy AI and spawn rate. And I honestly believe that the long post explaining their reasoning on the buff and nerf doesn’t target the real problem. The biggest effect of the patch isn’t the weapon but no matter what weapon you use, you won’t be able to clear enemies in front of you. “, affirmed the Redditor.

Others in the thread claimed to have had similar experiences. They are now unable to complete missions on difficulties they dominated before the patch.

“Yes, I noticed all that,” one player commented. “It’s not even patrols or holes that open. it’s just groups materializing and charging at you. Additionally, the divisions between difficulties no longer seem to govern the types of enemies that appear. I had a group of Chargers spawn on difficulty 3 – on Medium. Heavy armored vehicles are not even supposed to appear in Medium except as the main targets of the mission.

The developers of Helldivers 2 have not yet addressed the subject of spawns or increased difficulty. To see if they will answer players’ questions in the future.
