Helldivers 2 players are pushing to rename one of Super Earth's cities 'Gun'

Gun.


There are a lot of them in Helldivers 2, it being a shooter and all. HD2 players aren't happy for it to end there though.

Dubbed Control Group, it'll give you access to a bunch of experimental gear Super Earth's scientists have cobbled together from captured Illuminate tech if you opt to pick it up when it drops on June 17th.
