If you've been cruising around the Terminid border planets in Helldivers 2 lately, you might've noticed something weird about the planet Meridia: It's green. Not unheard of in this particular galaxy, but you've gotta understand that Meridia used to be a beautiful shade of blue broken up by fluffy white clouds. It's one of the prettiest locales I've visited in Helldivers 2, or, it was until a few days ago.
Earlier this week, a new patch dropped that came with a monumental major order to turn off the Terminid Control System towers going haywire on the border planets. The "Termicide" gas that divers were led to believe would control the spread of the Terminids in the galaxy has had the opposite effect, exploding the population of bugs on Erata Prime, Fenrir III, and Turing. At the center of it all is Meridia.
