Most intriguing have been the developer’s ongoing reside service storytelling efforts, which have now taken the type of flying bugs- however don’t let any of the Tremendous Earth devoted hear you say that.
Flying variants of Helldivers 2’s bugs (or Terminids) have all of the sudden began showing within the recreation, with many sharing clips of the identical on Reddit and elsewhere on social media.

True to kind, the studio has snuck within the shock addition of a brand new enemy kind right here, and used it as a chance to proceed telling the sport’s ongoing story.

I’ve heard rumors of flying bugs in @helldivers2. I need to formally refute such preposterous claims.
Everybody is aware of that “Bugs cannot fly”.
And I am not alone in considering this. The Ministry of Reality agrees that that is propaganda from bug sympathizers that need to brainwash…
