Don't buy our game if you're broke - Helldivers boss


The lead developer of the smash-hit online shooter says it's worth waiting for servers to be fixed.

Arrowhead Studios' online shooter has been a runaway success since it launched on 8 February, breaking player records for publisher Sony. In Helldivers 2, you're a member of a team of soldiers dropped on to an alien planet and tasked with surviving attacks from waves of giant, insect-like creatures. It's been an especially big hit with PC gamers, easily beating records set by previous PlayStation Studios titles such as God of War.
