A random participant and I are surrounded by big, alien bugs who need to rip out our guts and eat our bones. We try to destroy their nest, which lies in a rocky crater on some backwater alien planet. Low on ammo, out of well being objects, and not sure of what to do subsequent, it appears we’re screwed. However that is Helldivers 2—we have now highly effective instruments at our disposal, like a large airstrike or auto-turret. My squadmate calls in his airstrike earlier than I can, runs into the fray, drops it at his toes, and begins tossing grenades. “Get outta right here! I’m taking ‘em with me!” he yells. I dive over an offended insect the scale of a canine and skitter out of the crater, explosions and gunfire popping off behind me. Then there may be one large increase. I flip round. He did it. He saved the day, killed two dozen bugs, and destroyed their vile nest. — Zack Zwiezen
