Guys, this is why they released the exosuit just before this order, gave us time to test it and for them to balance it, we HAVE to use them. We're supposed to for this. This isn't other missions and it's gonna require a team of 4 with suits. I'll jump on in an hour or so and makesure my team has then loaded in before we drop. I for one an excited for the level of difficulty as I've noticed after a certain level of skill the bug missions are just to easy and the only problem with them is ammo limitations.
They really need to give the mech more ammo like they did when we got it for free. I'll take lowered damage for ammo any day.
We need like a backpack that can either supply the mech or give us a "melee" for it in the form of a stomp because once it's out of ammo it's just usless(I use it on bots to draw fire after it's ammo is spent and it's a winning strategy)
Thanks for the content Swany, I'd love to be participating in this story arc as Private Democracy Dispenser of the SES Distributor of Democracy, however my super solid state drive is currently full of other fraudulent games that sold more copies than it's infrastructure could support on launch day, and that are absolute waste of potential/pipe dreams like star citizen. I wish all you helldivers the best of luck in summoning the illuminate into tactical hellbomb barrage range with this bait major order. I will rejoin the fight when Cadet Alexus of the SES Bringer of Balance has been executed for treason and or repurposed as coffee to creamer ratio balance director.
I was on my super destroyer the other night and one of the officers on my ship said something along the lines of "With the use of this dark fluid, we can finally punch a permanent hole in Meridian, thanks to the leftover dark fluid we found from the illuminates...good thing they're all dead, haha..."
yup everyone on the ship has 3 new voice lines (each) related to this major order. im certain this this will bring the illuminate.
whats gonna happen is either we fail this order, the super colony goes insane and we get hive lords intoduced. OR... OR we crack the planet like Cadia, the implosion and dark liquid creates a blackhole and now we have the Illuminate coming back but theyll also have to fight the bugs at the breach.
Not dead disarmed and banished from the galaxy
The second I saw the word Illuminate in the major order text I knew this would lead to them being added.
Our issue was level 4 testing, 80 birds appeared in the air as you tried to extract. No nest, just spawned and endless waves. This mission from start to finish doesn't let up!
in ground you may see huge holes, this is from birds fly, they are endless, yes
@suslik1940 I noticed those. Was hoping(dreading) the giant worms being a thing. Not sure what's worse. New giant enemies or infinite birds with the laser shotgun. XD
I was on a level 1 mission just to see what the new mo is but 100 shriekers spawned and came out of nowhere, no nest, no nothing and I failed to extract
Me and my friend also played on level 4 and completed it
It spawned like hundreds of shriekers at us and we couldn't even extract because of that.
@@thatguyjosh28 WAIT ON TRIVIAL?!
Tips for anyone struggling on the new mission:
• Crowd control and fast-response AT is key
• Some stratagems/weapons I would personally recommend are:
- Orbital/mortar EMS
- Gas strike
- Gatling sentry
- Flamethrowers
- Incendiary or stun grenades
- EAT/RR
- Railcannon or eagle rocket pods
• The drill does take friendly fire so be careful with any eagles or orbitals you use
• The dark fluid container (backpack) can be used as a jump pack, but I’ve heard it will explode if used too many times
I’m Lvl 126 and have beat the mission several times now on Helldive with various groups of randoms. If I can do it with randoms, then so can you. Happy diving everyone! :)
Now, say that to a level 10 heldiver playing on trivial
@@locmorningstar2740Definitely remind them to be a team player and not try solo
Oh yeah, I beat most of the missions too, just with 0 reinforcements left, and almost no time left
Me and my buddies have not been able to extract from it at all on any difficulty. We can complete the objectives but the moment the shreikers come out we just get shredded immediately. One time I wasn't able to get past the animation of coming out the pod before I was killed
@@deathmachine200 maybe I just play this game too much but shriekers aren’t too much of a problem for me. Especially if you use shield back pack or jump pack, you can dodge them as long as you keep moving at all times. They’ll almost always miss you as long as you’re not going too slow or strafe into them. It definitely is a challenge though, don’t get me wrong.
If you guys missed it, the darkfluid backpack acts as a jetpack just better. Flighs higher and recharges faster. Personally, i think it should be the default jetpack
It also damages anything around you when you use it
Finally someone that aware of its true power! 💥💥🚀💥💥
I heard it explodes if used too much
Yeah, kills nearby players like crazy
Oh really? I definitely didn’t know this, I kept thinking I had to take it somewhere lmao
I like that the devs are providing hints in status reports on places like Heeth that we should focus on it to keep a status boon of the training facility.
I didn't realize the new mission was so damn hard. Loaded up on a level 8 dark fluid mission expecting a decent challenge, was met with Hellmire-level traumatic experiences.
We successfully completed our mission, but we barely extracted with our lives.
Liberty guide you, Helldivers.
level 5, we had bile spewers, having 8 bodies lying around the spawn of the bugs right next to the objective blocking shots made the mission impossible
@@ShadwRavn dude it's a rough mission I play on 7 and I barely survive it
@@FrostyFrodo i went down to level 3. It s the best difficulty for fun personally.
You must be strong if you can play on 7.
I already find normal level 7 missions stressful, but after playing 2 level 5 ones of the event I knew I couldn’t continue
I seriously dont get why people see this as super hard its like any normal defense / exterminate mission in my expierience, people saying its imposible and i havent had a run where me and my team of randos have lost a drill, didnt even know they could break until now (diff 9) if you are playing with bile spewers in your map maybe thats why? Just reroll for a map without them cuz they ruin all missions
@@ezoni8438 I think it's all the team you're on if I'm honest.
First time I dropped we all managed to escape on level 8, mission completed. It was hard but we made it. Next 3 drops on 7 we all died, everyone got separated and tried to fight on their own. This mission is forcing us to work together and if we don't, well we usually get rekt
The dark fluid mission is borderline impossible, though. I don't mind a harder mission and I don't mind suicide missions with tons of shriekers and stuff, but man, this is just plain bullshit. Bugs spawning below the drill, mission objectives floating in the air and way too many bugs even on trivial difficulty? I call bullshit on that one.
Get better bud
@@Pxfxctionratio
I mean it is a super colony so…..
@@Pxfxction I've been playing on helldive almost exclusively, so this is most definitely not a skill issue lmao
Missions broken. Even on Trivial it gets ridiculous. Shriekers blot the skies when you set up the drill.
New major order is going to result in a mini black hole where meridia is!!!
These are unproven lies! Report to your democracy officer immediately!
And then the illuminates show up to close it lmfao
Obviously
Yeah maybe the illuminate will come back throu-THIS MESSAGE HAS BEEN REDACTED BY THE MINISTRY OF TRUTH. DO NOT BELIEVE THESE DISSIDENT RUMORS. THE ILLUMINATE ARE EXTINCT. WE SAY AGAIN, THE ILLUMINATE ARE EXTINCT.
Good luck finding Meridia on the space map tho
we had 3 on helldive, each of us killed ~1000 and narrowly completed the mission with 2 seconds left - disgraceful conduct it said 😢
Xfil w a fluid pack
You see, the reason why you three were disgraceful is because
@@behlockaetheking7062 WUT? REALLY? I tried everything, we're supposed to extract the fluid pack?
Ngl, that thumbnail armor with white markings instead of yellow goes hard
Real
Fuck yeah dude, I was thinking the same thing.
That is undemocratic.
Anyone else completing the new mission just to be shown only 1/2 objectives completed. Mission still gets marked as completed 🤷🏻♂️
Yes
yeah, we deployed all three drills and the objective showed as incomplete at the end of the mission
Yup did a dark fluid mission earlier and it was only showing that the team did 1 of two objectives
Yeah, it's bugged lol
And, I may have discovered a fix to the bug breaches directly on the drills.
And while only playing 3 of these missions so far...I think this will work to get the breaches to spawn further away.
When you insert the dark fluid into the drill, stay right next to the drill until the breach happens.
During the 2nd mission we did, i was running around the drill, directly on it essentially, and when the breach happened, they were significantly further, about 40 meters away.
This was while we were on the 2nd drill of the mission, the first drill took 20 minutes and all but 2 reinforcements.
But we were able to get through the second drill on the first shot. And then i was right next to it on the third drill and well...
Sure as shit the same thing happened, both breaches were approximately 40 meters away. And we were able to finish on the first shot.
During the third mission, thats when i realized that i was standing/running super close to the drill. So i did the same thing on all 3 drills. And it worked great.
The second drill took us two tries. There was a breach that came within 10 meters, but we defened it very well, we had a straifing run destroy the drill with about 5% remaining on the bar.
Sad face 😂😂, anyway, give it a try. Hopefully it works, let me know if it does.
@@Whiskey5_ Glad that worked for you, but standing next to the drill has just resulted in the breach popping up under my feet and eating bug legs and bullets. I'm really hoping that if that's unintended behavior that AH will fix that. I've liked everything else, but the chance that you just get the breach on the drill making that go completely useless doesn't feel like we failed to defend, just didn't get to try at all.
The Ability to Destroy a Planet is Insignificant to the Power of the Force
I dont mind a mission being difficult, if its FAIR. With the current balancing and spawning, this event just shows off the problem.
It's a super colony, this is how it should be lmao, endless spawns upon spawns upon spawns
It is fair you are perfectly able to complete the objective extracting is not the objective
@@Gee-bg2rv this game is sht because fanboy like you lmao!
Tbh I don’t mind the constant spawning. HOWEVER, when they fucking spawn right below the goddam drill and a fucking bile spewer spawns on top of it which then is totally aggroed to the drill then it becomes absolute BULLSHIT. I wouldn’t have a problem with constant spawning if they spawned outside the drill area so we have a chance to fight them off.
Exactly it's so unfair I dont care what people say it's still a game and it needs to be finish able
I think its one of two things, Success and the Illuminate, Failure and the Hive Lords.
The new mission on Helldive was horrific. When you have a Bile Titan appear directly under the the objective it's nigh on impossible. I think there needs to be a circle around the objective where the bugs breaches don't spawn
Nobody asks for the biggest patch to happen. We want the most meaningful patch where they give our fun toys back.
At this point i would appreciate it more if they release a patch that fully fixed the game, crashes and disconnects
Even tho i already deleted the game
That is all I want, for them to buff / unnerf some weapons so we have more things that feel good to use.
@@quanlinglingdingle6122 I literally played over 150 hours and disconnected only twice (before extraction).
@@Snadzies I just want to use Assault Rifles but they are HUGELY underpowered especially on higher difficulties. When I saw that Polar Patriots Assault Rifle I thought "finally!" and it turned out to be worse than the standard one.. they said they were going to buff all Assault Rifles and the Tenderizer especially, so I hope they deliver on that. No one uses them except sometimes newbies using the Adjudicator, whilst almost anything is better..
Jesus, they weren't kidding about how crazy the spawn rates are on Meridia.
It's the most difficult mission I've done to date! Don't know if the bug breaches are broken since they literally pop up right on top of the drill, and don't even get me started on the damn shreikers!
EMS mortar, EMS Strike, arc blitzer, gatling gun, and flamethrower are your friend. COORDINATION IS KEY!!!
Also, for some reason, dropping a shield on top of the drill will stop the bug breach on the drill
Going to do some more testing, but overall, its frustrating, but at the same time, kinda fun (opinions may very)
I hate the fact people complain about the difficulty, like seriously? What do you expect from a Supercolony?
@@theasacoco and people were complaining that the game was to easy lmfao
Joel is not playin around.
This is a entire planet that has been completely all the way down to the mantle turned into a bug hive every inch EVERY SINGLE ONE no shit the spawns are going to be absurd they warned us beforehand this is a suicide mission and unless you're an absolute badass you are not extracting
@@theasacoco like the whole point of the story post-tcs is that it was impossible to retake Meridia because the entire thing was like one massive bug hole. Of course there are bugs everywhere, why else do we literally have to wipe the planet off the map?
The mission is fine except one aspect. Bugs spawning UNDER THE FUCKING DRILL. The hell were they thinking? Other than that, its fine. Its supposed to be very difficult and require teamwork
just spawn an ems on top of the drill, or an even better option is to put an ems motar
@@wicked310EMS strike, EMS mortar, and stun grenades till the end of time.
I Completed mission and it says 1 out of 2 objectives cleared and also if you pay attention, we don't get the XP from the mission, you only get the XP from the time that's left and the number of helldivers that extract so it's definitely bugged lol
What if the “Dark Fluid” isn’t black hole making stuff but actually wormhole fuel? And the moment the planet collapses, The Illuminates will come through the wormhole
even on the easiest difficulty extracting on this mission is insanely difficult, also ran into a bug were wed do the only objective on the map and it would says we missed something but we still get the medal and completed mission screen
Nothing like 4 bile titans spawning right under the new drill after killing the chargers that destroyed the last one
Idea: The Illuminate come out of the Black Hole that was once Meridia which is why they couldn’t be found for so long and they migrate to one of the currently unused quarter. Also there could be a new planet to replace Meridia called Meridia Secundus.
Thank you for your time.
The black hole theory makes sense. I mean, the fluid we are using on meridoa IS of illuminate origin in the first place
Reading the leaks doesn't make you smart
@@null_reference I didn’t read any leaks and I couldn’t care less about how smart you think I am.
Spoiler lines...................................................................................................................................................................................
................................................................................................ That is exactly what happens word for word so either you did read the leaks and you're bullshiting or you just called it like a lucky bastard
@@therandomcommenter6629 well believe it or not I got lucky, my only source of HDII info is RUclips videos like these (am an Xbox player). Not really any way I can prove it to you other than to say I didn’t read them.
very much looking forward to returning when the illuminate come
What I think he means is it's not going to be the big rebalancing patch that people could get overly hyped over and then be disappointed to not find.
I think there will be some weapon balance changes, but it will look like previous balance changes where some weapons get minor buffs, and some weapons get some buffs paired with nerfs, but there probably won't be any pure nerfs.
I don't want to say what weapons I think should get changes or will get changes, although johan did say something about ARs, so I think they might see some change even if it's not damage.
Like bro it’s a super colony planet did y’all think there wasn’t supposed to be more enemies than usual??
You’re making too much sense bro, you’re supposed to bitch and moan about it in the comment section like all the other pansy helldivers
bro (from this you can assume you are an American) the developers stated it was bugged and so many flying enemies were not supposed to happen, or have a Breach right under the drill. Secondly, enemy spawns are broken leading to, in most cases, WAY MORE enemies than there should be - on ANY planet. But that is finally getting fixed the next patch/along with the patrol rates reset to how they were in past.
Going into Meridia now really feels like diving into hell
Anyone having trouble with the shriekers at extraction, just bring along some Gatling Turrets. A buddy and I each dropped one and there was hardly anything moving in the skies when we left.
They don't want us thinking this patch is just gonna fix everything. Pretty sure that's the idea
For me it was the shriekers. The sky was so full of them I couldn’t miss while shooting in the air
wow this map looks awesome! i've never seen this density and size of bug structures on any map. i cannot wait to get in there and help destroy the supercolony.
I dropped in on trivial since I didn't have much time but I wanted to see the mission. I got destroyed lol. The objective was pretty easy though definitely more enemies than expected one trivial. The problem is when I completed the last drill, about 40 shreikers spawned (I am not exaggerating) and I could not hope to kill them all. I got swarmed instantly and killed rising out of my drop pod all 5 respawns in a row. I was definitely not expecting that lol
So i have to be on Twitter to see content updates? Just put that on the tv in the ship ffs
Played on tier 8 and 1.
8, was non-stop assault as soon as we jumped in. The bug breachs spawned under the drill, destroying it instantly even when 3 people were kiteing the rest away the bug breach would still immediately spawn under the drill.
1, was more manageable, but the end with a never-ending spawn of shreikers was impossible to extract.
From old leaks there was a hint that we can fail this MO, and if that's the case the bug divers will have to work over time
What if this is the intro for hive lords? When the planet is near being destroyed, the hive lords will be forced out of hiding or something like that
I am able to solo extreme bot missions. And yet I STRUGGLED on a level 3 dark fluid mission. Also fuck you to the dev that programmed 40 shriekers to spawn after you deposit the final fluid.
just came from a round where endless shriekers spawned once the drills were done and extraction was available, lost 20 reinforcements in blink of an eye and failed to extract :D
I ran a trivial to learn what to do beforehand, wasn’t able to extract and thought the spawns were a bit much for the difficulty but make sense for the mission. But the extraction yeah nah that’s not happening. I found some spots to sit and be unable to hit, was standing on gas strikes pumping stims killing 40-50 at a time and the skies instantly refill.
FYI.. the dark fluid backpack also works as a jump pack. Took me a while to figure that out but it comes in handy big time
Had infinite shriekers spawn on extraction. It was chaos I love it😂
The solution is a stationary shield generator with all the EMS mortars beneath it and well stationed Gatling sentries. The main problem is crowd control here, so bring a stalwart or preferably the MG Strategem. Have one team mate focus on the pump at all times and the others holding off the bugs coming from all directions.
To protect the drill use EMS Airstrikes to slow them down
sometimes the bug breach happens 3 meters away from the drill
The new mission is fun asf communication is definitely needed. Stun ems are the go to :D
Definitely stun them. Gas Bombs are fun, but team mates WILL run into them.
@@gregsteele806 like a moth to a flame
I like this mission quite a bit. This planet feels like a real Helldive compared to other major orders, and the extreme difficulty of actually deploying these drills due to how infested the planet is is kinda fun. If youre struggling, the Arc Blitzer actually might be optimal for this mission due to how many there are.
I’ve only played this mission level 8 but have yet to fail a mission. For level 8 difficulty, I have my load out like this:
Primary: Incendiary Breaker
Secondary: Redeemer
Grenade: Stun grenade
Stratagems:
-500KG bomb
-Orbital Rail cannon
-autocannon sentry
-Grenade Launcher
(And the EMS Mortar since it’s being given to Helldivers right now. With the EMS mortar being given , I sometimes switch over to incendiary impact grenades)
Armor: extra padded medium armor
Buff: Localization confusion
This load out gives me the versatility needed to carry a weak squad because of its ability to control large crowds while dealing with the bile titans and armored bile spewers. Chargers don’t give me much a problem because since the map is so small, they get caught with the crowd around corners and I just drop a 500KG on them or orbital cannon if I need to save the 500’s for incoming bile titans. I place the drills near walls or rock if it’s within range bc it seems like it minimizes the bug breaches that open on top of it but not always. I always place my turrets over looking the drill with wide visibility, and have all stratagems ready and turrets placed before placing the drill down and putting in the fluid, also I always resupply often. When I work with a good squad, we can finish the mission with 10-15 min to spare. At the very end when the shriekers come out the holes in a large swarm, I simply zig zag and dive the whole time to avoid being swiped. Sometimes they pile up on extraction so I drop a 500 KG which clears some up a short while Having more than one person with an orbital rail cannon really helps when bile titans spawn directly under the drill but the autocannon sentry MUST be placed prior or you risk them stomping on the drill immediately. Thankfully sometimes they do this weird circle walk so they can spit on it instead and that’s when you can use the 500KG to kill them or damage them enough for the sentry to finish them off. If they do the circle move, place the 500 KG away just enough to not destroy the drill. The stun grenades are for when chargers enter the picture or a ton of hive guards. When it’s a bunch of smaller enemies, the shotgun will take care of them. I reserve the grenade launcher for large crowds and bile spewers or a bunch of hive guards when there’s more than 5 together. With great positioning and movement, I have never gotten less than 300 kills with this load out, since it’s a never ending wave of bugs. The mission is bugged though so I never get all the stars. Also teammates who bring the Tesla towers are more dangerous than the bugs themselves lmao unless they place it properly. Someone with a mech also helps a lot and I see it often used on this mission which does great when defending the drills. I don’t know how it would hold up for level 9 since I reserve playing level 9 for squads I have good synergy with
I love the Rodney McKay way of ending the super colony. Bravo on the Atlantis call back!!!!
Smoke orbital on the extraction gives you time to call in the pelican. Also, there's a progress bar on the planet now.
Would be cool if we fail it then general brasch goes in on a solo mission and clutches it. Would also be cool to have made this a 6 player mission to kinda balance it.
Me and 3 friends did level 7. We were really disoriented at first we had 23 minutes left after the first drilling was done. The last 2 went a lot more smoothly. With 10 minutes to extract. We didnt know what to expect and our load outs were horrendous. We all took mines because it was the daily. It was a very difficult mission but at least we all made it out alive.
Clear Terminids with Eagle Napalm (if you have the ship upgrade, it'll deal 25% more dmg, which is huge) run 3 EMS Shock Mortars and spread them out to cover a large area (to give yourselves time to adjust combat), Oribtal Rail Cannon/Orbital Laser/Expendable Anti Tank for Bile Titans (Spear if you want the bonus of chaff clearing). Grenade Launcher isn't a bad side weapon for chaff clearing either as long as you have distance. 2 people will have dedicated heavy clearing but all 4 will have chaff clearing if organized right.
You NEED communication to play this game mode well
We had literal bug breaches spawn on top of the drill. Both times on lvl 7, the first time we got it done but didn't extract them we tried again and got 1 drill done before running out of reinforcements. Challenge is one thing, but a lvl 7 special event feels sweatier than a normal Helldive mission
The ministry of science says to use your localize confusion augment to help reduce your encounters.
New mission type you really need to be careful what stratems youre bring cause the drill takes explosive damage. First few tries i was having trouble cause they kept throwing eagles on the objective. My loadout consistent of flamethrower, disposable antitank, gas strike and 110mm rockets. Also patching bug holes is really helpful cause the bugs are constantly coming out of them and can save you lives so you dont get overwhelmed too fast. Really enjoy this gamemode and im excited to see what happens after we beat this major order.
its funny that the backpack they give you is a 300% improvement to the jetpack in cool down and distance
I use the ems strike and also a Tesla coil to defend the objectives, helps to slow them down then to try to kill them all
twinbeards response was to a comment saying that twinbeard had said the next pact won't have balancing and just being a bit of bugfixes
New mission is so fun, my bois been running it all day
There were leaks months ago that showed Meridia would be destroyed in either case, complete with the reasoning being because of dark fluid
This is the first, and hopefully only mission to this day in which shriekers can be found on trivial difficulty.
I hope one day they'll do more of those free large warbond like the standard one. 10 pages.
Psa: dark fluid pack is a improved jetpack, and to get good score on exfil, bring one on pelican
We need to organize stun strategems to hold them back from the drill. And have the rest of our strategems dedicated to deal with chargers and titans
I’ve tried 10 today only completed one since bug breaches spawn right next to drill and your own stuff can blow up the drill. The only time I did is when I got lucky and bug breaches spawned far enough away to actually use my strategemd
Lvl 9 is insane on this mission. I did it for my first time and had no idea what to do or what was going on. Enemies were just spawning in front of me. There was like 30 roaches spawning in my face
I bet the new faction spawns after the destruction of Meridia.
I'd be laughing if that's supposed to happen with completing the major order but we end up failing 😂
What I want:
1) Add paints. Can paint your armor, weapons, stratagems, and ship.
2) Add more vehicles like motorcycles.
3) Fix all the bugs. The technical ones.
4) Everything gets a buff.
5) A girlfriend
There are already vehicles in the game a Recon Car and a Light Armored Truck, they exist - and in the beginning you could cheat them into your loadout. It's just a question of when they will be released. And the new CEO promised an exchange system, what it means I don't know but it could mean Requisition or Samples can finally be used for other things. For people like me with 50k Requisition it is completely pointless to loot and obtain it.
@@DutchGuyMike Can't wait for that
@@vangavrish3797 Sorry I don't think the devs can do that for you.
It's the beginning of summer and school is out. If they want the most possible boost to sales and engagement they need to release the illuminate now
The trick to doing the helldive dark fluid missions is to kill a bike titan on top of the drill to body block the rest of the bugs
Orbital EMS and morter EMS is so clutch for this mission. I wont run this mission without it.
I really hope we can grab some of the bugs remains. They look like they’ll taste good on a grill with bbq sauce
The dark fluid backpack acts the same as a jump pack. It also insta kills any helldiver who is right next to you when you jump.
On lvl 9 bugs spawned below, around and close to the drill - all at once. Even with level 100+ players we couldn't kill them fast enough.
The npc on the ship mentions something about compressing all the E-710 warp fuel on meridia to a single point and wondering what could happen...
Wormhole to the illuminate galaxy is my guess
I played this on level 6 and it was still very difficult. Bile titans and chargers kept spawning in on the drill.
If I remember correctly twinbeard and all them said there was no time frame for the patch so it might not come out next week either? 0-0?
haven't seen any one acknowledge this yet but the dark fluid is like the jet pack and allows you to fly for a bit, also the patch is confirmed for next week?
Someone in the helldivers discord recomended using an orbital smoke on the drill so the bugs wont attack it immediately. He also said the drill takes friendly fire damage and using stun grenades and orbital stun munitions would also be useful. Quick recharge time and slows down the endless horde. I wouldnt recomend anything that does damage being used close to the drill. I think ill run orbital smoke/stun, eagle napalm, and a stalwart to keep them back. Ill also bring stun grenades and the incendiary breaker. Youre not really expected to face the bugs headon this time or even survive the mission. This is a supercolony. Youre going to get turbo rushed by bugs the best thing to do tbh is delay their advance and run when youre done with the objective. I havent been able to play all week so i am excited to try out the mission myself.
6:15 I guarantee you, its the bile spewers, reroll for a map without one and the level becomes a cakewalk, even on helldive for me
Destroying the bug holes and spore spewers makes the mission far more easily completable. Bring a support weapon and maybe a turret that can clear waves of enemies when they swarm the drill and you should be good!
"due to the number of losses on the meridian super colony the ministry of defence has had all hands on deck in weapons development. We are proud to announce that major breakthroughs in weapons technology and efficiency have been discovered. Many weapons have now been revised and improved making our progress to galactic liberation sure!"
Boom, perfect excuse for a weapon buff
I would love this major order but unfortunately I went through a run where upon initiating the drill, the breach would occur directly under it. It prevented us from unloading anything on the breach because we would destroy the drill ourselves. Then sometimes a bile titan or charger would spawn out of it and just obliterate the thing anyway. Additionally upon finishing the mission successfully the one time where that didn't happen, the game treated it as though we didn't succeed the mission at the reward screen even though it registered the success at the operation screen. Otherwise though its a fun mission, and the shriekers at the end go crazy
One word for those struggling on the new mission: Stun.
1. Kill the bug holes
2. Delete the spore towers
3. Kite existing enemies away from the drill while preparing yourselves
4. Drop an eagle smoke, shield generator, resupply, and orbital EMS literally on top of the drill, then start it
5. Player 1 literally just permanently stuns everything on the drill. Hold your stun until it explodes in your hand, wait a couple seconds, then do it again. Resupply as needed. Bile spew is stopped by the shield, so the only thing that can destroy it now is bile titan legs, so…
6. Player 2 is on crowd control for players 3 and 4, NOT THE DRILL. Swap roles or kick if they shoot even remotely close to the drill. Players 3 and 4 get recoilless rifles so they can plow through bile titans with team reloads.
Haven’t figured out a great strategy for the 50-80 flying monsters that infinitely swarm you during extract. I figure that’s just the cost of liberty.
Thing is yes mission is hard but in my experience most People trow K bomb on it and they get suprise how is drill destoryed 🤣🤣🤣
My strat for the ending ended up being gattling turrets followed with Blitzer spam as soon as any got close, and using the mech if I had it off Cooldown to wipe out anything ground based for my teammates to focus the skies.
The mission is a nightmare, a few Helldivers and me tried to do the mission but we failed. Mainly cuz the miner tool was always with bug breech's droping chargers and bile titan's non stop... Hopefully we end up completing this mayor order!
Next after blowing up a planet eventually maybe there will be a planet illuminates feel other wise because of resources or something
Tip call in the drill high up so bugs can’t hurt it
Tried doing dark fluid mission on Trivial. Deploying the fluid was easy enough, using EMS mortars and stun grenades to stun the bugs for the minute that the drill needs, but the Shriekers on evac are just obscene. Haven't even tried it on a higher difficulty.
I have done the mission on helldive with my friend and trust me, ems is THE GOAT.
One thing once you pick up the dark fluid you can use it as a jet pack... For democracy brothers for democracy
Just got the game today on my birthday, the first people I play with are really nice and helped me complete my first mission. Stonebread, A-A-RON and mikiitirou thank you
Hey mate if you need Player that play this game i am your guy
would be great if I could play without crashes or getting swarmed at from minute 1 until and on extraction!
The dark fluid is extremely difficult even on Trivial difficulty. I tried it on Trivial like four times. I deployed all of the fluid every time, only managed to extract once due to the swarms that pop up once you deployed all the fluid
Imagine if we *could* fail on Meridia. They would have to have the Terminids take over more worlds and get closer to Super Earth, plus the use of Dark fluid would still end up calling in the Illuminate. As much 'fun' as that sounds like, that also sounds like a set up to turn the game into some 'dark future' where Super Earth is conquered and who knows what else would happen from there.
Imagine no more strats due to no more resources. Imagine no new weapons because all weapon research facilities had been destroyed. FUN.
there are two outcomes to this major order, there are already leaks of what happens if we fail :D
I haven't been able to complete the new mission a single time
Focus on bugholes first to reduce spawn pop.
Also, grenade launcher backpack combo.
The stupid drone can't close bugholes . But a GL can... And with 80 spare grenades on your back, there's not gonna be much that can stay in your way for long.
3 direct hits kills brood commander. 2 hit kill on spewer kill if landed on booty.
1 shot for everything smaller except the hive guards but if you're rocking the senator, hive guards will die with a follow up shot placed on the head.
Bile titans I recommend EAT for at least half the crew. Don't just call it down when you need it. Call it every time it cools down and break the container so you can find them on the mini map.
Wait til it tries to spit, get distance, pop it's belly with GL then 1 shot EAT to the face. Half it's health reservoir is in its sack as well as it's ability to spit. Busting this will eliminate range attack and make it much weaker.
on helldive they spawn on top of the drill and destroy it in seconds, its physically impossible, but i have found that less spawn when theres less people alive
