Helldivers 2’s best new stratagem is the dumbest thing I’ve ever seen, but holy Liberty, it can wipe out armies in seconds

The headline-dominating highlight of the recent Omens of Tyranny update for Helldivers 2 was the arrival of the long-awaited Illuminate faction, with developer GSC Game World shadow dropping the Democracy-hating squiddies during The Game Awards and kicking off a brutal invasion of Calypso (against all odds, we managed to repelled it). As fantastic as the Illuminate is, though, I’d also like to bring attention to one of the patch’s other additions — one that has rapidly become one of my favorite stratagems in the entire game, and also an S-tier pick to use in both Automaton and base defense missions.

The STALKER mod of my dreams is here, and adds something even STALKER 2 doesn’t have: Co-op multiplayer

After finishing a comprehensive play session lasting over 100 hours on GSC Game World’s latest open-world survival shooter, STALKER 2, I am thrilled to express that it surpasses my expectations as an ideal sequel – larger in scale, more daring, and boasting a captivating atmosphere. The game offers enticing exploration opportunities and impressive modern firearm combat. Despite the current issues with A-Life 2.0 AI system, it stands out as one of the top games for Xbox and Windows PC in 2024. Regrettably, what I’ve yearned for since my initial experience with the original STALKER trilogy remains absent: cooperative multiplayer gameplay.
