Arrowhead Warns Helldivers 2 Players Not to Harass Earth Defenders in Blue Armor
What can jealousy in a video game lead to? To a bizarre situation in which players kill each other. The developers of Helldivers 2 appeal to players to be considerate.
The Helldivers 2 community is certainly one of the most intriguing player groups among all currently active titles. United in a fictional war, players seriously approach the fight in the name of Super Earth.
Although sometimes they exaggerate, anyone who has played Helldivers 2 has certainly experienced a warm welcome from the community and considerable support during the fight against Terminids or Automatons. Despite the common goal, there are however exceptions of insubordination.
Is the blue armor irritating to players?
In early April, there was news about the cloak from Malevelon Creek. The players received it after a successful defense of the planet, which took place at the expense of fighting on the second front. At that time, enraged fans were throwing out or killing anyone who wore the "notorious" cloak from the games.
This time, a similar hatred is affecting players who wear the distinctive blue armor added to the pre-release version of the game. In the universe of Helldivers 2, this armor is closely tied to a successful marketing campaign of a company selling frozen yogurts. Is this the reason for the hate directed towards players who wear blue armor? Definitely not.
According to players, aggressive behavior is caused by jealousy, as the "yogurt" armor will never be available in the game due to the pre-order.
Developers from Arrowhead are appealing via X not to shoot at the frozen yogurt salesman, as they too are fighting for the freedom of Super Earth.
It has come to the attention of Super Earth High Command that official SUMY Corporation Frozen Yoghurt salesmen have been deliberately targeted while on the battlefield.
This man is your friend! He fights for your freedom, librrrrrty, and frosty treats!
Although the armor itself is purely a cosmetic element and only differs from the basic one in terms of painting, some of the players commenting on the post noticed that they had not heard about Helldivers 2 before the game's premiere, and now they have no chance of getting equipment in their favorite blue color.
