It's good to see 227K (Steam + PS5) Helldivers defend the heart of Managed Democracy. Together we will defeat the cultist squids and their autocratic ways.

Mars has been razed by the Illuminate. All Helldiver Training Sites across the planet, where rigorous, thorough, and safe training of the Galaxy's Elite has long occured, have been destroyed. The expert and seasoned facility PA operators who facilitated the training died defending the planet.
Fortunately, Helldiver training has already been relocated to another undisclosed planet.

Obvious cheating/exploiting whatever you want to call it. When someone calls down twenty-eleven stratagems in a matter of seconds. And we can't even report it?

We are performing an update to our backend logic that will change the way "impact" is dealt. Impact is the "liberation" that players deal to enemy planets or defend events. It used to be that Helldivers needed to complete an operation (usually 3 missions) in order for impact to be distributed.
Now, each mission will deal impact, and completing an operation will then deal bonus impact. This is primarily done to make sure that everyone performing missions can safely say that they have contributed to keeping the galaxy safe, without the need to have the operation complete.
Hopefully this will make the system easier to understand, and the casual diver who only has time for a mission a day can still effectively help the war effort.
Primaries level up from use, unlocking customization options in different slots. Slot availability varies by gun. It looks like all weapons have skins (great for the fashion game). The slots I've found so far include:
sights (different sights to taste, or trade off zoom <> ergonomics)
muzzle (recoil patterns mostly)
grip (recoil <> ergonomics/laser/flashlight)
magazine (capacity <> ergonomics/reload speed)
Looks fun! I kinda wish we could slot a bayonet but I can see why they would keep that exclusive

This is part of the on-going ARG, the footage was "leaked" by dissident @Major_Truth_ here
Some other tweets of theirs if you don't use twitter:
They have multiple posts complaining about the sky on Super Earth being weird and the sun looking different as well.
Please report to your Democracy Officer if you think this footage is real or if you believe the Illuminate are somehow still in our galaxy.
