>WHAT IS HELLDIVERS 2?
HELLDIVERS 2 is a 2024 crossplay, co-op, squad-based, PvE 3rd person shooter for PC, PS5 and XBox Series X/S where players fight against hordes of alien insects, robots and squids to Spread Democracy™. Players wage war on contested planets, each with a different biome, completing as many objectives as possible in a procedurally generated level while constrained by a time limit. With enough successful missions, a planet can be defended or liberated, and the player base must combine their efforts as much as possible to Liberate™ the galaxy.

>WHAT ABOUT THE FIRST HELLDIVERS GAME?
Released in 2015 for PC, PS3/4 and PS Vita, the original HELLDIVERS is a shared screen top-down shooter in the same setting. Its mechanics were based primarily on Arrowhead's first game, Magicka.

One day, when the game is in desperate need for a player count boost, they will drop a 40k Imperial Guard warbond

And it will be pure shit because Swedes hate (you)

Downward spiral of wh40k will make some intresting retrospective. Decline of vibe alone is something else.
From gritty, dark and pulpy of 90s. To serius grimdark of 2000s to shoot and cry hugfest of 2020s.
>>
>>556468081
Voting list is based on whichever planets have the highest player population at the time of the end of the last vote. Since Aurora Bay and Merak both had zero players, it defaulted to the remaining planets that weren't Chort Bay.
>>
>>556468585
I enjoyed the grimdark stuff from the 2000s. It had that grotesque magnetism to it, where you were repulsed but wanted to see more at the same time
>>
>>556467208
Nah i prefer a bigger investment in fleshing this game than that.

I want more Illuminate units ! NEW ones, alongside the Illuminate cultists. Give me an overseer field commander with a energy greatsword and a warp pack of his own, and some new horrors made from voteless already. Something. More bio-robotic units wouldn't hurt to have either, Drone, Laser Eye Turrets, Tripods and Stingrays ain't enough to satisfy me....

I would kill 10 trillion Swedes for more competent enemy AI.

Would be more interesting if the Automatons AND SE started to get along following that but a radical ultranationalist Automaton movement couped their leadership and returned everything to the current status quo with a small SE-aligned splinter faction remaining allied with SE so we could keep fighting alongside Automatons (a la SEAF spawns) every once in a while past this event.

Let's not act surprised here. The MO lasts another 3 days. Lately it doesn't matter wether it has a "hold x planet till MO expires" sub objective or not. Joel WILL make the MO last a full week so they can time their updates with tuesday. It's all thinly veiled railroading. No matter what, this MO will end with an hour or two left on the clock because it's convenient for AH and there's nothing we can do or change about it
