Once Fenrir III has been liberated, a new Terminid sector with a playable planet has been unlocked today: Hellmire.

It's orangish and warm, and has fire tornados: the first time I see them, they are very cool. They are pretty slow and predictable unlike the meteors.

To mark the planets of the major order we didn't have just to make once the towers: we had to liberate the planets reaching the 100% (by mostly doing to the tower mission). Or at least the first one market is the one that reached 100%.

I joined the mission mid match, didn't see any new species. I only saw some videos in twitter about the flying bug.
Hellmire was open before but I think we lost access to it due to one of the planets en route falling to the bugs

After a month and a half, today is the first day with Helldivers 2 no longer being the top 1 best seller in Steam.

Counterstrike 2 was number 1.

Helldivers 2 has returned to number 1 in Top seller and Global Top seller.

Maybe it changed for a moment, but I just went to check steamdb and Helldivers is #2 and CS2 #1 in top sellers again.

Helldivers 2 only appears now top 1 in "Steam Weekly Global Top Sellers" which as its name says instead of being real time is for the last week.

Not sure which updates first.

Steam App showing Helldivers number 1 in both.

Nevertheless CS2 is free to play so still impressive from HD2 after a month.

Best way to beat the new mode in defending the three silos is using em's stategem and Tesla towers around the bombs to protect them just an FYI.

I really dislike the new mode, it's just not fun at all. I hope this is temporary, because to me it's a bloody chore.

95% reduction of arc damage on the armours looks good with the new arc weapons as well. I've got over 2k credits and will spend on this, but haven't even started on the previous premium warbond yet still working on the last parts of the free one.

In my case, I find any mission that's about sticking in one place to kill bugs or bots to be very boring, and this is just another of those.

Also, TIL that you can kill a Hulk with a single railgun shot. 🎉

Very true. Lol I see once you switch railgun mode now you got the hang of it.

I never managed it, but apparently if you shoot the red "head" in its front it explodes, which is cool. I do love killing those biped idiots and the armoured smaller guys.
