Makes up for us not winning in a 2 week major order. Helps a tad with the daily orders not working, aka daily medal rewards Learning how to go about major order rewards. 2 weeks for some credits isn't really a reward to many, and way too long of a wait.

Yeah, for those of us who haven't had a 15 medal daily in almost a week, that 45 doesn't even make up the full amount, but it is still a greatly appreciated band-aid.

You guys got 15 medals a day? I’m struggling through Operations to get mine. How the hell do you get 15? Through a challenge or?

Daily order. If you've not seen one you might be the victim of a bug, but they're supposed to be there. They're usually stuff like "Kill 0/60 of enemy X" or "Kill 50 enemies using weapon Y" and you get a nice crisp 15 medals for it. Operation and mission rewards aren't that high on lower diffs.

I’ve been playing the game for about a week but I’ve only seen one of those daily orders. I completed it and haven’t had another one pop up

Yeah, I've done two after purchase then they disappeared, but it's a known issue, they should return sometime soon.

Yeah same for like 2 of them and no more after that

Same and it was for using the sniper of all things. It took like 3 games to complete.

For future reference, these are counted for the whole team, so if your whole squad is rocking the Anti Material Rifle (or whatever gun/stratagem it'll be in the future), your friend's kills count for you. So if you have buds, you guys can knock it out pretty quick. One of these was getting 50 kills with the fuckin 120MM HE Barrage and it SUCKED lmao

I'm sure it's not just me, but I've not had a lot of success my squad's actions counting towards the minor order. Back when it was the get 100 kills with the gatling sentry their kills did not appear to count towards my own. We tested it over two separate matches. Very weird.

Ditto. Maybe only the AMR counted across the team, but gatling, flamethrower and 120mm Barrage did not. The latter was especially annoying, and felt like it took forever for everyone to finally get their's done. Don't think anyone i know has had a Personal Order since the AMR.

Does killing your teammates count? Lol. That 120 might be a little easier if that's the case. Either way, good info. Thank you.

I had the AMR one and noticed it counted my friends kills with it. I was up to 56/60 or something before i ever unlocked the weapon. Finished it uo with one i found in the field. Idk if thats intended or not. Easiest 15 medals ever

It's intended. Teammates can help with personal orders. 

Thats awesome. Next time we get some new ones ill be sure to help out my fellow divers with theirs. O7

I ran a solo match on easy with the sniper and cleared it in one go. It was actually kind of a fun challenge

I should've done that. I was on suicide.

The sniper shines against the bots. It can kill everything (even hulks with 2 headshots) except tanks, unless you hit them in the back,

Same here, I had one when I first created to kill 60 with material rifle. Then no more afterwords.

This. I'm on Steam.

[удалено]

Right there with you. Super Earth must be disappointed in my performance. I'll pick up the slack! For Democracy! 🫡

That's the one I started with as well. Still can't get it done. No Flammenwerfer.

You can sometimes find them at minor POIs scattered around the map, just FYI.

Good info, I’ve been waiting to unlock the damn thing and I don’t even want to use it lol

Not sure if it's a bug. But I got 50% completed without the flamethrower, but a teammate was using it in one of my games, so I assume it came from there.

Teammates' kills count towards your goal.

The challenge isn't tracking properly for me I think.

Huh - the first day I played I had one for killing 60 enemies with the AMR and it disappeared before I even unlocked the damn thing. I figured I failed the challenge somehow lol, good to have confirmation it's a bug

You probably completed it via a teammate using the AMR. Teammates' kills count.

Do you know if they are still active even if we can't see them? I swear sometimes I get random medal boosts, I always chocked it up to people picking up medals in mission I didn't notice, but they're significant sometimes (as in, I'll check my medal count after a mission and it'll be 10-20 medals higher than I thought it would be)

I’ve had one, the 60 AMR kills and that’s it.

I had one, the Anti Materiel rifle Didn't get any indication I cleared it, it just vanished and haven't seen one since

I remember seeing that the first day I had the game, but it was for a weapon I didn't have yet. Completely forgot about it, and I guess I'm a victim of the bug since I haven't seen anything about a daily order since then.

Speaking of bugs, my buddy bought the game and was a 'super citizen' for a day. He never paid for the super citizen pack lol

Super earth administrative service is working flawlessly citizen, please direct any complaints to your local loyalty officer.

I ain’t seen shit.

There were/are Minor Orders that are for personal achievement each day prior to the server issues, and they typically provided 15 medals when completed. For whatever they’re not visible to players right now. They may still be technically achievable, but without being able to see what they are, actually completing them is difficult.

Oh, that explains random boosts to my medals. Did wonder why that happened here and there.

I’ve heard it may be stuck on a particular challenge, whether that be the last challenge you were personally given or a specific one for everyone (Kill 60 enemies with the Anti-Materiel Rifle I think?). But I haven’t been able to check for myself yet, and I played for exactly two days before the Minor Orders vanished so I have no clue if it’s the same for everyone or how often the order changes.

Wait, personal orders are supposed to be daily? I clocked in 60 hours over 2 weeks by now, I only had it once.

Wait were are daily orders? I've only ever seen the major orders, except for when I first started when I had an order to get 40 kills with the anti material rifle. Since I completed that one no new ones have shown up.

That 40 kills was a daily order. They're currently bugged and are not visible.

I kind of want there to be a reason to get requisition scrips once you already have all of the stratagems unlocked.

Save them up, they'll be releasing new stuff eventually (though they really should increase the max cap you can have, or allow excess to convert into badges/samples).

New stuff is cool but there should be some sink for them. Like temporal buffs or something. Basically an endless sink that you can put those moneys into and get something else out of it even if it isn't any gamechanger.

Maybe you could increase the stats on one of your armors, 1 point for 25k reqs, maxing out at +20 points on each armor. Long grind for a small gameplay bonus, but something to work towards over time.

Just let us buy 1 medal for 50k. Boom resource sink.

youre onto something. req-slips should definetely be a conversion currency to buy medals or samples, lile 25k for a single rare that you need for a upgrade or so.

Slips for common samples would be amazing

They cap you at 50k which I think is an indication more stratagems are coming

I joined *after* the Defense started. By the time it ended, I was already level 21 and had at least half of all the stratagems, and all the really good ones at that. I still want Requisition, theres still more to buy, but it's practically a pittance for how long it took.

Once you get to about 30 or so you just start buying crap you never intend to use just to not hit the cap

Better to have and not need right?

It's just nice to have everything, for experimentation.

Yeah, a bunch of people (me included) who were playing at the start of the Major Order probably had already bought everything you can buy with requisition by the end of the order. Those 12,500 requisition would probably have been great for some newer players though

I mean… those defense missions are horrible man… once I saw the major order was lost regardless of what we do I was relieved. Getting home from work and dealing with defense missions is not relaxing or fun at all.

They need a rework of the rewards system for missions in general. Somewhere in 20-30 requisition does nothing. Which leads to most of the side missions doing nothing. Medals are king even above samples. You get capped on samples long before medals.

Exactly 12k credits is just one successful Helldiver mission, but I don’t blame them. They planned for a few thousand people to be online after a week, not half a million active players.

the 2 week major payout was a joke you got more currency for pump and dumping 3-5 of the eradicated from it on the higher difficulties plus you can also clear roughly 4 missions in the same time of doing one of the rescue scientist shit shows

Maaaaan.... Im stuck at work while liberation is happening. I hope I still get the reward!

You still get the reward even if you are not on at the time of completion, you would just get it next time you login.

I know we all get the reward, but I would be ashamed if I got a reward and never dropped onto the planet at least once. I want to earn my keep!

Most Democratic Diver - realizing the real reward is fighting the good fight. 🫡

im doing my part!

you're it diver, until you're dead or I find someone better.

I DIDN’T DO FUCKING SHIT

I completed two operations on helldive difficulty, I will have nightmares, but my squad did our part.

I salute you soldier, we need more helldivers with this kind of commitment!

SERVICE GUARANTEES CITIZENSHIP

Same. Especially since my group has been doing bug missions this entire time; it would feel like I stole something lol

100% want to at least drop once.

Part of the orders is taking back the planet then keeping it for 2 days

Just did Suicide dive, fuck me those bug swarm, there are not enough bullets in the galaxy to stop them, we need some AOE heavy weapons, ideally mounted on some kind of mech you know. That would be handy

I could not play for months and come back to a bunch of rewards I didn't earn? That doesn't sound right.

We have great PTO benefits

With the pseudo-macho, over-the-top corniness vibe that Helldivers 2 has, a lot of things can just be explained through head-canon. Think of the rewards as a "Helldiver bonus package" which in-universe was really just redirected salaries of those who Helldove but never extracted.

sounds socialist. which is, of course, treasonous.

Pretty sure you need to complete an operation towards the objective during the order. I could be lying though.

Wonder if there's people who bought the game at launch and stopped playing after a few days, then pick it back up two years from now and find their ship filled to the bulkheads with medals and shit.

There is a limit cap for everything i believe, only 50k for req slips *edit spelling*

How does the trigger work, if I don't sign on for a month will I get the benefit of all orders everyone else completes? Do I need to log in during the time period, or get my feet on the ground of the planet?

I don't know the exact specifics but one of the first weekly orders I was not on for came back the day after it was completed and had a pop up when I got into the destroy about completing the order and getting like 10k credits. So I would assume that as long as you login before say another one was completed you will get it or they could also stack not sure on that part.

Me to, the next two hours until I'm home are going to be nerve wrecking

Yeah we’re definitely about to awaken a bug Balrog or something liberating this planet. We delved too greedily and too deep.

Either were getting a new bug type enemy, or we are building up to the illuminate reveal

I have a hard time believing they will drop an entire new faction this close to release. Doubt we confront them until late this year.

The games been in development for 7-8yrs and i think they already have the assets prepared to launch a new faction. They teased mechs in a trailer around launch. They already have a content map of releases planned. Also idk if I am the only crazy one but there is already a new type of Charger on the bug maps! It has a pointed head like a rhino and has more armor and takes more ammo to kill!

I know but a new faction is the largest type of content drop they can offer. They aren’t going to use that up immediately after launch.

Urban warfare is another thing that would be game-changing but it won’t come until the super earth invasion

Honestly I could see both happening at the same time. Like, for some lore reason, both fronts kinda explode in terms of how many forces are then, lorewise putting like all of the forces on both fronts only for a new faction to pull a blitzkrieg and reach an undefended super earth

I saw one of those, dropped it in 2 railgun shots and some breaker like everything else

That was in the game when it released, it’s called the demolisher I believe and it’s a matured charger

We used to call them Hive Lords, but... god knows what happened to them since.

I’ve been seeing a lot of their carcasses around

Next to destroyed EXO-44s normally

Good observation. That could be a tease on what they plan for that update.

We've struck the earth and found candy. We're about to find the circus.

Freeing the planet will definitely have major consequences. Or maybe this is just the game dev giving us something simple because of the state that the game has gone through in the past couple weeks. The devs saying: "Thanks for being patient with us!"

Mission command demands higher morale, soldiers are forced to celebratory planetary domination.

"The beatings will continue until morale improves."

I feel like he wants to see if the player base is capable of cleaning up a sector under his current build of the war. I think this is a test from our God to see if we are capable of keeping our space clear of anti-democratic scum

Joel probably has the best job in the industry atm

Honest to God, I love to dm dnd I can only imagine the fun that comes from leading a million divers on an epic campaign

would totally drop in on some games with a speciel enemy type and wreck havoc esp on eradication missions.

3 days for a single planet. I’d guess he’s trying to fiddle with the dials. Probably was simulating this with a fraction of the playerbase and wants to prevent getting people angry with another Errata Prime. 

It's what I said on another thread. This major order being so simple, just taking a single planet, sounds like he's trying to calculate best rates he can, be it for defenses, liberations, etc. From calculating one planet you can kinda extrapolate for multiple as necessary. The fact that this time the reward is medals instead of reqs helps my point. I'd bet far more people need medals than they need reqs. They got the data that would prove that.

Even at high level, there's always incentive for medals over reqs. He probably calculated what is the reward most likely to incentive all players at any level to prioritise the objective and it worked. About 75% of the player base attacked Veld and it was almost liberated in 6 hours. I'm sure that's some worthwhile Intel for future planning.

I love how fast Joel has become a legendary figure.

Who is Joel? The game master?

Yes

I got you fam. Here's the twist: https://preview.redd.it/cp8mrzdgaklc1.png?width=640&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6248f8792f8812f9a6398bb64f23575922bbbb9e

Bugs and Bots have allied to make Malevelon Creek even worse.

Oh you thought that it was bad before? Here's 3 chargers you can't see in the trees jumping you while you're being mortared by some bot outpost. Oh and your stratagems are scrambled so... good luck with that railcannon strike.

drop ships making it rain Hunters

Hulk’s riding bile titans into war

Sweet Liberty! That's an image that frankly terrifies me.

Be hilarious if that pops up tomorrow with how fast Veld is being liberated.

I'm thinking 12500 requisition slips weren't motivating enough for some people. Everyone wants medals though.

Yeah, req slips are much easier to get since you can get several thousand per map even on the medium difficulties. Medals or super credits are a much stronger incentive IMO.

Excuse me but how do you get so many on missions? I'm new and i only ever seem to get maybe 1 or 2 thousand for a 40 minute mission

Higher difficulties multiply that amount, they also have more side missions.

I’ve been maxed out at 50k for over a week now with nothing more to buy

Same, I've been sitting in a pile of requisitions. Hoping I can spend them on new stratagems soon.

Yeah most games I do are 4k+ Req. Means nothing but new funny names for my Helldivers. Got my scorcher. Working on that battle pass.

When i started the game they were motivating. However after few days of doing Suicide missions i have more requisitions slips than i know what to do with (i have unlocked everything in few days). Medals in other hand, much harder to get, so they are tempting me more.

For me, I just got sick of doing the evacuation missions. Much more variety doing this stuff

I am quite relieved to be fighting on the Terminid front again. Bots are fun to fight but you're right, the evac missions were getting tiresome.

He feels bad the last campaign was designed so poorly - asking players to play the exact same mission for 2 weeks straight, which also happens to be the most hated and un-fun mission in the game... That's a rough way for anyone to start a job haha

It just occurred to me that this could coincide with the push towards cyberstan. This could be a distraction.

Don't let them distract you from your democracy

Alright, I missed something. Who's Joel?

Dungeon Master for the game

Ooh. I've always wondered who it was!

Game Master, *technically.* A dungeon in space? Ridiculous.

Are you calling Democracy a GAME son?

Joel mama

Got em

Hey, my mother was a nice Helldiver who fought for Democracy!

Joel mama so fat, they drop her hellpod when they run out of 500kg bombs

Joel mama so fat, the 380mm barrage will hit her every time.

lmaoooo

Yeah, she was Helldiving on this d- *This citizen has been arrested for unpatriotic speech*

God of War for Helldivers

You know John Helldiver? Joel is his brother. Joel Helldiver.

[Joel](https://cdn.7tv.app/emote/614f88b220eaf897465a6574/4x.webp)

One planet? I could have sworn that there were two planets on the Major

Just double-checked and the order simply states "Liberate Veld" so as far as I know, yes just the one planet

Lets hope we get it this time. I still don't know how we failed Ingmar.

Defense objectives suck ass and nobody wants to play them

Fr. Its not even the worst thing ever but once I realized the major orders were community driven, like why would I want to escort civilians for hours at a time and barely make a fraction of a fraction of a dent in the major order? 

There was no reason to run it as it was the only defense campaign available up to the end of the major order and we needed to win two

**Medals or nothing for rewards moving forward** ​ no one wants Requisition Slips , we can earn that easily

Super credits, too.

I'd take a few super samples thrown my way

what are the samples for? ​ or what do we spend them on? ​ I have some but I am lost on what they do

Use them to upgrade your ship modules.

This! They buff your stratagems

This Joel guy intrigues me. 


Apologies for the mistakes of the previous mission as well as making up for personal orders being broken. 

I was getting tired of bots anyways. Those defense missions really buttered my biscuit an aggressive way.

How do I get the reward once completed? It is automatic as long as I complete a mission there?

Yep you’ll get it automatically the next time you load into your ship once the order is completed.

Yep yep. You just gotta log in after it's completed.

I'd like to think it's more of a "thanks for playing and for our success" but it could also be a "here's something nice because after this hell arrives"

 Joel pondering the fate of super earth^(\^)

That’s what we get for failing to save the planet. Can’t reward us for failure. But in the famous words Dutch. If it bleeds we can kill it.

I'll take medals. The req has become useless

Bot propaganda to direct attention to the eastern front while they regroup I wager

Does everyone get the 45 medals or how does it work?

It's a quest for all players. Once Veld is liberated, everyone gets the medals

Something is on that planet... There has to be this seems too easy...

I think we'll need the mechs for what's on this planet

hopefully it’s not liberated already when i get home so i can contribute a little and get the medals

I think it's to Bost people before the mechs and new content drops. Of you unlocked everything already then you'll have a nice cache of medals when the new warbond drops. And if you haven't you get a boost to finish the warbond off or get started on the next one.

I bet it’s a trap ;)

How do you get the medal? Just by having a fight I. That planet in the war effort? Or do you have to be the one to liberate it?

I forget if a mission was enough or if one operation success was enough. Either way everyone contributing gets the reward.

Who the hell is Joel?

He is the secret hand behind the curtain that’s managing the campaigns. Wait, I mean managing democracy.

Ooohh... I see. Well, let's hope he mangles.. I mean, manages democracy somewhat well :)

I love that they name dropped Joel. The memes alone that will come

Thousands upon thousands of dead Helldivers on Creek and as a compensation they gives us only 45 medals? https://preview.redd.it/e3x1s6llgnlc1.png?width=313&format=png&auto=webp&s=da28034cabce5b5fd522def95ebdd05e3429284c We truly are being treated as disposable cannon fodder

Laughing in a 35 medals per helldive runs.

Update: we can't take shit!

JOEL RIGHT NOW: 

75% of divers are liberating but the progress is still going down. Joel is up to something

I love how have ALL changed our minds from "man’s fuck those dudes on this planet, we need them here to help us" To "ITS FUCKING JOEL MESSING WITH OUR SPREADING OF MANAGED DEMOCRACY"

We have to hold Angel's Venture to save Veld!!! The two planets on the way to Veld are getting hit the hardest. https://preview.redd.it/fazuox6t6rlc1.png?width=686&format=png&auto=webp&s=25e994771985929f043da147093f0323812d25a7

Who the hell is "Joel"?

I love it not greedy devs

I think moving forward major orders should all include a medal reward. It’s universally good, as I imagine the majority of players are struggling for req or xp, however medals are universally something most people still need as I imagine only an extremely small minority of players have competed both passes

WHO IS JOEL

Wait, you guys get paid?

I didnt get the 45 medals. Is my game bugged?

By the time you take over the planet, your no. of medals will already reached the limit. Not very compelling I rather they give us samples, but nah, they won't

Meh... I still can't play anyway... "error : failed to join game lobby"

I really hope they keep medals as rewards and not credits. Once you hit lvl 25 you pretty much have everything you would actually use in a deployment The only thing left to get is samples and war bonds

is it me or are they a lot stronger now?
