HELLDIVERS™ 2 News

You won't believe this, but there's one bug in Helldivers 2 that players aren't planning on spending hours asking Arrowhead to fix, as has been the case a lot over the past few months. What makes this one different? Well, it's funny, basically.

Yup, unlike with the spear's troubles, or the Superior Packing Methodology not doing what it was supposed to, or the various performance issues folks have reported, this little quirk is getting off lightly. I suppose you will do if you give folks something to meme about that isn't just the fact they don't want some anti-tank mines they feared Arrowhead would sneakily give them the other day.

While it's been known for at least a couple of months now that helldivers who get launched up into the sky can emote in mid-air - dropping a salute or offering a hug when they should be ragdolling, players have recently discovered that doing so is seemingly a pretty reliable method of decreasing the amount of damage you take from falls.

The Major Order that Helldivers 2 have been plugging away at for the past couple of days is definitely proving to be an interesting one. The latest development in it seems to hint at some fresh weaponry from the first Helldivers potentially being incoming.

If you're out of the loop, the MO has tasked folks with holding on to the planet X-45, so the ruins of a "lost Advanced Weapons Lab from the First Galactic War", which was "working on development of a powerful interplanetary battle station" prior to it falling into disrepair, can be excavated. As you can imagine, that's gotten the ol' divers pretty interested.

As they work on doing just that, players have gotten a fresh strategic update, which reads as follows: "The first layer of rubble covering the advanced weapons lab on X-45 has been cleared. Initial reports show show the facility remains largely intact.

Wake up, folks who might've thought Helldivers 2 could do with a bit of a shot in the arm Galactic War-wise! A fresh Major Order's just dropped and it looks like it could lead to Super Earth getting its hands on "a powerful interplanetary battle station" down the line.

Aside from that bit of nice child saving and some tree climbing it's been in bit quiet for Super Earth on the war from since the Meridia black hole became a thing. However, following some recent chatter about the need for Arrowhead to potentially spice things up, that's exactly what it looks like is happening.

"The planet X-45 is home to a lost Advanced Weapons Lab from the First Galactic War, buried underneath rubble and abandoned due to dangerously high radiation levels across the planet," this fresh MO reads, "The Lab was working on development of a powerful interplanetary battle station. Now, with radiation levels abated to completely safe levels, excavation and recovery of the Lab's work can begin, which would allow the eventual construction of this battle station."
