Summary
- Fans of Helldivers 2 want the mannequin in the Super Destroyer to be customizable.
- While much of the game's hub area can be customized, players feel like Arrowhead Studios missed adding this fun way to let players show off their favorite armor set.
- Helldivers 2 remains PlayStation's fastest-selling game of all time, selling 12 million copies in its first 12 weeks.
Some Helldivers 2 fans think developer Arrowhead Studios is missing out on a fun way to add more customization to the game, with a recent post to the game's online community sparking discussion. There are plenty of ways players can customize their Helldivers 2 experience, though some fans think there's a glaringly obvious omission in the game's main hub, with many asking for the option to change the mannequin found in the Super Destroyer.
Helldivers 2 became one of the best-selling games on platforms like Steam and the PlayStation Store following its release earlier this year, with Arrowhead continuing to support the game with multiple updates and major overhauls. Since its release, Helldivers 2 has seen the arrival of mechs, as well as new areas to explore and conquer, with the thrill of fighting both Automatons and Terminids proving to be incredibly addictive for leagues of players. However, Helldivers 2 also offers a lot in the way of customization, though some fans feel like Arrowhead has missed a key opportunity.
Helldivers 2 Leak Teases Clan System and New Stratagems
A recent Helldivers 2 leak gives details about a clan system and new stratagems that will allegedly be released in the future.
Reddit user DemiDeviantVT thinks the mannequin in the game's hub area should be customizable, begging Arrowhead to add this feature in a future update. The mannequin is found in the Super Destroyer, which acts as the central hub area for Helldivers 2. Players load and launch missions from their Super Destroyer, which itself can be customized in a variety of ways. However, the mannequin features a static set of armor despite seemingly being a perfect place to display players' recent unlocks or favorite armor sets.
Helldivers 2 Fans Want A Customizable Mannequin in the Super Destroyer
The core of Helldivers 2 is its gameplay, which tasks players with eliminating swarms of both robotic, Terminator-esque opponents called Automatons and large insects dubbed Terminids. The game gives fans plenty of ways to make their game their own, with personal expression being marketed as a core feature of the overall experience. Helldivers 2 players can earn armor pieces by leveling up their Warbond, with new items released at certain intervals.
Helldivers 2 Warbonds are available in both paid and premium versions, offering players additional content in a tiered system similar to battle passes from other live-service games. New Warbonds are issued on the second Thursday of every month. Along with fresh pieces of armor, Helldivers 2's Warbonds also feature new items such as weapons and Stratagems. Players can also unlock new items through Helldivers 2's major order system, which tasks players with completing a specific challenge in a certain amount of time.
