Arrowhead Game Studios has addressedHelldivers 2’sSuper Credit farming exploit, confirming that it aims to fix the issue soon.
As reported byGamesRadar, aHelldivers 2player recently took to the game’s officialDiscord channelto report to the developer that they have discovered a bug that allows players to repeatedly claim Super Credits in bulk, one of the few available in-game currencies that can be obtained for free during missions.
The user explained that the issue is “there are tutorials circulating onYouTubethat explain how to farm Super Credits for free using a game glitch,” but didn’t go into exact detail on how to achieve the exploit. However, they did offer a summary of how it’s done, saying that when players obtain Super Credits, they can either “Force Quit” the game on PC or shut down theirPS5console entirely.
When they boot the game back up, the player can retain the Super Credits that they’ve earned despite not completing the mission.
“This issue needs to be fixed as soon as possible as it is an illegitimate method, and in the long run, it damages not only the seriousness of the players but also the development team,” the user added. “I hope you take my message seriously.”
Although it seems to be a bug that not that many players are aware of right now, Arrowhead Game Studios was able to assure the Discord user that it is aware of the issue and intends to solve the exploit as soon as possible.
“Hi! We’re aware of this undemocratic behavior. Thanks for doing your sworn duty and reporting it, though. Hooah!” Arrowhead said in response.
