Greetings, fellow Helldivers! As we eagerly anticipate updates for Helldivers 2, it's natural for excitement to build and for us to seek out every scrap of information available. However, we must uphold the integrity of this community and respect the developers' hard work.

It has come to our attention that there have been discussions and posts regarding leaks about Helldivers 2 circulating on this subreddit. We want to remind everyone that discussing or sharing leaked information is prohibited here.

Leaked information can be harmful to the development process and the final product. It can also spoil the experience for those who prefer to discover the game's new features organically.

As a community, let's uphold the principles of respect and integrity. Let's support the developers and each other by refraining from sharing or discussing leaked content. Instead, let's focus on constructive discussions, sharing fan art, strategies, and fostering a positive environment for all Helldivers enthusiasts.

Additionally, leaking information about weapons in development gives our adversaries an opportunity to prepare before these weapons are fully ready. Assisting our enemies in any capacity is considered treasonous.

First Violations will result in a 1 day ban, further violations will result in a longer ban.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. Stay united, stay vigilant, and prepare for the ultimate fight against the enemies of Super Earth!

— The r/Helldivers Mod Team

Could be but we’ll need proof of that.

It wasn't a dev. It takes a certain kind of idiot to just go showing another colleague's work before it is ready, and we don't hire idiots.

EDIT: I'm not gonna comment on any video you might've seen in particular, but the idea that someone on my dev team would just hop online and start showing off stuff for cheap clout makes me feel sick. So drop that line of reasoning.

This is a bad take. What if a dev comes into a game and previews something. How are we supposed to know what is what. We just assume all these videos are chineese hackers?

No dev would do that.

EDIT: To be clear; I'm talking about leaks in general. I'm not gonna comment on anything specific you might've seen. If we want to give you a sneak peek it'll be obvious that it's from us.

Pretty weird take when the mechs were shown off in the trailer.

No, whatever those folks are using isn't the finished version. We want you to play the one that is done, and not before we drop it. Should go without saying.
