It actually runs really well on the Deck! Aiming is a bit hard on controllers, but I’m sure it’s the same as playing on a PS5. Only slight problem is the font sizes are small. So reading stuff is a pain, but it doesn’t affect the core game play.
Works fine on the deck for me although I had to turn the graphics down a bit.
I mostly use the trackpads instead of the joysticks.
Gyro for the finer aim.
When I hold the stratagem bumper, the joysticks become dpads to punch codes.
Make sure you don’t have half rate shading enabled, otherwise any text is completely unreadable.
Just had the host leave at mission 2 of 3 (level 7) we hadn’t even gotten any SS yet.
I think I’ll be pushing to lvl 9 soon
Their game might have disconnected. Seems to happen a bit.
I got a CTD while I was hauling 20/23/3 samples to an extract with 50 seconds till landing. I’m sure that guy thought I was a degenerate.
CTD?
Crash to desktop
Seems to be happening more frequently. I never got disconnected mid-mission before this weekend, then it happened several times.
If you’re on PC, try validating your install files in Steam. That usually fixes it for me if I’m crashing after a patch.
PS5 here. My gaming PC is a Steam Deck, I didn’t think Helldivers 2 would run great on it.

Played on it today. Worked fine! My only complaint was that I had a bit of a hard time seeing enemies.
Happens to me once a session usually
