    Side note: as a Megadeth fan, I’ve been waiting for an excuse to use this template forever.

      I don’t own a copy of Helldivers 2. I am just here to because peace sells…but who’s buying?

        What do you mean “I don’t play Helldivers”?

        Got nothin’ better to do.

        What do you mean “Have you seen my Steam library?”

        Why do you think I’m broke? Huh?

          "If there’s a Steam sale, I’ll be the first in line.
          I’m sure I’ll play next time."

        This site tracks some of the artwork over the years. I was always a sucker for the Rust in Peace cover.

    Context - 500kg explosion damage radius is being updated to match the visual.

    I like this buff.

    The visual definitely does not match the actual impact today, it’s all hat and no cattle so to speak.

    Plus, the economy of 500KG amount and Eagle reload mechanic do a decent job to balance it vs Orbital Precision Strike, Eagle Airstrike, and similar stratagem

    Change is good, whether it’s a nerf or buff. You gain a certain perspective and experience on the difference.

    I’m looking forward to relearning the 500kg blast limit, just like using the orbital precision strike.

      For sure. I’m hoping to be pleasantly surprised. When we had that Personal Order a few months ago to get a few hundred kills with the 500kg it was painful. Having swarms of bugs just casually strolling out of the explosion visual was frustrating.
