Helldivers 2 is getting a new anti-cheater policy to stop you feeling bummed out and help the in-game economy

  You’ve told us that cheaters and exploiters ruin the experience that it feels unfair when someone games the Super Credit system while you’re out there earning yours the hard way,

  I don’t know of anyone who is complaining about this. Super Credits are the premium currency used to unlock content passes, that can also be found in small amounts in-game. They have zero impact on other players whatsoever. You also can’t tell how many Super Credits another player has. At most players who have farmed or bought more SCs have more weapon/armor options.

  It’s also important to note that if anyone picks up the credits in your lobby, everyone in the lobby gets them. One player having SCs means nothing to anyone else… Except for the owning company who I’m sure would much rather people pay for the currency than farm in game.

    Yeah I couldn’t give a single shit if someone else is “cheating” somehow. Arrowhead, on the other hand, probably does, as it affects their bottom line.

    Yeah, I knew there were exploits all along and never cared. Just had fun getting them by playing or occasionally farming by clearing maps on higher drop worlds with optimal drop ratios.

    Apparently there was a recent exploit that put all prior exploits to shame, but hopefully identifying whe did the ridiculous one didn’t take much of their time because while it is good PR to squash cheaters in general, super credit exploits isn’t one of my priorities for fixes.
