Arrowhead is now focusing on quality over quantity

In aPlayStation Blogpost, Arrowhead explained its new approach to creating Premium Warbonds for Helldivers.The previous Warbond disappointed a lot of fans, and now, it seems like Arrowhead hopes to compensate by dropping a better Warbond. They wrote,

We are changing the arrangement of items in each Warbond to make room for new item types, and also higher quality armor and weapons. This will prevent us from simply adding more of everything, which can lead to weapons that feel redundant and uninteresting armor. It’s time to focus on quality over quantity.
