Game Master Joel has posed a tough challenge for you in Helldivers 2, but there are problems in the galactic war.
In Helldivers 2, there is currently a general order with an seemingly unsolvable task for the brave fighters of the Over-Earth: You need to free a total of 5 planets from bugs within 3 days. Two days have already passed, and you have less than 24 hours left.
Now, the community manager “Baskinator” has forwarded a message from Game Master Joel to the players. He explains that there is currently a bug with spreading freedom.
What kind of bug is it? The bug appears to be a game error that prevents the progress of conquering planets from being recorded correctly. In Joel’s message on the official Discord server of Helldivers 2, it says:
Helldivers! We know that there is a problem with the galactic war that does not correctly recognize your effective spreading of freedom. We are investigating the issue under high pressure and will keep you updated as soon as we have understood the problem and can provide you with a solution. Thank you for your patience while we eliminate some software bugs.

So it is quite possible that the planets you need to free for the general order would have significantly more progress if it weren’t for the bug.
What will happen next with the general order? There is currently no official statement from the developers regarding how the general order will proceed.
Whether the developers will extend the time you have to successfully complete the order is not yet known.
Does the bug also affect the personal order? No, according to current information, the error only affects the freeing of the planets.
In the personal order you need to complete by March 21, you are to achieve 10 kills with the one-time anti-tank weapon. This should therefore not be affected by the bug.
Not only bugs, but also crashes are currently a problem
What is the situation with the crashes? As some players report on social networks like Reddit, there can currently be crashes in Helldivers 2.
The developers have also stated on the Discord server of the shooter that they are aware of the issues and are already working on a solution.
Some players suspect that the crashes might be related to the ARC-3 Bow Launcher. This is a support weapon that fires lightning at your enemies.
The Bow Launcher is currently competing with various weapons like the Railgun for a place in the strongest builds: Helldivers 2: Best Loadout – The strongest setup to survive as a solo player
