PICTURE THE SCENE: four soldiers make a desperate scramble for their dropship on an alien planet, pursued by enormous, dagger-clawed bugs. Machine gun fire rattles, green goo erupts, the landing pad teems with beasts as the quartet piles through the boarding hatch, and their ride blasts off at the last available second. It could be a Hollywood action sequence, but in Helldivers 2, it's merely the end of another mission.
