It really sucks that Helldivers 2 is having an issue over too many connections. I know the devs are saying this is complicated, and it is, but they're not the only company that is serving a huge amount of users. This game has several questionable design decisions and this is just one of them. I hope it can be fixed because I was really looking forward to playing
Designing for a huge amount of users costs money and expertise, so more money, and not even their most optimistic predictions included this many players. If they hadn't made it big, that money would've been wasted. Which games are going to go viral is just insanely hard to predict.
I mean letting people play their coop game if their servers are having issues is free. The game itself is P2P anyway.
