Worth noting that this is from an ama thread on reddit. From the unfiltered sub ๐Ÿ‘€

Not alot of replies at this moment, but I think it's good to hear that arrowhead's working on more than just warbonds though. I am a little disappointed that weapon customization's a low priority, feel like they could drip feed some of that and just add little attachments here and there.

My problem with the weapon customisation is that it feels half-assed. It feels like it's at the level I'd see in an Early Access game that plans to expand before full release. Problem is that this is a fully released game with a huge budget: how long are we going to have to wait for any system they release to be finished?

And to be clear I do like that they're making big updates. So many things they do are actually nice (though not all), but it feels like they're then forgotten about for months when they could use just a bit more work and tuning.

Unfortunate... In the fleeting few replies he's made, they've all boiled down to "only hardcore players want [thing everyone wants], we don't have enough people because they're all working on warbonds".

I've been slowly losing faith in AH over time but nothing has changed for the better. They only respond to major, obvious issues with the game or their development process when there is mass community outrage, and even then, only do the bare minimum to fix it to then continue pumping out new paid content. The AMA has definitely not regained any of my respect nor made me more confident in the future of the game, and that makes me sad.

He's made some more replies now.

I agree that only responding to major issues isn't the best strategy when there's a ton of smaller issues piling up. Like, for example, vaulting has been broken for how long now? I absolutely hate using the auto-vault, but it's the only option when the alternative is...not vaulting when I really need to.

Maybe helldivers 2 will just always be a flawed game and they should take a few years to rebuild on a new engine. I think that would solve most problems honestly ๐Ÿ˜„
