Liberation stalled?

[Kenshi Wolf]

Okay Maybe it's just me but does liberation decay oddly fast or has the game just become full of people who fail missions back to back to back? I've noticed ever sense Tein Kwan that the automaton front hasn't had a single world go over 1% liberation, we'll get close but then i'll go to bed come back and it's back down to near total failure?

I'm sure this might be another 'ah we updated and something got shifted wrong give us a minute' situation But I have to know i'm not the only one noticing this issue.

they paused the liberation status on planets due to some server issues and forgot to inform the community about it on their larger social media platforms, they only started the liberations back up like an hour ago.

that explains a lot about last night actually, but i don't think the pause was as effective as they wanted cause i still saw it ticking up last night

Do you happen to have a source?

theres something like 4 or 5 times as many people playing bugs as there are playing bots right now. the liberation status is updating, we just dont have enough people doing their part on bots right now, thats all. probably got burnt out on them after tein kwan

Do yourself a favour and check Helldivers IO[helldivers.io]. That'll give you up-to-date data for player populations, progress rate and decay rate.

And it was pretty clear that over the weekend (i.e. the time they might not prioritize fixing things that aren't world ending) liberation progress was on hold.

Since this morning it looks like we're liberating again, just now player populations are fairly small/split, so only Angel's Venture is making progress.

Im so glad that is the case. I was like "There can't be this many noobs playing" Since Angels Venture never went above 54% and the bot worlds havent increased either over the weekend. I was going crazy thinking Im seeing things that arent there.

I was merely offering that as a source of information, as opposed to trying to guess. Progress isn't being reset and losing missions doesn't seem to reduce progress. It decays naturally over time.

there are about as many people on angel's venture as there where on tein kwan and yet angel's venture has had 2 days to liberate and is only half way there while tein kwan was liberated in a day.

So population numbers is not the only factor here, plus even when worlds had this few people prior they still made better progress then what we're seeing lately, all your ideas sound logical but don't hold up when you look at all the factors.
