Helldivers 2 gets regularly compared to this game. It’s disappointing to see how much worse starship troopers turned out on launch. Helldivers 2 wasn’t perfect at launch either. However, the sequel had way more features that made it a much better game. Helldivers 2 has a playable menu system, a community based conquest system, procedurally generated maps for infinite replay, better bullet ballistics, crater physics, some vehicles, and air support.
What’s strange is the lack of reasons for starship troopers to have performed poorly. In terms of bugs, both games are evenly buggy. In terms of strengths, starship troopers has larger lobbies, more diverse levels, larger maps, and more heavy weapons than H2.
When considering all this information, it’s strange to see the game do poorly compared to helldivers. Voice your ideas on what went wrong. Additionally, voice your suggestions on what could change.
