Are we the Baddies in Helldivers 2?

1.5 mil personnel and 1 Billion a day to operate?! For Democracy!! Yes!!

1B SC per day divided by 50k players = 20k SC per player.

If the DSS is allegedly capable of nuking a small moon, that tells me one thing… The stratagems it’ll let us use have a yes-sized blast radius

[@Jackalmercenary-t7y]

“What’s the radius on this bitch?” “YES”

[@thomasalbers6851]

Helldiver looking at the DSS: What’s the blast radius of new stratagems? Democratic officer: *YES*

[@Snake-d6i]

i think this might be our official first illuminate tease, in the map it showed 3 faction symbol, 1 bot and 2 terminids, the second terminid one was towards the bottom which have had illuminate sightings, and the missing colonists could be related to the illuminate. i could also just be overthinking it

[@Seeeyog]

It could be the gloom terminids!

[@Snake-d6i]

@ possibly, but i think its too far south to be actually terminids, the sectors there dont appear to be terminid controlled, but are very close to some, maybe its just they’ll expand that way soon

[@Certified500kgBomb]

I have a theory that they edited because they originally were gonna release the illuminate early but wanted to delay it

The US Military has a daily operational cost of $2.4 Billion a day. I think a floating space city would have a higher operational cost.

[@dabackroomssmiller3187]

Lets say that 1 super credit worht 10 dollar

[@waynee6878]

How expensive are 1000 supercredits right now in US$? As there is no official exchange rate, this has to do it for now 😅

[@lazysloth9060]

Then with the exchange rate of 1000 supercredits to ~10 USD. That means the USD value of daily operational cost of the DSS is only 10 million a day, including sustaining 1.5 million highly qualified occupants. That's a steal of a deal to Earthlings! Now that is Democracy!

[@lazysloth9060]

@@dabackroomssmiller3187 But 1000 Super Credits is literally worth $9.99 USD in game...

[@ghostlyswat12]

Tbf you could argue that because of how super earths government works Perhaps stuff is a lot cheaper that it would normally be compared to us Say ppl in the army get paid right But in hd2 exactly how much is a army person getting paid There’s a million of them on the station of course some might be civilians cooks cleaners etc Perhaps army ppl get paid a lot less compared to us One could also say that maybe there currency is worth more than ours You could also say maybe they don’t have high inflation like we do due to them having like 1000+ colonised planets

[@friendlyfire3412]

I like how everyone is happy about it and first 2 days almost every single player hated it.

[@Pwilly1984]

😂 right. But eagle storm is freaking amazing tho at least 👌

There’s already a DSS submenu on the mission table, which I don’t remember being there

Okay but why are there three faction symbols on the galactic map? They both show Terminids but there are no Terminids in the place of that symbol. There is literally NOTHING there. Illuminates are getting teased, or this is some fuck-up on the devs’ part

No. Now please contact your local democratic officer for hate thoughts.

Truly you need to step outside the MSM propaganda bubble. The current regime in power is the fascist Super Earth Managed "Democracy". How many primary votes did the ho get to be on the ballot? Oh, that's right, ZERO. There's your managed democracy in action right in your face for all to see. Wake up.
