The current Helldivers 2 Major Order has seen players liberate and defend the new X-45 jungle planet. Since the event began the planet has been under the control of Super Earth and it seemed as though the win was inevitable. Now, victory looks to be threatened as a new attack by the Automatons could divert attention away and lead to the robot taking back control.
U/DreamToBeLazy took to Reddit to share a new Strategic Alert that has appeared in the game, stating that “The Automatons have launched a surprise attack on Aesir Pass. If it falls, it will jeopardize efforts to rescue our position in the Ymir Sector.”
The current Helldivers 2 Major Order has seen players liberate the new X-45 jungle planet and it has remained 100% in the control of Super Earth since the event began, with the community successfully defending the surrounding planets to prevent the Automatons from attacking it.
This is causing some concern among players, as diverting too much attention away from the Ymir Sector could lead to the planets falling under the control of the robot army, with u/Sharpystar saying “Is it just me, or is the situation looking pretty grim? We are barely making even on Meissa, Aesir Pass requires 6.7%/h to defend and Vega Bay is basically lost already which means X-45 could get attacked as well 10 hours from now.”
With X-45 being under Super Earth’s control throughout the Major Order, it seemed as though this was set to be the easiest Helldivers 2 Major Order so far as players had to do very little work to maintain it. But, with Aesir Pass now being under attack, it could soon turn into another failed Major Order. Arrowhead Game Studios could be doing this to allow players to complete missions on X-45. The new jungle biome was only briefly accessible for Automaton players before it became liberated so now the new biome is only available when playing Terminid missions.
This Major Order has taken an unexpected turn, but the developers always know how to keep players on their toes.
