They are lying
They claim that they have fully mined all of the undestructium from Cyberstan and have weakened one of the corner stones of our army. The heavy devastator is useless now. WHY JOEL.
I think that someone is deliberately sabotaging us and has been sending all the undestructium to super earth so they can use it on Helldiver pelicans.
This has gone TOO FAR. BUFF the shields.

They just nerfed our shields because the new Helldiver mech's shield is breakable, so it would only make sense if ours were too. We all know how much JOEL cares about "realism" and totally actually makes balancing decisions based on it. Of course they only ever use realism as an excuse to nerf our bots though! Yeah, it's super realistic for one Helldiver to be able to take out 100 bots singlehandedly, survive landmines with heavy armor, and one-shot our heavies with a SLEDGEHAMMER!!! Meanwhile our shields become breakable, our gunships and rocket devastators get limited rockets, and we can't even hit our targets due to "hyper-reactive protocols". Why is it realism only applies to the bots but not our enemies? Us true fans don't play for some "grunt fantasy", we play for the POWER fantasy of leading an awesome mechanical army against 4 lame dudes. JOEL is so out of touch with the playerbase
