Haha, okay, so… where do we start? Good news or bad news—ever notice that’s like the standard intro when things get dicey? Anyway, the cheerful bit first: Helldivers 2 pulled off a crazy victory by, and I kid you not, taking out over two billion Illuminate critters. But, hold your applause, ’cause Eagleopolis? Yep, it still bit the dust.
It’s like, even with the biggest horde of Helldivers since last spring, we couldn’t keep one of Super Earth’s Mega Cities from crumbling. But hey, no tears—grab your SEAF pal, maybe watch someone ride a Leviathan wave. Trust me, works better than ice cream.
And by the way, remember when the Illuminate crash-landed on our turf and we had that “Heart of Democracy” update? We had this ambitious goal, you know, turning those bad guys into history—2.5 billion of ’em, actually. Felt pretty sweet. But Arrowhead hits us with a reality check: “Yeah, Eagleopolis, that long-time bastion of Managed Democracy? It’s toast.” The old shopping centers now look more like eerie, foreboding postcards. Gulp.
So that’s one Mega City down. But the battle’s far from over—Super Earth’s still kicking. People are rallying, trying to push back the Illuminate fleet like it’s some epic movie scene. Meanwhile, Arrowhead’s briefing wasn’t exactly a pep talk: “Illuminate’s still got a fighting force at 49%. Six Mega Cities are still standing, folks. Helldivers and SEAF must keep grinding, night and day. Otherwise, they’ll turn into history like Eagleopolis. And that’s a one-way ticket, no take-backs.”
The mission now? Pull off 20 million successful extractions against Illuminate. Think of it like chipping away at this giant invisible health bar. And yeah, let’s not forget avenging Eagleopolis. I swear, the game’s subreddit might be a mix of grief and, um, some intense SEAF fan art. Let’s not unpack that.
So, shedding tears for Eagleopolis? Feel free to vent below. Or, you know, draw your own Helldiver fan art—no judgment here.
