The Major Order that Helldivers 2 have been plugging away at for the past couple of days is definitely proving to be an interesting one. The latest development in it seems to hint at some fresh weaponry from the first Helldivers potentially being incoming. If you're out of the loop, the MO has tasked folks with holding on to the planet X-45 , so the ruins of a "lost Advanced Weapons Lab from the First Galactic War", which was "working on development of a powerful interplanetary battle station" prior to it falling into disrepair, can be excavated.
As you can imagine, that's gotten the ol' divers pretty interested. As they work on doing just that, players have gotten a fresh strategic update, which reads as follows: "The first layer of rubble covering the advanced weapons lab on X-45 has been cleared. Initial reports show show the facility remains largely intact.
"It is possible there is even a cache of still-functional weaponry from the First Galactic War contained in the lab. Further excavation efforts are ongoing." So, there you go, something besides the station to get excited about, though it seems that excitements also come with a tidal wave of memes about Anti-Tank Mines.
You see, among the folks posting about how they'd like Arrowhead to give them the M2016 Constitution that was dished out in Helldivers 1 to celebrate Liberty Day in 2016 or a LAS-13 Trident, there are a bunch that reckon this retro weaponry could well just be the anti-tank mines they're not too fussed ab.
