Helldivers 2 has been released for over a year and millions of players have experienced a lot. A new Xbox diver is now showing the veterans his method for dealing with the Termites and shocking them in the process.
What kind of approach is this? The Xbox diver Bannerbord has shown the brave Helldivers on Reddit how he deals with the bugs as a new player, who has only been playing on Xbox since the game launched. The war against the bugs is still raging in the galaxy of Helldivers 2, which received a major update with the last expansion.
Instead of shooting the bugs like ordinary soldiers from Over-Earth with firearms, airstrikes, grenades, or other normal weapons, the recruit chooses a different path.
In a video on Reddit, he shows how he armed with a flag jumps on the back of bugs and forcefully drives the Over-Earth flag into their bodies. Those who want to see this shocking way of fighting can find the video here:
Shocked veterans can’t believe it
How are players reacting to the new method? The players of Helldivers 2 are shocked by the actions of the new recruit. For over a year, the Helldivers have honorably fought against the bugs. That a new recruit is now resorting to such barbaric methods causes outrage. Many veterans, however, also celebrate the player’s courage. On Reddit, the veterans write:
- Worldly-Inevitable82: “This is one of the most glorious expressions of patriotism I’ve ever seen.”
- pabloleon: “[…] You are not only right, Helldiver, you are democratically right, and that is the best kind of right o7.”
- Common_Vagrant: “I am so proud of these new recruits.”
- Fun_Elk_4949: “I like your style and enthusiasm. If this works, I want to know.”
Additionally, DoeJrPuck shows a drawn picture on Reddit that depicts the command center of Over-Earth, where the officers are shocked by the operation.
How is the war against the bugs going? With the new expansion, the Helldivers should take the war to the home worlds of the bugs. The enemies are showing themselves to be stubborn. The Helldivers’ campaign against the Termites is currently in its second phase.
Brave soldiers must explore a home world of the bugs while defending another planet as an operational base. The researchers from Over-Earth hope to find new effective methods against the Termites this way.
That the new recruits are already resorting to such democratic means to bring the guided democracy to the planets of the Termites shows that even Xbox divers already know how the game works.
