It is once again very difficult to get into Helldivers 2, because the demand for mechs is overwhelming the servers.
After a long stretch of teasing, mechs have finally arrived in Helldivers 2, providing players the opportunity to stomp around the battlefield in heavily-armored style. Unfortunately, with that good news comes a bit of bad: The arrival of the heavy-duty war machines has brought with it a renewed round of server errors.
"We are aware of an issue with players not being able to get into the game," an Arrowhead developer said earlier today on the Helldivers Discord. "This happened when the Combat Walkers became available. People rushed to get it and it overwhelmed our backend. We are working to fix it as soon as we can. We want you to enjoy the Mech as soon as possible. Thanks for your patience!"
Arrowhead CEO Johan Pilestedt said the issue is "intermittent," and luck may still get you in the door: PC Gamer Helldiver-in-Chief Morgan Park is in the game at this very moment, and has been for some time now, because I guess he just gets to do that kind of thing on a Friday. I, however, have been stuck at a "failed to connect to server" message for the past 20 minutes.
At this point there's no indication as to when servers will be back to normal. "Service will be restored eventually," Pilestedt tweeted, "but for now I ask for patience."
