Arrowhead CEO on negative reviews: "I guess it's warranted. Sorry everyone for how this all transpired. I hope we will make it up and regain the trust by providing a continued great game experience." (twitter.com)

As someone else in another thread pointed out, the helldivers IP is owned by sony. They may have no choice.
