Helldivers 2is a title that took the industry by storm, emerging asone of the most acclaimed live-service titlesto be released recently. The title offers many challenges to players seeking to establish democracy with their fellow co-op teammates on far-off planets of the entire galaxy.

The planetary hazards in Helldivers 2 are excellent but also incredibly unfair sometimes.

While the title has seen a lot of praise, like every other title, some elements are causing players dissatisfaction, too. A Helldiver highlighted one such element on Reddit; more than 13 thousand players seem to agree with them.

Helldivers 2 Players Find Fire Tornadoes Obnoxious

As stated earlier, the post was shared on the game’s subreddit by a player who was visibly dissatisfied about the planetary hazard and the instant death caused by fire in the game’s meta. While the players didn’t choose to justify why they thought so, the post took off on the subreddit, and the players seemed to agree almost instantly.

This was the post shared on the subreddit:

Surprisingly, the players anticipated a sea of downvotes coming towards them after complaining about the game. To their surprise, the post was met with over two thousand comments and over 13 thousand upvotes, which are ridiculous numbers for a Reddit post.

The top comment on the post highlighted how the problem stated in the author’s post was even more prevalent on Menkent, an imaginary planet that is part of the game’s world:

Another player stated that the fire tornadoes targeted the player’s team, not the AI-controlled enemy. This is flawed because the title is a PvE one, meaning that an accidental advantage given to AI-controller enemies is always possible.

It makes sense that many players have problems with how broken the game’s fire damage is, coupled with the fire tornado planetary hazard, as there is simply no way to counter their wrath. But, given how prompt the game’s team is, this shouldn’t be lengthy.

The fire damage in Helldivers 2 is broken and needs to be fixed.

Potential Fixes for the Fiery Problem in Helldivers 2 Will Hopefully Come Soon

The solution to fix the disparity between the damage inflicted by the Fire Tornado on the players’ team and the enemies is to ensure that both are equally susceptible to the damage. For example, the fire tornado currently burns enemies, but its trail does not damage them.

On the other hand, the fire damage in the game is broken to the extent that players are not even able to use inventory items such as the stim, meaning that they cannot evade their inevitable demise. This is incredibly frustrating for the players.

While the call for leveling the battlefield isn’t likely to go in vain, there is still no update from the studio or the game’s director, whorecently shut down a fan when they politely asked the former to fix the game’s matchmaking.
