Is the Story Progress in Helldivers 2 Too Slow?

For the first time in a while, the current Major Order stands out from all of the recent ones. Even though the players managed to unlock a new Stratagem in the last MO, they’ve started getting tired of the similar missions, alternating between the two fronts. Some Helldivers 2 players now claim that the developments and the story progress aren’t fast enough.

Helldivers Claim There Hasn’t Been Much Story Progress

The struggle with the current Major Order made some players revisit what they’ve been doing for the last couple of months. Now, we’d like to point out that the devs probably had some other plans that were foiled by the Escalation of Freedom update and the events that followed it.

The players were quite understanding and probably too burnt-out, to make another issue out of lack of story progress during that period. However, the minute the latest update dropped in Helldivers 2, players started asking for even more fixes, and, now, for some palpable progress in the Galactic War.

One player, ursa_rosa, noted: “For the past few months literally every Major Order has been “liberate/defend these planets” with a few rewards for some of the Major Orders at the end. The last unique Major Order was the the whole thing with the children on Vernen Wells and the mines on Marfark. and that was in June! It’s almost the end of September now. And, I’m just really hoping some unique Major Orders pick up soon”.

Players Are Optimistic for the Future of Helldivers 2

We completely sympathize with the impatient players. But, still, the Helldivers 2 community should show some mercy to the hard-working developers while they figure out how to progress the story. After all, they’ve worked tirelessly to give the players exactly what they asked for. We are sure they’ll continue doing that.

BLAHBLAHneeb explained: “It’s hard for the devs to push Major Orders when they had to fix the overall balance complaints and continue to fix high-priority bugs. Now as the game gets in a better state, they’ll allocate more dev time to fun stuff”

Many players noted how they thought something big was coming. Internal_Ad_4586 stated: “I think they’re gonna pull out something epic by the time this 60-day plan concludes. There’s that Interstellar Battle Station that’s still ‘under construction’, rumors of clans/platoons, the Illuminate, etc”.

Honestly, we are glad to see the Helldivers 2 community bounced right back to its former glory. Of course, all of us Helldivers wish for more new content, but let’s be patient and let the devs cook. They seem to have finally found the correct recipe. For Managed Democracy and Super Earth.
