Oh no, you better get to Helldiver 2 as soon as possible. There’s also a big order about killing a bunch of stuff, and it looks like it’ll be over before you can say “Super Earth slow down, you should savor this or you might get indigestion.”
If you don’t know what I mean, Helldivers 2’s playerbase has worked really hard to cultivate a reputation for being able to murder dead things at an incredible rate. The first time this happens, people are so confused that they start trying to do math problems. Recently, they completed the entire MO in one night and began to wonder if Arrowhead had accidentally set the required kill total too low. These people don’t play – well, they play, but you know what I mean.

After getting some temporary free mecha ride tickets through the last victory, the next MO is a good break from the battles of controlling planets and fighting robots. “Following encouraging and rapid support for the terminal research program from Helldivers, the Department of Science has requested a second, larger research trial,” the letter reads. “An important finding from the Phase 1 study is that if Terminid E-710 yields increase significantly when harvested after periods of extreme stress.
“In order to determine whether there is a relationship between the method of elimination and the production of E-710, the Ministry of Science requested the use of multiple means to eliminate Terminids. The High Command has authorized the rotation of a series of enhanced strategies during this period. In order to support scientific progress, the experimental The amount of Terminid biomass required for meaningful data is equivalent to 1,000,000,000 dead Terminid bugs.
Oh, and if you hadn’t guessed, Scheduling provides a helpful warning: “Terminal bug invasion and expansion may increase as a result of these efforts.”
It seems like the mission has only been about two hours so far, how is it going? Good guy. Of the 1 billion bugs required to fulfill the order, approximately 16.8 billion, or 16%, have died.
So yeah, unlike the last order, I wouldn’t expect to be able to leave it a few days before you come, even though there are currently about four days and six hours left.
Seriously, stop dreaming about playing 16-bit Helldivers on your ship and do it, soldier!
