Of 20 hours of game play, I've crashed about 100 times. I crash after every other match. Always it's a kernel_power problem. Always there are two new files called npgm.erl and npsc64.erl in the [root]Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Helldivers 2\bin\GameGuard directory when the crash happens. When looking at WinDiag, it always shows a kernel_power shutdown as the critical event code.

There is significant complaints about the Game Guard anti-cheat software that was bundled with it. It resides in the kernel, and evidently doesn't get supported enough to 'whitelist' whatever processes/drivers/services/et al that you may have running. All to stop hackers? Which are in the game anyway.

Great game, but it's being killed by it's own anti-cheat that doesn't even work... :(

EDIT: Still broken beyond play. Server Ping Hits 9999 consistent on official servers.
EDIT: The recent chapter update completely broke the game. It's unplayable.
DLC cosmetics are $30 for 'half completed' set pieces that don't work after purchase, and are missing key components to build with (or the item stats get nerfed) ... Or the 'function' of the 'cosmetic' has bounding box issues when it animates. There are so many issues with this game, yet they continue to sell buggy cosmetics instead of fixing the bugs they created 2 years ago.

If your idea of fun is being frustrated from random crashes, or things that should work and don't, then this game is GREAT! Far too many bugs, crashes, and poor management from the game company. The Pay to Play model of company is borderline criminal, as they bait and switch items in their "Cosmetics" store all the time. An item sells as "over-powered", becomes the META in the game, and then they Nerf the bought item. Also... Battle-eye does not work for the massive amount of "foreign" hackers in the online version of the game.
