Time should fly once you’re having enjoyable. Or no less than once you’re defending Tremendous Earth from an enormous Illuminate invasio. Helldivers 2‘s newest main order is the “closing part” of the battle for the divers’ house planet that is been raging because the Heart of Democracy update dropped on Could 20.
I need to admit, I assumed the Galactic Warfare twist that is introduced the biggest number of Helldivers again to the sport of any replace it is gotten to date would final a bit longer than three MOs. Then once more, that is Helldivers 2 – the struggle ain’t wherever near over whereas there are nonetheless troops on the march and enemies to surf on.
Initially, the final main order, which expired earlier in the present day, was a correct heartbreaker. After casually killing 2.5 billion Illuminate within the first stage of Tremendous Earth’s protection, gamers weren’t fairly capable of efficiently extract from missions towards the Illuminate 20 million instances. They acquired damn close, although.
So, with that, whereas the divers have worn the Illuminate fleet’s energy all the way down to an estimated “24% of its unique 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 making ready for this invasion; they may maintain again nothing. What has come earlier than was the preamble; that is the endgame…The Helldivers have their orders: HOLD Tremendous Earth.”
In an effort to do this, gamers’ll have to dig in on Tremendous Earth towards the squids, whereas additionally scrapping 200 million Automatons to allow them to carry the Democracy House Station again on-line to assist that first bit. As of writing, almost 98 million bots have already been bashed in because the order debuted this morning.
Of us are seemingly going all out, little question buoyed by the actual fact in the present day’s little Helldivers 2 patch – 01.003.003 – made a very fashionable change to the Strengthened Epaulettes passive that comes with the armour units from the lately deployed Masters of Ceremony Warbond. In addition to making your limbs much less more likely to snap like twigs, you will now be capable to reload your major weapon 30% sooner and do 50% extra melee harm when rocking the Parade Commander and Honorary Guard units.
Cue celebrations on Reddit.
