Helldivers 2 gamers are purported to be specializing in wiping out the Jet Brigade proper now, however it appears to be like like some fairly ominous Illuminatey goings on have been a reasonably large distraction from the bots during the last 12 hours or so.
Because the order was given by Arrowhead to go struggle the Automatons, Helldivers gamers have noticed quite a few bizarre goings-on that they reckon could possibly be the prelude to one thing massive happenining with the Illuminate, the sport’s latest faction which has been fairly quiet because it took a licking a couple of MOs in the past. That defeat delivered to an finish the preliminary Illuminate battle after the squids made their debut final final yr, however it appears to be like like half two could possibly be coming quickly.
So, what’s been occurring? Effectively, to start with, the warp hyperlinks to Estanu and Crimsica from Meridia – , the planet that was changed into a giant purple again gap final yr, and was lengthy believed by gamers to be the purpose the Illuminate would make their grand Galactic Struggle entrance – has been minimize off.
Cool, cool. I am certain that is not probably an indication of something unhealthy, and er, oh. The Illuminate additionally apparently fully disappeared from the in-game map for a little bit bit.
Across the identical time that occurred, gamers are reporting that the rumblings proven by a “spacetime fluctuation indicator” that presently pops up over the map on occasion are seeming stronger than they beforehand had been. That indicator’s purple by the best way, the identical color because the Meridia black gap and the Illuminate sections of the map.
The excellent news is that the Illuminate are actually exhibiting up on the map once more in regular vogue, however gamers are understandably sppoked and satisfied that one thing like one other massive Illuminate invasion could possibly be coming over the weekend or subsequent week.
We’ll should see, however for now, it is actually stopped everybody from asking about Arrowhead’s long-term plans for the sport now Johan Pilestedt’s on sabbatical.
