Helldivers 2features Major Orders that rotate at set periods of time. These orders are generally larger, more expansive goals set for all players to work together to achieve. The previous Major Order involved rescuing civilians and completing aDefense Campaign against Automaton invasion forces— unfortunately, even though Helldivers put up a valiant effort, the Campaign was ultimately lost, with only 7 out of 8 planets defended during the Defense Campaign’s set window. CouldGame Master Joelbe to blame?

Helldivers 2
Major Order Objectives & Rewards
The new Major Order is, quite simply, to liberate Veld. This dense jungle planet is home to beautiful vistas, complete with thick vegetation, a gorgeous skybox featuring the planet’s cerulean rings and several moons in orbit…oh, and a deep-seated Terminid infestation.
Major Order Briefing
Veld was determined clear of Terminid presence months ago, but it appears a subterranean hive eluded detection, and has ben gestating undemocratic vermin for weeks. Now the spawn have erupted, creating a massive outbreak that threatens to engulf the entire planet if we do not act quickly.
Contain the outbreak now, before the bugs are able to spread further.
Major Order Reward
The reward for liberating Veld within the set time limit will be a whopping45 Medals.
Medalsare used to acquireweapons,Emotes, and gear from Warbonds (Helldivers 2’s version of a Battle Pass).
When Does The Major Order End?
Unlike the previous multi-week Defense Campaign, the Liberate Veld Major Order lasts only for a few days — no doubt due to the comparative simplicity of liberating a single planet vs completing 8 planetary defenses.

Active Effects On Veld
Veld currently only has a single Effect active, and it’s actually a good one —Weapon Experimentation. This means all Helldivers, regardless of the Stratagems equipped before starting a mission, will have access to theEagle Napalm Airstrike Stratagem. This Stratagem is extremelyeffective at burning Terminidsout from their nests and works beautifully in the jungles of Veld, where visibility is low.
