Not often is there an uneventful second in Helldivers 2, and what Arrowhead formally has cooking now with its newest tease is extremely thrilling. Arrowhead hasn’t been coy about lingering tethers between each video games, both. Nonetheless, what gamers can anticipate from accessible enemy factions will differ relying on their information of what got here earlier than, and the sequel doesn’t make clear efforts normally to make sure that gamers are totally conscious of the sequence’ wealthy lore. As the celebrities have aligned, an enormous leak has begun to manifest in Helldivers 2, with affirmation that the Automatons will lead us again to Cyberstan.
When it comes to upcoming updates/occasions, anybody who’s adopted Helldivers 2 lore or can pretty estimate what enemy faction is overdue for an replace will probably predict that the Automatons are quickly to obtain a comeuppance, and in an enormous manner. Plus, in case you’ve been perusing leaks in any respect that sprout right here and there, significantly from Helldivers 2 leaker IronS1ghts, you’d know that there was cause to imagine that gamers would chase the bot faction again to their creators’ homeworld, the Valdis sector’s Cyberstan. Now, following the newest Main Order’s success, a reveal has been made that explicitly references Helldivers’ Cyberstan and teases the inevitable job gamers will undertake in liberating it.
Helldivers 2’s Main Order Success and Vessel 00 Reveal
“Vessel 00 is indicated to be a spaceship that departed from the planet Cyberstan in 2180, approximately 4 years prior to the initial Automaton attack. The cargo and destination of that voyage is unknown, but it is referred to as the final one the ship made. Vessel 00 is referred to in exultation – evidence of Automaton programming to express reverence towards it. It is additionally referred to as their seed or origin. This information is the first to definitively connect the Automatons to Cyberstan, a rehabilitation planet invaded by them in the early days of the war.”
Apparently, this dispatch makes it clear that Cyberstan is just not a planet the Helldivers will advance on in the meanwhile, suggesting that Arrowhead has plans it’ll put into motion sooner that will or might not contain Helldivers 2’s Automatons.
“Cyberstan is deep behind enemy lines, and highly defended. Its liberation remains the top strategic objective on the Automaton front. Current operational demands prevent its liberation in the short time. But in time, it will be liberated, and the secrets of the Automatons will be revealed.”
I’m curious as to why Arrowhead would reveal a plan of assault on Cyberstan so quickly if it isn’t intending to meet it but. However, maybe Arrowhead wished to present gamers a style of what’s to return in Helldivers 2’s future, all whereas it buries its head in improvement and efficiency points—together with, in Arrowhead’s personal phrases:
- Some key crash fixes
- Fastened the first weapon/Facet-arm audio that stops throughout a mission
- Minor efficiency enhancements
- Lengthy overdue bug fixes, like Charger footstep sounds (fairly helpful) or weapon audio stopping mid mission
Helldivers 2 Leaks Foresaw ‘New Cyberstan’ a Whereas Again
It isn’t as if a return to Cyberstan is a totally bewildering or unpredictable happenstance, and there may be greater than sufficient cause to imagine that it received’t be fairly just like the Cyberstan Helldivers gamers keep in mind. Certainly, Helldivers 2’s Automaton homeworld leak has lengthy instructed that gamers would go to what the bots have terraformed into ‘New Cyberstan.’
It’s fascinating, then, that Helldivers 2 has outwardly expressed that gamers will quickly sort out Cyberstan in what is certain to be probably the most nightmarish bot encounter we’ve been confronted with to this point. And, if Arrowhead can discover worthwhile and affordable options to Helldivers 2’s performance problems within the meantime, it’ll be doubly thrilling to see what state the sport is in by then.
