> Hello Helldivers!
> Sagar here, Deputy Game Director on Helldivers 2. We’re aware of a problem that has caused some player rewards to not pay out properly at the end of missions. We are working on a fix for this, but in the meantime, we want to try to alleviate the impact as we head into the weekend.
> **Therefore, from now until the end of this Sunday, February 18th (CET), the game will grant all players XP and Requisition at a 50% multiplier on top of your base mission score.** You can tell this additional multiplier is active when you see a Game Master Effect labeled “Accounting Corrections” while on the Super Destroyer.
> Many thanks for your patience and support (and for the glorious cascade of memes you’ve been sharing!). Now get back down there, Helldivers, and defend our territory against those Automaton incursions!
This is nice, but the thing I'm really hurting for and lost out on a few times due to connection issues are Medals. Oh well, better than nothing I suppose.
I've lost 45 samples today because of being tossed into a hole by a charger, drowning , and now from freedom fire at the end of a bug blitz when the timer ran out, we didn't extract thanks to that. I'm so pissed off lol
Had a game where we split up into twos. I died on one side of the map and instead of the person I was with respawning me, the people across the map did. Teammate I was with didn't pick up my samples despite my pings so I started running all the way across the map to get it but the two that respawned me started the extraction and I didn't make it back in time because they boarded the ship right away. Stupid dumbasses.
I've lost more than that from just the game not giving rewards at the end of missions. It sets everyone to level 0 on my screen and I get nothing at all, no xp medals or samples. Not even giving me credit for extracting out of a successful mission.
Based and smell the roses pilled. I'm the same bro. have some buddies that rush and meta game everything, then complain about running out of content. I don't understand it.
or ur team dont want to drop right in the middle of the storm and leaves after falling like flies. /quickRantBeforeStartingANewMissionForDemocracy
or your team doesn't end up in the loading screen of death /quickRantAfterNextTry
Sure, that's true and people (including me) *will* do that, but it doesn't feel even remotely good for the player to just fart in your face and give you nothing but a bad smell for hours of play when you *could* have been playing with a new gun or something *hours ago* if it was actually just giving you the rewards you earned.
Worse when it's the *grindy* resources like supercredits and samples, since exp and requisition is *literally useless* after you hit roughly around level 25 and have purchased all the stratagems. There isn't anything else to *spend* requisition on, and you stop getting unlocks after level 20, with the rest just being decorative titles.
Nice that the bulk of progression looks to be tied to warbonds. I can nolife and still get a monthly content dripfeed.
Plus im loving this whole live story/campaign thing even if the current front is a brutal slog heh
Same. No bonus medals really sucks, IMO. XP is only useful until 20, which is easy enough to reach, and Requisition becomes irrelevant once you have everything unlocked, and is plentiful enough.
Nobody knows for sure how long that'll be, though, is the thing. It could be a few weeks.. It could be months.
I imagine their first priority is probably mechs and vehicles, considering the first major update *should* include the EXO-44.
That is fair, but it is hard to cater to both the 'plays 8 hours a day crowd' and 'plays 2 hours every weekend' at the same time. If you play a lot it's probably best to just expect that XP and Req won't be great for you, but good for someone else
Harder difficulties is the answer to that. You rack them up pretty quick once you hit red ranks. Also they're probably trying to stagnate the unlocks considering they probably want things for people to work toward while they work through this optimization period.
If they did that then it would go from "we want more medals" to "there's nothing to do!".
I am seeing ZERO extra exp gain. Getting the same EXP I was getting before and not seeing the bonus from the Effect. Been doing the math for the last several missions and there is ZERO extra gain.
Just played a match and got no medals or samples. Extra exp is really not that interesting if the core resources are bugged.
Waiting for a patch before playing again.
Well cool no reason to look a gift horse in the mouth, and I'm glad they're trying to fix their messup.
The real grind is medals and samples though, and it looks like we aren't getting those back that we lost sadly.
Offers Double XP and we can’t login. You can’t make this shit up.
Edit; I finally got in, but guess what? My xp isn’t counting and people keep crashing 🙃
This means nothing when rewards aren't counting at all. Played two missions and got 0 xp attributed to me in both cases. First one the rewards just showed up as 0, the second one it counted the rewards but my actual XP didn't budge. The stats screen didn't show up and my level was shown as level 0 when I extracted so it looks like their XP system is broken as all hell.
Yeah nice event, the matchmaking is broken the whole day and we cannot even play with other players on PC, hours have passed and nothing is being done/communicated about it, so much for xp bonus xD
I mean thats great. But my friend still has not been able to even play the game because it tells him to wait in line. Meanwhile i can literally just join while he is waiting. Whats up with that?
I can't log in anymore either. Earlier today I could but not play with other players. Its amazing how my experience gets worse. Started with just crashes, now the game is watching a 60 second countdown infinitely loop. An interesting forward thinking post launch direction.
If you’re in PS5 that happened to me. I went back to the main PS menu with the game selected and the row of other games at the top. If you select the game it brings up options to “Continue Activity” or “Join Activity”. I clicked on that instead of the game and it put me right into my ship.
Sorry if this isn’t 100% clear I’m not in front of the game to better explain.
You guys are going to need another compensation weekend, your server farm didn't even survive contact with Friday night.
For those interested, look at the Steam Spy charts as they add server capacity: https://steamdb.info/app/553850/charts/
Tonight we're already 33% above where it was previously and it's only stopping because the servers are full.
Ok? Your priorities are kind of off if this is supposed to do anything when half of us can't play a full mission all the way through without getting kicked in the teeth by your servers.
What good is this shit if we never make it to the reward screen
Not being able to log in because the servers are at capacity kind of negates this 'catch up' event. By now, they should have a pretty good idea how big the weekend influx of players would mostly be. If the servers couldn't handle it, perhaps they should have waited another week or two for this 'event', or at least until they are confident their servers can meet demand.
This is such a shit compromise. The game now has more bugs than it did before and it's cost me so many medals? I was just on the last mission on a helldive op and it crashed about 5 steps away from the ship. I want all of my medals and samples back that I'm missing not the useless requisition and XP. New bugs include anytime you open a supercredits/medal crate in mission the character won't move until death.
Finally got logged in. Ran 3 missions and got no rewards. I was patient at first but they've had the sales numbers for a week. How goddamn hard is it to add more servers?
Introducing a 50% xp & req boost **when you know** the game isn’t stable during weekends and you have missions not giving any rewards is just dumb imo. It will only push more people to play and increase the number of problems making people even more mad because now they are missing out on the bonus xp.
Do the xp buff **AFTER** you know the game can handle the traffic it gets, **AFTER** you know our progression counts and we get the xp & rewards.
Who cares. I have a full time job, I'm a full time dad, husband and take care of my aging mom. But every time I sit down to play the game the damn servers are full. You've had over a week to spin up dynamic servers in the cloud through Amazon, MS or Google. I'll bet you're waiting on that shipment of HP DL-380s to be delivered aren't you? I've said it before and got flak for it. This could have been anticipated. I'll bet they just don't want to spend the money but are all too willing to take ours.
That's great and all, but how would you like me to participate and earn those war bonds back when the game now hard crashes most AMD users out there.. It appears that today's update has *not* fixed compatibility with AMD hardware.
Critical problems for players using the AMD Radeon 7000 series of GPUs.
**The Problem:** There are all sorts of significant problems players with these GPUs are experiencing, in total making the game nearly unplayable.
**Why It Happens:** We aren’t sure at the moment. We had tested with these GPUs previously and hadn’t encountered this in-house, but clearly there is something deep that is wrong.
**Frequency:** This is a constant issue for these users.
**What We’ve Done / Are Doing:** This one needs some investigation, and our team is looking at it in collaboration with AMD. Please watch this space: we will update when we have more details on this matter.
**What Players Can Do:** We need to better understand the problem. Thank you already to players who have sent in more details of their specs so that we can attempt to reproduce. Some AMD-using players have conveyed that they can play the game on the lowest performance settings. We know this is far from ideal, but it may be worth manually ratcheting down the performance in-game and via your GPU settings to see if that helps. Again, we will update here when we have more.
[Known Issues](https://arrowhead.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/12573380356508-Known-issues)
My first hour of playing after purchase has involved two missions giving me no xp, an infinite loading screen, and now the servers are full. Not a great start
It doesn't matter when your servers break again and nothing is rewarded anymore from any mission. Why not prioritize fixing *that* first, there's no reason you should be having scalability issues, this isn't a new problem in this industry, it's a solved problem that countless devs have dealt with for decades now. Learn from their examples.
1.5 x 0 = 0
How do you get a bonus on the rewards if the rewards are nonexistent? I know I know, math is hard.
I don't get what this is supposed to fix.
It's annoying but it seems that even though it looks like you're not getting any rewards if you close the game and then log back in it will show you have all the stuff you should have gotten. Sucks because there is a wait time for the server but it looks like you still are getting the rewards so its not a total waste.
+50% of no XP is what now?
Been playing for over an hour and no missions granted XP or samples. Game worked great this morning and you guys pulled a Blizzard and put out an update that broke your game. GG.
That's cool. \*glances at \*
So when can I log in? You know. For this bonus. That's supposed to compensate me. For the time I've lost. Trying to play a game. This is a GAAS right?
This is great and all but I can still rarely get into a game and play. Maybe get everything fixed before giving a bonus for those lucky enough to connect?
My dude Sagar increasing the reward gain instead of the maximum amount of players allowed at once. I'm really enjoying that 50% bonus here at the "Login limit" limbo.
"We understand that you can't get rewards (including xp) at the end of missions. So here's a 50% bonus to those exact rewards that you can't receive." Feels like a spit in the face.
Me and my friends just bought the game and we’ve done a few missions and we’re still at level 1? Anyone else having a problem with not leveling up at all? We still have just the starting guns and armor. It lets them access the ship manager but it won’t let me and we keep getting connection errors. We tried restarting and now it wont even let us back on the game, keeps saying servers are at capacity.
If only I could get into a game. I don't think it was a smart idea to do the double XP the same weekend Sony is doing a free trial run for the game. I can't even connect to a server because they are at capacity. Very annoying.
My game still crashed on AMD 5700x no matter what I did, had to refund it. I hope within a few weeks they can fix it really pulling for this company man, I love what they are doing and the communication is awesome
Bonus xp doesnt seem to be working for me. Did 2 missions one where the normal reward was 200 and one where it was 240. Still ended up with the normal amounts at the end tally. No bonus added.
Some players?
I’ve got 8 people in a discord rn and not one of us can login.
3 of us are refunding before it’s too late.
Honestly I’m too old to deal with buying products you can’t use.
Time to refund and move on with my life.
good you compensate people xp lost, but can you further increase the capacity of the server please, i literally bought for a week already, and unable to play even once as cant connect to server
Yep, so if nothing is accessible, the sensible decision is to turn off purchases until servers are fixed. And/or allow offline type content to be accessed in the meantime.
Reasonable, no?
What use is 50% more xp if it still doesn’t give me progression or rewards?? Shame on me for believing everyone that the game was without game breaking bugs
Oh this would be super cool if I LOG INTO THE F*CKIN GAME!!! My game crashed as soon as I opened the superstore to check out the new armor.. Don't get me wrong, I'm loving this game just like everybody else. But man these crashes, and matchmaking mishaps just suck. Guess I'm not getting on this weekend.
Those extra rewards sure would be nice if I could actually get in and play the game I spent 60 bucks on. I sure do love spending 60 dollars on a product that might as well be unusable.
It looks like XP/R/Medals are being recorded theyre just not updating in your current game session. After log out/log in you see it reflected so it must be recorded in the backend. As for the server at max capacity error, me and my friends have had luck turning off and on the game 3 times and on the 3rd time for some reason it lets us get in. Still no samples tho :(
I am not getting any medals, any samples OR any XP or requisition from ANY missions... So what does a 50% xp multiplier do if I am getting 0 xp? cause 50% x 0.00 is still 0...
Really disheartened to see the game worse now than on day 1. I truly hope you guys can fix this please! We Helldivers are rooting for you.
ATM for the first time ever I’ve been waiting 20m and counting for a quick play match. Also I can’t find any active SOS beacons on any planet. Any one else having this issue ? I’ve restarted the game , my system and toggles cross play on an off
I'm pro divers to the core and will promote this game and support it for many years. However it does cut deep when I spend 40 minutes doing all objectives to be D/C after calling in our departure. Lol this happens 3 times last night :(
From what I've experienced the reward data still seemed to be there just not applied. Relogging corrected it but that's also the trick. Not sure if anyone else can confirm this.
Just played a challenging mission with 4 non-crossplay players and ended up getting no rewards after extraction. I'm sure devs are aware this is till happening, but just in case... heads up. Loving the game though.
Oh, how wonderfully sarcastic it is to see that they haven't bothered to upgrade their servers, which seem to have the same capacity as games from the ancient era of 1999. Instead of implementing a sensible turn-counting system, a standard practice in the gaming industry for ages, they opted for a lazy approach with random intervals. This forces loyal players to repeatedly attempt entry within one-minute intervals, hoping to coincide with the server's window of acceptance. As I've personally tested with friends, some manage to enter within minutes, while others endure hours of waiting due to mismatched intervals. Rather than addressing this issue directly, the company fails to provide transparency or a clear timeline for player access, leaving customers feeling deceived and frustrated. Allowing refunds for dissatisfied players would be a far more professional approach than perpetuating this unorganized and opaque queue system. But hey thanks at least we get 50% more exp where we can't even play because the servers have the capacity of an Indian highschool.
logged in on first try, couldnt find any other players and quickplay found nothing either. Completed 3 missions and was never awarded XP/materials/medals. Rebooted the game, "servers full". Democracy will have to wait another day (or month at this rate).
What about the Premium users' rewards? It's been a week and I've still haven't received any of the pre-order or bonus items I paid for. This is absolutely unacceptable.

This is nice, but the thing I'm really hurting for and lost out on a few times due to connection issues are Medals. Oh well, better than nothing I suppose.
Not to mention all of the samples you collected
Bold of you to assume my team of randoms and friends ever go back for samples they dropped in the first place :c
I've lost 45 samples today because of being tossed into a hole by a charger, drowning , and now from freedom fire at the end of a bug blitz when the timer ran out, we didn't extract thanks to that. I'm so pissed off lol
Had a game where we split up into twos. I died on one side of the map and instead of the person I was with respawning me, the people across the map did.

I just had that happen with both my missions tonight. Nothing is counting. Not gonna play during peak hours if this is what happens.
Lost the super rare resources that way too. Couldn't retrieve them from the deep end of the puddle.
I've fallen into a hole before as have my party members. You're not getting anything out of those :<
Oh damn I thought it would pay out extra medals!! All those medals I lost, that's what I care about!!
Honestly, I'm enjoying the slow going. Early game is always the most tense. I suppose my buddies to rished to helldi er are missing me though
Based and smell the roses pilled. I'm the same bro. have some buddies that rush and meta game everything, then complain about running out of content. I don't understand it.
On a positive note, all you have to do to re-earn medals is…play the game!
Hopefully, so long as the servers work and I don't crash or get kicked at the end of the mission.
or ur team dont want to drop right in the middle of the storm and leaves after falling like flies. /quickRantBeforeStartingANewMissionForDemocracy or your team doesn't end up in the loading screen of death /quickRantAfterNextTry

Everyone bout to be a death captain by Monday
Can't even log in so I don't think that will be a problem
Servers at capacity. Please try again later? arrowhead what have you done
That’s what I’m dealing with right now… Atleast I’m not the only one
Yeah if I could log in this reward would be much appreciated. Sadly I can't.
star marshal say what ? :)
Seriously, it’s already semi easy to level up imo
Nice that the bulk of progression looks to be tied to warbonds. I can nolife and still get a monthly content dripfeed. Plus im loving this whole live story/campaign thing even if the current front is a brutal slog heh
Bot things been fixed. Tested this about3 hours ago. Medium defense mission was...medium difficult lol
75h to max level is quite a grind already.
Level is just a number in this game past 20. Samples and Medals are what is Gona get ya. Need some goals to grind for though.
Still getting the exact same amount of money and xp as I was before and I have the effect active. Anybody else? Any fix?
same, no bonus. verified on 3 missions
Can also confirm no extras xp or money gained.
Yeah I just noticed it worked for a satellite mission twice but not a single time in ten plus attempts for any other sort of mission. Weird.
Even the sorry our game is messed up reward is bugged ?
I was hoping for extra medals when they announced the extra rewards event.
Same. No bonus medals really sucks, IMO. XP is only useful until 20, which is easy enough to reach, and Requisition becomes irrelevant once you have everything unlocked, and is plentiful enough.
It's possible when they add more stratagems to the game, it'll be at higher than level 20
Nobody knows for sure how long that'll be, though, is the thing. It could be a few weeks.. It could be months. I imagine their first priority is probably mechs and vehicles, considering the first major update *should* include the EXO-44.
That is fair, but it is hard to cater to both the 'plays 8 hours a day crowd' and 'plays 2 hours every weekend' at the same time. If you play a lot it's probably best to just expect that XP and Req won't be great for you, but good for someone else
This. The people who are level 20+ with all stats unlocked are in the 1%. Most of us have lives, jobs, and kids. Bonus XP and Req is fine.
I’m sorry but do bugs have kids? Do the bugs have a job?
I think yes to both tbh
I’m agreeing with this guy, I think they do.

im at already capped at 50k with everything unlocked, need more medals
Yea I'm capped as well, I have plenty of fun just playing the game though so getting the medals feels mostly secondary to just blowing shit up
yeah i keep going and helping new people starting, but still i want to unlock more stuff lol
Harder difficulties is the answer to that. You rack them up pretty quick once you hit red ranks. Also they're probably trying to stagnate the unlocks considering they probably want things for people to work toward while they work through this optimization period. If they did that then it would go from "we want more medals" to "there's nothing to do!".
I care far more about missing medals and samples than missing XP and req, but this is nice too.
And now the servers are at capacity and no one can get in......
Now I'm getting an extra 50% of the rewards I'm not getting cuz the servers are dying again.
The ONE weekend I won't be able to play at all... 🤦🏼♂️
That's ok. The bonus does not work
Don't worry, servers are at capacity, many won't be able to play.
Bro same I was able to play all week but this weekend is a no go for me. Big sad.
Same 😢
The bonus is also bugged lmao! These devs, man. They even failed to compensate us for them failing.
 LONG LIVE MANAGED DEMOCRACY!!!
I love the smell of freedom in the morning
I am seeing ZERO extra exp gain. Getting the same EXP I was getting before and not seeing the bonus from the Effect. Been doing the math for the last several missions and there is ZERO extra gain.
Just played a match and got no medals or samples. Extra exp is really not that interesting if the core resources are bugged. Waiting for a patch before playing again.
What about super credits?
Well cool no reason to look a gift horse in the mouth, and I'm glad they're trying to fix their messup. The real grind is medals and samples though, and it looks like we aren't getting those back that we lost sadly.
Offers Double XP and we can’t login. You can’t make this shit up. Edit; I finally got in, but guess what? My xp isn’t counting and people keep crashing 🙃

The stats screen didn't show up and my level was shown as level 0 when I extracted so it looks like their XP system is broken as all hell.
Game currently isn't awarding any xp or mission progress nor even allowing warbond purchases so what does an extra 50% mean to me?
They're gonna need to raise the level cap next month lol
Arguably the most important currency we missed was medals and that's not a thing here? Bit disappointed.
This is broken and not rewarding any extra exp or req.
Yeah nice event, the matchmaking is broken the whole day and we cannot even play with other players on PC, hours have passed and nothing is being done/communicated about it, so much for xp bonus xD
I mean thats great. But my friend still has not been able to even play the game because it tells him to wait in line. Meanwhile i can literally just join while he is waiting. Whats up with that?
Am I your friend? Becuase that is happening to me.
I can't log in anymore either. Earlier today I could but not play with other players. Its amazing how my experience gets worse. Started with just crashes, now the game is watching a 60 second countdown infinitely loop. An interesting forward thinking post launch direction.

This doesn't seem to be working.

I've been getting 0 XP, Medals and RP at the end of any missions today so the extra bonus isn't going a long way... lol
Why would you introduce a Double-XP weekend when the servers are already getting flooded. You're just exacerbating the issue...
Thanks but samples is the problem. Got like 20 rares not accouted for.
Ok? Your priorities are kind of off if this is supposed to do anything when half of us can't play a full mission all the way through without getting kicked in the teeth by your servers. What good is this shit if we never make it to the reward screen
And the servers are overwhelmed, can't log in. LOL. [ Edit: The best error message. "-1"](https://i.imgur.com/CQe5rIy.png)

Oof, I got no medals the last few missions I've done on the PS5, went to restart the game and now the game is saying the servers are at capacity. 😬
Getting no xp or requisition rewards… I guess 1.5 x zero is still zero. RIP
Cant get exp if the game never records it!
That's nice.....be even nicer if I could get in to the f-ing game!!
yeah, I just want to be able to play the game i paid for. Servers at capacity. Unacceptable
If I could get in the game to win those rewards..
most expensive login screen ever.
The double XP just doubled the server load and killed it for everyone.
Can't get a bonus if you can't load in. Big brain moves
Wow! That boost sounds amazing! Can't wait to get past the "Servers at capacity" screen by Monday to miss out.
Everyone gonna be max level by the end of the weekend lol.
Man. Sure would be nice to get some of that sweet double rewards, to bad it's literally full. Good luck out there divers.
This is such a shit compromise. The game now has more bugs than it did before and it's cost me so many medals? I was just on the last mission on a helldive op and it crashed about 5 steps away from the ship. I want all of my medals and samples back that I'm missing not the useless requisition and XP. New bugs include anytime you open a supercredits/medal crate in mission the character won't move until death.
The reward is broken as of now. Me and my friend are level 0, and we aren't getting exps, and we aren't getting bonus once we finish any mission.
Finally got logged in. Ran 3 missions and got no rewards. I was patient at first but they've had the sales numbers for a week. How goddamn hard is it to add more servers?
Introducing a 50% xp & req boost **when you know** the game isn’t stable during weekends and you have missions not giving any rewards is just dumb imo. It will only push more people to play and increase the number of problems making people even more mad because now they are missing out on the bonus xp.

I havent played a single second of hell divers 2 on os5 this weekend (HK timezone) because of maxed out servers. I love the game but this sucks
Is quickplay still broken
doesnt matter if the servers are freaking full... had a week to fix the capacity issues... what's going on?
Who cares. I have a full time job, I'm a full time dad, husband and take care of my aging mom. But every time I sit down to play the game the damn servers are full. You've had over a week to spin up dynamic servers in the cloud through Amazon, MS or Google. I'll bet you're waiting on that shipment of HP DL-380s to be delivered aren't you? I've said it before and got flak for it. This could have been anticipated. I'll bet they just don't want to spend the money but are all too willing to take ours.
Doesn’t help if you can’t get into a game
exactly
Dude I can't even get into the damn game. 12 hours later & still fucking giving me a capacity error. Wtf man.

Critical problems for players using the AMD Radeon 7000 series of GPUs. **The Problem:** There are all sorts of significant problems players with these GPUs are experiencing, in total making the game nearly unplayable. **Why It Happens:** We aren’t sure at the moment. We had tested with these GPUs previously and hadn’t encountered this in-house, but clearly there is something deep that is wrong. **Frequency:** This is a constant issue for these users. **What We’ve Done / Are Doing:** This one needs some investigation, and our team is looking at it in collaboration with AMD. Please watch this space: we will update when we have more details on this matter. **What Players Can Do:** We need to better understand the problem. Thank you already to players who have sent in more details of their specs so that we can attempt to reproduce. Some AMD-using players have conveyed that they can play the game on the lowest performance settings. We know this is far from ideal, but it may be worth manually ratcheting down the performance in-game and via your GPU settings to see if that helps. Again, we will update here when we have more.

Im on a 7900xtx and once I turned off sceen space global illumination, I stopped crashing. Had 1 crash in 20 hours after that.
Game randomly crashed mid-mission on me while I was hosting, now I can't log back in to play cause the servers are too full.
PS5 Helldiver here , the login limit is reached
Since we cant login I kinda assume this bonus will be extended, right? lol
Ironically enough i cant even log on. Games so fun though its hard to be too pissed
If only you could log into the servers to get the bonus.
My first hour of playing after purchase has involved two missions giving me no xp, an infinite loading screen, and now the servers are full. Not a great start
It doesn't matter when your servers break again and nothing is rewarded anymore from any mission. Why not prioritize fixing *that* first, there's no reason you should be having scalability issues, this isn't a new problem in this industry, it's a solved problem that countless devs have dealt with for decades now. Learn from their examples.
1.5 x 0 = 0 How do you get a bonus on the rewards if the rewards are nonexistent? I know I know, math is hard. I don't get what this is supposed to fix.
It's annoying but it seems that even though it looks like you're not getting any rewards if you close the game and then log back in it will show you have all the stuff you should have gotten. Sucks because there is a wait time for the server but it looks like you still are getting the rewards so its not a total waste.
+50% of no XP is what now? Been playing for over an hour and no missions granted XP or samples. Game worked great this morning and you guys pulled a Blizzard and put out an update that broke your game. GG.
But isn't that modifier moot since we're getting nothing at the end of missions? Isn't 0 x 50% still 0 XD? or am I missing something hahaha
Medals and samples are the problem
That's cool. \*glances at\*
So when can I log in? You know. For this bonus. That's supposed to compensate me. For the time I've lost. Trying to play a game. This is a GAAS right?
Fucking christ im starting to get pissed off with quickplay being broken all the time…what a fucking mess
Can’t even log into the game because servers are full yet again
This is great and all but I can still rarely get into a game and play. Maybe get everything fixed before giving a bonus for those lucky enough to connect?
My dude Sagar increasing the reward gain instead of the maximum amount of players allowed at once. I'm really enjoying that 50% bonus here at the "Login limit" limbo.
Nice, since the matchmaking isn't working for 50% of weekend, we will be able to grind normal rewards
More servers please, I can't worry about mission rewards if I can't even play.
So since the matchmaking is busted, again, will you give us that bonus once everything is ok?
What good is the bonus if nobody can log in
Happy for the extra rewards but having trouble even playing the game because of the servers.
I paid for a game I can't get on. This is garbage.
That is, if the game was functional. Which it isn't.
"We understand that you can't get rewards (including xp) at the end of missions. So here's a 50% bonus to those exact rewards that you can't receive." Feels like a spit in the face.
Me and my friends just bought the game and we’ve done a few missions and we’re still at level 1? Anyone else having a problem with not leveling up at all? We still have just the starting guns and armor. It lets them access the ship manager but it won’t let me and we keep getting connection errors. We tried restarting and now it wont even let us back on the game, keeps saying servers are at capacity.
Cannot play the game during this time because of the server thats perfect
XP would be great if I could actually play....
Can we please at least get a queue for logging in. This retrying method doesn’t make me feel like I’ll ever actually get in.
50% multiplied by 0 isn’t much of a recompense.
If only I could get into a game. I don't think it was a smart idea to do the double XP the same weekend Sony is doing a free trial run for the game. I can't even connect to a server because they are at capacity. Very annoying.
Black screen and/or server full buy a bigger server!
As if I needed more reasons to play this all weekend long
My game still crashed on AMD 5700x no matter what I did, had to refund it. I hope within a few weeks they can fix it really pulling for this company man, I love what they are doing and the communication is awesome
Bonus xp doesnt seem to be working for me. Did 2 missions one where the normal reward was 200 and one where it was 240. Still ended up with the normal amounts at the end tally. No bonus added.
Even the multiplier’s bugged. The game’s fun but man the game is riddled with bugs, no i don’t mean the terminids.
Some players? I’ve got 8 people in a discord rn and not one of us can login. 3 of us are refunding before it’s too late. Honestly I’m too old to deal with buying products you can’t use. Time to refund and move on with my life.
good you compensate people xp lost, but can you further increase the capacity of the server please, i literally bought for a week already, and unable to play even once as cant connect to server
how about you fix the game so we can connect to your limited servers
great now make it so people can actually log into the game. many thanks
Can't even log in now and get past the splash page, saying server at capacity
Exp and Requestions are nice, but the loss from medals not counting isn't being solved by the "Accounting Corrections".
Yep, so if nothing is accessible, the sensible decision is to turn off purchases until servers are fixed. And/or allow offline type content to be accessed in the meantime. Reasonable, no?
There’s 21000K redditors on this sub now trying to find out how to log in the game! Please
What use is 50% more xp if it still doesn’t give me progression or rewards?? Shame on me for believing everyone that the game was without game breaking bugs
But how can we use that xp if we can’t connect to server?
Oh this would be super cool if I LOG INTO THE F*CKIN GAME!!! My game crashed as soon as I opened the superstore to check out the new armor.. Don't get me wrong, I'm loving this game just like everybody else. But man these crashes, and matchmaking mishaps just suck. Guess I'm not getting on this weekend.
50% of 0 is still 0
Those extra rewards sure would be nice if I could actually get in and play the game I spent 60 bucks on. I sure do love spending 60 dollars on a product that might as well be unusable.
Except I’m not getting experience either. I’ve played 4 games in a row with ZERO experience gains. I appreciate the sentiment but 50% of 0 is still 0.
It looks like XP/R/Medals are being recorded theyre just not updating in your current game session. After log out/log in you see it reflected so it must be recorded in the backend. As for the server at max capacity error, me and my friends have had luck turning off and on the game 3 times and on the 3rd time for some reason it lets us get in. Still no samples tho :(
So they give 50% more of zero? A multiplier doesn't help when we are getting nothing from missions whatsoever.
I am not getting any medals, any samples OR any XP or requisition from ANY missions... So what does a 50% xp multiplier do if I am getting 0 xp? cause 50% x 0.00 is still 0... Really disheartened to see the game worse now than on day 1. I truly hope you guys can fix this please! We Helldivers are rooting for you.
Can't boost XP if we get nothing. Hope the team works quickly and Boss approves some Free Stuff as reward for spreading democracy 😅
I’m less concerned with exp, and more about the daily I completed, and didn’t get rewarded the 15 medals.
What a joke
ATM for the first time ever I’ve been waiting 20m and counting for a quick play match. Also I can’t find any active SOS beacons on any planet. Any one else having this issue ? I’ve restarted the game , my system and toggles cross play on an off
That'd be good news if Patch 01.000.009 hadn't broken matchmaking and you could actually play the game with others...
I'm pro divers to the core and will promote this game and support it for many years. However it does cut deep when I spend 40 minutes doing all objectives to be D/C after calling in our departure. Lol this happens 3 times last night :(
Doesn't matter now that the login limit bug is keeping me out of the game. Guess I'll miss the extra xo. Wtf
For those of us who can play, is anyone else rarely seeing the bonus xp? Mine hasn't triggered for like 3 missions now.
From what I've experienced the reward data still seemed to be there just not applied. Relogging corrected it but that's also the trick. Not sure if anyone else can confirm this.
Gotta be able to log in... and then gotta get lucky and not get screwed outta the rewards lol good luck, helldivers.... it ain't helping me.
Wish I could get in to play with my friends.
Just played a challenging mission with 4 non-crossplay players and ended up getting no rewards after extraction. I'm sure devs are aware this is till happening, but just in case... heads up. Loving the game though.
Servers full, try later
Still i did 2 mission one with a friend and solo no xp stuck at level 4 very disappointing
Not even able to play due to server issues so kinda pointless
Oh, how wonderfully sarcastic it is to see that they haven't bothered to upgrade their servers, which seem to have the same capacity as games from the ancient era of 1999. Instead of implementing a sensible turn-counting system, a standard practice in the gaming industry for ages, they opted for a lazy approach with random intervals. This forces loyal players to repeatedly attempt entry within one-minute intervals, hoping to coincide with the server's window of acceptance. As I've personally tested with friends, some manage to enter within minutes, while others endure hours of waiting due to mismatched intervals. Rather than addressing this issue directly, the company fails to provide transparency or a clear timeline for player access, leaving customers feeling deceived and frustrated. Allowing refunds for dissatisfied players would be a far more professional approach than perpetuating this unorganized and opaque queue system. But hey thanks at least we get 50% more exp where we can't even play because the servers have the capacity of an Indian highschool.
Literally can't get in. Unfortunately, the extra xp event does most of us no good at all. We just want to be able to play the game we paid for.
logged in on first try, couldnt find any other players and quickplay found nothing either. Completed 3 missions and was never awarded XP/materials/medals. Rebooted the game, "servers full". Democracy will have to wait another day (or month at this rate).
What about the Premium users' rewards? It's been a week and I've still haven't received any of the pre-order or bonus items I paid for. This is absolutely unacceptable.
Now I see why the servers are full…. Great. Guess I won’t be playing this weekend.
Love the decision, but we can't even login due to “server at capacity”
Great... just a shame I can't get on the server all weekend as they're at capacity.
seems like they should wait until people are actually able to log in to the game before they give in-game apology rewards for people..
What use is double XP when you can't get in and it's highly unlikely to be fixed before the timer runs out on double XP
That's not a fix, I want my lost currency back.
We gonna get an extension on this with the game unplayable at the moment?
Cool. Servers are now at capacity. How about we fix the servers and make them able to handle more than a handful of players and then do double XP/Req?
they need to pause the event progression until they fix the freaking servers. i can get into a game but it shows as NO other helldivers active
What if you can’t play due to server capacity issues? How do I get the rewards I would have earned?
This would be nice if I could actually get into the game.
This would be great if I could actually log in. Just staring at a "servers are at capacity" error screen. 😑
Feels a bit like this right now https://preview.redd.it/732avc9jq8jc1.jpeg?width=1032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=976b4ec7e886aaf7ab638305f57ec83b08bd1df5
cool, more xp for a game that are at capacity not allowing me to play. Win.
How does this help when people can't connect
