You didn't gate keep shit retard. Redditors and /hdg/ screamed and screamed until all of the difficulty and danger was removed from the game. Nice "gate keeping" retard.

Normie nigger NPC's ruin everything, anon. Arrowhead made many mistakes themselves, but the soul of the game was ripped out to appease angry shitters and gamer dads. The creek was awesome but for me, Draupnir was the real bot planet.

Many ways to make the game harder.
>More armor and hp for enemies
>More enemies
>more complex objectives
>better accuracy and detection for the enemies
>more negative modifiers
>reduced ammo and stims for helldivers
>Shorter mission times
>less helldiver lives

Everything i listed would however be labeled as "artificial difficulty" by butthurt redditors and /hdg/ players. Because for redditors, anything that actually makes the game more challenging is considered "artificial","tedious", annoying or whatever cop out they use to deflect their skill issue.

How tough am i? I preferred the game before the buff patch sissified the game and made it palatable to redditors and /hdg/.

I plan on trying that out here real soon but there is no reason why HD2 can't have a super hard mode. At least fatshark doesn't bend the knee anytime someone cries.
>But muh exp and samples!
Make the payout for the new super hard mode the exact same as a D10 mission. There, problem solved.
