A recent update has introduced the option to link PlayStation Network (PSN) accounts in Helldivers 2, resolving a contentious issue that has been the subject of much debate within the gaming community. The update represents a significant shift in the requirement to link accounts, providing players with more flexibility.
Earlier this month, Sony Interactive Entertainment announced that PC players would need to connect their Steam and PSN accounts to continue playing Helldivers 2. This decision sparked backlash, particularly in regions where the PlayStation Network is not accessible. Following widespread criticism and concerns about player experience, Sony retracted their initial mandate. Now, with the latest update, players have the freedom to choose whether to link their accounts directly within the game settings.
While the addition of optional account linking is a significant step in the right direction, developers are continuing to address various technical issues within Helldivers 2. Some of the key challenges being tackled include the overallocation of XP, inconsistencies with Arc weapons, delays in dispensing Super Credits and Medals, and miscellaneous technical glitches. These fixes are designed to enhance gameplay stability, prevent crashes, and ensure a smoother overall experience for players.
The update acknowledges that work is ongoing to resolve specific problems, such as addressing issues with the assault rifle from the recent Polar Patriots Warbond release. Despite these persistent challenges, developers remain committed to improving the game's performance and accessibility.
