Eagleopolis Falls Despite Helldivers 2 Players Defeating 2.5 Billion Squids, Leaving Six Mega Cities to Defend Super Earth

Alright, here goes nothing:

So, do you want the good stuff or the bad stuff first? Anyway, let’s start with the kind-of-good-news, I guess. Helldivers 2, you know, managed to pull off a win in the battle for Super Earth. They’re saying over two billion, yep billion, Illuminates got the boot. But, fun twist? Eagleopolis—the big deal city—still went down. Yeah. Ouch.

Even with a horde of Helldivers jumping in (like an Olympic-sized pool of them, honestly), those Illuminate creatures just kept coming. Poor Eagleopolis is now like a postcard from apocalypse central. Not that I’m crying (okay, maybe a little). If you’re feeling bummed too, go hug your SEAF buddy. Maybe watch some dude surf a Leviathan? Beats sulking, right?

And about that first defense thing? The Helldivers did hit their big target with that Heart of Democracy update—2.5 billion Illuminate, check! Sounds like a major win? But then Arrowhead was all like, “Nah, not quite.”

“Eagleopolis is toast,” they said. First shopping centers and now this? Yikes. So uh, if Super Earth doesn’t hold it together, we’re looking at more cities going kaput.

Sure, one down, six mega cities to go. All hope’s not lost, I guess? War isn’t pretty, but it’s still a step towards clearing out those Illuminate hordes, or scaring them off to their corner of space.

Arrowhead’s all serious—says the Illuminate fleet is still nearly half at 49%. So, we gotta dig in, folks! Helldivers and SEAF, must stick together, whether it’s day, night, or whatever; because more cities falling? A hard nope. Once they’re out, no take-backs, unfortunately.

This new plan? Get 20 million successful mission extracts. Apparently, that’ll damage this invisible ‘fleet health bar’ or something. Not to mention, avenge good ol’ Eagleopolis. Maybe, after they’re done fan-art-ing their SEAF buddies on Reddit. Seriously, some of those posts? A bit much.

Anyway, crying super tears for Eagleopolis? Spill it all out below!
