Apparently Arrowhead agrees: In response to an inquiry about the release of the next patch, community manager Twinbeard said it'll be out "when it's done.".
It's been genuinely remarkable to watch Arrowhead build Helldivers 2 into a game experience that feels genuinely alive.
Eschewing a regular schedule of updates, Helldivers 2 developers appear to just do things, an embrace of chaos that keeps everyone on their toes.
In a separate message on Discord, Twinbeard said the specifics of a new, slower update schedule haven't yet been decided.
"I'd say it's something we have to try out and get a feel for," he wrote.
"[at the moment] we feel a slightly lower cadence overall will benefit both us, you, and the game.". »
