btw poi's that look like the pointer instead of the diamond can still have samples if they have a crate or 2-person door, the only samples that show up as diamonds are the ones that spawn naturally on the map/on the groundInteresting video to know how to farm samples. I knew the yellow lights meant points of interest, but didn't know about the flags:
>60 samples in a 15 minutes mission type, the "retrieve essential personnel" one.

yeah i've been maxed for a while too. they should drop the major update with illuminate soon...i expect then our ship bays will get more upgradesI'm maxed out like 1-2 weeks ago at 500 greens, 250 oranges, and 100 purple. Only for leveling up now and medals.
Thanks, I didn't know this.btw poi's that look like the pointer instead of the diamond can still have samples if they have a crate or 2-person door, the only samples that show up as diamonds are the ones that spawn naturally on the map/on the ground
Automaton threat exterminated for the time being. Pretty neat.
doubtful they’re gone for the game for any significant length of time because no one would waste assets like that or FOMO a significant part of the current game like that.
This game is pretty much a live event that goes on in perpetuity.
It would be nice if they brought in the Cyborgs seeking revenge for the Automatons.Automaton threat exterminated for the time being. Pretty neat.

Fire! This baby has lots of life.Planet about to be liberated in like 5~ minutes so CCUs on Steam are wayyy up today.
It's April 7th and the game released on Feb 8th, so that makes it pretty much 2 months since its release.
What's the current CCU as we speak? Just a casual 330,540.
Edit: Seemingly peaked at 345,188.
I feel like they need to add the new faction soon. Killing bugs and automatons is getting old.
They already have the assets ready to go.
when there's a lot of players it sometimes takes a day or two to get rewards for major ordersJust noticed that the major order has been completed, no automatons left. I'm pretty sure they'll introduce the Illuminate now, and will also bring automatons back in a very aggresive comeback campaign.
The thing is... I think I didn't get the major order reward, or maybe got it yesterday without noticing it.
Did you receive these major order medals?
Impressive and well deserved, very good game and developer.After 2 months
Oh thanks, today we got 345K+ CCU peak, the highest since the 17th (Warbond release weekend). Maybe this is the reason, makes sense. Next week there's Warbond, so pretty likely in the weekend it will get a peak of beyond 350K, maybe even 400K. Specially if they also introduce the Illuminate this week.when there's a lot of players it sometimes takes a day or two to get rewards for major orders
From what I've read about what used to happen in Helldivers 1, one of three things should happen:You can't even play on the Automatons side anymore. Joel robbed me of my choice like he did with Ellie
Well duh I wasn't aware of today's news when I wrote this post.From what I've read about what used to happen in Helldivers 1, one of three things should happen:
1 - Joel doesn't add anything else, lets the gamers kill all the Terminids and the game is won and then restarted with the Automatons and Terminids, meaning you'll wait probably less than a week before being able to fight automatons again.
2 - Joel adds the Illuminate as a new threat, meaning you'll have a new species to play against but it'll take a bit more before you can fight Automatons
3 - Joel reintroduces another Automaton (and/or Cyborg) threat elsewhere in the Galaxy.
Either way, you'll eventually be able to fight automatons again in a non-distant future.
