Helldivers 2 Faces Criticism for Reward Structure and Toxic Player Behavior

The popular third-person shooter is under scrutiny for its pass-or-fail rewards and the negative impact of farming and toxic actions by some players.

Helldivers 2's reward system, which offers nothing for failed missions, is criticized for demotivating players and encouraging toxic behavior.
Farming for medals and resources by some players is disrupting the game's community and war efforts, leading to frustration among dedicated players.
Toxic behaviors, including team-killing and resource hoarding, have been reported, detracting from the game's cooperative spirit.
Despite these issues, Helldivers 2 has been praised for its engaging gameplay and has become one of 2024's biggest hits.
Suggestions for improving the game include revising the reward structure and implementing measures to discourage toxic behavior.
