The dangers that involve every mission inHelldivers 2see players constantly relying on the inventions made possible by Super Earth’s technological advancements. Other than weapons, vehicles such as the ever-reliable Pelican-1 orthe powerful Exosuit mechsare considered important factors that determine the success of an assignment. While those two are highly regarded, their significance pales to the Super Destroyer’s. Although there’s no denying the value of the massive ship, especially since it’s basically the game’s main HUB area, it could still benefit from receiving a certain change that both the Pelican-1 and Exosuits have been given.
The Super Destroyer ofHelldivers 2is where everything from choosing missions to purchasing equipment takes place, letting players know how important it is in the efforts toward galactic freedom. Though there are ways to improve what it can do to help, there isn’t really anything that can help personalize its appearance. Every Super Destroyer has the same upgrades, eventually leading to all players having identical ships. One way to change that is by following the path of the Pelican-1 and Exosuits, namely having optional skins to choose from. Giving the massive ship a way to change its looks can allow for a new level of personalization, and pave the way for other unique opportunities that can help enhance the game.
Why the Super Destroyer Should Have Skins
Whilethe Super Destroyer has ship modulesthat visibly change parts of the ship when purchased, they are things everyone will obtain at some point. Skins have the opportunity to make something feel more unique, especially if there are many of them to choose from. Should the Super Destroyer ever be allowed to have them, then it could lead to some interesting benefits such as:
If people are allowed tochange the name of their Super Destroyer, then it would be reasonable to assume that a time will come when they can alter their ship’s appearance as well. Should Arrowhead Game Studios allow it in a future update, players will likely appreciate the option, earning the developer more goodwill and maybe even attracting potential newcomers looking to play something with a good amount of customization.
Adding Super Destroyer Skins Opens Up New Possibilities
If the addition of skins for the ship becomes a major hit with the players, Arrowhead Game Studios could use it as a gateway towards an interestingcustomization mechanic that can benefitHelldivers 2, one that involves players being able to choose which parts they can change. Giving something like that to a game element as big and full of swappable parts as the Super Destroyer would not only improve a player’s capability of giving their ship a unique identity, but it can also lead to more interesting ideas for content that can be added in the future. Each component that can be changed could also have its own skin, allowing the development team more opportunities to come up with unique additions while giving players more things to collect and another reason to continue playing the game.
The Super Destroyer ofHelldviers 2faces a dilemma with its upgrades, with the issue being that they don’t do much in the customization department. Giving the massive ship some skins for players to purchase could solve that, while also opening up possibilities for even more features involving personalization. If Arrowhead Game Studios sees the potential of what the addition could do, perhaps it won’t be long until the game is full of unique-looking Super Destroyers.
