The community for this game is very active and is always looking for new ways to spread democracy throughout the galaxy.

Thanks to a Reddit post, a new strategy has been developed to distract a very powerful enemy of the Automaton army.

New Ways of Spreading Democracy With Helldivers 2

The difficulty is one of the main features of Helldivers 2, as the players enjoy the challenging missions with the different enemies. Terminids and Automatons occupy the majority of planets, and Helldivers have to drop their occupation to zero on the planets to liberate and spread democracy.

This can work the other way around, and the enemies could occupy the whole planet without any chance of getting back there. Some Reddit players have made new strategies on how to beat some very hard enemies.

Reddit’s user, SugarLuger, has posted a story about a match with a low-level player who has figured out how to distract the very powerful Hulk from the automatons. This particular enemy is very well armored, and low-level weapons cannot damage the armor of this robot.

This player distracts the enemy by getting close and making it run in circles until a more powerful party member comes to the rescue. Once you reach a certain level, new kinds of projectiles and weapons can help pierce the armor of the Automatons.

Some players did not agree with this, and some examples of this could go wrong. But the majority agree with this possibility, especially with the low-level players that want to be on harder missions and have improved weapons and stratagems to beat new objectives. Fans are always eager for new challenges, and Helldivers 2 is evolving very quickly with new horizons and future content.

The missions in the game have a shared progression among all the players to liberate planets and destroy enemies. 

In the future, Helldivers 2 will add new vehicles and weapons for spreading democracy throughout the galaxy. The game has no official roadmap or specific content releases, but some changes are coming soon with the popularity of the title.

I'm a big fan of movies and videogames in general. I really love Pokémon and Godzilla. One of my favorite games is The Last of Us, Part II. A compelling and well-written story is always welcome.
