Will we see cities/towns at some point?

[Kirshak]

I remember back to HellDivers1 we were battling inside cities when we were forced to defend Super Earth planets.

I'd like to see that back in Helldivers2 something that tells us that we are defending Super Earth Property when we have to defend instead of attacking. I came to a point that I just Quick search SOS and don't even care if we attack or defend because I can't see any difference on the battlefield, it's an another grassland planet with bad guys on it

maybe. I wouldnt expect it soon.

we just got a new planet type of HUGe forested trees and swamps and its absolutely beautiful.

the only other planets I can think of them adding would be volcano lava planets. and well industrial planets.

I don't think so.
People are complaining about low fps already and that on low detail planets...tens of thousands of PCs are going on meltdown in cities.

replace mountains with skyscrapers. and the dirt with concrete. I dont really think it would take any more resources than the current maps.

hell probably less since a LOT less foliage.

Maybe smaller and more linear maps could save some performance and the streets between the different buildings will give the "open world" feel.

I don't think the buildings need to be huge skyscrappers anyway, the first game had the buildings moderately small, it felt like a small town instead of a mega city

I hope they add it soon

The new swamp biome makes me think maybe it's possible.

The swamp is super dense.

I don't think it needs to be massive city wise either. some paved roads and highways, some buildings, some monuments to democracy all decently spread out should give the illusion of a city, or small suburbia area

Hope so..
I would like to see some truly alien worlds
Like where the "rocks" are made of precious metals, and there are diamond outcroppings, multiple sun's with different colours so the sky changes over the course of a mission, plants that literally try to eat you, just all kinds of mad alien stuff
But yeah, city maps likenin hd1 would be sweet

literally replace the trees with buildings and the dirt with roads and concrete and well. there you go.
