If you have no one to play Helldivers 2 with, then the Quickplay option can be a great option as it matches you with players of your skill levels to start playing. But the game at its current state, it seems like the Quickplay option is bugged, and you need to know exactly what to do in order to fix these matchmaking issues. So, in this article, we will guide you on how to fix matchmaking issues in Helldivers 2.
How to fix the matchmaking problems in Helldivers 2
Here are the steps to fix matchmaking issues in Helldivers 2
- Open up the Galactic War Table or the Map
- From the list of Planets and missions, select one
- Select the operation mode or the mission that want to play on
- Keep your cursor placed on the Operation mode and press R
- As the Quickplay starts, click on the operation within 0.5 to 1.5secs and you are good to go
- If you fail to do it within the mentioned time, you can try again from Step 2.
Doing this simple little trick helped many people bypass matchmaking issues in Helldivers 2. However, if this trick doesn’t work for you, then you can try jumping to a different location on the same planet. Select the mission and this will move the ship. Switching back to the older mission you want to do, press R to start Quickplay, and immediately click on the mission you want to do within a second.
Also, remember that Helldivers 2 has crossplay support, and it is bugged right now, so you are better off turning it off to counter more matchmaking issues. To keep it short and straightforward, you must select a mission right after you press the Quickplay button, and yes, you need to be superfast with that.
If you are having issues login to the game in the first place, then you can try out this simple trick
- Open up Steam
- Go to the Friends & Tab
- Look for a friend playing Helldivers 2
- Right-click on the player and click on “Join Game.”
As the Reddit user “RiskyTitsky” says, the login was quicker and worked better than launching the game itself.
