Talk:Helldivers Wiki

The War mechanic needs to be altered so that all home-worlds are much easier to conquer. Otherwise players, like right now, will spend weeks only playing against the illuminate home-world; progress resetting every 48 hours. Shorter wars are better, especially for newer players. The mechanic as it exist and low player population is creating a toxic entry experience. Get the game designer to accept this, and you can increase sales and player numbers.

People are stuck at home right now and will be until June. Get more out of this asset.

CSS causing stutter + lag

I am new to wiki.gg; apologies if this is the wrong thread to bring up this issue.

There are two lines in the helldivers theme (the default theme), that are causing considerable amounts of stutter and lag (tested on chrome & Firefox, likely affects more.)

backdrop-filter: blur(10px); in classes .mw-footer and .mw-body. This is a very resource intensive function, instead we could perhaps used an already-blurred background, or forgo the effect altogether (or perhaps make helldivers not the default theme.)

It creates a barrier for new people that are looking to join or use the wiki, as this is the default theme.

I'm not sure how to edit the CSS, or if I am even able to, though I would appreciate it if this is fixed

Non-roleplay lore adding

When i come to a wiki like this, I just want to understand the actual lore of the game. I don't want to have to deal with all the annoying roleplayers who change the lore and fake it so they can "prove their devotion to Super Earth". I want to know the actual and non biased lore of the game so I can understand stuff like why are the illuminate are invading, or where did the automatons come from.

That’s actually what our goal is for the wiki. We strive to get as much direct, neutral lore written for our pages. Or as neutral as the games allow since they presents literally everything from Super Earth's pov.

Unfortunately, Helldivers 2 has a very vast scope, which combined with the semi-randomized delivery of dialog lines and lore pickups makes auditing lore a bit challenging. If you see something on our pages that looks like someone was roleplaying, please feel free to edit it out or mention it on the pages talk page, and we'll take a look.

Idea: A Theory Page

This comes from the fact that when i look and the newer warbonds, i think there is a connection with how the war is progressing. Just an idea. Yaegerheim (talk) 21:56, 18 May 2025 (UTC)

I could certainly see this as an interesting idea! We would not be able to have it in the main namespace however, as we make it a standard that anything in there is 100% verifiable. That being said, you could certainly use your user namespace for it! This way it could still be found on the wiki for anyone interested, and it would not be within our locked down namespace where all of the extra content rules apply.

In order to use the user namespace, all you need to do is create a page and name it in the following format: User:Yaegerheim/PAGE_NAME_HERE.

If you need any help with this process please let me know! Betta7776 (talk) 02:11, 19 May 2025 (UTC)
