The line of Terminid opponents Rupture Strain in Helldivers 2 has become a serious, but not very fair challenge for many players. Fans have actively complained about the lack of balance.
Arrowhead Game Studios heard the complaints and took a radical step — disabling problematic enemies.
Community Manager Baskinator addressed the players on Discord (violates the requirements of the legislation of the Russian Federation):
«The recent patch, combined with other issues related to Rupture Strain balance, has resulted in them not functioning as we intended.
We are disabling Rupture Strain. Other units will not be affected. An improved version of Rupture Strain will be available again in 5 weeks»
