- New enemy faction: Both bugs and robots that make life difficult for you in Helldivers 2 were already present in Part 1, so it is reasonable to assume that the Illuminati from Part 1 will be the next enemies. They are an ancient and highly technical civilization that relies on energy weapons and drones.
- Friendly Fire is here to stay: According to the veterans, team fire is simply part of the game and will therefore remain in the game.
- Usable mechs: The mechs have already been hinted at in a trailer for Helldivers 2 and will most likely find their way into the game. In the first part, there were three such exosuits with different weaponry.
- New weapons: The main weapons mentioned here are the laser weapons, which are not yet available in Helldivers 2. A semi-automatic weapon that fires small missiles is also proposed. (CR-9 Supressor)
- Additional difficulty levels: The current game has nine difficulty levels; including the DLCs, the first part now has 15.
- Boss battles: Players also believe that a return of powerful bosses with special mechanics is possible.
- New mission objectives: It is very likely that new types of missions will be added in the future. The veterans cite the defusing of minefields as an example.
How likely are the forecasts?
Reddit user bluedino44 argues that “Helldivers 2 is basically a 3D version of Helldivers 1” According to bluedino44, most of the weapons, equipment, mission objectives and even the enemies were taken from the first game. It is therefore likely that the developers will stick to this approach.
