Helldivers 2 Reveals New Major Order, Forces Players to Make a Decisive Choice

A new major order in Helldivers 2 has just been announced, and it forces players to make a choice between liberating Choohe or Penta from the Automaton threat. This announcement follows the previous one, which garnered a lot of attention in the Helldivers 2 community, and fans discerned it to be the new Helldivers 2 stratagems teaser.

Major orders in Helldivers 2 are the main objectives of the game. They are time-constrained events that serve as a community goal to make progress in the Second Galactic War. Once completed, Major orders give out prizes to players, such as the best weapons found in Helldivers 2.

Helldivers 2 recently revealed the new major order via Twitter, which will force players to choose between liberating Choohe or Penta in the Lacaille Sector, both of which are under Automaton occupation and have fallen during the Enduring Bulwark Operation. Depending on the players' choice, players will receive either the MD-17 Anti-Tank Mines or the RL-77 Airburst Rocket Launcher, with the former being far better at winning defensive Helldivers 2 campaigns.

Mines are a type of equipment that favors strategic thinking. They allow players to control the battlefield through area denial, especially against armored units such as these. On the other hand, the Airburst Rocket Launcher is a straightforward weapon that provides a lot of firepower immediately. It shines the best when used from long-range, against Terminid charges. For fans of pure firepower, such as that offered by the best flamethrower build in Helldivers 2, it's the right choice.

Helldivers 2 fans are not to be underestimated, however. After all, they have recently completed an impossible Helldivers 2major order, by defending 10 planets at once, a feat not accomplished since the game launched. And, with the morale boost, many are now calling for both planets to be liberated to eliminate the need to choose. However, rewards are only received upon completing major orders, not by merely participating in
