Gamers can now contribute to planet liberation and have interaction with the Galactic Conflict once more,” it tweeted.
When you’re questioning how that is being rationalised lore-wise, Arrowhead’s informed gamers: “Excessive Command wish to inform all personnel that nothing out of the atypical has occurred previously 24 hours. The struggle for Managed Democracy has continued in an inspiring—however totally anticipated—method.

Cease what you are doing! You heard me, Helldivers 2 gamers, stop killing s**t for those who’ve not finished so already. Arrowhead’s introduced your complete Galactic Conflict to a halt for a bit, in order that it might probably repair a problem that it thinks “could have detrimental results on the struggle mechanic sooner or later”.
Don’t be concerned about these “reasonably feeble younger adults” you have been busy making an attempt to avoid wasting, they have been gently pushed out of hurt’s manner.
“Immediately we up to date our backend and we’ve encountered an error that has effects on planet liberation charges, inflicting them to skyrocket,” Arrowhead defined in a put up about this suspension of bug and bot battling, “Whereas we all know that is enjoyable, we additionally know that it’s breaking the Galactic Conflict mechanic itself. Briefly, that is harming the sport expertise and could have detrimental results on the struggle mechanic sooner or later.
“Now we have made the choice to pause the Galactic Conflict briefly till that is mounted. We’re already beginning the method, however we don’t but have an ETA for this repair. You’ll nonetheless have the ability to play Helldivers 2, however you can not make any contributions to liberating planets or advancing the Conflict.
“That is our mistake and we personal it,” the studio added, “We’re not going to revert any of the harm finished by this error, nevertheless, so your main order victory remains to be safe.”
So, that may clarify how Bekvam III fell again underneath enemy management so quickly the opposite day – one thing gamers have flagged as feeling a bit harsh. As of writing, there do not look to have been any additional updates as to when issues’ll be again to regular.
Not that it issues to Tremendous Earthers. Judging by the landslide of memes evaluating this to World Conflict 1’s christmas truce, however this time with divers, automatons, terminids, and Illuminate assembly within the no man’s land of planets they can not make any progress on proper now, the propaganda division is not going to have its work minimize out for it.
