1 BUGS OR BOTS
The galactic war sees Super Earth beset on both sides by Terminid insects and Automaton robots. These factions feature entirely different rosters; the Automatons, for example, have ranged weapons, while the Terminids rely more on swarming you.
2 MAJOR ORDERS
While Helldivers 2 doesn’t have a story as such, it does have Major Orders. These objectives set the playerbase a challenge to overcome to progress Super Earth’s galactic war. This might be taking planets back from Terminids or defending against robots.
3 GET IN THE WAR
Your first step in Helldivers 2 is choosing a weapon. The current frontrunner in the meta is the SG-225 Breaker shotgun, but the standard AR-23 Liberator is no slouch, either. As you earn Medals and progress through your War Bond you’ll unlock new weapons.
4 DEMOCRACY PROTECTS
Armour is also important in Helldivers 2. Light armor offers speed and stamina at the expense of protection, while heavy armor turns you tanky but makes you slow. Make sure you also choose armor with a valuable passive, such as extra survivability.
