Helldivers II er fortsat en gigantisk succes på Steam, og spillet har nu har slået Grand Theft Auto V's rekord for antal samtidige spillere. Dets all-time peak er nu 409.367 spillere, hvilket er en god sjat mere end de 360.761, som GTA V i sin tid opnåede.
I takt med, at antallet af spillere stiger, har udvikleren midlertidigt begrænset kapaciteten til 450.000 spillere, imens de arbejder på at løse spillets serverproblemer. På spillets officielle Discord skriver Arrowhead, at de arbejder på højtryk for at løse de tekniske problemer, der har plaget spillet siden udgivelsen.
"Hello divers! Earlier tonight we had server related issues with a concurrent player spike," Arrowhead wrote. "This lead to some mission payouts failing, some players being kicked to their ships, or being logged out.
"Our team is working around the clock to solve these issues. While we've been able to mitigte some of the causes, we are still struggling to keep up with the scaling that is needed to accommodate all our Helldivers.
"Therefore, we've had to cap our concurrent players to around 450,000 to further improve server stability. We will continue to work with our partners to get the ceiling raised.
"If you have progression-related issues, please restart the game in order for things to sync back up. Thank you for your continued patience!"
