Hello, illuminate invaded planets?

[Green Mohawk Derg]

Excuse me, how are we supposed to complete the order if there are no invasions?

[Akameka]

we're not supposed to
Also MO kinda failed 1 day before its end as the planet was doomed.

I mean, we weren't even given a chance. I am really cross about it. If we're meant to fail it, just do it instead of MO and don't make us waste time for a week, the pace of plot is glacial and I am really getting bored because of it

In early months we had events weekly, now every week is "defend X planets while we sit on our bottoms and code a few bugfixes"

The update for me was 18 GB, if this doesn't mean that we are getting the 2nd wave of illuminate units I may just uninstall the game and wait a few months for something interesting to happen

pls understand, writing narrative is very hard work without railroading, not like an ai could do a better job than a sw*de.

I'd take ♥♥♥♥♥♥ writing over weeks of nothing

New base defence site, something like the gas missions, city mission against robots...

...come on, anything...

what was that? i cant hear you over the sound of valentine's day holidays. and after that there is the spring holidays.

if notch, fatshart and arrowass have taught me anything its that expecting a reasonable update schedule from swedes is a fool's errand.
but we are the idiots condoning this undead service game with our wallets, so there is that ¯\_(⊙︿⊙)_/¯

I think Joel is going to start the last 2 illuminate invasions at the final hours so we'll fight them like hell

We were given a chance but a lot of players dove on the bug front instead and we lost a couple of invasions which resulted in the outcome we have now. Not the dev's fault, its the community at fault here

correction: more than a couple of invasions

We weren't "Supposed to fail", we failed two defense missions at 99%, and a good few more at less. We could have succeeded, but just not enough people defended in time, in addition to whatever the frick was going on with sending the DSS to peaceful planets for 4 hours repeatedly. We simply failed, it is on us, not Joel, not the narrative, not railroading, we just suck at the strategic game.

always winning is boring. we take a hit just to make things more interesting when it comes to the narrative. also the playstation outage probably ♥♥♥♥♥♥ with their plans

You've been given a chance, you're just not keeping track. You had to stop the Illuminati from energizing the wormhole. We failed.

Somehow... The automatons returned

Them coming back was totally fine and expected. Them coming back and insta taking over like two whole sectors was pretty BS tho

It'd be the equivalent of waking up one morning and finding out that not only are the Aztecs back but they also took over the entire east coast of the US with no resistance all within a span of like a hour

Within 3 months of D-Day the allies regained control over France. This was 1944. In whatever year helldivers 2 is set in it would be a lot easier and on a much bigger scale to do this in a shorter time frame.

We failed like several defenses this MO. wym "where's the illuminate invasions"
