Players continue to complain about the latest major expansion ofHelldivers 2, accusing it of overly nerfing the weapons. This mostly applies to all fire-related weapons, which were among the most used before.
The situation has heated up to the point that even the CEO of the studio, Shams Jorjani, said on the official Discord server that he prefers the previous version of these weapons. Naturally, when making this statement, he made it very clear that it was his personal opinion and not that of the studio.

Many players took Jorjani’s statement about this issue very seriously and are waiting for Johan Pilestedt, another of the company’s visible faces, to speak on the matter as well as to hear his opinion.
