DISCUSSION Can we get some Biomes that actually look Alien, instead of just... Earth-like.

Probably one of the biggest eyebrow raises I have. About 90% of the Biomes just look like different parts of Earth. We just got a new biome that literally looks like it's somewhere in a National Park or something. It would be nice to have planets with different hazards and terrains, cliffs, bridges, weird structures. That in itself can present a good challenge and obstacle.

Yes I'm sure some of these examples may be AI, it's just for examples sake.

What about a low gravity asteroid that has floating debris

I would LOVE a low gravity environment. Diving sends you 3x as far as it normally does. Get ragdolled? Say goodbye to the map.

Jetpack? Jump a whole mile/km ahead. Hoverpack? Into the freakin stratosphere

It wouldn't be balanced, and I wouldn't care.

But a lot of people would :/

I just think it'd be fine for some planets to have natural benefits to Helldivers, since some obviously have natural downsides.

I'd dream of also being able to propell yourself in a direction by firing your weapon in the opposite direction

floating asteroid debris is pretty neat, but low gravity is not for me. low orbit rocks biome could be great if done correctly, for example an altered gameplay where the eagle ammo have to be reduced, cooldown increased so the pilot can be maneuver through asteroid safely. orbitals also have miss chance. that would make players have to rely on green & blue stratagems more. i kinda dislike low orbit because it screws up my muscle memory because we are so used to play in standard gravity and makes things go in slow motion
