Personal Orders in Helldivers 2 Are Officially More 'Personal' – But They Cost Money

Because of how stagnant it is. Helldiver 2 It's no surprise that even the most minor changes are noticeable between updates and unlocking Warbond content. For example, despite the content being incredibly fun on the level 10 Super Helldive difficulty loop, there haven't been any major changes to the game in terms of meta loadouts. Helldiver 2's booster meta is also fundamentally regressive. Four boosters have a clear and overwhelming advantage over the others. And speaking of what the player is trying to accomplish in the moment, the main command is still the culmination of short-term gameplay goals.

On the other hand, private orders were supervised in the following cases: Helldiver 2 For a while. I was hoping the PO would be more specific and tailored to niche gameplay challenges. At least semi-regularly, when I was cutting back on Terminids, Automatons, and Illuminate in miscellaneous missions to keep the game from feeling too monotonous, Arrowhead suddenly blessed us with something else. Unfortunately, I've only just realized that this particular PO may not be beneficial overall. Actually, I like that diversity in gameplay is encouraged, but I could have been out of turn talking about how poorly designed PO is.

most recent Helldiver 2 Personal Orders have players drawn from successful missions three times, which goes back to the typical Personal Orders methodology and suggests that specific POs may not be prevalent or continuous.

Helldivers 2's niche personal spells are back, but are they a good thing?

Personal spells are generally uninteresting and therefore lacking in content. For example, players will regularly be tasked with:

  • Complete 6 optional objectives

  • Extracted 3 times upon successful mission (current personal order)

  • Successfully extracted with 10 common samples

  • Successful extraction with 5 rare samples

This doesn't make it inherently bad PO work, but it's not creative at all. Part of the fun of old and rare PO is that you have to take down certain enemies using firearms that may not be in your wheelhouse. Optionally, you can also diversify the gameplay a bit with 15 incentives. Helldiver 2Warbond Medal. Now PO is so basic that as long as you do some duties on the spot, you can achieve it without any doubt without even trying or knowing what PO is.

To be fair, it's entirely possible that you've had better PO's sprinkled all over the place lately, and you haven't noticed because you've simply chosen not to care too much about it anymore. It wasn't until last PO that I found out they were making a comeback, so it would be neat to see if they would become a permanent fixture or not.

As mentioned, there is no indication that PO is being overhauled. But what I didn't expect was that these subtle, carefully selected tasks would require me to withdraw from someone I love. Helldiver 2 The anti-tank meta isn't about replacing a weapon I despise wielding with a must-have weapon in my core build, much less one.

I think my preconceived notion that the PO should be more specific came from not having a clear idea of ​​what build I liked until 400 hours ago. Helldiver 2And it occurred to me today that the PO's being a ladle from a plain trough may have been the best course of action after all.

The reason I say this is because you can just mindlessly achieve PO to get 15 War Mark Medals. But if you want 15 Warbond medals and your PO forces you to use weapons you hate and actively search for and kill enemy units, I can see this as more effort than it's worth for the rewards we could freely and carelessly obtain.

furthermore, Helldiver 2’s built-in weapon customization capabilities, so you may not need any other reason to experiment with weapons you wouldn’t touch under any other circumstances. Ultimately, I'm wondering how PO can be adjusted, and it will be interesting to see what difference their approach makes for me when it comes time to grind for my upcoming medal.
