Helldivers 2 Players Baffled by Impossibly Hard New Missions, But Effective Strategies Emerge
-
Helldivers 2's new defense missions spawn endless waves of enemies that seem impossibly difficult, leading players to think they are bugged.
-
The missions spawn dropships full of dozens of enemies every 15-30 seconds, overwhelming even well-equipped teams.
-
Two effective strategies involve either shooting down dropships with Recoilless Rifles or blinding/slowing enemies with smoke and EMS weapons.
-
Machine gun and Gatling gun turrets can help defend scientists and deal with leaks in defenses.
-
The developer Arrowhead will hopefully patch the overtuned missions soon, but these strategies improve success chances for now.
