Time should fly while you’re having enjoyable. Or not less than while you’re defending Tremendous Earth from an enormous Illuminate invasio. Helldivers 2‘s newest main order is the “ultimate part” of the battle for the divers’ house planet that is been raging because the Heart of Democracy update dropped on Might 20.
I need to admit, I assumed the Galactic Conflict twist that is introduced the biggest number of Helldivers again to the sport of any replace it is gotten to this point would final a bit longer than three MOs. Then once more, that is Helldivers 2 – the conflict ain’t anyplace near over whereas there are nonetheless troops on the march and enemies to surf on.
To begin with, the final main order, which expired earlier as we speak, was a correct heartbreaker. After casually killing 2.5 billion Illuminate within the first stage of Tremendous Earth’s protection, gamers weren’t fairly in a position to efficiently extract from missions in opposition to the Illuminate 20 million instances. They acquired damn close, although.
So, with that, whereas the divers have worn the Illuminate fleet’s power all the way down to an estimated “24% of its authentic working energy”, solely 4 of Tremendous Earth’s seven Mega Cities are left standing. Yep, two extra have joined the brilliantly-named Eagleopolis as smouldering wrecks.
Cue Arrowhead’s newest order, which declares the third part of Tremendous Earth’s protection to be the ultimate one. “Excessive Command anticipates an all-out assault to take the ultimate 4 Mega Cities,” the studio wrote, “The Illuminate have spent a century getting ready for this invasion; they are going to maintain again nothing. What has come earlier than was the preamble; that is the endgame…The Helldivers have their orders: HOLD Tremendous Earth.”
With a view to try this, gamers’ll must dig in on Tremendous Earth in opposition to the squids, whereas additionally scrapping 200 million Automatons to allow them to carry the Democracy Area Station again on-line to assist that first bit. As of writing, practically 98 million bots have already been bashed in because the order debuted this morning.
People are seemingly going all out, little doubt buoyed by the very fact as we speak’s little Helldivers 2 patch – 01.003.003 – made a highly regarded change to the Bolstered Epaulettes passive that comes with the armour units from the not too long ago deployed Masters of Ceremony Warbond. In addition to making your limbs much less more likely to snap like twigs, you may now be capable to reload your main weapon 30% sooner and do 50% extra melee harm when rocking the Parade Commander and Honorary Guard units.
Cue celebrations on Reddit.
