After several missed opportunities, Helldivers 2 players are about to unlock Anti-Tank Mines. That is, as long as we can avoid murdering a specific number of enemies.
In Helldivers 2, the player base eagerly awaits Major Orders, military commands from Super Earth. The entire community then bands together to complete these goals. Since February, the leadership of Super Earth has asked us to do lots of wild things, like open up a black hole or storm Automaton space to cleanse the galaxy of murder robots. But one recent Major Order is quite unusual, as it actively discourages murder.
Developer Arrowhead Game Studios are dangling the Anti-Tank Mine upgrade in front of players, a Strategem that has evaded Helldivers again and again. The only catch? Players have to not hit a certain kill count.
Major Orders can award new toys called Stratagems, which are tactical tools such as weapons, backpacks, resupplies, or orbital bombardments for use in-game. But so far Anti-Tank Mines have remained elusive.
In point of fact, this is player’s fourth shot at unlocking Anti-Tank Mines. The first Major Order that offered them as a potential reward yielded Airburst Rocket Launchers instead, which players chose en masse due to its strength against pernicious Automaton ships.
