In Helldivers 2, the fate of the new equipment is in the hands of the players, who face a difficult decision with the latest Supreme Order, as for the first time it forces them to choose between saving two planets with different rewards. And new equipment can be unlocked by releasing the planets Choohe and Penta, but the community will decide what it will be.
In a publication delivered on their different social networks, the developers of Helldivers 2 commanded by Grand Game Master Joel have https://twitter.com/helldivers2/status/1783831163317989858: “MAJOR ORDER: Helldivers, it’s time to choose between freeing Choohe or Penta. Depending on your choice, you will receive the MD-17 anti-tank mines or the RL-77 Airburst rocket launcher. (And you will save the citizens. Don’t forget the citizens)”.

Once the planets Choohe or Penta are liberated from robotic invaders, the Helldiver army will receive new equipment. Depending on which planet is liberated first, either the MD-17 anti-tank mines or the RL-77 Airburst rocket launcher will be obtained. The choice between mines and rocket launchers has the potential to influence the goal of the game. While mines are less common in current loadouts, they could open up new possibilities for combating armored enemies like Hulks and Strider Factories. Rocket launchers, on the other hand, could become more popular due to their high explosive power.
In forums and social networks, the decision is already the subject of heated discussions. Players weigh the pros and cons of each item of equipment and consider which choice would be best for the community. In the now classic in-game and out-of-game role-playing, one Helldiver joked, “I have family in Choohe, but daddy wants a shiny new rocket launcher. Sorry, kids.”
Another Order from Joel that will keep the game moving, apparently continuing to generate missions that will unite its community, who must constantly organize themselves in the face of possible threats.
Helldivers 2 player runs into neighbors or strangers talking about the game in bars or supermarkets
Speaking of what Helldivers 2 generates inside and outside the game itself, according to one of its players, the success of the title has been such that it has “taken over” his city and he hears people talking about the game everywhere he goes. .
In a post, this player tells the community that between his daily trips to the place where he lives and what he does to go shopping or just stop by to have a coffee, he has come across many people talking about Helldivers 2, praising the game or simply sharing experiences in their games. As he says: “I went to buy food at the supermarket. The guys at the butcher counter and the guys at the self-checkout were each talking about Helldivers. Then I went for coffee next door on the way home. The baristas were also talking about Helldivers.”
