Helldivers 2 Adds Flying Bugs, Denies Their Existence

As the community continues to fight in Super Earth's galactic war, one dedicated play has envisioned a simple yet effective solution to one of the game's persistent problems: Supply lines. While Arrowhead Studios does an excellent job of introducing mechanics and concepts to players, one aspect that isn't clarified when starting up the game is how interplanetary travel works. Fortunately, with such a committed player base, it didn't take long for players to learn about supply lines but despite the discovery, many are still unclear on how they actually work.

success keeps continuing, and with every Major Order issued by High Command, the game keeps improving. That's not to say it's perfect, however — as one unfortunate mechanic may actually result in the game crashing completely. Though is packed with hours of fun content, the game itself can sometimes be buggy, which is not that surprising considering it was just released in February. One unfortunate bug, however, may ruin a squad's fun completely.

The objective known as Operation Swift Disassembly is an exciting push of momentum against the threat of the Automatons, but soldiers of Super Earth would be unwise to place too much stock in its success. Unlike most online multiplayer games, has a constantly updating narrative based around the tides of the Galactic War. Progress is partly determined by the community's efforts in each Major Order, but the overall path is also shaped by a game master who ultimately controls the story.

After denials by Arrowhead Game Studios CEO and director Johann Pilestedt that Helldivers 2 has flying bugs—playfully dismissing it as propaganda by “bug sympathizers”—the studio boss has now acknowledged that “most bugs fly” and that the arrival of flying bugs was only ever a matter of time.

Don't back down, double down. The Helldivers 2 propaganda machine is spinning up once again after the horrible flying Terminid bugs debuted in the game, something its creative director dismissed as "propaganda from bug sympathizers" when players first reported it.

If you’re playing Helldivers 2 and finding the game crashes more than usual, you’re not alone. Developer Arrowhead has said a lot of players are currently being affected by a crash issue, which is linked to the release of a recent patch, and it’s on the case.

Although the general playerbase of has picked up a number of important victories in the ongoing Galactic War, the newest Major Order could prove to be an all but impossible task. Serving as the main system that pushes the ongoing narrative of forwards, the Galactic War measures the playerbase's collective efforts on multiple fronts of a galaxy-spanning conflict, with Major Orders representing major pushes against one enemy faction.

Helldivers 2 players have finally secured undeniable proof of blue lasers and flying Terminids appearing in the game, much to the dismay of the game's director.

Despite splitting its galactic war relatively evenly across multiple factions, hasn't managed to maintain an equal divide between the Terminid and Automaton fronts, with the playerbase generally favoring the Terminids. As the galactic war of progresses, however, with the potential for new factions to be added, there are some potential ways to alleviate the relative unpopularity of fighting automatons — that is, if the disparity between them is seen as an issue worth trying to solve.

The community has never shied away from tackling the Galactic War with gusto, but when taking a step back to look at the overall picture, some of the current efforts of Super Earth's soldiers might actually be poised to backfire. Although individual objectives can vary, the basic prerogatives of are always simple enough. Terminids and Automatons must be defeated at all costs, a necessary step in ensuring the safety and spread of Managed Democracy throughout the galaxy.

While continues to dominate the video game industry, one star is eager for a crossover with the game his film inspired. It doesn't take a lot to recognize that Arrowhead Studios' game and Paul Verhoeven's cult-classic sci-fi have a great deal in the company especially given that both act as satirical comments on the modern military-industrial complex and the influence of propaganda on society. Despite these heavy themes, there's still a great amount of fun to be had in either given that they also spotlight soldiers firing big weapons at giant alien bugs.

As the Galactic War in continues to evolve, new challenges are constantly being introduced, giving players plenty of opportunity to experiment with new strategies. A recent Major Order has refocused the war effort on the Terminid front, tasking Helldivers with activating the newly operational Terminid Control System in unique missions similar to those in the failed Automaton defense campaign. Getting the Terminid Control System up and running brings its own difficulties to the game, however, and there are a couple underrated Stratagems that can really shine in these unique missions.
