Arrowhead Games Studio put up a new Major Order in\u00a0Helldivers 2<\/em>, calling for the extermination of two billion Terminids as we went into the weekend. The Major Order gave players six days to complete it, but the\u00a0Helldivers 2<\/em>\u00a0community crushed it in under 12 hours.<\/p>
These Major Orders vary in how long they generally take to complete, and this is one of the longer ones. Arrowhead wanted to give players plenty of time to crush two billion Terminids, giving them until\u00a0Tuesday, April 23<\/strong>. Rather than waiting for the weekend to start though, the Major Order has already been cleared, and now the Helldivers 2<\/a> <\/em>community has been left waiting for the next big challenge\u2014likely ready to crush it again.<\/p>
These Major Orders went out<\/a> following a continual assault against the Automatons faction. Over the past few weeks, many of the previous Major Orders have focused on the Automatons; the mechanical enemies taking up the western part of the galaxy in\u00a0Helldivers 2<\/em>. There was even a point where the wider community had removed them entirely before they made a shock counterassault days later. Now, refocusing back on the Terminid threat, the community crushed its orders in what is likely a record time.<\/p>
If that is the case, the Terminids are off the board longer than the Automatons were. The Automatons were eliminated entirely<\/a> from\u00a0Helldivers 2<\/em>\u00a0for only two days, which disappointed many fans who might have enjoyed seeing them gone for longer. It made ‘totally’ removing the Automatons feel like a smaller achievement than it was. It would be fun to remove the Terminids for a new threat if a new faction rose to fight against Super Earth.<\/p>
